Otherworld Qin

Chapter 306
When Sheng Xuan gritted his teeth and answered the number, Julio's face couldn't help showing a trace of rosiness, and then he took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down an agreement. Looking at the numbers on the agreement, Sheng Xuan's heart ached. It was like being bet on a ten thousand catty boulder, which was a complete gamble, but he had no way out.

After the two parties signed the agreement, Julio carefully put it close to his body, and then shouted towards the door, "Come here, serve the wine, bring me the best wine, I want to have a good time with this distinguished guest Have a few swigs."

The wine was so bitter in his mouth, just like Shengxuan's mood at the moment, he couldn't turn his head back, and said fiercely in his heart, "Even if it takes one's life, all those damned flames must be extinguished." Then As soon as he raised his head, he poured a full glass into his mouth, and the wine passed through his throat like a red-hot coal, but it made him feel a little bit happy.

This meal lasted until dinner time, at this time Julio was also drunk, obviously the stone that had been pressing on his chest for so many days was now handed over to Sheng Xuan, and he did not forget it when he kept toasting Repeat that sentence, "You must keep the promise, otherwise I will be severely punished by the military order."

The sumptuous dinner was already on the table, and Reg brought in a shy Josephine. Julio looked at him with his drunken eyes, and there was a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and then a smiling face emerged Come out, wave to him, and pat the chair next to him vigorously, "My good brother, maybe this name will be changed in the future, come and sit down, have a few drinks with me."

When the two were seated, the butler hurriedly arranged the tableware for them. Julio looked at the busy butler and shouted, "Sit down too. The Grand Duke is happy today. It can be said to be a double blessing. And my good niece Josephine has finally found Mr. Ruyi, come today you drink too, we won’t go home until we’re drunk.”

The butler didn't dare to sit down, and while serving a bowl of cheese soup for the grand duke, he said in a low voice, "Your grand duke, you are drunk, you should drink some soup first." "Take it away! Today, the grand duke only drinks alcohol and not soup. "

Julio was really drunk?Lying on the soft bed, Cheng Xuan couldn't fall asleep anyway. He felt that the Grand Duke's drinking capacity would not be that bad, because although his speech was already slurred, the cold star in his eyes never faded away, and he looked at Reg instead. It's even more cold when he's in bed, and what Sheng Xuan still can't care about is the grand duke's cultivation. He hides secrets that he can't see, but what is he doing all this for?Could it be that the Grand Duke's scheming has reached an elusive level?Maybe people really get drunk on happy occasions.

But at this moment, Julio was in a secret room deep in his mansion, and there were several confidants standing below, including Governor Laurent. For the past few days, the confidant of the Grand Duke has been living in the mansion, constantly I'm discussing how to complete the harsh military order, and now I'm here to discuss this matter, "Let's take a look, I have already made an agreement with someone for [-] swords, what do you think about this?"

The following people passed it on to him one by one, and then respectfully returned the agreement to him, but no one was willing to speak first. Julio could not help but frown slightly after looking at it, "Why don't you want to talk? Well, then I Come on."

As he said, he picked up the paper agreement and shook it at several people, "I want you to spread the news as quickly as possible, and collect grain and grass at high prices in various places. I want you to bring 500 million catties within three days. It’s just the first batch, and then 5000 million catties will be provided every month until the billion is reached.”

This sentence was like a meteorite falling into the sea from the sky, causing an uproar immediately, "One billion catties?" Someone suddenly showed a look of shock, but saw Julio slam the paper agreement on the table, "Why? By the dwarf Supervised by artisans, isn’t a weapon mixed with pure mithril worth the amount?”

The man hurriedly explained, "Grand Duke, I have no other intentions, but the number of one billion is too huge. Even if we collect all the barns of the farmers, I am afraid it will be difficult to make up this number."

Lauren smiled at the side, but did not speak, but everyone's expressions could not escape Julio's eyes, "My dear Governor Lauren, what do you think of this matter?" You are rushing to manufacture equipment and complete the task of increasing troops of the empire. It is better to say that you are building momentum and finding a reason for this mission that cannot be completed at all. If these people really complete the agreement, then we can send troops on time. If it cannot be completed The responsibility is entirely theirs. Although we have the responsibility of being unfavorable to the supervision, it can be completely ignored compared to the punishment of the military order. The imperial decree is still very fair. With this agreement, we will not be held accountable too much. , but only the wisdom of the Grand Duke can use him thoroughly."

Hearing this, Julio's pupils shrank immediately, and a trace of cruelty appeared inadvertently, but it only changed into a smiling face for a moment, "No one knows me better than Lauren, okay, since you all have Understand my intentions, then hurry up and do it, how to distribute the quantity is your business, I just want to see a lot of food appearing in front of me within the specified time."

After everyone left, Julio could not help but smile and picked up the agreement again, which clearly stated that each sword would be exchanged for [-] catties of grain. It is doubtful whether he can come up with this amount, but anyway, he has already found someone who is willing to sign an agreement with him. As for the result, it will only be known at that time.

After putting the agreement carefully into the drawer, he stood up and picked up the wine glass, but just as he put it to his mouth, he frowned suddenly, and then poured out the wine inside with a wave of his hand. He still took the wine from the table, obviously At this time, not in his mood, he took out a bottle of spirits from the wine cabinet next to him. There was a high-level fire magic crystal soaked in the crystal wine bottle. For him now, only this kind of wine could Enough taste.

While downing a glass of wine, he murmured a name, "Regg, Reg, why did you appear in front of her at this time? Could it be that all of this was arranged by God?" Then he simply Picking up the wine bottle, he poured it down wildly, and in a blink of an eye, only the magic crystal that hit the bottle was left.

Early the next morning, Chengxuan was brought by Reg to meet Julio. They had one more important thing to do during their trip, which was to find a master of space magic and open up a storage space on Nashi.

"This matter..." Julio pondered for a moment, and couldn't help wiping his chin with his hand, "It's really difficult, masters of space magic, I really don't know any of them, and even if I do, it's not easy to see them." I have arrived, but I can recommend someone to you, as for whether this person can help, I can’t guarantee it.”

The person Julio said was actually in the Mercenary City, which surprised both Shengxuan and Reg. They hurried to the Mercenary City with the letter from the Grand Duke, and then followed the address carefully to find a shop door, but they were in the Mercenary City. At that moment, Cheng Xuan showed a smiling face, "Could it be him?"

The old man in the store was also very happy to see Sheng Xuan, and he couldn't help nodding his head in praise, "I didn't expect you to have reached such a level a year later, and you are already an elemental mage of several departments. It seems that the book is really for you. You prepared."

After hearing the purpose of Shengxuan's trip, the old man showed a stern look on his face, and his tone became extraordinarily cold, "Julio, this little guy, will really cause trouble for me," looked at Shengxuan and then He smiled again, "Forget it, if it was someone else, I would definitely not help, and I would drive them out, but since it is you, it is also considered that we are destined, so I will help you this time, but only this time."

When the old man saw the number of Nashi that Sheng Xuan took out, he immediately regretted what he said just now, "You,,, why do you have so many Nashi?" Cheng Xuan smiled and did not answer, but took out a goose from the Naring A gem the size of an egg was respectfully placed on the old man's table.

At this moment, even the old man couldn't help but look certain, and couldn't leave the gemstone anymore, "Sky Crystal, it's really Sky Crystal! I didn't expect you to find such a huge Sky Crystal!" The Sky Crystal Stones are extremely important to Guangming mages. They are not only excellent gems to assist in cultivation, but also can increase the power of light magic. Many people cannot obtain sky crystals, so they use fluorescent crystals instead, but the difference between the two is a world of difference .

In just a moment, the old man returned to normal, and he couldn't help but look sideways at Sheng Xuan, "How did you know that I would like this sky spar?" Sheng Xuan couldn't help smiling, "Actually, I guessed that you are a high-level A master of magic, maybe even a holy magister, otherwise you wouldn't have such unique insights into magic, and after I finished reading the book of the elemental mage, I became more determined about this idea, and through the records in the book It is guessed that you may be practicing light magic, so,,,"

The old man was taken aback for a moment, but then he smiled, "I've put your heart into it, well, I'll help you this time, but I can't complete so many Nashi in a short time,,,," "This time you just need to Just help me refine a piece that can hold 500 million catties of grain, and I will pick up the rest at another time, so thank you for being here, kid."

Breaking open the space, this magic consumes a lot, and the old man is not a space magic, although the light magic can also break the space restraint, but it is more mentally consuming. It took a full day and night, and this was still under the condition of the increase of the sky crystal. When the old man dragged his tired body out of the secret room, he was crying in his heart, and he was thinking whether the kid Shengxuan would give it to him. Is this the purpose of my own sky crystal?
However, this speed still surprised Shengxuan and Reg, because what the tyrant said at the beginning, it is quite time-consuming and labor-intensive to open up storage space in Nashi, and it takes days or even months. The old man has completed it in just one day and one night,
As for the old man's speculation about Sheng Xuan's purpose, he never had that kind of thought. He just planned to ask the old man for some more training methods, because he had benefited a lot from the conversation with the old man before, and in the mine. Accidentally found this piece of sky crystal, and guessed that the old man might be a mage of the light department, so he planned to give it to him this time. If everything was carefully planned by him, it would not be Shengxuan's character.

With a heavy burden on his body, Shengxuan was of course not in the mood to procrastinate too much, but he still took the opportunity to ask some questions about fire magic. After that, the two of them drove all night, and it was already the next day when they returned to Duke Julio's mansion. It was late at night, but there was another surprise waiting for him, that is, 500 million catties of grain had been prepared, and he was waiting for them to deliver. Seeing the square full of grain, Sheng Xuan finally felt a little more at ease. But in an instant, he was overwhelmed by a bigger stone. The food has already been taken from others, so what will he use to fulfill his promise?
"I have already prepared all the food, and I will prepare the rest as scheduled. This is equivalent to handing over my wealth and life to you. I hope Brother Shengxuan will not let me down." Julio patted him He said these words meaningfully on the side of his shoulder, but the hand seemed to be clapping on his heart.

When the two rushed back to the dwarf camp, more than ten days had passed. Looking at the pile of grain, some hungry dwarves simply grabbed a handful and stuffed it into their mouths, but the three brothers took it The man drove away fiercely, not because he felt sorry for the food, but because these people hadn't had a full meal for many years, and it might be dangerous to eat so much raw rice now.

After hearing Shengxuan's words, the three brothers in the stone room turned livid, "You dare to agree to such a condition? You should send the food back, we can't complete this agreement."

Sheng Xuan also knew that this matter would be extremely difficult, but what else could he do otherwise?Looking at the crying expressions of the three brothers, he knew that it was useless to say anything now, so he walked towards the door, but stopped suddenly when he reached the door, and said in a low voice, "Eat the food, I will figure out a way !"
