Chapter 215 Zi Feiyu An Zhiyu's Joy

  The board of directors of Hebdi Ling Mining Company has passed a resolution that Duke will take over 1% of the shares sold by Clarinda.

   Duke, who was notified, immediately began to raise money to buy.

   "I need a professional financial team to manage my assets." When it comes to such a large sum of money, he needs the help of a professional team.

   Can only recruit externally.

  The method of recruitment is very simple, half of them are recruited from the students who study finance, and they are trained as future financial personnel. The other half is supported by various dignitaries, Youshi Clothing Company, Giant of Light Spirit Tool Company, Suktala Mage Tower, Penrose Mage Tower...

  In a short period of time, a financial team of 25 people was formed.

  After signing the contract, he began to serve Duke.

   "You have to be divided into three groups. One group of people will connect with the financial team of my teacher, Lord Suktara, and borrow money from her; one group of people will connect with Runwanjia Spiritual Tool Factory, which costs me a lot of patent infringement fees; one group of people will connect with Hibidi Ling Mining Company and buy shares."

   "Understood, my lord."

   "Then let's do it!"

  Duke opened up his small treasury to the financial team.

  He used to raise funds to cash out, and saved about 60,000 gold dragons in deposits. After leaving 10,000 gold dragons as daily expenses, the remaining 50,000 gold dragons were handed over to the financial team.

   "Professional matters are left to professionals. As arcanists, we don't need to worry about everything." Suktara pointed out.

   "Teacher, it's the first time to operate such a large amount of money, so I have to be more cautious."

   "What is the price of 1% of the shares of Hibiscus?"

   "1.42 million golden dragons." Duke said an astronomical figure.

   "Fortunately, it looks like a lot, but it's actually not that much to you. The giant of light must be valued at two to three million golden dragons, right?"

   "I haven't done a detailed calculation, but thanks to the promotion of strong light technology, the entire Fengxi field is basically the market of the giant of light, and the valuation of three million should not be a problem." Duke calculated, "But I only have 30% of the shares."

  30% of 3 million, about 900,000 golden dragons.

   "Don't forget that you still have the patents for strong light technology and portable light technology. Companies in eleven fields have to pay you patent fees. It is not a problem to earn hundreds of thousands a year." Suktala said with a smile, "You have become a rich man."

  Duke smiled and said, "Patent fees flow slowly, and they can't be collected now."

   "Now the Holy City Bodhisattva Tower helps you to promote the strong light technology, and it won't be long before patent fees will continue to enter your pocket."

   "By the way, teacher, I can only provide 170,000 for the 1.42 million Jinlong share fee, and I need you to support 1.25 million Jinlong. With such a large cash flow, will you be under pressure?"

   "What pressure can I have? My mage tower can't be taken out, and I still have friends, so I can get it together by borrowing it. In short, don't care about these, leave it to professionals, and you can just learn from the teacher with peace of mind."

   "Okay." Duke replied.

  Suktara smiled with satisfaction: "That's right."

   For her, nothing is important now, even if the mage tower is down, it doesn't matter. The only thing worth paying attention to is teaching Duke.

  One teaching and one learning, fun and harmonious.

   Waiting until eleven o'clock in the evening, the housekeeper Su Li came to inform that it was time to end the teaching time.

  Duke was about to leave, and Suktara said before parting: "Teaching will be normal tomorrow. In addition, we will be able to teach the direction of making arcane tools in another month. I am going to go to other places to take on a job of designing and building arcane tools to help you master the mysteries."

  Suktara is an alchemist. Although his research direction is ring replication materials, he is skilled in arcane casting.

  Many arcanists will seek the help of Suktala when casting arcane weapons.

   "Teacher, I have a classmate Sanfis. You met him at the birthday party." Duke said, "He seems to be preparing to cast an arcane weapon, and he asked me to tell you before that he would like to ask you to help me with a discount on the casting fee."

   "Oh, Sanfis is going to forge arcane weapons, this is a good opportunity to come to your door." Suktara said happily.

   "Then I go back and contact him?"

  Suktara waved his hand: "Well, tell him, as long as the materials are prepared, the teacher will waive the design fee and casting fee."

"good!"

   Duke leaves.

  In fact, not only is Sanfis planning to cast an arcane weapon, but he himself plans to cast an arcane weapon.

   On Xiaoyi's schedule, in half a month, the third Arcane Wonder-the Healing Arcane Wonder will be completed.

   And there are still many redundancies that can be used to build new arcane wonders or arcane artifacts.

  Except for a ring of sand eagles that do not take up space, he can build four arcane wonders or arcane weapons. I have to say that the talent of the spiritual core is really good.

   is not unique in heaven and earth, but it is better than most arcanists.

   After all, some 1st-ring arcane mages may only be able to build two arcane wonders on the orbit, and even some extreme ones can only build one arcane wonder.

  Defensive arcanes have arcane shields, camouflage arcanes have illusions, and healing arcanes have healing.

   Attack arcane, replaced by a ring of sand eagles, no need to build.

  So Duke no longer needs to build a fourth arcane wonder. After all, there are not many truly excellent arcane arts at the 1st ring level.

   Still tailor-made, it is more valuable to design an arcane weapon.

   It's just that Duke already has a ring of sand eagles on the surface, which is said to be a relic inherited from the ancestors of the arcane masters, so he naturally wants to occupy a position.

  If another arcane weapon is cast, it may attract unnecessary attention.

   After all, no matter how bad the mind of a level 1 arcane mage is, he won’t be able to forge two arcane weapons to take up space—arcane weapons cannot be cast instantly, they are just a piece of equipment that is carried with him.

   "Help Sanfis cast an arcane weapon, learn all the techniques in the process, then Xiaoyi and I will cast an arcane weapon by ourselves!"

  He already had a plan in mind.

   Without Xiaoyi, I would never dare to design and cast arcane weapons indiscriminately, but with Xiaoyi's help, everything is possible.

  At noon the next day, he took the time to go to the Scott Mage Tower and found Sanfis who was performing an operation on a patient.

  The owner of the mage tower, the third-ring arcane mage Scott Yihu, is not only a life scholar, but also the chairman of Shenjiao Hospital. The hospital was built in the castle of the mage tower, so that Scott could treat patients anytime and anywhere.

   "Duke, why are you here?" Sanfis took off his white coat and led Duke into his office.

   "Come and see, how is your medical study going?"

   "It's okay, at least it has more experience than card making, and it's faster to get started." Sanfis was much calmer than before, "It's just that my heart is always heavy. Spirituality nourishes all things, but spirituality is not omnipotent, and even arcanists can't do anything about some diseases."

   “It’s comforting to see you empathize with ordinary people.”

  Shanfis rolled his eyes: "Why can't I empathize with ordinary people, I was born as an ordinary person, oh yes, and, don't talk to me like an old man, why are you very relieved, as if I am a generation younger than you."

   "But I am really relieved... and I am full of admiration for His Excellency Scott Maverick. There are not many arcane masters who are willing to develop medicine for ordinary people."

   "You might as well admire me. I am the one who sincerely studies medicine and treats ordinary people. As for my mentor..." Sanfis approached Duke and whispered, "I think according to the current research direction of the Mage Tower, it won't be long before the mentor will be removed from the Faling Tower."

  Duke was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

  Shanfis said in a godlike manner: "Did you know that my mentor's favorite thing to do is to dissect corpses. He wants to find the location of the Linghai, Blood Sea and Qihai. He thinks that if he finds the location, it will be easy to open the three seas!"

   "No way..."

   "Well, in short, I plan to leave the Mage Tower once the three-year training period is over, and open a hospital by myself to do research on basic diseases of ordinary people."

  He spread his hands helplessly, and added: "I don't want to wander on the edge of taboo experiments, I haven't enjoyed enough of the good life!"

   "Your plan is right, don't take risks." Duke replied, "Your Excellency Scott has an accident, and Lord Stephen Maverick is covering him up. Even if Faling Tower removes him, it will not prevent him from living well. Common people like you and me are different."

   "Of course I understand."

  Sanfis was evasive, but he was not stupid at all, so he changed the topic directly: "Duke, is it because of my origin that my fate is so rough?"

  Duke has a question mark on his face, because he is unknown.

  Sanfis continued: "You said, it's fine for noble beauties like Kiria Raging Wave and Joanna Lynx to ignore me, but how can uglier female arcane mages ignore me? Is it true that I can't catch up with a female arcane mage?"

   "Um, I can't answer this question, I'm also single." Duke didn't tell the truth.

  Because the truth is a bit shocking, Sanfis looks ordinary, comes from an ordinary background, and has even more ordinary talents. It is only natural that there is no female arcanist.

  Women who can be promoted to Arcane Mage cannot be coaxed by a clever mouth and a few sweet words.

   "Although you are single, there are many female arcane mages around you!" Sanfis's face was full of envy and jealousy, "Kilia Rage only smiles at you, and Joanna Bobcat even circles around you. Why... Forget it, I think I can accept all of these because you won the title of scholar at the age of eighteen."

   "Okay, Sanfis, let's stop talking nonsense, let's talk about something serious."

   "Ah, isn't getting out of the singles considered a serious matter?" Sanfis was surprised, "The top priority in my life right now is getting out of the singles!"

"…Calculate."

   "That's right. Boys should marry when they are colleges and girls should marry when they are colleges. Duke doesn't think we are still young, but time flies so fast, and we will get old after a while."

   "Yes, in another seventy or eighty years, we will be old."

   After chatting a lot of nonsense, Duke finally brought the topic back on track: "Sanfis, didn't you say that you would ask my teacher to help you forge arcane weapons?"

   "Yes." Sanfis nodded, "I'm raising money. Before the Giant of Light raised money, I lent all my small treasury to you. Now I don't have much money on hand."

   "Can the materials be assembled?"

   "Well, the main materials, especially the spiritual gold, I have already prepared, that is, the key spiritual materials that may be added to the design plan, I am afraid I will not be able to buy them for a while." Sanfis said, he is just a student.

  Being promoted to Arcane Mage a few years earlier than Duke, he has been going around in the Mage Tower, and has not yet finished his training.

  So I didn't save many golden dragons.

   "It's okay, just my teacher came up with an opportunity." Duke said, "The teacher planned to pick up a job from another place, and he happened to take me to help. It was a teaching for me. I said that you want to cast arcane weapons. The teacher sees that I don't charge for my face, as long as you prepare the materials yourself."

   "Really, that's great!" Shan Feisi said pleasantly, "This time, I can save tens of thousands of gold dragons!"

  The material cost of a 1-ring arcane weapon is only tens of thousands of gold dragons, and a cheaper 10,000 gold dragons can be made up.

  The main reason is that the design fee and casting fee are relatively expensive.

   "That's it. After you get the materials together, go to the Suktara Mage Tower if you have time, and talk about the idea of ​​the arcane weapon."

"OK!"

  …

   "Duke."

   "What's the matter, Kylia?" Duke received Kylia Nutao who knocked on the door in his office, "You rarely come to my office as a guest."

   "I have just completed the reorganization of the exclusive meditation method, and I have spent all my time practicing, so I do have little communication with you."

   "Has the exclusive meditation method been reorganized? This is a good thing."

   "It's far worse than your performance at that time." Kiria was a little disappointed in her heart. The more she compared, the more she felt that she was far behind Duke.

  The time it took for Duke to reorganize the meditation method, the speed at which he comprehended the guardian and mysterious vine, and the number of visions in the meditation method are all impressive.

   She is determined to catch up.

   It’s just powerless. So far, she still visits the Union Tower from time to time, observing the 3-ring tree king-the mysterious vine from bottom to top, and from top to bottom. She wants to comprehend the special vision of the guardian and mysterious vine, but unfortunately she can’t.

  In the entire Heijiaohe land, the number of arcanists who have comprehended the vine of protection and mystery can be counted on one hand.

   "You don't need to compare with me, I'm just luckier." Duke smiled and pushed everything to luck.

  Although the tone was modest, the words he said made people even more depressed.

   "Spiritual favor, maybe this is spiritual favor." Kylia adjusted her mood and smiled slightly, "I came to invite you to visit the Keyston Mage Tower. My grandfather wants to meet the new shareholders of Hebedi."

  Duke was surprised: "Master Keyston wants to see me?"

   "That's right, the most popular topic of discussion among arcanists in Shenjiao City during this time is you."

   "I'm sincerely afraid." Duke nodded and replied, "What time is it, so I can go back and prepare."

"Tomorrow evening."

"good."

   "Then I won't bother you." Kylia stood up.

   "Walk slowly." Duke stood up.

  Watching Kylia leave the office, the charming figure faintly visible under the robe of the arcanist always made him unable to help but think a lot.

  After returning home in the evening, he told Suktara the news that he was going to have a banquet at the Keyston Mage Tower.

  Suktara laughed and said: "Lord Keyston is the chairman of Hebedi, meeting the new shareholders is the meaning of the question, you don't have to be nervous."

   "I'm not nervous," Duke replied.

   "Don't you have the feeling of seeing your parents?"

   "Uh, no."

   "Really?" Suktara teased, "My fair lady is so cute, Kylia Nutao is a flower in Shenjiao City, don't you have any special ideas?"

  If Duke was a normal young man, maybe he would blush.

   But he is not.

  Just replied calmly: "Teacher, it's not normal to say that you don't have any ideas. Of course, love between men and women is what I love. But I am still young, and practice and study are the most important. As for the relationship between men and women, let it be."

   "I understand your thoughts, and I support you in putting your career at the top of the list." Suktara sighed as he spoke, "But the teacher, as someone who has experienced it, will give you a piece of advice. Love while you are young."

  Duke was silent.

  Suktara continued: "Don't always think that the arcanist has a long lifespan, so you can wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, maybe the end is nothing."

  This point of view is quite consistent with Sanfis's concept.

  Duke accepted it humbly: "I am not a person who is emotionally ambiguous. Teacher, don't worry, letting things take its course is not timid. I will never be ambiguous when it is time to make a move."

   "That's right!" Sukta Lara praised, "This is a good student of the teacher. A flower in Shenjiao City should be picked by my student and left in Shenjiao City. Don't let it be picked up by an arcanist from another city. You must know that the Nutao family likes marriage the most."

  The fiefdom of the Nutao family is located in Shenjiao City. They were one of the first big nobles to build Shenjiao City. Later, the city expanded, and the fiefdom was donated for free.

  After all, compared to the income from the fiefdom, how can it be as fast as participating in the operation of the entire Shenjiao City to make money.

  As the top aristocrats in Shenjiao City, the Nutao family often marry with nobles from other cities.

  捯獯獯定.

  After get off work the next day, Duke and Kylia took the same shuttle and went to Keystone Mage Tower as a guest.

  Kiston Master Tower is the tallest building in Shenjiao City, with a height of three to four hundred meters, and it is still built on a mountain top, often surrounded by clouds and mist.

  The castle around the Mage Tower stretches even further, covering the entire hill.

   It seems that this is no longer a mountain, but a mountain composed of castles. At least a hundred thousand people live in the castle mountain.

  After the shuttle drove into the castle, it circled around and flew to the mage's tower. A butler was already waiting for Kylia and Duke at the door.

   "Miss Kylia, Your Excellency Duke, the master hasn't come back yet, so please tell Miss Kylia that you will show Your Excellency Duke a tour of the Mage Tower first."

   "Okay." Kilia nodded.

  Duke followed Kiria and visited this magnificent mage tower. Compared with the grandeur of the outside, the interior is not much different from other mage towers.

   Tall pillars, thick walls, magnificent decoration.

   But look carefully.

   Can see a little difference, Duke touched the wall, and suddenly asked: "Kilia, this mage tower has the breath of living things, is it the tower spirit?"

  Xiaoyi hangs up the phone and breathes, and with the help of the ubiquitous spiritual plants in the tower, he has already outlined all the areas, generated a map, and played it on the vindictive holographic screen. This allows Duke to intuitively see the changes in the Force of Nature.

  In the entire mage tower, there is a special force of nature, which has been staring at him since he first entered it.

  As Duke went upstairs, the force of nature changed position and continued to stare at him.

  After carefully analyzing the feedback of the breathing method, Xiaoyi determined that this force of nature was emanating from the wall of the mage tower.

   "Can you feel Grandpa Ironhead?" Kylia asked in surprise.

   "Grandpa Iron Head?"

  Under Duke’s curious gaze, Kylia clapped her hands towards the wall, and then shouted loudly: “Grandpa Iron Head, Kylia, please come out and meet me!”

   Immediately the two waited together.

   But after waiting for a while, there was no movement.

  Duke couldn't help looking at Kylia, and it was displayed on the vindictive holographic screen that the natural force staring at him was swimming in the nearby wall, but he didn't intend to show up.

  Kiliya smiled awkwardly: "It seems that Grandpa Iron Head doesn't plan to come out to meet."

   "Grandpa Iron Head is Tower Spirit, an ancient spirit?"

"Yes."

   "What does it look like?"

   "Grandpa Ironhead is a fish. Do you know the phantom in ancient times? The armored fish in it may be the species of Grandpa Ironhead." Kiriya said, "Grandpa Ironhead became a tower spirit longer than my grandfather. If he doesn't want to come out, no one can call out."

   "The armored fish is the armored fish in the sea of ​​fish, right?"

"Yes."

  The phantoms of ancient times include various periods of ancient times, including the ocean of insects, the sea of ​​fish, the forest of ferns, the source of frogs, the forest of dinosaurs, the sky of birds, etc., like the process of life development, which was filmed by the spiritual spring.

  Play it every now and then.

   "Then you know about the Sea of ​​Fish, your ancestors must have experienced the Sea of ​​Fish, right?" Duke began to inquire about the news.

  He experienced the Ocean of Insects in the Emerald Sea Valley, and after returning, he paid close attention to it, wanting to see what the arcanists thought about it.

   It turned out that when the Ocean of Insects broke out, he might have been the only Arcane Mage in the entire Cuihai Valley.

   In other words, he was the only one who saw the outbreak of the Ocean of Worms.

  So the exploration of the Ocean of Insects will be nothing. At most, in his spare time, he will ask Xiaoyi to replay the saved images in the spiritual sea, and then savor them carefully.

   "I really don't know about this. I have known the existence of Grandpa Iron Head since I was a child, but I haven't carefully explored the origin of Grandpa Iron Head." Ji Liya shook her head.

  It seems that many people see the sun every day, but never think about what the sun is.

  Duke was about to continue asking.

  Suddenly there was a loud voice: "A group of ghosts hundreds of millions of years ago were trapped in the safe of the spiritual spring. When the time came and the lock of the safe was opened, they started to spin, repeating the memories of their lives, and spinning in time and space hundreds of millions of years later."

   It's Keyston Rage, walking up the stairs.

  He waved slightly at the wall, and the next moment, a huge transparent fish made of fluorescent light suddenly drilled out from the wall.

  The big fish was as silent as a ghost, and it quickly swam up to Duke and Kylia. Its body was outlined by light, and it could be clearly seen that its entire head was wrapped in bone armor. There were no fish scales on its body, but fine bone armor.

  A pair of eyeballs on the head of the fish gleamed with dark blue light, looking at Duke deeply.

   Then, taking advantage of Duke's stunned moment, he slammed into Duke.

   Before Duke could react, the seven or eight-meter-long fish passed through his body and Kylia's body and crashed into another wall.

   Then it drilled out from the far wall, swam flexibly, and finally hovered behind Keyston.

  Kiston had already stepped forward, his blond hair like a lion king was exactly the same as Kylia's golden wavy hair.

  Only the snow-white beard can tell that he is very old.

  "A group of sad fish, don't know that they are just trapped memories of ancient times, pitiful but dangerous, if you swim with them, you may end up trapped in a spiritual spring and become ghosts like them, or you may be taken hundreds of millions of years ago, lonely to death."

  Kiston just finished speaking.

  The big fish hovering behind him, that is, Grandpa Tietou, suddenly opened his mouth and made a buzzing sound: "Zifeiyu, An Zhiyu's joy!"

  "Old iron man, I don't know if the fish will be happy soon, but I know it will definitely not be happy to be a ghost. You'd better go and stay inside the wall honestly. Don't try to confuse me all day long. Join your ranks and become a ghost."

   "You are not a fish, you know the joy of fish!" Grandpa Tietou swung his armored fish head, as if he was too lazy to argue with Keyston.

   Immediately, he burrowed into the wall and disappeared.

  Duke found the opportunity at this time, bowed and saluted: "Lord Keyston."

   "There is no need to be too polite." Kiston squinted his eyes at Duke, and said cheerfully, "The youngest scholar in the field of wind breath, just judging by his appearance, he is indeed quite good, much more pleasing to the eye than those crooked arcanists."

   "Your Excellency is absurd."

   "What are you being polite to? You can tell if you are handsome or not with your eyes. When I was young, whoever dared to say that I was not handsome, I would give him two big slaps when I went up. I hate dishonest people the most." Keyston seemed to be joking.

   But it feels very serious.

  Duke smiled lightly, and replied: "I think so, we should respect different aesthetics and show more love to the blind."

   "My boy, I really think you have no confidence!" Keyston laughed, "Let's go, little Duke, little Kiria, and take you to Genting Garden to watch the sunset."

   Looking for tickets~
