My Magic Age
Chapter 1457 7. Before departure
After the rainy season, the water level of Weiyang Lake finally dropped, and Qige's lakeside island resurfaced.
Now the new wall surrounding the island is completely exposed on the water, and there are still traces of being soaked in water on the stone wall. After the island pier was renovated, the lawn that was originally submerged by the lake has returned to its original appearance, but there is an additional stone wall around the island, making the island no longer look like the original one.
Ying Li sat on the stone wall of the island and looked out at the surface of Weiyang Lake. From the island, he could clearly see the dock in the distance. When the weather was good, he could also see the observatory of the lakeside manor.

She turned her head to look at the unique building on the island and asked me: "Have you never received any letters from Orui City?"
When I saw her mention Qi Ge, I could only sigh softly and then said: "I only received one letter. Before the summer vacation, I asked the merchants from Qi Yan City. They told me that Qi Yan City has not seen a caravan from the Etia United Kingdom in the past six months. It is said that a war broke out between the lizard tribes in the wild swamp. I plan to go to Qi Yan City in winter. There is something I have been looking for in the swamp forest there. I will ask about the situation of the Etia Union Kingdom at that time."
If necessary, I might go to the Etia Union Kingdom in person, but I didn't say this.
"Can I go with you?" Ying Li asked me.
I nodded and said, "Of course, I may have to ask James to lend me a Construct Knight Corps."
Ying Li looked at me with a smile, the lake breeze blew her hair up, and she asked me, "Are you not going to borrow the Construct Knight Corps of the North Wind Legion from Duke Jingyue this time?"
"In the winter in the north, all the warriors of the North Wind Legion have to fight the barbarians who come out of the ice and snow tundra..." I said to Ying Li.
I guessed that Ying Li might mention the North Wind Legion. After all, the victory of the Yello plane this time made the North Wind Legion accumulate enough glory. Probably no one had ever thought that Duke Jingyue, who only sent out ten Construct Knight Corps, could actually allow Duke Samoyed to regain all the territory of the Yello plane.
The victory of the Yello plane war means that it will not be long before the Construct Knight Corps of Durva Province will completely get out of the predicament.
The Durva Corps under the command of Duke Samoyed is a sturdy and heavy cavalry-based corps in the western part of the Green Empire. Once this corps is freed from its predicament, it will inject a new force into the battlefield of the Green Empire's plane war.
"... Actually, the last time I wrote to Duke Jingyue, asking the North Wind Corps to support the Yello plane, it was also at Zach's request." Although this is no secret, I still think it is necessary to respond formally, after all, Duke Jingyue's gift was due to my letter.
Ying Li smiled even more, and she turned her face away while tidying up her messy hair, so that I couldn't see her smile at the moment.
"I didn't say anything..." she said.
I sighed softly: "The war in the Yello plane was won, and I'm afraid it involves the interests of many lords."
The victory of the Yello plane war will allow Duke Samoyed to obtain a huge fortune, which also means that the Construct Knights of Durva Province will expand rapidly in a short period of time.
There are many lords in the imperial capital who are waiting for a certain opportunity to make money from the plane war. The victory of the Yello plane war will completely disrupt the plans of some noble lords.
Ying Li said: "I will talk to Le Die. This matter needs her support."
I know that the so-called Le Die's support means that she and Le Die will mention something to Prince James at the same time, so that it will be easier to succeed. Although I have fought side by side with Le Die twice, I don't think Le Die will help me for this.
"Let's forget about Le Die's support! If there is time, I will recruit a group of constructed knights in the imperial capital." I said and shook my head with a smile.
Ying Li pursed his lips, and his eyes turned into two crescents at this time, "I almost forgot that you are a marquis. You seem to have never worn that medal."
I have to say that I am ahead of many wealthy noble children in this matter.
Speaking of the noble medal, I remember that I actually wore it once when I attended a private auction.
So I said to Ying Li: "I have worn that medal before, but in the Royal School of Magic, it is better to wear the magician badge."
While talking, Ying Li and I both looked at the green lawn in front of the lakeside island.
"Remember the dance we danced on this lawn that night?" Ying Li spoke softly, her eyes fell on the square in front of the 'T'-shaped villa, where we held our wedding.
"Do you want to dance again?" I took her hand and jumped off the stone wall, ready to walk into the lakeside island with her.
The servants on the island probably saw Ying Li and me a long time ago, and probably didn't see us on the island, so they didn't come out of the villa.
At this time, seeing me jump down from the wall on the edge of the island, a housekeeper came out of the villa with several servants to greet me.
In fact, I have been here several times this year, but I don't usually want to come here because it reminds me of Qi Ge every time.
"There are so many servants in the villa, let's forget it."
Ying Li looked a little embarrassed when she saw someone coming out of the villa on the island. She didn't mean to stay, but walked directly to the dock and jumped onto the boat.
...
In the two days after Ying Li decided to go to the capital of the Jana Sea Clan to attend the funeral of the Grand Princess Jana, I became very busy.
Alia bought a lot of daily necessities for me in the airport town. These daily necessities were prepared for the town of Trum. The post-war Yerro plane will usher in a long recovery period. After the Nibru Spider Man left, this forest will also need a long time to recover. If I don't prepare many materials here, there will be only one channel to obtain them, that is, through the trade route between Tanton City and Pereira City.
Although the Duke of Samoyed hoarded a lot of materials in Pereira City, I feel that these materials are just a drop in the bucket for the entire Yerro plane.
For the remote town of Trum, which is not directly under the Duke of Samoyed, the resources that can be obtained are even more limited.
During the period when I was away from the imperial capital, in order to ensure the connection with the imperial capital, I planned to clear the coordinate points of the Yello plane recorded on the ‘Hammer of Spacetime Breaker’, which means that in the future, I will not be able to go to the town of Trum in the Yello plane at any time and anywhere through the teleportation altar in Xinliu Valley.
Therefore, I planned to prepare a batch of reserve materials for Trum during the period when I was away from the imperial capital.
Qige Trading Company had a magic airship from the town of Guludin in Pai Plateau arrive at the airport. Alia went to the airport in advance to receive this batch of goods. She and her personal maid Betty have been handling this batch of goods in the airport town for the past two days, so they squeezed out some time to purchase this part of materials for me in the airport town.
Fortunately, Alia happened to meet a merchant from Durva Province. The merchant drove tens of thousands of cattle and sheep from Durva Province and currently kept them in a large animal pen in the outer area of the airport town. Although merchants from various slaughterhouses in the imperial capital would purchase cattle and sheep from the Durva merchant every day, it would take at least until the autumn harvest festival to sell out the cattle and sheep at the current rate.
In this way, the high animal pen rental fee has eaten up all the profits from his sale of cattle and sheep. In addition, in order to keep these cattle and sheep from losing weight before they are sold, there is no pasture around the airport town. The grass and fodder chewed by these tens of thousands of cattle and sheep are all bought from some merchants in the imperial capital. The grass and fodder consumed every day alone is another large sum of money. At this time, Alia proposed to buy all the cattle and sheep at once, which almost made the merchant excited to have a heart attack again.
Alia bought all the cattle and sheep in the caravan from Durva Province, and then asked me to rush to the airport town overnight to open the teleportation gate, and transported nearly 10,000 cattle and sheep to the town of Trum.
For the town of Trum and Bernd, this is a day worth celebrating. Bernd can finally get rid of the fishy crocodile meat. He plans to open up a pasture on the north slope outside the town. It is expected that this pasture will at least meet the meat supply of the residents of the town. However, in the process of transporting these cattle and sheep, some minor problems occurred. After entering the town of Trum, some sheep actually crossed the temporary fence prepared by the dwarf Bernd and ran into the alleys in the town, making the streets and alleys of Trum full of sheep.
The main responsibility for this incident should be attributed to Bernd. Due to Bernd's limited height, he did not realize that the temporary fence he prepared was easy for the gazelles to jump over. At the beginning, driven by the female orcs, the gazelles could pass through the fence in an orderly manner. After congestion, a large number of gazelles still poured out of the subsequent portal, and some of them jumped out of the fence.
In addition to cattle and gazelles, a large amount of wheat was transported to the town of Trum, and some daily necessities were almost transported to the town of Trum. Seeing that so many supplies were prepared suddenly, the dwarf Bernd thought I was going to lead the Construct Knights on another expedition.
More than 700 female orcs transported a large amount of supplies, and soon filled the grain warehouse originally built in the town. The remaining supplies could only be temporarily placed in the town's auditorium, which had not yet been built. After the construction, the auditorium could accommodate nearly a thousand people. Usually, folk song and dance troupes would hold performances in the auditorium. The auditorium would also be used to hold the town's citizen assembly or a large celebration ceremony.
The entire main frame of the auditorium has been built, and the walls have been built. However, the dome has not been fully closed for the time being because Bernd needs a large-span stone beam structure.
Climbing up the town's wall, the full view of the town's auditorium can be vaguely seen through the faint mist. This magnificent building looks like a cathedral from the outside, or it can be said that Bernd is completely imitating a cathedral, but there will be no priests and priests in this building, only civil servants in the town.
It can be seen that the town's recent tax revenue must be very good to allow Bernd to undertake such a large building.
You will always see some members of the adventure group wearing light leather armor walking through the streets. Wearing thick, full-coverage armor in the Hierro plane is an extremely painful thing, so most of the time these adventurers will wear their own armor. Put it in a box and carry it on your back, wearing only a single layer of clothing They wear thin light armor and enter the black forest to explore. The recent tasks these adventure groups can receive are some herbal collection, magic ore collection, and hunting swamp giant crocodiles along the river, or discovering a giant crocodile that has been hiding in a deep valley somewhere. Spiders and more.
"The business of the blacksmith shop, magic potion shop, leather shop, and tailor shop here is very prosperous. There are currently three magic potion shops in the town alone. Who would have thought that the ones that bring huge profits to the town are not those in the free market? Businessmen only take advantage of loopholes and try every means to evade taxes, but these adventure groups continue to bring profits to the town." Bernd leaned on the wall with his hands and looked at the prosperous town in front of him.
Almost every brick, tile, plant and tree in this town has Bernd's hard work in it, so his feelings towards this town are also different in his eyes.
Who would have thought that a year ago, he was a lame drunkard who could only lie in the backyard of the tavern, and now he would become the first governor of this town.
"I will leave the town for a while." I stood next to Bernd, looking into the distance with him and said.
"You have never lived well in this small town." Bernd twisted his eyebrows and said unconvincingly.
Some green moss stood out on the wall, which was wet and slippery on the hands, and there was also a fishy smell unique to moss. I took out my handkerchief and wiped my hands, and then said to Bernd: "I mean, it's possible that I won't be here in the next month or two. I can only do this for the material supplies here." "More, you need to find a way to maintain it yourself, and you have to find a way to hold on until I come back."
Bernd was startled, then laughed and said cheerfully: "Oh, don't worry, I will help you take care of the town of Trum. When you come to the town again, the clock tower in the town will probably be built. "
"This time Kalantso, Luka, and Justus are all coming with me." I said to Bernd.
Taking Kalantso away means that all the orc construct warriors will be evacuated from the town of Trum, taking away the tauren Ruka and Justus, and almost all the barbarian slaves, who can be left with Bernd. There won't be many guards, and Bernd needs to solve these problems himself.
"Are you going to prepare to conquer other planes so soon?" Bernd asked me angrily with his big eyes wide open.
"No...just a long trip." I replied.
