Celestial Mage

Chapter 148 A Very Ordinary Lunch Conversation (44)

The closer the relationship, the more carefully it must be maintained.

If you think that you are careless, careless, or even rely on the other person's feelings for you to act recklessly, then it is easy to end badly.

Therefore, although the accident in the morning made Rosen feel a little reverie.

But because Gendroni is Serrandis's best sister, Rosen immediately put this thread of reverie behind him.

After getting along with each other, he has been well-behaved, without any hints, and in front of Serendis, he has always kept a slightly close but moderate distance with Gendroni.

'As long as you don't bring women outside to me, I don't mind. '

This is a dead line drawn by Selandis, and Rosen will always remember it.

In the next few days, Rosen fulfilled his promise, and with the help of his contacts at the Maple Leaf Tea Party and the Flower Society, he helped Gendroni open a magical tool shop in the Green Leaf City.

The name of the store is 'Sisters of Laughter', and it is only one street away from Sunshine Xiaozhu.

On the day of the opening, Lawson put in a lot of effort to promote it, and even brought Master Fuller to the show.

Gendeloni also made full preparations and presented many of her favorite works.

Rosen also put some rune stones and magic tools made by himself.

Gendroni's crafting skills are indeed good, and the few artifacts that Rosen consigned were also well received.

After some operation, the reputation of Sister Huanxiao spread throughout the mage circle of Silvermoon Castle, and the first wave of business was successfully completed, and the follow-up response was also good.

The signboard of the Magical Artifact Shop stood up.

After that, Rosen didn't pay much attention to it. After all, he was very busy and didn't plan to make much money from the magic weapon shop, and his main business of making money was painting.

Only one painting a month, qualified for bidding, theme optional, but must bring enough confession coupons.

All in all, painting can bring in a steady income of at least 1300 crowns a month.

On this day, after finishing a painting called "My Happy Time as Queen of the Moon Elf", Rosen picked up the invitation from Mochizuki Garden and rushed to have lunch with the earl.

The count would often invite the mage to have lunch with her, and Rosen was not a special case.

He rushed to Wangyue Garden familiarly, and as soon as he got off the carriage, a servant came to show him the way.

"My lord, Madam is waiting for you in the small garden."

Rosen was taken aback: "Little Garden, Madam, will you invite me alone?"

The small garden is generally a place for private talks.If it is a large garden, there will be a group of mages talking about it.

The servant nodded: "Madam didn't sleep well last night, she had some headaches, she wants to be quiet."

"Well, I see."

It is not the first time that I have been summoned to talk alone, and it is basically to discuss flow skills.

After entering the small garden and coming to the rain shelter in the center of the garden, I saw the earl sitting lazily on a cool wicker chair, wearing a cool but luxurious flowing silk skirt.

There was also a female envoy gently fanning her.

Of course the mage can cast cool spells on himself, just like people with legs can walk.

But nobles like to ride in carriages, and they also like to let others serve them.

The reason is simple, it is comfortable to do so.

"sit down."

The count pointed to the chair opposite, waved to the attendant, and all kinds of dishes were brought up.

This was not the first time, Rosen naturally wouldn't restrain himself, and just faced the Earl in a polite but slightly wanton way.

After sitting down, he gnawed the tender lamb ribs with both hands and asked, "Ma'am, what kind of flow problem did you encounter this time?"

Count Sophia watched Rosen eat with relish, but he only ate a little bit.

"Let's not talk about flow numbers today. This thing is subtle at first, but after going deep into it, it is extremely cumbersome, especially the multi-dimensional curved flow array you mentioned last time. Although it can indeed solve problems, it gives me a headache."

Rosen shrugged: "There is no way. I can only say that the laws of nature are far more complicated than we imagined."

Sophia nodded in approval: "Indeed."

She took a small bite of the fish and asked, "I heard that you went to take care of the territory some time ago?"

Rosen's heart moved slightly, but he admitted frankly: "Although I won't put in too much energy, I still have to take care of it, at least not to make life difficult for the people in charge."

"Oh, so how do you do it?"

"I didn't do anything, just exempted tax for a few years, and then paid some money to repair irrigation canals and roads, and rebuilt the damaged public buildings."

The earl was a little curious: "Although I don't do much, it will cost a lot of money to do it well, at least thousands of crowns, right?"

"Madam guessed right, it did cost thousands of crowns."

"Spent so much money, it may not be possible to get it back from the territory in five or six years. The people in the territory may appreciate your kindness, but they may also think that you are taking advantage of it."

Rosen finished his ribs and was carefully spreading sweet milk sauce on the bread.

"It doesn't matter if you can't get it back, and it doesn't matter if you are taken advantage of, as long as you don't go too far."

After a pause, he said with a smile: "Besides, those ordinary people can't take advantage of me."

"Oh~"

The earl is more interested: "From past experience, you seem to like fair trade and don't like being taken advantage of by others. How can you let the people take advantage of you?"

Rosen said earnestly: "If I'm dealing with peers or high-ranking people, I will naturally try my best to protect my interests. After all, I'm in a low-ranking position. If I don't do this, I may be bullied."

"Of course, what I'm talking about is if. Madame didn't bully me."

"But if the other party is in a vulnerable situation, the little money they need may be just a lunch for me, but it may be life-saving money for emergency treatment for them."

"The same amount of money is far from equal in importance to both of us. I don't mind exchanging my lunch for a life of a citizen, or making life easier for a citizen."

"Then if they get better and want to be better, even want to live a better life than you?"

"I don't think I need to take action. The cold social laws will restrain them."

"What are the laws?"

"Without literacy or maps, most people will not be able to walk a hundred miles in their lifetime, let alone martial arts, let alone spells."

"The huge gap in knowledge and power will well restrain their desires."

This is not the earth, the superiors mostly rely on fooling around to control the inferiors, but there are really powerful spells here, and if a great mage initiates a ruthless attack, it will be useless for many ordinary people to come.

Now that the gap is so large, there is no need to exploit it to death, and if it is properly relaxed, it can also promote the overall productivity of society.

The count nodded slowly: "Very well, as expected of someone who has experienced a hard life. In your eyes, the lower class civilians are still human beings, not livestock or tools."

Having said that, she didn't go any further, but changed the topic.

"How many new spells have you learned recently?"

"I learned a six-star mid-level spell, and I also improved some powerful gravity spells, and also made an extraordinary version of a powerful missile."

"But because of the limited ability to cast spells, I can't learn stronger ones."

The count smiled and said: "At your age, six stars are already very good. You are still young and have a lot of time in the future. Don't worry."

"I remember, ma'am."

"By the way, have you been to see Chapolet recently?"

"Often. Uncle also taught me the key points of riding a horse, and I have mastered them well. But I still don't like riding a horse, and my thigh hurts."

"Hahaha~"

"You are a mage, you just need to learn some riding skills, there is no need to practice more."

"But having said that, Chapolei, an ignorant guy, I'm afraid he can only teach you this."

"No, ma'am, uncle also taught me a lot of experience against powerful warriors, all of which are very practical."

"Oh, it's a business."

Afterwards, they chatted casually for a while. Seeing that Rosen was full, the earl said, "I'm a little sleepy too. I have to go to rest. You should step back."

"Thank you madam for your hospitality."

Rosen rubbed his stomach, he was very full, because the cooks in Mochizuki Garden were really good.

The count was amusing and couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, at your age, you should eat as much as you can."

"You're fine. You're much taller than before. You should be taller than Chapolei now. It seems that you listened to what I said."

Rosen felt ashamed in his heart: "Thank you Madam for your teaching."

Others listened to it, but they failed to abstinence, and even indulged a little bit.

Not to mention Serendis, the newlywed wife, thunder and fire, will fight if she is not careful.

Xia Lina also often came to him in the name of asking for advice, and she always came once every ten days and half a month.

Fortunately, there are only two, which can barely handle it.

After watching the earl exit the garden, he also turned and left.

Walking on the road, thinking back to the earl's seemingly unintentional question, he had roughly guessed something in his heart.

"The only problem at present is that the sources of information are too fragmented, and everything is guesswork, which is very imprecise."

When I was sitting in the carriage, I couldn't help thinking: "It would be great if I had an excellent intelligence officer to collect information for me."

Unconsciously, he returned to Sunshine Xiaozhu, and when he reached the door, he saw a pure black carriage parked at the door.

Luo Sen was startled: "No way, didn't you just ask for advice the day before yesterday, and you came to ask me for advice again today?"

But then my heart moved: "I'm afraid the temple has a mission!"
