Master Tongtian

Chapter 250 The general trend is gradually taking shape (24)

In the afternoon, Rosen arrived in Maple Leaf Town.

Find Mona at the trade transfer station.

After roughly talking about the situation, he gave the final conclusion

"In short, among the thirty ships, we picked ten large cargo ships that transported food, clothing and other daily supplies. The value of one ship was controlled at about 3,000 kronor. After flying a white flag when passing through the riverside town and being caught by the ship tax officer, he cooperated honestly That’s it.”

Mona understood immediately: "Okay."

Rosen looked at the sky and felt that he was running out of time when he returned to Lily Manor today, so he rested overnight at the Blue Sky House and continued on his way the next day.

Detouring to Lily Manor, after Vivian packed her things and got into her own carriage, the two carriages rushed to Crescent Town one after the other.

Last night, Rosen and Vivian had already explained his agreement with Thrandis and vaccinated her. At this time, there was no need to worry about her causing trouble in Crescent Town.

Rosen thought when he returned to Crescent Town.

"Now, there is Jenny, an alchemist, and Vivian, an alchemist, in the town. Later, we are recruiting blacksmiths, tailors, carpenters and other craftsmen who make daily tools, and they open shops in Crescent Town one by one. The town market has taken shape.”

These days, the town is full of craftsmen and merchants, providing various goods to the lords in the town and farmers outside the town.

"By the way, there are still hotels and brothels to open in the town."

These two ancient industries must exist because the demand is always there.

If the lord doesn't open it, then the private person will.

For example, take a brothel. If you want to maintain high moral standards and strictly crack down on pornography, then prostitution will be rampant, and the lord will lose a large amount of income as a result.

Considering that there are no incurable diseases in this world, and prostitutes usually know how to use contraception, it is a proper gentleman's paradise.

Rosen doesn't want to be unique, he has everything he should have, and he just goes with the flow for the time being.

While she was thinking, Vivian got into the Bright Moon Carriage again.

She explained: "I'm bored alone, so I came to chat with you."

She really came here to chat, or to discuss academic matters.

"Rosen, your disintegration spell gave me an inspiration. I couldn't help but think of a question that my predecessors had been thinking about."

Upon hearing her words, Rosen also became serious.

"I guess what you are thinking about is the question of 'how finely can matter be divided?'"

If this question is pushed down, it will lead to atomic theory, and the emergence of atoms is the beginning of modern chemistry.

Vivian nodded immediately: "Ah, it's a pleasure to chat with a wise man."

She rested her chin on her hands, her eyes full of confusion.

"A big stone becomes sand when weathered, sand becomes powder when ground, and no matter how fine the powder is, it becomes slippery mud."

"But it's not the finest. I soaked the sand with the acid extracted from the tongue orchid, and the sand completely disappeared and completely melted into the acid."

"Then I wondered, are there gaps in the acid that allow smaller and finer sand to get in?"

To have such an idea is very close to the truth.

Rosen immediately began to guide.

"I also observed a similar phenomenon, and I came to a conclusion."

"tell me the story."

Rosen said: "I found it when I was bartending."

"I have found that one sebes of alcohol mixed with one sebes of water is always less than two sebes of water."

Vivian's eyes lit up: "Then what is your conclusion?"

"I just guessed that the smallest portions of alcohol and water should be balls of different sizes. After mixing together, the small balls got into the gaps of the big balls, so the total volume became smaller."

"Ah, that's a very interesting idea. But why a ball? Why can't it be a cube or other small shaped object?"

Rosen laughed: "Of course it can be in other shapes. The reason I guessed it was a ball is because both water and alcohol can flow freely."

"But if a lot of blocks stay together, it is obviously easy for them to get stuck with each other, and they will not be so smooth."

Vivian nodded repeatedly: "It makes sense, your idea is very reasonable."

"So, water and alcohol are balls, and rocks are cubes?"

But she soon realized something was wrong.

"But water will freeze. Will the ball turn into a cube?"

She was confused again and couldn't understand.

Rosen didn't say anything more and just laughed.

"There are many doubts. When my alchemy laboratory is built, I will explore them one by one."

Vivian sighed sincerely: "I'm looking forward to it very much."

After that, Rosen began to ask Vivian for advice on alchemy.

Vivian naturally kept no secrets and explained everything to him carefully.

While asking for advice, Rosen had an idea.

'Vivian is determined to pursue the secrets of life, and this knowledge is very important to me. I'll just find some time to build an optical microscope for her. ’

When Vivian's research comes out, he can just use it directly, which saves worry and effort, and satisfies Vivian's curiosity.

It's a win-win situation.

By the time the convoy arrived near Crescent Town, Rosen had a rather in-depth understanding of Vivian's alchemy skills, and he increasingly felt that this was the most basic chemistry from another world.

As agreed, Vivian returned to her carriage.

Rosen used a cleaning technique on the carriage to dispel the faint scent of perfume left by Vivian.

Soon, the convoy arrived near the city wall of Crescent Town. It was originally planning to turn to the temporary camp on the hillside, but was recognized by a Silver Moon Ranger patrolling nearby. .

"Mayor~Mayor~The lord's castle and temple have been built, and everyone has moved in."

Then, he galloped over and led Rosen in front.

Everyone followed the ranger into the town and saw that the town was in full swing. Many roads had been hardened and there were many buildings on the roadside.

Looking ahead, you can see the lord's castle and temple standing high in the center of the town.

In just four days, the changes have been unexpectedly huge.

When driving towards the Lord's Castle, Rosen asked: "Have Madam and Miss Gendeloni also moved into the castle?"

"Living in."

"Is the temple open?"

"It's open. The Great Temple of Silver Moon Castle has sent a lot of people over. There must be fifty or sixty of them."

"Hmm~ It's really good."

He planned to go to the temple later.

He asked again: "Has the hotel or something been built?"

"It's been built, and the hotel is already open for business."

Rosen was very satisfied and waved to Hansen.

"Go, take Ms. Moreau to the hotel for a break, and give her the best room."

"Tell her to let her stay in the hotel with peace of mind, and I will arrange a better and more spacious place for her soon."

"Yes, Mayor."

After a while, Vivian's carriage drove in the direction of another hotel.

Rosen's Moon Carriage drove all the way into the spacious lord's castle.

Entering the castle courtyard and getting out of the car, he found Harrick already waiting outside the car.

He smiled and said: "Mayor, are you satisfied with the construction speed of Crescent Town?"

Rosen laughed and said, "What a great job. It's beyond my expectation."

Harrick asked about the business in the second sentence: "So, the business problem has been solved?"

"solved."

Harrick's eyes suddenly brightened and he let out a long breath.

"Then if this happens, isn't Fubos destined to lose?"

Rosen smiled slightly: "I can't say that, I can only say that it is quickly sliding into the abyss of failure."

The two walked side by side across the castle hall. After walking a few steps, Rosen asked: "Where is Chapollet?"

Harrick's face looked a little solemn: "I'm patrolling outside the town. Brotherhood members often come to cause trouble these days."

Rosen was startled: "The Brotherhood still wants to cause trouble? What's the specific situation?"

Harrick began to introduce carefully.

"In the past few days, many young people have come to seek refuge every day. They come in waves, every few hours, and even at night."

"There are as many as five or six hundred, as few as one or two hundred, or even dozens. In total, there are four thousand people, but the troublemakers are always there."

"Those who defect and those who make trouble are completely different from each other. The former longs for a stable life, but the latter are all dissolute and adventurous guys."

"According to Knight Hamill's estimate, the number of the latter is about eight or nine hundred. They have been frequently appearing on the border recently, harassing farmers in their daily reclamation activities."

Rosen understood: "Those people have turned from the so-called brotherhood into bandits that everyone hates."

Harrick nodded: "Yes, he is a robber. Everyone reviles him, but he is indeed very annoying."

Rosen said: "Is the situation in the brotherhood almost complete?"

"Yes, the farmer who defected brought back a lot of specific information. The main leaders of the Brotherhood and what they did are all clearly understood."

Rosen said: "Then let's offer a reward."

"The bounty on the head of the culprit Lovanle was raised to 300 crowns. Then, 30 people lined up in the back and the bounty was given according to the bad deeds. The total bounty of 3,000 crowns was all spent."

"Except for these 31 people, anyone else, regardless of his original status in the Brotherhood, as long as he can hold the heads of these people, he will be pardoned and his status as a free citizen will be restored."

"In addition, if these 30 people can come here with Luo Fanle's head, they will be exempted from the death penalty and will be expelled from the high ground."

"Yes, Mayor!"

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward.

I just don’t know what Master Horus will do next, or just give up.

But no matter how you do it, it will definitely be some conspiracy and conspiracy that cannot be put on the table. Since the situation in Crescent Town is already established, it will be painless no matter what you do.

Therefore, Rosen no longer paid attention to him.

"Uncle Harrick, please make an announcement for me and recruit a second batch of construction mages, just three hundred."

Harrick was startled: "Huh? That's not enough guarantee for spell casting."

"This is simple. Don't we have 330 spell casting guarantees? It only takes half a day for one person. Anyway, a mage's mana can only last half a day."

The spell casting guarantee is actually registered. There is an upper limit of 8 formal apprentices for an official mage, but the name can be changed, and no one stipulates that a mage cannot quickly change apprentices.

So there is a loophole that can be exploited.

Of course, you don’t really need to change it at any time. When the guild inspector comes to check, you can just change it immediately.

"This seems feasible, then I will send out recruitment."

Rosen entered the lord's castle hall alone.

He designed the castle, so he naturally knew the structure. The front yard was the town office building, and the back yard was the baron's home.

The castle is newly built, so the decoration is of course almost non-existent. Most of the windows in the rooms are not equipped with glass, but it is much better than sleeping in a tent in the wild.

Soon, Rosen found Alice Thrandis lying on a lounge chair basking in the sun on the highest rooftop of the castle.

She curled up on the lounge chair as lazily as a cat, letting the autumn wind gently blow the fiery red hair beside her white jade cheeks.

After seeing Rosen, her eyes were still closed, but a smile appeared on her face.

"Father, I feel the joy in your heart. I think the action should go smoothly."

Rosen hadn't heard Alice call his father for a long time, and when he suddenly heard it this time, he felt a little fresh.

By the way, he is now several centimeters taller than Thrandis, and his body is much stronger than hers. He does look a bit more majestic than his father.

For a mage, some achievements in trivial matters in the world are not worth mentioning, and only magic is worthy of real attention.

He was going to give her some really good news.

So, he walked to the lounge chair, squatted next to her, leaned into her ear and whispered softly.

"Abandoning polarity and maximizing pure mana is the way to high-level logic."

Thrandis opened her eyes suddenly, looked directly at her husband, and then leaned forward and kissed his lips passionately.

Rosen directly picked her up from the chair, put her on the chair, and then held her in his arms.

Thrandis giggled: "Father~~ Do you want to love your daughter under the sun?"

Rosen shook his head and just leaned against his wife, cheek to cheek.

After staying quiet for a while, he whispered in a low voice: "We have to make preparations to deal with the crazy archmage that may appear in the future."

How to prepare?

One of the important points is to obtain more soul knowledge.

Who can I get it from?

Of course it’s Alphroya.

Among extraordinary people, knowledge depreciates very quickly, because extraordinary people have extremely strong spying and learning abilities.

The wisest way is to quickly exchange for a wave of valuable rewards before the new knowledge depreciates.
