My Magic Age

Chapter 1523 73. The morning of the Harvest Festival

Betty pushed open the warehouse door, and a team of orcs came out of the warehouse carrying a full box of magic rune boards and loaded the large wooden boxes into a magic caravan. This ten-meter-long cargo caravan can hold forty boxes of poly. After a cart is filled with fire spell magic rune boards, the magic caravan will slowly drive away from the entrance of the warehouse. The magic caravan behind will follow, and orcs will continue to carry large wooden boxes out of the warehouse one after another.

Murray opened two large wooden boxes as usual and saw the neatly arranged magic rune boards inside. Then he leaned against the wall at the door of the warehouse, struck a match and lit the tobacco mixed with spices in the pipe. , took a deep breath from the cigarette, and the white smoke spurted out from his nostrils like two arrows. He opened his eyes and said to me with a smile on his face: "I thought you couldn't come tonight. ”

Betty fanned the acrid smoke with her hands, hid on the other side of the warehouse door holding the account book, and carefully recorded the number of wooden boxes moved out of the warehouse.

I rubbed my sore shoulders with my hands and asked Murray, "How have you been at the rune workshop these two days?"

Murray smiled "hehe" and said in a hoarse voice: "What else... The consequence of the third price reduction is that the alley outside the workshop is lined with magic caravans waiting to pull goods."

His eyes were full of red bloodshot eyes, and it looked like he probably hadn't slept well recently.

"Has it been like this lately?" I asked Murray.

Murray nodded and said, "Yes, the rune workshop is now operating at full capacity in three shifts. Unfortunately, it still cannot process so many copper hot pots and exhaust fans."

I rubbed my forehead and asked Murray again: "How are the sales of magic lamps and ovens?"

Murray told me: "For the time being, the sales situation is still good, and we can sell almost as much as we make."

Recently, the supply of magic rune plates has suddenly increased. I was worried that the coppersmiths and woodshops upstream could not supply enough copper pots and exhaust fan covers, so I asked Murray: "What are the coppersmiths and woodshops upstream? Under what circumstances, can we supply goods in time? ”

Without thinking, Murray blurted out: "Currently, there are twenty-seven coppersmith shops and eight carpenters supplying us. Copper hot pots, ovens, and magic lamps are supplied by twenty-one coppersmith workshops in turn. Exhaust fans and refrigerators are supplied by six carpentry workshops. Once any company encounters supply problems during production, a new supplier will be selected from the remaining six coppersmith shops and two carpentry workshops. Our workshop has a high demand for copperware and wooden boxes. "I wonder how many coppersmiths and carpenters in the imperial capital want to cooperate with us."

"This is a good idea. How are the sales of refrigerators?" I asked Murray.

Because I previously asked him to adjust the appearance of the refrigerator and add an insulation layer to the refrigerator according to my design. There are also strict requirements for the paint layer on the outer surface of the refrigerator. Murray has probably been doing this recently.

Murray scratched the back of his neck with his hand and said to me with some embarrassment: "The sales of refrigerators during this period are not satisfactory. After all, the weather is getting colder in autumn, and it is normal for the demand for refrigerators to shrink significantly."

Then Murray asked me again: "Boss, do you want to restrict the sale of the two magic rune boards of 'Fire Gathering' and 'Miniature Tornado'?"

I thought about it for a moment. The new batch of dwarf slaves that Alia bought from the slave market have gradually become accustomed to the life in the underground caves of Xinliu Valley. They are gradually joining the production team of the magic seal workshop. It won’t be long before the magic seal workers The production capacity of the factory will be further increased, so he said to Murray: "We don't need it for the time being. We will ship according to the current production. We will ship as much as the outsiders want. If we can't make that much, we will let them wait for the time being." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Murray agreed.

At this time, the cargo of the second magic caravan was already full. Murray waved to the coachman, indicating that he was waiting at the entrance of the alley in front, and waved to the magic caravan behind, indicating to the coachman to drive the magic caravan away. come over.

Under the dim street light, Murray's body looked thinner, even a little hunched over. He wore a top hat on his head, a gray woolen coat, and a pair of brand new blue moccasin boots. He looked like a manager. I remember seeing him at the entrance of the rune workshop a year ago. It was a snowy day in winter. He was wearing a single coat and leaning against the wall to bask in the sun. I just needed someone at that time. He helped me guard the rune workshop, so I hired him.

To put it into perspective, it was less than a year ago. Looking at how well-dressed he is now, which is similar to what wealthy businessmen in the imperial capital wear, his life has undergone earth-shaking changes and he looks full of energy.

Betty stood under the wall on the other side of the warehouse and recorded the quantity of goods. The cool night breeze made her face flush. She wore an apricot silk scarf on her shoulders and meticulously recorded each box of goods.

Next to her was a young maid, holding a lantern in her hand. The girl looked a little tired and yawned constantly. However, she seemed a little afraid of the orcs. Whenever the orcs passed by her carrying wooden boxes, She would always open her eyes wide, full of vigilance.

I walked up to Betty and asked her, "Where's Aaliyah?"

Betty quickly put down the quill in her hand, curtsied to me, and then said: "Mrs. Anne Zimmerman from El City came to the Imperial Capital to celebrate the Harvest Festival. The master will entertain Mrs. Anne these two days."

Lady Anne is the late Countess Zimmerman, the mother of Ann Zimmerman and Demi Zimmerman. When our Falcon Team brought her and Aaliyah from the Zimmerman Manor After being rescued from the wine cellar, she brought Demi and Ann to El City, and opened a hotel in the busiest part of Central Street in El City. The business of the hotel has been good in the past two years, and Demi has been Living with Aria in the imperial capital, Lady Anne stayed in El City to take care of Ann.

I didn't expect that Mrs. Anne would leave Andu at her home in El City at this time, but she would come to the imperial capital.

"Um, why did Mrs. Anne come to the Imperial Capital at this time?" I couldn't help but ask Betty.

Betty looked at the wall, wrapped the account book in front of her chest, and said to me cautiously: "I probably want to stay for a while. The master asked me to ask you, if you can spare time to have dinner at the manor recently?"

Is this a dinner with Lady Anne? I hesitated for a moment and wanted to refuse, but I thought that with Aaliyah's style of doing things, she would not send me such an embarrassing invitation without a necessary reason, so I said to Betty: " Oh, I’m afraid we can’t do it tomorrow, the schedule is already full, if Aria can arrange it, we can schedule it for the night after tomorrow.”

"Are you going to participate in the celebration of Angel Bould's Royal Awakening during the Harvest Festival?" Betty smiled slightly and asked me.

I nodded slightly.

Although everything went very smoothly during the transportation of goods in the Imperial Capital Warehouse, due to the huge cargo throughput, even if more than a hundred orc warriors joined the transportation process, barbarian slaves piled all the materials in the underground cave of Xinliu Valley. The field below the teleportation altar was empty, but the entire box of finished magic rune boards was moved to the magic caravan, and some rune board waste was piled in the warehouse. Nearly 500 boxes of magic rune board blanks were transported to Xinliu Valley. This process lasted until dawn.

A morning star lit up in the night sky, and a pale white strip of light even appeared on the top of Mazzaro Mountain. The bright stars in the night sky disappeared one by one, and the imperial capital was about to usher in a new day.

In the morning, before the sky was completely bright, many colorful floats quietly appeared on the streets of the imperial capital.

These floats will circle the Lakeside Avenue with the imperial capital parade crowd.

When Noah told me about this, I was also shocked. You must know that Weiyang Lake is also a big lake. Even if you take a magic caravan to run around the lake, it will take at least more than two hours. The parade team If you go around the lake, you probably have to walk at least from morning to night.

After finishing my work in the warehouse, I saw that it was almost dawn. I didn't have time to return to the manor to change clothes, so I took Catalina in a magic caravan and rushed to the lakeside manor.

As the magic caravan drove along Yulin Street towards the lakeside manor, many people from the Imperial City poured into the streets one after another.

Some small vendors who run breakfast spots will naturally not miss such a good opportunity. They sell some fast food on the streets. These breakfast stalls are very popular, and crowds gather in front of the stalls. People in the Imperial City like to eat on burnt white bread. Spread it all over with butter and jam, and then have a thick slice of tender steak. The steak doesn't need to be fried, it just needs to be lightly fried. Coat it with some pepper sauce, and it will even bleed when you take a bite.

I'm not used to breakfast like the Imperial City. I like to spread some applesauce on white bread for breakfast, and I like El City-style sausages and rice cereal.

After the magic caravan drove onto the lakeside road, I discovered that there were some gorgeous magic caravans parked at the gates of the manor houses of the nobles and wealthy families by the lake. I wanted to join the parade during the Harvest Festival celebrations.

Catalina put a blanket over me and let me sleep a little longer before arriving at the lakeside estate.

The magic caravan drove smoothly into the lakeside manor, and finally stopped in front of the steps of the castle. Two silver magic caravans were parked on the garden lawn in front of the castle. The two magic caravans were inlaid with gold patterns and various gorgeous gems on the outside. Hanging on the outer wall is the emblem of the Royal Family of Angelibald, which is a knight's shield and a dragon's head. Pulling the magic caravan are four silver Pegasus.

It was the first time I saw a silver Pegasus with wings on its body. It felt so novel that I couldn’t help but stop and watch as I stepped off the magic caravan.

Except for the pair of huge silver wings on their backs, these silver Pegasus are no different in appearance from the ancient Bolai horses, except that they are three times larger than the ancient Bolai horses. Four silver Pegasus are standing by the fountain, and several The elf-like waiter is standing with the four silver pegasus, with a hint of annoying arrogance on his face, which is somewhat annoying.

After I stepped off the magic caravan, there was a middle-aged housekeeper waiting at the bottom of the steps with a group of maids. After the group of people saluted me, the housekeeper stepped forward and said to me: "Princess Yingli told me, you I’ll take you to her when I get here.”

I nodded to the butler and followed him up the steps. Then I asked the middle-aged butler: "It's my first time to participate in the Harvest Festival celebration. Is there anything I need to do before the celebration starts?"

"First of all, you need to go to Her Royal Highness the Princess's living room to try on the celebration dress. The tailor is waiting there. Next, you probably need to have breakfast with Prince James..." The housekeeper is meticulous about everything. I was told all I had to do that morning, and it sounded as if all I had to do besides eat breakfast was ride in the magic caravan and participate in the parade.

There will also be sacrificial and blessing activities at noon. In the past, His Majesty Pope Philip from the temple would personally preside over the sacrificial and blessing activities, but this year it seems that His Majesty Charles will personally preside over the sacrificial and blessing activities.

In the past, prayers were made to the Statue of Liberty, but this year, His Majesty Charles personally paid tribute to the warriors who died in the Green Empire's plane war in the past few years.

When I heard the news, I couldn't help but be a little stunned. I thought that His Majesty Charles really didn't give the Statue of Liberty any face. The priests and priests in the Temple of Liberty were banned from the temple, and the goddess descended. The oracle strictly prohibited priests and priests from participating in plane wars, causing the Green Empire's army to suffer huge losses.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty Charles skipped praying to the Statue of Liberty during the Harvest Festival celebrations.

I followed the middle-aged butler to the living room of the two princesses Ying Li and Le Die. I walked through the long corridor and spiral staircase to the third floor of the castle. Helena and Becky were already waiting at the top of the stairs to see me. Climb up the ladder and wave to me gently from the top.

When I saw Ying Li, she was sitting in front of the dressing table, with four maids standing around to arrange her exquisite headdress. She was only wearing a tight corset and a thin petticoat. When I saw her, As soon as they walked in the door, their faces turned red with embarrassment. The maid knelt on the carpet and put on a pair of crystal slippers for Ying Li. A gorgeous dress covered with pearls was hanging on a hanger nearby. There were two more of the same style behind the hanger, but they were missing many gorgeous pearls. They should be For Helena and Becky.

I walked into the room, and a tailor hurriedly walked up to me. He held a tape measure and scissors in his hands. He gave me a slight salute and said: "Your Majesty, please try on the dress first. If it doesn't fit, I will correct it right away..." "

Next, I was being manipulated around like a puppet. I thought I was just trying on a dress, but I didn’t expect that there were a full set of clothes including shirts, vests, bow ties, leather boots, etc. After trying on these clothes, I was led into a spacious washroom by the waiter, and a row of maids immediately surrounded me.
