Chapter 122: graduation

Views:

"Today, you are about to step out of the school gate and become a powerful new force in the kingdom. For the school, you are the best graduates. As the principal, I hope that you will become a useful person to the kingdom in the years to come. Whether your future is to join the army, become a public official, or prepare to be a businessman or a craftsman, you should all work diligently."

When the principal standing on the stage finally ended the long and boring graduation ceremony speech with "Today you graduate from the school, the school will be proud of you in the future", the school teachers standing behind him first applauded , and then it took a few seconds for the parents of the students in the audience to react and applaud. Finally, all the students reluctantly applauded under the gaze of the school teachers and parents of the graduates.

"I've always suspected that he doesn't change the script of his graduation speech every year. I seemed to hear the same thing last year." Bockaar applauded twice perfunctorily and then put it down.

"I didn't even listen to what he was talking about. Anyway, I just waited until the end to get my diploma and leave." Verricro said: "Look at Claude, he is distracted again, and I don't know where he is thinking. "

Claude was indeed distracted. He was thinking about his plan to make money. If he only relied on hunting, it would be a little slow to make money. Just like yesterday afternoon, he patrolled the forest farm for a long time, but he didn't find any big prey. In the end, he had to set a lot of serial traps in the bushes and grass nests, and planned to go back today to see if he had harvested anything.

It seems that if you want to hunt big game or beasts, you have to go to the mountains behind the forest farm. How about going to the forest and mounds in the southern suburbs of the town? Last year, I had a good harvest of pheasants and rabbits there. Now it has been a year. With more time, maybe there will be more pheasants and rabbits over there waiting for me to catch them.

Well, as a time traveler, it feels a bit shameful to rely on hunting to make money. After all, hunting relies on luck, and it is not uncommon for hunters in Bailu Town to sometimes stay in the mountains for several days and return empty-handed. With the development and expansion of Bailu Town, most of the prey in the adjacent mountains and forests have moved deeper into the mountains, away from the scope of human activities. The reason why Vericro's father is called the number one hunter in White Deer Town is because he can go deep into the mountains and return safely with his prey.

If you want to hunt big prey or beasts in the mountains and forests near Bailu Town, it really depends on luck. Catching pheasants and rabbits is easy, but you have to consider the saturation of the market. Although Pied from the old tavern said he would take as much as he wanted, Claude suspected that if he had to catch thirty or so pheasants, rabbits, etc., Pied would refuse to buy them, and he would not be able to sell them in the open-air market. Starting price, in good conscience, the purchase price given by Pied was already the highest.

In fact, Claude had many ideas in his mind that could make money, but he just couldn't realize them. This world is very different from his previous life. With his current age and family environment, it is simply impossible for him to convince his parents to pay for his creativity. Not to mention anything else, the status class prescribed by this kingdom alone can make all his efforts useless.

Perhaps more than ten years later, Claude became a member of the national class of this kingdom, and then he would have the conditions to realize his dream of a business empire. Now, it’s better to go to bed and stop having sweet dreams. It seems that it is more reliable to make money by hunting in the mountains and forests with a matchlock gun. At least the prey you catch can be sold for some money.

There can be no absolute fairness and justice in any world. This was something Claude realized during the auction of the Niros crocodile he hunted last year. That was still when Mr. Morsan was the administrative director of White Deer Town, and the fathers of the three partners, Verricro, Bockal, and Ericson, also had a lot of popularity in White Deer Town. But all of this was easily crushed in front of Sir Fox. He only spent four gold crowns to take away the ownership of the Niros giant crocodile.

{} However, Claude ranked first in swordsmanship and equestrian skills, and in the other musket shooting and crossbow shooting competitions, he was on par with Vericro. The final overall score difference between the two was only one point. Under such circumstances, Mr. Morsan's position as the administrative director of White Deer Town played a role. The principal believed that he could tie for first place. What everyone remembers is the number one name.
