Lord Helanza

The manager of the Trading Company opened the door and walked into the room. The light in this room was slightly dim. A magician wearing a magic robe embroidered with golden shadows was standing in front of the test bench, very focused Staring at the cauldron in front of me, under the steady heating of the magic scroll of "Fire Convergence", the viscous liquid in the cauldron was spitting out bubbles, and the room was filled with a pungent smell.

Seeing the Trading Company manager leading the customer in, the magician stopped working, took off the fish skin gloves and hung on the stand, then turned around and looked at with a smile. To the door-didn't expect it was Dal's magician*!

Surdak didn't expect to see this magician who had helped him twice in the Trading Company. I remember that the first time was at the entrance of the underground trading market. At that time, the brawny at the entrance of the exchange The guard prohibited him from entering the underground trading market. The second time this was in the bar where the slave auction was held. At that time, he was planning to buy two dwarf slaves, but was secretly blocked by the Dall magician. The reason was that the dwarf slaves were notorious gray dwarves. simply is not good at forging and mining.

Dalle magician saw Mrs. Christie walking in with the Trading Company manager, and came forward to greet him familiarly: "Marianna, why are you free to come over?"

Mrs. Christie greeted Dal’s magician nodded and said straight to the point: “I’m here to see you this time to introduce a friend to exchange for some magical materials from your Trading Company. Oh, this is Surdak Knight."

Speaking, Mrs. Christie gave up half of her body to let the Dal Magician see Surdak standing behind.

"Hello, Dalle magician!" Surdak took a step forward and solemnly paid a knight salute to Dalle magician.

Dal’s magician’s piercing eyes fell on Surdak, and he hesitated for two seconds before he walked up with a smile and patted his shoulder and said, “Surdak, I remember you. We were in the slave bar last time. I have seen it."

Dal’s magician invites everyone to sit on the sofa in the lounge area of ​​the laboratory, and the magic experiment over there is handed over to the assistant.

"Tell me what are you going to make me appraise?" Dalle magician sat opposite Surdak and asked Surdak curiously.

While Surdak took out the magic herbs from the magic waist bag, one after another was placed on a square table with angel embossed legs. The Trading Company manager sitting aside leaned over to Surdak and explained: "Surdak Knight , You can give the magic herbs to Dal’s magician for identification. We will make a preliminary estimate of your magic herbs, and post the information of these magic herbs on the notice board in the lobby on the second floor. Those magic herbs are in need to buy If you want to buy, you will definitely contact our Trading Company. Of course, they must use the goods you specify in exchange for your magic herbs. In fact, our trading company is a trading platform for bartering goods. Multi-party complementary trading."

"Let me see what these are, oh, these magic herbs are very rare, but...they can only be used to formulate special magic potions. In the formulas of common potions, This kind of starlight cattail is rarely used.” Dal’s magician set up a piece of crystal glasses on the bridge of his nose, took a magic plant and glanced at it twice, and said: "Oh...this is starlight cattail, which has a wide range of uses. Grass can be equipped with courage potions or fury potions. The potion formula of fury potions is widely circulated in the orc tribe. This is a nightmare vine, and many potionists like to use it to make hypnotic potions. These white ring vines, white ring vines The tree sap can repair the magic parchment. What do I need to exchange for these magic herbs?"

Surdak already knows the names of these magic herbs from the magic notes. See Dal’s magician and ask me what magic herbs I need. Passed the list of herbs listed by Ferdinand scholar to Dal’s magician, D’al’s magician took the list, read it carefully, and asked Surdak for a moment, "Heather, golden thorn... These are all They are in short supply. Are these herbs only for magic herbs?"

Surdak nodded, and said, "Yes, that's it."

Dal’s magician stared at Surdak and asked: "If someone wants to trade Devil Crystal Stone, Gold Coin or other magic materials, the value is several times higher than these magic plants, or ten times higher, would you like to exchange it?"

"I only trade These kinds of magic herbs." Surdak replied firmly.

Dal’s magician nodded, said to the Trading Company manager on the side: “Well, just follow the instructions of Surdak Knight and publish the details and requirements of these magic herbs on the notice board, and then check the Trading Company. For all sales catalogs, see if there are any of these potions in the catalog. If so, see what magic items the sellers need to redeem, and check these clearly..."

"I’m here Go ahead, Master Dal Magician!" After the Trading Company manager finished speaking, he walked out of the room with the detailed list provided by Dal Magician.

Dalle magician turned around and said to Surdak: "This kind of transaction buyer will not appear immediately. You need to wait patiently for a period of time. You can leave your address. If someone wants to exchange, we can write Here you are, if it’s not convenient to leave the address, please come to the Trading Company to check it every two weeks. If you are traveling far away, you must entrust you with discretionary power in advance. Now the magic grass is very popular, although the potions you want to trade are also very rare. , But at least you can see it in the market. I think there will be good news soon."

"Okay, Lord Dal’s magician." Surdak heard Dal’s magician say this, and he felt Slightly sighed in relief.

Mrs. Christie did not intervene during the whole process. She sat aside and listened quietly. After the transaction was completed, she glanced at Surdak with admiration.

After these magic herbs were entrusted to the Trading Company, Surdak planned to bid farewell to the Dal magician. At this time, I heard Dal’s magician ask: "By the way, do you still have a sulfur mine in your hand?" If yes, I would like to purchase a batch."

Surdak readily agreed: "Yes, Dalle magician, how much do you want?"

Dalle magician look at Surdak So refreshing, eyes shined, and replied: "Of course, the more the better. Now the market price of sulfur mines in Helanza city is worth 4 silver pound per pound, which is nearly 30% higher than the official purchase price. It should be the most cost-effective."

"Did the plane of Harlan that produce sulfur mines have been captured by the dark Legion?" Mrs. Christie asked Dal’s magician in surprise, “Sulfur mines are so common. Why is there still a shortage of resources?"

"I haven’t heard the news about this place yet, probably because of the cold winter this year. Now some alchemy workshops in Helanza have started to make matches. For business, in addition to purchasing a large amount of red pine wood that is full of oil, sulfur and red phosphorus are also indispensable. However, the existing sulfur in the magic market of Helanza City is not sufficient for the time being. The trading company has already been connected to the street. Three bills for the sulphur mine." Dalle Magician said to the two.

"I only have unrefined sulfur ore in my hand. If I can, I can send you a batch next week." Surdak said.

Although this heavy snow completely blocked the mountain road, for a Knight like Surdak, it is not too difficult to cross the mountain road and return to Wall Village. It is a round trip. Knight Academy will inevitably have to delay a day or two of courses, but considering that a stable sales channel can finally be established for these sulfur mines in Wall Village, Surdak will agree to it anyway.

Surdak and Mrs. Christie walked out of the White Elephant Trading Company, and Karl was already waiting outside the Trading Company.

...

Boarding the magic caravan, Karl and Mrs. Christie couldn't help but hug each other and kiss each other in the car.

Surdak looked at the'cheating couple' speechlessly, wishing to jump out of the car, even if we walk back to Knight Academy, it would be better than sitting in the car, but sitting on the side seat at the door of the car The close maid of Mrs. Christine looked steadily forward towards the window, as if she had become accustomed to the scene in the carriage.

After a while, Karl realized that Surdak was still sitting in the carriage, and then he straightened up, tidyed up his wrinkled dress, and asked Surdak casually: "Everything is going well? "

Mrs. Christie sits beside Carl, her white face is like a ripe red apple, she doesn’t know if she is excited or shy, she has a pair of blue beautiful eyes, and she looks at Surdak boldly. Full of curiosity.

"Well, just wait for the news quietly now." Surdak glanced at Karl and replied.

Carl couldn’t help but smiled'hehe’, and he casually found a topic and said: “By the way, I heard that the Manor of Earl Furnock will hold an auction on the weekend, and that manor is almost deserted. For three years, it has become a ghost castle that no one cares about, but now it seems to have appreciated again. The reason is that the band of bandits that raged around Helanza was completely eliminated, and the stronghold of the Black Magic Priory was also eradicated. , Many nobles in the city with spare money in their hands want to buy the manor."

Mrs. Christie’s gentle eyes fell on Carl, exhaled and asked Carl: "Why? Right? What are your thoughts on this manor? "There is an imposing manner of'as long as you are nodded, I will buy it for you'.

A faint smile appeared on Carl's face and shook the head to Mrs. Christie, saying: "I remember going to Furnock Manor before. The manor was built really well. I have no plans for this for the time being. Surdak, have you bought some property ideas? If you buy that manor, the surrounding mountains and forests will be regarded as the property of Funak Manor."

Surdak was a little surprised, he really didn't think about it. After all this, I wondered how much it would cost to buy the Funak Manor.

Carl said to Surdak: "When you become a Knight, you will have a Knight territory, but the better land around Helanza has been divided up and cleaned up. I have to say that the forest of Funak Manor is A good piece of land, even if you spend some money to buy it, it is worth it."

Surdak just thought about it, and said to Karl: "I don't have that many spare money, and I still I plan to develop Wall Village. In the future, my Fiefdom should be near Wall Village."

Carl Patted his pocketbook and generously said to Surdak: "If it’s just a tight hand If you do, I can help you find a way. Are you going to pick your Knight out of the mountain pass?"

Surdak without the slightest hesitation replied, "Yes, I think so, after all, I His home is over there."

"Isn't there a Desolate Land? What use do you want that piece of worthless land?" Carl is a little weak to complain,

Surdak touched his forehead and said, "The land that can be allocated to me It shouldn't be too big, pick and choose, including Wall Village, there are still many land to choose from."

Seeing that Surdak did not intend to buy Furnock Manor, Carl had no choice but to give up and stop persuading: "Okay, but I suggest that you should still consider Funak Manor. It can’t be too expensive, and you are a member of platoon, don’t worry too much about the security of Funak Manor..."

"Tax Officer Byrd is okay?" Surdak leaned on the sofa and told Karl Asked.

This warm-hearted tax officer brought Surdak back to Wall Village. If he hadn't led the way, Surdak would not have been easy to find that remote village.

"I just drank a little too much. He usually has a good amount of alcohol. I don't know what's wrong recently, and I have been in a low mood." Karl replied.

The magic caravan drove all the way to the Knight Academy and placed Surdak at the gate of the Knight Academy. The magic caravan quickly disappeared into the dusk

Surdak returned to the Knight Academy’s In the dormitory, I randomly found some cold scones to fill my stomach, and drank a glass of cold water. I felt a lot of energy. Then I took out the magic notebook from the magic pocket and turned it over when I was in the library at noon. Going to the last page of the magical notes, I saw the portrait of a girl who looked a little like Selena and almost fell into it.

After leaving the library, Surdak remembered that when he was hunting the bandit gang in the great valley, he also found a portrait of Selena, which was obviously different from the last page of the magical notes. Different, the portrait in the hands of the robber looks more similar to Selena.

The portrait of Selena on the magic notebook is younger, and has a charm-the breath of dark Goddess.

Surdak was ready, and opened the magical notes next to the bed again, and slowly turned to the last page. The girl in the portrait is clearly what Selena looked like when she was young, maybe Because of the charcoal, her eyes are black. Just when Surdak turned her head and looked towards another portrait of Selena, the girlhood Selena on the magical notebook was strangely moved towards Surdak slightly smiled on the parchment... …

The feeling of have one's hair stand on end made Surdak burst into a cold sweat.
