Chapter 567: The Mother of Desire and the Eagle Guard

On the other hand, Lara also reported some of the business difficulties she had foreseen.
‘ When I bought this batch of Underwater Breathing Potions, it had already caused the price of Underwater Breathing Potions in Condor City to rise.
“In addition, the Naga’s civil war is not over yet. In the next period of time, the Underwater Breathing Potion on the Gold Coast will be in short supply. Unless we can find a more stable supply, the cost of purchasing it will probably increase exponentially.”
Matthew nodded.
This was the dilemma of the second-hand dealers. It was easy to make a quick profit in the early stages, but the difficulty was how to maintain this profit efficiency.
Of course, Matthew was well prepared for this.
In terms of demand, he planned to advertise in Jiliu City, Jade Court, Baiyan City, and even Deep Blue Harbor.
Especially on the East Coast, where the demand for high-quality Underwater Breathing Potions was higher.
As long as his reputation was spread, he naturally did not have to worry about a stable source of customers.
As for purchasing, Matthew only planned to let Lara travel to a few more cities on the Gold Coast to make up for it.
If he wanted to solve the problem at the root, he would have to go to the Gold Coast again and seek deep cooperation with the Naga.
However, doing business was not his main business.
It was good enough to ensure that the Oak Chamber of Commerce would continue to operate healthily and provide a certain amount of financial security for his planting business.
What was more important to him now was to study and plant trees.
He looked at the numbers that kept surging on the account.
Matthew suddenly felt a little emotional.
In three months at most, the number will exceed 200,000. I wonder what Lumiere will think when he sees this.
“I wonder where he is now. I hope he won’t be tricked into mining again.”
After a preliminary count of the goods and cash.
Matthew asked Lara to rest.
He had arranged a long holiday for Lara. The market needed time to digest these high-level magic items, and people needed time to rest.
Matthew didn’t intend to use Lara as a donkey.
Three to four trips a year was her limit.
The only thing that made Matthew feel a little awkward was that…
Lara returned late at night and had to live in a house in the town. The cemetery was too crowded.
Even though Lara had no objections.
Matthew also felt that it was time to expand the cemetery for the second time!
After a short two to three hours of rest.
Early the next morning.
Matthew made a sleepy trip to the Cauldron House.
Then, he was teleported to Soria’s crystal palace.
The result disappointed him.
Outside the crystal palace, he was rejected.
It seemed that Soria was not exaggerating before. A Holy Mage was indeed not someone who could be seen just because one wanted to.
Matthew had wanted to use the repayment as an excuse to see Soria and ask about Margaret’s situation, but it seemed impossible now.
When he suggested that he wanted to get more spell constructs installed, he was shocked.
The cat in charge of reception told him coldly,
Prepare more than a million gold coins. I’ll make an appointment for you then. ”
Matthew could only leave silently.
However, on the way back to the Cauldron House, Matthew received a piece of good news.
David, the mechanical dwarf, told him that the second batch of mages would arrive in Rolling Stone Town at the end of August.
At that time, he would be able to earn a huge sum of money.
But at the same time, this also meant that the official launch of the S-level project that Matthew used to paint a big picture was getting closer and closer.
In order to completely resolve the cancer of the Scar of the Dead.
Matthew had to work hard to improve his own strength while also taking into account his professional research.
This made Matthew’s burden heavier.
In the following period of time.
Matthew’s three daily tasks had been upgraded to six daily tasks. The new items were:
Corpse chasing;
Basic training (including learning spells);
Further research on the Scar of the Dead;
Other than that.
Matthew also had two major events on his July calendar. The first was the ‘ Potato Dog Fighting Competition ” on July 17th.
This was the only traditional event held in Rolling Stone Town during the summer.
As the name implied.
The activity was dog fighting.
Any family with a fierce dog in Rolling Stone Town could sign up.
This event got its name because the winner of the first dog fighting competition was rewarded with a cart of potatoes.
The rewards for the winners of the next few years became more and more generous.
Other than the indispensable potatoes.
The City Hall would also make trophies and give out bonuses.
Matthew didn’t want to participate in the dog fighting competition.
It was Rheagar who placed the annual award ceremony for Rolling Stone Town’s outstanding citizen before the dog fighting competition.
It was just that in the past few years, there had been no truly outstanding citizens in Rolling Stone Town.
This year was different.
Matthew would be the first person to receive this award since its establishment.
In fact, this segment was also to dispel the rumours and all kinds of rigid impressions of Matthew among the residents.
Matthew naturally couldn’t neglect it.
At the very least, he had to make the residents feel at ease.
The other thing happened in late July.
That was the time when the heat was the most unbearable.
Rolling Stone Town was about to welcome Sif’s sixteenth birthday, which was also her coming-of-age ceremony.
As for Sif’s birthday present, he had to make a decision.
Matthew had been having a headache recently.
A series of small things were written densely on the calendar, and Matthew’s days were naturally very fulfilling.
Time passed like flowing water.
In mid-July, the entire Rolling Stone Town seemed to be placed on top of an oven. The oak trees were curled up by the sun.
Only the cemetery was still very refreshing..
