my age of magic

Chapter 1529 79. Business among nobles

Coming out of the study of His Majesty Charles, he returned to the noisy ball led by the original court attendant.

The soft and soothing music made my tense and depressed mood slowly relax. I walked back to the rest area of ​​Ying Li and Le Die and the princes and princesses of the Angibold royal family. A group of gorgeous court ceremonies The princesses in skirts propped their hands on the guardrail on the second floor. Everyone huddled together, chatting and laughing, and occasionally glanced from the dance floor, as if waiting for the invitation of the young nobles.

The princes gathered together in twos and threes. Each of these princes was accompanied by a gorgeously dressed noble lady. Some of them were talking in low voices with goblets, and some of them were competing at the billiard table. , and some are leaning on the railing of the stairs to search for the most beautiful figure on the dance floor. When I pass by them, there will always be someone who inadvertently falls on me. There are curiosity, temptation, disgust, and kindness in the eyes smile.

Seeing me returning with the court attendant, Helena pestered me to ask me to dance with her. I put my arm around her slender waist and looked for Ying Li's figure.

Under the gesture of Helena, I saw the center of the rest area not far away. The queen and Mrs. Manda were sitting and chatting together, surrounded by a group of noble ladies, and Ying Li and Le Die were standing obediently. Behind Mrs. Manda, Yingli saw me looking towards her, and quickly waved to me quietly. It seemed that she would stay with the Queen and Mrs. Manda there for a while.

On the dance floor, some big figures from the Grimm Empire were strolling with their arms around a plump lady.

Although Helena couldn't recognize the identities of all the important people, she also introduced many dukes from wealthy families to my ears.

While Helena and I were twirling on the dance floor, some lords greeted me as they passed by, and seemed to want to communicate with me.

As Alia said to me before, only when I am summoned by His Majesty Charles can I be truly recognized by the Angibald royal family. Probably only in this way will the lords of the imperial capital dare to establish a private relationship with me. connect.

Not long after I walked out of the slightly dull study in the palace, it seemed that many people here knew that I had just met His Majesty Charles, so many strange faces gave me good looks while dancing.

After the dance music ended, some lords even came over to greet me, and some lords sent me invitations to private dinners and dances.

Helena took my arm and squeezed out from the crowd with me.

At this time, Ying Li and Le Die had slipped back from Mrs. Manda, and when they saw Helena and I coming up from the dance floor, Ying Li curiously approached my ear and asked, "Your Majesty talks to you?" what happened?"

"It's nothing, His Majesty Charles said that he asked the Imperial Intelligence Agency to investigate me, and said that I owe you a grand wedding." I leaned on the soft leather sofa and said to Ying Li beside me.

Ying Li's pretty face was slightly flushed, she turned her head to look at the lively dance floor, she was about to speak but stopped, her big eyes looked at my side.

I turned my head following Yingli's gaze, just in time to see a noble young man standing beside me, handing me an exquisite gold leaf invitation card, and said to me with a smile: "Good evening! Marquis Jijia, I am Bei Patrick of Osorno County, Nassau, if you have time this weekend, I would like you to have a party."

I sat on the sofa, gave him a slight nod and took the invitation, my eyes fell on the earl medal on his chest, and I replied: "Hello, Earl Patrick, thank you for your invitation, if I have time, I will definitely will go."

Hearing this, the young count said to me, with his hands across his chest, "Then I wish you a pleasant evening."

After speaking, the young earl named Patrick turned and left.

Ying Li looked at the back of Patrick leaving, and asked me curiously: "When did you know the nobles in Bena Province?"

I spread my hands and said, "I don't know him at all."

"Then why did he invite you to a private party?" Ying Li asked with some doubts.

In fact, I don't know either, so I can only say vaguely: "Maybe you can make friends with me, who knows!"

The music sounded again, and I saw Becky sitting on the side looking at me from time to time with a look of anticipation.

I had to reach out again, pull her up from the seat, and hug her into the dance floor.Becky's seaweed-colored long hair hangs down to her waist. Her waist is very energetic, and she almost clings to me when dancing. I can clearly smell the faint scent of camellias in her hair.

On the dance floor, I saw a familiar face. The elf girl Tinuviel was dancing with a young man dressed as a prince. The prince seemed to speak in a humorous way. A knee-length gauze skirt with the same style as Ledie, this kind of skirt that can reveal half of the fair calf and crystal sandals is an elf-style dance skirt, delicate face, blue eyes, I don’t know how many young people on the field Eyes always fall on her from time to time.

As soon as the music ended, Ernestine took Becky and me out of the dance floor, and she took me into the circle of friends she and Zach had. The group of friends I introduced to him, these aristocrats are from some wealthy aristocratic families, and one of them is actually a small lord who inherited the family business and owns an ordinary plane, with thousands of private troops stationed there Fortunately, that plane has not been invaded by dark forces for the time being.

Zac was only wearing a white silk shirt, the button on the collar was unbuttoned by him, and the bow tie was drooping at the side, revealing his strong chest muscles, but the light green skin reduced a lot of beauty. Zac's friends seemed to be knights. Even if they were attending a ball, if they were wearing decorative sabers, they were discussing the Angela multi-plane war, and discussing how long it would take for His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles to return to the imperial capital.

Some people think that once these reinforcements officially enter the battlefield, they will definitely defeat the Nacoma on the opposite side, and some people think that the Nacoma have been operating in the plane of Ahn'Qirad for so long, and they will not easily give up what they are doing now. The occupied territory, the Nacomma fighters on the front line are likely to fight back, and they should be able to hold on for a while, and the Constructed Knights of the Green Empire probably need to spend some time thinking about this hard bone, so if now If we continue to organize support groups, perhaps His Royal Highness Charlie will not refuse.

There are always such a group of small lords in the imperial capital. They have some territory in their hands and a limited number of constructed knights. The power of these small lords is usually easy to suppress a certain aborigine, but let them fight against the dark forces. The Nacoma Legion might lose their money after only one battle, so many small lords dare not gamble until they are sure that they will win.

Now the Ahn'Qirad plane is affected by the general trend, and the victory of the battle is almost at your fingertips, so many small leaders have taken the initiative to go to the Ahn'Qirad multi-plane to reap some benefits. There are also such nobles in Zach's circle of friends Lord, they will not stand up to help when the Duerva Legion is trapped in the quagmire of the Hierro plane war, but now they are on top of the fat of the Ahnqirador plane, and they want to take a bite and get some benefits But there are many people there.

So someone came to Zach at this time and talked about the situation on the plane of Ahn'Qirad, saying that the Constructed Knights in Zac's hands are currently in a rest period, and the reorganized Knights still need some training. , now that the multi-plane battle of Ahn'Qirad has started, why don't you take a share of the pie and so on.

Although Zach is a Northwest knight with a rough personality, he has experienced some ups and downs recently, and he is no longer as simple-minded as before. As long as he thinks it is feasible, he will rush forward regardless of his head. He often Before making a certain decision, he will discuss it with Ernestine. It is estimated that the two people have already discussed the matter of AhnQirad multi-plane, so Zach has his own ideas. No matter how some friends around him talk about it, They all showed no interest at all.

He stood among the crowd, with a hint of laziness on his resolute face, he cast his eyes on me, and said to me: "Ji Jia, what do you think of this battle on the plane of Ahn'Qirad? "

"If I had an integrated Constructed Knights Order, I would definitely fight against the past, but I don't have an integrated Constructed Knights Order, so I will not go to the plane of Ahn'Qirador." I sat in Zha He walked over to Ke, took two glasses of golden cider from the tray in the waiter's hand, and put the empty glasses back on the tray.

Seeing me handing Becky a glass of golden cider, Ernestine who was sitting across from me smiled slightly and said, "Forget it, even if you have ten Constructed Knights, you won't interfere with Ahnquilador." Plane battle."

Zac rubbed his hands, looked around at the noble friends around, and said to me: "Jijia, can you supply me with some magic crossbow bolts recently?"

"Okay!" I replied readily.

"..."

Probably Zach had prepared some rhetoric, but I didn't expect that I agreed without hesitation, and those rhetoric were all useless.

Recently, most of the giant crossbow arrows produced by the magic seal workshop were supplied to the logistics department of the South Wind Legion. Earl Konrad had already shipped these giant crossbow arrows to the plane of Rocky, and some of them were supplied to Louis Mensah , this batch of giant crossbow arrows also followed Louis to the plane of Ahnquila. At present, although the magic seal workshop produces a large number of giant crossbow arrows every day, in fact, there is no large order right now. At this time, Zach happened to be with me When it came to this matter, I naturally readily agreed.

I rubbed my forehead and said to Zach: "The price is still in accordance with the old rules. When will I get the goods?"

Zach hesitated before saying, "Of course, the sooner the better."

I can tell that the reason he asked me about the magic crossbow arrows this time was actually for these noble friends. Of course, Zach and Ernestine would not enter with the Constructed Knights during this period. The idea of ​​multiple planes in Ahn'Qiraj, but the nobles around Zac seem to be planning this.

I said calmly: "It's better to make a list for me, so that I can send someone to prepare it, then go to the Rune Workshop to pick up the goods this weekend, remember to bring the gold coins, the value of the magic spar has been depreciated too fast recently, I will give you that item There are so many in the warehouse, I don’t want it, if you must trade it with magic spar, then the exchange rate is one to four.”

Seeing that I agreed, Zach seemed very happy, and he fully agreed to use gold coins as the transaction currency.

I thought that this group of people only wanted to buy the arrows of the giant crossbow, but I didn't expect Zach to say: "Okay, Jijia, that... there are some items that need to be bought from you."

I rubbed my forehead a little speechlessly, and asked Zach: "What else? You still want to buy a bed crossbow, right? I don't have that here."

"It's not a bed crossbow. I heard that you are in control of the trade between the imperial capital and the orc tribes of the Pai Plateau. I want to buy some elementary magic herbs from the Pai Plateau. It is best to provide me with some of that magical fire oil." " Zach said with some embarrassment.

I bowed my head to calculate, and then said to Zach: "The fire oil can't be provided to you. Now that the orc tribe is fighting with the undead, don't even think about that kind of strategic material. The orcs themselves don't have enough. After a long time There is probably no such thing as corpse fire oil. As for magic herbs, I can provide some, but the transaction of magic herbs is based on the market price of the previous day in the magic market of the imperial capital."

The reason why I agreed to provide magic herbs is actually for a certain reason. First of all, the high-quality healing potions I currently provide to the South Wind Legion are made from high-grade magic herbs from the unnamed island. Marvin recently brought them from the orc tribe. A lot of elementary magic herbs came back, almost all of which were hoarded in the warehouse of Qige Trading Company. At present, the amount of this batch of elementary magic herbs is already quite huge.

In addition, I also have a herb garden on the other side of the round valley of Xinliu Valley, and there are also primary magic herbs produced there.

So I don’t lack magic herbs recently, but I haven’t found time to find a suitable buyer for this batch of magic herbs recently. Now that Zach has stood up and said that he wants to buy a batch for his noble friends, I have nothing to do Rejected, so he agreed.

"No problem!" Seeing me agreeing, Zach happily raised the wine glass in his hand and bumped it against me. The glass made a crisp sound of 'ding' in the air.

At this time, the group of young nobles around them raised their wine glasses one after another, and drank the wine in the glasses with excitement.

The dance of the Harvest Festival ended in such a cheerful atmosphere. Yingli and I left the Floating King City and walked out of the magic teleportation circle. It was already past midnight.

There are still many magic caravans parked on the lakeside avenue outside the magic teleportation array. Yingli and I boarded the magic caravan and returned to the lakeside manor...
