Arcane Universe

Feng Chou said: “Navigation is very boring. Because fleet has to avoid the dangers near the coast, it often chooses deep sea areas far away from the coast. You can only see the endless blue sea every month.”

The Marquis asked: “Can you avoid danger by staying away from the coastline?”

Feng Chou said: “No, only It is said that most dangers can be avoided, but there are still risks. The fleet I boarded had more than 100 merchant ships and seven battleships from the Kingdom of Medicis. However, in a pirate encounter, I lost five. A merchant ship.”

The Marquis said: “Can you tell me? I’m talking about that pirate raid.”

Feng Chou said: “Of course, that pirate The name is “Brain Eaters”. It is a pirate fleet controlled by Heart Demon from the bottom of the earth. The opposing fleet is composed of terrifying magic ships. The magic fleet attacks the fleet from the front, dragging the seven escorted warships, and then grabbing Heart Demon. Controlling a group of terrible Kou Tao murlocs outflank the merchant ship from the rear, Kou Tao murlocs board the ship directly in the sea and launch a ship capture battle. In the capture battle, Heart Demon will suddenly be teleported to the ship in the chaos and cast Spirit Burst, paralyzed the guards on the ship and successfully captured the ship.”

“At that time, a total of six merchant ships were captured by Heart Demon, only one survived, and the remaining five were all captured by Heart Demon. Capture.”

“After capturing the satisfactory spoils of war, capture Heart Demon and drive the spoils of war to leave. The magical fleet entangled with warships in front also quickly disengaged and left, and the magical battleship was firepower. Slightly inferior to warships, but this magical battleship that can fly long distances is much faster than warships.”

After hearing Feng Chou’s introduction, the Marquis looked a little uneasy. He said: “Why do pirates Is there such a terrible battleship?”

Feng Chou said: “As far as I know, this magical battleship technology comes from the legacy of the Arcane Empire. On the surface, people cannot The production of this kind of magic ship, but the Nether Darkness Region is not restricted, so they can make this terrible magic ship.”

The Marquis said: “So, do you think it is not safe to sail at sea?”

Feng Chou said: “Of course, it’s not completely safe, but for trade, this level of security is enough. As far as I know, there are not many powerful pirates like Brain Eaters. Not every voyage will encounter it. Even if they encounter it, the pirates will not fight to the death with the fleet. Their purpose is to plunder. Therefore, each encounter will always lose a part of the merchant ship, but the proportion will not exceed one-tenth. . Generally speaking, the loss is not large. For a merchant ship, the probability of loss is less than 3%, while the profit of each trade is as high as 100% to 200%, which is relative to the profit. , The loss is completely negligible. “

After listening to Feng Chou’s analysis, the Marquis relaxed, he asked again: “Do you have any suggestions for maritime trade?” “

Feng Chou said: “Very simple, powerful and fast armed merchant ship, you can run past the enemy, but you must run past your own people; you must also have an experienced captain, an excellent captain It can lead the crew to success, and the botched captain will kill the entire crew. Of course, if there is an archmage who can fight Heart Demon, it would be more perfect, but this is obviously not realistic. “

After listening, the Marquis said, “Thank you very much, Stuart master. Your story is wonderful and the analysis is very logical… Then, I heard that you want to buy Stirling Manor? I require cash transactions, real estate, installment payments, etc. are not accepted, and all cash must be paid in one lump sum. “

Feng Chou said: “No problem. I dealt with all of my possessions in Owendale before I came to the Sutton Empire, so I happened to have a lot of cash on hand. “

Nodded, satisfied with the Marquis, said: “I wish us a successful transaction. The specific affairs will be handled by my assistant and my heir, Gladstone Baron. “

Speaking, he pointed to the secretary beside him.

The youngster in a white silk dress said, “Please follow me. “

Greyston Baron took Feng Chou and Manager Longman and left the large office.

The following procedures were quite cumbersome, and Gladstone Baron only worked two or three times a day. Hours, so it took them three full days to complete all the formalities and transfer the manor to Feng Chou’s name. Of course, Feng Chou also used a large money order from Woking Bank to pay 10 million crowns in one go. Fortunately, Gladstone Baron came forward, and the city hall went green all the way without any difficulties. Although it was cumbersome, things went smoothly.

During the transaction, Gleny Ston Baron and Feng Chou have talked about sailing many times, and Feng Chou also did what he liked. They talked about what they could talk about, and the two sides established a good friendship.

Completed the territory transaction. Feng Chou went from an honorable lifetime Baron brought by a high-level mage to a hereditary Baron with a real leader.

However, for Feng Chou to truly obtain the title, he needs royal canonization.

With the approval of the local lords, there is no need for the royal family to entrust the land, and this kind of canonization can also bring a lot of shield tax to the royal family, so, according to the usual practice, this kind of canonization is just a cutscene.

Of course, the title and so on are not important to Feng Chou. Once the territory is settled, the mage laboratory must be built.

But before that, Feng Chou needs Some trustworthy staff.

Accompanied by the manager of Longman and a steward of the Marquis of Nicholas, Feng Chou successfully accepted the Stirling Manor.

Feng Chou refused I followed the proposal of Manager Longman that his company provide manpower to help him manage the manor. Looking at the steward of the marquis mansion with steward of the territory, the officials and servants left the manor, leaving only the beneficiary officer, farming officer and other reasons. A low-level territorial official held by the territorial territorial people.

Finally, Feng Chou announced to the town and village officials and agricultural officials that all positions will remain the same, and someone will take over the management of the manor tomorrow and let them Go back to appease the people, everything is as usual.

Sent away the restless agricultural officials and beneficiaries, only Feng Chou is left in the huge castle.

Feng After Chou left a space guide in the castle hall, he took out the high-level teleportation staff, the rays of light flashed, and disappeared in the hall.

When Feng Chou appeared again, he Already in the castle hall under the command of New Amberit.

Chapman Steward, Owen and Natasha Kn ight, and all the apprentices, were waiting for him in the hall.

As early as Feng Chou took down Earl Patrick, and suddenly discovered that there was a huge family of vampires behind him, Feng Chou had already begun to consider whether he should avoid this powerful force in Owendale Vampire family.

Feng Chou, who had the idea of ​​transferring, told Chapman, Owen, and Natasha to secretly teach the apprentices to learn Sutton through text messaging.
