Chapter 98 Tornado and Wind Magic Stone 4
"Lin, Mu, Qiu!"
Qi Dongsi gritted his teeth, his blood boiling, and his whole body was filled with resentment and unwillingness.
Seeing everything in sight, Lin Muqiu finally turned around to look at him, and said in a neutral tone, "Oh, I forgot about you. Remember to inform your fellow townspeople."
Qidongsi:?
Do you really take me seriously?
"You..." He was so angry that he was gasping for breath and unfortunately bit his lip during the spasm.
However, the pain on the lips was no match for the pain of the spasms all over the body.
The other lords were either horrified, or afraid, or resentful, or admired, but all of them were looking at the woman who frightened them, and she just walked out calmly, not even bothering to glance at them.
They followed the sight and when they could vaguely see the scene outside the window, they were stunned.
The flickering torches illuminated the smiles of passersby as they packed up their stalls and headed home. Under the dim light, the ice and stone carvings revealed the [Ankang Town Commercial Street]!
If this isn't Ankang Town, then where else could it be?!
What’s even more frightening is that everyone noticed that many of the surrounding shops looked very familiar:
"Isn't this the *store* in my town?"
"Wait, I know that townsman. Isn't that my townsman?"
"When did they migrate here?!"
“…”
Many lords were on the verge of tears. They opened their lord systems tremblingly, only to find that overnight, many townspeople and their houses had all moved to Ankang Town.
Some people gave the reason that Ankang Town has good business, some gave the reason that Ankang Town has a low tax rate, some simply couldn't stand them selling infringing goods, and some just left without saying anything.
Damn, what is going on?
Townspeople are the foundation of a town's survival!
"You bitch, how dare you betray me!" Qi Dongsi kept struggling and wanted to get up and beat the tavern owner.
The proprietress was startled and shrank back, but Lin Muqiu embraced her and walked over to Lord Qidongsi. "My Lord Duke, I think you need to be respectful. Now that she has moved to Ankang Town, she is my citizen and must be protected by the guards."
After that, Augustine broke in and, together with the other guards, carried Qiston out like a chicken.
"You fucking..." Qi Sidong said in an extremely ugly voice, unable to struggle, "You guys planned to harm..."
However, the pain in his body prevented him from cursing.
The pain that swept through his body like a heat wave crushed his spirit. He was thrown out like a dog, wailing incessantly.
The famous Duke of the East was immediately humiliated.
Only the people in the house were left, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Considering the anomaly tonight, they suddenly realized that Lin Muqiu was using wind magic to carry out the relocation.
It’s so terrible, so terrible!
Everyone was terrified.
How many high-level mages are hidden in Ankang Town to have such an endless supply of wind power? How can it be as swift and powerful as a tornado? It's so bizarre!
It was Bu Rui who reacted first, shouting, "I will definitely prepare food and drink to welcome you, sir!"
Just this one sentence made everyone tremble.
The rumbling sound of the tornado continued, adding countless shocks to everyone's hearts.
As long as one person stands up, then hundreds, thousands, will naturally stand up as well...
The weather in the east will eventually change.
Lin Muqiu paused as he was about to step out of the door.
Bu Rui knelt on one knee and performed the knight's salute. "Lord Lin, when you established the Civilian Academy, you said that you would spread its benefits throughout the land and disseminate knowledge through live lectures. Do you still mean what you said?!"
"It counts." Lin Muqiu turned around, his face serious. "Those who have donated money to the Civilian College will get a 30% discount on online course materials. Those who haven't donated money will get the normal price."
"Sir, how are you going to set the price?" Bu Rui bit her lip, worried that she would set the price too high.
"A recorded class costs 200 copper coins. I'll use a recording stone to record it, and you can decide how much you need. A live class costs 300 copper coins. You'll provide the space mage yourself, and I'll accept your live broadcast request through the Lord System."
"Oh, and if you're shipping, shipping is free for large quantities."
After hearing Lin Muqiu's reply, Bu Rui took a deep breath and completely relaxed. "Sir, then I want to record the class! But what is... free shipping?"
"Hmm..." Lin Muqiu pursed her lips, "You'll know when the time comes."
The other nobles who were standing there stupidly only reacted after hearing this.
Oh my god, look at them, they are already planning for their future!
They all thought of Qi Dongsi's eyes, which showed that he wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, and they couldn't help but shudder.
I'm afraid the Duke of the East won't give them a good life in the future.
Instead of that, it would be better...
"I am willing to do business with Lord Lin!"
"I am willing to welcome you, sir, and open up a trade route for you!"
"I will follow Lord Lin's orders!"
“…”
The standing noble said stubbornly.
Following Lin Muqiu's path may not be a good one, but it will definitely be better than now, right?
Even the noble lying twitching on the ground couldn't help but think—
Do you really want to follow the Duke of the East?
Anyway, the Duke of the East isn't here right now, so he won't know about their rebellion...
Besides, this electric shock feels like a needle prick, it really hurts!
Thinking of this, they even hated the Duke -
Wasn't it said that Lin Muqiu's item lock was limited to seeds, food, and weapons? Why were they still affected?!
*
By the time I finished everything, it was already late at night and a drizzle was falling.
[The Eastern Bu Family City is now part of your territory!
【Eastern Atlan City becomes your territory! 】
【Eastern St. Petersburg is now your territory! 】
…
【Your business territory and map have been expanded, please check it in time! 】
[The map interface has been updated! Please check it in time! ]
Lin Muqiu was stunned when he received the system reminder.
What map page?
Just as he was about to check, Bu Rui came over and asked with a smile, "Master Lin, it's raining. This happened suddenly. We didn't bring the space mage with us. Shouldn't you send me back?"
This kid is always good at taking advantage of others.
She smiled slightly, "As it should be, 3 silver coins each time."
"Profligate merchant!" Bri blurted out, "Sir, you are the one who brought us here!"
She spread her hands. "This store was supposed to close at 1:30, and then we asked Ankang Town to move it. But you guys refused to leave. I had no choice but to bring you along."
Bu Rui: "..."
After a moment's silence, he finally paid.
The other nobles followed suit and paid.
In the end, the tavern was empty, and she sat in a corner counting the money, the money she earned for moving, the compensation she received from some nobles who pleaded guilty, and the money she earned from sending the nobles home.
In short, huge profits.
Things went more smoothly than she had imagined, and more town lords agreed to cooperate with her and open up trade routes than she had imagined.
I guess the Duke of the East will be furious again when he returns to his territory.
After all, when they woke up, most of the nobles had rebelled.
The East was like taking candy from a baby for her.
She was about to count the money she had earned again when she saw the tavern owner rubbing her hands together. She hesitantly walked over and thanked her profusely, "Sir, thank you so much for today. Otherwise, my daughter would... would have experienced the same fate as me. It's late today, why don't you stay here?"
She felt warm in her heart and was about to reply when she heard a voice suddenly come from the door, "No, I'm going to take the adults home."
Looking over there, it was indeed Augustine, standing straight in the wind and rain, holding an umbrella in his left hand and another in his right hand.
Seeing him, Lin Muqiu subconsciously frowned, thanked the proprietress, and finally walked to his side.
She took the umbrella from his hand and walked side by side with him. Hearing the sound of rain, she asked, "Thank you for your hard work tonight... Why haven't you left yet? Are you here to plead for your father?"
Augustine paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at her. "Can't I be here to pick you up?"
Lin Muqiu was stunned. "But I have a protective shield, so I won't get wet."
This made Augustine silent for a long time, "Yeah, you won't get wet at all."
"You've been acting a little strange lately."
"I apologize to you for what happened to my father."
They both spoke at the same time, trying to break the deadlock, which made Lin Muqiu startled again. After a while, she pursed her lips and explained, "There's no need to apologize. He didn't hurt me. If he admits to the infringement, his reputation will be ruined and he will go to jail according to the law. If he denies, the long-term electric shock punishment will make him insane. Either way, he has received the punishment he deserves."
After thinking for a moment, she added, "But if you don't want him to be like this, then I can adjust the voltage to a safe mode so that it won't damage his brain nerves."
"Well, let's talk about something happy." Augustine looked at her and forced a smile.
"Oh," Lin Muqiu tried to recall, "Now that the eastern trade route is open, I can use the Wind Magic Stone to form a courier network for delivery tomorrow."
Augustine: “…”
Is there nothing else that makes you happy besides making money?
