I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 261 261. Five Years, Changes Everywhere

Gray desert.

Lord Graysand looked at Jamie with joy, not hiding his satisfaction, and praised: "You did a great job."

At this moment, the two of them were standing on the city wall made entirely of silver-blue metal. Looking into the distance, all they could see were houseboats sailing in the flood.

They traveled unhindered through the gray flood and fog, with magic lanterns hung on the masts of the ships, and the flickering magic lights shone brightly, like starlight in the dark sea of ​​stars.

The huge plate-like ship on which they were standing was the target of those ships.

Jamie watched them from a distance.

A smile appeared on the dark face that had been blown by the rough sand of the gray desert and the strong wind that never became gentle.

Facing Lord Graysand's praise, he replied very steadily: "After five years, our first step of the plan has finally been completed.

Lord Huisha, are you willing to accept the second step of the plan?"

Gray Desert, still in his youthful appearance, stared at Jamie and did not directly answer the question. Instead, he said, "Nilante likes you very much and even asked me to leave Gray Desert."

"..." Jamie thought of the lively girl who was like a leopard, and his heart moved slightly, as if warmth surged in his heart.

The indescribable heart-pounding feeling made his dark face slightly blush.

During these five years, if she hadn't helped coordinate the various cities in the Gray Desert, things would have been much more difficult.

"I will have to stay here for a long time, Lord Huisha, but I can assure you that I will never let her down."

Jamie replied, "She must also want to see her hometown recover and become green, turning from a desert back into an oasis, right?"

"I will try my best to plead with the Lord to reduce the price of this contract. This is my greatest sincerity."

In fact, when Croa drafted the contract, he gave them the power to adjust the price.

"Yes." Lord Gray Sand laughed dumbly: "You are right, then, you and I will sign the second phase of the contract."

"Before we proceed to the second phase of the plan, you can take Nilante to have a good rest. I allow you to take her back to your hometown to take a look."

The young lord patted Jamie on the shoulder, his tone carrying a hint of affection for the younger generation: "If you can get Cloya's blessing, I will be completely relieved about your affairs."

"Of course, I will ask the teacher for my blessing." Jamie nodded with a firm expression.

So Lord Graysand nodded with satisfaction, and his body gradually disappeared in the light of magic. Jamie watched him leave, and soon saw Nilant running over.

The woman who looked like a little leopard hugged him directly, not hiding her love for him at all: "Let's go around the city first, and then I will go back to the North with you."

"Okay." Jamie also had a smile on his face. He first tidied up Nilan's clothes that were flying up because of running.

Then he took her hand and excitedly went with Nilant into the city of ships that was being assembled and spliced.

At this time, the City of Ships has completely integrated all the cities and tribes in the entire Gray Desert. Usually they are scattered in various areas, but they will still gather together during major festivals.

Every ship that approaches the Ship City of Gray Sand City will automatically connect and become part of this huge city.

Jamie and Nilant watched a ship approach the gray sand ship. It gradually melted, and the silver-blue metal seemed to have life, flowing, converging and merging into the interior of the city wall.

There are also some purple duckweed on the bottom of the ship that have been integrated into the city wall. They will be transported to the breeding pool inside the Gray Sand City for cultivation and absorb magic power.

The rooms and various equipment originally inside the ship will be transported by the magic circle to various cabins in the city for accommodation and repair in the repair factory.

Watching such a huge ship being disassembled from intact to completely disassembled, the shock brought by the high efficiency of the magic industry is indescribable.

Even after watching it many times, Nilant still feels emotional.

She couldn't help but wonder, "How are these metals made? I have never seen such magical metals.

They are like living things, able to blend into each other.”

She asked this, and Jamie did not hide it.

After all, Nilant is not only his future wife, but also the person designated by Lord Grey Sand to liaise with Hanjiao Island. It is certainly okay for her to want to know some secrets.

"These metals are the fifth-generation Floating Moon Alloy developed by the Hanjiao Laboratory. Some of the shells of the magic insects raised by Lord Cloya have been added to them. This shell can ensure that the Floating Moon Alloy can be fused."

Jamie casually took out a small piece of Floating Moon Alloy, kneaded it for a while on the spot, then made it into an exquisite silver-blue lotus and handed it to Nilant.

"I like it very much!" Nilant smiled brightly.

After taking the lotus, she began to disassemble it without hesitation. Every petal, every lotus seed, and even the lotus pod inside could be disassembled and pieced together at will.

Moreover, when splicing different positions, it will automatically correct itself, making it look like living metal.

"It's so magical." It was the first time that Nilant experienced the magic of this metal personally.

Although a huge amount of Floating Moon Alloy was used in the construction process, there were strict regulations on how to use each gram. This is the first time I have touched it in five years.

"There are even more amazing things over at Hanjiao Island. I'll take you there to see them later."

"Let's go, let's take a tour of the gray sand boat and then go back."

The two of them immediately began to walk around in the gray sand ship. This ship, or city, was round on the outside, but was divided into various areas under the metal shell.

It is basically designed and built strictly according to the map of the Gray Desert. Each area has different scenery and corresponding decoration structures.

For example, the two of them are now entering the very center of the Gray Sand Ship, which is also a special cabin built based on the Gray Sand City.

The ground was covered with dense golden sand, and there was a scorching hot wind blowing around. The buildings inside the cabin were triangular houses.

These houses were planned in an orderly manner, with many people walking around inside, buying specialties unique to the Gray Desert - these were merchants from the Kingdom of Nolant and abroad, who rushed over as soon as there were ships coming and going.

When you look up, you can see a "glass dome" made up of some strange mirror-like magical plants, and a clear sky with bright sunshine that looks like a huge sapphire.

If it weren't for the magic crystal sign standing next to it that clearly read "Central Cabin of Gray Sand City", who would have thought that this was actually the interior space of a giant ship?

"No matter how many times I see it, I'm still amazed." Nilant looked at the clear glass dome, feeling the warm light that was almost indistinguishable from sunlight.

"What kind of magic did you use to create such a perfect life-sustaining magic circle?"

Jamie explained: “These life-sustaining magic circles were also taught to us by Master Cloya.

Those glass domes are actually mirror flowers raised by the dwarves. Their lives are very short, and their complete life cycle is from sunrise to sunset.

If you look carefully, you will find that the mirror flowers are different every day, because they record different scenery. "

After hearing this and thinking carefully about the scenery every day, Nilant suddenly realized that it was true, every day was different.

Sometimes the sky is clear, sometimes it is stormy, and you can also see weather changes that would never exist in the desert.

"Won't the maintenance cost be very high?" she asked again.

This time Jamie did not answer, because the maintenance cost is actually the main source of income for Hanjiao Island. What they sell is finished products rather than technology.

The more sophisticated the magic array and magic device, the more daily updates and maintenance they require, not to mention that this is a technology unique to Hanjiao Island.

For giant life-support arrays and magic plant arrays like these, the maintenance costs that Gray Sand City needs to pay are tens of thousands of magic crystals every month.

As time goes by, the magic array inside will become more complete, and the cost will increase. It will be a more profitable business than the magic crystal mine.

When Nilant saw that Jamie didn't answer, she knew that it was probably something that was not convenient to talk about, so she didn't ask any further questions.

She took Jamie for a walk in the huge gray sand boat, and they passed through the "Quicksand City Cabin", "Cactus Cabin", "Graystone Mountain Cabin"...

Anyway, after touring most of the cabins and buying a lot of various gifts, the two finally entered the Mo Ping cabin located in the center of the Gray Sand Ship.

This place has undergone a folding space magic pattern array project, and there is a full hectare of emerald green lake water here. The evil sea purple magic duckweeds come here every month to recuperate.

At the same time, all the magic power absorbed from Leviathan will be sunk to the bottom of the pool and transported to Hanjiao Island for storage - the external statement is that it is destroyed.

Lord Gray Sand has long hated the magic of these Leviathans. Even though he is also a follower of the demon god, when facing a Leviathan, he actually wants to beat the opponent to death with one punch.

Of course, he wholeheartedly agreed to take away all these evil magical powers.

In fact, this is the plan for the second round.

That is the Gray Desert Oasis Plan. First, absorb all the magic power of Leviathan, and then plant some special magic plants to form an oasis. Sooner or later, the Gray Desert will be turned into an oasis. The two people who entered here directly used the long-distance teleportation magic circle to Hanjiao Island. Jamie put his arm around Nilant's shoulders and comforted her, "Let's go back to Hanjiao Island."

"Yeah." Nilant suppressed the uneasiness in her heart.

She didn't know if she could get Chloe's approval. If Chloe didn't approve of her, then she and Jamie would definitely have no future.

As the light flickered slightly, the two figures disappeared into the magic circle.

……

In the Golden Apple Paradise.

Here came a special guest, no, it should be said that there was a group of special guests - there were men and women, young and old, and even short and stocky dwarves as big as tree stumps and strong orcs.

"Everyone, I will take you to visit some of the special species in our northern border. If you have any needs for purchasing or cooperation, please tell me."

Elena held up the small flag in her hand and smiled brightly - these were all rich fat sheep, she could get commission!

Behind her, people from various countries and races on the continent nodded one after another, all looking forward to the output of the Northern Farm.

Especially the representatives of the dwarves.

The dwarf named Gol Tiefen said in a gruff voice: "Anyway, we dwarves will take care of all the wheat produced in your wheat field!"

The dwarves love drinking beer very much. After tasting the beer produced by Hanjiao Island by chance, the dwarves immediately placed an order.

You know, each dwarf can even drink three or four barrels of beer every day, so the wheat produced in the Wheat Valley is not enough at all.

He was not interested in anything else, but he had to take the wheat first. If it was snatched away by others, he would be stuffed into the wine barrel when he returned.

But as soon as he said this, a middle-aged man who was as thin as a tree trunk said, "That won't do. Why do you want to monopolize it?"

The middle-aged man was from Dinos, the city of warriors. The most common military rations there were baguettes that were so hard that they could be used as weapons.

It is said that every warrior has to gnaw one every day to show his great strength, so the demand for flour is quite exaggerated.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that they don’t pursue the taste of bread, but it is really difficult to make the kind of hard bread that can be used as a weapon taste good.

They looked for many flour suppliers and finally decided on the northern part of Nolant. The baguettes made with blood wheat were not only harder but also tasted quite sweet.

It is said that they all plan to give this magical, sweet and hard bread to infants and young children as a teething stick, which will further increase the demand.

His mission this time was to escort a sufficient amount of flour back to Dinos. Not to mention if the dwarves asked for it, even if they sent an army, he would still dare to fight.

"you!"

When Gel Tiezhan heard the man's words, his eyes widened with anger, and he wished he could take out his hammer and fight the other person on the spot.

Fortunately, people watching the fun quickly stopped them.

"Don't make any noise, don't make any noise!"

"It's shameful for you to fight in the North!"

"My two guests, we have more than enough wheat!"

In the end, Elena's words successfully pulled apart the two people who were about to start a fight on the spot. They snorted coldly and did nothing else.

Elena finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to lead the group around in the garden called "Northern Garden" with her small flag.

There are many fenced flower beds in the garden, and those flower beds contain specialties from all over the North.

Such a small Northern Garden gathers all the crops of the North, allowing visitors to select and taste them while also preventing them from wandering around the North and seeing the specific conditions of the North.

"Everyone, this is one of our main fragrances in the North, the Rock Lotus Perfume."

Elena pointed to a crystal clear earthy yellow lotus growing in a nursery and introduced: "There are rock lotuses of various qualities here. If you have any needs, you can go in and check them out."

Immediately, several human nobles entered the nursery. They carefully sniffed the fragrance of the lotus and sensed the magic within.

"This rock lotus is of good quality."

“Is it okay if I want to buy raw materials in bulk?”

"What is your price for deep processing? Can you offer a discount?"

They started asking questions one after another, obviously attracted by these high-quality rock lotuses.

"Of course, whether you need to purchase raw materials or need us to do further processing, we have a complete workshop."

Elena took out a few signs and handed them to them, "Hey guys, you can go to the side and look at the spice section, and then follow us later."

As soon as he finished speaking, a few earthworms in tuxedos and ties ran out and politely invited the people holding the signs to go to the experience store nearby.

They originally came to buy spices. High-quality spices are necessities for nobles and wizards, so they immediately followed the earth-thieving rat and left.

The others followed Elena and continued forward. During this time, Elena introduced:

"These are tulips and swallowtail butterflies that we have bred to affect the temperature of the surrounding environment."

"This is the wooden board we produced. It has the basic effect of gathering magic power."

"This is the farm of the Anshen Lily, Flametail Dog, and Azure Pigeon..."

There are all kinds of crops in the small nursery, attracting merchants, representatives of cities and even races and countries who come here multiple times or for the first time.

She never stopped talking. In just a few dozen meters, she introduced dozens of magical plants and magical beasts. Some people in the team were sent to experience these crops and sign contracts.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people in the team.

Walking to the back, there were basically only a few people left who were planning to buy high-quality magical crops and food.

These people are considered the core of Hanjiao Island, because the things they buy are either expensive or in huge quantities, and they can earn a lot of magic crystals and materials with every transaction.

"Let's arrange for him first."

Elena glanced at the somewhat anxious representative of the elves, and finally pointed to some extremely strange trees in the distance and spoke.

"These are the Morning Dew Tree and the Evening Glow Tree that our Lord personally cultivated."

The elf's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't wait to walk over and admire the two small trees in the nursery with a fascinated look.

Their colors and radiance are exactly opposite.

One is a gorgeous sunset with gradient colors; the other is a solemn and bright sunrise. They grow there quietly as if dividing the morning and night.

"We want them all!" said the elf of the Orpheus family impatiently.

His mission this time was to buy the sunset in the tombstone and the sunrise in the marigolds. Now that he saw them, he of course declared them his possession immediately.

Others did not fight with him for it, after all, they didn't know what it was, and the elves were much more proud than the dwarves.

"Okay." Elena nodded.

He was then taken away by the waiting earth-rat into a side room for a detailed discussion.

Next, the number of shopping teams led by Elena continued to decrease, and they bought various crops, such as rice, sweet potatoes, beans, corn...

The representatives from the Dwarf and Warrior Kingdoms also smiled with wrinkles on their faces, and began to bargain contentedly, trying to take away more at a more favorable price.

In the end, only three people were left.

Elena glanced at them and said, "Dear guests, the next step is the special service you want to purchase."

She quickly stepped forward and pushed open the door of the hall in front of her.

The magical light shines through.

What appeared inside was something that made the royal merchants who came from various kingdoms excited.
