Western Fantasy: I can brush entries infinitely

Chapter 172 Information Minister, Veronica

When the first rays of the morning sun fell on the streets of Miracle City, the night market closed and some stall owners closed their stalls and went home.

In less than half an hour, the morning market started, all shops opened, and vegetable, fruit and miscellaneous food stalls were set up along the sidewalk.

The adventurers temporarily staying in the hotel began a new day's mission and gathered in the Adventurers Association.

Except for the initial commotion, the adventurers got along well with the residents of the city without much entanglement.

A small number of reckless adventurers were either imprisoned for education or dealt with secretly.

This is the strong style of the Knights of the Round Table.

If you follow the rules, you'll be fine. If you break the law and don't know how to correct it, then I can only ask you to rest in peace.

As the president of the association, Andre naturally knew about the adventurers who disappeared for no reason, but he would not say much, and instead wanted to thank him.

On this morning, Andre invited Gerald to go out for a meal. Just to fill his stomach, there was no need for the two of them to go out in person, they could just let the servants prepare it.

But, they are for new delicacies.

The two entered a restaurant and asked the owner. After hearing what they said, the owner smiled and said, "You two gentlemen are so lucky. Recently, the Food Association updated the food list, and two new delicacies entered the top five. ten."

The 'Gourmet List' is something specially created by the Gourmet Association. Rosalind saw that Rebecca was very skilled in cooking, so she planned this list to increase her influence.

In the food world of Miracle City, the Gourmet Association’s list is authoritative!

Only those who pay attention to it will be obsessed with it, others may only hear about it.

Hearing what the shop owner said, Andre said with a smile: "Then go for these two new delicacies."

The shop owner laughed and said: "I have just learned that if the food is not to the customer's taste, I will give you half the price."

Andre said he didn't care. He often came to this restaurant to eat and trusted the owner's craftsmanship. The owner then went into the kitchen and got busy.

At the table, Gerald, who was wearing a magician's robe, smiled like a chrysanthemum. When he saw Andre look over, he said: "This is the first time I have seen a businessman who doesn't care about money."

Andre was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "They should be grateful to Lord Arnold. The gold coins they need for survival are no longer a constraint on them, and they have enough energy to pursue other more important things."

"Yes, you should be grateful."

Compared to the royal capital, life here makes the two of them feel more comfortable. With their status, they will be respected and awed by others wherever they go, and the same applies here.

However, the people here behave more sincerely, not just in terms of power, but also in gaining respect and closeness because of what they have done, which makes people feel more comfortable.

"By the way, have you been going to that magic and enchantment shop often recently? Pay attention to the influence. The shop owner can be your granddaughter, so don't mess around." Andre suddenly said.

Gerald was stunned for a moment, and then cursed with a red face: "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just having an academic discussion! Her magic enchantment is very good, I'm just..."

"Okay, okay, don't worry. It's my fault, I'll treat you to this meal!" Andre comforted him, and was relieved when he saw Gerald calm down.

At this time, the shopkeeper served two different delicacies and introduced the two of them how to eat them.

"This first one ranks 39th on the gourmet list. It is fried repeatedly in sunflower oil. It tastes the best when it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."

The shop owner had a smile on his face. Seeing Andre and the other two staring at the delicacies on the table with their eyes wide open, he introduced another delicacy: "The second one is ranked 46th on the delicacy list."

Scenes like this happen from time to time. Rosalind has understood the "food business". Everyone cannot survive without "food". If it is just to fill their stomach, they only need to spend 1 copper coin to buy a piece of hard bread.

As Arnold's citizens become richer, they should be more pursuing the quality of food, not just a piece of bread, but food that tastes better.

In addition to filling people's stomach, such food can also bring happiness and satisfaction.

Therefore, Rosalind's 'Food Business' sells not only food, but also 'happiness'.

Vaguely, Ron felt a subtle change in the territory, which was developing in a good direction.

Seems a little more energetic.

Recently, more business groups from other countries have come to Miracle City, and there are even people with high status who have concealed their identities and entered the city. All of these have been reported to the Lord's Mansion by Marvin.

Ron just said: "Since there is no violation of the law, then treat them like ordinary travelers and don't disturb them."

Today's Miracle City is open to all rivers and is extremely wealthy in terms of financial resources. It is normal for it to attract attention from many parties.

As long as they don't have extra thoughts, Ron won't care.Maybe after seeing the prosperity of Miracle City, there will be opportunities for cooperation.

It is worth mentioning that because of the 'success' of the great businessman Leo, some traveling businessmen with evil intentions followed suit. One businessman stood out and met the lord Ron.

A real person demonstrated the fairy tale - The Emperor's New Clothes on the spot.

He wanted Ron to buy the gorgeous clothes in his hand that only smart people could see.

Afterwards, Ron asked him to put on his 'clothes' and walk around Miracle City three times before letting him leave.

This incident was talked about a lot by the citizens, and was heard by the traveling merchants who came and went, and they restrained their thoughts.

Baron's Mansion, in the office.

A curvy figure stood in front of the main table. Her simple clothes did not reduce her charm in the slightest. Her intellectual face and eyes full of reason were what attracted people.

Joyce's cold voice sounded in the room and said: "The royal family requested the Arnold Territory to triple the military rations, and the other party is willing to pay in full. I have seen the territory's food reserves and it will not affect us. I think we can agree."

Ron put down the letter sent by the royal family and now added three times more military rations. It seemed that the war with the Kingdom of Nebonir had reached an uncontrollable point. If this continued, one of the kingdoms might eventually perish.

He couldn't guess what Meredith V was thinking now, but he was sure that the other party was not that simple, and there must be a hidden purpose.

"You can decide."

Ron said calmly, no matter what the purpose was, it would not affect him.He has many talents under his command and is powerful enough that even if something bad happens, it will be resolved before it threatens him.

"Yes."

Joyce's eyebrows trembled, and as she bowed and sat down, Ron's voice came again.

"I heard that Melitoya often goes to your place to read books during this time?"

After Xavier's personal teaching, Melitoya's knowledge reached the standard for admission to the intermediate college. The advanced college is a level where those over 14 years old have achieved certain results and need to continue their studies.

The junior college teaches basic knowledge, including arithmetic and literacy, and the ability to write letters and communicate normally.

When you reach the intermediate college, you have a certain academic bias and you can choose to do what you are good at. Most of the students in this period are between 9 and 14 years old, and they can basically establish the concept of loyalty to the lord.

Higher up in senior colleges, students can enroll at their own discretion. Generally speaking, senior colleges are a must-attend institution for the children of wealthy businessmen and the sons of powerful men. Not only can they learn more advanced knowledge there, but they can also interact with people of the same class. produce communication.

If children of common people want to change their destiny, going to a senior academy is one of the ways out.

Of course, there are certain thresholds for entering senior colleges, and you need to meet the assessment standards before you can enroll.

Junior and intermediate colleges do not have this restriction. In fact, it is enough to master a means of survival in intermediate colleges.

Ordinary civilians do not need to go to advanced colleges. They are for people who have goals and want to continue to improve their abilities.Melitoya was able to reach the entrance threshold of the intermediate college at the age of more than six years old. She was considered a genius among ordinary people, but this was because the educational resources she received far exceeded others.

As far as noble status is concerned, it is considered average.

So far, Ron has not discovered where her talent lies. Perhaps it is just like when he saw Melitoya's character card, she does not have any talent.

When he heard that Melitoya often went to Joyce's library recently, he became curious. Could it be that this sister had found something she was good at?

Joyce did not expect that the lord would ask her about this. She hesitated for a moment and then said: "Yes, Lord. Miss will go to my library every afternoon tea time and read books for two or three hours." will leave.”

"Oh? What books are you reading?"

"Part biography of celebrities, part history of various countries in mainland China."

Hearing this, Ron was shocked. Is this the book Melitoya should read?Were you stimulated by something?

Not like her.

Ron immediately asked why. Joyce paused and said, "Young lady wants to learn the unique connotation of a noble daughter."

Ron: "."

The cause of the incident was during a chat at afternoon tea in the garden. Melitoya discovered that she had learned the aristocratic etiquette for so long, but she had only learned the form, and not much had changed internally.

Afraid that his brother would be embarrassed if he appeared in the social world in the future, and wanted to change, Karl made a suggestion——

'It's better to study in books and feel the experiences of those nobles and celebrities, so as to improve your self-cultivation. '

Before the age of five, Melitoya had lived in a slum-like place without any education, so Ron did not force her to learn to be a real noble daughter.

In other words, from the moment Melitoya was given the surname 'Arnold', she didn't need to look at anyone's face except Ron.

As long as it does not violate the law, the so-called etiquette is a means of communication. If your identity is awesome, then everything you say and do can be defined as etiquette.

At least, that's how Ron understood it.

However, he did not stop Melitoya's behavior. Even if he could not learn any noble etiquette, it would be good to read more books.

After coming out of the office, Ron was about to go back to his dormitory to write entries when he suddenly saw a strange figure wandering in the corridor.

It was a maid holding a cleaning tool. She was swaying from side to side as if she was unsteady, raising her head from time to time and looking directly at the sun, until tears fell down her cheeks without realizing it.

From time to time, he would squat by the flowers, open his mouth and swallow a blade of grass, puff his cheeks twice and then spit it out.

Then he stood up and continued to stagger forward.

Ron frowned, "Veronica?"

Her state was a bit like that of a runaway patient. Just when he was thinking about whether to call Mr. White to take a look, he discovered that the direction Veronica was going was to the east courtyard!
When he chased Veronica to the east side yard, he found her squatting on the shore of the lake with her arms around her knees, staring blankly at the lake.

On the lake, a goose head appeared from Sloya, confronting Veronica as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Ron."

A voice came. Ron looked over and walked to the foot of the Mirark tree. Nidhogg looked strangely, pointed at his head, and then said: "Is your maid here?"

He didn't finish what he said, but Ron understood what he meant.

"No! It's just that the feelings are a little richer." Ron denied, and he had some guesses about Veronica's current state.

"No? Do you know that yesterday, this little maid came over for no reason and wanted to swallow my chess pieces? She acted like I didn't exist."

"Then she didn't swallow it, right? It's a pebble after all, and it will hurt her stomach."

"Is that the point?"

"Is not it?"

"Okay, I stopped her and she didn't succeed."

As soon as Nidhogg finished speaking, there was a splashing sound of water in front of the two of them. Sloya appeared from a ball of water bubbles. She looked at Ron and said with a frightened expression: "That person has a complicated heart. Hurry up." Take her away, I can't stand it anymore."

At this moment, the Black Dragon King and the Water Fairy stood on the same front. Ron glanced at them, then walked to the lake, came behind Veronica, and shouted softly: "Veronica."

"Lord Lord!"

Veronica's eyes regained their vitality, and Ron could see three parts of surprise, three parts of loss and three parts of confusion in her eyes, and he didn't understand the last part.

"What's wrong with you?"

Upon hearing this, tears welled up in Veronica's eyes, her petite body trembled slightly, and she sobbed: "Lord, I can't draw any interesting stories!"

"."

Later, Ron learned that some of Veronica's strange behaviors were imitating characters in the story, and wanted to find inspiration from imitating behaviors.

A person with a rich heart and a very emotional heart fell into a lack of inspiration, which was tantamount to a bolt from the blue, which was a huge blow to Veronica.

Ron looked at Veronica who was crying heartbrokenly. He had never thought that a person's cry could express different emotions through fluctuations in timbre.

He was silent for a while and then said: "Do you want to get inspiration? Do you want to continue painting? Do you want to continue letting people see the stories you depict?"

Veronica's sobs subsided a little, then she slowly raised her reddish face and nodded heavily.She didn't want to embarrass herself in front of the lord, but she couldn't control it, and the tears kept flowing endlessly.

Ron understood that, frankly speaking, the stories created by Veronica were very exciting. Ron had read every issue of the comics she drew and became obsessed with them. This was one of the few entertainments he had.

Veronica's contribution to the production of auxiliary teaching materials cannot be ignored. No matter what the reason is, Ron will not leave her alone.

"it is good."

Ron nodded and had an idea in his mind. He said seriously: "Then are you willing to shoulder the responsibility and serve as the Minister of Information?"

"what?"

Veronica was dumbfounded.

-

Less than three days later, the first issue of the 'Miracle Morning News' appeared in the streets and alleys of Arnold's territory, selling for 5 copper coins each.

The content is rich and exciting, including gourmet food lists, recent interesting stories, events in Arnold Territory, and a short story.

These are all completed under the management and planning of Veronica.

　uncomfortable.
