My Magic Age

Chapter 1249 53. The Imperial Capital in Everyone's Eyes

When every Green Empire person rides a magic caravan along the main road of Mazzaro Mountain to the city gate on the top of the mountain, they will be shocked by the more than 500 giant heroic sculptures lining both sides of the mountain road. These heroic sculptures bear witness to the Green Empire. With nearly a thousand years of history and glory, almost every heroic sculpture has a glorious history behind it.

Marvin and Si Pei were sitting in the magic caravan. They stretched their heads out of the car window. There were many magic caravans driving on the mountain road, and the speed was not too fast. They both enjoyed looking at every Grimm hero on the mountain road. .

Whenever he recognized a hero, Si Pei would scream excitedly and chatter non-stop with Marvin.

The Imperial Capital is a holy place in the hearts of every Green Empire person, and Si Pei and Marvin are no exception. The biggest dream of many Green people in their lives is to go to the Imperial Capital for a walk around or take a look.

The heroes are destined to have a vigorous and glorious life, and their glory has shaped the history of the Green Empire.

For people in the north, the names of the five heroes that are most memorable in their memory are Xiatun Aili, Qiuguo Lie, Parubui, Komol, and Rongyu.

The statues of the five heroes not only stand on the mountain path of Mount Mazzaro, but are also located in the largest square in the fifth district of Sloit City. Just like the names of many heroes are engraved in the hearts of the imperial people in other provinces, They are great heroes who came out of the Northern Province.

Feeling the mountain breeze blowing on her face, Si Pei's face flushed. She asked me excitedly: "Jijia, when you first came to the imperial capital, were you too excited to sleep like us?"

I smiled at her, reached out and poured a glass of golden cider, and added a few ice cubes to the glass. The ice cubes made a clanking sound when they hit the wall of the glass.

I handed the golden apple cider to Si Pei and said to her: "I remember that the airship I was riding in met the rebels in the Ziqing Mountains halfway. Those rebels wanted to hijack the entire magic airship to the Ziqing Mountains. rebel stronghold."

These are experiences I have never told before, and Marvin was also surprised after hearing them.

"Hoo hoho...it seems like you have never told us about these things." Marvin said to me.

I smiled and said to them: "The more unlucky thing is yet to come. We had a fierce battle on the airship. We finally got control of the airship. Unexpectedly, we were unexpectedly attacked by a group of wind snakes. The airship crashed on the ground. Over there in the forest area on the edge of the Ziqing Mountains, but luckily all the regulars in the airship survived."

"Wow, this is really thrilling." Si Pei covered his mouth and said with wide eyes.

That experience, for the travelers on the airship, was like wandering around the Door of Death, surviving narrowly and narrowly.

Catalina sat next to me and looked at me deeply. She had heard me tell this story, and I mentioned Captain Mackintosh to her.

I continued: "Because we were in a hurry to rush to the Royal Academy of Magic in the Imperial Capital to report, we rode magic harpoons to San Carlos City, and then took the magic airship from San Carlos City to the Imperial Capital. When we arrived in the Imperial Capital, we happened to be At night, even though I knew the magic caravan came from these heroic statues, I didn’t feel excited.”

"You mean 'us'. Apart from you, were there any of your friends on the airship at that time?" Si Pei carefully caught my speech problems and said to me: "At that time, you had just walked out of El City. We must also know each other’s friends.”

"I met Princess Sha and Teacher Sophie on the airship!" I touched my nose and said to Si Pei.

"Wow...it turns out to be our Princess of Sloit City!" Marvin exclaimed.

It seems that everyone seems to have a strong interest in the secrets of noble families, even magicians like Marvin who focus on business are no exception. However, I think it is necessary to change the topic. I don’t want these things to be passed around. Finally, it reached the ears of Duke Jingyue.

The magic caravan climbed higher and higher, and when we looked out from the window, we could already overlook the entire airport town at the foot of the mountain.

"Look at your feet, Marvin!" I said to Marvin.

I pointed at the continuous caravans outside the airport town and said to Marvin: "This is not only a small town outside the imperial capital, but also the largest distribution center for supplies in the Green Empire. Here, as long as you can name it, you can get it." You can buy it.”

Marvin sat quietly in the magic caravan. His eyes had been looking out the window since he got in the car, and his black eyes became bright.

From the mountain road, you can clearly see that the foot of the mountain is full of large magic caravans and Thunder Rhinoceros caravans. In order to earn two more copper coins for each item, many merchants are unwilling to rent warehouses to store their goods, so they move their goods They are hoarded outside the airport town, forming temporary strongholds with large caravans, and will sell supplies shipped from thousands of miles away to the merchants in the airport town.

After the outbreak of the plane war, it is said that the trade volume in the airport town has shrunk significantly. Even so, it is still a prosperous scene.

"Jijia, what do you think I can do here?" Marvin looked at the scene in front of him. The grand scene of the airport town formed a powerful impact at this moment, making him seem to have doubts. , no longer confident in myself.

"It's great that you and Si Pei can come and help me." I put my hand on Marvin's shoulder and said to him kindly.

"Originally, I planned to let you open a magic grocery store in the imperial capital, mainly selling copper hot pots, exhaust fans and metal rune plates, magic scrolls and so on. I will provide you with the supply." I continued, "But now something happened in a trading company here. I hope you can get familiar with the affairs of the company as soon as possible and help me manage it."

"You want me to manage a trading company?" Marvin widened his eyes and said to me in a panic, "But I have no experience in this."

I patted his shoulder again and comforted him, "Before you are familiar with the business of the trading company, someone will guide you, and the things in that company are not too complicated. Every month, you only need to count the goods on the magic airships that arrived from the orcs of the Pai Plateau tribe, and then purchase the materials on it according to the list of goods delivered from there. Don't worry, we are just middlemen who make a profit from the price difference, and you have to participate in person to know how lucrative the profit is."

Speaking of this matter, I actually thought that El City also has a unique geographical advantage.

So I said to Marvin, "Speaking of which, our El City is the closest border city to the Pai Plateau. All the caravans coming down from the Pai Plateau have to pass through us, but no one has ever thought about what this trade route can bring us. We are familiar with the supplies transported out of the orc tribes, and we have also seen the caravans coming out of the orc tribes, but there has never been a large caravan in El City."

Marvin argued, "We also have caravans in El City."

I emphasized, "I mean a large caravan with at least fifty thunder rhinos."

Regarding the way of doing business, Marvin still has some unique insights of his own.

Marvin said: "Wow, this kind of caravan can only be encountered a few times a year in El City! And even if we have such a large caravan, how can we gain the trust of the orcs on the plateau? It is also a very troublesome problem. Just like we do not welcome the orc wanderers coming to the Pai Plateau, I am afraid that the orcs on the Pai Plateau do not welcome our caravans either."

I said to him: "So, you need to learn in this trade house, maybe you can understand the trade routes."

Although his words sounded a little guilty, he still promised.

"Okay, I listen to you." He said to me.

...

Everyone has a different imperial capital in their hearts.

The imperial capital in the hearts of the nobles is in the first and second blocks. The two blocks are located in the core of the imperial capital around the vast Weiyang Lake.

In fact, for the central area of ​​the imperial capital where every inch of land is valuable, the closer to Weiyang Lake, the more vacant land there is. There are less than a hundred large manors built around the Weiyang Lake Avenue. The land here cannot be bought with money. Only the top nobles of the Green Empire are qualified to live here.

The imperial capital in the hearts of the common people is in the sixth and seventh blocks, which are like wind circles around the moon on a windy night.

In this outer area of ​​the imperial capital, there are countless affordable housing and cheap rental houses. There are free wash basins built here, providing people with drinking water day and night. There are public toilets built on some sewage ditches. There are a lot of cheap vegetables in the free market every day. There are shops and workshops everywhere. The common people living in the imperial capital usually make a living from this.

The imperial capital in the hearts of businessmen is in the fifth block, which is the most prosperous commercial place in the imperial capital. It has the largest auction house, the most luxurious opera house, and the top hotels and hotels in the Green Empire. All the businessmen who can gain a foothold on this commercial street are wealthy lords.

(The teleportation hall of the Astrologer Union is also located here)

The imperial capital of the students is in the third block, where almost all the most famous academies gather. There is no doubt that the Royal Magic Academy is the most beautiful dream in the hearts of almost all magicians. Countless magicians dream of studying here one day, but the Green Empire is so large, but there is only one Royal Magic Academy, and the number of magic students enrolled in each province each year will not exceed three.

Due to the continuous wars, the population of the northern provinces is much different from that of the southern provinces. The province of Sloyte awakens about a few hundred magicians each year, which is almost more than double the number of some southern provinces. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the magic students of the Royal Magic Academy are one in a hundred.

Marvin and Si Pei's first stop in the imperial capital was the Royal Magic Academy. I took them around the academy. In front of the grassland of the teaching building, in front of the door of the library, in front of the dining table in the dining hall, and in front of the semicircular light shield outside the Five-Series Ecological Park, Marvin used the image crystal to record their figures.

There are many more people who know me in the Royal School of Magic than I do. When the members of the Inscription Society see me, they basically avoid me.

Ever since William was defeated by me on the roof of the teaching building last summer, and Senior Sister Adele officially graduated from the Royal School of Magic, no one dared to come to me and provoke me after I entered the second year of the magic school.

Prince George came to the Royal School of Magic to study, and he has become the leader of the Imperial Capital Gang, but he and Quentin are rarely seen in the school recently.

Marvin, Si Pei and I were chatting on a bench under the banyan tree next to the laboratory building. After Ying Li finished the last elective class of magic potion, Marvin and Si Pei knew Ying Li's identity.

Regarding a classmate who was a princess of the Angel Boulder royal family, Marvin said to me: "Every time I think of this, it feels a little unreal."

I smiled and asked Marvin: "Do you want to take you to the lakeside manor of Ying Li's family to have a look? Her sister Le Die is also our schoolmate. She stayed in our school as an exchange student of Xinghai Magic Academy that year."

Marvin sighed and said: "How could I not remember her? Princess Le Die turned the War Magic Academy upside down and caused conflicts between nobles and civilian students at that time. Even in the current El City, the relationship between nobles and civilians is still very delicate. All this is thanks to that prince."

That was the most unbearable year in El City. In that year, a group of outstanding students who graduated from the War Academy died in the war when the barbarians invaded the North.

I said to Marvin: "In fact, the contradictions have always existed, but they are not so sharp. Ledie's role at that time was like a bottle of catalyst, which sharpened all the contradictions and caused many problems to erupt at once."

When we talked about things in school, there were more topics to talk about, and time slipped away unconsciously.

It was not until Catalina turned her head and looked in the direction of the laboratory building that I realized that Ying Li might have finished class at this time. I just turned my head and saw a touch of white in front of me. Ying Li appeared in front of me in a pure white magic coat and asked me happily: "Hey, what are you talking about? Hi! Marvin. Hi Si Pei!"

"Hey... Nothing, get out of class is over so soon!" I quickly stopped the topic from going off track.

At this time, I saw a graceful girl wearing tight light leather armor standing behind Ying Li. At first, I thought it was Helena, but Helena would not just stand behind Ying Li, so I looked over and found that it was actually——

"Le Die, how come you have time to come to the Royal Magic Academy." I said to Le Die who was quietly standing behind Ying Li.

Le Die pursed her lips slightly. If it wasn't for the familiar people around her, Jun An could tell from her beautiful face that she had a Tyrannosaurus character.

Ying Li answered for her, "She came to ask me to go to the opera house. She graduated from the Advanced Swordsman Academy and has a lot of time."

When Si Pei heard Ying Li say this, she thought she was going to the opera, so she said to Ying Li, "Are you going to the opera?"

Ying Li smiled kindly, stood between Ma Wen and Si Pei, and said to the two of them, "Old classmates have come all the way from the Northern Province, so of course I have to treat you well."

Then he asked me, "Ji Jia, what are your plans next?"

In fact, I wanted to take Si Pei and Ma Wen to the rental house first, settle them down, and then take a magic caravan to wander around the imperial capital, but because Le Die joined in, I said to Ying Li, "I'm waiting for you to discuss it after class!"

Le Die smiled and looked at me, then said, "I have asked Helena to book the restaurant for dinner. Let's fill our stomachs first, and then go to the Tower of Pride for a stroll."
