Baron Sark got up early this morning. After all the turmoil experienced on the day of the coup, the baron of the empire, the former head of the Imperial Security Department, took the initiative to ask the regent to remove the position of the Imperial Security Department after the coup day.
After personally experiencing the coup d'état on the day of the coup d'état, the baron, who was not too ambitious in his character, knew that he was not suitable to stay in such an important position as the Public Security Bureau—in the imperial capital, commanding 10,000 garrison troops, Such a position is really on the cusp.
The most important thing is that he is very clear that he is not the direct confidant of the Prince Regent.
After seeing that many once prominent families were wiped out after the coup, the baron took the initiative to put forward his request at the first time in order to seek stability.
Obviously, such a timely approach won the favor of the regent.
Soon, he got a high-ranking official title in the Department of Commerce of the Imperial Finance Ministry. Such a position made Baron Sark very satisfied. He could give up his military power with peace of mind, and this department of the Department of Commerce is really a place with a lot of money. .
Moreover, what made him most proud was that on the first day he took office, he befriended the young Grand Duke who was currently in the limelight, the young master Du Wei.
Du Wei personally visited the senior official of the Department of Commerce of the Ministry of Finance who just took office, and then the two drank tea happily for a while and chatted about some topics among the nobles, such as the weather, such as the recent scandal of a noble family, or the imperial capital. Some new things that appear in the book and so on. After establishing a certain goodwill towards each other, Duke Du Wei casually asked for a little help. Ask Baron Sark to help you get an approval document for the sale and operation of some "prohibited" products.
Of course Baron Sark would never refuse such a small favor.
So, three days later, Baron Sark received an invitation.
A store located in the center near the Arc de Triomphe of the Imperial Capital officially opened. This is a company specializing in rare monster furs from the frozen forest area of the Northland, as well as some precious magic cores and all kinds of things that even Baron Sark can't say.
Of course, the name of the owner of this shop is "Made".
Everyone knows that Mr. "Made" is the trusted servant of the young Grand Duke. So it goes without saying who the backstage boss of this shop is.
Except Baron Sark. The newly-appointed head of the Public Security Department of the Imperial Capital, Mr. Camisiro (that is, the undercover personnel of Prince Chen who played a key role in the coup d'état and ambushed next to the First Prince), and several senior officials of the Finance Department.
Even the chairman of the Magic Union received Du Wei's invitation.
Just this morning, on a bustling street near the Arc de Triomphe of the Imperial Capital, a store officially opened, which actually attracted the big bosses who are currently the core of the Imperial Capital.
Baron Sark, Commander Camisiro, and a general of the imperial guards of the military. As well as officials from the Ministry of Finance, and Count Villa who met Du Wei in the ecstasy cave outside the imperial capital (the guy who made up the quadruplet magic apprentices). In addition, to Du Wei's surprise, Although he didn't send an invitation, it was a famous symbol of that empire. In the Ecstasy Cave outside the imperial capital, there was a fat man nicknamed "The Monster of Delan Mountain" by Zhi Yuan, who also came to congratulate him in person.
In the court. Although Prince Regent Chen did not come in person. But a steward of the court was sent.
As for the magic union, the chairman will naturally not attend such a secular occasion, but Mage Clark, who has a good relationship with Du Wei, came to congratulate on behalf of the magic union as a deacon of the magic union.
In other places, some second-rate and third-rate nobles all looked at Du Wei, the hot young duke, and came to take the opportunity to win the relationship.
Such a "luxury" lineup has already experienced a coup d'état. The only gathering in the imperial capital where the core figures of the current imperial capital's dignitaries gathered.
This time, Du Wei bought a shop in Xiadi, which is a three-story building with a very good location. It is just at a crossroad on the Arc de Triomphe Avenue. Shops of some top-level luxury goods, rich and noble families. It can be said that the Arc de Triomphe Avenue is second to none in the imperial capital and is most loved by nobles. Gathered here are rare, precious, and rare commodities from all over the continent—of course. The price is also extremely expensive.
What makes Du Wei very satisfied is that he bought the shop this time. A small three-story building facing the street, with a rather sizable yard behind it, and a house behind it that can be used as a workshop. Behind the courtyard, the water channel of the Lancang Canal introduced into the imperial capital is not far away. Whether it is from a commercial point of view or a practical point of view, it is very worthwhile to buy this industry.
The only thing that surprised Du Wei was that according to his estimate, such a shop, in terms of its superior geographical conditions, might not be able to buy it for hundreds of thousands of gold coins. But the final transaction price was only less than 200,000 gold coins!
With such an outrageously low price, Du Wei quickly took to it.
he realized. This must be someone secretly showing favor to him. After all, he is currently in the limelight, and there are many people in the imperial capital who are willing to please him.
Finally, after he asked Made to check, he finally found out. The original owner of this shop seems to have a close relationship with that "Monster of Delan Mountain". Only then did Du Wei understand...
Sure enough, on the day of the opening, the fat man, the famous rich man of the empire, came to congratulate him in his ridiculously luxurious carriage.
Du Wei knows very well that today is definitely an excellent opportunity to make money. So he didn't have any intention of shy away from it (Originally, his status as a great nobleman, even if he owns any property under the name of the family, is done in the name of the family's cronies, and he will never come forward in person, so as not to lose his status.). But Du Wei didn't have such aristocratic consciousness at all. He dressed neatly himself that day. Completely pretending to be the owner, not caring about the taboos of status, he personally chatted eagerly with the congratulatory nobles in the shop that opened.
Each floor of this small three-story building is about the size of a basketball court.
Du Wei had asked Made to go to the slave market to spend a lot of money to buy several beautiful female slaves. According to the memory of his previous life, let these beautiful female slaves stand at the door in full-bodied costumes as welcome guests.
On the first floor of the shop, the main sales are some high-end goods from the frozen forest, some low-level monster furs, magic cores, and various rare goods made from monster bones.
A whole ship of goods was originally stored in the warehouse at Walker Port Wharf. Ruolin had already transported all of them to the workshop behind the shop.
Under Du Wei's instruction, the star in the store today is undoubtedly Miss Ruolin, the female knight!
Originally such an occasion. Ruolin felt that she should dress more luxuriously and formally, but Du Wei vetoed her idea and made Ruolin wear a set of outrageously gorgeous knight light armor. Du Wei also personally designed a particularly cool outfit for the female knight. Mouse Gargamel blessed the set of knight light armor with several magic gemstones overnight. In a red gem carved into a heart shape on the chest, there is a lighting spell of the light spell. This magic is purely a waste, because if anyone dares to bless a lighting spell on himself on the battlefield, he is definitely looking for death How to do it: You will become the best target for enemy archers!
But Du Wei doesn't care about these. After the blessing of this lighting technique, the whole set of armor seems to be shrouded in a layer of faint holy silver light. Baoguang circulates. Extremely gorgeous.
Behind the shoulders of the armor is a miniature Fengxi magic. After this kind of magical blessing was added, two extremely weak air currents were faintly maintained around the armor and kept rotating. This kind of weak wind is always turning, so that the bright red cloak that Du Wei personally selected behind the armor, which is as red as rose juice, maintains a fluttering posture at all times!
At the seams of the armor, Du Wei also asked Gargamel to mix in some pure gold silk threads for matching. And Du Wei even went through some precious ancient books and documents himself, and found out a few totem patterns that even Du Wei didn't know what they meant—as long as they looked mysterious enough. Just gorgeous enough.
Then let the craftsmen carve all the totem patterns on the armor, so that the armor is covered with hollow patterns-the original thin and light armor, coupled with so many gorgeous hollow patterns, makes it gorgeous. Ultimate!
As for the protection power... today's weather hahaha...
Under the packaging of such a gorgeous armor that is more than a paladin, a bright red cloak is added. The originally beautiful Ruolin is matched with her naturally outstanding hot and unrestrained figure—especially Her pair of long legs made Du Wei amazed, and Du Wei even spent a lot of money. The special envoy consumed a piece of ice and snow magic wolf land to make a pair of long leather boots for her!
After spending nearly 30,000 gold coins on the whole outfit. Under Du Wei's recommendation, the female knight Ruolin made her grand debut, and immediately stunned all the rich and noble men in the venue.
Although Ruolin's appearance may not be that top-level character. But after getting used to those gentle or pure or gorgeous women. The appearance of such a female knight with eight or nine points of appearance, just the novelty, is enough to make these guys feel novel.
A female knight, a young and beautiful female knight, with a tall and unrestrained figure, a sacred and gorgeous armor, and a delicate and charming appearance with a bit of a samurai... formed an effect that made Du Wei very satisfied.
"Everyone, let me introduce you."
Du Wei smiled and asked Ruolin to stand beside him, and Ruolin cooperated with her almost indifferent smile.
"This is my guardian knight, Lord Ruolin!" Du Wei smiled and said, "Your Excellency Ruolin is my right-hand man. The goods you see today from the frozen forest in the Northland are all from this A powerful female knight brought back from the northern kingdom!"
This statement is a bit of a sneaky change of concept, but Du Wei wanted to create such an effect.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, all eyes were on Ruo Lin. Earl Villa, who was still carefully appraising a monster core, and the big fat man Delanshan, who was still stroking the fur of a fiery red wind fox monster, now set their eyes on Ruolin. body.
This heroic female knight stood on the spot, with gorgeous armor, fluttering cloak, and a sexy light wheat-colored skin that had been exposed to the sea for a long time, which immediately made De Lanshan stunned.
After a moment of silence, Earl Villa was the first to speak. This handsome middle-aged man looked at Ruolin with a smile: "Your Majesty Ruolin, just now Your Excellency the Duke said... these rare things here are all from the ice. Brought from the frozen forest? Oh, gods, you are so beautiful, I am surprised that such a beautiful female knight like you still has the experience of being able to take risks in such a terrible place like the frozen forest!"
Ruolin knew very well in her heart that what Du Wei said deliberately caused the effect. But this is the meaning of the master, and she can only cooperate with acting.
although. These goods were indeed brought back from the Northland by her...but they were definitely not the ones she "hunted" with her own hands. In terms of Ruolin's real strength, she might not be able to deal with a female knight alone when encountering an ice and snow wolf.
Ruolin, who traveled around the mainland alone with a small adventure group since she was a child, definitely has a unique set of skills to deal with these noble men. She doesn't need to laugh, she doesn't need to pretend to be affectionate, and she just maintains the heroic appearance and aura that a knight should have. Reserved, coupled with Du Wei's painstaking "packaging", she quickly. She became the focus of today's gathering!
Many visiting nobles put aside the people around them and gathered around Ruolin.
Ruolin introduced the products in front of the nobles one by one in her deliberately reserved tone.
She has done her homework. Every thing sold here, every fur of Warcraft. The magic core, as well as crafts made from Warcraft bones. There were even some props for magical blessing that Gargamel made, and Ruolin recited their functions and origins very skillfully.
"Everyone, this is a shield made of the scale armor of an earth dragon. Although it looks small, its defensive power is quite good. You may not know that an earth dragon is a kind of magical beast that lives in the frozen forest. They are small in size. But the scales are very strong. Even the grudge of a fourth-level warrior can hardly split their scales! When we hunted these things back then, we spent a lot of effort. Such a shield It is made from the scales of three earth dragons. Compared with ordinary shields, besides being stronger, it has another great advantage... It is very light in weight. Of course, it is undeniable that it is also beautiful. That's because creatures like earth dragons live underground all year round. It has some underground mining crystals on its scales..."
Ruolin talked about each product. Immediately, some nobles who looked at her in a daze began to take out their wallets, and soon, in just one morning, all the products reviewed by Ruolin's Jinkou were all sold out.
In just one morning, the "sales" created by Ruolin alone reached 300,000 gold coins!
Almost half of the goods on the first floor of the store were sold by Ruolin alone!
Du Wei looked at Ruo Lin surrounded by a group of young male nobles, like the scene of stars supporting the moon. He smiled with great satisfaction. When Made quietly handed over the sales list for half a day, Du Wei was already grinning from ear to ear.
People with identities like Delanshan Warcraft, Earl Villa, etc., have already seen the clues. Although they were initially curious by Ruolin, a "specially packaged" focus person, after all, these people's knowledge Bu Fan quickly saw through these tricks played by Du Wei.
De Lanshan stared at Ruolin for a long time. Finally, he quietly came to Du Wei's side, sighed, and said in a low voice: "Master Duke, I really admire your means! This female knight Ruolin... Hehe, to be honest. Your products here are I don't think so, but if you are willing to part with this female knight Ruolin, I am willing to pay you one million gold coins... "
As soon as I said this, seeing a trace of displeasure in Du Wei's eyes, the fat man Delanshan quickly smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, my lord, how dare I hit your female knight's idea, I just thought, like if With a talent like Knight Ruolin, if the Lord is willing to lend her to me for a while, I still have a few shops in the imperial capital. If there is someone like Knight Ruolin sitting here, then... hehe! How about it? One million gold coins, I only need to ask Knight Ruolin to help me for a month, and I will treat your subordinate like the most solemn guest."
Count Villa seemed to have a very good personal relationship with this big fat man, he patted Delan Shandi's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Okay, you fat man, don't embarrass Your Excellency the Duke! Didn't you notice it
This female knight, hehe... She looked at our lord duke in the eyes. Not ordinary! Maybe this is the future Duchess! You fat man, you actually want the future duchess to be a shopkeeper with you! "
That Lord Camisiro just took over as the head of the Imperial Capital Public Security Department. He doesn't seem to be very interested in women, but he is very interested in the ridiculously gorgeous armor Ruo Lin is wearing, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice. Du Wei: "Your Excellency, the armor this female knight is wearing. I don't know where you are..."
Du Wei was taken aback, and took a look at Camisiro. He knew this guy and had dealings with him before. This guy is very loyal to Prince Chen, and he has been undercover under the First Prince for ten years. He must be a guy with extraordinary knowledge and excellent mental vision, that gorgeous but useless armor. It's fine to deceive those nobles who like to be gorgeous. People like Camisiro, who used to dance on the blade for many years, can't see the mystery in it
"Your Excellency." Camisiro smiled. His voice was a little hoarse, and he said in a low voice: "Is this set of armor? Of course I understand that it is useless, but it may be difficult for you to understand. I have been invisible under the hands of the late eldest prince for ten years! Ten years For a while, I tried my best to hide myself, and I was worried every day, for fear of being noticed... Alas, now I finally got through it, but I found that I have one more problem."
"Oh?" Du Wei glanced at this guy curiously.
"... I find that I like to be noticed more and more." Camisiro said this weird problem without any concealment: "Of course, I know you will never laugh at me... Maybe it's me I hope it can be a kind of compensation for myself! I never dared to wear this gorgeous armor before, but now, I just want to make myself more comfortable."
Du Wei understands that this is a kind of "compensatory" psychology. It's like a person who used to starve for many years, he pays special attention to food. And this Camisiro, a gold medal undercover agent, after saying goodbye to his undercover career, especially hopes to attract attention in order to make up for his ten years of swallowing his life.
"This is easy." Du Wei made a rough calculation in his heart: "I can make a set of armor for you, just treat it as a gift from me!"
"How can this be done!" Camisiro immediately refused: "I appreciate the kindness of the Duke, but can I, Camisiro, still afford such a small amount of money? Come to congratulate the Duke today, if you still get nothing for nothing , spread the word, and I, Camisiro, don't have to hang around in the imperial capital anymore!"
Du Wei smiled, and Camisiro ordered such a set of gorgeous armor at the price of "one hundred thousand gold coins".
Of course, there is also my dear Mage Clark, the magician who almost became Mr. Du Wei, and now occupies the position of deacon in the Magic Union. He came to congratulate him today and sent Du Wei a Great gift!
"Master Du Wei." Master Clark pulled Du Wei to the corner. Then he said with a smile: "I heard that you have a route that can hunt a large number of monster materials in the frozen forest all year round?"
Du Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at the mage.
"Don't get me wrong." Clark smiled and said, "You know, there are so many magicians in the magic union all the year round. In order to satisfy the magicians' consumption of magic materials, and those old monsters in the White Tower, All kinds of magic experiments are being carried out. Therefore, the magic guild purchases a large amount of magic raw materials every year, and the monster cores you operate, as well as some rare magic plants, are all on the magic guild's procurement list!"
Du Wei's eyes lit up immediately.
Afterwards, the conversation between the two immediately became intimate. In the end, Mage Clark signed a contract with Du Wei on behalf of the Magic Union. From now on, the Magic Union will purchase about 800,000 gold coins from the shops under Du Wei's name every year. . Among them, the main demand is Warcraft, and it is also equipped with a small amount of magic plants and the like. Of course, in exchange, Du Wei also hopes to purchase some minerals he needs from the magic union, especially some magic crystals and magic gems, which are scarce on the market and can only be obtained from the magic union. A large number of goods.
After initialing the contract, Clark looked at Du Wei with satisfaction, and then prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he added meaningfully: "Your Excellency Master Du Wei, Mr. Yagodouge asked me to bring you a sentence today: Please always remember your status as a magician, and the Magic Union will always be a magician." Your home!"
After speaking, the Master Clark left with a smile.
Du Wei sent away the envoy of the Magic Union, and carefully savored the words of Master Clark. Heartbeat!
Could it be... the establishment of the Magic Academy is about to start
