Chapter 79 Private Transactions

Chapter 79 Private Transactions
After having lunch in the restaurant, Bai Tongtong went back to the dormitory and lit the fireplace in the living room. The rising room temperature quickly replaced the icy chill. She took a nice nap on the couch, got up in the afternoon and sat in the bedroom to tidy up from Berwick in the middle of the night. All documents stolen from the Earl's Court.

It must be something of value, but it has little effect on Bai Tongtong, but the Earl of Berwick who lost the document is probably going to be furious.

Flipping through these rough paper documents casually, Bai Tongtong actually found the formula of the dye. Looking at the marks on the paper, it turned out to be from the hands of a magician in the United Kingdom of Pokley.

Bai Tongtong found a pen and paper to copy down this formula, thinking that it might be useful in the future, after all, this formula is good, the silver dyed is beautiful and lifelike, but it is not used in the right place.

There is nothing surprising in the documents. It is nothing more than ordinary things such as property income on the land of Berwick, correspondence with superiors, and some are combat plans, but they are all overdue for a long time, but it can be seen that the Principality of Tamir He and Berwick are old rivals.

[It turns out that the role of the Principality of Tamir is actually a military buffer zone, preventing the barbarians from the north from going south to burn, kill and plunder. Well, no wonder the relationship is so close. ] Bai Tongtong put aside the battle plan and continued to look at other things.

[The people in the hard-pressed places need to be tough, how can they survive if they are not strong enough to survive. 】Ah Huang was lying on his back in front of the fireplace in the bedroom, with a happy expression on his face that was full of heat.

[In this way, the canyon outside Scara Castle is actually not a very safe border. I don’t know when the enemy will cross the canyon and enter. 】

[Knowing that the other party has a shadowless cat, you dare to attack the country with an army, and you are not afraid that your capital will be bloodbathed? 】Ah Huang scoffed.

Bai Tongtong responded with a mean smile.

After flipping through the documents hastily, and tidying them up again, Bai Tongtong ran to the restaurant over the civilian dormitory to have dinner, and found a few senior black magic students to discuss business. She didn't go to the black mage for the wall technique, what if the teacher threw the mind-peeping technique on her for a while.

Bai Tongtong, who can cooperate with Master Jules to design experimental projects for alchemy students, is honestly the object of flattery for middle and senior students, and black magic will also do some weird experiments, the students enthusiastically agreed to this project Make deals, write lists, and go outside after dinner to teach spells and tricks.

After returning to the dormitory, Bai Tongtong practiced these two spells in turn non-stop. She had no other ideas before she learned them, but now it is completely different, just like what the students told her just now. After that, he habitually used the white wall technique before leaving the dormitory, otherwise who knows who would meet someone in a while and cast the mind-peeping technique on himself.

The candor technique still makes people take the initiative to confide, but the mind-peeping technique is obtained directly without saying hello. Compared with it, the mind-peeping technique is more dangerous.

While she was busy reciting spells, in the brown-gray low-key house with discolored exterior walls in Wangdu Voss block, the man who came back early had dinner and waited in the study for the magic pet who fed back the information.

[The theft of the Earl of Berwick's mansion is very cat-like. The granary, cellar, armory, safe, and everything that can be carried away in a space bag are taken away, including those confidential documents.During the whole process, no one noticed that outsiders were sweeping their property, and it was not discovered by the servants until this morning. ] Harding reports.

[The reason is that someone in Amo City sells a large amount of fake truth water in the name of a cat's partner. 】

【yes.You also received the information? 】

[Principal Hart sent a message to the headquarters of the Magician Guild, accusing the guild of Amo City of negligence. After the truth water appeared in the market, they have not sent a letter to ask to confirm the authenticity. The principal is very angry about this matter. 】

【Oh, that president is going to be in trouble.The cat and its partner have been running there for the past few weekends, and they are teleported from the guild every time. They can't pretend to be deaf and dumb about what I can find out. Let's see if they have any reason to explain it when they arrive. 】

[That's a matter for the Magician's Guild, I can't get involved in their internal investigation.Tell me about the Earl?Have they contacted the village yet? 】

[No, I didn't care about it at all, they were all crying for the empty granary. 】

[All the fake fox furs in the village are ready? 】

[All done, a lot of beautiful and delicate silver fox fur. 】

[So the sudden listing of False and True Water is for the foreshadowing of this fake silver fox fur? 】

[The cat and its partners did not touch the grocery store selling potions, the workshops making potions, or the villages making fox fur, but directly swept up the Earl of Berwick's mansion. 】

【Go and help them. If you find that the Earl of Berwick sent someone to deliver a message to the village, you know what to do. 】

[Understood, let the village think that everything is normal, deliver the goods as usual, and let the fakes enter Amo City through the hands of smugglers. 】

[This is a deliberate act of revenge after they discovered the real mastermind behind the scenes, completely disrupting Earl Berwick's happy plan. The fake real water and fake silver fox fur in the market were cleaned up as much as possible at one time, and the cat's partner built a personal reputation and word-of-mouth after the matter was over. 】The man figured out the middle link, and the corner of his mouth slowly raised a smile of appreciation.

[No wonder cats pick her as a partner, cats hate idiots. 】 Harding flicked his tail clearly.

[Okay, I can't take care of business matters. Political matters will be closely watched from now on. Tamir's recent political pressure will suddenly increase. I hope to suppress it at the level of verbal wars. 】

[Are you worried that there will be a fight between the two countries?Berwick lost all the food in storage, and even if they wanted to fight, they had to get food from other places first.Besides, they know that we have shadowless cats. If you don't want soldiers to fight in the front while the rear is washed with blood, it's best not to have this urge. 】 Harding rolled his eyes in disdain.

The man smiled, 【There should be no war between countries, but disputes among nobles may be inevitable. The Earl of Berwick will definitely find an excuse to send troops to the Principality of Tamir, just like the two sides have harassed each other intermittently before. 】

【Duke Kalyadha will be prepared for these things. He has been in office for so many years, and he has fought countless battles. You don’t need to worry about it. It’s enough for others to ask him a little bit. 】

[But the problem is that Grand Duke Kalljad didn't know that the Earl of Berwick's mansion was swept away by mysterious people, leaving no food or weapons. ] The man reached out and scratched the pet's chin.

Harding gritted his teeth, 【It's your job to prepare the required documents. For the rest, don't care what those people do. Anyway, everything is under your control. 】

[By the way, speaking of documents, what did the cat and its partner do with the lost documents of Earl Berwick?That's something that's useful to us. 】

【Then write her a letter to ask, anyway, the runestone is only used once, and there is enough motivation to send the letter. 】

The man giggled, scratched the canine's face and cheeks, and then leaned over the table, preparing a paper and pen to prepare his stomach for writing a letter.

Bai Tongtong was practicing magic in the courtyard vigorously, when there was a change in the ring, she hurried back to her room and took out the box containing the runestones, there was indeed a letter.

[Damn, this local tyrant is terribly well-informed, he wants to buy all the documents of the Earl of Berwick in my hand, one silver coin per page? ! 】

[Why don't you ask him if he still wants those weapons, equipment and food?You sell him all. 】

【Hey!Miss the point? !This is not business, okay! 】Bai Tongtong gave the little cheap cat a sideways look.

[Then what do you want to do?He wrote all the letters, do you want to renege on the debt?And throw those papers in the fireplace and burn them? 】Ah Huang rolled his eyes.

[Don't you find it strange?How did he know this? 】

[He can produce such exquisite teleportation runestones, do you think such a local tyrant will not have his own information channel abroad? 】

【what!What a terrible local tyrant! 】

[I don’t know if it’s some great nobleman? 】

[I'd better ask him if he accepts those weapons and equipment. 】

Bai Tongtong went upstairs to look for a pen, and was too lazy to look for paper, so he just added a sentence at the bottom of the note - do you want weapons, equipment and food?

Harding threw the note on the host's table without a word. The man laughed happily after reading it, touched the corners of his wet eyes, and looked at his pet, 【She is such an interesting woman. 】

【I thought she would ask how you got the news. ] Harding felt a little annoyed at his guess wrong, 【Doesn't she want to know who is contacting her? 】

[Because she knows that if she asks, there will be no answer. 】The man rolled up the quill with the wind, dipped it in ink, and added a sentence directly under the note.

Bai Tongtong wrinkled his face when he received the note, 【He can accept the grain at the market price, weapons and equipment are only willing to be bought by smugglers, because it is very troublesome to re-smelt them. 】

[Well, yes, it’s too large, and it’s difficult to accept all of them at once. It’s a good suggestion to sell them to smugglers in batches. 】

[And it can't be sold on the northern border, it has to be sold elsewhere. 】Bai Tongtong flicked the note with his fingers,【Those scraps of copper and metal have been accumulated in his hands for a while. 】

[You have a lot of backlogs, not bad for these things. 】Ah Huang licked his nose.

[But how to weigh those grains?How do I know how many pages there are in those documents? 】

[Go to the yard, you will know when you put it on the ground. 】

Ah Huang left the room first, and Bai Tongtong followed behind suspiciously and curiously.

When he arrived in the courtyard, he took out all the documents and put them on the ground. Ah Huang walked around three times and reported a number.

【If you don't believe me, just count it yourself. 】

[No, it's not bad for the error of these few pages. 】Bai Tongtong quickly put away the documents to avoid being blown away by the wind, and then dumped the food all over the yard.

The Earl of Berwick’s granary stocked the entire territory’s grain and distributed it to the people on a regular basis. Although it was nothing more than potatoes and bacon, it was conceivable to all the population in a territory whose food was poor and depended on this as the staple food. How big the loss was, Bai Tongtong's small dormitory yard couldn't accommodate it all, so he could only use another space bag to slowly switch over, and finally came up with a total weight figure.

After cleaning the yard, Bai Tongtong ran back to the bedroom to write a reply.

After the man sent the letter, he went to take a shower. When he finished his bath and returned to the study in his nightgown, Harding had already put the note on the table. He walked over to look at the number written on it, and opened the safe , took out the interspatial bag full of gold coins, opened the bag and dumped it directly on the ground, but was picked up in mid-air by the wind, and none of them fell to the ground.

Counting the total number of gold coins that need to be paid, and not caring about the error of one or two gold coins, the man found an empty space bag to pack the gold coins, opened the drawer and activated the teleportation array and threw them into the space bag.

Bai Tongtong was waiting by the side. Seeing the runestone teleportation array unfold, a space bag jumped out. She grabbed it off and opened it to look inside. And a space bag for documents tossed in.

There is still some time before going to bed, and she doesn't want to practice magic anymore, so Bai Tongtong starts to empty the space bag she used to hold money again, and gathers the three kinds of silver coins, gold, silver and copper, into the three space bags, freeing up as many empty space bags as possible Keeping it as a spare, I checked out the jewelry and found several colorful space rings. One of them had a larger inner space than Bai Tongtong's, but she dared not use it, not to mention that the color and quality of the gemstones on the ring face were inconsistent with her own. , the pattern style of the ring alone is not native to the country.

So there were a few more things to deal with for the smugglers.

Before going out for breakfast the next morning, Bai Tongtong used the white wall technique on herself, feeling as if there was an additional fog barrier in her mind before walking out.

He took the food in the restaurant and found a seat to sit down, while eating, he sneakily threw mind-peeping tricks at others.

With the time spent practicing last night, it was barely enough to memorize the spells, and the proficiency in casting spells had to be practiced slowly. She was not interested in the students' personal privacy, and as long as the spell casting was successful, she would change the target.

Bai Tongtong was playing vigorously, when there was a breeze behind her head, one hand patted her shoulder, and when she looked back, it was Trim in casual clothes.

"Just came back from home?"

"Yeah." Trim looked a little tired and didn't sleep well, but he was still in good spirits. The family should already have a coping strategy, so there's no need to worry about his family going bad.

Trim took out a large package of things wrapped in oiled paper and handed it to Bai Tongtong, "My mother asked me to bring you some bacon."

"Oh, Ma'am, you're very kind, thank you." Bai Tongtong touched it with his hands, felt that there was a sausage inside, and threw it into the ring without opening it face to face.

"What were you doing just now? You seem to be smiling maliciously." Trim looked around, and Annie and Ted were sitting with their classmates.

"It's nothing. Yesterday the principal suggested that I learn the white wall technique, so I inquired about it. It's best to learn the mind-peeping technique at the same time." Bai Tongtong said in an indifferent tone on purpose.

The next moment, Bai Tongtong saw Trim crossing his arms, looking unyielding in the face of threats, his eyes widened, "Practice is practice, don't use it on me!"

Bai Tongtong was stunned for a moment, almost lying on the table with a smile, the corners of his mouth trembling, trying to hold back the smile, "If you say that, I will want to try it on you even more."

Trim stood up resolutely, and decided to stay away from Bai Tongtong, who was running straight up the danger level.

Seeing the young master from the grand duke's family run away, Bai Tongtong turned to sit up straight and continued eating her breakfast, but just as she took a bite of oatmeal porridge, she still couldn't hold back her smile after all, and choked and coughed violently.

 It's hot~~~The stools are hot~~~~
