Lux's Farewell

Chapter 766 [0755]

Just as Qiyana and the Radicals were communicating with each other and trying to establish cooperation, a caravan set off from Ixocan and headed north to Parosa.

Nominally speaking, this is a caravan selling jewelry.

In Ixtar, the jewelry industry is very developed. Apart from being used as decorations, many beautiful gemstones can often be processed and solidified to become existences similar to energy cores.

Although the output of gemstone mines in the rainforest is not as good as that of Shurima, considering that the area of ​​Ixtar is not small, the scale of the gemstone industry in the whole country is not small either.

Therefore, caravans that hired high-level elementalists to travel between the north and the south to sell gems were very common here.

However, unlike ordinary gemstone caravans, this gemstone caravan did not drive away Li camel convoys, but instead rode elemental dragons per capita, which can only be described by the word "trench".

You must know that elemental dragons are strictly controlled in Ixtal, and they are usually prohibited from being parked in the farmland area outside the city, and if they enter the city, they have to pay a high entrance fee--the money Karya can afford up, but most merchants are unwilling to pay.

Even if the caravan sells high-margin commodities such as jewelry, it is somewhat extravagant for all merchants and high-level elementalists to ride elemental dragons.

After all, in Ixtal, apart from the cities, there are quite a few settlements in the jungle that are not regularly distributed. These places also have a lot of consumption potential, and riding elemental dragons tend to skip these settlements, Not much good for peddling gems.

Therefore, judging from the performance of this caravan, they seem to have a bit of ulterior motives.

But in fact, they really don't want to drink alcohol.

These merchants and high-level elemental guards riding elemental dragons carry many commodities that are strictly restricted for export besides gems.

Among them, the largest number is the black stone produced in the restricted area!
........................

Riding on the back of the elemental dragon, feeling the howling wind, Anis's mood was not good at all.

To be honest, he didn't want to leave Ixauken and ride the elemental dragon to Kumanggra—although in the eyes of many Ixtal people, riding an elemental dragon to go out is a very prestigious thing, but for For Anis, this is a rather annoying job.

As a descendant of the dignified royal family, now the cousin of His Majesty the King, and his father is a rare elemental envoy in the royal family, Arnis's life in Ixocan is simply more exciting than wonderful.

Although he married and started a family long ago, this extravagant Mr. Arnis is very keen on expanding the royal bloodline. Qiyana's salon is a private party under the cover of the salon, and Arnis's salon is a banker in the name of the salon. lie.

Due to his amorous nature and generous spending, although the name "Anis the Merry" is even heard by the commoners of Ixoken, there are still a steady stream of young women who come into and out of his special salon and voluntarily take on the responsibility of expanding The task of the royal blood.

As a result, due to the fact that there are quite a lot of children, even though Anis is the only son of his father, who completely dominates the subsidy of the inspector of the restricted area, and has a manor outside the city, the expenses are still a bit insufficient.

In addition, he is also over the age of now, and his physical fitness is obviously not as good as before. Even if he is supported by a lot of expensive supplements, Anis, the old scalper, will have to rest for a while.

Therefore, Arnis, who was a little tight and had a sore back, gritted his teeth and chose to leave Ixoken temporarily to do a big business in the north.

The target of Anis's transaction is Black Stone.

A business that doesn't worry about buyers at all.

After all, whether it is Kumanggra or Karduga, the local agricultural machinery and puppets all need external energy sources. In the past thousands of years, the Ixtar Kingdom has been selling them black stones at high prices to drive them. Mechanics and Golems.

Without the Black Stone, more than half of their ancient machines and puppets inherited from the Shurima Empire would have to lie down!

In a previous salon, Anis heard that the situation in Shurima seemed to be unstable, and that the Kumanggra people were expanding their grain planting area, which was when there was a shortage of black stones.

Although the Ixtar Kingdom still maintains the black stone supply of Kumanggra, according to the ancient contract, the black stone supplied by Ixtar is very limited, which is not enough to support the Kumanggra people to expand the cultivated area to their desired area. the point.

Just as the Kumanggra people still explained their situation and needs when facing the special envoy of Ixtar, but as far as Anis knew, Ixtar hadn't made up their mind yet.

Arnis doesn't understand the dispute between radicals and conservatives, but he instinctively senses the uninvigorating atmosphere of Ixocan.

Old Uncle Wang, who believed that his son was useless, did not tell Anisto about the specific situation of the party struggle, but only occasionally mentioned some of his own thoughts to him——Old Uncle Wang did not want Ixtar to be involved In the chaos of Shurima, that's trouble!
Although in the eyes of his old father he is a worthless bastard and in the eyes of others he is a playboy with nothing serious to do, but Anis has never been rebellious and is very self-aware.

Since the old father said that Ixtar should be prevented from being involved in the chaos outside, why not give those Kumanggra people more black stones and let them farm the land honestly?

Isn't that the only connection between Ixtar and Kumanggra?

Satisfying the needs of the Kumanggra people for the black stone, wouldn't it be possible to cut off the connection between Kumanggra and Ixtal!
As far as Anis knew, the special envoy of Ixtal, Kumanggra, would only go back and forth once a year!
Well, he definitely didn't choose to smuggle black stones for his own profit because he didn't have any money. I, Anis, did it all for Ixtar!
Perhaps it was because of his sudden enlightenment, or perhaps the instigation of some cronies. In short, after some persuasion and psychological construction, Anis secretly brought out more than 20 black stones from the restricted area through his father's special identity.

After smuggling out the black stone and simply sealing it, Anis quickly formed a "caravan" with the help of his family friends, and left Ixaucan in the name of selling gems. .

Anis's old father is undoubtedly very supportive of his son's "commercial behavior", and even used his own contacts to hire a lot of high-level elemental bodyguards for him. In his opinion, this is a rare job for his own son. Things other than sowing must be encouraged!
Even if you lose money, that's not a big problem!
So, carrying the black stone and a lot of his own jewels, Arnis left Ixoken and started heading north.

As a result, after flying up on the elemental dragon, he regretted it a bit.

After the elemental dragon flew up, the strong wind almost knocked people over. For an imaginary person like Anis, it can only be described as torture.

In mid-air, rising and falling with the flapping of the elemental dragon's wings, Anis felt like a fool—if he had no money, he could just ask his old father for it, but why did he open his mouth and say he wanted it after drinking too much? What about independence?
With our own identity, why do we have to be independent?
It's a pity that the cowhide has been blown out, and my father has sponsored many gems for free. At this time, I have no chance to go back, and I can only take this trip.

Hurry up and go back, after this trip, I must never show off again.

With such an awareness, Anis arrived in Parosa smoothly. He only landed in large cities along the way and handed over the selling of jewelry to his subordinates. He just walked around the streets to have fun, but the jewelry was sold A lot, but if you count the money, it's a terrible loss.

Realizing this, Anis had to warn himself repeatedly when he was about to land in Parosa City.

"Anis, Anis, you can't go down like this anymore!"

It's a pity that after being down-to-earth, the first thing for Anis is to walk around the streets and have in-depth exchanges with young women who are willing to learn about the royal family...

Three days later, Anis, who felt a little sore in his lower back again, warned himself again, and then announced to the attendants that he would continue to go north.

And hearing what he said, several high-level elementalists in the team showed embarrassment.

They were all hired by Uncle Wang, and their main task was to watch Anis.

As a result, Anis was quite confused along the way, but why did he start thinking about going abroad when he arrived in Parosa?

In this troubled time, it is not a good thing to leave Ixtar casually!
For a while, many people whispered advice to Anis, hoping that he would stop here.

Although I didn't make any money, I thought it was a trip!
You stop here, don't go further north!

But how could Anis agree?
I managed to take out so many black stones from the restricted area, and finally came to the northernmost tip of the kingdom. At this time, instead of rushing to Kumanggra and slaughtering them, I went straight back to the house... Then Wouldn't the crimes I suffered before be in vain?
No, absolutely not!
Facing these persuasions, Anis's attitude was extremely firm, and he even threatened these high-level elementalists in turn, have you forgotten the time when you were high with me?
The advanced elements make them a little awkward.

"Besides, I'm just going to earn a little money from the Kumanggra people, they are the richest!" Anis seemed to have made all the preparations, "Going north today, we will be back in less than seven days, and there will be extra Bonus, wherever you want to go, I can also treat you!"

Having said all of this, the other high-level elementalists have nothing to say, and the few who are still persistent, seeing that their colleagues have "given", can only hope for the local elements in Parasa at this time. The pickets are gone.

However, what kind of people are the elemental pickets in Parosa?
This point can be seen from the time when Kalya applied for Shivana's identity certificate before—for elemental pickets in such remote places, as long as they give money, everything is easy to talk about!
In this way, Arnis passed the last inspection by the elemental picketer very smoothly.

Then, just as he was about to leave the elemental gradient barrier, leave Ixtar, and go to Kumanggra, a team of element pickets newly transferred here discovered the anomaly and chose to step forward to inquire.

This team of elemental picketers will come to Parosa, mainly because of Qiyana's operation. Since Karya "confessed" to her about bribing the elemental picketers, Qiyana has an impression of Parosa. The purpose of transferring people this time is mainly to see if they can catch some pigtails, and then take the opportunity to arrange some of their own people in the border area.

Therefore, this team of elemental pickets came to Parosa under the name of "roving pickets", but they met Anis and his party who seemed to be wrong. =
For these nosy guys, Anis naturally wouldn't have a good face. He simply brought out his father and said, "It's none of your business, get out of here." After speaking, he was about to ride a dragon.

However, for these elemental pickets who came forward to check, Anis's father actually had no weight at all.

Even if they knew the identity of Anis' father, they didn't give him the slightest face. They detained him on the spot and brought him back to Parosa City—now is a special period, and you have to report for approval when you leave Ixtar. I am here honestly waiting!

Anis, who had never been angry before, gritted his teeth in hatred, but there was nothing he could do.

Then, just as he swore to swear that these meddling stunned young men must be unlucky, an accident occurred.

The black stone carefully hidden by Anis was discovered.

When the black stone was exposed, everyone who knew what the black stone was, including Anis himself, was stunned—fuck, someone else took this thing out and wanted to take it away from Ixtar?
The leader of this team of element pickets is Qiyana's confidant, and he is very clear about the focus of Her Royal Highness the Tenth Princess' recent work. After discovering these black stones, he came back to his senses immediately, and then directly chose to detain Anis. Return hastily to Ixaocan.

Good guy, the inspector of the restricted area is guarding himself, stealing the black stone and giving it to his son to send it out of the country!

Is this the face of you conservatives who keep saying "to maintain tradition"?
It's ridiculous enough!
For people like you, do you still have the face to talk about tradition and isolation here?
You say that it is false to stick to tradition, but it is true to seek profit for yourself?
I don't know how much of this kind of filth is hidden under your sanctimonious masks!
Soon, Anis was sent back to Ixaucan. After getting the news, Qiyana immediately found the great element envoys of the radical faction. Openly launched an attack in front of him, accusing the supervisor of the restricted area of ​​negligence!

Facing his incompetent and stupid son, Old Uncle Wang was really heartbroken. He deliberately argued that his bastard had never done such a thing in the past, but when the words came to his lips, they finally turned into a sigh.

He chose to plead guilty, to preserve his dignity for the last time, and resigned from the position of inspector of the restricted area.

So far, this important position has finally been vacated.

　There are a lot of things going on at home recently, the old man is not in good health, and he doesn’t have much time to proofread over and over again, so I have to worry about typos, thank you...
