I was not pretending to cry just now, but I really missed my mother.

It's just that the emotional catharsis is a little exaggerated.

Roland sat there, thinking about every moment when his parents were still alive, and the joy of receiving ten times the compensation disappeared.

Just as Grandet took out the cargo inventory, Roland suddenly asked: "Can the souls that crossed the river of the underworld still be found?"

"what did you say?"

Grandet was stunned for a long time before he responded, "You want to find the souls of your parents?"

"Correct."

After thinking for a moment, Grandet said frankly: "I can't say."

"Thank you, I know the answer."

The smile returned to Roland's lips. He took the goods list and read it carefully, as if nothing had happened.

If you can't do that, you can directly stop his thoughts. However, the profiteer's answer is that you can't tell.

It cannot be said that there are many explanations.

For example, the big boss behind Grandet was not allowed to speak.

Or maybe Roland is not qualified enough to know this.

In a world where gods and magic exist, miracles always exist.As long as he's strong enough, this won't be a problem.

He had been involved in the whirlpool, but he was too weak to see the rough waves outside.

A mysterious elf girl came to him with a gold coin.

The star warlock from the Star Gazing Club lives in the castle and has no intention of leaving.

A simple-minded barbarian girl would not have unnecessary thoughts, but maybe there is someone behind her?

He didn't want to get to the bottom of things. He always looked at people and dealt with things based on their merits, regardless of their intentions.

Those who treat him well will be treated with greater kindness in return.

Those who are his enemies must repay him tenfold.

My mother said, be kind to the people around you and don’t ignore their expectant looks.

Roland is a good boy and of course he is willing to listen to his mother.

Be kind to the people around you, let’s start with the loyal and fearless Granny.

Although Grandet repeatedly encouraged him to buy some high-class maids with fair skin, beauty and long legs, Roland had been suffering from PTSD from Julie and Lanna.

He asked back: "For high-class maids worth one or two thousand gold coins, can you guarantee their absolute loyalty? Can you guarantee that no one controls them behind the scenes? It's difficult."

"I would rather find a partner in the real world than buy someone."

Grandet was speechless by Roland's barrage of questions. He smiled and shook his head and stopped talking.

His job is just to keep track of the shopping list and nothing else.

"This set of ancestral protection armor, mark it down!"

"Okay, three hundred gold coins."

"Remember this sword of ancestral glory!"

"Okay, five hundred gold coins."

......

Roland went crazy and bought a set of equipment worth [-] gold coins for Granny, a Fertile Field Longbow for Melanis, and an energy amplification ring for himself, spending all the money he had left. Three hundred gold coins.

What are three hundred gold coins enough for?

You can buy several loyal maids like Julie and Lanna.

Roland glanced at the maid section of the cargo list and quickly turned the pages.

Praise God, this sinful act of human trafficking must be banned!

From today on, anyone within his jurisdiction who dares to commit such a crime will be hanged without trial.

He had absolutely no intention of avenging any personal vendetta. He was just faithfully fulfilling the laws recognized by the mainland countries.

The Bow of Fertile Field allows Melanith to snipe enemies gracefully from a distance.

The Ancestral Blessing set can make Granny feel secure when charging.

The energy amplification ring can greatly increase his magical power.

Other equipment can either be made by a blacksmith without spending a lot of money; or it can be too expensive to afford.

Of course you can save money, but the gold coins given by God will not give birth to babies. If you don't use them to improve, you will be like ants crawling on you.

Roland still wanted to consume it immediately.

He raised his head and asked: "Are there any props related to stargazing?"

"Lord Roland, although you have earned the title of Stargazer, you don't understand astrology. You have no need for these things at all, so don't waste your money. I seriously suggest that you consider a maid with a level of three hundred gold coins. , there are really good products, the ones with a pure body are better if you live with more water. Hey, don't refuse it yet, I..."

"If you don't know it now, it doesn't mean you can't learn it in the future. Maid trading is a crime. I have already paid the price for it, and I ask Mr. Grandet to take care of himself."

"Okay, this is an astrology-related prop. The cheapest one costs three hundred gold coins."

Grandet shrugged and handed Roland the booklet with a deep starry sky on the cover.

I don’t know what Roland was thinking when he refused to buy the soft and cute night maid and insisted on buying astrology props that he didn’t need at all.

Forget it, stay out of your guests’ affairs. This is the principle of astral merchants!

He made an exception twice today to recommend products to Roland but was rejected. He didn't want to do it a third time.

Chapter 21 You have a share today!

Reciprocity is a traditional virtue.

Egilina helped Roland a lot. Although the investment in the stargazing club would eventually pay off, she was the one who gave him a helping hand when he was in the most difficult time.

Arguments don't matter.

Just because help requires reciprocation does not mean that the person who lends a helping hand is bad.

Roland doesn't like the moral kidnapping that good people have to suffer.

He was about to accept a new territory from Egilina, but he had nothing to give in return, so he might as well spend the three hundred gold coins given by the gods to buy whatever he could.

It's my intention anyway.

Equipment and props related to astrology were listed in separate volumes, which surprised Roland.

Opening the list, Roland instantly understood what an elite profession was.

No wonder every Star Warlock has at least one duchy.There is no way to support astrology without massive wealth.

The first prop on the first page shook Roland's view of wealth.

"Astraea's star ball is said to be a crystal ball used by the star goddess, 50 gold coins."

This is not an ordinary gold coin, but 50 god-given gold coins!

If we use top maids as a reference, the real world gold coins would be over [-] million.The value of this piece of equipment is more than ten times the peak wealth of the Gracia family.

This piece of equipment is not even an artifact, it is just related to the Star Goddess, and it is said that it can be sold for such a high price.

Roland shrugged and turned the pages calmly. These treasures had nothing to do with him. He turned the inventory to the last page and entered the book area.

Sending books is an elegant thing.

The books that can be sold here are valuable, and they are all originals that contain magical power.

Roland couldn't tell which book was more useful. Fortunately, they were all only copies, so he didn't have to worry about sending them back.

After thinking for a moment, he followed his inner guidance and selected the book with a purple cover.

Purple matches Egilina’s long hair color perfectly, that’s it.

If other astrologers found out that he chooses books based on cover colors, they would probably faint from anger.

Seeing Roland choose the book, Grandet's eyes lit up and he smiled and complimented: "Sir Roland has a good eye. This "Scroll of Insight of Melos" is the most valuable book among the three hundred gold coins. If you take it out If you resell it, even if it’s tens of thousands of gold coins, there will be people willing to buy it.”

Roland smiled and nodded without speaking.

This is the power of the lucky ten.

If you can't make up your mind, leave it to your intuition, and destiny will favor your darling.

Roland didn't wait too long. The profiteer came the next day. After delivering the goods, Roland saw another system prompt appear in front of him.

[The second time you spend all the gold coins, activate the achievement "Pocket is Cleaner than Face", and get [-] gold coins from God]

[You are equipped with a sophisticated level magic equipment energy amplification ring, activate the achievements "Equipment Master - Excellent Level", "Equipment Master - Ordinary Level", "Equipment Expert - Broken Level", and obtain a total of one thousand five hundred gold coins from God. pieces]

[Note: When activating a higher-level achievement, the lower-level achievement is automatically activated]

Good guy, I just spent more than 2000, will I get two thousand back soon?

Roland's mood was particularly sunny.

He understands more and more the rules of the system, which is to do more, and it is better to make mistakes than to do nothing.

Just got the goods, good news comes one after another.

Melanith, who went to Geralt's camp to deliver a message, is back.

She goes to King Geralt's camp with a handwritten letter from the Stargazing Society, telling the king that the war is over.

Unless he wants to start a war with the entire stargazing community, please go home.

She recounted the process of delivering the letter in great detail and said disdainfully: "King Geralt looks majestic like a golden lion, but he is a coward."

"You can't imagine how scared he was when he got the stargazing letter."

"Afraid?" Roland was a little confused. Shouldn't he be angry?

"Yes, it's fear. His body has been shaking, and his face has turned blue and white."

Roland showed a surprised expression.

Melanies has a very high IQ, but her emotional intelligence is slightly lacking.

King Geralt wasn't afraid, he was clearly trembling with anger.

It would be true to say that he was afraid; he was indeed afraid of stargazing parties.

It’s not his fault. Apart from the three empires and the imperial powers of the Light and Dark Gods, who would want to offend the Star Observation Club who can observe destiny?

Thus ended this farcical war.

How King Geralt regains his dignity is his own business, and Roland doesn't care at all.

There are only two major forces left that have not eliminated the state of war, the Forest Brotherhood and the Temple of Light.

The two major forces are a bit far apart. The decision to declare war or peace is a diplomatic matter that must be approved by the headquarters. For such a bloated organization, it will take several months to complete the process. By then, the declaration of war period will be over.

Roland recalled the results of Egilina's deduction on the attitude towards these two forces.

Just push the blame and let it go.

This is the most reasonable result.

From the corner of his eye, Roland caught a glimpse of the sweat beads under Melanis's ears. Knowing that she had been working hard all the way, he quickly took out his handkerchief to help her wipe it.

"Thank you for your hard work, Melanies! We have saved the territory, and victory belongs to us! Prepare a celebration banquet, and we will open the champagne when Miss Egilina comes back!"

Melanies's ear was lightly rubbed by Roland's silk handkerchief, and her whole body felt a little weak.

The ears are a sensitive part of the elves and should not be touched easily, but Roland touched them twice.

She didn't object because she understood her situation.

Whether as a servant or a direct knight, she could not resist Roland.

She knew Roland didn't mean it, and she didn't know what to say.

Just when her delicate body was almost unsteady, Roland also noticed something was wrong. He thoughtfully helped Melanis to the bedside and motioned for her to sit down.

This is the master's big bed. Why do you want me to sit here?
