Leon and Erin leave the council chamber and they part ways on Manor Avenue, Leon of course goes to Clement's residence, while Erin promises Jeff to count the recent expenses of the manor with him.

"Then I'm sorry for you," the young man said with a smile.

The girl didn't speak, just looked at him deeply, and then turned away with a smile on her lips.

Li Ang pondered for a long time, and found that the meaning in the other party's eyes seemed to be quite rich, which was really difficult for him to guess, so he had to give up this effort.

He came to the residence that belonged to Clement, and just as he was about to knock on the door, the door was already "clicking" open.

"Oh, young lord, I've been waiting for you for a long time," Clement's gentle voice came into his ears

Leon walked in slowly, and the door closed behind him.

"I'm sorry, I only returned to the manor yesterday, and I had a lot of things to deal with, so I delayed for a while," Leon replied as he looked at the changes in the room.

He had lived in this room for a few days, but now most of the familiar furnishings had disappeared in favor of a row of quaint bookcases, most of which were filled with thick books, as well as some strange objects, most of which had never been seen before by young people.

In addition, the ordinary bed in my impression was replaced by a large bed, and on the other side of the room, there was a sofa about two meters wide, and the sofa was covered with thick cashmere cushions. It looks luxurious and comfortable.

And the innermost part of the room is the desk, where the old man with gray curly hair is slowly closing a heavy book.

"Sure enough, the mages of Candle Castle love to enjoy it the most. And he's really not polite at all......" Looking at the room that had become extremely unfamiliar, Li Ang sighed with emotion in his heart.

"Please sit here," said the old man, smiling, taking off his round glasses on the bridge of his nose.

The tone and expression of his voice gave the young man the impression that Clement was the real master, and that he, the actual lord, was merely a guest.

Leon sat on the leather chair opposite the desk with mixed feelings, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Clement, I have brought the gems. ”

"So I have always believed in your abilities," exclaimed the old gentleman, "which ones, and how many?"

"Three of them are not available for the time being, and the rest are made up. ”

"Oh?" Clement blinked. He said, "You mean, you can find eighteen of the twenty-one gems, and the required number is fine?"

"Yes," Leon said lightly.

In fact, the gems on that list are the most precious in Leon's place. So he had already counted them and put them in a small bag. At this time, he took them out one by one and put them on the desk, and his mouth kept chattering.

"Ten azure agate, twenty lapis lazuli, ten pure white jade, thirty purple-veined jade......"

After a moment he sat back and said, "It's all here, you can take an inventory." ”

“...... No need," Clement looked away from the sparkling gemstones. Looking at the young man opposite again, he said slowly, "I have to say." You're even more capable than I ever imagined. ”

"It's okay, it just so happens that my grandfather's inheritance has what you need, so it's just a coincidence," the young man said with a rather modest attitude at the moment.

"So...... Earl Darren is such a hidden man......" Clement shook his head and laughed.

He had long known that what Leon said was just a pretext, and the young man himself understood this, but of course Clement would not say anything, but just tapped it lightly without pain.

"Ahem, I also think my grandfather and his old man are a little too plain," Leon said immediately.

"Huh...... What a funny little fellow," the old man looked at the young man's expression, and finally couldn't help but laugh.

Li Ang didn't feel embarrassed at all, he still maintained a fairly serious expression, and asked, "This money shouldn't be a small amount, you can settle it now?"

"Of course...... No," Clement said, "because I didn't expect you to be able to provide most of the gems on this list, so allow me two days in the meantime for you to take them back." ”

"Look at what you said, not to mention your identity, can I still not believe you just because you are Erin's teacher?" Leon said with a grin as he leaned back in his chair.

"Okay, then I'll put it away first," Clement swiped his palm on the table, and the gems disappeared instantly, and then he waved his arm again, and there was a high-waisted teapot and two cups on the table.

"Now that we're down to business, let's try the alpine black tea from Wolfland, which is their specialty, and it's rarely seen in the south. ”

Li Ang picked up the cup in front of him, took a sip, put it down gently, nodded and said, "The color is pure, the smell is fragrant, and the aftertaste is sweet, it is indeed very good." ”

"Oh, I didn't expect a young man like you to be so interested in tea," Clement was very pleased, "It's a pity that there is not much black tea left from the last time, and I will bring you some next time." ”

Leon immediately thanked him, and then they chatted a few more words, and seeing that the time was almost ripe, the young man asked, "Mr. Clement, I heard Erin say that if there is a chance in the future, Candlefort will build a mage tower for her?"

"Yes," Clement said, putting down his teacup, "as long as you become a core member, you will get this treatment, and I'm sure Erin will one day." ”

"I also believe it," Leon said with a smile, "but in fact, I have the same plan, so it can be regarded as a conflict." ”

"That's what I thought, since Erin is already a peripheral member of Candlecastle, and you should be able to see her yearning for Candlestick, so why don't you start now, I will contribute the funds, and Candlestick will provide technology and equipment to build a mage tower for her outside Campbell's manor, what do you think?"

Clement seemed to have guessed what Leon wanted to say, so he wasn't surprised at all, just looked at the young man with a smile and said, "A mage tower needs a solid wall made of special materials, a variety of complex secret magic circles inlaid with precious stones, and an alchemy device that requires a considerable amount of rare materials to be refined, the overall cost is not a small amount, in terms of the history of Candle Castle, there are no more than a hundred so far, do you really have this plan?"

"Of course," said Leon with considerable certainty, "money is not a problem, let alone ...... No matter how much the Mage Tower costs, it should be enough based on the value of those gems, right?"

Clement showed a sudden look, "You didn't ask about the specific value of those gems just now, it turned out that you had this idea......"

"Not really," said Leon, "because I've always felt that since you said that the purchase price would be higher than anywhere else, it wouldn't make me suffer, would you?"

"Of course not," Clement laughed, "I find that I like your character more and more." ”

"Okay, I can sue you now, I have accepted this Jianyì, and with Irene's talent and your support this time, Candle Castle will not refuse. ”

The old man stopped laughing and said, "However, there are many different types of mage towers, each with its own unique function, so the cost is different, and there may even be a big difference, and then I will try my best to find a professional to explain to you, and after you and Erin have determined the type, Candle Castle will send craftsmen to Campbell." ”

"Don't be so troublesome," said Leon, "the most expensive one, right?"

When he said this, the young man's face obviously flashed with a look called "the light of the local tyrant". (To be continued......)
