Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy
Chapter 30 The Treatment of Followers
Chapter 30 The Treatment of Followers
Tai'an walked slowly into the living room and immediately saw several people sitting on the sofa.
His older sister, Taiya; his fiancée, Greenfield; and his follower, Guts. In addition, there is a strikingly beautiful brown-haired girl.
A captivating face, a charming and delicate temperament, a slender figure that is slightly bony, yet it does not hinder her youthful development; the aura emanating from her soul is pure…
"Good evening, everyone," the young wizard greeted calmly.
Guts immediately stood up and silently gave a standard warrior's salute.
"Xiao An, don't you get out of school at three o'clock? Why are you so late coming back?" Tai Ya asked, sounding annoyed.
"Potions class went overtime, didn't you notice that none of the neighbors next door came back?" Tyrion replied casually, sitting in the empty space between Tyrion and Greenfield with a nonchalant demeanor.
"Potion class can easily go overtime. Back then, I stayed in the lab until the early hours of the next day the longest I stayed to prepare potions."
Taiya recounted her experiences to those around her, lamenting her poor practical skills and lack of mental control. Even now, she hadn't achieved her dream of becoming a highly successful potion brewer: "Xiao An, how many people in your class can brew potions?"
"There are three people, and I'm one of them." The young wizard took out a potion bottle from his spatial ring and waved it in front of his sister.
"Wow! Xiao An, you're amazing!" Taiya jumped up from the sofa excitedly, hugged Tai An's shoulders and shook him vigorously, her eyes sparkling with gold. The next second, she thought, "From now on, you'll be in charge of manufacturing the medicine, and I'll be in charge of sales. Let's work together and make a fortune."
"Oh!" Tai'an responded noncommittally.
The Blue Rose Territory is located in the harsh north, and its economic conditions have never been very good. Compared to other nobles of the same rank, the siblings' allowance is pitifully meager. They receive only one hundred gold coins per semester, which is even less than that of the children of some wealthy middle-class nobles in the south.
Despite this, Tai'an felt that he had more than enough pocket money and lacked the interest to make money.
A glint of surprise flashed in Greenfield's eyes as she suddenly realized that her fiancé seemed unexpectedly capable.
You should know that potion masters are highly sought-after talents, often referred to as walking gold mines.
Even without the status of a noble heir, they can still live a very comfortable life in the future.
"Oh, right!" Taian turned to Greenfield: "The butler said you wanted to see me?"
"Two things!" Greenfield, being straightforward, got straight to the point: "First, I want to introduce you to a follower. I hope you'll accept her and take good care of her. Her name is Aglaia."
The tea-haired girl looked nervously at the black-haired boy, her light-colored lips pursed, and her hands on her knees unconsciously clenched.
A silence fell over the room.
Tai'an's mind is racing, analyzing and considering all possibilities.
My fiancée suddenly presented me with a stunningly beautiful woman. Could it be a test or a trial?
Thinking of his past ambition to be a restless man, he couldn't think of a reason to refuse: "No problem."
"Aglaia is willing to offer her all her loyalty." The brown-haired girl knelt down on one knee without hesitation and swore an oath.
"Get up!"
Tai'an frankly stated that he disliked the traditional etiquette of kneeling down at the drop of a hat, and that in the future, a slight bow would suffice when they met. He also brought up the issue of treatment.
"Followers of the Blue Rose family will receive a fixed monthly salary. Initially, it will be thirty silver dollars per month, and later it will be adjusted according to ability and contribution. In addition, I will also distribute cultivation resources regularly."
In the Violet Kingdom, the average monthly salary for an ordinary person is about six or seven silver dollars. According to current price standards, that's enough for a family of five to barely make ends meet.
A monthly salary of thirty silver dollars wasn't particularly generous for a graduate of Violet School. Joining any major organization would yield a similar wage.
Considering that there are almost no work requirements, no need to risk one's life, and regular distribution of cultivation resources, it's actually not bad and quite reasonable.
"From now on, your personal safety will be protected by the family's resources. If you encounter any trouble, you can directly seek assistance from Mussofi..."
Upon hearing this, Gus nodded seriously, acknowledging that the butler was capable of handling most disputes.
Tai'an suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of his front door, and the panda butler opened the door and let the silver-haired loli in.
"Sister Taeya!"
"Silver Moon, come in and sit down."
Taiya nudged her younger brother's shoulder and warmly moved aside.
Tai'an was displeased, but unfortunately had no chance to vent his anger. He took out a money bag containing silver coins from his spatial ring, counted out the correct amount of reward, and handed it to Gus and Aglaia respectively.
It's clear that the two are living in poverty and may urgently need funds to make ends meet.
Gus and Aglaia accepted their salaries without hesitation. There was nothing wrong with getting paid in advance; it would allow them to work even harder.
Taian then issued an order, requiring Gus to help Taiya with daily chores, while Aglaia remained by his side, directly under his command.
There was no objection from family members.
Yin Yue couldn't help but sarcastically remark from the side, "Xiao An is so clever! Keeping a pretty older sister by his side."
"Is there anything else?" Tyrell remained silent, his calm gaze fixed on Greenfield.
"I suffered severe internal injuries in my duel with Carlo Jones and need medicinal herbs or potions containing life force to heal. Could you please keep an eye out for me?" Greenfield stammered, secretly observing Tai'an's expression and subconsciously assuming that the siblings were quite wealthy. After all, they each possessed spatial equipment, and a few hundred gold coins wouldn't be a problem for them.
"Greenfield, you're a very generous woman." Taiya put her hand around Taian's nape and patted her sister-in-law's shoulder meaningfully: "If you have any financial difficulties in the future, just come to me."
"I just made this potion of life today, you can take it and use it first." Tai'an generously handed over the potion bottle.
A life potion of perfect quality, worth hundreds of gold coins on the market, is quite a generous offer.
After all, she was his fiancée in name only. Before Greenfield decided to betray her, he didn't need to be too stingy with some superficial assistance.
Of course, the main reason is that Tai'an believes that the actual cost he paid was only the material cost of a silver dollar and three or four hours in the afternoon, and the loss was within an acceptable range.
"Thank you!" Greenfield gratefully accepted the bottle, uncorked it without hesitation, and briefly smelled it.
The life force was much stronger than the high-quality life potions he had bought from the potion shop.
Greenfield didn't know much about potions, and without thinking too much about it, he tilted his head back and swallowed mouthfuls of the sweet-tasting, viscous semi-solid.
As the cool life force rapidly spread throughout his body, a mouthful of blood suddenly surged up to his throat.
Greenfield hurriedly got up and ran to the toilet to vomit. A moment later, he felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.
The vital energy clears the blockages in the meridians caused by internal injuries, allowing the Qi and blood to complete a full cycle again.
