"I'll take you back to my cabin first, and then I'll see what I do before taking action. I won't disable the mental resonance for the time being. You can communicate with me through this. As for your sister, let her take a good rest, but...she

In fact, she's better than you. At least, she still has her hands." Lu En sighed, took off his robe, wrapped up the two naked girls, with only their heads exposed, and picked up the two girls, one in each hand.

Amidst the surprised looks of a bunch of people, he walked back to his room.

Some people on the road had angry faces on their faces, as if they wanted to get up and scold them, some covered their mouths in surprise and frowned, some smiled with admiration on their faces, some had their eyes shining brightly, as if they had seen someone with the same idea, and some were displeased.

They were very concerned about it, and looked away after just one glance. Some of them were thoughtful, as if they had received some inspiration.

Lu En ignored this and went straight to the room and put them on his bed. They were very tired and fell asleep quickly under the influence of magic.

I ordered the waiters on the airship to cook some meat porridge and deliver it tomorrow morning.

Looking at the two girls who quickly fell asleep, Lu En couldn't help rubbing his temples and thinking about how to deal with them. They were still so young... I'm afraid sending them back to the workshop would harm them. The action was not derogatory, but had a factual meaning.

The two wastes on the street are of no use when they return to the workshop. They cannot work and have to take care of them. Even if the people in the workshop are willing, they may not be willing to continue living like this after a while.

Not to mention that the most likely reason is that he needed someone to take care of him but he had no output, so he was slowly given up and died of depression in bed.

In this way of death, it would be fine if she died herself, but the biggest problem is that her death proves the failure of the workshop. The workshop cannot unite everyone, but the difficulties encountered now are not big enough, but

When faced with a real life and death crisis, everyone will give up.

If Lu En stood up and said no, then someone would point to Anji's body and say, what happened to her?

This is a small thing, but the trust gap it brings will expand to an incredible extent, and may even destroy the foundation of trust among workers.

It's impossible to send him back, but what about staying with him?

It's also inappropriate, not to mention that he doesn't have the energy and time to take care of them, just saying that he runs around every day is already inappropriate. Moreover, the reason why he has never been involved in the affairs of the handicraft workshop and just silently pays attention to the progress of things is because

He knew very well that the workshop must not rely on himself, and must go out step by step on his own, instead of relying on a magician and waiting for him to redeem him.

What's the difference between that and relying on the nobility? They will never get true equality.

Don't think that this kind of persistence is useless and meaningless. There is nothing wrong with helping the workshop, and there is nothing wrong with making money in Magic 9.

But in fact, this is the most important thing. Some things, if you keep mentioning them, it will feel out of place, but if you don't mention them one day, it will be doomed. For example, doctrine and movement.

Of course, there is another option.

That is to deal with it secretly.

If you kill him directly without anyone knowing, then there will be no problem, there will be no drag, and there will be no hidden dangers.

However, it is impossible for Lu En to do this. If he chooses to do this, there will be no need to establish a workshop and spread ideas. That is not his path.

The matter was very troublesome, and he had no good solution, unless he found an alchemist who could use the metalized limbs to directly attach the golem's prosthetic limbs. However, he didn't have that much money with him, and it was impossible to reach out and work with him.

Fang Yao, is it possible that he wants to do something to make quick money?

"Let's talk about it... Let's go to bed first, we will arrive at Apidou soon." Lu En simply didn't want to think about it anymore. At the worst, he would go and make some money. For a magic 9, this is not a big deal. Then he would just leave it alone.

Over there, I don't know how to arrange it, but Bai has the overall plan, so she can definitely handle it.

Speaking of Bai, and Nana, Lu En was thinking about giving Bai some ways to exercise her body. After all, her body is slender and weak, with no visible breasts or butt. She would fall down when she was pushed, and she could lie on the ground for a whole day after falling. However,

, she is still young, or should be said to be still young, and there is still room to look forward to in the future. It would not be a bad thing to exercise.

But on the contrary, because Nana has often done heavy work since she was a child, plus being a thief requires running and sliding doors to pick locks, plus her bloodline, she has been trained to be quite tight. Even though she is short, the places that should be bulging are still very convex.

Lu En once hugged her on the way, and he knew at that time that her figure was well-proportioned and stylish, and she might actually feel good to the touch.

However, Lu En personally prefers Elaine's type. The golden dragon has a strange aroma, just like a sachet. It will emit a good smell when you rub it gently. This smell is not limited to smell, it can even cause odor.

to the influence of some supernatural force.

Of course, that's not the point. What Lu En likes is teasing her occasionally, and then having fun watching her confused look, or watching her lose to the Sandman, but just doesn't want to sleep, so nodding her head frequently is also good.

And to be honest, Jin Long's whole body is very soft and tender, even like a superficial water essence, and she looks like jelly. Judging from her habit of eating but not moving, and sleeping in every day, it is definitely not a problem to say that she is fat.

But on the outside, it doesn't look fat at all, and even a little slender, which is very strange. I suspect that there may be corresponding skills.

Lu En is usually very serious, and there are always a lot of things lingering in his mind, forcing him to rack his brains to think about and do it, so he especially likes this kind of relaxing time.

Thinking about these useless things, he gradually fell into a deep sleep.

When they opened their eyes again, it was already the next morning, and Anji and her sister had not woken up. They were too tired, and... such injuries could not be recovered easily.

The meat porridge was delivered quickly. Lu En put it aside and started to do the business that was interrupted last night.

Taking out a pen and paper, according to the existing intelligence, it is not easy to get involved in the grain trade. There are currently countless grain merchants and related personnel in Apidu, but they can be roughly divided into three forces, one supplier and one channel merchant.

A buyer can participate in a part of the grain trade by participating in any one of them.

One is the imperial merchants, which are grain merchants controlled by the imperial royal family.

The Sushi Plain is the most fertile plain in the empire. It is easy to cultivate, has good weather and is not small in area. The most important thing is that the transportation is convenient and it is easy to transport. This lush plain produces juicy fruits and abundant grains, enriching various industries.

The great nobles and merchants had their pantries and banquet halls, as well as breweries.

In addition, the royal family also owns many royal fields that do not need to go through normal taxes, which is also a major reliance on the profits of the royal merchants. All these agricultural activities require a surprising number of slaves, usually from prisons in various regions.

The prisoners brought out of the prison will not be sentenced to death, but they will not be liberated for life, so they will be dragged here to work.

According to the American judgment, slaves will serve for life until their death. There will be many slave overseers and spies disguised as ordinary slaves to ensure that almost no slaves can escape hard labor.

However, it should be noted that Huangshang belongs to the royal family, not the emperor. The emperor is the highest authority and the only representative of the entire empire. He is supreme and has unparalleled power. Even immortals need to pay homage when they meet.

The royal family is just the largest aristocratic family in the empire. It is not essentially different from other nobles. It just has some additional privileges, such as many tax exemption rights and passage rights.

The advantage of the imperial merchants is that they have a large amount of low-priced and high-quality grain, and they are genuine grain producers.

The second is the Hall of Glow. In this world, almost no commercial activities can exist independently of the Hall of Glow. The Hall of Glow does not have its own food production areas, but they have mastered business channels and hubs. This capital

The beast swallows large amounts of goods, buys and sells them, but never produces anything of its own.

Buying and selling has no actual value. Without production, no value can be created. However, as a capital behemoth with massive funds, they spend money to collect resources and then sell them to people who need them more at higher prices.

Of course, this distribution process is their way of making profits. In Lu En's words, they are middlemen who specialize in making profit from the price difference.

The advantage of the Hall of Glory is that they have a large number of channels and business intelligence, and have a keen business sense. They have spent money to hoard a large amount of food long before this, and bought it from other places, just waiting to be delivered here.

coming.

The third is the new nobles. The so-called new nobles are the heroes who opened up the territory. Some of them were given titles and nobles, officially entered the imperial noble class, and could have a job by the sea.

own territory.

Of course, although it is said that it is officially entered, in fact, there is not a single muddy leg in it. As mentioned before, the aristocratic circle of the empire has not changed for many years, and these are of course no exception. Most of them are retainers of a certain big noble.

This retainer does not refer to ordinary servants, but refers to one family after another. They have served a certain noble family for generations. There are countless people in the entire family. They have masters since they were born. The entire family is a retainer. Generally,

Soon after a newborn baby is born, he will become a servant of a certain young master of the master's family.

Such families have been passed down for more than ten generations and are loyal. Many of them have monsters. In fact, it is normal for a certain tribe of monsters to be loyal to human nobles. For example, the Grand Duke Trela ​​has a hippogriff tribe working for him.

, there are about 150,000 hippogriffs, of which there are about 30,000 level 2 adult hippogriffs, so he has a mighty and combat-savvy hippogriff cavalry regiment, and the level 8 gryphon horse king is his own mount.

It is said that this King of Hippogriffs with Speed ​​8 is so fast that it can easily break through space limitations, achieve the effect of short-distance teleportation, and can also lead people to jump in space, as if traveling through dimensions, temporarily escaping from the real world.

Avoid all harm.

The new nobles are selected from the retainers of these original big nobles. Of course, it does not mean that they become new nobles and break away from the original owners. In fact, they are not even willing to let them break away from the original owners, but they can.

From a retainer to a vassal, his status is higher, and he has truly joined the noble class of the empire.

"... Among them, the best one to join is the new noble, because I am also a monster, and it is a level 9 monster. My skills are still magic 9. The value is inestimable. If I am willing to become a retainer of a big noble, I am afraid I can do it right away.

Becoming a member of the new aristocracy..." Lu En pondered, writing and drawing on paper, and tallying up the corresponding characters and information according to a line chart.

Becoming a retainer is actually not an unacceptable thing. As long as you don't regard yourself as a slave in your heart, you can completely understand it as an employment relationship. Maybe you can become the only new noble in the empire in thousands of years, a pure new one.

The most difficult thing to join is of course the royal family. Don’t even think about it. Unless he gives up his body and keeps his soul to seize a new little royal family, but most of the time he will be killed before he succeeds and interferes with the royal family... If

If you choose to become a retainer of the royal family——

"No..." Lu En shook his head. This is not realistic. Becoming a retainer of the royal family may be more troublesome than imagined.

So the Hall of Glow in the middle, well...

Not very good. The structure of the Hall of Glow is too loose. It is easy to join it, but it is almost impossible to really enter the decision-making level of the grain trade. Unlike a new noble, who can directly intervene in the grain trade, as a seaside

The actual controllers of the new territory will receive a large amount of food from the Hall of Radiance and the Imperial Merchants, and then resell it to the people below.

After all, the seaside is not suitable for farming, and food almost entirely depends on external input. Being a new nobleman who owns territory here will not only get an extra piece of land of his own, which is much better than the Ontario wasteland, but also actually intervene.

There are also many benefits in various types of trade and among noble circles.

The biggest advantage is that, unlike the province of Ontario, a noble with a real title has almost absolute control over his territory. Even the emperor cannot interfere casually, otherwise it will shake the foundation of the entire aristocratic system.

Thinking about this, Lu En stopped the pen and paper, wrote down what was on the paper, then snapped his fingers and lit a fire to burn the paper.

Complete surrender of allegiance to the empire, of course, is superficial. In exchange for a new territory and direct intervention in various affairs of the empire, it is not a loss, and it can even be said to be very profitable.

Then there is only one question. Why should the empire believe that it is sincere? And include itself in the aristocratic system? You know, only the emperor can confer nobility. Will that emperor believe in himself?

Well...this needs to be considered.

Thinking of this, Anji let out a hazy whimper, as if she wanted to turn over in her sleep. Unfortunately, she couldn't turn over at all now. Without her arms and legs, it was very difficult to move.

On the other hand, the sister named Feili was still sleeping deeply, but unfortunately she also had no legs.

Seeing that the two of them were about to wake up, Lu En picked up the meat porridge and walked over.

Although I’m not good at this, I can’t just leave it alone, right?
Chapter completed!
