My Magic Age

As soon as I walked into the first-floor lobby of Emerald Bay Trading Company, I saw a busy scene inside. A large amount of materials were piled in the warehouse at the back. A group of businessmen crowded in front of the counter, holding money bags high in their hands, vying for the first place. While purchasing goods with the merchants, the merchants shouted loudly in a hoarse voice: "Order, be sure to line up and don't be crowded. The caravan has just arrived in the imperial capital. The goods are abundant, so please don't be impatient. "

I heard the fat businessman with a shiny face at the front, wiping the sweat from his oily face with a wet handkerchief, placing his money bag on the counter with great momentum, and casually removing the small items on the pocket. The rope was pulled apart, revealing the yellow and orange gold coins inside. He opened his mouth and said loudly to the waiter of the trading house with a smile on his face: "Hemostatic Herb, prepare ten boxes of Hemostatic Herb for me. I need it urgently!"

"Oh, ten boxes of styptic grass, do you need anything else?" The waiter from the trading house recorded the items that the fat merchant planned to buy on a bill of goods, and then asked with a smile.

"Five boxes of yellow grass, two boxes of buckgrass, two boxes of purple grapevine, one box of royal blood grass, and one box of calamus." The fat businessman then said a series of names of magic herbs, and then he He glanced hesitantly at his pocket full of gold coins, then remained silent.

"Today's herbal medicine market is higher than yesterday. You also know that hemostatic grass has become popular recently..."

The scene before my eyes happened at every stall. Those stalls were crowded with merchants buying goods. The waiters in the merchant house communicated with the merchants in an orderly manner. They first made a list of items, then priced them, paid deposits, and inspected the goods. After the payment is made, a waiter will move the boxes of goods that have just been transported into the warehouse of the business to the carriage waiting for delivery in the back street, and the entire transaction process is over.

Through the glass window in the hall, I saw the heavy wooden boxes on the shelves being moved up and down by the waiters. New goods were constantly entering the warehouse, and many goods were split into small portions. It was shipped out again. Isn't this kind of trading house with huge cargo throughput exactly Marvin's dream?

I remember that before leaving El City, Marvin and I talked all night. When it came to the so-called ideal, he said that he wanted to develop the current grocery store into a trading house. There were many things that he had not yet had time to say. I didn't have time to do anything, so I was delayed because of Sister Guoguo's matter.

The prosperous grocery store currently deals in low-level life magic scrolls and low-level magic herbs. But as I came to the imperial capital, the two most advantageous items were missing from the grocery store. Those scrolls were okay. I filled a magic box every week and mailed it back to Marvin, but those that I hoarded in large quantities were Low-level magic herbs can only be stored in underground caves and cannot be delivered to Marvin in a short time.

Originally, we were planning to expand the business of magic rune metal plates. Unfortunately, because I left El City in a hurry, that blacksmith shop might have to be disposed of by Marvin. When he wrote last time, he mentioned After passing this incident, he said that the business of the blacksmith shop was very poor. We also plan to sell some products from the orc tribe transported from the Pai Plateau, such as the corpse fire oil, magical 'coal' and so on.

I looked at the busy scene outside the window with great envy, and asked Noah: "Is only the second half of the first floor a warehouse? With such a large purchasing power, the inventory in these warehouses may not be able to sustain a day's trading volume. Bar!"

"Of course it's not just that. There is a larger warehouse near the airport outside the imperial capital, and the majority of the goods stored there are."

Walking down the stairs, a knight wearing silver scales, two strong long legs wrapped in a magic pattern made of silver greaves, wearing a pair of rhinoceros leather boots, and a golden long His hair is tied back like a ponytail, and the outline of his face is similar to Noah's. He had a full beard on his chin, and when he saw Noah, his eyes were filled with doting and smiles. He stretched out his hands from a distance and said to Noah: "Hey, little Noah, you are not here." Please share the specific locations of our family cemetery and buried treasures with your friends!”

With a look of joy on Noah's face, he turned around and ran forward two steps, and collided with the strong knight in shining armor. It seemed that the relationship between the two of them was very good. I couldn't help but want to complain: those knights In the gossip of knights, it is said that the grievances and hatreds played out between brothers from wealthy and aristocratic families are usually very bloody. Why didn't I see this in Noah?

The steady knight patted Noah's head affectionately and said appreciatively: "Our little Noah has grown a lot taller. It seems that you have been doing well in the past two months?"

"Aw! Louis, can you please stop hitting me on the head? I am no longer a child, and I am still a magician. Please respect me." Noah protested to the strong knight.

The knight in shining armor laughed, then put his arm around Noah's shoulders and said to Noah: "Hey, why don't you introduce your new friend to me? I heard that you entertained him with the things in the manor... "

Lewis only said half of what he said before Noah covered his mouth with his hand. The sound behind was intermittent and I couldn't hear it clearly.

But Noah seemed a little embarrassed. It seemed that he must have done something embarrassing that I didn’t know about, and now he didn’t want Louis to say it in front of me, so he had such a violent reaction. The two brothers, Louis and Noah, were probably used to quarrels. The two of them jokingly pushed each other for a while. Of course, Louis tried to give way to Noah so that Noah wouldn't look too embarrassed.

Otherwise, even if Louis is not a heavy knight who is good at strength, if he wants to subdue Noah, one hand is enough.

After a while, Louis walked up to me. He stretched out his big hand, gave me a friendly smile, and said to me: "Hello, I am Louis, Noah's brother. Welcome to Emerald Bay as a guest."

My expression was not formal at all, I stretched out my hand naturally and touched his hand. His palm was very thick, and the palm of his hand was covered with calluses. His arms looked very muscular, and I saw his chest. He wore a brightly polished knighthood medal on his front and said politely: "Hello, Knight Louis, my name is Jijia, a student at the Royal Academy of Magic and Noah's roommate. Nice to meet you."

That knight's medal is engraved with a long dragon spear and a soaring royal griffin. I have seen this style of medal in a medal knowledge manual. This medal represents the 'royal griffin'. Knights', it seems that Noah's brother's identity is not simple, at least he is a member of the Praetorian Guards around Charles the Great. There was a kind of coercion belonging to a strong man on his body, which made my chest slightly breathless.

Louis took Noah and me to his usual office on the top floor. Noah’s room was very luxuriously decorated. Almost all the decorations were gold and silver vessels, and many gems were inlaid on them. There were also some hanging on the wall. The leather of rare monsters, or complete skull specimens, those specimens look lifelike.

We randomly found a place to sit down, and Noah explained the purpose of his visit very directly, which was to help me purchase some refined flour, salt, linen thread and cotton cloth from the merchant store.

Louis sat calmly on the sofa opposite me and listened very carefully. Not only did he not show any contempt on his face, he also very seriously called a beautiful female assistant over and listed the names of the products one by one. On the sheepskin list.

Obviously, the female assistant did not have Louise's self-cultivation. When recording the name of the third item of goods: 'Twine', she unconsciously curled her lips slightly. Although the disdainful expression only flashed by, it still fell on the in my eyes. But I think this is human nature. After all, in a big business like this, such a small business is really not worth mentioning. Even the ordinary waiters in the lobby are willing to accept it. We can obviously go to some grocery stores. , can handle things, but they have to be traded in a trading house, which is always a bit like a small horse pulling a big cart.

When I finished stating my needs, Louis raised his eyebrows, stretched out a finger, and said to me easily: "It won't take long, you'll be ready."

He waved to the female assistant. The female assistant with a curvy figure leaned down slightly. The pair of surging rabbits hidden in the white shirt showed clear outlines, but her waist was still very tight. After leaning down, her perfect butt shape was revealed, and the female assistant's smooth and pretty face , almost sticking to Louis' face. Louis stretched out his hand and pinched her fair face gently, then picked up her fair and pointed chin and said to her: "Go and get the person in charge of the living area." De called, let him pass the order in his hand to the people below to do it, I will wait for him here! "

"Okay, I'll call him right away!" The female assistant saw a dazed look flashing in Louis' eyes, and followed Louis' instructions and quickly walked out of the room.

Seeing the envious look on Noah's face, Louis had a mysterious smile on his lips, stretched out his hand to rub the green stubble on his chin, and asked Noah: "How are you? Are you interested? If you like it, I'll give it to you." If you have a mysophobia, I will buy one for you and consider it as a gift from me on the day of your coming-of-age ceremony."

Then his eyes fell on me again, and he said very generously: "The same goes for Jijia."

"Louis, don't mess around." Noah's face turned red and he waved his hands hurriedly.

Noah, who usually behaved very carefree, actually seemed a little embarrassed when talking about this topic.

"Of course I know, I won't act recklessly before your adult ceremony, just because I'm afraid someone won't be able to control it!" Louis smiled heartily, and the whole room was filled with his unique and loud laughter, Noah's face It turned redder.

Louis sat on the sofa with a golden sword, his silver scales reflecting his majesty. He leaned over to pick up the golden cider on the coffee table, let the golden wine fill the glass, and then drank it slowly and intoxicatedly. He took a sip, gave Noah and me a questioning look, and asked us, "Well, would you like a drink?"

"It's better to give us tea. Regular drinking will damage my mental strength." Noah waved his hand and refused, even rejecting my share.

To be honest, I actually really want to taste the bottle of golden cider on the coffee table. I want to taste the taste of the golden cider that the nobles usually drink. After all, I still have 60,000 barrels stored in the underground cave of Xinliu Valley. I felt a little regretful about the golden cider from Zimmerman Manor, but I didn't reveal my thoughts. I thought: Forget it, it's not a rush. What can I do if I know it? I'll wait until I have the opportunity.

Louis put down his wine glass, shrugged his shoulders humorously, put his hand on my shoulder and said: "If you want to prepare these goods in the future, there is no need to come to me in person and tell me, you just need to write a note and have someone bring it. That way How simple.”

A blonde girl in a white dress came up with a tea tray. Her long leather boots stepped on the marble floor and her shoe nails hit the stone floor, making a crisp and sweet sound. She placed two cups of tea on my table. In front of Noah, he turned and left very ably.

Facing this blonde in a white dress, I had a strange feeling that she seemed to be Louis' woman. And the female assistant who had an ambiguous attitude with Louis just now, I felt that she should be Louis Knight. female assistant, I don’t know why, this feeling became very clear in my mind.

A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper, wearing clean and plain clothes, even his hair was meticulously taken care of. After the blonde in a white dress left with her fragrant hair, he walked out of the side door. He walked out, saluted Louis respectfully, and then asked cautiously: "Young Master, are you looking for me?"

Louis put away the smile on his face. At this time, a majestic aura filled his face. Coupled with his majestic and strong body, that powerful aura was formed instantly, and the atmosphere in the room condensed. Louis nodded lightly. , reached out and pushed the parchment material list on the table in the direction of the middle-aged man, and then said calmly: "Bard, you follow the details on this list and prepare these materials immediately. No problem?"

Bard quickly picked up the parchment list on the coffee table, quickly read it from beginning to end, and then checked it again to confirm that it was correct, and then said with a little hesitation: "Master, these daily necessities, except for Except for refined flour, there is almost no inventory in the warehouse at the Imperial Capital headquarters. These daily supplies are usually stored at the material transfer station near the airport. "

Lewis frowned, an unhappy look immediately appeared on his face, and asked in a deep voice: "So, how long will it take to prepare these goods? Hurry!"

"Before night..." Bud said tentatively. Seeing Louis' face becoming more gloomy, he immediately straightened his body and changed his words: "Oh no! Half an hour is enough."

After hearing what Bud said, Louis' expression softened. He nodded with satisfaction and motioned for him to go down and prepare with the goods list in his hand.

In fact, the goods I want to buy are not too much, but they are definitely not too little, because this time I want to buy refined flour that can feed the more than 150 orcs in Xinliu Valley for a month. , a full 20,000 kilograms of flour, and a variety of other items, especially a hundred kilograms of salt. The Green Empire has not yet lifted restrictions on the sale of salt, which will probably make Mr. Budd, who is in charge of the living area, I feel a little headache.

Before Bud left, Louis pointed at Bud and said to me: "If you want to buy these items when I am not in the business, just go to Bud directly and he will take care of it."

Bud followed Louis' words and nodded slightly to me.

Seeing Louis and Noah not caring, with relaxed expressions on their faces, I felt a little emotional: Maybe this is the energy of the aristocratic family. Although it is just a small and silent thing to Noah or Louis, but to For me, it’s still a bit of a headache. It’s impossible to buy so many kinds of goods one by one without a day or two.

When I was in El City, Marvin directly helped me with these trivial matters. I never knew how troublesome these things were. Now that I am in the Imperial Capital and have to rely on myself for everything, it feels very troublesome.

But now, I didn’t expect that with Noah’s help, it could be solved so easily. I glanced at Noah with a little gratitude, and couldn’t help but punch him lightly on the shoulder to show my gratitude.

This had just come to an end, and Mr. Bud quickly left to prepare supplies. Louis had a friendly smile on his face again. Just when he was about to take the opportunity to tease Noah, the man who had just been responsible for recording the item list details, The top-notch female assistant ran in panting slightly, leaned into Louis' ear, and whispered a few words in a panic, and Louis' face changed slightly.

He glanced at me and Noah slightly apologetically, stood up from the sofa suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "How could there be such a big mistake? What exactly does Buck in the herbal medicine section do? Let's go down and see first. !”

Then, Louis took a deep breath and said to Noah: "Noah, entertain your friends well. I have some things to deal with here and I can't accompany you for the time being. You guys wait for a while while Bud prepares the goods. I will find you.”

Noah stood up from the sofa nervously. He was not as calm as Louis. He asked with concern and concern: "Louis, what happened? Maybe I can help!"

Lewis's eyes showed doting, he smiled, shook his head and said to Noah: "Little Noah, these are adults' business, take care of yourself, that's enough."

Noah protested: "How many times have I told you not to treat me like a child? I am already an official magician..."

But now Louis was a little absent-minded. He led the female assistant toward the door and said as he walked: "Okay, okay... Got it!"

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he asked the female assistant, "Is anyone injured?"

The female assistant looked a little embarrassed, but quickly answered truthfully, "Well, almost all the knights who came back were injured, but someone has been sent to the temple to ask for the priest!"

Louis's face became even uglier, and his pace quickened.

At this time, I sat on the sofa modestly and said, "Knight Louis, if anyone is injured, maybe I can help a little!"

Louis and the female assistant looked at me with doubtful eyes, and I stood up from the sofa shyly and said to them, "I am a water magician, I know water healing magic..."
