Law of the Devil
Chapter 114: The Road to the Imperial Capital
At the end, Sparrow sighed: "Miss Ruolin is in charge of the overall situation in Port Walker now, and she only has less than a thousand gold coins in her hands. According to the size of the fleet of thirty-two ships and consumption, the number of people to eat and drink , The maintenance and maintenance of the ships and the maintenance of the weapons cost nearly a thousand gold coins per month. This is already compressed to a minimum. And this is because the fleet is moored in the port. Once the ship goes out to sea, the cost will be even greater... ..."
Du Wei took a deep breath: "That is to say, instead of bringing me back a copper coin, you still want me to pay for it?"
"Yes." Sparrow also had a bitter face. Originally, he surrendered to Du Wei and wanted to be the captain of the fleet, but now it seems that the real leader only knows about Chai Migui. All going bankrupt.
"If there is no new funds within a month, then my fleet will go bankrupt?" Du Wei asked again.
"Actually, many people have expressed their dissatisfaction. When they were pirates, they could still eat meat and drink. But now they can only eat oatmeal and the cheapest ale. Now everyone is so poor that they can even find the cheapest prostitutes at the port. The money is gone. If Miss Ruolin and Miss Joanna hadn’t suppressed it with force, I’m afraid there would have been riots many times already.” Sparrow said embarrassingly.
Du Wei rubbed his brows. He admitted that what he had thought at the time was a bit whimsical. Although Joanna, a master, was in charge, and Sparrow, a former pirate, was leading the way, the work of hunting down pirates went smoothly. You can get a good fleet without spending a penny, but to operate a huge fleet, the consumption is very considerable! If Du Wei hadn't made a small fortune recently, I'm afraid he really couldn't afford to support such a fleet!
"Okay." Du Wei waved his hand: "Fleet. Although it costs more money, the current problem is that it is not in operation. Now we can only go out but not in. Of course, we can't afford it. We must find a way to make our fleet able to Just turn it into a money-making machine.”
Then Du Wei asked Captain Sparrow to find Made, and he ordered Made to pay 10,000 gold coins from the account to Sparrow to bring back as funds, and then thought for a long time alone.
Generally speaking, I still make money. Although this fleet consumes a lot of money, it is not worth a penny to snatch it. But since there are so many ships, it is impossible to go out to be a pirate. Can find a way to do ocean trade.
Du Wei immediately remembered the snow wolf mercenary group encountered in the northern frozen forest. Beinrich had complained many times that their mercenaries were desperately carrying their heads into the frozen forest to hunt for monsters. However, the price was lowered by those black-hearted businessmen Du Wei also knows that a magic core of a low-level monster can be sold for one or two gold coins at most in a small town on the edge of the frozen forest in the north, but in the south, the price will increase by ten times or even dozens of times! Because although the imperial decree cannot prohibit people from entering the frozen forest to hunt, it is very stuck in trade. Those mercenary groups who have worked so hard to hunt monsters are often unable to sell them publicly, and can only reluctantly sell their goods at low prices to some people with backgrounds. and well-connected merchants.
Those businessmen often have some wealthy nobles from the north as their backstage. After buying those monsters at a low price, they then managed to get the legal procedures. When they were transported to the south, they could be sold at a high price. Once in and out, it was ten times or even a hundred times land profit.
If others can do it, you can do it yourself!
And now I have a fleet, south of the Frozen Forest, the eastern sea area of the empire, and several ports in the north, as long as I send the fleet to the northern port to buy, and then transport it to the south for sale, I will naturally make a lot of money.
The problem is, although I have the halo of Luo Lin's family now, I am not yet an adult after all, and I don't have my own title, and my reputation is not right. If I rashly step into those businesses in the north, I'm afraid it will cause the resentment of the northern dignitaries. And. To turn a large number of smuggled monster prey into legal things, the official relationship, I am afraid that it is not enough to come forward. After all, I am still a child, and I can make small and big troubles on weekdays. If I really want to do such a big business, I don’t have a family It still doesn't work if the official and important members of the group come forward.
After much deliberation, Du Wei suddenly had a strange thought in his mind:
If... if I'm really the heir to the family, that's fine.
When this thought came up, Du Wei was startled.
How did I come here? Didn't I hate that kind of responsible life, kept silent on purpose, and didn't explain when I was misunderstood, so I was sent back to Luolin Plain as I wished, and lived a free life? If he really became the heir of the family, I am afraid that there will be more troublesome things. If he bears the honor and responsibility of a family, can he still live as he pleases?
After thinking about it, Du Wei sighed in his heart. It's better to solve the problem in front of him first.
Afterwards, Du Wei hesitated for a moment. In the end, he chose the newly-acquired President of the United States because he really didn't have any capable confidantes.
Du Wei called George Bush over, told him a few words, and asked him to bring his own letter to the north to find Beinrich, the head of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group. After all, George Bush came from the North, and he had heard of the Snow Wolf Mercenaries. Corps name.
No matter what, Du Wei first wanted to hold back the Snow Wolf mercenary group. The size of this mercenary group is not small. They usually go in and out of the frozen forest, and there are also a lot of goods in and out. First, hold them back and eat all their goods in one bite. , first run your own maritime trade in a small way. Although you may not make a lot of money, it is better than leaving a fleet of ships rusty in the port.
In this way, Captain Jack Sparrow and Mr. George Bush became close comrades-in-arms. After getting ready, the two went north to find the mercenary group.
Three days later, Du Wei finally received news from the imperial capital.
Earl Raymond wrote a letter in his own hand, and sent someone to deliver it quickly. The letter didn't say much, it just said that it was almost summer, and asked Du Wei to rush to the imperial capital to participate in the annual summer festival.
Only a few words, but after all, Du Wei was summoned back to the imperial capital. Mader was naturally very happy for his master. Du Wei was calm and calm, as if he could not see any joy or anger.
Go to the imperial capital?
Hmph. The water in the imperial capital is very deep! Now I am hiding in the Luolin Plain, and I am naturally at ease. But the emperor has a lot of dignitaries, wealthy nobles, and the guys from the temple, as well as the magic union...
How good is Hussein? The number one holy knight in the mainland! But being chased by the temple is like a lost dog.
I have too many secrets in my body now, and they are all a catastrophe of ransacking my family and destroying my family. What if I am investigated by the temple?
It was gnawed so that there was not even a scum left!
The night before the departure, Du Wei had a quiet conversation with Hussein in his small manor outside the castle, and then decided to go to the imperial capital this time, saying that Hussein must never go with him. In the imperial capital There are too many people who know Hussein.
As for Nicole (Medusa), Du Wei hesitated again and again, but still did not take her with her. Although Medusa is super powerful, she would be a powerful bodyguard if she brought her with her. I haven't figured it out. Maybe there will be trouble at any time. If you stay at home, at least one Hussein can control her. If you bring her to the imperial capital, you can't control Her Majesty the Queen.
In addition, Du Wei took Gargamel with him. After all, even if a mouse is a pet, as long as he doesn't speak in public, it's not a big problem.
And after the qo guy. It is useless except for talking and talking about "elegant" topics all day long. It is just a waste of food. But Du Wei thought about it for a long time, and somehow, he still took it with him. it.
That's it. Du Wei packed his luggage, took a mouse and a penguin with him, ordered fifty cavalry guards, and brought some messy things he made by himself. Scattered and set off for the imperial capital.
Originally, the hot air balloon ride was naturally very fast...but there were too many cargoes, and Du Wei didn't have so many hot air balloons to follow. And Du Wei also wanted to take a leisurely walk all the way.
I just walked all the way without talking, but when I came to the Luolin River in the north of the Luolin Plain, I crossed the river and left the territory of the Luolin family, but I saw a horse standing on the Luolin River from a long distance away. On the stone bridge.
Du Wei was riding on the horse, and when he took a closer look, there was only one person on the horse, wearing a gray mage robe, gray hair, gray eyes, a bitter face, and a pair of upside-down eyebrows. It was the Clark magician.
Clark saw Du Wei's convoy approaching from afar, and immediately galloped up to meet him. Staring at Du Wei, who was guarded by Luo Lin's cavalry, he laughed loudly and said, "Master Du Wei, the Magic Union has received the news that you are going to the imperial capital, the chairman of the union, Mr. Mr Godogan specially ordered me to wait for you here!"
After a few thoughts in Du Wei's mind, he jumped off his horse, walked up and said with a smile, "Your Excellency Master Clark, do you know if Mr. Chairman of the trade union wants me to do something?"
Clark jumped off his horse, walked to Du Wei, and carefully took out a high-quality black wooden box from his arms. After opening it, there was a golden badge inside. He handed it to Du Wei, and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Chairman, let me hand it over to you! You are Lord Gandolf's apprentice, and your identity has been recognized by the Magic Union. As Lord Gandolf's apprentice, although you have not yet taken any magic level exams, Lord Gandolf Disciple, you must have extraordinary magic knowledge. This badge is a badge of honor in the magic union. It does not represent the level of magic, but it shows that you are a bachelor of magic recognized by the magic union. Wearing this badge, you can go anywhere in the mainland. All branches of the local magic guild can receive preferential treatment. When you arrive in the imperial capital, Mr. Chairman will personally assess your magical strength, and then give you a level badge."
Du Wei's heart moved. Looking at the gold badge in his hand, the faint magic fluctuations on it could not be concealed from Du Wei's induction.
This is really a good thing. Of course Du Wei knows what this badge represents. Although it is not a symbol of the level of a magician, it basically means that the person wearing this badge is a magician!
The so-called bachelor of magic is equivalent to a "visiting professor" in a university. It is not subject to jurisdiction, but it is an honor and a symbol of status.
"There is one more thing."
Clark took a bag off his horse, opened it, and carefully folded a robe inside. The style was very similar to the magician's robe, but it was neither gray nor white, but a set of pure black robe.
There are also several logos of the magic union on it, as well as some exquisite patterns. Du Wei didn't know what it was, and Clark explained: "This is the robe of a bachelor of magic. The cost of this robe is not cheap. The patterns on it, as long as you When you use magic, it has an auxiliary effect. And when you encounter enemies, you can bounce back some simple physical attacks. In the magic union, only members of the presidium can have such a robe. It is blessed with magic, but Several great magicians of the presidium personally made it. This robe is a status symbol in the imperial capital! There are no more than fifteen people with the status of magic bachelors in the entire mainland magic guild!"
After a pause, Clark took a step back, bowed respectfully, and greeted Du Wei as a low-level mage greeted a high-level mage, and then said with a smile: "The bachelor of magic is a detached position in the union. Wearing this Wearing a robe, walking in the imperial capital, magicians below the sixth level will show respect and courtesy to you."
Du Wei became more and more solemn in his heart.
I just went out, and before I stepped out of the territory of Luo Lin's house, the magic guild showed itself over and over again...
Du Wei doesn't believe that there is a free lunch in the world. The other party has spent money to show favor to him, there must be a conspiracy.
He didn't refuse even now, and Du Wei accepted them one by one with a smile. He put on the black magic bachelor's robe on the spot, and then put on the badge. There were silver arcs of light. Du Wei felt a soft force dragging him, and his body became a little lighter between his gestures. It seems that the blessing magic above is probably physical skills, such as agility Or speed up or something.
Putting on this mage's robe, my body, which was slightly warm from riding a horse, gradually became cooler, and it seemed that it could regulate the temperature a little bit.
Du Wei was happy, thanked Clark, and then Clark joined Du Wei's team, and the group continued northward, towards the imperial capital.
Du Wei finally returned to the imperial capital again, and returned to the powerhouse that he wanted to escape from.
Future development, wait and see! .
