Chapter 46: Manor One

　　 These two days Stephen has been busy with common things.
　　 He listened to the opinion of the Countess Elijah. Even if the decision was made to establish a chamber of commerce, the management of the chamber of commerce was the Countess, not only for the purpose of making money, but also responsible for assisting him in acquiring various resources. The winery's progress is very fast. The Norrington family already has one. The first batch of high-alcohol wine is sold in about a week. This shochu is not necessarily easy to sell in the south, but in the cold north, there is no need to worry about sales. . Basically, all places that have a high demand for alcohol have a cold climate, such as Maozi Maozi and Maozi.
　　Rinfeng City is a place where north and south meet, and the developed trade road is unobstructed. From here, it is convenient for Stephen to obtain basic materials.
　　………………
　　The old Earl of Sutton is fast.
　　Just as Steven had completed the prototype of the chamber of commerce, the old count had come with a pile of boxes.
　　The formal formation of the Chamber of Commerce also needs to wait for some relatives of the Countess Eliya to arrive. Her family has a good network in the south, which can quickly help the Chamber of Commerce to open the market. It will take a month for Stephen to complete the Wizard Tower completely. At that time, the mining area will provide him with supplies of silver, iron, lead, mysterious silver and so on.
　　 "Your Excellency Stephen."
　　The appearance of the old count was worse than the previous few days. He looked like an old man in his seventies or eighties. He leaned over slightly and opened the box and said, "The things you want are here."
　　 300 pounds of silver, 100 pounds of gold.
　　After Stephen got rid of the Earl of Keaton, the old Earl of Sutton occupied the mansion for the first time, and naturally also made a large sum of money in the private collection. But now all of this money is placed in front of Stephen, and Old Earl Sutton has also taken out many gems from the family's collection. Many of the more than twenty gems with good texture are directly deducted from the jewelry. The weight of the diamond also meets Stephen's requirements. In order to make up for this size of diamonds, Old Earl Sutton even took down a diamond necklace left by his mother. After all, Countess Elijah also carried one of the family treasures.
　　 One by one gold bars were placed neatly in front of eyes.
　　Steve picked up a gold bar and swept it, then put it down, and the silver was basically no need to watch. There are not many silver mines in Howling City.
There are twenty-two gems of various colors, most of which are rubies and yellow gems. Five diamonds, two are large, and three are relatively small. It can be seen that the old Earl of Sutton spent a lot of energy in order to make up these. . Finally, there was a sealed box. Stephen picked up and sniffed, and said softly, "Dragon?"
　　 "Not bad. Barely available."
　　Now that the materials have been collected, Stephen claps his hands and says: "Very good. Be prepared to act."
　　 "I need some strong-willed soldiers to come with me. At least have the strength of a knight or more, you can cover me when necessary."
　　Any spellcaster needs cannon fodder.
　　Steven though 90% of the grasp can solve evil spirits, but it is obviously safer to move with cannon fodder.
　　………………
　　 Jinxi Manor.
　　In just a week or two, this once lively manor was completely deserted.
The servants basically died and fled, and the old Earl of Sutton secretly sent people to investigate. It was better during the day, and it was a ghost at night. Five people went in and only one person came out alive, and the spirit was a little bit out of touch. Normal.
　　 These days.
　　 roughly after the death of the Bernard housekeeper, the vegetation in the manor grew wild, mainly a plant called ‘Datura’. There is no mandala planted in the Jinxi Manor, but now it has grown everywhere. Most of the original plants are dead and withered. Only the clusters of mandala grow very vigorous and bright.
　　 Mandala is poisonous.
　　Although it is beautiful and enchanting, it can also purify the air, but Datura is a poisonous plant, and it is a highly toxic plant. It can also cause cancer, and the floral fragrance of Datura has a hallucinogenic effect.
　　 This kind of plant alchemist is very familiar, because many potions will use mandala flowers, and its hallucinogenic effect is very popular in the underground black market.
　　"Psionic Eye!"
In Stephen's field of vision, the entire Jinxi Manor was enveloped by a gray mist, and the gray mist surrounded everything, and a faint glimmer of light could be seen vaguely, and the black gas visible to the naked eye was inside the manor Hovering, as if it were a twisted human shadow.
　　 This is not the sight of the spirit world.
　　Stephen has basically determined that this world does not have a spiritual world, but has another parasitic eccentric plane.
　　The pollen of the mandala has already filled the interior of the manor, and the whole environment is enough to make people psychedelic. No wonder that only one person who enters is alive, and the spirit is no longer normal.
　　 "It looks like a little preparation is needed."
　　Steven clapped his palm, took out a gold bar, and then said to the old Earl Sutton, who was a little panicky and nervous, "I need two apples. Now send someone to find me."
What?
　　Apple...Apple? ...
Hearing Stephen’s words, Old Earl Sutton was obviously stunned. He thought that the wizards needed all kinds of weird materials, such as human organs, exotic flowers, rare ores, etc., but nothing happened. Thinking of what Stephen needed was an ordinary apple.
　　 "Send someone immediately to find a basket of apples." Old Earl Sutton quickly commanded towards the person behind him.
Stephen made a circle around the manor, then arranged a circle on the flat ground on the side. He took out a silver ingot and kneaded it in his hand. Soon the silver was soft as mud. He drew a six-pointed star circle on the ground with his toes. Then, silver was injected into the circle like a liquid. The old Earl of Sutton, who was standing behind, watched all this with amazement~EbookFREE.me~ The aboriginal knights accompanying him were also surprised. Many of them also saw the mysterious wizard for the first time.
　　 quickly.
　　 Then someone brought the apple over.
Stephen picked two red and big ones and put them in the center of the circle. Then he took out a gold bar and drew his sword to cut off. A small piece of gold was distributed in the six corners of the circle, followed by the incredible A scene appeared. Under the faint white light, gold automatically melted into a golden liquid and penetrated into the magic circle. Then the apple placed in the center of the six-pointed star array gradually became golden.
　　 Finally, an apple that looks pure gold was born.
　　Stephen picked up the apple and weighed it. He smiled with satisfaction and threw it to the knight next to him. These people were the cannon fodder that went in with him later.
　　 "One person eats half."
　　Steven cut the apple with a sword, and then said: "Don't worry. This is a golden apple unique to my family, a very powerful alchemy prop."
A knight standing next to it hesitated a bit, and then bite it up, the taste was choppy and crisp, and then he took a bite to express his joy. After three, five, two, and even the cores were swallowed, it looked like Sutton next to it. The old count couldn't help swallowing.
　　 "This!... incredible!...I feel full of vitality now!..." The knight who ate the golden apple first couldn't help but be surprised.
　　Steven smiled and said seriously: "The duration of Golden Apple is one hour."
　　 "Now you go in with me."
　　 The golden apple just made is nothing more than a manifestation. The real golden apple has the magical power that gives people unlimited vitality.

　　 (PS: The whole plant of Datura flower is poisonous, the seeds are the most poisonous.)
