Release that Witch Chapter 512: New and old friends


Kingdom Capital is undoubtedly a huge treasure house.

Although it is very backward as a city, those seemingly magnificent buildings are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Roland, but it is still the brightest pearl in Kingdom of Greycastle.

In terms of population, the number of noble it has far exceeds any noble that has lost fief in any home in other cities. The first thing that comes to mind is to come to Kingdom Capital to find opportunities. Coupled with the royal family ’s landless Knight and jazz, this proportion is further increased. For example, among the residents of the inner city, the proportion of noble is close to 20%, and they usually have primary education and can read and write. For Roland, It is a reserve officer worth training. After all, without land and family business, you will not be too inconsistent with the new policy, and you have good knowledge to accept new things faster than ordinary civilians.

In the industry, Kingdom Capital is also a big one. In addition to the commerce and artisan guilds, it also has the largest alchemist association and a unique astrologer association. These talents are the targets of Roland 觊觎, and the summoning of Barov and Cam Schuire is also to accommodate them as much as possible.

Finally, wealth ... all kinds of materials in the palace are enough to meet ten Duke Ryan, gold royal, jewellery, gold and silver crafts, and several warehouses, plus other heavy ministers who collapsed together with Timothy, the final statistics will be inevitable. It would be an amazing number. If all their properties are confiscated, Neverwinter City will have nothing to worry about in the next two to three years. However, Roland does not intend to move them all. It takes too much time to say that taking over Kingdom Capital also requires a large amount of overhead to maintain stability. Money accumulates in the basement and spills needlessly. It is only reasonable to let it flow at its own value.

If you can, Roland hopes to spend the first half of the year to digest these incomes well, but the time is not waiting. Compared with Kingdom Capital far away, Fallen Dragon Ridge and Extreme Southern Region that can be integrated with Western Region are more important.

A short time after Iron Axe left, an personal guard reported, "Your Majesty, there is a businessman outside the palace who claims to be Margery wants to see you."

Roland's eyes suddenly flashed, "Bring her to see me."

When the business woman walked into the hall, he stood up from Throne with a smile, and stepped forward, "We are meeting again."

"I didn't expect to meet again at the Greycastle Palace," Margery pulled up the skirt and bowed his knees. "You always surprise me, Your Highness Roland ... No, I should call you Your Majesty now. "

"Anyway, I haven't held the foundation ceremony anyway, I'm not really King," Roland waved.

"You are not in a hurry, it is indeed the king's style." Margery concealed, "It seems that Kingdom Capital will be full of business opportunities in the future. For the sake of the old man, you can take more care of me. "

"Of course, if you don't come to me, I will go to you," he laughed. "You may not know that Border Town and Longsong Stronghold merged into one big city, and more steam engine factories were opened. A few production lines, the output can almost triple. There will be many new products in the future. I guarantee that they are all unique and good things in Four Great Kingdoms.

"I have fully seen your creativity, and we can slowly discuss them in detail," Margery nodded, "but I am not here for this, and I have other things to ask for."

"Oh?" Roland said with interest, "Talk about it."

"Can ... talk somewhere else?" She glanced around and asked in a low voice.

With the financial resources of the Chamber of Commerce, we can't solve it. We have to avoid people's eyes. Is there really any big trouble for the other party? The prince thought for a while, "Go to my study."

...

The study room on the top floor of the crown high tower originally belonged to Wimbledon III, and it was also the place that Fourth Prince most yearned for as a child. Only here can he see his dumb father. Roland picked this place because the terrain is high enough, it is not easy to set up a secret channel, and there is only one ring stone step leading to the tower top, easily guarded, hard to attack.

"Can you speak now?"

Only he and Margery are left in the room, as well as Nightingale with hidden body.

"Sorry, Your Majesty, I am entrusted to tell you alone ..." She bowed solemnly, "Master Thunder hopes to meet you."

"Thunder?" Roland was surprised. "Is that the most outstanding explorer in the fjord? Isn't he ... already buried in a shipwreck?"

"Although the real explorer believes in Three Gods, it will not easily fall into the embrace of Three Gods," Margery shook his head. "He does not want to reveal his whereabouts, especially not to let Lightning know, which is why I secretly tell you . Thunder originally intended to contact you through His Highness Tilly, but did not expect that you would occupy Kingdom Capital so quickly, so he temporarily changed his decision. "Business woman paused," He also said that an incredible sight west of the Hidden Shadow archipelago was likely, It's related to ruins hundreds of years ago, you will definitely be interested to learn. "

"Wait ... is he in Kingdom Capital now?"

"Yes, he just arrived yesterday and made this decision after meeting me."

"You don't seem to be surprised at all by his death and resurrection," said Roland strangely. "You already knew this?"

Margery nodded.

"So, the first time you went to Border Town merchants was not because of the personal guard I sent, but to find Lightning?"

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you at the beginning," she stroked her chest. "Lightning wears magic stone. Adult Thunder confirmed her position by this method. He sent me to just want to confirm whether she is safe. , After learning that Lightning lived in your territory, he decided to hide his news and keep his daughter away from the road of explorer.

So that's it, Roland immediately understood everything at the time. He did not inquire about the death of Thunder in detail at the time, and the other party ’s answer was all true in a sense. Therefore, Nightingale did not find any peculiarities in it, but just concluded her There is no hostility to witch. It turns out that this "coincidence" was for a reason. If there is no Lightning, I am afraid that my steam engine trade will not open up business so quickly.

"Now Kingdom Capital is still in the whirlpool, so I'm unlikely to leave the palace," Roland considered a moment answer said, "If Thunder wants to see me, you can bring him to the palace, I can promise No information about him will be disclosed to Lightning. "

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty," Margery showed gratitude, and bowed again, "I will tell him the answer as soon as possible."

Let attendants send away the business woman, Roland just returned to the main hall, and heard personal guard report, "Your Majesty, a noble came from the palace, claiming to be your old friend, noisy to rush into the palace."

This news surprised him slightly. The little noble not affected by the spring offensive will come to inquire about situation sooner or later, but he did not expect it to be so fast. Theoretically, they should wait for a while to watch the wind direction. Now that Timothy has not asked, they should not take the initiative at this moment ... and they are originally a prince, how could they be so familiar with a young noble? "What's his name?"

"Sir Hugo, Your Majesty." (To be continued.)
