"Of course I remember."

"Then what do you think ten silver coins can buy?"

Du Wei waved his hand.

"I understand what you mean. Ten silver coins really can't even afford the pillow I sleep on."

Gretha, a commoner, seemed to be very shocked when she heard what he said. After all, Farwin is one of the largest families in the empire, and almost all the furniture and daily necessities in the mansion are custom-made or expensive luxury items. Luxury goods, as extravagant as they are.

Only the royal family can beat his family in terms of luxury.

"However! Who said that ten silver coins are not enough? My people will take Ge Lisha to the newly opened supermarket in the upper city. Fold it, a copper coin can move a sofa."

Basically, Du Wei didn't need to pay for consumption there, after all, the major shareholder of that shopping mall was his fiancée.

"..."

"I didn't violate the school rules. The school rules don't stipulate that club funds must be purchased at the original price."

Lavana-senpai rubbed her forehead and said.

"The vice president actually took the lead in exploiting loopholes in the school regulations."

"If you don't come here, I don't believe that everyone obeys the school rules obediently."

What's more, the former taboo research club could turn a blind eye and close one eye, so the horticultural club with him naturally needs to take special care of it.

After explaining the layout of the classroom, they started the community activities of the gardening club.

It is said to be a club activity, but in fact there is nothing to do at the moment. We can only transplant the flowers and plants planted by the gardening club in the past to the open space in front of the new classroom.

Du Wei wiped the sweat off his face after moving the potted plants to the new classroom one by one.

"Huh, I didn't expect you to plant a lot of flowers and plants."

Ge Lisha hastily bowed her head and apologized.

"terribly sorry."

"Why are you suddenly apologizing?"

"It's because I planted too much, Mr. Du Wei and Mrs. Lavana should rest together, I will do all these."

Du Wei showed off his muscles.

"I'm not one of those noble young masters who have no power to restrain a chicken. Besides, I can't just leave it to you to be a girl."

He is not a machismo, but Ge Lisha is not like a woman like Tiehua, and she is very short-sighted who doesn't like wearing glasses. She has already smashed two pots of flowers at that time. Let her do it alone and don't know when to move.

And this little labor is nothing to him, a martial arts practitioner. The two of them worked together and could finish it before school in the afternoon.

As for the other senior member, Lavana, she was sitting in the shade of a tree with a book in her hands, reading, without any intention of coming over to help.

Forget it, after all, she's just here for a name.

Du Wei picked up a pot of lavender and asked.

"By the way, Ge Lisha, what specialty did you get selected by the school?"

The commoner students in the Royal Academy were all specially selected and reviewed before finally being able to enter the highest institution of the Knox Empire, so Grisha must have her special expertise.

Gretha replied with some embarrassment.

"Herbology, my father is a pharmacist, so I know more about plants than others since I was a child."

Although Ge Lisha said it very modestly, Du Wei thought it should not be that simple. After all, how could the son of an ordinary pharmacist obtain the admission qualification of the Royal Academy.

"Herbology, has someone come to pick you?"

Although commoner students in the Royal Academy can be exempted from tuition fees, and even those who have excellent grades in school can receive a large amount of scholarships, but every commoner student must work for the country for at least five years once they graduate, and violators will be punished. He was dealt with as a crime.

However, Du Wei has not heard of anyone violating it so far. After all, once he graduates, he can still have a public job at worst. If he performs well, he may even be promoted to a minor nobleman. The benefits can be said to be very good.

Greta laughed dryly.

"Master Du Wei was joking, how could there be nobles who would appreciate my talent."

A pharmacist is already a very good job among the civilians. Although the healing services of the Illuminati Church are very effective, in order to prevent the abuse of the magic, the charge for one treatment is not cheap, so most of the civilians still find a pharmacist when they get sick. Healing diseases is not so important in the eyes of nobles. Nobles can afford magical treatment, and pharmacists are only useful for nobles to prepare tonics to nourish the body.

Du Wei stroked his chin.

"But herbalism...you don't have to be a pharmacist in the future."

Commoner students generally have two ways out. One is to be assigned by the college to work in various agencies after graduation, and the other is to be selected by the nobles, and the nobles will come forward to buy the five-year use period of the commoner student from the college after graduation. .

The benefits of the second type are generally much higher than the first type. After all, being favored by nobles can be regarded as treating them as retainers.

However, students can also choose to refuse the recruitment of nobles, and the Knox Empire still respects the personal wishes of the students on this point.

"Well, if no one recruits you after you graduate, then come to me."

"Okay... Hey! Come to you!?"

Grisha let out a very loud exclamation.

"What? Don't you want to?"

Gretha quickly waved her hand to explain.

"No, I didn't mean that. It's just that Master Du Wei's family is one of the three great dukes in the empire. If you want a pharmacist, you can easily find someone who is stronger and more experienced than me."

What she said was indeed correct, as long as he used the contacts of the Farwin family, as long as Du Wei called out, he could easily catch a lot of pharmacists for him to drive.

"But I didn't say that I wanted to recruit you to be a pharmacist."

"Uh... But, but the only thing I can get on the table is herbology."

Du Wei put on the non-existent air glasses.

"I just fell in love with your herbology expertise, but what I want you to do is not a pharmacist, but a plant researcher."

"...plant researcher? What is this?"

Grisha seemed a little dazed.

Du Wei pointed to the potted plant in his hand.

"I asked you what is the effect of this lavender?"

Ge Lisha replied in seconds.

"Essential oils or perfumes for alchemy can be extracted, and there are many medicinal effects. For example, lavender tea can calm the nerves..."

Du Wei raised his hand to stop.

"Stop for a moment, since there are so many effects, how about continuing to improve and breed it? For example, lavender that is not purple or lavender that has a stronger fragrance, or even insect resistance, weather resistance, etc. I am talking about these plants. plant researchers’ work content.”

Greta said after thinking for a while.

"I kind of understand what you mean. Improve from the source, so that the quality or output of the finished product will be relatively improved. Is that what you mean?"

It seems that this guy has something, and he can see through it.

Although the Rose Manor now has the technical support of the Harvest Church, it does not mean that he will outsource all the improved research technologies to the Church.

There is no permanent banquet in the world, what he can do is to cultivate a group of talents of his own now, but this is not easy.

Although the rabbit people who work for him in the manor are trustworthy, their knowledge level is very low. It takes a long time for them to toss the maids in the mansion just to let them learn numbers. Barely make some achievements.

However, as Farwen's next head, it is impossible for him to only care about the manor every day, so he has been actively looking for similar research talents.

And Ge Lisha obviously met Du Wei's requirements. She knew herbology and could guarantee a period of use of at least five years. Even if the period expired, he was confident that he could offer better conditions to keep her.

Du Wei persuaded.

"How? This is an invitation from the next head of the Falvin family."

"It's ... I'm going to go back and talk to my family about it."

Sure enough, it was not so easy to lure talents, but they had only known each other for a few days, and this was a major life event related to their future. It was not that Du Wei could not understand her feelings.

"Okay, anyway, my invitation is valid until graduation, so you can think about it slowly during this time."

Anyway, time is still long, they can get along slowly.

117 Confrontation, Child of Destiny?

As a result, the horticultural club's club activities ended in carrying potted plants, but Ge Lisha planted more herbs than Du Wei had imagined. Although it wasn't too tiring, it still made him sweat all over.

When Tiehua came to pick him up from school, Du Wei confessed that he would go back later today and asked her to accompany Ge Lisha to the mall to help purchase furniture decoration.

Then Du Wei went to Karina's classroom to pick her up. Before going to Princess Kaenos' dormitory, they first went to the principal's office where Rowling was, and reported the incident to her before leaving for their destination. , and there is one more member in hand.

Du Wei gently stroked the black cat Sasha's back and said.

"Sasha has always been this size."

Karina laughed.

"A magic pet is condensed by the user's magic power as a carrier, and it is not an ordinary pet."

Du Wei thought about his pet and retorted.

"But my Xiao Di's size is obviously bigger."

Karina shook her head.

"That should be an attribute specialization rather than growth. For example, spellcasters with water attribute talents will have a slimmer body shape for their familiars."

"Sasha, is this really the case?"

"Meow."

The black cat's little paw patted his arm, and it seemed that it was exactly what Karina said.

"It's been a while since I saw Master Du Wei's pet."

"I let it out in the school building every day."

When she was a child, Karina would often hold Creeper as a puppet, but later it got annoyed and simply avoided her.

Karina thought suddenly.

"The green monster that is rumored to haunt the women's dormitory, could it be Lord Du Wei's pet?"

"...I think it's more or less close."

In this way, they chatted along the way to Princess Kainos' dormitory.

"The student dormitory of the Royal Academy is so high-end, it makes me want to come and live in it myself."

The house in front of me is not so much a dormitory as a private holiday villa. The three-story building also has its own small courtyard, except that there is no private swimming pool. In short, the two words are luxury.

Karina shook her head.

"Not everyone's dormitory is like this. It's a benefit that you can enjoy at an extra cost."

"Ah? You only have to pay for it, so it should cost a lot, right?"

Karina thought for a while and replied.

"I remember that one semester seems to need a hundred gold coins."

One hundred gold coins for one semester?Why didn't the college go grab it? With this money, several identical villas could be built.

"Where do ordinary nobles and commoners live?"

"I live in the backyard of the school building. I remember that the ordinary dormitory where commoners live is a room for four people, while the nobles live in a bungalow by themselves. Of course, the dormitories for the two are also separate."

The difference in treatment is obvious, alas, it can only be said that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

Now it seems that Princess Kainos has indeed made a lot of money by relying on maritime trade. Du Wei would not be willing to spend a hundred gold coins a semester.

After Du Wei rang the doorbell in front of the villa, a maid quickly came out of the villa to greet them.

"Welcome to the presence of the two adults."

That maid was one of the four maids that Princess Hill had served with when she came to the imperial capital, and Tie Hua once deduced that the skills of these four maids were not simple.

Du Wei himself couldn't see anything unusual, but the maid had a smile on her face when she spoke, but it was a superficial smile, which always gave him a very weird feeling.

Guided by the maid, they entered the villa. The furniture and decorations in the villa were also beautiful and luxurious, but it was nothing surprising for Du Wei to see a lot in the Duke's mansion.

"Welcome to be our guests, Lord Du Wei and Miss Karina."

In the living room, the princess of Kainos got up from the sofa and greeted them politely.
