Chapter 38 Matyu returns and all the herbs are available!
Houston thought about his weak body that had not yet trained the Seed of Life, and then thought about how Annie could smash Heiyan's fist with her bare hands. If Annie punched him in the face, he would have to stay in bed for ten days or half a month.
What's more, he was the one who was in the wrong first, so Houston quickly lowered his head and begged for mercy.
"Hmph!" Annie snorted coldly and did not dwell on the matter any further.
She also knew that her scaly body was too scary in the eyes of ordinary people like Houston.
Entering the changing room, Annie took off her wizard robe and wrapped herself tightly in a black robe before following Lu Feng and Houston out of the underground laboratory.
Houston led the way, and soon the three of them arrived at the courtyard where wizard Matyu was resting.
In the courtyard, the white-haired wizard Matyu was standing in front of two pack animals that looked like camels, directing the young nobles who had followed him last time to take the bags of things off the pack animals and put them in the yard.
From the smell, they were all materials for making potions. Looking at the quantity, Wizard Matyu must have worked hard on this trip.
"Wizard Matyu, we are here!" Lu Feng greeted with a smile as he entered the courtyard.
Hearing Lu Feng's voice, Matyu returned happily.
"Sir Rest, you've come just in time. These are all fresh materials I collected from several nearby principalities. I checked them myself, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
As he spoke, he opened the bag and showed Lu Feng the fruits of his labor, as if he was trying to take credit for it.
Lu Feng nodded, opened the bag, and carefully checked it. It was indeed as the old man Matyu said, all of them were of good quality. They were not as good as the ones cultivated in the [Botanical Garden], but they were still good enough for the secondary continent.
Mathieu is quite capable despite his age.
"Annie, take Houston to count the quantities of these materials!" After taking a general look at several bags of materials and making sure there were no problems, Lu Feng handed the task of counting the materials to Annie.
Anne has also been learning basic botany recently, so she has no problem identifying and counting these materials.
"Okay, Master!"
Anne nodded, took the bag from Lu Feng, and counted it carefully with Houston as her helper. The noble young man brought by Matyu also silently lent a hand to help.
"Is this the wizard apprentice you brought with you? He looks pretty good!"
Seeing Anne working seriously, and the sacred coldness mixed with a hint of heat, Matyu was a little surprised.
It looks like this apprentice is almost ready to officially become a first-class wizard apprentice. He was not so strong when he came last time.
How long has it been? More than half a month. How much has changed? A good teacher produces good students?
Thinking of his difficult and painful wizard apprenticeship in the White Bone Cemetery, Matyu looked at Anne with envy. If I could also make a living with Rest, maybe I could have a good old age in the last few years of my life.
If my son could become Lester's apprentice, I would have no regrets in my life.
Matyu's eyes fell on the young nobleman and some ideas came to his mind.
By praising Anne's excellence, Matyu and Lu Feng started talking and chatting.
When talking about the current Grand Duke of the Tulip Principality, Mathieu has brought Lu Feng's attitude back to the Lawrence family.
There is not much conflict of interest between Lu Feng and the Lawrence family. With the support of the strength of the third-class wizard apprentice, the Lawrence family has not shown any hostility.
There is also the meaning of cooperation. When Matyu helped Lu Feng collect materials, the Lawrence family also helped.
Lu Feng was quite satisfied with the attitude of the Lawrence family. He had no intention of messing with Baron Hongye for the time being. It would be better if everyone could cooperate and get along with each other.
When talking about the Tulip Principality, Matyu naturally compared the differences between Red Leaf Town and the Principality.
The development of Hongye Town gave him a refreshing feeling.
The principality is not small in size, and no place is better developed than Hongye Town.
Not even the capital city.
Walking out of Hongye Town is like walking from a luxurious aristocratic castle into a dirty and smelly slum.
From the infrastructure to the cultural atmosphere, everything is completely different.
This made Matyu want to move his family from the capital to Hongye Town.
When talking about this, Lu Feng just smiled and didn't elaborate. The development of Hongye Town was the result of two generations of Baron Hongye listening to his ideas and slowly transforming it after going through numerous hardships.
It’s okay to make these changes quietly, but forget about saying them out loud!
Hongye Town has him, the wizard, to protect it. As for other places, if they want to make changes, they should ask the vested interest nobles, right?
They also talked about the bustling construction site in the manor. When they learned that Lu Feng was planning to build a wizard tower here, Matyu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Matyu had been to the [Bone Cemetery] before, so he naturally knew the significance of the wizard tower.
Although Lu Feng repeatedly emphasized that what he was going to build was just an "apprentice version of a wizard tower", it still couldn't extinguish the burning flame in Matyu's heart.
Time passed as the two chatted, and Anne and the other two counted the materials that Mathieu had brought.
"Master, there are 49 ingredients needed to make vitality potion!" Annie reported.
"The quantities are all correct!" Matyu nodded in confirmation.
"The market price of the vitality potion materials is 160 gold coins per portion, 49 portions, a total of 7840 gold coins. If you want to pay with magic stones, seven standard magic stones will be enough!"
"No problem. I don't have much gold coins, so I'll just pay with magic stones!"
Lu Feng did some mental calculations and found that the price was about the same as what he asked in Port Dillens when he came back, so he took out seven standard magic stones and paid.
On the secondary continent, all the kingdoms have a unified price of 1 magic stone equal to 1,000 gold coins, 1 gold coin equal to 100 silver coins, and 1 silver coin equal to 100 copper coins.
Magic stones and gold coins are usually exchanged in one direction. One magic stone can be exchanged for 1,000 gold coins, but 1,000 gold coins can never be exchanged for one magic stone.
After all, magic stones are a collection of energy and can be used in a wide range of ways in the hands of wizards, while various metals are experimental materials with limited uses and naturally limited value.
Not to mention that some official wizards, when wandering in the void of the plane, often encounter a special plane where the materials are all gold and silver.
If it weren't for the artificial control of the wizarding organizations that controlled the kingdoms, the metal currency of the secondary continent would have collapsed long ago.
After the payment and goods were settled, Lu Feng prepared a dinner to politely welcome Matyu and his son.
Both the host and the guests enjoyed themselves eating, drinking and chatting.
The next day, Mathieu and his son did not leave in a hurry, but rested in the manor.
After a long journey, the elderly Matyu said he was exhausted and planned to stay with Lu Feng for a few days to rest before setting off again.
Having said that, Lu Feng saw whether Matyu had other thoughts, but he had no intention of pointing them out.
