Chapter 11 The twists and turns
As a time traveler, Colin once considered how to make money and change his family's background. In his previous life, he had read many online articles. He also had a rough understanding of the production of distilled liquor, soap, white sugar, etc.
But the problem is that this is a fantasy world, and the curiosity of magicians is infinite. Through a certain experiment, they may create new things.
There are high wine, soap, and white sugar in this world. There are many similar small things in this world. The only thing Colin has never seen is the steam engine, but Colin doesn't understand how the steam engine is designed.
Moreover, the magicians play more high-end, while others play Gundam. The confidential internal design, hard shell, and even a large Gundam toy that can withstand magic attacks and have independent consciousness. Colin heard that that kind of thing is called "goddess".
Colin spent the next few days thinking about how to make money, so that God was unsteady.
"Colin, what's wrong with you? Is it something happened in school?" On Tuesday morning, Colin walked downstairs in his blue slippers, with a pair of bloodshot eyes open, and looked haggard.
Linda was startled by this look of ghosts. She was holding a pan in her hand and quickly came up to care.
Colin felt a little nervous, but he must not let Linda know that he had "failed to take blood potions", otherwise the Coke at home would be big.
Linda and Smith will definitely find a way to help him get a new blood potion, even if the house is sold. The siblings can make it.
Colin was anxious, how should he lie? Colin suddenly had an idea and sighed: "Sister, I'm in love."
"You are in love, as expected." Linda was stunned, then felt relieved, and showed a look as if I had expected. She guessed this a few days ago.
Then, Linda asked like a gun, "Who is the other party? Are you a classmate? Are you a noble? You must be a nobleman. Although our family is poor, you must never marry a civilian."
Linda is a good sister, but as a noble, she also has a marital cleanliness disease.
"Well, I'm a classmate from the next class. He is a nobleman, but the other party is from a noble family and the daughter of a baron. I failed to confess my love." Colin showed a painful expression.
Linda was shocked, holding the pan in one hand and not knowing where to put it, and holding her hair in the other hand, and said, "Baron's daughter?"
Although Colin must be very glorious to marry the Baron's daughter, can it be? Linda was very guilty.
"It's not impossible. If Colin graduated from Will Knight Academy, obtained the title of Lifetime Knight, and then obtained military achievements, he might not have become a baron in the future." Smith walked downstairs and smiled a little when he heard the conversation between the siblings.
"Yes." Linda smiled immediately, then clenched her fist and waved at Colin, encouraging: "Come on, Colin. I must marry the Baron's daughter for our Russell family."
Colin rolled his eyes and said, "I lied to you. But I was relieved and finally hid it for the time being. "But how can I make money?"
Linda continued to cook breakfast, and Smith sat at the dining table to drink water and wait for the meal, and the same was true for Colin. Linda and Smith were separated by the restaurant and kitchen respectively, and started a hot chat about Colin's intention to marry the Baron's daughter.
Until Linda brought the breakfast one by one, a large basket of full bread, just fried poached eggs, some small sausages, and a glass of milk.
Smith held a piece of bread and till it open and ate it, and said casually: "Have you heard that the Empire had a war with the Kingdom of Sesame in the east, and it was very large. Even the Marquis had led the knights to help the emperor."
"Is this true?" Linda obviously hadn't heard of it before, and showed a surprised expression. The poached egg on the fork was no longer fragrant.
"Yes. Because the war is huge, it will continue for a while. The price of wheat will rise a lot this year, so Will City's financial situation will improve. Perhaps it is a good thing for us." Smith nodded and said.
"Well." Although Linda is a tutor and not a financial officer, she still has a basic understanding of the market and nodded.
"By the way, I also heard that there has been a shortage of pharmacists recently, which has led to many businesses selling pharmacists increasing their treatment for pharmacists." Smith showed an envious expression on his face and said, "The treatment of those pharmacists is good enough, and we have to increase our treatment. We really don't have the ability and opportunity. If we become pharmacists, there is no need to work so hard."
Because of the city hall's layoffs, he has been under great pressure recently and is particularly envious of those pharmacists, forgeators, runes and other philosophers.
"Don't think of these useless things. Human origin determines the starting point, and our situation is just like this. I just look forward to Colin's successful graduation and then awarded the title of Lifetime Knight." Linda shook her head, and put a small sausage on her hand and chewed it.
"But why are pharmacists short of?" Linda asked again.
Colin had been shocked in his heart, and he couldn't help but prick up his ears when he heard this.
"War. Healing potions, life potions, strength potions, agility potions, these potions are very important in normal times. In war periods, they are strategic materials." Smith replied.
"So that's it." Linda showed a sudden look.
"So that's it." Colin said in his heart, then he looked up and said to Linda: "Sister, I'm going to Kent City."
"What are you doing in Kent City?" Linda, Smith, looked surprised, and Linda frowned.
"I really want to go and have a look," Colin said seriously, looking up.
Linda, Smith made a look with her eyes, and then Linda nodded and said, "Okay, but you have to ask for leave by yourself at school."
"Yeah." Colin nodded, then focused on dealing with breakfast.
Soon after, Colin and Smith went out separately. Linda packed the tableware alone, muttering something.
"Colin, a kid, has been sensible and well-behaved since he was a child, never brings too much. He is not like Smith and I, who have been naughty since he was a child. This time he proposed to go to Kent City. Is it because of his love?"
This is why she agreed to Colin's request. The entire empire is relatively safe at present. I have never heard of any thieves, bandits, or something. It is very safe on the road.
