Chapter 437: Family

As the capital of the kingdom, Wave City is not close to the coastline.

But Wave City is actually an offshore city, it enters the sea through Sognefjord, and at the exit of the fjord, is a military stronghold - Orfs Fortress.

In fact, the real name of Langtao City is called Oslo City, just because every year when the tide is high, the sea water pours in through the Sognefjord, and the waves are several stories high, so it is called Langtao City.

Olfsburg firmly held the mouth of the fjord, and after the fort was built, no enemy ship had ever broken through Olfsburg.

They soon entered the castle and were arranged to live in the palace.

They didn't even get out of the carriage all the way, and they didn't see the city gate until they entered the palace, and they didn't see March, and after asking the guards, they knew that they had gone to meet the king.

The palace of Langtao City is very luxurious, Jia Yi and they live in a palace for hospitality, the carpet of lamb's wool is laid at will, the curtains are all fine linen fabrics, and there are many oil paintings hanging in the corridor.

All the furniture is made of beech and walnut, with delicate patterns carved on it, very elven style, the tableware is made of silver, and even Jia Yi found a set of porcelain for furnishings, this is the first time Jia Yi has seen porcelain in this world for such a long time.

Because of the maritime trade, the kingdom's military strength was not as strong as that of several large empires, but the royal family was so rich that other countries envied and hated it.

......

March followed Mercedes and soon reached the door of the palace study, which had passed the time to receive the minister, and King Ivan III Warir was in the study.

Mercedes stayed outside the door, and March walked into the study alone, and Ivan was reading a book behind the desk, which had a large glass inlaid with windows, and the light inside was very abundant and somewhat colorful.

Because of the process, the glass at this time will inevitably have some color, and colorless transparent glass is rare.

March bent down to salute his uncle, and Ivan III stood up and said to her: "Get up, no need to be polite, how are you doing at the Academy?"

As he spoke, he reached out to the chair next to him and asked her to sit down.

After sitting down, March said softly: "It's good, the professors and classmates of the academy are good, and I have co-authored a book with my friends about the plants and how to eat them in the academy." ”

As he spoke, March couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, the book "College Plant Classification" is not a cooking instruction, but the most written in it is whether it can be eaten and how to eat it.

Ivan nodded slightly when he saw March's appearance, and said softly: "You think it's good, have you brought this book back to me?"

March took out his carry-on bag, took out a book from it, and handed it to Ivan: "This is the book, which we wrote casually at the time, and used it as a textbook for our college, but our professor also wrote one, which is much better than ours, and when the professor's book is published, it will replace us as a teaching material, and our books are only for apprentices, because they are all plants in the academy, and there can be physical reference when teaching." ”

The book that March took out was still parchment, which was very heavy compared to ordinary books, but it was still much thinner than Gwen's new book, even if the other party used paper to print it.

Ivan flipped through a few pages, then turned to the top of the cover, which had the author's signature, and he looked closely, and found his niece's name on it, which was not far behind, in the second row.

Not all book authors are ranked by contribution, but if they are arranged, each row represents more or less the amount of contribution.

"The book looks good, so I'll leave it here, and I'll have some copies of it later, and I'll distribute it in the kingdom. ”

Ivan didn't have much research on botany books, but it should be very good to be listed as a textbook by the academy, and this was compiled with the participation of Her Royal Highness the princess of the kingdom, so it should be popularized.

This shows that the eldest princess of the kingdom has a very promising future in magic.

"You can tell me if you have any problems in the academy, I heard that you have a workshop in the academy, if you have any problems, write back, and I will support you. I'll give you some of the funds first, and you can use it yourself, and you can't learn magic without the support of money. ”

March looked at his uncle, he actually treated March well, whether it was acting or sincere, it was not a bad treatment for March, he also seemed to be defenseless against March, and the bag on Marchi's body did not ask to be taken away.

He didn't induce March to become a tsundere princess who didn't learn anything, he actually paid close attention to March's education, and almost all of his treatment was of the highest standard.

It's just that when March's father Ivan's brother Ian II died, March was still young, so Ivan inherited the throne.

Only on one point, when March said that he wanted to learn magic, Ivan didn't have any advice at all, just asked, "Confirmation code?", and after receiving March's affirmative answer, he immediately asked the court's enshrined mage to teach March magic.

And when it comes to learning magic, Ivan's support can be said to be sparing, so March was able to become an official mage at a slightly older age than Higaichi.

No matter what Jia Yi said, it was also open.

It is also because of this that Mercedes has a big opinion about Ivan, believing that Ivan did it on purpose to make March lose his inheritance. Otherwise, because Ivan inherited the throne from Ian, the next king must be Marge.

Now, March doesn't have a chance.

However, just letting March learn magic is a very gentle method, and Ivan never hides this, he just wants March to concentrate on magic.

Mercedes was not angry at the same time, but also a little grateful to the other party for allowing March to have a relatively peaceful life.

March herself actually understands this, but she does not resist becoming a mage, Ian II's death has nothing to do with Ivan, and Ivan treats her well, there is no deep hatred between the two, so March also deliberately took a step back.

She had no ambitions of her own, and she found pleasure in learning magic, as long as she had enough financial resources to support her in learning magic, she didn't have any opinions.

If she really has a chance to become a purple-robed mage, then she can be regarded as the emperor of the Suthern Kingdom, much more beautiful than the throne, although this is actually more difficult, like a dick dreaming of becoming the richest man.

Both people deliberately maintain their relationship with each other and avoid upsetting the balance.

"There is nothing wrong with the college, I have a good relationship with the professors of the college, and they will not cheat their students. "To be precise, there is nothing to be deceived by the academy, "I run a paper mill at the academy, have you heard of the newspaper?"

Seeing Ivan nodding, March talked about the relationship between the newspaper and herself, and by the way, introduced her paper mill at the college.

The person in charge of North Water City was sent by Mercedes, and the secrecy was very tight, so although Ivan knew that March had purchased an estate at the Academy, he was not very clear about what it was.

Only now did he know that it was a paper mill and the relationship between the paper mill and the newspaper.

March said to Ivan: "Uncle, if you want to print books, you can go to the academy, and the Jiayi who came with me invented a printing press, which is less dependent on magic, and the production of paper will slowly come up, and printing with paper is much cheaper than parchment." ”

March introduced paper and the printing press to his uncle, saying that these things were a little bit like selling to him.

"Since you said yes, then you must not be wrong, I will let the attendants take a look, if it is really cheap to print, then I will ask them to prepare for the construction of a national printing hall, which will be used to print books. ”

Ivan can't wait to announce to everyone that March is very good at magic, and the more March achieves magic, the happier Ivan feels, so he spares no effort to support March.

Now that the study of March magic has borne fruit, it will of course be spread throughout the kingdom.
