From this moment on, Meng Han no longer had the thought of needing to be recognized by the Magic Academy. So what if he truly became a magician? Cozmo was already a great magician, so wasn't he used as a scapegoat when needed?
The only inconvenience is that without the Magic Academy, it will be a big problem for you to learn more and more advanced magic. If you want to get a magic book, you will have to spend a huge price. The magic books in this world,
It is almost as precious as the design drawings of super weapons in previous lives.
Fortunately, for the time being, what Meng Han lacks most is gold coins. As long as the trouble can be solved by gold coins, it is not a trouble. After confirming this, Meng Han's mood improved a lot and he no longer felt so uncomfortable.
"I believe the rumors about the elf slaves will end within a few days, but if the elves really come to visit..." His Majesty the Grand Duke seemed to have made a decision, and did not give Meng Han a chance to refuse: "You have to give
They explained clearly that it was just a rumor."
"But, those two elf slaves?" Meng Han only showed such worry in front of the Grand Duke. Of course, this was done, otherwise, it would be strange not to be suspected by the Grand Duke.
"No. There has never been an elf slave, right?" His Majesty the Grand Duke looked at Meng Han with a smile and answered Meng Han's question with certainty. In his smile, there was a serious murderous intention that could not be concealed in any way:
"I don't want to see those two non-existent elves in your team. Do you understand?"
"What you are saying is that I have never seen an elf slave." Meng Han agreed, but secretly cursed in his heart, damn, ten thousand gold coins were erased with just such a sentence? This old man is nothing.
nice one.
"Of course, little Antonio, it's rare for me to see you. As an elder, I also need to give you some awards." Immediately afterwards, the Grand Duke seemed to have seen through Meng Han's thoughts, and immediately began to promise Meng Han benefits. Politically, this kind of
Things, to put it bluntly, are exchanges of interests, and it is impossible not to give them away. On this point, the old man knew it better than Meng Han: "If you have any requests, you can put them forward now."
"Your Majesty, I have indeed paid taxes to Earl Mars." Of course Meng Han would not be polite. If you are polite at this time, maybe His Majesty the Grand Duke will think that he has ulterior motives and kill him directly. The first thing to do is to pay the taxes.
Taxation has become an ironclad case that no one can overturn.
"Of course, Mars is a fool. He lost at least 20,000 gold coins for two hundred gold coins." His Majesty the Grand Duke agreed without hesitation, while also scolding Meng Han's immediate superior.
"In addition, Your Majesty, I have two guardian knights, and I hope to be canonized by Your Majesty yourself." At the very beginning, Meng Han promised Joey and Julie that he would win a knight title for them, and now it happens to be a knight.
Chance.
"Are they your two female knights? Joey and Julie? Of course there is no problem." As soon as the Grand Duke opened his mouth, Meng Han knew that the people around him seemed to know the old Grand Duke clearly. Even the people around him
He could remember a person's name so reliably, so he was obviously taking the opportunity to hit Meng Han and warn him about many things that His Majesty the Grand Duke was very aware of.
Meng Han is not afraid of him. The identity of Joey and Julie can be found out with snacks in Huangsha City. It is not a special secret. Now he is hesitating whether he should take the opportunity to ask His Majesty the Grand Duke for some high-level information.
After thinking about the method of cultivating fighting spirit, Meng Han gave up the idea. He could only find this kind of thing secretly by himself, and he could never tell His Majesty the Grand Duke of his principality, lest he suspect that he wanted to use these to achieve something unspeakable.
human purpose.
Both requests were not excessive and were granted immediately. Then, His Majesty the Grand Duke’s summons came to an end. After comforting Meng Han for a few words, His Majesty the Grand Duke signaled that Meng Han could leave. From beginning to end, His Majesty the Grand Duke,
No one mentioned how the 10,000 gold coins were calculated.
"Damn it, you can eat people without spitting out their bones!" Meng Han cursed bitterly, and then remembered the other culprit in the elf slave incident, Zunrong Auction House: "Huh, the wool comes from the sheep.
Let’s see how I can make you spit out this money!”
It didn't take much for anyone to say that Meng Han had just returned to the hotel and was soon informed that Derek, the manager of the auction house, had been waiting for him in the hotel for a long time.
"Sir!" After meeting, Derek was still so respectful, but his face was more or less embarrassed. No matter who it was, after participating in such a conspiracy, they found that the situation was beyond their control.
And it is so embarrassing when you have to do your best to solve the trouble for the person you were originally plotting against.
Sadly, Derek had to come because the rumors spread too quickly, making the auction house one of the protagonists. If Meng Han's purchase of elf slaves would offend the elves, then...
One can only imagine how an auction house that provides auction services will be viewed by the elves. As an auction house, it has been unknowingly and closely linked to Meng Han.
Derek didn't know how much he hated that damn guy who spread rumors. Although what he said was true, but now that His Majesty the Grand Duke has come forward and said that it was a rumor, then those words are just rumors. Derek's worry is
, will the elves think that it is a rumor?
Thinking of the words Meng Han left when he left, Derek had to endure the awkwardness and came to Meng Han. Apologizing was the second priority. How to eliminate the impact of this rumor was the top priority.
"His Majesty the Grand Duke summoned me and said that the elf slave thing was originally a rumor." Meng Han was not polite to Derek at all and directly made his request: "The elf slave has never existed. You know what I mean.
?"
"Of course, sir!" Derek has been running the auction house for so many years and has long been a human spirit. How could he not understand the meaning of this? He nodded hurriedly: "There are no elf slaves at all. This is a rumor."
"So, who was the buyer that night?" Meng Han gave another slight reminder. Of course Derek understood and smiled slightly: "We auctioned a top-quality magic core that day, and you, sir, took the top spot. This is the best thing for everyone.
Seen.”
"Yeah!" Meng Han seemed satisfied with Derek's answer: "It seems that's the truth, right!"
"Absolutely, sir, many people saw it clearly at that time." Derek confirmed Meng Han's words again.
"Very good, then, where is the top-grade magic core?" Meng Han suddenly changed the topic: "I am sure that these rumors have spread to the elves. If they ask, where is the top-grade magic core?"
"Huh?" Derek was stunned when he heard Meng Han's question. Hearing what Meng Han meant, he wanted the auction house to take out this top-quality magic core. However, this was not in compliance with the rules: "Sir, this..."
"What is this?" Meng Han also immediately frowned: "Did you forget that I spent 20,000 gold coins to buy the top-quality magic core? The auction house has not sent the magic core yet! Or, give it
Either I, the demon core, can send you my 20,000 gold coins, and you can take care of it yourself!"
Hearing that Meng Han instantly changed the 10,011 gold coins for buying elf slaves into 20,000 gold coins with red mouth and white teeth, Derek could not understand that Meng Han was taking advantage of the situation. However, what happened this time
If it is not settled, not to mention gold coins, even life will be in question. At this time, you have to give it even if you give it, and you have to give it even if you don't give it.
"Yes, sir, the magic core will be delivered tomorrow!" Derek is also a person. Since it has reached this level and His Majesty the Grand Duke has spoken personally, then this mute can only hold his nose and admit it. Who let them
When they first started designing Meng Han, their starting point was not good. This would only result in knocking out teeth and swallowing blood. Although this was also forced, since they couldn't afford to offend Meng Han now, they couldn't afford to offend the original elf slaves even more.
Master, it seems that this magic core can only be paid for by the auction house itself!
Loss within the wall makes up for it outside the wall. As a shrewd and successful businessman, Meng Han must of course find a way to minimize this loss. Now it looks good. Not only did he get two elf slaves for nothing, but he also defrauded an elf sword master.
As a bodyguard, he also made himself completely legal without paying taxes, and with the title of two guardian knights, he also got another piece of top-quality magic core for free. Such a business can only be described in one word:
value!
Compared with Meng Han's happiness, Derek now even wants to cry. As the director of an auction house, he does not agree with such a design for his customers, as long as he relies on the Staff of Life and the Silk Industry
He can honestly make a lot of money through the auction. However, he is only a supervisor and does not have the energy to control the real big boss behind him. Moreover, he also vaguely knows that the auction house is just an executor.
, the real mastermind is someone else, and he is even more untouchable.
All the rumors about the Stone Castle disappeared without a trace overnight, replaced by the news that Cozmo, the great magician of the Magic Academy, was hanged for spreading rumors. Hearing this news, I was almost still talking about it.
The guys who were spreading rumors among each other were all silent. A great magician would be hanged if he was told to be hanged, let alone these lowly people.
Only Ivan seemed very surprised when he saw Meng Han: "It seems that you are not as simple as a little viscount, right?"
Meng Han felt extremely proud that Sword Master Ivan could be so surprised, but he didn't say anything. He shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands to show his innocence.
