Gold is Justice

But this is also good, being able to talk to each other is better than entering a cold war without saying anything.

After ordering three bowls of rock sugar water, Airl began to review the cloths he had just bought while mediating between the two mages.I don’t know how Margaux’s so-called ability to make clothes means how to make clothes... I hope it’s not the kind that cuts the cloth in half and sticks it back and forth.

While chatting, Airl saw the mayor of Pelican rushing towards him from a distance.

Round Cheese panted heavily, and after rushing into the shed of the herbal tea shop, she immediately lay down on the seat looking out of breath.

But just a minute later, the mayor stood up with a flushed face, and was about to hold Airl's hand when he came up.

Unfortunately, Airl quickly withdrew his hand, leaving him empty.

"President Airl! Song of the Mermaid! Great! You... you really are! Great! Do you know? I almost... I can hardly believe it! You said you solved the monster in Schwanstein Castle! Then Monster! That monster is dead! Then we will be safe! Our town will be safe too!!!”

Chapter 320 New Things

Airl nodded, and said with a smile: "This is the business of our mermaid song. Have you passed this news to Viscount Rich?"

Round Cheese nodded vigorously: "Yes! I told you immediately after receiving the news, and I just came back this morning! I believe that Viscount Rich will come to your guild to thank you in a short time, right? At the same time, Swan Castle's Renovation will start again!"

The mayor's face was full of joy: "Oh, if our town is successfully transformed into a city, then Swan Castle is the nearest castle near our town, then this viscount will become our The lord? Hahaha! Letting this guy be the lord is better than letting Viscount Norris manage us! That guy is easy to deal with! Hahaha!"

Accidentally said what was in his heart, Airl could only smile.After the mayor was happy enough, he pointed to Margo who was drinking rock sugar water next to him, and said with a smile: "Mayor, this is a new member of our guild. This time, we can successfully eliminate that monster, Mago Miss Song has contributed a lot."

Round Cheese noticed Margaux next to him, but then he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This one? Isn't this the one who came with Earl Ruiying...?"

Apparently, Round Cheese wanted to say the word "mistress," but he managed to brake just in time to keep it from coming out.

Airl didn't intend to make him think too much, and said with a smile: "So, who do you think this member of mine is?"

Round Cheese's eyes fell on Margo's face, looking at her half-white and half-black hair, and the staff of light in her hand.After a moment of silence, he finally made a decision: "I understand, so Miss Margaux is a nun from the Holy See of Light hosted by Earl Ruiying! Then I understand! Oh, ah, the successor to the High Priest of the Holy Cake is really amazing, So easy to deal with that monster... Huh! Sister Margaux, really... thank you so much!"

Margo couldn't laugh or cry about this name, but she saw that Arrow didn't seem to want to deny it, so she could only deny it herself, and said: "What you said is too exaggerated, I am not a nun. Besides... I have always I heard you talking about the high priest, what kind of person is this high priest?"

Saying so, Margo unconsciously clenched the staff in her hand.

When talking about the former High Priest of Light, Round Cheese, Airl, and Coco all showed a little sadness on their faces.

The mayor sighed, and said slowly: "The high priest is really a good person... I have never seen such a good person. He treats the children very well and helps us patiently. Even with such a noble status as the high priest, he never puts on airs. As long as I stay by his side, I seem to be able to feel a warm feeling... It's a pity..." Seeing the current atmosphere Gradually turning to heavy, Arrow smiled and said: "But in general, we have now avenged Uncle Sanctuary. Swan Castle has returned to normal, and the danger of the entire Pelican Town has been eliminated! This is A great thing."

Coco also had a very sad expression at first, but after hearing what Airl said, she nodded her head and said, "Yes, I believe that if the soul of Uncle Saint Cake knew it, it would also be happy for us... Uncle Holy Cake..."

It's fine to say that Round Cheese and Airl miss that sanctuary, but what makes Margo somewhat confused is that this Necromancer also misses that Priest of Light?This is really a bit strange.

Ai Luo smiled and continued: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things. Our respected mayor, how is your discussion with the sugar-coated liquor owner? Now I think the town has begun to enter the preliminary stage. Construction work. Is there anything I need to pay attention to, or need my help?"

After chatting for a long time, Yuan Cheese remembered the most important thing and didn't say anything. He nodded quickly and said with a smile: "Of course! With that initial capital, our Pelican Town is not far from being developed! If we say Or President Airl, you have the foresight and asked me to build the road first! Isn’t that right? Our road from Pelican Town to Kingfisher Town and Honglu Town, as well as to Lagoon City, has entered the repair stage. By then we will be on this road It will not be so bumpy when running a horse-drawn carriage, and the speed can be a little faster!"

Airl nodded, and said with a smile: "Road construction is indeed important. In addition, what about the installation of those element lights on both sides of the road that I proposed?"

As soon as this elemental lamp was mentioned, Round Cheese showed a somewhat regretful expression on his face.He smiled apologetically at Ai Luo, and said, "I said... President Ai Luo. Is the elemental lamp really safe? I heard that there are fire elves in this thing! What if these fire elves go berserk?" , isn’t our Pelican Town a sea of ​​flames?”

Airl frowned slightly: "What does this mean? Don't you want to pretend?"

Round Cheese continued to laugh: "Look, our town has been using oil lamps for hundreds of years! Now suddenly there is a thing like elemental lamps. I heard that this kind of thing is only popular in the capital. Got it? It’s expensive, and it looks dangerous. After all, so many fire magic elements are used! This, this... I discussed it with the mayors of Kingfisher Town and Honglu Town. The mayors of those two small towns are not very willing to install this kind of thing in their guilds. And even if they installed it, we would have to customize a special... elemental machine to provide elements, right? That thing It seems to be more dangerous, I just recently heard that there was an elemental explosion in the capital, and several people died!"

Arrow didn't mind what Round Cheese said.He thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Is this news from Xiehu City?"

Round Cheese smiled: "Where can this come from? Of course it is Lagoon City!"

Airl: "Then mayor, have you ever thought that these news about the explosion of the elemental machine will not spread sooner or later, but when we want to unite three small towns and one city to develop an elemental machine, this The news came out suddenly? Why is this?"

Round Cheese tilted his head and thought for a while, looking a little confused: "This...why?"

Airl didn't answer directly, but continued to ask with a smile: "If the element machine and the element lamp are very safe things and they become popular, whose interests will be damaged?"

Round Cheese widened his eyes and opened his mouth, unable to answer for a while.

Ke Ke at the side drank a bowl of rock sugar water, felt a little refreshed, and immediately said: "You are so stupid, you don't know this? You really followed our president brother for so long for nothing."

Margot would not let go of such an opportunity to suppress this little girl's arrogance, and immediately followed up: "Oh? So our little necromancer knows? Tell me?"

Ke Ke's face turned red all of a sudden, she puffed her cheeks, and after a moment of silence, she turned her head abruptly, showing a look of pleading for support at Airl.

Airl smiled involuntarily. He looked at Coco, then at the round cheese beside him, and finally fixed his eyes on Margot: "So, do you know?"

Margaux snorted, slightly raised the staff of light in her hand, and lowered it slightly as if to show her status, and said, "Is there any need to say that? The first to be impacted must be the sale of lamp oil and the making of lanterns. Those merchants and manufacturers of oil lamps and lamps. Once the promotion of element machines is realized, it means that they will have a large amount of inventory that will be unsalable in an instant, and will suddenly turn from profitable gadgets to roadside garbage. If you think about it a little deeper, If this kind of goods has been placed in the warehouse, then as time goes by, the storage cost will definitely increase significantly. Under such circumstances, it is a hell of a person to spread the benefits of element machines and element lamps. "

Hearing Margot's eloquence now, Ke Ke was a little unconvinced, but when she turned her head to look at Ai Luo, she saw her president smiling and nodding slightly: "Sure enough. Listen to your tone , You don’t seem to be very unfamiliar with such things as elemental machines?” Margaux sneered: “I saw someone come to sell this kind of thing in Tianhe City before. The one that uses the power of waterfalls to generate heat energy was designed at that time A water elemental machine. However, that earl controlled more than half of the lamp oil supply system in the entire city at that time, so building such a water elemental machine is considered the greatest limit."

Airl was still smiling, and this always smiling expression made a Margot who was always talking feel a little shivering down the spine, and his whole body was chilling: "You...why do you keep looking at me? I know You are smart, if I am wrong, you can just point it out, there is no need to look at people so gloomyly."

"Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to laugh at you." Ai Luo quickly retracted his gaze, and said with a smile, "Then what do you think? Are the element machines and element lamps easy to use? They are more dangerous , or is it more harmful?"

Margaux thought for a while, and finally shook her head slightly: "I don't know. After all, this thing is a novelty. If it can be fully applied in the capital, I believe it will be spread throughout the country in a short time. But looking at it now It doesn’t appear to be a trend yet.”

Arrow was not surprised by this answer; everything progressive encounters strong opposition from reactionary forces at the outset.Because those reactionary forces are usually in high positions, people with a lot of money and status.The emergence of new things is very likely to threaten their status, and of course it is impossible to make this kind of thing bigger.

But as long as enough time is given, new and progressive things will slowly gain the upper hand.And those opponents will slowly become welcomers, scrambling to accept this new thing.

The only question now is...

Chapter 320 A Small Commission

Arrow turned to Round Cheese: "So, you still can't decide to build an Elemental Lamp?"

Seeing Airl's serious look now, Round Cheese had a slightly embarrassed expression on his face.He rubbed his hands, and said with a little nervousness: "President Ai Luo, you...you can't force me, can you? Kingfisher Town and Honglu Town really..."

"I'm not talking about those two small towns, but simply talking about our Pelican Town. If we just place elemental lights at the entrance and exit of our Pelican Town and some places close to it, then there will be no problem? We You can choose road sections that are relatively open in those areas, so you don’t have to worry about the explosion of the fire element inside.”

Hearing what Airl said, Round Cheese had no reason to refuse.He thought for a while, and then said: "So... what about the elemental machine? I heard that this thing is powerful and noisy. Where is the best place to set it up?"

Airl thought for a while and said with a smile: "The hidden lake, this place is not bad. There are no fish in it, and if the elemental machine really explodes out of control, it will not be able to cause much storm in the lake."

Now that Airl has thought about everything before and after, it would be too much to continue to deny it at this time.

There was also a relaxed expression on Round Cheese's face, he nodded and said: "Phew...Since you have said that, President Airol, okay! All along, there is nothing wrong with what you said, so this time I will Believe in you again! Sigh...it's just that this elemental machine costs a lot of money."

Arrow just smiled at this.

For a tourist city, there is actually no need for Arrow to install an element machine.

But fundamentally, Arrow never intended to make Pelican Town a tourist city.

Indeed, the scenery here is beautiful and remote.

But from an economic point of view, once a city loses its real economy and all sources of funds rely on the service industry and tourism of external liquidity, it will lead to a very dire consequence.

That is the economic bubble.

After contacting the sugar-coated wine old man a few times, Ai Luo felt that this old man in his 60s should not be such a thoughtful person.Maybe it's just a family with a small business, so I want to invest in a picturesque place to add some good fortune to my reputation.But if Pelican Town really loses all of its real economy, once the bubble pops up, it won't be easily resolved.

This is also the reason why Airl insists that there must be an elemental machine.

With the elemental machine, this new thing has the possibility of resuming industry or agriculture in Pelican Town after it has developed into a city.It can be regarded as adding an insurance policy to this small town.

After chatting for a while, the sun hanging in mid-air finally seemed a little gentler.

Round Cheese drank the rock sugar water in front of him, and stood up: "Okay! I still need to contact various merchants for a meeting to discuss some infrastructure construction. Then President Airl, after the time for the next town meeting is set, I will I'll let you know again, see you then!"

Arrow smiled and got up to see the mayor off.

After sitting down again, his eyes fell on Margo's face staring at him.He smiled and said, "Now is your turn to stare at me?"

Margo waved her hand and snorted, "The mayor of Pelican Town looks like your subordinate. Sooner or later, this town will be in your pocket, right? To be honest, I'm starting to feel a little glad that I joined Song of the Mermaid."

Obviously, the girl had some kind of misunderstanding about Airl.

As the president, it is of course necessary for Airl to let the girl clear up the misunderstanding: "You think too much. In terms of economic construction, maybe I am indeed a hundred times better than this mayor. But as long as I get in touch with him After a long time, you will know that the one who can command the entire Pelican Town and become the mayor of Pelican City in the future must be Mr. Round Cheese. After all, there are some things that I can't do without him. "

"Really?" Margo expressed deep doubts about this. "In the past several times when your town encountered problems or dangers, you helped solve them all, right? This fat man who looks confused is more powerful than you?"

At the same time, her defiant personality needs to be corrected.

"Margo, you seem to have misunderstood one thing."

"Not everyone is stupid, and not everyone who looks like you can hold it in the palm of your hand is not wise."

Airl tapped his head lightly——

"When we think that someone is stupid, it may just be because the dimension of the other person's thinking about things is not on the same line as ours. In the same way, in the eyes of the other person, our thinking has not reached agreement with the other person. So It’s not that we think the other person is a fool and the other person is a fool, it’s just that we have differences because of different observation directions of the same thing.”

"So, don't underestimate anyone, respect everyone, and don't make enemies indiscriminately. This is our way of life in Mermaid Song."

Hearing Airl babbling a lot like this, Margot seemed a little helpless, sneaked up to Coco who was drinking water, and whispered: "Does he always like to give lectures so much?"

Coco gave her a blank look: "If you stay for a long time, you will get used to it."

After drinking tea, shopping and shopping, the three of them set off to return to the guild.

There is nothing more than wandering around along the way. After all, there are still some things to see in Pelican Town, which has begun to expand.

When the sun was setting, the three of them were walking on the road, holding small snacks in their hands, and walking unsteadily.This feeling made Airl feel completely relaxed.

When was the last time I walked with my girlfriends so relaxed and happy?

With the flush of the setting sun reflected on his face, Airl smiled as he walked, and at the same time felt deeply in his heart.

When I was in school, I was busy studying. When I think about it carefully, I really didn’t make many good friends and girlfriends when I was in Lao Tengshu.Naturally, there will be no such relaxing and happy time.

Although the two girls see themselves as a boy now, Arrow feels that as long as he can be with them, and then go shopping together like this, and rest.This already exhausting guild life will become a little bit more relaxed and happy.

Such a beautiful day, I really hope it can continue like this...

Ah, no.

After all, I still have a lot of money to make.

For example, the person staying in the guild hall now should be able to bring himself a large harvest of money!

Pushing open the door, one could see Brad and Cream sitting and chatting in the rest area at a glance.The two big men stood up when they saw Airl walk in, smiling.

And Ai Luo followed the eyes of these two guys, and saw a man who was also waiting in the rest area.After seeing Airl, the man seemed to see some savior, his face was full of excitement.

"President Airl!"

The young man bounced off his seat as if his ass was on fire, and rushed towards Airl.

And seeing this guy's expression now, Airl had a premonition that he was about to make a fortune.

Ai Luo knew this young man in his 20s. Although he and his father lived in a small town, they ran a nearby farm.On weekdays, they would also hire Song of the Mermaid to help in the farmland, so he could be considered a regular customer.

"Hey! Shy little brother, is there any work that needs to be entrusted today?"
