After Nigaul left, there were several more visitors who had already made appointments, including officials from the Ministry of Finance, members of the Board of Management of the Stock Exchange, who had been commissioned by Derek and others, and a doctor, whom Solomon had interviewed on his own initiative, who was responsible for reporting on Lizzie's recovery.

Finally, there is Jackson, Reginer's nephew, after the former Chancellor of the Exchequer stepped down, he aged a lot, and he retired completely after serving as a member of the Senate for another five years, perhaps because he worked too hard as Chancellor of the Exchequer, although he was a high-level mage, but his health was not very good.

After retiring, he basically stopped caring about political affairs, and he was already relatively withdrawn, and he didn't meet outsiders very much. He had nothing to take care of because of the decline of his family, and if there was, it was only Jackson, the nephew who came to visit Solomon at the end.

At least after he stepped down, Solomon was one of the few people who could come to his door, and Reginer showed his concern for his nephew in front of him, and that was enough, so Jackson's visit, even though the two sides were now very different, Solomon was still happy to receive it.

Speaking of which, this Jackson brother is also quite embarrassed, when his uncle was the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he was a lonely minister, even if he had the meaning of loving his nephew, but he would never allow Jackson to use his scenery to do something out of the ordinary.

After retiring, no one knows what Regina thinks, maybe he wants to plan for his nephew, but even if this loyal old minister has this kind of thought, it is estimated that it will be difficult to exit, and it must be a person like Solomon to understand a little.

And how to take care of it is also a problem, the title of the Marquis of Regina is there, but Regina is not dead. Jackson had no way to inherit it. At most, the background is not bad.

It wasn't hard to make him rich. But the difficulty is how to make him innocent and rich, not to let the old marquis's reputation suffer because of the means of making a fortune, and the Marquis of Regina should think that his nephew not only makes money, but also wants him to exercise his ability and truly inherit the title, instead of becoming a playboy and an incompetent waste.

Solomon had already recommended him to the stock exchange as Derek's assistant, a position that not everyone could go. But it's not hard to get a Rohmin recommendation.

But it is a pity that this old man only worked for three months and did not want to go again, because he did not like this kind of life very much, and he was eager to run around and earn wealth in activities.

It is not surprising that young people have such thoughts, because they are still young and have the ability to afford to fail, and if they don't succeed, they can come again, like Jackson, if he fails one after another, Solomon will still arrange for him to arrange an errand with food and clothing. Then, until the death of his uncle, he had an eighty percent chance of inheriting the title of Regina. Become a noble knight.

However, even if he didn't stop Regina's nephew from becoming an adventurer and then dreaming of becoming a tycoon, he couldn't be completely laissez-faire, so Solomon secretly prevented him from going to some of the more dangerous heterotopic planes to do business, such as Yogudral, where the demonic beasts have not been completely wiped out, and it may take several years to restore the prosperity they used to have; 。

Of course, this reason is far-fetched, because Regina's nephew has also obtained the seventh-level warrior certificate of the Warrior Guild no matter what he says.

So Mr. Jackson came to visit Solomon.

"Honorable Duke, you are one of the people I admire the most in my life, I admire you more than my uncle, but you should not stop me from going to Cologondo, I heard that it is a new plane, I like to venture to such a place, I have to say that you hinder me from making a fortune. The young man complained.

"Hehe, young man, but it's dangerous there, and the kingdom's military power is very limited there, and if something happens to you, it's hard for anyone else to help you. Solomon said solemnly.

"I know I have no right to say that I won't waste Kingdom taxpayers' money to help me, and that's hypocrisy. But, Lord Duke, you are a good friend of my uncle, and I don't think you would want to see his nephew like a waste, do you want me to stay in the little circle of St. Quentin all day, and rely on the legacy of my uncle to provoke men and women everywhere? Jackson complained, saying that when he was excited, he stood up and waved his hands, adding to his momentum, and recounting his frustration and incomprehension.

"The most important thing a man should do is to mount a horse and take a great sword to slash, and perhaps in this day and age he should carry a musket and fight, to open up territory for the kingdom and resist invasion for our people. He raised his head and said, and soon said in frustration: "Of course, I understand that the kingdom doesn't need me to do this, this is just to meet my ideals, and my strength is better for the kingdom to recruit more ordinary people to join the army." However, I don't want to be like this either, otherwise I will be decadent. ”

"I'll be decadent, Lord Duke, do you understand?" he said in a pitiful tone.

Solomon laughed, the young man in front of him still had some idealistic colors, but at least he was right, Solomon could not always stop him, otherwise excessive inhibition would make him lose his sharpness, and I believe that Sir Reginer would not agree.

"At least you can't go to those dangerous planes, tell me what you really mean, I'm sure you're so smart, you must have found someone who thinks you can convince me not to stop your way to get rich, otherwise it's better to be your assistant, I guarantee that you can also make a fortune in that position." ”

"Of course you can make a fortune in that position, but I don't like it, I don't like it at all. Jackson blurted out, of course he knew that being Derek's assistant, making a fortune was as easy as drinking water, and the assistant to the vice president of the board of management of the stock exchange, salary and everything was a trivial matter, and the information he could get every day was a shortcut to getting rich, or no matter how stupid. Just follow Mr. Derek to buy stocks.

But he didn't like it. He wanted to make money on his own.

"I did find a way to make a fortune. A friend plans to buy a joint venture with me to do ocean trade, at the beginning will transport ambergris paste and other special products between the Jade Continent and the Azure Continent, we will ship our own when we have the goods, and we will also help people to transport goods when our own supply is small, and when the development is smooth, we will buy more ships and form a special fleet. The young man told him what he was going to do.

Solomon listened attentively. didn't say anything wrong, which made Jackson's heart flutter, and he was eighty percent sure that it would be done this time.

So he plucked up the courage to continue, mainly to obtain the qualification for ocean trade as soon as possible, and to obtain some other conveniences.

"The sea is much safer than before, but it is still very dangerous, and if you have to do this, you must not buy a bad ship, or I will not only not help you, but will still hinder you. Solomon said.

"But that's the case. The cost will increase, and I don't want to ask my family for money. Jackson said urgently.

"I can privately invest in your purchase of this ship. If you don't want to, then I can also help you contact the bankers in the city and act as your guarantor loan to buy a higher grade boat. Solomon said.

"Well, that's fine. Jackson said happily.

Solomon then suggested to him that the ship should be the latest magic sailboat, the latest sea-going ship that could sail with sails and be powered by the ship's Black Rock Furnace.

Asturias was not originally good at shipbuilding, but after merging with Modo, the art of shipbuilding was developed, and combined with the development of magic, it was naturally integrated into shipbuilding.

However, when it comes to sailing on the sea, there are different directions for sailing in addition to the sailboats that have always existed.

The first is the Magic Sailboat that Solomon now recommends to Jackson, which actually has three powers. In addition to the sail power, the integration of magic technology makes the ship have two other powers, one is that the magic power extracted by the black rock can be directly used as the power, and the other is the steam power driven by the combustion of the black rock.

At the same time, it has three powers, which makes the ship basically worry-free at sea, can sail at high speed day and night, and can bring great changes to the life on the ship, such as magic lighting can exist on this kind of ship, while most of the lighting of ordinary sailboats can still only use candles or fluorescents.

If the power is sufficient, the ship's armament will also be greatly improved, which will bring about an increase in safety, especially the storage of black rock mana, which can play a role when the ship is in trouble.

But the disadvantages are also very obvious, the ship will become larger and more expensive, like Jackson and his two other partners who are going to start a shipping company, and the first ship they want to buy does not consider this magic sailboat at all.

The first ship they considered was actually a dual-powered ship, one that had steam power in addition to sails.

This dual-powered ship is a simplification of the magic sailboat mentioned above, and does not have the function of using the magic power in the black rock, but it can use steam power, so it can only use coal or wood when using fuel, and the living facilities and the degree of armament on board are of course far inferior.

This kind of ship can always use steam power on routes with refueling on the route, and only need to replenish coal, but if it is used for ocean navigation, there are not so many places to replenish along the way from the Emerald Continent to the Azure Continent, so sails will also be used.

But now that Solomon was willing to provide financial support or loan guarantees, Jackson accepted it, focusing on the other party's consent, so that he could go to the Emerald Continent to see the real High Elves and Druids, as well as the legendary unicorns.

"Thank you, Lord Duke. Jackson felt his eyes moisten a little.

"Don't thank me, you're in good time, work hard, I'm sure your uncle will be happy to see that you have the ability to inherit everything from him in the future. Solomon said.

"Then I am grateful for this era, what a beautiful era it is, this is the best of times. "Jackson blessed the way of the heart.

In Solomon's encouraging eye, the young man withdrew from the place where the guests met.

When he stepped out of the gate of the Central Bank Headquarters Building, he turned around lightly, made a kiss to the customer service sister on the ground floor, and said loudly: "Wait until I come back from the Emerald Continent to invite you to drink, okay?"

Then in the astonished eyes of the customer service beauty, he laughed and left, and he hurried back to tell his two partners, Bernadotte and Jimenez, the good news. (To be continued.) )
