Chapter 14 Profit Driven

Lindsay felt like she was just a passerby.

The forest leylines are under attack, go back and tell the wizards that the matter here is over.

Everything that happens here has nothing to do with him in essence.

But on the way back, Lindsay saw a familiar figure.

Conch, the life scholar who came to him last night to find out the news, was sitting at the post station at the city gate at the moment, and he was accompanied by several other awakened people, all wearing the standard cloak of life scholars.

At this moment, these life scholars have gloomy expressions and are discussing something fiercely.

Lindsay silently adjusted the equipment slot, and then vaguely heard some conversation.

"This riot...... Coincidental? ”

"But...... Can't leave here...... Get things straight! ”

"Montenegro World ...... is the first ......"

The sound quickly faded away.

Alini, who was driving the carriage, did not greet the life scientists, and some of the sound was drowned out by the movement of the carriage.

Recalling what she heard, Lindsay probably had a guess as well.

The Life Scholars are the de facto governing force in Lookout.

The frequent forest riots clearly bothered them.

In this case, the work of sending people to the world of Montenegro was naturally affected, and it was not as smooth as before.

"Conch." Alini, who was in the carriage, lightly touched Lindsay's shoulder, and her tone was a little complaining, "That guy is a leader, and he likes to go to the market to trouble us." ”

Lindsay did not express his opinion immediately, but replied tentatively:

"I have the impression that businessmen generally contribute to the development of cities?"

Alini is not surprised by this:

"Yes, but we are also awakened, and we are inevitably looked down upon by some people."

In the carriage, the two soon returned to the northeastern city.

Alene sent Lindsay back to the door, and hurried back to the south side of the shopping street.

The riots in the forest can be a state of panic for the inhabitants of the city.

But for businessmen, it is not necessarily impossible to seize business opportunities.

On the other hand, Lindsay returned to the house with thoughts.

"Mr. Lindsay!" The moment she opened the door, Ruili jumped out of her chair, her wobbly hand, and a freshly sharpened plank, "How is it outside, is the city in trouble?" ”

Lindsey shook her head and said:

"No big deal."

"Lord Cosevillette has pacified the forest, and it should be all right now."

"It's good that the wizard is here." Ruili breathed a sigh of relief. On the top of her head, the pair of fluffy white ears belonging to the Chaluo Rabbit people finally relaxed from their nervous upright state: "Then I can rest assured." ”

Ruili pulled Lindsay to the antechamber of the cottage:

"I made a sink according to your request, do you think it's qualified?"

Plan where to place your plants in Lindsay.

The staggered planks have been neatly placed, and there is also the required sink underneath.

Lindsey poured some water and examined it.

Ruili's craftsmanship is outstanding.

Not only did her design fulfill Lindsay's requirements, but it also used some plug-in wooden troughs in between. In the future, if the needs change, this design leaves room for adjustment in advance.

"Ruili, you've done a really great job!"

Lindsey is not shy about compliments.

The Chaluo Rabbit Man also smiled shyly:

"You've won a prize."

"In return for your trust, I will definitely work hard!"

So to speak.

Lindsey also changed back to her tools and prepared to continue building her own hut.

Seeing this, Ruili took the initiative to ask about the next work:

"What do we do now?"

"Deal with the dining room and bedroom, and make a batch of cabinets as storage by the way."

"That's right, Mr. Lindsay. Your saw table is really very easy to use, can I go back and show this structure to other people so that they can imitate it? ”

"Of course no problem!"

“……”

Back at work, time passes a lot faster.

In the evening.

At the end of the day's work.

Ruili, who had eaten perfect food in the living room, left here with a confused look.

Lindsay, on the other hand, cleaned up her dirty clothes, and after tidying up, she went to the wizard's residence next door.

It is a simple one-story bungalow.

There is no extravagant architecture, no tasteful sculptures or decorations, and there is even a little dirt on the fence.

It's like a house everywhere in the countryside.

It is completely impossible to match the strength of the seventh-stage powerhouse.

“……”

Lindsey was silent.

He turned his head to see that he even spotted a bullpen nearby.

This hut is only inhabited by the old wizard, and there are no servants to serve, so the other party also takes care of the work of raising cattle?

The fence of the wizard's yard was open.

Lindsay walked straight in, calling and knocking on the door:

"Are you home, Lord Koseville?"

"Please come in!"

The wizard's old voice came from inside the room, and there was the movement of chair legs rubbing against the floor.

Lindsay stepped forward and pushed the door open.

The door is not locked, or it is not necessary.

Cosevillette sat in the living room, with two basins in front of him.

He washes some fresh berries in his hands, which are dark purplish-red and resemble acai berries.

The old wizard took the initiative to hand Lindsay a little:

"This is a freshly picked black-eyed plum, do you want to try it?"

Lindsey tasted some of it, and the fruit tasted sweet and sour.

Although it is not convenient to grow crops on a large scale, the forest world itself produces quite abundant resources.

The two said hello.

Lindsey quickly cut the topic to her own intentions:

"Lord Cosevillette, when there was a riot in the forest today, I also went out to check it out."

The old wizard nodded slightly:

"Did you find anything?"

Lindsay admitted:

"The leylines of the forest have been attacked by people, which is why today's problems are today."

“……”

The old wizard was silent for a few seconds before he spoke:

"I appreciate the information."

"But because of that, you're going to get in trouble next."

Lindsey truthfully stated her intentions:

"I have my own plans to do, and I will soon leave Cape Lookout City, and I will also leave the forest garden."

"Even if you don't interfere." A hint of a sigh flashed in the old wizard's cloudy eyes, "Some things can't be avoided. ”

Lindsay is confident of this:

"It doesn't matter, there's no way they'll keep me."

"And this matter has nothing to do with me, to be precise, they have no reason to provoke someone who plans to leave this world."

The old wizard just calmly pointed out one point:

"But Lindsay, you're from Montenegro."

Lindsay's expression changed instantly.

When he was reminded of this, he immediately realized what the problem was.

The old wizard also nodded and said:

"A world contains value in itself, not to mention that you are the only one who knows that world best."

Once you understand the reason.

Lindsay's reaction was naturally not too slow:

"So the life scholars and the awakened members of the merchant guild have set their sights on me."

“……”

The old wizard nodded slightly, but did not speak.

Lindsey tried to ask:

"What if I told them everything the world of Montenegro knew in detail?"

The old wizard's opinion is not optimistic:

"Greed often leads people to make some sad choices."

"They may not be rude to you, but other obstacles will always come."

“……”

"I'm really bothering you to come to visit so late."

Lindsay did not entrust Corsevillette with her protection, or make other excessive demands.

He thanked the old wizard for the reminder and said goodbye.

Only then did he get out of the fence.

Lindsay took two steps down the night road when she found a pretty figure standing next door to her house.

Because of the proximity, Lindsay didn't close the door when she went out.

Aleni was also very polite, and the girl did not trespass into Lindsay's house, just here quietly waiting for Lindsay's return.

The moonlight spreads a carpet on the ground.

She stepped forward with light steps, her pretty face as clear and white as spring water, and her eyes were sharp and moving:

"Lindsay, it's really a beautiful night tonight."
