Under the leadership of Count Negan, Liu Zhe and Heidi walked along one of the corridors on the first floor to the conference hall.
As soon as he entered the conference hall, Earl Negan first found a sofa and sat down. At the same time, he waved his hand and signaled that Liu Zhe and Heidi would sit down together.
Seeing this, Liu Zhe quickly sat on a sofa. At the same time, the two servants quickly walked into the conference hall. After saluting Count Negan respectfully, they put the tea and snacks in their hands on the table and turned around and left.
After the tea and snacks were delivered, Earl Negan smiled kindly and said, "Eat more pastries on the table, don't be polite to me. Look, this is the famous purple taro cake in Agate City. It is limited to 100 servings per day. It is difficult to buy without any channels. And this is..."
Earl Negan introduced the pastries on the table to Liu Zhe. When Liu Zhe heard this, he immediately learned that these pastries were of great origin, and each of them had a different origin. They were treasures that were not necessarily available for money.
"I'm welcome." With the strong recommendation of Count Negan, Liu Zhe picked up a piece of purple taro cake and bit it. The full filling inside was instantly exposed to the air, and the rich fragrance gushed out like a spring!
As soon as the inner filling of the purple taro cake touched Liu Zhe's tongue, it immediately melted. The taste was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was indeed the best. Even Liu Zhe, who has always been not picky about food, couldn't help but praise him: "It's really delicious!"
Seeing Liu Zhe eating with relish, Heidi salivated her mouth and carefully reached out to pick up a piece of purple taro cake. She bit her mouth with one bite and said that she was full of happiness.
After hearing Liu Zhe's praise, the owner of Count Negan felt very proud and said happily: "Haha, as long as you like it, you can try this tea again. This is the famous Fenglan tea in the Lieyang Empire. There are rare varieties. Only the breeze hills on the southern border of the empire can produce. As for the taste of Fenglan tea, I won't say much, you can try it yourself."
Liu Zhe nodded, and immediately held up the ceramic tea cup in front of him with both hands, put his lips on him, and sipped a sip of Fenglan tea. Then, a refreshing breath filled Liu Zhe's mouth, as if a cool breeze was blowing in his mouth. After the refreshing and cool breeze, a faint sweetness followed, and the feeling that Liu Zhe could only be described as wonderful.
Although Liu Zhe did not speak out, the expression on his face already explained everything. Feng Lan Cha is indeed awesome.
Come back to his senses from the intoxicating charm, Liu Zhe couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Since this Fenglan tea can only be produced in one place, its value must be great, right?"
"Fenglan tea has always been in short supply in the Lieyang Empire, and it is natural that the price is high. Just the small sip you just drank thousands of gold coins. Of course, money is not the point. The point is that Fenglan tea can't be bought even if you have money. Even our Willbets can only buy two pots of tea in a year." Earl Negan's tone was a little proud. This Fenglan tea can be said to be his treasure. It is rarely taken out to drink it. Today I took it out to share it with Liu Zhe, which also somewhat showed his friendship.
"A small mouthful of money will cost thousands of gold coins?" Liu Zhe said astonished. He originally planned to ask Count Negan for some Fenglan tea, but after hearing what Count Negan said, he was embarrassed to ask for it now.
Time passed slowly, and after the food appreciation lasted for a while, Earl Negan changed his tone and returned to the main topic: "After eating pastries and drinking tea, we cannot forget our original intention. The main purpose of our visit to this conference hall is to talk. As you said just now, you seem to have something to talk to me, so why not let you talk first."
Hearing that, Liu Zhe cursed the old fox inwardly, saying that Count Negan didn't know what he wanted to say, Liu Zhe definitely didn't believe it. At this time, he asked himself to speak out, and his intention was self-evident, just to be prepared to sell his favor with the flow.
"I am worthy of being a man in charge of an Earl family." He smiled bitterly in his heart. In order to bring Heidi back, Liu Zhe had to speak, "Since I called you uncle, I won't beat around the bush. That's all, I'm just talking. My main purpose of coming this time is to bring Heidi back to Tianyou Academy. Although I don't know what you meant to bring Heidi back to the family, I think Heidi's own wish is very important. I believe that she does not want to leave the academy."
Hearing this expected topic, Earl Negan sighed meaningfully and said, "It's not that I'm unreasonable, but Heidi is too erratic. I think you should know that Heidi entered the academy as her brother Finger. Not to mention that fake identity violates imperial laws, she is a girl, even if she wants to go to school, she cannot enter school as a boy, let alone live in a boy's dormitory!"
"This... is indeed the case." Liu Zhe scratched his nose, speechless. Thinking of the encounter between him and Heidi, Liu Zhe still felt incredible that his roommate would be a girl.
Earl Negan continued, "Actually, I not only sent someone at once, but wanted to bring Heidi back to the family, but I didn't succeed at all. Although this little girl usually seems cowardly, but it is a headache to be stubborn, if I hadn't been to Tianyou Academy in person this time, I'm afraid she would have made trouble again."
"Father!" Heidi's face turned red, she waved her little hand in panic, trying to interrupt Earl Negan and continue.
Earl Negan joked, "Why, you are usually willful and not merciless at all. Are you afraid that people will know about it now?"
"Hai, Heidi is not like what his father said!" Heidi bulged her cheeks and shouted angrily. After speaking, her eyes turned from Earl Negan to Liu Zhe, and explained in a panic: "Brother Liu, don't listen to his father's random words, Heidi is not willful!"
Liu Zhe smiled and said, "Haha, Heidi is usually so well-behaved, it doesn't matter if she is willful occasionally."
"No..." Heidi explained in panic, and his rebuttal words kept shooting into Liu Zhe's ears like a machine gun. Judging from this situation, Heidi would definitely not stop until Liu Zhe believed it.
Seeing Heidi's anxious look, his eyes turned red. Liu Zhe couldn't bear it, so he agreed with her words: "I understand, I understand, Heidi, you should take a rest and have a sip of tea." As he said that, Liu Zhe handed the teacup on the table to Heidi.
Just as Heidi was resting and having tea, Liu Zhe finally had the opportunity to talk to Count Negan and said, "Uncle, Heidi has left the boys' dormitory and now lives in the same teacher's dormitory as us. In addition, there are two female students who usually take care of her. I don't think there will be any safety or life problems you are worried about. As for her academic status, I believe that as long as she talks to Vice President Tae-sung, this will be solved soon. Please consider it and allow Heidi to return to the college to study."
"..." Hearing this, Earl Negan was silent for a while, then came to Liu Zhe's expectations, nodded, and simply agreed, "Well, this is no problem."
"Uh, are you agreeing?" Liu Zhe was stunned. Before coming to Agate City, he heard Vice President Tae-sung's account of Earl Negan. This Earl Negan should be a very stubborn person. Today, in order to convince him, Liu Zhe had prepared a set of words and even made a decision to tempt.
Unexpectedly, I didn't continue to say what I said, so I simply agreed to the convenience.
"Yes, I promise you that Heidi will go back to the college to study." Earl Negan nodded, his expression was very refreshing. However, not long after he finished speaking, before Liu Zhe responded, Earl Negan added again, "But I have a condition."
Sure enough... Liu Zhe thought to himself, but at this time, when he heard Count Negan put forward the conditions, Liu Zhe felt much more at ease. If the other party agreed to his request without compensation, it would be strange.
Liu Zhe had a serious expression and asked, "What are the conditions?"
"Don't be nervous, this condition will not be too difficult for you." Seeing Liu Zhe's expression stern, in order to ease the tension, Count Negan immediately smiled and said, "I only have one condition, that is, I hope you can guide Heidi in his practice and ensure that Heidi can reach the strength of a level nine magician before the age of eighteen."
With Heidi's own talent, it is not difficult to reach level 9 before the age of eighteen, but it is impossible to guarantee 100% of the time. Even the best mentor cannot make a decision. After all, when will a bottleneck be encountered in magic practice, this is something that no one can predict.
Even though Heidi showed strong talent today, this does not mean that she will definitely reach level 9 in the future. At most, it can only be said that the chance is very high, but it is definitely not 100%. There is a very small chance that Heidi will be trapped in the bottleneck of level 8 or even level 7, which no one can say.
Facing the conditions of Count Negan, others might not dare to make a promise, but if it were Liu Zhe, it would be a different matter.
At this time, when he heard the request of Count Negan, Liu Zhe breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there is enough time, let alone level nine, he can even ensure that Heidi can successfully condense the magic power cyclone and enter the level ten realm that all magicians dream of!
It’s difficult to reach level 9 at the age of eighteen? No, it’s not difficult at all!
Time, system points, and system gems. As long as these three conditions are met, Heidi's future strength will not have any bottleneck. Of course, this is also applicable to Liu Zhe himself. In the face of a powerful redemption system, nothing is impossible!
After a while, under the expectant expression of Earl Negan, Liu Zhe smiled and his tone was full of confidence: "I agree to this condition."
