Lord Chronicle

Chapter 135 The Workshop Opens

When the defense team arrived after hearing the news for the second time, what they saw almost made them unable to believe their eyes.It's not long since I left, why did the lord's house get blown up?

Under questioning, Sol still insisted that it was an accident, but Kress had no choice but to direct the garrison to start cleaning up the scene, while muttering in his heart: What are the lord and these women doing to make such an earth-shattering event? of.

Sol naturally didn't know that Kress was making some kind of bad guesses in his heart. At this time, they were gathering in a corner of the courtyard. Naturally, in order to hide the eyes and ears, Hitches had already been untied.

Glancing at the busy guards in the yard, Jessica asked, "I'm curious about one thing. Since you like magic so much, why don't you stay in the Wizards Guild? Isn't the conditions there better?"

Hitches shook his head: "How is this possible, they will never allow me to do this."

Thinking about it carefully, Saul understood what he meant.Indeed, it is impossible for the Magician Guild to allow its chief alchemist to stop doing business and go to study Shilaozi's magic.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help saying: "Then why did you choose Lovell? Don't those reclusive magicians stay in unknown mountains and do their own research."

Hitches glared at him like an idiot: "Don't be stupid, that's just random guessing by ordinary people. Magic research requires a lot of money, let alone most magicians are not very rich, even if they are rich, they must hide in the mountains. Where do you get the research materials? So finding a territory that is willing to fund yourself is the best way."

Saul couldn't help being speechless, willing to help?I think you have been defrauding me of my money.Lao Tzu is like a fool, the most ridiculous thing is that he still has the dream of owning a magician.

After a pause, Hitches said again: "As for why you chose Lovell, in fact, I have a little friendship with your father. I originally planned to join him this time, but Gary is dead, so only..."

"The old idiot is dead, so just lie to the little idiot, right?" Saul sneered.

At the same time, he is also very strange, my cheap dad has a lot of friends.In addition to Albert, the first magician in Dinar, he actually knew the chief alchemist of the Magicians Guild.

Jessica couldn't help asking, "Do you know the old lord?"

Hitches proudly said: "Of course, back then we could..." When he said this, he seemed to recall something from the past, his face darkened slightly, and he didn't say any more.

Jessica was about to ask again, when Mary patted Hitches on the back: "Forget about your past, when are you going to go back with me?"

"Go back? Who said I want to go back?" Hitches was stunned.

Mary was also startled: "Are you going to stay here forever?"

Hitches took it for granted: "From the day I left the guild, I was determined to dedicate the rest of my life to great magic. Besides, there are beautiful mountains and rivers here, there are many monsters, and there is a fool who is willing to help me no matter how much money... Uh, no, Lord , why should I go back?"

Thor: Hey, don't think you changed your words quickly, I didn't hear what you said just now...

Mary was furious: "What a gift! You're too old, don't dream, okay? You are the greatest alchemist in the mainland, not a magician."

Hitches immediately countered: "If a person has no dreams, what is the difference from a salted fish? This kind of thing has nothing to do with age."

"You..." Mary looked at him with a look of hatred, and then said madly, "I, why do I have such a father!!"

She turned around angrily: "Look at you now, what is better about this broken territory than the guild?"

"At least I'm happy now, which I can't get in the guild." Hitches raised his head.

Mary rubbed the bridge of her nose helplessly: "Are you going back?"

"Don't go!" Hitches choked his neck like a child having a temper tantrum.

The impatience came up again, and Mary grabbed Hitches by the collar: "Don't be self-willed, don't you know that many people are looking for you? Now the guild's alchemy department can't function normally at all, come back with me Bar."

"If you must let me go, you should step over the Lord Lord's body first." Hitches pointed at Sol firmly.

"Really?" Mary turned her head with a murderous expression.

Saul: "None of my business..."

As he said that, he coughed dryly: "Ahem, I didn't intend to disturb the two of you at first. But, you have made my room like this, you must have an explanation, right?"

As if remembering what Saul was talking about, Mary frowned and looked around: "I will be responsible for what I did, tell me, how do you want to pay for it?"

Has character, which I like.Sol grinned and said, "Does that matter? Of course I lost money. In addition to the house repair fee, there is also the greening fee in my yard. In addition, I am also a Marquis. I was frightened and frightened tonight, and the mental loss fee is natural." And it’s indispensable.”

Mary didn't even ask how much it was, and said directly: "I don't have any money. All my savings are used to buy materials for making traps, so that I can catch this bastard dad."

Hitches also quickly said, "I don't have any money either."

"You..." Sol felt dizzy for a while, aren't your father and daughter specially sent by some enemy to play with me?
However, he had expected that the two would say that, so he snorted and sneered: "No money? It's okay if you don't have money, then use something instead."

"What?" Mary and Hitches asked in unison.

"Aren't you alchemists? Why don't you make me something, such as magic dolls, transformation potions, holy objects, artifacts, or Mary's body... Cough, it's worth it anyway. "

Hitches immediately shook his head: "Don't be kidding, I'm a magic..."

"Damn your head." Sol kicked him unceremoniously: "The guy who owes a bad debt is not qualified to say such a thing, and besides, you cheated me so much gold coins and you haven't bothered with you yet."

As he spoke, he grinned grinningly like a gangster dun for debts: "The two of you can't help it now. If you still don't pay, don't blame me for being rude. So you should accept your fate and obey my orders obediently, hahahahaha..." Of course It would be even more perfect if he could pinch Mary's face at this time.

"No, I swore a long time ago that I would rather die than do anything related to alchemy." Hitches looked deathly at home: "If you want to torture me and ravage me because of this, then come."

Sol suddenly felt a little cold: You have persecution paranoia, old man?

Mary kept her head down, wondering what to think, when she suddenly raised her head: "Let me do it."

"You?" Suo Er was delighted: "Use your body... No, no, do you have money?"

Mary shook her head, and then said: "But I noticed that there is no alchemy workshop in your territory. If you are willing to let me open a shop here, with my skills, I can pay it off soon. "

"You want to stay here?" Jessica asked in surprise.

Mary spat: "I can't help it, who made this old man refuse to leave. So I must stay here and see with my own eyes how he was killed by my own crappy magic."

As she spoke, she glared at Hitches bitterly and said, "No matter how depraved you are, I will never agree with your point of view. Alchemy is the most powerful spell in the world. One day, I will prove it to you." You see."

Hitches made a grimace: "That's obviously impossible, la la la..." Apart from other things, this bad middle-aged guy is indeed a very flat guy.

Sol thought about it. The alchemy workshop is a place where alchemists make and sell their own items. Generally, such units only exist in large territories.In the continent of Magina, alchemy is a perfect technology that perfectly combines magic power and machinery, and magic dolls are the great crystallization of alchemy.

If an alchemy workshop can be opened in Lowell, it will not only greatly enrich the products of the territory, but also greatly promote the improvement of the level of the territory.Another important reason is that the alchemy workshop can also be regarded as the personal workshop of alchemists. They will not only make and sell goods, but also do various researches. If Mary researches something valuable Son, Saul developed.

Although I don't know how good Mary's alchemy is, she is the daughter of Hitches, so she shouldn't be far behind, right?Besides, sending an alchemist to your door for nothing is definitely a profitable business.

Thinking of this, Sol still has no reason to refuse: "That's the deal, but let's say it first, the debt will be charged with interest."

"Forget it, anyway, I can pay it off if I stay here for half a year at most." Mary snorted, obviously very confident in her skills.

As she said that, she changed the subject: "But I don't have a single silver coin on me, so you can first lend me hundreds of thousands of gold coins to buy a store, and buy the necessary equipment for alchemy."

"You..." Saul almost spit out a mouthful of blood when he heard it.Vampires, this father and daughter are definitely out-and-out vampires.

"You have already promised. If my store can't open, how will I pay you back? Don't blame me for reneging on debts." Mary looked like a rogue to the end.

If you play tricks with me, who is afraid of whom?Saul gritted his teeth: "Okay, you're the one to be cruel. Jessica, tell Reed later to allocate the funds immediately." It is conceivable that the financial officer of the territory will scream again after a while.

Jessica froze for a moment, as if she wanted to say something, but finally nodded.

"Good girl, I knew you loved Dad the most." Seeing that Mary had shouldered the debt for him, Hitches cheered and hugged Mary in his arms.

"Let go of me, you old man. I just stay here to see how you die. No matter what happens to you in the future, I won't care about you." Mary kicked Hitches away.

Hitches didn't care at all, and salivated his face again and leaned forward.Just like that, the father and daughter punched and kicked each other, and left the lord's mansion cursing.

Looking at the backs of the two, Jessica asked worriedly: "Are you really planning to let her open the shop?"

Saul nodded: "Of course, it's more than that, and the funding for Hitches will continue in the future."

Jessica was taken aback: "You clearly know that he is a liar, why do you still do this?"

Sol snorted and said, "Although he is a liar, he is also the best alchemist in the mainland. I don't ask him to get anything in return, but with his skills, as long as he helps at critical moments, he is definitely worth a ticket." It’s worth the price. And maybe he can really train me a few magicians.”

After a pause, he said again: "And if the old one stays here, will the young one run away? Hehe, don't forget that Mary is a real alchemist. Don't worry, after fully considering the value of the two father and daughter Before it is squeezed out, she will never pay off her account."

Seeing Saul's triumphant smile, Jessica suddenly felt that maybe the real vampire might be standing in front of her.

************************************************** ************
Although he was in pain when he received the appropriation order, Reed's work efficiency was very high. It took him less than 10 days to choose a store for Mary and purchase the necessary alchemy equipment.

So on this day, the first alchemy workshop in Lovell's history officially opened.

For the residents of Lovell, alchemy is a new thing that has never been seen before. On the day of the opening, a large number of residents came to watch and surrounded Mary's workshop, making it extremely lively.

When Manson directed the staff to hang up the big signboard of "Mary's Alchemy Workshop", the onlookers burst into applause, and then poured into the store.

The new store is very spacious, and there are several rows of shelves with samples that Mary has rushed to make in the past few days.As long as the customer likes which one, she can make additional reservations according to the demand.

As expected, Hitches kept his promise and would never touch anything related to alchemy, and his daughter did not come to participate in the grand opening.But this didn't hinder Mary's mood in the slightest. She looked confidently at the residents gathered around the shelves, pointing and pointing.With this kind of popularity, are you afraid that you won't be able to pay off that guy Saul's debt?
"It seems that your wishful thinking is not going to work, and the business seems to be going well." Jessica smiled at Sol in the corner of the shop.

Sol was also a little surprised. He didn't expect alchemy to be so attractive to people. This also reflects from the side that everyone's income is increasing, and there is an urgent need to increase consumption levels.Although this is good news, it also means that Mary may pay off her debts early.

"Let's have a look first, no one has bought it yet," he said.

"Excuse me, what is this?" A resident pointed to something similar to a rat trap, but with a magic crystal fragment embedded in the organ.

"Oh, that's the 'Mouse Dead Light No. [-]' invented by me." Mary glanced at it and explained.

"Is it a mouse catcher?" Another resident came over with interest immediately after hearing this, and Sol recognized that he was the owner of the grain store in the town.

Mary proudly said: "Of course, you can tell its power just by hearing the name. Different from the traditional mouse trap, my improved 'Mouse Death Light No. 100' traps the mouse, and the magic crystal on the mechanism will be extinguished." It is automatically triggered, and the resulting explosion will kill all rats within [-] meters, which will definitely save you from future troubles forever. Hey, how did you go, listen to me, this thing has more powerful functions..."

Under Mary's surprised gaze, all the surrounding customers turned pale and dispersed.Just kidding, catching a mouse can even blow up the house, who would buy this thing.

"What is this?" The customer on the other side asked again.

Mary dropped the mousetrap and walked over: "Oh, this is a simple hot water device I made."

"What's the use?" the man asked puzzled.

Mary said: "This is a good thing, as long as it is thrown into the water, its energy is enough to boil 3 kilograms of water within 10 minutes, and there is absolutely no toxic side effect, it is safe."

But what she said next made the people next to her face change: "It's only used once, and you need to add a fragment of the fire magic crystal, about 100 gold coins. It's a bit expensive, but it's very convenient, and it's worth the money ...Hey, where are you going, I haven't finished yet."

A group of customers all shook their heads and scattered away. It costs 100 gold coins to boil water once, isn't the price too high?

"Excuse me, what is this?" At this time, another customer asked.

Mary immediately threw down the sky-high priced water heater and walked over: "Ah, you really know what to buy. This is currently the most popular household spar lamp in the Bamuk Kingdom. It is easy to carry and has sufficient light source. The most important thing is that it can be used continuously for more than one year. And the price is cheap, only 25 gold coins per lamp."

At last there was something normal, and from Mary's description it seemed to be all right.At that moment, many people took out their pockets, ready to take one home.

At this moment, a talkative guy asked: "Why isn't it on, is it not turned on?"

Mary said: "Oh, this is an inductive spar lamp. It needs a large magic crystal to provide energy within 50 kilometers, so the lamp can be turned on. Lovell doesn't have such a large magic crystal, so it lights up. Can't get up."

With a bang, the surrounding citizens who were about to pay money immediately scattered away.Mary said anxiously: "It doesn't matter if you can't light it up, you can buy it home for decoration... Why don't you ask your lord to buy a large magic crystal, so that it can light up, it's not expensive, it only costs 2000 million gold coins..."

Next, Mary's goods are either too dangerous, too expensive, or useless at all.Not long after, the bustling shops gradually dispersed, and soon became deserted.

Looking at the last customer who ran away in fright because she introduced a pair of scissors whose hair would never grow back after being cut, Mary was both angry and puzzled.

The taste of the people in this territory is too bad. There are so many good things, but none of them are sold. When will I be able to pay off the debt?Obviously she didn't realize it at all, it was a problem with her own product at all.

"What are you still doing here, is it interesting to see my jokes?" Then, she shifted her gaze to the last two people in the store.

Saul said helplessly: "Don't you think the problem lies in these products? They either have functional problems, or ordinary people simply can't use them."

Mary sneered: "That's because your vision is wrong." Obviously, like all geniuses, they are stubborn about their own designs and don't listen to other people's words at all.

Sol secretly shouted, like a father like a daughter, if the so-called alchemy workshop is like this, his hundreds of thousands of investment is probably going to be in vain again.

After all, it was about his own interests, so he had no choice but to ask again: "Then... can you make some ordinary things?"

Mary was in a fit of anger, so she didn't have a good face to show him: "Stop talking nonsense, if you want to buy, buy it quickly, if you don't buy it, go out."

Sol couldn't laugh or cry: "Is there anyone who does business like this, and actually drives customers out?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the store: "Hey, I haven't been here for a while, when did an alchemy workshop open here?"

Upon hearing this voice, Sol and Jessica looked at each other, why is it her?
