Lord of Hyranza

Colina also raised her head, tidied her hair by her ear before saying to Lance:

"Our focus on learning magic is different, and the required magic lines are naturally different. What I think of may not be suitable for you."

The sweet-looking female magician suddenly felt that she was at a disadvantage, and said to Lance in a gentle tone: "Lance, this time I really want Commander Suldak."

"Actually, we should thank Suldak..." Of course, Lance agreed with this very much. As soon as he said this, he saw Suldak walk into the small courtyard. Erdak said: "We just happened to be talking about you, and you actually popped up, tell me! What's the matter with us this time?"

He knew that Suldak had been very busy recently, and nothing would definitely come to him.

Suldak was planning to ask the magician Glenna about the details of the awakening ceremony. He was planning to take Signa and Nika to Wilkes City to participate in the magic awakening ceremony in a few days, so he ran directly to Lan s.

After getting along these days, Suldak has completely figured out the subtle relationship between these five magicians.

In fact, Colina and Lance have an ambiguous and unspoken relationship.

However, the sweet-looking female magician also admired Lance more.

She and Ge Lianna are good girlfriends who talk about everything, and at the same time have a subtle competitive relationship, and the friendship between the two has not reached the point where they can tolerate each other emotionally.

As for the sweet-looking female magician, there is a dog licking who follows him all the time. This young male magician has a good personal relationship with Lance.

But everyone didn't tell each other clearly.

These intricate relationships can only make Suldak sigh, the circle of magicians is really chaotic.

Only the male magician with glasses is a straight man who came here specially for the magic herb.

The three male magicians are also the best among young magicians in the Hailansa Magic Union.

Suldak quickly walked onto the terrace, greeted everyone, and then asked Colina:

"Magician Geliana, can you introduce the qualifications for the Magic Awakening Ceremony?"

Colina always maintained a cold and intellectual beauty on her face. She said: "That's right. Usually, before participating in the magic awakening ceremony, all children need the most basic three-step test, understanding magic, adapting to magic, For the perception of magic, only after passing these three types of tests can you participate in the magic awakening ceremony, and... due to the lack of magic resources in the Grimm Empire, every child born in the Grimm Empire has to participate in the magic awakening ceremony once before the age of 12 Opportunity."

Then she added: "Every child needs to be an official citizen of the Green Empire, which means that her family must have a proof of paying population tax..."

"Do you still need these?" Suldak didn't expect such trouble.

"Of course...but if you're in Hailansa, even if you don't have these, I can help you." Gelena said to Suldak.

"Okay, I can take care of the proof for paying the population tax." Suldak immediately thought of the Batra tax officer.

Suldak sat down beside Lance, put one hand on his shoulder, and asked him, "How do you feel about your life experience in the past month?"

"We all got this, and we got what we wanted!" Lance said while pointing to the high-grade leather on the table. "By the way, even if you don't come, I'm afraid I'll have to look for you. It's been almost two months since we left Hailansa City, and it will take nearly a month to return. Now that the ant infestation here is under control, I will I've been thinking about it for days, it's time for us to return to Hailansa."

"Are you all leaving?" Suldak asked casually.

"I decided to stay in Dodan for the time being..." The glasses magician immediately raised his hand to express his position, and said, "But I need your support in refining the magic potion..."

"Of course it's fine."

Suldak didn't expect that he would actually meet someone who was willing to stay...

Chapter 851 Dodan Town

Suldak sat on the terrace, looking at the magician with tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of his nose, with a fluffy beard on his lips, looking enthusiastically at this side...

"As long as you are willing to temporarily join the cavalry battalion and become a full-time magic pharmacist, I will try my best to help you find magic herbs."

Suldak made a promise, but then added:

"Currently, the groups that control the magic herb resources in the Invercargill Forest are the tribes and natives in the hills and mountains."

This is something everyone knows.

He continued:

"You also know how much damage this beast horde has done to the Invercargill Forest, and how many magic herbs can be found later. To be honest...it's hard for me to make a guarantee, I can only try my best to collect..."

The male magician with glasses nodded and said:

"Of course, I stayed in Dodan Town because I wanted to get in touch with these indigenous tribes myself."

Unexpectedly, the man with glasses was very ceremonial. He stood up and extended his hand to Suldak solemnly, saying:

"Hello, Commander Suldak, please call me Justin... Please take care of me in the future."

Suldak could only stand up from the chair on the terrace and shook hands with him.

"Hi, Justin."

Next, the bespectacled male magician named Justin began to introduce himself in great detail:

He is a junior magic pharmacist of the Magic Union of Hailansa City.

Due to the very limited quota of magic herbs in the Hailansa Magic Union, if a magic pharmacist wants to learn professional skills, it is obvious for a pharmacist who wants to learn magic medicine urgently only by relying on the monthly quota issued by the union. too little.

Without finding any more magic herbs, magic pharmacy can only stay at the theoretical level. If he wants to continue to study magic herbs, Justin can only try to get out of the ivory tower in Hailansa City and look for magic herbs outside. .

Originally, Justin wanted to try to get out of Hailansa City, find a more reliable adventure group, and enter the plane rich in magic herb resources for jungle adventure.

Before he could make a choice, he saw his friend Lance running to him with some magic herbs and asked him to refine some healing potions.

So the glasses magician couldn't wait to ask for the details. After learning that these magic herbs came from the Bailin plane, and the owner was Lance's friend, Justin made a decision to go to the Bailin plane with Lance. go around.

In fact, the Bailin plane is not a plane rich in magic herbs.

When they arrived in Wilkes City, they registered with the local magic union and did some research on the magic market. As a result, they couldn't find any magic herbs in the magic market here.

Friends from Wilkes City heard that they were going to Dodan Town, but they only knew that it was the northernmost border town of the White Forest Plane, next to Invercargill Forest.

But it is unknown what magic herbs are there.

To say that there are no magical herbs in the Warcraft Forest... that is simply impossible, but the Demonic Beast Forest there is definitely not rich in magic herbs.

Justin came to Dodan Town with such a feeling of apprehension.

It was only when I arrived in Dodan that I realized that, as the magician friend in Wilkes City said, there was no magic herb at all...

In the following period of time, some encounters changed Justin's view. It was not that there were no magical herbs in the Invercargill Forest, but that these resources were not in the hands of the imperial immigrants at all, but in the hands of the tribe natives.

Everyone was talking about the Magic Awakening Ritual again.

For every magician, this ceremony is still fresh in their memories, a moment in their life... when they are reborn.

Colina was a young examiner for the awakening ceremony in Hailansa City, and her cold personality was also a necessary condition for her to become an examiner.

Sitting beside Lance, she took out a piece of magic parchment from her arms, unfolded it, quickly wrote a line of text on it, and then stamped the line of text, then rolled up the magic parchment and used A Maliana leaf is tightly fastened.

She pushed the scroll in front of Suldak and said to him:

"The magic guild in Wilkes City also has our classmates. If you want to go to Wilkes City, you can take our recommendation letter to the magic guild over there and find a magician named Combirodi. He walked out from Hailansa, I think he should take care of you."

It turns out that the group of magicians also talks about human feelings and relationships...

Suldak quickly put the scroll in his arms, and thanked Colina: "That's really a thank you."

Lance sneered, waved his hand and said:

"I think it's better to forget it, Colina... If you write it, it may be worse than not writing anything at all."

The way Colina frowned seems to have a very unique charm.

"What do you mean?" Colina said angrily to Lance.

Lance lay lazily on the wicker chair, and said nonchalantly, "Don't you know that that guy, Combirodi, is thinking about you? Of course he will be insincere to you, but that doesn't mean he sees your feelings." A letter of recommendation, I will help Suldak, maybe it might be a waste of help."

Colina raised her delicate eyebrows and asked Lance:

"Are you implying in a vague way...my suitors are all over the various planes of Bena Province?"

Lance sat up lazily, put his arms around Suldak's broad shoulders and said, "I'm just worried about Suldak, but if I came forward to be the recommender, that guy Compi shouldn't make things difficult out of jealousy." you."

"boring!"

Colina leaned on the back of her chair, looking at the white snow on the top of the majestic Thorny Mountains in the distance, and stopped talking.

……

As a large number of caravans, mercenary groups and adventure groups poured into Dodan Town, many businesses in the town broke out like a blowout.

Especially when many people come to Dodan for the first time, whether they buy baked oatmeal at a bakery or eat sliced ​​white bread in a restaurant, they all have an amazing discovery, that is, the price of scones and bread in Dodan Almost outrageously low.

Many people try to buy flour at home and make some bread by themselves, which is definitely not as cheap as the bread sold in bakeries.

These outsiders will suspect at first, maybe the bakery can buy cheap wheat flour, or maybe the owner of the bakery has added some other cheap things to the wheat flour, or maybe the bakery here is doing malicious promotions ...beat other bakeries with price.

In fact, there is only such a bakery in the town of Dodan, and this bakery is so trusted by the residents of the town that almost all the common people and poor people in the town will buy scones and bread here.

Occasionally, some nobles can be seen, holding a bag of white bread, boarding the magic caravan parked by the roadside.

Therefore, many adventure groups and mercenary groups will buy some scones in the bakery before entering the hills and mountains, and occasionally go to the blacksmith shop or leather shop to repair weapons or leather armor, and they will also go to the magic market to learn about Local leather and Warcraft material prices.

There used to be a magic market in Duodan Town, but it has not been very prosperous, and few merchants have traded in the magic market.

But now there is a commercial tax on all trade in Dodan Town, and every transaction must have a tax payment certificate before bulk goods can be shipped out of the town.

Therefore, it is obviously inconvenient to conduct private transactions and then go to the tax official to file tax returns.

But if the transaction is made on the magic market, when each transaction is completed, there will be a dedicated tax officer waiting by the side.

At this time, as long as you pay [-]% of the transaction amount as tax, you can get a certificate to leave the town.

Of course, there are times when tax agents are not needed in the magic market, as long as the goods can be consumed in the town, then there is no need to pay taxes...

For example, the owner of the new leather shop in the town does not need to pay taxes for buying hard armor leather, but if he makes these hard armor leather into leather armor and sells them outside, he needs to pay taxes.

Hathaway has already helped Suldak set up a tax bureau. The head of the bureau is Batra tax officer, and there are four tax officers under him.

Now there are basically no large-scale workshops in the town, and the industrial base is zero.

Therefore, Batra's tax collector only needs to have two of his men stare at the magic market all day long to collect a large amount of taxes.

The shops in the small town are only blacksmiths, leather shops, tailors, and grocery stores.

Originally, these shops served the local mercenary groups and adventure groups. Now that the number of adventure groups and mercenary groups has gradually increased, the business of these shops has become busy.

For the mercenary group and adventure group, Suldak promulgated a decree in the town prohibiting the slaughter of the indigenous tribes in the hills and mountains, and listed several indigenous tribes that were willing to establish contact with the town of Dodan.

Even the approximate locations of these indigenous tribes are clearly marked on the map, and harassment is prohibited.

If there is another incident of slave hunting or wanton massacre of local aborigines, the town will immediately dispatch troops to investigate.

Once any adventure group is found to have dared to violate the town's laws and regulations, the ensuing punishment will be at least to expel the entire team from Dodan Town.

In the town of Dodan, there are all kinds of magic materials related to the ghost-striped red ants.

You can find everything from the belly leather of worker ants to the thick and solid armor of ghost-striped male ants, so even if you have to pay a tax, merchants are willing to do business here.

At the beginning, you can always meet businessmen who evade taxes.

After a series of penalties, this kind of imagination has basically been eliminated now.

The Batra tax collector is in charge of the town's treasury, and now the gold coins piled up in the treasury are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the past, when Batra tax officials were walking on the street, they saw businessmen rushing up to them, licking their faces and collecting taxes from them. When they met some good-tempered businessmen, they would give some symbolically. Cynicism.

Because at that time everyone knew that Lord Josie Golding was the talker of the business in Dodan Town.

As the tax officer of Dodan Town Hall, Bartra is like a stinky beggar in front of these businessmen.

Now the Batra tax officer goes home every day, and he always receives invitations from many businessmen to dinner...

……

The Batra tax officer and Mrs. Luna stood by the river on the southern outskirts of the town, chatting casually while watching the river flowing westward.

A group of aboriginal migrant workers, led by a supervisor, was cleaning up thatched huts by the river. The messy wood and thatch were piled together, and they were set ablaze in an open space by the river, and completely burned.

The land along the river in the slums has been preliminarily cleared, and square timbers coated with a layer of varnish have begun to enter the site.

Only the skin-cooking workshop of the leather shop and the printing and dyeing workshop of the tailor shop still stand by the river. These two workshops, which are not much better than thatched cottages, stand out in the edge area.

According to Suldak's request, all buildings in this area must be removed.

However, according to the decree of the Green Empire, all private property is protected by the empire. No matter how dilapidated the leather workshops and printing and dyeing workshops here are, if you want to completely remove them, you must have a leather shop owner and a tailor shop owner. consent.

Those poor people received a sum of demolition funds, happily took all their belongings, ran to another corner of the slum area, and continued to live a poor life.

According to Suldak's request, Mrs. Luna gave each family five gold coins. These gold coins are enough to buy a small house in other places in Dodan Town. If they build it themselves, they only need three gold coins.

But merchants are not willing to move their property by the river just because of a few gold coins. Now that Batra tax officer and Mrs. Luna are standing by the river, it was Suldak who asked them to come here to meet.

Suddenly there was a horse neighing on the other side of the river, and I saw Suerdak riding Gu Bolai's horse across the river that was more than ten meters wide.
