Arcane Lord

After leaving Golden Maple Manor, Xia Duo and Oripus returned directly to Mellon Market. Shop No. 18 was not only a street-facing shop, but also had a large area inside. Xia Duo used a separate lounge.

The meeting with Larian went smoothly, somewhat beyond Shado's expectations. Although the two parties did not discuss urban planning or streetlight advertising in depth, when he and Oripus left, Lairles told him privately——

Larian will convince the Council of Elders to approve the streetlight renovation project in the city of Everriska, and will invite Oripus to serve as the chief consultant for the renovation project.

The implication is that preparations can be made in advance. How to modify it, whether new additions are needed, and a series of other issues can be discussed.

Xia Duo handed over the matter to Oripus. He didn't have many requirements for the street lamp renovation plan. As long as he could put up billboards or perform magic projection, it would not affect the delivery of information.

…

Soon, the time came to the next day.

Most of Shado's consciousness once again transferred from his body to his incarnation. In the lounge at No. 18 Melon Market, Shado's incarnation suddenly opened his eyes. The protective magic around him remained the same, and Oripus did not leave any message.

He stood up and moved his body and walked out of the lounge. Outside, the sound insulation was not that good. There was also a corridor across the street, and he could hear the sound of the outermost floor of the shop.

There were not just one or two voices, but many voices mixed together, which seemed a bit noisy.

After listening carefully, Xia Duo understood what was going on. It turned out that Oripus had already released the news, which was the free strategy proposed by his body. Now there were many heads of chambers of commerce outside who came to consult.

Not only the chamber of commerce, but also some ordinary chambers of commerce came to consult.

Sha Duo could even hear some elves asking if they could add a few more trial quotas. Oripus had obtained Sha Duo's authorization in advance and answered them one by one.

Of course, trial quotas are available, but quotas outside the plan require recipients to pay a certain price, such as recommending two new customers.

It is not necessary for new customers to purchase and sign a contract, as long as they come to the site. After all, no matter how low the price of the Void Warehouse in the Tower of Time is, it cannot be as low as cabbage price. The bottom line Sha Duo gives to Oripus is one thousand gold coins per month. .

However, the minimum rental period is five years, and the renewal fee is optional. The purchase threshold is not low.

Some small merchants may be able to afford it if they bite the bullet, but there is no need. At this stage, this thing is not for them at all. In the future, Xiado can launch a version more suitable for ordinary people, and it will be much cheaper by then.

As for when the new version will be released, you need to wait until the design and construction of the Void Warehouse Mystery Lock is completed. Otherwise, there will be too many ordinary users to manage it, and the maintenance cost will increase geometrically.

At this stage, instead of launching a personal version of Void Warehouse, it is better to sell dimensional bags directly!

…

Since there was no news from Doum, Shado decided to stay here and take a look. Although he had just reached a cooperation with Everesca and did not need to worry about anyone causing trouble here, the scene was so hot. It inherently contains risks.

Outside, the elves continued to ask questions. Oripus had already said some things more than once. There was even a projection display in the store, but he still repeated it over and over again -

“The Void Warehouse of the Tower of Time has been certified by the Council of Elders of Evereska and is safe and reliable. During the promotion period, new users can order at least one year and enjoy a 20% discount. The more you order, the more cost-effective it is!

"Regarding the trial quota, every time you refer two new customers to the site, you will receive a one-month free trial experience. The more new customers you bring in, the more experience you will have. The quota is limited, so act quickly.

"..."

Oripus's passionate slogans over and over again made Xia Duo suspect that he was a fake person from time to time. However, after repeated confirmation, he had to admit that Oripus was indeed the most businessman in the Silver Leaf family. one.

…

The atmosphere in Shop No. 18 is very hot right now, and some customers even place orders on the spot, but most of them are still on the sidelines, or just come to get a free trial quota.

But in any case, excitement itself means influence. Seeing this scene, Xia Duo doesn't have to worry too much about the future development of the Chamber of Commerce.

…

Chateau quietly left the shop through the back door. After shopping around Mellon Market for several times, he still couldn't wait for news about Dumu, which made him feel a little bad in his heart.

So he directly sent a message to the other party, asking what was going on and whether something happened to Team Jianfeng.

Doom's reply came a bit slowly, and also brought some not-so-good news——

“Jianfeng Team and the newly dispatched team successfully completed the handover, but an accident occurred on the way back to Everesca and contact was lost!

"This matter has caused quite a fuss. Ambassador Tirion has already convened an alliance meeting and is preparing to question Yeerlan. This matter is 100% inseparable from Yeerlan!"

Ambassador Tirion is the permanent representative of Netheril to the Northland Alliance. He is also from the Seven Towers. Originally, after the new covenant was signed, the permanent representative to the Northland Alliance needed to be re-appointed.

Before the appointment, authorization from the Parliament was required. This was not a simple process, but because of Tirion's excellent diplomatic resume, the appointment was approved in advance before the Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the Parliament was fully established. Appointment of Leo's Permanent Representative to the Northland Alliance.

Representatives of the five major countries of the Northland Alliance have the authority to convene alliance meetings, and must receive a response. It seems that from the perspective of Ambassador Tirion, the loss of contact with the Arrow Wind Team is no longer an ordinary incident.

After all, the alliance meeting was not called when Myrceladio's team lost contact before. It was the first time that the alliance's investigation team completely lost contact without any news being sent back!

Now that Xia Duo had learned the news, he couldn't help but look a little dazed. Now this incident confirmed his previous guess. Mycelatico's team may have discovered something and was silenced by Ye Erlan.

The Jianfeng Team survived for various reasons, but now that someone is pursuing this matter, they are still dead.

Thinking of this, Sha Duo couldn't help but ask Doom, "Is the mission that Arrow Wind Team is currently performing also in Ye'erlan?"

"Yes, most of the recent field missions have been concentrated in Ye'erlan and Sluvende. Among the members of the Arrow Wind Team, there are more Ye'erlan elves, so they were assigned to carry out the mission in Ye'erlan."

I see!

However, there is still a question in Xia Duo's mind, that is, there are so many teams going to Ye'erlan to perform tasks, are these two teams the only ones who accidentally discovered something?

Will other teams also make discoveries?

Thinking of this, Sha Duo once again asked to see the relevant files, and Doum agreed. However, because the alliance meeting was about to be held, Doum had other things to do and could not accompany Sha Duo in person.

So a director of the Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory, who was also from the Seven Towers, was arranged to assist Shado in searching for information with Doom's authorization.
