Chapter 119 Solon's composite bow design and Othello's family conflict
Galen Othello, a man with black hair and black eyes, who had the unique features of the Mediterranean race, looked with disgust at Baron Simon, who wanted to please him, while sitting in the carriage when he entered Simon's town.

In his opinion, investing in this inland town with no advantages and doing this kind of inland trade market trade line is a very unprofitable thing.

Not to mention that Maple Leaf Town is so targeting the Peter family, it would be better to invest in Sunan Peter from the beginning.

That is a high-quality asset.

However, my cousin Cecilia, for some reason, made the opposite decision and even used her own small treasury to force the investment here.

If her investment fails, her authority in the family will be greatly reduced.

The Othello family is a merchant family and more importantly, a merchant aristocracy of the Republic. It is the head of the five hundred families that actually rule the Platinum Republic, and its history is very old, dating back more than a thousand years.

Galen Othello had a headache. The Othello family was huge, and there were many branches even within the family. The Othello family had many monopoly businesses. When the children of their family reached adulthood, they would be assigned to one to five merchant ships based on their past performance. They would be accompanied by sailors hired by all the above families for two years, as well as nautical charts and trade routes provided by the Othello family, and then go out to sea to do business.

The successful ones will become the pride of the family and will become the family's maritime merchants from then on. The bankrupt ones will lose all their honors, return to the family, be ridiculed by everyone, and then can only find ways to take out loans and borrow money to go out to sea again.

Although they are the most distinguished people of the Platinum Commercial Republic, they travel on the sea every year, traveling between countries along the Mediterranean coast. He himself has not returned to the series of semi-artificial islands in the Platinum Republic for three years.

So, he has always been following his cousin Cecilia.

After he came of age, he received a lot of help from his cousin Cecia, so when he was summoned to help her invest in Simon's territory, he agreed.

He even excitedly made a trip to the Mamluk Kingdom on the other side of the Mediterranean Sea, bought some unique spices, dates, and grains sold in the Mamluk region, and transported them to Simon's territory, wanting to help his cousin Cecia.

As a result, cousin Cecilia, who always had a good eye and never made mistakes, chose a fool like Simon this time for some reason.

To be honest, he felt that the Storm Knights of the Storm Kingdom were not very good at doing business. These violent barbarians had a rough working style and no patience.

For example, Baron Simon in front of us, why is he running to the town gate to show off his power?

Didn't he know that he could be affecting the potential wealth of Simon's Town?
Galen no longer thought about the ridiculous Baron Simon.

Anyway, with cousin Cecia here, this town should be able to survive. After all, the inland economy of the Storm Kingdom is the worst among all countries.

The wealth of the Othello family can be easily torn into a hole here.

The King of the Storm Kingdom was even nicknamed the Beggar King by other countries. Every year, they applied for support from the kings of various Western countries and the Pope of the Papal State of Order due to financial bankruptcy.

It can be said that the Storm Kingdom is a very typical Crusade Kingdom.

The Platinum Republic has also gained many trade privileges from its trade with this Crusade country.

The carriage stopped in front of a flower shop. Galen got off the carriage and looked at the beautiful roses blooming in front of the shop.

The shopkeeper seized the opportunity to talk to the well-dressed guest, "These are fresh cut roses that were just picked this morning. They are the best blessing for your lover. Sir, look at how beautiful these roses are. There are still dewdrops from this morning's rain on them. What young lady would not be delighted to see them?"

"A rose costs only three Storm Coppers. I have..."

Galen interrupted him. "Your roses are not of very good quality. Not many people will buy your roses. At least half of your roses will be wasted today. If you still want to pass off inferior roses as good ones tomorrow, you won't be able to sell even one rose."

Galen Sioren said, "But I want to buy all the roses you have, so I'll charge you three Storm Coppers for two roses."

Galen cunningly used vague language to describe the situation, trying not to use clear numbers, but to stimulate the merchant in front of him and prevent him from realizing that he had reduced the price by half.

The merchant was delighted to hear that Galen wanted to buy all of them. He made a rough calculation and felt that he could make a profit, so he immediately began to pack all the roses for Galen.

The valet beside Galen asked, "Master Galen, are you buying so many roses to give to the lady from the branch of Peter's family?"

Galen nodded. "I fell in love with her the first time I saw her by accident. I want to pursue her."

His valet said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "But we are now in competition with the Peter family."

"Besides, he is just a country nobleman, yet he rejected you again and again. You are in Mamluk, and there are even foreign princesses who want to throw themselves into your arms."

Galen glared at him. "Don't say bad things about Miss Julia Peter behind her back. It makes me very unhappy."

"That's too rude. Although the Peter family is only a small country noble family, they are also the ruling class of knights in the Storm Kingdom."

"And that princess was a native Azaria princess from a land ruled by a Mamluk Bey. That was just... horrible, she didn't even like to take a bath!"

……

After Sunan finished refining the first bottle of medium-level sacrificial stone gargoyle potion, he asked Sunday to help him look after the laboratory. Then he left the Four Seasons Garden and found the great artist Solon, whom he had recruited from the Boot Peninsula some time ago.

Solon was very interested in taking Sunan into his sculpture studio to see the two life-size marble statues he had just carved for him.

Solon tore off the red cloth covering the marble statue, and suddenly two lifelike statues of young boys appeared in front of Sunan.

Solon said to Sunan, "My dear master, these are the works I have completed for you in the past two weeks. I used your facial features and added some artistic imagination to complete these two works. They will surely shine brightly in your castle."

Sunan raised his eyebrows. Fine, but it will not be placed in his own castle, but in the Oak Wizard Tower in the Four Seasons Garden, to help him make potions and handle chores. Sunan said briefly: "Not bad. I have a new task for you."

"I want to make a gargoyle out of steel. The gargoyle can be larger, about the size of a carriage."

"The claws of this steel gargoyle should be sharp, the tail should have barbs, and the wings should be as close to the body as possible."

"I think the forelimbs of this gargoyle can be made into a wing-hand structure, which is a combination of wings and claws, which can be used for flying and grasping."

"This time the steel gargoyle must be solid. Oh, and I need you to be able to embed these thumb-sized clay tablets into it. Can you do it?"

"My dear master." Solon thought carefully for a moment, then suddenly frowned and said, "It's easy to embed the clay tablet. Steel statues can have many layers anyway. But if it's solid steel, then putting it on top of your castle may cause hidden dangers and may even damage your castle."

Su Nan said: "You don't have to think about this."

"Just cast it as I described."

Solon bowed to Sunan. "Okay."

He didn't care about it at the moment. After all, many nobles had some unique hobbies, and he just had to complete his own artistic creation.

Solon hesitated for a moment, and said to Sunan, "My respected master. I am not content to be just a sculptor and caster. I have broader uses and hobbies. Would you like to see the war engineering vehicle I recently designed for your army?"

"I also have many unique ideas in the design of battlefield equipment. If you can equip your army with them, they will surely make your army invincible!"

Sunan was stunned for a moment.

Then he remembered that artists of this era were almost all jacks of all trades, able to do everything from architectural design to water conservancy engineering.

So there is a saying that incompetent artists can only draw architectural designs.

Obviously, the artist in front of him wanted to do something with flowers.

Sunan thought about it and felt that he would have to work more with this artist on the Stone Golem series in the future, so it seemed a good idea to show him a little respect.

So, Sunan nodded and said, "Then let me take a look."

Solon was a little worried about the attitude of the young baron in front of him, so he was very nervous in his heart. He was worried that Sunan would not even look at him, but would mock him and tell him to just do his own thing, just like the attitude of those viscounts he met on the peninsula before.

"Look, this is a special bow and arrow that I designed."

Sunan blinked, then looked up at Solon, and then at the specially structured bow and arrow in his hand.

This is actually a bow and arrow that is ahead of its time - a compound bow.

There is a limit to the poundage of ordinary bows and arrows, and the poundage of the bow and arrow determines the effectiveness of the werewolf warrior.

Werewolf warriors were developed to use tools such as bows and arrows.

If the compound bow in front of him could really be manufactured, it would greatly improve his werewolf warrior.

Sunan took a half step back and began to seriously study Solon, who was expelled from the Boot Peninsula because he was slandered as a plagiarist.

Su Nan asked in confusion: "Haven't you ever shown anyone the drawings of the weapons you designed before?"

"Does no one think that the weapons you designed have great potential?"

Solon sighed and looked at Sunan with some anticipation. For an artist, finding a sponsor who can appreciate his art is the most wonderful thing in the world.

"I showed it to people. But everyone distrusted my design, thinking it was too much of a change. Especially Viscount Ambrose of the Ambrose Republic, who laughed at me and said I was fanciful."

"And for example, if this special bow of mine could be made, it would be very powerful. But I can't find the right materials to make it."

“I can’t prove myself this way.”

Sunan nodded.

So that's how it is. This guy has the brains, but the basic materials of this era limit him.

But now I have a bunch of garden magic plants.

Among the wizard's materials, you should be able to find plant and animal materials that can be used to make a compound bow.

Moreover, this blueprint can be optimized by the intelligent brain to a reasonable, practical and low-cost level, and then Solon can produce it.

I should focus most of my time on digesting the magic information I have recently acquired.

He has now entered a period of rapid development of magic, and certainly does not have the spare time to make a compound bow himself.
