The two old mages seemed very happy about Ke Wen's arrival.
It should also be introduced that the bald old mage's name is McClain Cannon. He is a magician who specializes in studying water and ice elements.
Although the things he studies are relatively cold, his personality is very enthusiastic. He was the one who communicated with Kewen before.
Another completely bald old mage named Arpad Purdu is a scholar who specializes in the study of 'arcane energy'.
Because he is too keen on academic research, he usually seems dull. Only after developing a research topic, he becomes eloquent.
…
Kewen was taken to the material library of the Mage Tower by two old mages.
The balding Master Cannon opened the door, pointed at the various materials inside and said, "Master Quinn, take a look, these are all the materials we can buy."
"What is missing are those materials that are prohibited from trade by 'Dalaran' and the 'High Elves'. Unless His Majesty the King speaks, we cannot obtain permission to purchase from those two 'Magic Capitals'."
Kewen nodded and responded sincerely: "Thank you so much, Master Cannon and Master Purdu."
"Where is that?" Master Cannon waved his hands repeatedly: "Mr. Quinn, you have supplemented the entire magic system of 'Earth Magic' for our profession. If you make this result public, you should even be able to get 'Dalaran'
of parliamentary seats.”
Master Purdu nodded in agreement and rarely agreed, "That's right, so your small request for us to buy magic materials is simply too trivial."
Kewen understood the characters of the two old mages, so he stopped being polite. He reached into his pocket and asked at the same time: "So, how much do these materials cost?"
The two old mages were stunned at the same time, and then Master Cannon waved his hand again: "No, no, no, these materials are not worth much, just think of it as a return gift from us!"
"That's right, that's right!" Master Purdu also echoed.
He shook his head quickly, causing the light to continuously reflect on his shiny scalp: "It's just a material of less than six thousand gold, how can we let you pay for it! Otherwise, your complete system of 'earth magic'
We two old men can’t even afford to sell it for knowledge!”
Ke Wen couldn't resist the two old mages, so he had no choice but to smile helplessly: "Then you can help me introduce these materials. Oh, by the way, tell me the prices of various materials."
The two old mages thought that Ke Wen was still obsessed with the price, so they spoke again.
Ke Wen waved his hands like a prophet and interrupted: "I have very little contact with the mage forces, so in order to avoid someone fooling me about the price in the future, I would like to trouble you both to tell me the price together."
Hearing this, the two old mages thought about it, so they nodded and agreed.
"Come here first." Master Cannon called to Coven and walked to a pile of crystal bottles, pointing to the dust of different colors in the bottles and said: "These are the various magic dusts needed for 'enchantment'
, and various magic essences.”
As he said that, Master Cannon thought of another thing and quickly added: "By the way, Master Quinn, we have finished sorting out the 'Enchanting Science' and will get it to you when we go to the library."
"Okay, thank you." Ke Wen nodded in response.
Next, the two old masters continued to introduce the functions and prices of various materials to Kewen.
…
As the gathering time approached in the afternoon, Kewen gave each of the two old mages a 'space pocket', and then said goodbye and left the mage tower.
Speaking of which, there is magic similar to the "Mage's Hand" in this world, which is a means of pulling "arcane energy". By pulling the ubiquitous "arcane energy", it can pull items over at the same time.
The two old mages know this kind of 'arcane traction', so the two 'space bags' are very convenient for them.
The two old mages are equally interested in the principle of the 'space bag', and they are extremely interested.
But they no longer have any trump cards to exchange knowledge with Ke Wen.
As a last resort, the two old mages could only suppress their desire in their hearts, and then said that when Ke Wen comes over next time, they must call their respective granddaughters to get to know Ke Wen.
Kewen has a clear mind, how could he not see the thoughts of the two old mages.
So he could only pretend not to know whether to laugh or cry, and left vaguely and perfunctorily.
Not long after, Ke Wen met Natalie at the door of the "Public Stable" in the trading area.
"How was it?" Ke Wen asked with a smile: "How was the intelligence gathering?"
Natalie shook her head and said helplessly: "I went to Xicheng District and inquired. There is no vacant land there, so if I want to buy a house from the residents, I am afraid it will cost at least more than 4,000 gold coins.
, and it’s also a very small house.”
While talking, the two of them also walked into the stable and took out their mounts.
While leading the horse towards the city gate, Ke Wen said: "Isn't there a big open space over there?"
"No ah."
Natalie was puzzled: "I took a look and found that all the buildings were tightly packed in a circle, and I didn't see any free land."
"Doesn't the middle square count?" Ke Wen said with a smile.
"Square?" Natalie was stunned for a moment, then said in a funny tone: "Are you planning to build a house in the middle of the square? Wouldn't it be awkward to be stared at by the surrounding residents every day?"
"You..." Ke Wen smiled and shook his head: "The pattern needs to be bigger."
Gu Zhen
"How do you say it?" Natalie asked.
Ke Wen asked back: "Look, our current initial development is pretty good, right?"
"Yeah." Natalie nodded: "Not only is it good, it's a great success."
"So, why aren't our visions for the future bigger?"
Ke Wen grabbed the reins and stopped his mount, waiting for the cart crossing the street in front of him. At the same time, he said: "You think, if we make more money and make the team's reputation even better, then why not transfer the 'Xicheng District'
How about taking the land of the square and building a small castle fortress there?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Castle Fortress!?" Natalie almost exclaimed: "What are you going to do?"
"Let's set up an adventurers guild or something."
The pedestrians in front finally passed. Ke Wen continued to lead the mount forward and said with a smile: "At that time, we will start to form a more formal guild to gather adventurers near the royal capital and accept various commissions.
The work is left to the adventurers, and we take a small commission from each task..."
"etc!!!"
Natalie spoke in a sharp voice, raising her hands to stop her in astonishment: "Wait a minute, give me some time to react..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was immersed in thinking, carefully recalling every word Ke Wen said.
Ke Wen stopped the horse again and looked at Natalie with a smile on his face as he waited.
After a long while, Natalie suddenly took a breath of cold air, and she finally figured out what Coven said.
With an unbelievable look on her face, Natalie said tremblingly: "Oh my God! If we really get it out... I mean, uh, the Adventurer's Guild!"
Taking a deep breath again, she said with sparkling eyes: "We really created a guild! Then we can make money lying down!?"
Ke Wen chuckled and nodded: "At that time, making money will become secondary because it is too easy."
Natalie asked hurriedly: "Then what is the main thing!?"
Ke Wen secretly felt like "Fairy Tail", with a happy smile on his lips: "We will get a lot of information by accepting and issuing tasks. This is a way to make money, and we can buy the information to those who need it."
"Also, when the guild's position is stable, it can also bring the adventurers back, and then make the guild a force that no one can ignore."
"After that, the guild can even cooperate with the kingdom, such as taking on some tasks to assist in the war."
"Anyway..."
Ke Wen didn't want to stand idle on the street and talk too much, so he concluded: "If it really reaches that point, whether it's money, power, or status, we can get it at our fingertips."
"hiss--"
Natalie choked on the cake drawn by Coven, and couldn't help but once again contribute to the warming of 'Azeroth'. Then, a moment of anxiety quickly flashed in her eyes.
"Kevin!"
Natalie suddenly pulled the reins back, turned the direction of the war horse, and said at the same time: "The plan you mentioned is so exciting! So you go back to 'Golden Town' by yourself first! I want to go to 'Xicheng District' again! Again
Go and inquire about the land in that square!"
Ke Wen knew what the other party really wanted to do.
However, he just pretended not to know, smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I will go back by myself first."
"good!"
As Natalie led the war horse back to the 'public stable', she said without looking back: "When I find out more about it, let's discuss it together when we get back!"
"Are you okay with yourself?" Ke Wen asked with a smile.
Natalie didn't respond, she just raised her left hand and waved it behind her.
"hehe……"
Kewen chuckled lightly, then shook his head and led his mount towards the city gate.
…
As expected, the news that Natalie brought back in the evening was a serious blow to the forward-looking plan that Coven casually mentioned.
According to Natalie, she inquired with many relevant officials and found that the square in the 'Xicheng District' was not allowed to be occupied by anyone at all.
Ke Wen smiled and said it didn't matter.
He knew that after Natalie reported the plan, as long as the people above were not stupid, they would never let the plan come true.
The kingdom will never allow such an 'Adventurers' Guild' force to appear. Even if a similar force appears, its leader must not be an adventurer.
In response, Kewen temporarily put the random plan behind him.
It depends on the situation later. Who can fully control the future situation...
