Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After the business was settled, the construction team under the Chamber of Commerce arrived at the Baron's Mansion collectively the day after the meeting and reported to their employers. Compared with the slightly lazy farmers in the countryside, these people living in the city were paid by project count.  Salary experts are clearly more positive and efficient in their attitude towards their work.

    After a careful discussion with the leaders of these people, Isabel sent several guards to accompany them back to the territory.  The measurement and planning of the territory does not happen overnight, but even if there is no supervisor present to supervise, a lot of work can be started in advance.

    Isabel was not in a hurry to leave Solens City. On the one hand, even with the energy of the United Chamber of Commerce, it would take a long time to prepare goods equivalent to tens of thousands of gold coins; on the other hand, since Tutor Sylvia  After cramming the key points of cultivation into Isabel's head, and realizing that she was worthy of Fatty Yager's price, the girl really had no time to visit her mentor.

    Because of Sebastian¡¯s tactful suggestion, after some consideration, Isabel decided to communicate more with her mentor as he said.  Although in her opinion, Ms. Sylvia is not the kind of person who would let herself get involved in worldly disputes, and she would not really be able to provide her with much practical help, but in any case, with a doctor  It never hurts to have a good relationship with Ta's official mentor, right?

    Although it is said that warlocks rely more on self-training, with the teachings of the forerunners, after all, they can avoid many unnecessary detours.  Not only can you learn from your experience in training, as your young vassal pointed out, but you can also learn how to effectively fight against enemies who are also spellcasters.  Although there are indeed many related books in this area in the public library of the Grand Master Tower, but after thinking about it, how can the things that are placed there for people to read in a grand manner be the real essence?  If you completely believe in these conflicting so-called secrets without thinking, you may not even know how to die when fighting people outside in the future

    In this way, Isabel put aside many matters in the territory for the time being. Isabel carefully prepared thoughtful gifts and visited her mentor enthusiastically.

    During the time everyone stayed in Solens City, with the operation of the Joint Chamber of Commerce.  After several successful wine tasting salons, brandy's reputation gradually grew.  At first it was only limited to the noble class, but soon it became popular.  Even the middle class and even ordinary citizens have heard about this new gadget.

    Although the price of fifteen gold coins per bottle is quite expensive for most people, there are always people who are not short of money and have strong curiosity who are willing to try it.  After tasting it, many customers were immediately fascinated.

    It¡¯s funny, you know.  Even Malone himself, who invented brandy, although he was confident in his wine, rationally believed that the Delaware people who were used to drinking lighter wines would need an adaptation process before they could taste this wine.  The benefits of wine come.  But the actual situation now is that although his prediction is completely correct, it seems not comprehensive enough.

    Compared with the human residents of Saurons City.  Those different humanoid races have all developed a great interest in this powerful wine.  At a wine tasting salon, the elf poet Eltraste said after trying brandy that although he personally felt that the wine was a bit stronger, this flaw did not affect the excellence of the wine.  In contrast, Pluto, the master blacksmith dwarf, said that it would be perfect if the fruity aroma of this wine could not be so strong and pungent.  And most satisfied with brandy.  None more so than the half-elves.  Compared with their elven relatives, they are not so sensitive and delicate. Tanis, the boss behind the Adventurer's House who was invited to the salon, even placed an order for fifty boxes with the Chamber of Commerce on the spot.

    In this case, a large number of business-minded restaurant and bar owners rushed to major chambers of commerce to order this kind of wine.  It didn't take long for the more than 10,000 bottles of wine Isabel shipped this time to be swept away.  Those who couldn't grab it turned around and began to send people to carefully investigate the origin of the wine.  I plan to start with other approaches.  And some of the guys who have bigger intentions are 200% more interested.

    There are almost no secrets in the open market.  In addition, the person involved did not deliberately conceal it and did not spend much effort.  The identity of the brandy maker emerged.  However, anyone with a little bit of clues would also learn the identity of Sebastian the magician.

    The vast majority of ambitious people who originally planned to use various means to obtain the secret recipe for winemaking immediately stopped.  Getting money from the pockets of a territorial baron family with a magician and a magic apprentice is absolutely unreasonable in the minds of ordinary people.

    Regrettably, in reality, things don¡¯t go as planned.Shi Chang**.  Even if it was Sorens alone, there would be many people who could offend the Wamborn family.  Maybe it's a noble, maybe it's a wealthy businessman, maybe it's a variety of organizations, just to name a few.  All they need to consider is whether the benefits they can gain from this business are worth taking this dangerous step.

    In the following period, just as Sir Bordeaux expected, Isabel really felt considerable pressure from all aspects.  After all, not many people dare to actually disturb Sebastian in person, who has been promoted to the official magician of the Master Tower not long ago. In contrast, those who have more or less fought with Baron Wamborn in the past  The so-called elders who interact with her can use various excuses to test the younger girls from an ethical point of view.

    For these childish temptations, Isabel's heart was full of disdain.  Although she had not considered whether to temporarily move to the Master's Tower for a while so that she could be out of sight and out of mind, the girl who had grown up in this land still couldn't be like the outsider Sebas after all.  Tian is also indifferent to the world.  Moral concepts, self-persistence, and the pursuit of perfection not only gave Isabel her extraordinary will, but also bound her tightly to some extent.  Therefore, even if she didn't want to, the girl still received the guests who came to the door one by one with standard etiquette.

    ¡°Although Isabel is far from being sophisticated in conversation with those villains who are good at playing power, she is not simply being tricked into keeping secrets.  After many attempts without success, fewer and fewer people came to the door.

    Isabel clearly understands that these people have not given up their plans, but have just started to use various methods below the surface.  From now on, the trouble really begins.  Somewhat worried about the security of the territory, and the goods delivered by the Chamber of Commerce had almost been collected, Isabel finally decided to return to Fubo Castle after discussing with Arati and others.  Although the girl herself understood that this little secret could not be kept secret for a long time, she was still unwilling to do so.  But sometimes, even if you clearly understand that what you are doing may be pointless persistence, you still have to persevere.

    After expressing her gratitude for the support of those families who have been friends with her family for generations, the strong girl did not personally summon her only vassal to say goodbye in person, but chose to just send someone to inform her.

    The escorts and servants shuttled back and forth in the mansion, and under the urging of the housekeeper and martial arts master, they were busy doing final inspections before departure.

    The size of the convoy returning this time is indeed quite large. Even for the territorial barons, it is enough to be considered a large sum of money.  In the more remote areas of the kingdom, some cash-strapped and declining nobles engage in banditry in private, and rumors of plundering caravans passing by their territories are nothing new.  Any trivial matter must be confirmed again and again until it is correct, so as not to be caught off guard when trouble occurs in the wilderness.

    "Weakness is the biggest original sin" Wearing a simple and neat knight's suit with luxurious embellishments, Isabel stood on the balcony and looked down at the front yard under her feet. The busy crowd seemed so small. The girl's left hand  He gently touched the railing, held his right hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and sighed softly.

    For the proud girl herself, this retreat was ultimately due to the lack of strength in the territory.  When those hidden enemies only show their intention to attack, they have to defend with all their strength, and they cannot even predict when and in what form the attack will arrive.  How frustrating this is!

    Although Isabel has tried her best to control herself and did not show any negative emotions in front of her subordinates, those who are familiar with her can notice that the seemingly weak body of the girl is always filled with violent energy as long as they pay attention.  Anger builds up as time goes by.

    "Now, in your eyes, I am just a nobody worth mentioning. But all this will not last long. I will become more powerful, absolutely powerful that no one can match!" Xuanyuan!  Looking towards the majestic and majestic huge castle in the center of the city, the girl's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the burning sight was filled with naked and strong desire. Her soft words contained unshakable determination, "Isabel?  Jane Wamborn, haven't you already sworn an oath? Yes, one day you will definitely stand at a height that even your great ancestor cannot reach!"

    As Isabel uttered her oath word by word, the strong desire contained in this small body seemed to burst out in an instant.  She felt a strong impulse, as if there was something hidden trying to burst out in her body. The blood all over her body seemed to be burning fiercely, causing waves of burning pain.  The blue sky and white clouds you see with your eyes open are covered with a colorful transparent barrier.The world began to become gradually blurred, and all objects began to distort.

    ¡°Click¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡±

    Isabel unconsciously crushed the railing on her left hand to pieces. With the clear cracking sound of the wood, colorful light groups burst out in her body, and then shrank back strangely in the next second.

    Some people in the yard below noticed something unusual above their heads and looked up in confusion.

    There, a large dazzling smoke cloud composed of tiny golden particles shrouded the head.  To be continued.  .
