Arcane Age

The next morning, the Friendship docked at the dock of the seaport town again, and Baron Humphrey, the head of the Bonaparte Family Chamber of Commerce, appeared on Violet Island with the ship.

He came here at Xi Wei's invitation, and the cooperation he was talking about was to sell the book "How Magic is Made" in the Kingdom of France.

Although the Bonaparte Family is located on the remote island of Corsica, this does not mean that the Bonaparte Family Chamber of Commerce has no sales channels.

On the contrary, in the past ten years or so, the Bonaparte Family Chamber of Commerce has flourished, setting up warehouses and hotels in every important city throughout the Kingdom of France.

All this is because of Natalia’s mother, Mrs. Olivia!

She is the favorite sister of His Majesty Charles VIII Aulon, the current King of France!

And Mrs. Olivia is the current person behind the Bonaparte Family Chamber of Commerce. This person in charge is the former palace official who accompanied the married Princess Olivia to Corsica from the Palace of Versailles!

"Nice to meet you, Baron Humphrey!" Xi Wei appeared on the dock wearing a fit and smart black uniform.

"Nice to meet you, Knight Frost!" Baron Humphrey was wearing a low-key purple uniform that contained luxury. He had a gold medal of the King on his chest, which was the former Majesty of Charles VII. A reward for his loyalty.

Baron Humphrey's power within the entire Bonaparte family is second only to the Bonaparte family and the old butler Oakes. Coming from the Palace of Versailles, he has met countless high-ranking officials.

But facing the handsome young man who had just turned sixteen in front of him, he did not show even a trace of arrogance.

Because the eldest lady Natalia told everything she saw and heard after returning to Blue Castle, whether it was the bloody battle with the "Sea Hungry Wolf Gang" in front of the tower or the legendary adventure in the deep sea plane, it all proved that the person in front of her was A young and terrifying pioneer knight is a promising mage, and even has a friendship with a Naga Queen and a legendary strongman!

More importantly, this young and handsome knight is likely to become the future husband of the eldest lady Natalia!

Therefore, the meeting between the two was very harmonious. They complimented each other along the way. Before they arrived at the Violet Castle, they were already chatting happily, as if they had known each other for many years.

"Oh my God! This is your castle! This is the most beautiful and beautiful castle I have ever seen, even more beautiful than the Palace of Versailles where His Majesty is! This is simply a miracle. I can't imagine being on this lonely island. How was such a dream castle built!" Baron Humphrey was obviously shocked by the beauty of Violet Castle. He spread his arms and praised from the bottom of his heart.

"This is the power of magic, which can turn miracles into reality!" Xi Wei replied with a smile.

Baron Humphrey was welcomed into the Violet Castle and sat on the large and comfortable sofa in the reception room. The werewolf maid Cynthia came forward at the right time and poured delicious black tea for the master and guests.

Baron Humphrey's eyes followed Cynthia until she walked out of the reception room: "This is it?"

"As you can see, a werewolf! He comes from the far east and is currently my servant!" Xi Wei responded politely.

"It turned out to be a werewolf maid! Knight Frost, you really opened my eyes. The desolate and remote island that I originally imagined turned out to be so beautiful and civilized. You have built this territory really well! "Baron Humphrey picked up the teacup that was engraved with exquisite patterns and could be called a work of art, and took a sip: "The fragrance is pleasant, it's so delicious!"

A white light flashed in Xi Wei's hand, and a copy of "How a Magician Was Made" was pushed flatly in front of Baron Humphrey by a pair of invisible hands.

Baron Humphrey picked up the tortoiseshell glasses inserted in his breast pocket and put them on his eyes, and then he began to look at them seriously.

After about half a spell, Baron Humphrey, who had already read half of the page, finally raised his head: "Knight Frost, this book can be sold!"

"First of all, the material of this book is very good, far superior to the common book paper on the market today; secondly, the colorful cover has superb painting skills showing the main characters with their own characteristics, and it will not fade, which is obviously a This kind of innovation will attract many people even if they only see the cover! Finally, the story is very attractive. There are very few novels in which magicians are the protagonists. Readers will definitely like this book!"

Baron Humphrey concluded.

Xi Wei had a victorious smile on his face.

"Oh? I don't think so!" At this moment, a high-pitched voice suddenly sounded in the reception room, and then the silver-haired beauty Christine appeared here.

Even though Baron Humphrey was used to seeing all kinds of stunning beauties in the Palace of Versailles and was already well into his middle age, when he suddenly saw Christine's alluring charm at close range, he still couldn't control it and immediately lost his composure. Turned into a pig-like face.

After a moment, he realized what he was doing. He sat upright and coughed twice: "Who is this?"

Xi Wei introduced with a smile: "This is Miss Christine, the daughter of Archduke Philip of the Holy Norman Empire. She is also a high-level magician and is visiting my castle!"

She is actually the daughter of Archduke Philip, the de facto ruler of Spanya!

This Christine's status is much more noble than her own eldest lady!

Baron Humphrey quickly stood up and bowed. His title was much lower than Christine's.

"How about it, Christine? Even people in the industry like President Humphrey are optimistic about the sales of my book!" Xi Wei said with a sense of pride in his tone.

Before Baron Humphrey arrived, Xiwei was talking to Christine. He wanted Christine to help open up sales in the Holy Norman Empire.

As Christine, it is easy to accomplish such a thing.

But Christine is obviously not optimistic about Xi Wei's book. She believes that such a book full of errors will not be able to popularize magic, but will lead to various wrong inducements for readers.

And there was nothing interesting about the story, at least she couldn't understand it at all, except for the writing.

Just now, Kristine was trying to persuade Xi Wei not to waste such good writing skills and that he could complete a more rigorous magic book under her guidance.

Baron Humphrey's answer clearly displeased Christine so much that her voice sounded less soft and seductive than ever.

"I always insist that your book will not sell well, but will make real magicians laugh!" Christine said righteously with one hand on her waist.

"Baron Humphrey, I would like to ask, what are the criteria for a bestseller?" Xiwei did not directly respond to Christine's provocation, but asked Baron Humphrey instead.

"In 1975, there were 12 best-selling books in the entire French literary market. The least one sold 52,000 copies, while the annual best-selling book sold 190,000 copies!"
