Master Tongtian

Chapter 298 You don’t kneel down? (13)

About half an hour later, ten microscopes were delivered to Mona.

Each microscope is packed in a delicate wooden box. The size of the wooden box is 50 cm high, 30 cm long and wide, and weighs 15 kilograms. It is neither light nor heavy.

After all, it was a big deal worth one hundred thousand crowns, and Mona didn't dare to neglect it.

Looking at the weapon-making apprentice responsible for the handover, she asked cautiously: "Can I inspect the goods?"

This apprentice is already quite old, nearly 30 years old, with a square face, a serious expression, thin lips tightly pursed, and some gray hair, which gives people a very hard-to-talk feeling.

He introduced himself first.

"I am the weapon-refining apprentice Hazard, and I will also be your accompanying technician. All my expenses will be borne by the lord, and my job is to assist customers to better use the precision magic tools produced by my Crescent Territory."

Later, he decisively rejected Mona's request.

"Miss, the microscope has been carefully inspected when it leaves the factory to ensure that everything is perfect before being packed into the box."

Mona immediately begged softly: "Just try one, okay?"

Hazzard looked ruthless and solemnly said: "Miss Mona, don't you believe in the lord's credibility?!"

He is actually a ruthless man.

Mona felt that she had kicked an iron plate and smiled awkwardly: "Of course I believe in the lord's credibility. Then let's load the car."

She was about to tell Lifu to move the goods.

"Wait a minute!"

Hazzard called stop again.

"Miss, the microscope is a precision instrument, and any error may cause the instrument to fail."

"When loading the car, please first lay enough thick hay on the bottom of the car. In addition, buy a sufficient amount of thick cotton cloth and wrap it carefully, and wrap it in at least five layers. They should also be stuffed with cotton to prevent collisions."

"Finally, I will also use the Weak Thro Levitation Technique and the Weak Constant Temperature Array on the truck body."

"The former prevents bumps. The latter prevents severe temperature changes from deforming the instrument."

Mona immediately felt that this technical specialist was very professional and praised him repeatedly.

"It is indeed an instrument that can penetrate the most minute mysteries."

Mona immediately commanded the servants.

"You, go to the market and buy a pile of hay, thick cotton cloth and cotton. The thicker the better."

After buying the things, Hazard immediately began to command Lifu.

"First, carefully arrange a circle in the truck compartment. The bottom and four walls must be fully padded."

"Yes, that's it.

"Okay, now you can move it up. Move it gently, hold it gently, put it down gently, pay attention to the up and down position, and never turn it upside down!"

"Stuff cotton between the boxes. Yes, stuff them full. Don't be stingy with the cotton. How much does cotton cost?"

"Okay, everyone, step aside, I'm going to start casting spells."

Finally, the microscope was installed securely, and other goods from Crescent Town were also delivered.

These goods include 1,000 advanced versions of mithril petrification staffs, 100 pairs of precision-focusing binoculars, 1,000 magical instruments and rune stones of various grades and functions.

They look like a lot, but they are actually not very big. They are all high-value-added goods.

Its total value has reached 250,000 crowns.

In addition, there are ten sample rifles, but they are taken to various temples for promotion.

During the loading process, the weapon-making apprentice Hazard gave careful instructions and was meticulous in not expecting the goods to be flawless.

In fact, from today on, this will be his main job.

He is nearly thirty years old, has low-level magic power and average weapon-refining talent, but fortunately he has a good memory and an extremely stubborn and rigorous character.

Although his craftsmanship is average, he is familiar with the basic principles, maintenance methods, and simple repairs of each product in the workshop.

After being spotted by Rosen, he was assigned a position as a technician accompanying the caravan.

Because he had to leave his hometown and travel with the caravan, and the task was also important, Rosen gave him an excess monthly salary of 80 kronor, as well as food, accommodation and even entertainment subsidies.

For Hazzard, this is a high income that is unimaginable.

He was born in a farming family, and all his relatives and friends were farmers digging in the mud, and none of them earned more than 20 crowns a year.

He is truly a proud ancestor now.

In fact, when they learned that he had been accepted by the lord as a weapon-making apprentice, the village matchmakers lined up in front of his house.

His two younger brothers also directly married the beautiful girls of their dreams.

Therefore, he cherished this opportunity very much and was very grateful to the lord.

The value of the goods was very high. Before departure, Mona did not dare to neglect and hired a large number of experts to guard the convoy.

When businessmen do business, every second counts.

After loading, the convoy immediately set off and headed south to the highlands.

Mona is an experienced businessman and has the most trust from Candela. At this time, she made such a large business and personally escorted the car along the way.

The goods came out of Crescent Town and quickly went south along the flat petrochemical road to the Amber River Wharf in Maple Leaf Town. After the goods were boarded, the three large ships headed south along the river.

When passing through Fanggu Town, they picked up vats of clay potions and filled the fleet more than half full before continuing south.

Passing through the riverside town of Baron Dumont, we once again loaded up the riverside town’s specialties and filled the boat to the brim.

In terms of cargo volume, the cargo of the latter two lords was more than ten times that of Crescent Town, but in terms of value, it was less than one-tenth of the former.

According to Mona's personal opinion, she is too lazy to do this business, but this is just a matter of human nature, so she can only accept this business that does not make much money.

Finally, the fleet merged all the way into Hanshui River, and after walking down for half a day, they arrived at the junction of the three realms.

Continuing southward is the East Territory, and turning to the right is the Middle Territory.

In terms of alchemy technology, the Middle Kingdom also lags far behind the Eastern Territory.

In terms of social vitality, Zhongjing is also far inferior to Dongjing.

But in terms of academic atmosphere and affluence, Zhongjing, where the imperial capital is located, is only slightly inferior to that of the East.

Looking at the broad river leading to the east, Mona sighed secretly.

When they go to the Middle Kingdom, they will definitely be completely hated by the Marquis of Suiye City, and business in the Eastern Territory will become very difficult in the future.

With an uneasy feeling, she said loudly: "Take the Golden Grand Canal and go to the Golden Lake Pier in the imperial capital."

There are two major rivers in the Golden Land, the Hanshui River in the northeast and the Nuyan River in the southwest. The two river systems are originally independent of each other.

But more than 500 years ago, the God-Emperor Deuta V gathered the power of all the realms, recruited more than one million civilians and tens of thousands of mages, and spent ten years building the Golden Grand Canal with a length of more than 1,500 meters, transforming the golden land into a golden canal. The transportation water network is integrated.

The Golden Grand Canal is divided into two sections, one running southeast and the other running north-south. The middle is connected to the Great Golden Lake, and the lakeside is the imperial capital Fort Romil.

Although the owner Candela himself does not follow the imperial capital's business routes, his Lawrence family still has a lot of business in the imperial capital, and he can use some help.

But Mona has no idea how much she can borrow, and whether she can make a lot of money from this business trip.

She stood on the bow of the boat and whispered a prayer.

"May God protect the master and Crescent Town."

Hazzard happened to be standing at the bow of the boat. After hearing this, he said, "What is Miss Mona worried about?"

"My lord's goods are all in the golden land and I can't find another one. There's no way I can't sell them."

Mona knew as soon as she heard that this man was an admirer of Lord Crescent and had almost blind faith in his Lord.

There are so many people like this in the Crescent Territory. Because they haven't been out much and haven't seen much of the world, they think their lord is the most powerful person in the world.

As everyone knows, there are countless strong people in this world.

Of course, Mona also knew that arguing with such bigots was a waste of effort.

She could only nod: "You're right."

When the fleet entered the Grand Canal, it was already six o'clock the next morning.

At this time, Suiye City Pier was on the river about a hundred miles away in the south.

Huo Ze, the dock supervisor, was lecturing his subordinates loudly.

"The lord has issued a new order. As long as it is a ship coming from New Moon, it will be intercepted, four times the transit tax will be charged, and the other party's profits will be squeezed out. Do you hear it clearly?"

"Listen clearly!"

"But there is one exception, that is, if there is a beautiful oil painting on the ship, and the subject of the oil painting is related to the Duke, then don't worry about anything and let it go immediately."

"Yes, sir."

"Very good, everyone should keep their eyes open and stare at the river. The news is that Xinyue has brought out a new boat. Counting the time, it will arrive at noon at the latest!"

"clear."

A group of dock tax officials boarded a special tax collection boat and cruised back and forth on the river, like a pack of wolves hunting for prey.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was afternoon.

Many merchant ships came up on the river, but none of them were led by Xinyue.

The tax officials waited and waited until dark, but no target was found.

As darkness fell, the dockmaster got a new message.

"The cargo ship from the New Moon Territory didn't come to Broken Leaf City at all. It diverted directly to the Middle Territory."

The dock administrator was stunned for a moment and immediately reported the news to the dock director Huo Ze.

Huo Ze was stunned and immediately reported it.

About an hour later, when the news was sent to the High Castle of the Holenir family, the Marquis was having dinner with his family.

As soon as he heard the news, his face turned green, mana surged in his body, and a frightening light flashed in his eyes.

‘Crack! ’

There was a harsh sound of metal cracking, and the silver table knife in his hand was directly crushed into a pile of silver ingots by the mage's hand.

Everyone in the restaurant was silent, and the air was as thick as water.

After a long time, the Marquis's expression returned to normal, but his eyes were dark and scary.

"Haha, it seems that Candela doesn't plan to do business in the Eastern Territory."

Family members who are familiar with his character dare not say a word, dare not breathe, let alone eat, for fear of suffering the aftermath of his anger.

After a long time, Huo Lunnier said again: "What are you doing in a daze? Keep eating."

"Get me a new carving knife."

When the new knife was handed over, he cut a piece of meat hard, put it in his mouth and chewed it hard, as if he was chewing the flesh and blood of his enemy.

He is fifty years old this year. At the age of 43, he broke through the master barrier and was promoted to a level 1 archmage.

Now, 7 years later, he is already a level 2 archmage and can be regarded as a pretty good magic genius.

In addition to the realm of magic, he has also achieved outstanding results in the field of magic. He is also a god-given marquis and the lord of the sixth city in the East, with more than 5 million citizens.

Such a person favored by God naturally has a pride in his heart that is far beyond ordinary people.

When the Crescent Leader came out with a magical constant structure that could last for 40 years, which suddenly increased the constant record he created by 8 times, he felt a little unhappy.

Forget it, after all, it is an improvement in magic, which is a great thing that benefits the entire Golden Land.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually integrated this thing into the petrification construction technique, and created the miracle of building a town in January, which even humiliated Sir Mason, whom he specially sent to the Crescent Territory to explore the secrets of petrification.

As a result, he became more and more displeased with Lord Crescent Moon.

If it was just like this, then forget it, but the other party also specially sent three petrified mithril staffs.

He was quite happy at first, thinking that Lord Crescent Moon was very wise, so he started to crack the so-called spell lock on the staff with great interest.

When he thought about it, how difficult could a spell lock invented by a mid-level mage be? With the real thing in front of him, there was no reason why it couldn't be broken.

As a result, almost three months had passed, and he had made no progress except making himself dizzy.

The long-term failure accumulated in his heart, which made him feel very frustrated. At the same time, an invisible anger arose, and he felt that he had been humiliated by an intermediate mage.

Since he lost to the opponent in magic, he naturally regained his position in the secular world.

I originally thought that the other party would surrender obediently and take the initiative to bring the secret of petrification to my door to seek reconciliation.

Unexpectedly, instead of giving in, the young Lord Crescent Moon stopped taking his trade route altogether.

This ignited the anger in his chest.

‘Why does a lowly baron insist on going against me? ’

The God-given Marquis, who has a good beard, a square face, and a majestic expression, is expected to become more and more angry and lose his appetite for dinner.

"That's fine, just be a humble little lord and don't even think about doing business!"

He knew that the other party had an oil painting relationship with the princess, and the princess gave him a lot of money, but money alone was of no use.

If money cannot buy supplies, then money is no different than scrap metal.

He couldn't control Hua Hua, so he blocked specific supplies, especially supplies that were unique to the Eastern Territory.

Such as refining equipment, rare materials, advanced alchemy potions, and so on.

Stop them all!

As long as they pass through his territory, all land and water routes are blocked.

Not only did he stop it himself, but he also had to persuade the great lords of the Eastern Territory, the Middle Territory, and even the Northern Territory to resist together.

Oral persuasion is useless, so just exchange for benefits. Even if you lose a thousand dollars, you still have to make the business of Xinyue Ling fail!

Anyway, he is not short of money.

And even if the other person kneels in front of him and begs for forgiveness with tears in his eyes, he will never forgive him!

Three updates a day will probably continue for six more days. If enough manuscripts are saved after six days, four updates will be started again until the end of the month.
