Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse
Chapter 621, What is the name of the ex-husband? (Updated today.)
Hearing the middle-aged man's question, the old man leaned back on his chair and looked at the roof of the shed, his eyes cloudy.
As if reminiscing about the past.
She said softly: "She rarely went out. She planted some favorite flowers in the courtyard and basement, or she was in the study room, reading the books she bought. We were very happy at that time."
"Once she went out and was attacked by wild beasts in the mountains and forests. Fortunately, she was saved by the mercenaries who passed by. But since then, she has become more and more strange."
The middle-aged man frowned as he told the story, and the guards behind him also remained quiet.
Waiting for his next story.
The old man continued: "I didn't notice it at first. I just thought she was frightened and in a trance. But as time went by, the situation became more and more weird. She lost her hobbies of growing flowers and reading books. Sometimes she talked to herself in the air, and sometimes she danced. "
"One night, Gran... she went completely crazy. She ran and screamed like crazy. She rushed into the basement and knocked over the oil lamp. She stood in the fire and looked at me and smiled, as if she had finally succeeded. The devil."
"The fire is getting bigger and bigger. I want to go down and save people, but there is no other way."
"I can only watch as it is engulfed by the fire and disappears."
"My level was too low at the time. If I could have been higher, maybe the ending wouldn't be like this."
The old man's tone was full of regret and unwillingness.
It sounds like the story is not being told for the first time.
The causes and processes are explained very clearly.
Seeing that the story did not continue, the middle-aged man's eyes showed some sympathy, "It's not your fault."
There are many monsters that confuse the mind, and similar stories can be heard in past stories and rumors.
Low-level humans are most likely to have this kind of thing happen in the wilderness.
The old man nodded, "Everything is over. I just hope she doesn't blame me."
"How could she blame you for such a dedicated gentleman?" the middle-aged man comforted, seeing that the atmosphere in the room was too depressing.
I found a new topic, "In the afternoon, I will visit the island owner. Do you want to come with me?"
The old man pondered and shook his head, "I want to visit my friends on the island first, and then I will visit the island owner."
"That's fine."
While the two were talking, the place below fell into chaos again.
Look down the open window.
The bard, who had rested, walked up again, applied two states to himself, and said loudly: "The following is a great detective story..."
"Finally the great detective story."
"Miss Penny's story is so depressing, I'm still willing to listen to it."
"No matter how many times I listen to it, this plot of finding the murderer through details is still as exciting as ever."
"No one can deceive the island owner, no matter how good he is at lying."
Amid the chatter of the drinkers, the bard also began his own story.
In the private room upstairs, the middle-aged man listened carefully to the story.
The old man's eyes flickered.
…
The island owner's mansion.
The three caravan representatives sat down respectfully.
The maid brought tea and cakes.
The first person said: "My lord, I am the vice president of the Bucks Chamber of Commerce. This is a gift for you. I hope you don't dislike it."
With that said, three exquisite wooden boxes were taken out from the space ring.
Open them one by one.
On top is a pair of beautifully patterned silver cups.
Inside the wooden box in the middle is a porcelain plate with a similar enamel finish in the center.
At the bottom is a jade-white hollow ivory carving that resembles ivory.
Everything is exquisite.
It belongs to the rich and powerful and is a favorite collection.
"Island owner, I am the regional representative of the Erlevi Chamber of Commerce. This is our gift. They are all items produced by the chamber of commerce. I hope you don't dislike it."
The second chamber of commerce representative spoke.
Also take out a gift from the space ring.
There are two in total, one is exquisite jade, and the other is also porcelain.
"Sir,..., this is the gift I brought."
Immediately afterwards, the third person also brought out a gift, which was a fine rolled carpet and several bolts of brightly colored cloth.
These should be products of their chamber of commerce.
The shape and style are very exquisite.
They are also the luxury accessories that the rich and powerful in this world prefer.
But for Wu Heng, I don't really like it that much. I feel that it has no use other than being good-looking.
Might as well get yourself some copper and melt it to make bullets.
"Thank you, I like the things very much." Wu Heng thanked you with a smile, turned around and said, "Minnie, take these down first, then go to the study and get three of the exhibits I prepared."
"Yes, Master." Minnie put away the gifts and put them on the cabinet shelf at the back.
Then he walked towards the study upstairs.
Wait for Minnie to leave.
Among them, the vice president of the Bucks Chamber of Commerce spoke respectfully and said directly: "Island owner, in addition to being invited to participate in the exhibition this time, I also want to open a store on the island."
"Treasure Island is being expanded. You are welcome to open a store on the island." Wu Heng said directly.
The other party continued: "I just want to ask you in advance, will the street lights on Dengta Street and the central area be used in the newly developed streets? You also know that the shops on the main road have been sold. If we want to open a store, we can also Can’t choose a spot over there.”
One person said, and the other two nodded.
It sounds like they want to choose a location with street lights to open a store.
Wu Heng said in a positive tone: "Don't worry about this. The street lights will cover all the commercial streets developed in the back. Just don't choose a place that is too remote."
"Then we are relieved." The three smiled and nodded.
As they were talking, Minnie came down from upstairs.
Holding three thin gift boxes in her hand.
"Master." Minnie called out obediently and put the gift box on the table.
Wu Heng waved his hand and said, "For the three of you, it is also our latest gift."
The three of them said a few polite words and still took it in their hands.
Open the gift box to reveal a round object.
The surface is smooth and shiny, and it looks very finely made.
Wu Heng introduced: "This is a fountain pen. We have improved the product through the quill pen. It can be more convenient to carry and write. It will replace the quill pen in the future."
The three looked at the fountain pen in their hands with some doubts in their eyes.
After careful observation, they gently opened the pen cap directly with force, revealing the nib inside.
Seeing the lines on the nib, their eyes also condensed.
So fine!
There are also patterns on it.
"I'll show you."
Seeing that several people didn't know how to use it, Wu Heng took out a fountain pen from his space ring.
Under the gaze of the three people, he began to demonstrate.
"This is the pen cap. You can write after opening it."
Then he unscrewed the back end of the pen to reveal the ink sac. "Here is the ink sac. Just suck up the ink and you can write normally. You don't need to carry it with you every time like a quill pen."
Just a little demonstration.
The three of them already understood the purpose and characteristics of the fountain pen.
They looked at each other, with surprise and disbelief in their eyes.
It doesn't look difficult, but it is definitely a very clever design to improve the quill pen into the current fountain pen.
But not everyone has a space ring to hold a quill pen and ink.
This fountain pen solves all the disadvantages of the quill pen very well.
It looks like it's just an improvement.
But the practicality has increased sharply.
Needless to say, this product will definitely become popular and become the best-selling writing tool.
Moreover, the workmanship is very fine, especially the soft ink sac. If you want to imitate it, you don’t know what materials to use.
“Did you design this?”
“Master, has the fountain pen already been sold in the market?”
“I think we can talk about the agency sales.”
The three of them were a little excited and spoke.
Wu Heng smiled, “It has not been sold to the market yet, but it will be exhibited at this exhibition. It will not be too late to discuss cooperation after we have determined the price. Moreover, there are many styles, which are also very beautiful.”
The three of them were stunned, and immediately nodded and agreed.
It seems that this exhibition will really have some new items that will subvert the past.
As the few people were chatting, footsteps sounded from the courtyard.
Robe walked in with ‘Sanara’ in a luxurious long dress and the accompanying housekeeper.
He glanced at the people in the room and bowed slightly, "Master Island Master."
Wu Heng nodded and introduced: "This is the president of the Star Flower Chamber of Commerce, 'Shanara', and also the consultant of this Treasure Island Exhibition, responsible for the venue layout and item selection."
Three people came from outside.
But obviously they have also heard of Shanara's name.
Immediately stood up, "Mrs. Shanara."
"Sit down!" Shanara said lightly.
The three of them sat down, and Shannara asked with great aura: "Are all your chambers of commerce going to participate in the exhibition?"
One person answered, "Yes, we have registered with the city hall."
Sannara then asked, "What goods are you participating in?"
"We have some exquisitely crafted silverware, which is very popular among the dignitaries and the royal family."
"We have prepared some cloth and tapestries here, and the quality is also good."
"We are jade jewelry."
Sannara nodded, "The daily necessities exhibition area is on the first floor, you can bring the goods in tomorrow afternoon, don't go too early, give the upstairs exhibition area time to enter."
"Yes, yes!" The three of them nodded immediately.
Sannara's joining officially turned the chat into work.
They were all talking about the exhibition.
They sat in the room and chatted for a while.
The three of them got up and said goodbye.
Wu Heng and Shannara sent them out the door together and waved goodbye.
Returning to the room, Shannara said: "It's not a big deal, why did you ask me to come here?"
"With you here, I feel at ease." Wu Heng stepped forward and hugged the other's shoulders.
"You are so lazy. Leave everything to us." Shannala complained.
Just said two sentences.
Minnie went to open the door again, and then came back and said: "Master, two more caravans are coming."
Wu Heng glanced at Shannala.
He kissed her hard on the face, then pulled away, "Bring them in!"
...
Dusk.
After dinner, Wu Heng went upstairs and entered the study.
I originally wanted to go to the zombie world to upgrade Beni today, but many of those who came to the island came to visit me at the island owner's mansion.
I couldn't close the door and receive them.
One day passed.
It's not a bad thing that so many people came to the island.
These powerful businessmen came to the island, which is a publicity for the island and also expands its reputation.
In the future, it would be nice to create a place for vacation and tourism.
As for the exhibition, tomorrow is the time for all the goods to enter the venue, and it will be open to the public the day after tomorrow.
Wu Heng walked back to the study.
Sitting aside, Glenda put down the pen in her hand at the desk and said, "Tomorrow is the time to distribute newspapers. It coincides with the exhibition. Do you want to postpone it a little longer?"
It's time to publish the newspaper again.
Wu Heng shook his head, "No, just sell it normally. It just happens to take advantage of the caravans arriving on the island to show the popularity of the newspaper."
"Yes, that's okay, I'm much more thoughtful than before." Glenda praised with a smile.
Xiaoxiao also pinched his waist, "Yeah, uncle has made great progress."
Penny snickered.
Wu Heng looked at Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, when this time is over, let's go back to your mother's house and see how you are doing with your skills?"
"Okay, I miss my mother too, but when it comes to skills, uncle, don't have too much hope." Xiaoxiao looked like I knew the outcome.
"Have faith in your mother."
"Well, I hope she can succeed." Xiaoxiao said.
Wu Heng glanced at her and asked: "When your mother has learned the skills, how else do you want to help her?"
"Me?" Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought, circled two or three times in mid-air, and then said: "Let her level up, or find her a boyfriend, I don't know... we'll talk about it then."
Good guy, quite avant-garde.
I also want to find a boyfriend for my mother.
"Then we'll talk about it then."
"Then I'm going to watch a movie." Xiao Xiao said and left directly.
Penny also left and went to watch a movie together.
Wu Heng stood aside and poured himself a cup of tea.
His eyes fell on Glenda, who continued to read books.
Curiously, she asked: "Glenda, I haven't asked you yet, what is your ex-husband's name?"
"Ex-husband? What a strange title. It sounds like I have had several ex-husbands." Glenda looked over angrily.
"Call him whatever you want, I don't know what to call him." Wu Heng took a sip of tea.
"Magnoro, a bard."
"How are you sure it was him who set the house on fire, or whether you turned into a ghost and saw him." Wu Heng continued to ask.
Glenda instantly became a little cold and panicked.
Even in its translucent state, a sense of panic can be seen.
No one would want to recall bad experiences, especially death.
Granda said: "I was still conscious at the time, and he tied me to a chair in the basement, broke the oil lamp, and watched me being engulfed in flames."
"I became a ghost. I don't know how long it took. My home has been in ruins. It must have been a long time."
Wu Heng nodded, it seemed that the other party really wanted to kill her.
Taken to the basement and broke the oil lamp.
In that kind of environment, there is no way to escape.
"I understand. Think about where he might go. After our exhibition is over, we will go find him. We will see people dead or corpses." Wu Heng said directly.
This kind of hatred is okay.
There is little room for remission.
"Okay." Glenda forced a smile, "If you had taken over Wrentam City earlier, these things might not have happened."
"Don't think too much, I will help you get revenge." Wu Heng said in a serious tone.
"Yeah." Glenda nodded.
"I'm going to rest."
"Okay, take care of yourself and tell your little maids to keep their voices down." Glenda teased.
"You must be eavesdropping!"
…
The night passed.
The streets in the early morning were filled with heavy humidity.
Gradually, the number of people on the street gradually increased.
At this time, the newspaper sellers appeared in everyone's sight.
He quickly stood at various intersections.
Hold the newspaper in your hand high.
Shouted: "Take a look, take a look, a new issue of the newspaper, the West Street Exhibition will officially start tomorrow, all caravans will display their products, a new story of the great detective is out, a new case, a new story, the same excitement, 65 coppers, First come first served…”
Almost at the same time, similar shouts rang out from every section of Treasure Island.
…
Whooped.
The dense crowd instantly enveloped the newspaper seller.
There are several layers inside and outside.
"There are new stories, and the detective is not finished yet."
"Great, I have a new story to listen to."
"I don't know what the case is this time."
"Don't squeeze, there's nothing to squeeze for."
