Chapter 39: Seeking Advice

Kaichi took Flower into the living room and unfolded the drawings he had brought with him on the large table.

The drawings are very sloppy, and the lines on them are not very straight, and they look like children's graffiti.

Jia Yi looked at Flower and laughed: "This thing is a bit rudimentary, it can't be that you painted it, right?"

In fact, Jia knew as soon as he saw it, this was not painted by Flower, and he couldn't even draw a ruler gauge, and if it was painted by Flower, I was afraid that Imu would have discounted his leg if he knew about it.

Of course, it is not clear whether the author of this picture will or will not want to do it.

Flower also looked a little helpless, and said curtly: "This, sketch, this is just a meaning, we don't understand it very well, come and ask you." A real roadmap certainly doesn't have to be so sketchy and rough. ”

Jia Yi is just smiling and not talking.

"This is the city plan that my father envisioned," said Flower, "you see this is a residential area, and the eastern side is all turned into a commercial area, and after the city is expanded, the roads in the whole city will be painted so that the horse-drawn carriages can reach all the plots, and the alleys and the bell tower you mentioned will also be arranged for you in the center of the city." ”

Jia Yi knew at a glance that the person who painted the painting was not attentive, and even a little perfunctory in it, not only the roughness of the painting, whether it was horizontal or vertical, but the main reason was that he changed the eastern district into a commercial area.

The East End has always been a place where nobles live, and they are all aristocratic residences, and if you want to let them all move out and then convert them into a commercial area, how much will it cost. A noble mansion is not a small price, even if someone is willing to support the city lord, will the city lord compensate for the loss of moving?

Just one thing, can you help these nobles build new houses? And what about the specifications? You can't just build a house and just send it away.

After pointing this out, Jia Yi asked, "Are you a little at odds with the person who drew the drawings? This is simply a special pullback, as long as you have a little common sense, you will not design such a drawing." ”

Flor's face was also a little ugly, and he said: "Well, my father's clerk may have little experience in building a city, so he designed it like this, not on purpose." It's also that I have too little experience. ”

Although he said this, his face was a little gloomy, and Jia Yi looked at it and said, "Okay, you don't have to bear it in front of me, this clerk has a conflict with you." I don't bother to take care of your family affairs, but the little nobles in the countryside have so much. ”

Flower looked at Jia Yi speechlessly, this was the first time that someone called his family a small nobleman in the countryside, and his tone was so disdainful. This is a viscount, a viscount of a real territory, even if he didn't build a city, it was because of the high requirements, and he wanted to build a real city instead of a dirt city.

Now in Jiayi's mouth, it seems that it has become a status with a cat and a dog.

But thinking about Jia Yi's identity, the white-robed mage, he is also qualified to say such things.

Flower sighed and said, "I may have been meddling in the affairs of the territory a lot lately, and I can't inherit the territory in the future, so my father's clerk is a little unpleasant." ”

Jia Yi smiled and said, "Maybe it's also blocking other people's financial paths." ”

Flower smiled bitterly: "You guessed correctly, I did find that the other party's hands and feet were not clean, and then told my father, but I didn't expect to be reprimanded in the end, this matter may be known by the other party, so I don't deal with it very well." ”

"When the water is clear, there are no fish. Jia Yi patted Flower on the shoulder, "At least you are the son of the lord, and now you are still a reserve mage, and the other party can only disgust you, and there is nothing you can do." ”

Saying that, Jia shook his head at first: "However, if you can become an official mage, the other party will never dare to blow up with you, everyone is a spell to learn together, you are a little behind." ”

Flor's mouth opened at what Jia Yi said, wanting to say something but couldn't. The three of us started the spell to learn together, and now two of them have broken through to become official mages, leaving him alone stuck before becoming an official mage, and there is no hope of breaking through, which really makes Flower feel a little frustrated.

It's really hard to make people admit from the bottom of their hearts that they are inferior to others, especially when this person is your friend.

And it's actually a bit inhumane to compare Flower with Jiayi, even if Daer's talent is outstanding, and being able to enter the magic academy to study can be regarded as a gifted mage, otherwise even if Imu was down-and-out at that time, he wouldn't easily agree to the lord to teach his children.

is like the students who were admitted to 985 and 211, although college students have been regarded as overflowing, and there are no longer a few degenerates in school, but being able to be admitted shows that at least in high school, they are all very outstanding students.

Although Flower's talent is ordinary, it has not reached a bad level, but the magic enlightenment is late, so even if he has studied behind Jiayi for so long, he has not broken through to become a formal mage, but for Flower, it is not impossible to become a formal mage.

In fact, his current progress is normal, although theoretically gifted people can become full-fledged mages in about 10 years, but there is a so-called concept similar to survivorship bias in it. It's like most people who are admitted to university are 9+3=12 years of study, but there are still many who have not been admitted, and there are not a few remedial ones.

It's not that you can't be admitted beyond this period, and there are many middle-aged people who take the college entrance examination.

Compared with the college entrance examination, it is more difficult to become a magician, at least at the level of a graduate student.

Theoretically, if a person persists in studying, it is always possible to be admitted to university and become a magician, but the deviation between theory and practice is sometimes very different.

"Well, I'll try, but I'm here today to talk to you about urban planning. ”

After being hit by Jiayi, Flower couldn't even speak: "You belittle this plan for nothing, so how should you plan your ideal city?"

Jia Yi looked lazy and said, "You don't expect me to think it all over for you, right? It was your family who built the city and not me, how could I think too comprehensively." ”

Flore's face began to change, this is to kill or bury, I mentioned a lot earlier, but now I don't care about it.

Then I heard Jia Yi say: "If I have a territory, I don't even want the city wall, and when the time comes, build a mage tower in the middle, and the place where the magic power reaches is my city, build the central part first, and expand it as much as you want." ”

"Are you kidding?" said to Flower, who was simply deviant of his thoughts, "without a city wall, what to do to defend against enemy attacks, this is simply self-defeating." ”

In the war of cold weapons, the city wall is the strongest defense, even in this magical world, as long as it is not a legendary mage, the city wall is not small. The walls of large cities are specially made, and there are structures to resist spells inside, unless it is a legendary mage who sends justice from heaven, ordinary mages cannot simply destroy the city walls.

Even if it is an ordinary city wall, without spell resistance treatment, it is still very difficult for a white-robed mage-level mage to collapse the city wall. Spells similar to fossils of mud have a limited one-time range, and in order to be able to collapse the walls in one go, a group of mages must unite to launch war spells.

"I have magic, as long as I build a miniature mage tower, especially in a remote place like yours, as long as there is a gray-robed mage in charge, even if an army of thousands of people comes to besiege it, I am not afraid. ”

At this time, the army of thousands of people is not small, even if Sainsbury is the viscount, the number of the army led by Sainsbury is only more than 200 people, plus the personal armed forces of the knights under his command, the total number is only about 400 people, which is also a long way from a thousand.

And many times, the combat effectiveness of the same thousand people is also very different.

However, although Jia Yi said it well, in fact, it was mainly because of the lack of mages here and the lack of means to fight against mages, so he dared to make a big statement.

Even for the mage, having walls and not having walls are two completely different things, he actually brought the modern city in, but in fact, even in the Anti-Japanese War, the city walls and city gates still played a big role, and many battles were fought around the city walls and city gates.

Maybe it's because the road is at the city gate.

However, if there really is a mage tower, it is really not difficult for an ordinary small-scale war to protect a small city, and Jiayi's statement is not unreasonable.
