The mage arrives

With powerful military force as his backing and that bald-headed Bellalucci as an undercover agent, Gordon easily wiped out all the smugglers.

On the other hand, the progress of wiping out the remnants of the Aldrich family in the north is also very smooth.With the help of the slaves who were previously persecuted by the Aldridge family, Gordon's army successfully cleared one after another of the bunkers guarding dangerous terrain and traffic arteries, and then methodically acquired one after another villages and forest farms. , plantations, and mines.

This kind of advancement continued until the northernmost tip of the Haiwen Peninsula, at the junction with Changxia Province, stopped.

Then, those skilled civil servants who were sent to the Haven Peninsula as a gift from the Phoenix family immediately began to work, and made a great contribution to Gordon's rapid filling of the power vacuum left by the Aldrich family's demise.

Then, it was time for the Phoenix family fleet to leave.

In addition to Ms. Vironka, Miss Jier Phoenix and her younger sister Xiona were also accompanied by the fleet through the Sea of ​​Steam and returned to the Long Xia Province.In addition, Gordon asked Yi Lei and Yi Lian, the twin maids, to leave with Xiona.

Anyway, he was going to leave for Vesula Mountain soon, and the two sisters stayed in Sea Cliff Castle, and they had nothing to do, so they might as well go out to broaden their horizons.The two little girls are playful at an age, and they will get bored if they stay in the castle every day.And Xiona needs someone to take care of her too.Since my younger sister was too obsessed with swordsmanship, she has been a little careless about her diet and daily life.

Although Gordon feels that his sister is no matter what.They are all cute.But as the battlefield angel of the empire, a noblewoman with the title of earl must always pay attention to her personal image.

"Earl of Haven. When I return to the port of Alodan, I will personally help you train a usable navy. Your small merchant and fisherman-born crew will soon become well-trained sailors." Veron Ms. Ka said.

This time, Gordon also sent ten warships carrying five hundred sailors and five merchant ships to leave with the Phoenix family fleet.As part of the content of the cooperation between the two families, the Phoenix family promised within three months.Help Gordon train a fleet with combat qualities comparable to the Imperial Navy.

Gordon, on the other hand, gave the Phoenix family a trade order worth [-] gold coins.Among them were [-] gold coins, all of which were used by Gordon to purchase high-quality gemstones necessary for making elemental keys.

"I believe in the ability of 'Victor' Vilonka. This little thing is easy to do." Gordon said.He looked at the tall female soldier in front of him, wearing a fiery red cloak, standing upright in the sea breeze like an iron pine tree.I admire it very much.But when I thought about it, she was actually an Anisha believer who adhered to the concept of taking care of her family.I think this world is really amazing.

Vilonka gathered the cloak that was blown by the sea wind, then glanced behind her, and said, "Okay, you young people should have a lot to say when we part, so I won't disturb you."

Lady Vilonka stepped aside, and boarded the battleship, which was ready to hoist sail.

Miss Jier, who was originally standing behind her, walked up to Gordon in a few steps.

The girl pursed her lips twice, as if she was about to speak.Then he suddenly asked: "Gordon, what happened to the 'Adventurer Preferential Act' you promulgated yesterday?"

Gordon listened.Suddenly a little stunned.Now that we are about to part, shouldn't we say something like taking care of your health and having a date?Fortunately, this young lady actually discussed political affairs with me.

Ms. Vilonka, who hadn't gone far, heard Jier's words, but she smiled knowingly: "This girl is still not good at expressing her heart. She obviously hates that kid, but she doesn't dare to say it outright. Instead Those little girls from other families had already captured the man's heart with tearful parting words. It turned out that she was reluctant to part, and didn't dare to speak directly, so she could only talk about irrelevant things... It seems that brother There was a big problem with the way Jier was raised in the past."

Ms. Vironka smiled helplessly and boarded the battleship.And Gordon, although he was a little puzzled, still explained to Miss Jier: "It is said that the treasure of the ancient Netherdulan magic empire is hidden in Mount Vesula, and it will be opened every ten years. Now the time to open it is coming soon. I feel that such information should not be hidden. Adventurers from all over the continent have the right to venture into Weisula Mountain."

Gordon promulgated his first decree since taking office as the lord of Haven yesterday: the Adventurer Preferential Decree.

In the decree, the secrets of Vesula Mountain were announced.Moreover, Gordon also made it clear that adventurers from all over the mainland are welcome to explore Mount Weisula, and as long as they spend five gold coins to purchase a special adventure certificate, they can get a [-]% discount on all consumption in the Haiwen Peninsula.

Jill really didn't understand Gordon's decree.

She is an important guest of Sea Cliff Castle, so she knows more or less about the secrets of Vesula Mountain.Although she doesn't know the key secrets such as Aisa Augustus, Jewel of Destiny, and Elemental Keys, she also knows that there is a palace ruins from the ancient Netherdulan magic empire era in the mountain, which contains rich treasures, powerful Magic props, knowledge of infinite value.

So she didn't know about Gordon's move to make this secret public.

"I don't believe your high-sounding words... Huh, you are the best at deceiving people." Ji Er stared beautifully, a little dissatisfied with Gordon's perfunctory.

"Okay, you win, Miss. I will satisfy your desire to get to the bottom of it." Gordon raised his hands, as if I surrendered, and then smiled, "Of course I announced this information to attract adventurers. Visitors come to Haiwen Peninsula to drive economic development here. This is probably a tourism industry.”

Although she has never heard of the new term "tourism", Jier still understands Gordon's intentions: "Adventurers come to the Haiwen Peninsula to eat, drink, stay, and buy various supplies for adventure. .You can take this opportunity to make a lot of money, right?"

"Yes." Gordon nodded.

After Gordon's business partner Du Luo followed him to the Haiwen Peninsula, although he hadn't made any big moves, he was not idle either.Because the aborigines of the Haiwen Peninsula were not the target customers of Douluo's products, this former adventurer who already had some business experience did not rush to open a store in the new city, but actively searched for reserve goods every day.

Now, Douro already has a batch of sufficient goods in his hands.After Gordon's "Adventurer's Preferential Decree" was promulgated, the magic shop "Duro's Treasure Chest" also officially opened.

After the secrets of Vesula Mountain and Gordon's decree are spread, more and more adventurers will flock here, bringing countless wealth.

"With your character, would you just watch the treasure in Vesula Mountain being taken away by other adventurers? That is the ruins of the palace of the Netherdulan Magic Empire! The treasure buried in it may be worth more than what you can get from the adventurers. The money earned is much more." Ji'er was still a little puzzled.

It is really not worthwhile to give up the entire Wesula Mountain just to attract adventurers to the Haiwen Peninsula and earn gold coins from these outsiders.

According to Jier's idea, Gordon should strictly guard the secrets of Mount Weisula, and send heavy troops to block all the entrances to the mountain when the passage in the mountain is opened every ten years, so that this mountain can become a place where only Fry A private territory that only the Man family can enter.

"My eldest lady." Gordon said slowly, "There must be many precious treasures from the era of the magic empire buried in Mount Vesula. But so what? Even if there are artifacts buried in the mountains, they are of no value until I get them The scale of the palace ruins in Vesula Mountain is even twice as large as the Danzig ruins in the Northland that the two of us have visited. With the strength of the Freeman family alone, if we want to complete the exploration of such a huge group of ruins , I’m afraid it will take several generations. Although people often say that you need to take a long-term view, in the current situation, the Freeman family, which is ready to do everything, needs resources that can be obtained immediately, rather than this It is a treasure trove that requires countless manpower and time to develop."

"You're right to say that." Ji'er nodded her understanding.But after staring at Gordon's face carefully for a while, she said again, "But I always feel that you, a mage full of ghosts, have other plans... By the way! The ruins of the palace on Vesula Mountain Among them, there must be countless traps and traps set by the great Nesser arcanists back then. I am afraid that you have bad intentions by hyping up the ruins of Mount Vesula and attracting adventurers to the Haiwen Peninsula... Huh, let those cannon fodder first Help you clear all kinds of obstacles in the ruins, and then you can easily enter the mountains and get the treasure... This business is really profitable. Those poor adventurers will not only offer you a lot of money, but also Use your own life to help you clear the traps and traps in the mountains."

Gordon looked at the blonde lady in front of him in surprise, and said, "Unexpectedly, when you were in the Danzi ruins, Ji Er, you were still a stupid girl who was tricked by bad men, but now you can get rid of a simple one of mine. From the decree, we can see the real intention behind it.”

"I'm not a stupid girl!" Ji'er was very dissatisfied with Gordon's statement, "I was just inexperienced in the Danzig ruins last time. Now I have been in contact with a mage like you who is full of evil ideas for a long time, and I don't want to change. It's impossible to be smart."

"I have the right to take it as a compliment from the eldest lady of the Phoenix family, and accept it all."

"Who...who is praising you..." Jier's face suddenly turned pink, and she twisted the corners of her clothes with her slender hands. (To be continued..)
