MC's career as foreign lord

"A potion that can increase life force, food that can grant magical immunity, a fruit that can enhance one's magical spirituality, and even elven fruit that the elves themselves don't sell?" The two browsed in front of the exhibition board, growing more shocked and delighted with each item they saw.

No wonder so many people came for this auction. If these things were to appear in their magic kingdom, the Magic Council would immediately confiscate them all, using various pretexts to gather them into their own hands first.

After all, there are too many places where these things could be used, and their utility is far too great. If they weren't collected and fell into the hands of their enemies, it would be a disaster.

"Teacher, these aren't the products being auctioned. These are just advertisements in the ordinary market. The auction items only have a simple name!" Ange said once again. This legendary mage had sharp eyes and a piercing gaze, quickly grasping the details of the auction.

"Auctioning the planting rights for a Tree of Life in each region... Hiss! They're even auctioning the binding rights for each Tree of Life!!"

The mage's surprise reached the ears of those around him, who looked at him with an air of superiority.

Although these people were just as surprised when they first arrived in this area, that didn't stop them from mocking those even less knowledgeable than themselves.

Besides these, there were many other products that could move them. These products clearly listed their effects and prices, which left them a little puzzled.

"What does it mean that a Tree of Life slot only costs 1,000 Wealth Gold Coins? What is a Wealth Gold Coin?" Ange didn't quite understand.

Khedira, of course, didn't understand either. Their understanding was the same. They knew about the standard gold coins issued by the Church of the Goddess of Wealth. After all, besides the magic currency issued by the Magic Kingdom itself, they actually used these standard currencies the most.

But what was a Wealth Gold Coin? Did the Church of the Goddess of Wealth reprint their currency and just change the name?

Khedira silently grumbled in his heart. If that were the case, he would have to bring this up at the council and have the kingdom properly consider the status of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth.

This way of arbitrarily changing currency was too influential on the economic value of the entire kingdom, and might even damage their own economic system. It was unacceptable.

But if that were the case, it wouldn't make sense. If a Tree of Life slot was only worth 1,000 gold coins, there would be tens of millions of people on the entire continent who could afford that price. Even those fallen nobles could probably scrape together that much money.

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard inquiries from the other side, which were indeed different from what they had imagined.

"Where exactly can we exchange for these Wealth Coins?" A fellow who looked like a human noble asked. He was followed by several human guards, one of whom was even a legend. He seemed to be a relatively high-ranking figure among the human nobles.

"You can exchange for brand new gold coins at the Church of the Goddess of Wealth under the Tree of Life!" His guard seemed to have inquired very clearly. Anyway, he was speaking perfectly normal information, so there was no need to avoid anything.

"However, you should pay attention to one thing," he said, "the exchange rate is very exaggerated. One Wealth Gold Coin requires 14,000 common gold coins to exchange!"

Unexpectedly, the human merchant nodded in agreement, "Then that price is correct. 14 million gold coins to exchange for a Tree of Life position!"

A look of surprise appeared on his face, "I think we can try to win the operating rights for our region. Obtaining the operating rights will grant us a free position!"

"14 million..." The master and apprentice were dumbfounded. As mages, they could certainly come up with this money, but the price was a bit too exaggerated. However, for some merchants, it might not be unacceptable, because it represents a full 1,000 years of lifespan.

Because humans, as a short-lived race, have 1,000 years of lifespan. Elves, as a long-lived race, might be able to reach 10,000 years. In fact, every race needs it very much. It's just that the elves have been cherishing it for tens of thousands of years, and only their race has been able to enjoy it.

But it's different now. Since this human lord dares to sell such abilities directly, it means they have the ability to do so. The price of 14 million gold coins is enough to deter most people.

"Teacher..." Ange looked at her teacher with some confusion. They couldn't come up with this money right now. If they wanted to, they would probably have to get permission from the Magic Council.

"We can try to fight for the agency rights in the Magic Kingdom. Since we can be an agent, then we might be able to get a piece of the pie!" As a member of the Magic Kingdom Council, this was the first thing he thought of.

Khedira said immediately, and then stepped forward to talk to the merchant.

Rather than looking for some non-existent guides, it's better to find these guys who have the intention to buy themselves. Compared to those city guides who might be a little impatient, these merchants with the intention to buy are easier to reach a consensus with.

Seeing the two legends approaching him, the merchant wasn't surprised. Instead, he looked at them with a smile.

"Are you two from the Magic Kingdom?" In fact, the human race has many countries on the entire continent, and each country has some inconspicuous features that can always be seen with careful observation.

For example, this merchant from the Wealth Kingdom had some emblems belonging to their country, while the two mages from the Magic Kingdom were holding wands that only mages from their country would produce.

"Yes," Khedira nodded, "I want to ask about the situation in this territory. Have you understood it clearly?"

"Another two who ran over without knowing the special circumstances of the territory, right?" The merchant said, "Anyway, there's still time before the auction, so why don't we find a place to rest and I'll tell you all about it?"

"Okay!" The two had just arrived and didn't know the situation, so naturally they couldn't refuse. They nodded slightly and followed the fat merchant to the tallest building.

"You may see some things here that you have never understood in your life, so don't rush to answer. I am a merchant from the Rhine Kingdom, my name is Horace!" he said.

The two legendary mages naturally also gave their names, and then they came to the front of the tall building, and then they discovered the most terrifying scene in their lives.

It was indeed a very large high-rise building, and the floors were densely packed with people coming and going, but the bottom floor of this building had no pillars.

No, that's not quite right. To put it another way, the building itself had no pillars. It was just a series of platforms suspended in the air, creating a dauntingly tall building with over 40 floors.

"This is the most crowded place in the entire platform. Floors 1 to 35 are the market, and the floors above 35 are used as restaurants!" Horace said, skillfully leading his guards onto an elevator.

They entered the water directly, and to the slight surprise of the two, they quickly ascended towards the sky.

"This… moving through the water flow between bubbles? What a truly ingenious idea!" The two mages naturally had methods of water evasion, so they didn't hesitate to enter the water. Once inside, they discovered that the water flow didn't actually touch their bodies. The bubbles repelled the water from them, and under a surge of force, they reached the sky.

Upon reaching the top floor, they were stopped by a layer of panels, and then smoothly slid into the passage ahead. By the time they emerged from the door, they were completely dry.

"Wasn't that a wonderful experience, you two mages?" Horace said, heading straight for another passage, which led to the 36th floor, where they were going to eat.

"You seem very familiar with this place?" Angie asked. Clearly, everyone had arrived recently, so why was he so familiar with it?

Horace smiled. "I'm different from you. I came here through the Wealth Church's teleportation array as soon as this territory opened!"

He had a very proud expression on his face, as if being able to use the teleportation array was a very remarkable thing.

The latest novel is first published at 69shuba.!

The lord of this territory has now been confirmed by the entire Wealth Church as a knight personally recognized by their goddess. This also means that the center of the entire Wealth Church will begin to shift towards this place, and even the Pope will move the headquarters of the entire Curia to this territory.

This was no less than a bolt from the blue for the Rhine Kingdom, because they were the former headquarters of the Wealth Church, which had allowed them to develop rapidly in the past few hundred years, even earning them the reputation of the continent's wealth center.

But they had no way to stop this matter. It was a decree from the gods. Unless they were really prepared to wage war between their kingdom and the gods, otherwise… they could only let it be.

It was precisely because of this that they made many preliminary preparations, such as sending many merchants to this territory to investigate. If they really felt that this territory was very good, they would also need to prepare early and shift the center of their kingdom here, at least moving all the commercial aspects over.

This was the only way to ensure the wealth competitiveness of their country, and it was also a place that all merchants flocked to. Then, upon arriving in this place, he discovered the unusual reaction of this area, which was a truly wonderful and admirable commercial district.

Whether it was the vast and resource-intensive market, or the seemingly small but captivating restaurant, or even the small markets placed in various areas, the special markets of various races, and some buildings that everyone easily forgot but always existed.

After touring this area, the merchants of their kingdom discovered that it was indeed more qualified than them to become the center of a city. It possessed all the development elements of a commercial city and possessed the greatest resource.

That was goods and wealth!

Any goods in this territory were completely unheard of in other areas, and the lingering elves also proved that the value of these things was indeed terrifying.

"So that's how it is!" The guests from the two mages' kingdoms were also very curious after hearing this reason.

They also wanted to know what caused the Rhine Kingdom to lose confidence in the entire market, but now they wanted to first taste the supposedly delicious food in this restaurant.

"This is a completely self-service restaurant. You two probably haven't exchanged for gold coins yet, right? I can treat you!" Horace said, then took out a copper coin that seemed to shimmer with light. Of course, in today's terms, it was called a Wealth Copper Coin.

"Is this the new currency? I saw the exchange rate. Even the lowest copper coin has an exchange rate as high as 1:200 gold coins!" Caderin said.

It wasn't that they hadn't paid attention to the exchange rate there. As mages, they could basically see what was being said with a mental sweep, and that was why they were so shocked.

One Wealth Copper Coin could actually be exchanged for 200 gold coins. What kind of concept was that? But looking at the expression of this merchant, he even felt like he had made a profit?

"You don't know, this Wealth Coin is not a simple metal currency, it is actually a compression of a special metal mineral!" Horace said, "In that case, I'll show you how to use the power within!"

He gently waved his hand and saw a burst of light spots emerge from the coin and enter his body, instantly energizing his somewhat tired body, and the copper coin in his hand began to rapidly enlarge until it became a giant copper particle much larger than a fist.

"Hiss!" The two simultaneously gasped in surprise. No wonder they said that its intrinsic value was not low. Such a large copper particle, even if it were made into standard copper coins, would be worth a full 10,000. Looking at it this way, it could be considered 1:100.

"The remaining hundred gold coins, of course, come from the bit of energy I just absorbed. That's energy that can advance you. If you have enough wealth, if you have 1,000 such gold coins, you can even directly advance to Quasi-Legendary!"

His words made the two nod. Now the reasoning made much more sense. If it possessed the power to allow people to advance to Legendary, then no matter how much this experience currency sold for, no one would think it was too expensive.

Horace smiled, stopped talking about the previous topic, and clapped his hands on the table. "You two, what do you want to eat? Come with me!"
