City of Sin: One six three accident/surprise on
However, after the battle of life and death, Richard's Mana has finally entered Level 11. According to the standard of Faro Plane, it has already been called Grand Mage. In addition to him, the two Ogre also both advanced. The newly acquired special unit Phaser has only Level 1, but has all the abilities of stealth, flash attack and assassination. The left-hand blade is one of the Sinclair double knives, so the combat power is at least equivalent to the elite Warrior of five Level 6. If she is successfully assassinated, then professionals below Level 10 may be seriously injured.
Anyway, after removing the enemy of Sinclair and reaching a preliminary cooperation intention with Direwolf Duke, Richard felt that the sky above him was suddenly bright.
Richard did not leave in a hurry, but stayed at Duke ’s Castle for a few more days, borrowed the chief mage ’s laboratory, and selected ten of the most rugged transformations of Rune recovered from Bearguard Knight. The increase in strength was Between 10% and 15%, the active type Rune inspired by Magic Crystal is required, which is essentially different from the passive Rune for the Duke.
This batch of Rune was sold to the Duke by Richard, and the overall price was set at 200,000 gold coins, of which Richard received gold and jewelry equivalent to 50,000 gold coins, and the rest were armed with magic materials and capable of 200 people. Replaced by knight's equipment.
How to use these batches of Rune in the hands of the Duke, whether it is distributed to their people or sold for profit, Richard will not matter.
The price of Rune, Richard, was carefully considered. The price sold at Bloodstained Lands was 25,000 gold coins per unit, although Richard knew that the two Rune could get twice the profit if they changed hands. But the key is that this price is affordable for any Level 15 Combatant and Level 11 Grand Mage, and does not need to be too laborious. The batch of Rune transferred to the Duke from Richard has a slight difference in increase, but it has made up for other qualities, such as the prolonged duration after excitation, or the slowdown of the consumption of Magic Crystal, or the extended life of Rune, etc. Wait.
Any Rune will be lost with Magic Array curing Mana, but it will fail within one year and three years. Norland's magic technology has already solved the problem of Magic Array curing Mana loss. But hundreds of years ago, when Magic Rune was just beginning to develop rapidly, this was a difficult problem in front of each Runemaster. Only those genius works of Saint Runemaster that pass by like a comet can naturally overcome this problem, thus making their works last for a long time. Therefore, although there are not many ancient Rune passed down in history, they are all fine works.
This is also the intention of Richard to decide to use the Duke as a stable mass distribution channel after careful consideration. On the one hand, continue to hide Rune's own information as much as possible, while giving the Duke the corresponding benefits, and increasing the weight for the stability of alliance. On the other hand, making these Rune, which are completely inferior under the Norland standard, will not consume too much time and energy for him, and two or three frames can be produced in one day. The cost of materials consumed is reduced to more than a thousand gold coins. As long as there are stable channels to sell, then wealth will roll in.
Gold coins are just a symbol, but stable channels will turn these symbols into magic materials, equipment, war horses, and even everything that can be used for public trading as soon as possible. So gold coins are power.
After completing the initial transaction, Richard set off with his entourage and went to his territory. With 20,000 gold coins, he ordered a group of construction craftsmen and some metal materials not produced in the nearby area from the Duke, preparing to build a new castle on the territory.
The castle is chosen at the confluence of mountains and rivers, not far from the original Bran village and close to Bloodstained Lands. This position can block horse bandits from Bloodstained Lands and protect the fertile land on both sides of the river. As long as the horse bandits and Demon Beast are blocked, no one will worry that no one will open up these natural fields.
Faro Plane has a pleasant climate and much more vitality than Norland Continent, so it is rich in products and only requires two-thirds of the land to produce more food than Norland. Therefore, there is little famine in the Faro Plane, and the majority of the population loss is due to the endless war. But after humans gradually occupied the main body of the continent and increasingly oppressed aliens to the edge of the continent, even the big islands in the sea, the number of people lost due to wars gradually decreased. But even so, as long as a large amount of idle wasteland one by one is reclaimed, then there may be no famine for hundreds of years.
With food, there is population, there is labor, wine and meat, and the luxury of high society. This is the basic truth known by Richard.
In the vicinity of the place where the castle is scheduled to be built, the Shamin and Barbarian Warriors who arrived earlier have opened a barely accessible road and built a simple barracks and horse barn. A surviving Sealed Knight is negotiating with the new Fontaine Baron and wants to hire workers and purchase basic construction materials such as stone wood. This material is cheap, bulky and bulky, and the amount is still very large, so it can only be purchased locally.
When Richard arrived at the castle site, accident/surprise saw that it was just an outline of a site. There were no more employees than the one hundred people in the nearby village. These people are Richard's own citizen, according to the current territory, it is already the largest number that can be recruited. Just relying on these more than 100 people, how long will it take to build a castle?
And Richard walked around the site and found that most of these people are dealing with stone and wood. The stone was mined directly from the nearby mountain. Naturally powerful Barbarian breaks the stone from the mountain, and then cut and polished it by ordinary citizen. The wood is also a log produced in the nearby forest, which is made through a complete set of processes such as pruning and peeling, drying and cutting boards.
This is the Sealed Knight's original experience in building castles, so he has to deal with the skills of stonemason and carpenter in order to organize such a pre-processing process. Ordinary citizen can't live with this technology.
Not only the lack of labor, if even the stone and wood have to be made from scratch, then the construction period of this castle may be delayed to three to five years.
The current Richard is not the kind of country jazz that can only rely on the income of the territory to slowly accumulate wealth. He has a lot of gold coins in his hand. These gold coins can be turned into materials and labor to build a small castle of small scale. It's not difficult. The problem is that he has given Sealed Knight five thousand gold coins, but he has not seen the corresponding labor and building materials.
After only one turn, Richard's face was already somewhat gloomy, and people were immediately asked to call Sealed Knight, who was responsible for building the castle, and asked what was going on.
This is one of the only two Sealed Knights left by Richard. They are in their early thirties, and their strength and age match very well. In other words, there is not much room for further progress in the future. They also fought a lot of battles following Richard, and were familiar with the management of the nobility, so it was appropriate for them to build the castle for them.
