August.

The time is close to the day of the holiday.

At this time, there was a restless atmosphere in the entire academy, and even the apprentices like Lorrell were affected.

At this time, Lorel likes to wander the street by the pier, which is a flea market, where many people set up their stalls.

This street is not very big, but there are many people in it, so that the whole street is crowded, and many people set up small tables on both sides of the road, and there are also people who set up stalls but do not sell things, but ask for purchases.

All this looks like a night market, but there will be no chengguan here, but the academy will protect it, and very few people will dare to make trouble here.

At this time of year, there are always a variety of obsolete magic items or potions for sale, which are large in number, variety, and most importantly, generally relatively cheap.

Everyone wants to exchange some equipment at this time, so there are a lot of various equipment items at this time, and many times, Lorel can exchange some good things, compared to her own good things.

She wandered the streets, trying to see if there were any props she could use and afford, and now the paper mill had paid a salary, not too much because of her part-time job, but it had also allowed her to have a lot more money at her disposal.

Suddenly, she heard someone calling out to her, and when she looked back, it was Travis running towards her on a skateboard.

Travis's speed was fast, and although his hair was pulled up, his sideburns had been blown by the wind, and he was flying backwards, a bit of a cloak.

The people on the road avoided Travis one after another, so that she quickly arrived at Lorel's side, and Lorel quickly reached out to stop the other party, and was almost taken to the ground.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Be careful to get caught and punished. Lorrell said reproachfully.

The academy doesn't have such an organization as pickets, but there are requirements for discipline or something, if someone messes around in the academy, they may be caught by the seniors and sent to the teacher's professor, especially for mage apprentices like Travis, the people in the mage class don't have to worry about bullying at all.

"Okay, okay, I know. Although Travis said that he knew, he didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, "It's the paper mill that is looking for us, there is an emergency, otherwise I wouldn't have come in such a hurry." ”

After speaking, she looked around: "What good things can be here, what do you want to buy to go to the Skoll Chamber of Commerce, there are all kinds of things, and the quality is guaranteed." ”

As soon as Travis's words were finished, a small vendor next to her looked at her incorrectly, as if she was about to say something, Lorel saw that it was wrong, and hurriedly bowed to the surroundings, and then pulled Travis to walk outside, leaving quickly.

The speed was so fast that the vendor who just wanted to speak didn't have time to speak.

Out of the street, the two stopped, and Travis complained a little: "What's the matter? ”

It's not that she doesn't know about the free market here, but she doesn't know the specifics of the place, and she hardly visits it.

Everyone has their own way of life, such as Machiyansi, although they have a very good family background, but they have no prejudice against ordinary people and this free market, and they often come to buy things.

Travis, on the other hand, rarely goes to places that look cluttered, preferring a large chamber of commerce like Skoll and being more orderly.

Of course, part of the reason is that Travis is still a mage apprentice, and the materials he needs are simple, almost all of which can be bought in the Great Chamber of Commerce. At the mage level, the breadth of demand for materials is much larger, some of them are more out of the way, and the big chambers of commerce may not be all of them, and the price gap will be very large, so big that mages have to shop around.

Lorrell said: "You have to be careful when you talk inside, most of the stalls in there are mages, and there are even things that the academy professor asks people to sell, you say this and be careful of being taught a lesson." Most of the props in it are second-hand, and I don't even know how many hands have been transferred, but there are many good things.

"For example, some special materials, some people are reluctant to sell to the Chamber of Commerce, they will sell here, especially at the end of the semester, many people in order to go out on adventures, they will take out some of their temporary unused but reluctant things to sell, and the price is not too expensive. I'll take you over and take a closer look when I have time. ”

The free market here is not only open at this time, but it is usually available, but the abundance is far from the end of the semester.

"What's the paper mill looking for us?"

Being reminded by Lorel like this, Travis remembered the matter: "I don't know, but it seems to be in a hurry, someone came to inform me, but I couldn't find where you were, so I came." What new material I've heard, elven grass?"

Travis herself didn't know, she was also informed.

After saying that, Travis took out another skateboard and handed it to Lorel: "Let's hurry up, this is my spare skateboard, I'll borrow it for you first." ”

Lorel didn't refuse, and after getting acquainted with Travis, she also borrowed each other's skateboards many times, and now she is familiar with them.

The two of them stepped on their skateboards, and soon came to the side of the paper mill, and as soon as they entered the wall, they saw a boxy haystack in the middle of the square, taking up a large area of the place where the fibers were originally dried.

Lorrell walked over to see what was supposed to be the stalks of some plant, with long strips of leaves on them, and she pulled one out, not long in length, about the same as wheat stalks, but much softer than wheat stalks.

She was wondering what this was when she heard March's voice come over: "You two are here, come quickly, I have something to explain to you." ”

Lorrell turned her head to see March standing in the door of the factory looking at the two of them.

When the two of them walked in, March said, "Do you see that big haystack?"

Lorel and Travis nodded hurriedly, such a big haystack, if you don't see it, you must be blind.

March continued: "It was brought by your professor Jiayi, the elf rice stalk, the new paper-making raw material, and your task is to process and mix these new raw materials to see what kind of paper can be made, and what effect it can have when combined with the rest of the raw materials. ”

"Elven Rice Pole, is the legend of the Elven Rice in the Academy true?" asked Lorrell, somewhat surprised.

"What is the legend of the elven rice?" Travis, who was on the other side, was a little puzzled, and then asked.

Travis doesn't know what elven rice is, elven rice is not common, not everyone knows it, and Travis's family is definitely rich, but it is obviously not expensive enough.

Lorrell explained: "Elven rice is a kind of rice cultivated by the elven clan, it is very precious, I heard my father say that there are people in the academy who are cultivating elven rice, but no one has ever confirmed it, now, is this a successful cultivation?"

In fact, Lorrell doesn't know about elf rice, she only knows that there is this kind of thing, which is very precious, but how precious it is is some hearsay rumors, and she herself is embarrassed to say - like the reason why the elf clan lives so long is because they often eat elf rice.

March nodded: "It has indeed been successfully cultivated, these are the rice stalks left over from harvesting elf rice, although they are only rice stalks, they are still very formal, I hope you can make good use of them." ”

March instructed the two of them to leave immediately, not staying in the paper mill for long.

The elven rice has just been harvested, and Kaichi has been busy on that side, and she is also involved in the cultivation of elven rice, so she needs to go over and take a look.

Compared to the elf rice, the paper mill is not a big deal.
