Chapter 474: Transport departure

Netheril’s existing magic system originated from the [Color-resistant Scrolls]. Xia Duo had been greedy for a long time for this mysterious set of scrolls that recorded countless knowledge.
As early as Xia Duo had determined that he had come to Netheril, he had always wanted to see the legendary [Color-resistant Scroll]. In that game on Earth, the description of [Color-resistant Scroll] was also very mysterious.
Some say that they are from the ancient founding races, some are from the ancient kingdom of the elves, and some even say that the goddess of magic participated in the making of the scroll.
But in any case, it is okay to say that Netheril is based on this set of mysterious scrolls.
In the past, [Color-resistant Scrolls] was allowed to be viewed by anyone. Until one of the sets was stolen, it was changed to the current recommended reading system. It must be recommended by multiple archmages, or at least one arcanist, and recommended At least it needs to be a high-level mage.
Or, at least you can become an archmage to get reading permissions on your own, but you only have one chance per year.
One of the visible benefits brought by the title of "Pioneer" is the annual [Color-resistant Scroll] reading permission.
Last year, Xia Duo gave Niya the reading permission. This year he prepared to use it by himself. When Niya came back a few days ago, Xia Duo talked to her about the [Color-resistant Scroll].
Niya told him that it is better to only watch the first group, or even just one. [Color-resistant scroll] not only records knowledge, the scroll itself also has a very special power, and you have to do what you can.
Of course, Chateau was kind, but there was still a small matter that needed to be resolved before going to Seventon.
...
Savile town, port.
Chateau and the presidents of the three chambers of commerce, including Hans, Slavin, and Flashkin, stood on the embankment near the trestle bridge, watching the pier porters constantly moving grain onto the ship.
At the request of Chateau, the three chambers of commerce are preparing to send ships to Seventon to transport the people of Great Summer. Chateau will go to Seventon this time. In addition to seeing the [Color-resistant Scrolls】, he will also apply to the Parliament Xinlingmin, this is the real reward represented by the [Silver Ring Badge].
Among the dozens of trailblazers, only three trailblazers, including Xia Duo, received this reward, which was almost unlimited population support, as long as the territory could support it.
Although it has developed over the years, there are almost no inland areas invaded by the orcs, and the population is somewhat overwhelming, but there should be very few lord who would think that he has too many people.
It can be seen that the princess still paid a lot of price here, and at least reached a compromise with most of the mainland lords.
If this is the case, Xia Duo must make good use of it, or else he will betray the princess's hard work!
Suddenly, Xia Duo took his gaze back from several cargo ships and asked the three presidents around him, "How long is it expected to reach Seventon?"
"Two months—right!"
"Huh?" Xia Duo immediately stared at President Hans who had just responded, "How long will it take?"
Regarding the voyage from Savile to Sevinton, Chateau did not know anything about it. He asked Captain Owen carefully. This old man who had spent most of his life on the boat told him that the river was slow in winter, although there was no smooth flow. The flow is convenient, but it also reduces the trouble of countercurrent.
It is necessary to know that there are many rivers to pass from Savile to Sevinton. At first, the Wolfsburg River was a countercurrent, and then it entered a large lake smoothly for a short time, and then it would flow back into the South Nether River, and finally the North Nether River all the way. North, until it merges into the northernmost narrow sea.
And Seventon is on the narrow sea.
Most of the way to go is countercurrent, but in winter the water flow is gentle, which can save a lot of time. Old Owen told him that it takes about one month to go to Sevinton in winter.
It may be faster when you come back.
"My lord, I promise to arrive in Seventon in one and a half months. If everything goes well, I will be able to return to Daxia in three months." The speaker was the President of the Slavin Chamber of Commerce Massa.
The people in charge can understand that Xia Duo wants insurance, but the superiors only focus on the fastest and most efficient.
Obviously, what can be done in two months must be delayed to three months. It took half the time for nothing. Xia Duo is naturally dissatisfied. "In this way, the time in Seventon does not count. I ask you to The voyage is compressed to less than two months. For every day that is reduced, I will pay 10% more gold coins and use magic items to trade off the price, but in the same way, for every day beyond, I will pay 10% less."
The Seventon parliament organizes the manpower to say that it will take one month, but the exact duration cannot be determined. It may be shorter or longer. This should not be included in the voyage.
This is actually a gambling contract. Although Xia Duo may have to pay a few more gold coins, considering that it is paid with magic items, it is not a loss.
Tilak's research has entered a new stage, and the price of magic items is not far away. Even if Tilak can't wait, Chateau has a new technology for making magic scrolls.
The [transcription technique] obtained from the projection plane can produce semi-finished scrolls in batches, and the time cost will be greatly reduced, which is unknown to the three presidents.
Sure enough, after hearing about Xia Duo's gambling contract, President Fleck of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce immediately patted his chest and agreed. The eyes of the other two presidents also flashed with surprise.
"No matter if you can get it a few days in advance, but remember, stable arrival is the prerequisite, otherwise, you will try my method!"
"Don't dare! Don't dare! We understand!"
Seeing the three people being cautious, Xia Duo suddenly lost interest, and gave a few more words, and handed over the handover document with the lord's mark to the three people, and then directly sent it away.
...
When I returned to Linshui Village and saw the priest of Leiden again, Xia Duo felt very kind~EbookFREE.me~ and talked about the situation of his territory after he left. Of course, it was mainly Leiden said and Xia Duo listened.
The Langasi people of the Kabu tribe are all trying to integrate into the Daxia Ling. Their shaman just died not long ago. It was a time when they lacked faith and lacked the backbone. Daxia Ling took advantage of the vacancy and entered. It is also your wish.
After some conversation, Xia Duo's familiarity with the territory came back again. After all, it was the territory he opened up bit by bit, which could not be forgotten in a year or a half.
It is mid-February. If all goes well, the first batch of leaders from the Mainland will arrive in Linshui Village in two months. Linshui Village must make preparations in advance.
By then, the weather will gradually warm up, and the second phase of Linshui Village may be built ahead of schedule.
The second phase of Linshui Village was planned for Xia Duo early. It was originally planned to wait for the population to develop to a certain level before implementation. Unexpectedly, the [Silver Ring Badge] would also have population attached. This immediately allowed Linshui Village to develop in a big way. The way is up.
"I have to go out again, and come back in about three days. You ask someone to prepare some soft wood and cut it into pieces. It will be useful when I come back."
Xia Duo is ready to make paper. Parchment paper can be used to make scrolls. It is a waste of general writing. Moreover, you can make as much paper as you want. There will be no shortage of paper when you want to copy books on the projection plane. Up.
He can fill the entire space at any time, even though it is impossible to copy the entire library.
Although Leiden was curious about the use of Xia Duo's request for wood chips, the lord did not say, and he would not ask. What Xia Duo was most satisfied with was Leiden's ability to obey orders.
After clarifying some details, Xia Duo returned to the Tower of Time. With the help of the teleportation circle here, he could quickly reach Seventon.
