Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 12 The First Pot of Gold

She was turned away by three tailor-made tailors in a row. Lucian was very depressed. Even if he took the black yarn into it from the beginning, the tailors still refused to believe it and were unwilling to identify what kind of yarn it belongs to. , Full of deep vigilance against strangers like Lucien.

This market area is very large, and there are more than ten streets in total. People come and go, and often see aliens such as dwarves and elves. It is very prosperous, so Lucien quickly found an elegant and clean one at the end of the street. Tailor shop.

Behind the counter was a 15- to 16-year-old blond boy with a shy and green smile: "Master is making clothes in the back. My name is Banster. What do you need, guest?"

"Can you help me see this piece of black yarn?" Lucien learned the lesson and asked the black yarn roundabout.

Banster thought Lucian was going to pick a similar black gauze, and took it without doubt, rubbing it with his fingers, looking at the sunlight, his expression became more and more surprised: "Guest, this is Holm Kingdom's 'Black Nightingale' ', The black gauze that only the real nobles can afford, where did you get it from?'

Like other tailors, he showed vigilance and worry. Lucian, wearing a worn linen jacket, would certainly not be able to afford the "black nightingale", even many rich men could not afford it. Suspicious.

Lucien saw the same reaction from everyone, and simply lowered her voice: "Relax, it will definitely not cause you trouble."

"Really?" A 30-year-old man with a long face came out of the back of the shop. He was the owner of the tailor shop, Madall. Before, Banster was disturbed by the surprise and did not control his voice. , So when he came out to check, he just heard Lucien's explanation.

Didn't you drive me away?Lucien saw that there was finally a good interaction and could not help raising expectations and a little excitement: "I swear in the name of the Lord, and, you see, it has already broken holes, there is no noble lady, The lady will also care about it, as long as you turn it into a lace or streamer of a skirt, no one will ever know what it was originally. "

Mador took the black gauze from Banster and looked at it carefully. After being silent for a while, he said quietly: "How much do you want?"

Lucien was excited inside, clenched her fists tightly, and almost waved, but the experience of the red-eyed mouse kept Lucien's appearance calm and looked at Mador and smiled: "I believe you will not let me down, sir . "

Madol stared at Lucien's eyes for a few seconds, seeing that he was not eager, and said softly: "Forty copper fairs, it's only so big, and it has holes, it can't be used much."

"A silver narrative, a gorgeous long dress, if embellished with a deep and beautiful 'black nightingale' like the night sky, it will definitely be more perfect and more suitable for distinguished ladies and husbands." , Bargaining according to the principle of doubling.

Mador shook his head and returned the black yarn to Lucien: "Up to fifty copper fairs, if not, you will take it away."

"That's a pity." Lucian took the black gauze calmly and turned to walk outside. In fact, her heart was full of tension and contradiction. Will it stop me?Will it increase the price?If you miss this store, you may not be able to find someone who is willing to buy goods of unknown origin!

One step, two steps, three steps ... Lucien saw that she was about to walk out of the tailor's shop, and the voice of Mador at the back finally sounded: "Eighty copper fairies, if not just a long dress is very suitable for black nightingale As a lace, I will never pay such a high price. "

Nice job!Lucien, with her back to Mador, threw her right hand fist in excitement and excitement, then turned around and smiled blandly: "As you wish."

Eighty tinkering copper coins were packed in Lucien's pocket, making them bulging and very cumbersome, but Lucien felt they were indescribably cute.

Madall stopped Lucien again before he left: "I don't know you, and I don't want to know your name, but in the future, if there is such a precious fabric and you won't cause trouble, you can Consider me coming here. "

"That's my honor." Lucien was in a good mood, so she bowed slightly with a smile.

Out of the tailor shop in Mador, Lucien found that the sky was so blue, the sun was so bright, the air was so fresh, everything was so beautiful.

Eighty Copper Fair said not much, not much. In addition to bringing Lucien closer to the five silver narratives, it also proved that Lucien ’s method of collecting tattered and profitable money worked. Say, this is the most important!

…………

"Brother Lucien, you are finally back. My brother has arrived home. My mother told me to invite you to dinner."

Lucian walked not far from her house, and saw Aven standing in front of her house. At the same time, Aven found Lucien and waved happily.

"The eldest son of Aunt Eliza's house? That young man who has become an apprentice of the knight of the trainee?" Lucien remembered about Brother Elvin, and then smiled at Elvin: "Wait a minute, I'll wipe Khan. "The ninety-two copper fairs on his body could not be seen by Aiwen. God knows if he will speak out with a big mouth. After he has collected the tuition for five silver coins, there will be no problems. Lucien believes he will never do this forever.

Ai Wen replied with a grin: "Okay, Brother Lucien. By the way, my brother brought back a piece of wild beef. They were trained by knights and hunted in the wild some time ago. Sir Wien gave it to everyone fairly. . "

"It's finally possible to eat beef stew with potatoes. Since my brother was picked up by Sir Wien and went to the manor for training, I have eaten less than twenty times in these two years!"

His dirty face was irresistible yearning and greedy.

Joel is a good kind among street performers. Although the income is good and bad, it is much better than those who simply work hard and work hard. In addition, Elisa has been doing laundry chores for textile guilds, so they The income of the family is actually close to the civilian level, but for John's exercise before, there was little stingy in food, which has been very difficult, and even occasionally asked old Evans to help.

After John was successfully selected by Sir Wien, without worrying about them, Alisa began to plan for Aven's future life, but the result was worse than before.

Regarding this, Lucien, who does not know much about the world, is not surprised, but thinks that the poor people can eat beef once a month, which is very good.

Hidden Tong Feier, wiped away sweat, and Lucian followed Aven to Aunt Eliza's house.

Outside Aunt Eliza's house, there was a group of Lucien's very familiar neighbors, who discussed enthusiastically:

"I heard that Little John has become the official knight attendant of Sir Wien?"

"Elisa said in person, she would not lie!"

"A formal knight servant under the age of nineteen, little John may really be able to stimulate blood power, gain divine grace, and become a true knight."

"Huh, you can't call Little John anymore, you have to call Lord John, Master John."

"Now you can't bark, the official knight servant, but qualified to become a city guard officer!"

"Joel and Alyssa are so lucky that they will have a better life in the future!"

Lucian looked at Aven with doubt, and Aven nodded heavily, a glorious look.

Entering the house, Lucien saw a blond-brown-eyed young man stand up from the chair, inheriting Joel's young look from John, tall and handsome, but Lucien's most direct impression was He has a calm and restrained temperament.

"I heard that something happened to you, but I am worried, but it seems that there is no big problem, um, so I can rest assured." John smiled and patted Lucien's shoulder. An accident should be the test of the Lord on you. "

In a gray knight suit, he looked very slender, and to Lucien, he was completely a mature brother, although he was only a year or two older.

Lucien replied with a smile: "I didn't have a serious illness. Aunt Alisa was too worried, so she was a little nervous."

Ai Wen echoed and said: "That is, that is, my mother does not believe me at all."

John smiled and patted Irving's head: "Go wash your face and prepare for dinner."

When Ivan left, John smiled gently and motioned for Lucien to sit down: "Why, I haven't seen it in a long time and become rusty? Lucien, we are good friends who grew up together."

"It's a bit uncomfortable, uh, I didn't expect you to change so much." Lucien casually found reasons.

John nodded seriously: "Knight training is not only physical training, but also behavioral and spiritual training. It is very hard and the harvest is very great."

After casually talking about John's training in the Wien Knight Manor, Alissa greeted Lucien for dinner.

At the dinner table, there were only potatoes stewed beef and grilled fish, but Lucien, who had eaten dark bread for a day, was very delicious, almost eating his tongue, and Joel got an exception from Alisa because of the joy of John becoming an official knight servant Allow to eat beef and drink ale with satisfaction.

Throughout the dinner, Alisa babbled happily and kept talking, and Joel, Lucien, and Aven, who were looking for food or wine, responded to her only occasionally, which made her very satisfied, while John was Follow the Cavaliers' Code and be silent during meals.

"Hiccup ~" In Ai Wen's long burp, the dinner ended.

John shook his head with a smile: "Ivan, excessive satiety is bad for the body, don't do this in the future."

Then he turned to look at Lucien: "Lucien, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?"

For this question, whether it is Joel or Alisa, he looked at Lucien solemnly.

Lucien replied cautiously: "There is no definite goal, but I don't want to be like this now."

"Very well, dissatisfaction with life is the force to move forward." John nodded in satisfaction. "The bakery and brewery in Sir Wien's manor recently lacked manpower and wanted to recruit a few apprentices. Living in the manor, Lucien, think about it, and when I come back on Monday, tell me the answer. "

After becoming a formal knight servant, John has the ability to change the lives of his family and friends. Although meager, he is very important.

In this world, the myth of seven days of creation is also circulated, so worship every seven days, that is, one week.

"Okay, John." Lucien just earned the first pot of gold in her life. She has a more long-term and better plan for the future. She didn't think about selling for ten years in the past, but it is too strange to refuse directly, which is not in line with her current. Living conditions, so I plan to refuse after a few days until next week.

John stood up: "Well, since Lucien you're fine, then I have to go back to Sir Wayne's manor before the city gate closes." Then he hugged Joel, Alisa, and Aven in turn, Finally, Lucien gave him a big hug, "Unfortunately, Lucien, you are illiterate, otherwise Donny Butler just lacks a clerk to help him deal with the affairs of the village court, which is a well-paid and decent job."

"I just want to learn writing." Lucien said on the occasion.

John froze for a moment, then smiled: "Our Lucien is very ambitious, um, I will help you find a way to see if I can find an opportunity, but I may not have much hope, or it will take a short time. , You have to be prepared. "

"Thank you, John." Lucien didn't pin her hopes on John, he was sure of the way in his own hands.

…………

For three days in a row, although no such valuable thing as the "Black Nightingale" was found, Lucien's deposit already had a full silver and sixty-four copper fairs, so he walked out of the city gate with great energy .

Andrea looked at Lucien's back and said strangely to Mag: "Why does this boy go outside the city every morning?"

"Andre, what are you talking about?" There was a kind voice behind Andre.

Andre looked serious, and quickly turned back: "Good morning, Brother Jackson."

Leodos Jackson, the leader of the Aaron gang, has a very ordinary face, looks friendly and humble, but if someone is cheated by his appearance, then the end will be very miserable, no matter whether it is sinister and cunning, or Sharp and cruel, he was among the best in the Aaron gang.
