Laura looked at the boundless land and said, "Yes, our kingdom, our own kingdom." Just thinking about it made people excited.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Yes, our own Kingdom. When Grandpa Green and the others come back, we'll discuss the issue of the 100 thousand people. When spring comes, the 100 thousand people will arrive. Although these people are Beastmen, they have been living in the Prairie for a long time, so they might not know how to farm. It seems like we need to quickly go to Rosen Empire and buy some human slaves." Zhao Hai smiled faintly.
Laura nodded, "Yes, but before that, shouldn't we go see Bell and settle the matter of the milk wine with him? Then we can make our move, what do you think?"
Zhao Hai nodded, "Yes, we should. We can leave Stony Mountain and then go to Casa City to take a look. From there, we can go to Issac Family's territory and find Bell to settle the matter of the milk wine. At the same time, we can ask him if he has any connections in Carson City. This will be very important for our next move. But this time, we can't go out as Dark Mages, that would be inappropriate."
Laura nodded, "Of course it's inappropriate. If you go out as a Dark Mage, you would immediately be suspected. Let's go back first and wait for Grandpa Green and the others to come back. Then we can discuss it with them."
Zhao Hai nodded and turned to look at the snow outside. Then he led the three women back to the fort. Not long after the four sat down, Green and the others came back. This time, in addition to Green, Merine, and Kun, Shue also came back.
Shue hadn't been in the fort for some time. He was scouting the terrain of the nearby Iron Mountain, this was a task given to him by Green.
Shue had been scouting the surrounding mountains for some time. Green and the others wanted to know everything about the mountain, what was there, where was suitable for mining, where was suitable for logging.
Green and the others were wearing rabbit fur cloaks. Obviously, the temperature outside couldn't be compared to inside the fort. But because the fort was too warm, they could easily take off their cloaks.
When Green and the others saw that Zhao Hai had returned, they stared blankly. But then they were very happy. Green smiled and said, "Young Master, why are you back so early today? Have you dealt with the matters in the prairie? "
Zhao Hai nodded and told them about the matters in the prairie. He also told them about the Radiant Church's training of ultimate weapons and beastman children, then sending them back to the prairie to deal with the scarecrows. These matters could be regarded as confidential.
This was the first time that Green and the others heard about these matters. When Zhao Hai finished, Green couldn't help but frown, "I didn't think that the Radiant Church would have such a plan. Young Master, I think we should tell the League of Dark Mages about this plan. If they know about it, then it wouldn't be bad for us. If they don't know, then we should tell them about it so that they can prepare themselves. Most importantly, they can deal with the Radiant Church, this would reduce a lot of pressure on us."
Zhao Hai nodded, "I was just about to talk about this matter. This time, I'll have to wait until spring before going to the prairie. I think we can use this time to deal with our matters. I want to go to Casa City to take a look, then I'll go to Iksa Territory to look for Bell. After finding Bell, not only can we settle the Milk Wine business, we can also tell him about the information we obtained. Then we can ask him if he has any acquaintances in Rosen Empire's capital, Carson City. This way, it would be more convenient for us to develop there. Most importantly, we can open up a market for the prairie's goods as soon as possible."
Quinn John nodded, "Right, Carson City is known as the continent's largest commodity distribution center, it's indeed a good place. Our goods wouldn't even be able to make a splash there. But our Milk Wine can't be digested by Bell alone, so we can sell it in Carson City. But Carson City is filled with Rosen Empire's big shots, all of them are greedy by nature. If we can't find a strong backer, then we wouldn't be able to escape the fate of the Purcell Duchy. Bell is a member of the League of Dark Mages, he might have his own network. I heard that there are a lot of Dark Mages serving in the Rosen Empire's army, this proves that the Rosen Empire isn't that averse to Dark Mages. The League of Dark Mages might have a lot of influence there, we can take advantage of this point." Quinn John nodded, "That's right.
Zhao Hai nodded, "Grandpa Quinn John is right, we can take advantage of this. But now there's a problem, I want to go to Bell, but I can't go as a Dark Mage, I can only change my identity. What kind of identity should we use?"
Green chuckled, this was indeed a problem. In the Aksu Empire, Dark Mages were investigated thoroughly, so if Zhao Hai appeared as a Dark Mage, it would be the same as telling others who he was.
Green looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, what kind of identity do you want to appear as?"
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid I can't be a merchant, I think I should appear as a Mage, but I can't be a Dark Mage. Now that the Space can use both Fire and Earth element magic, I think I should appear as a Dual Element Mage. Moreover, it would be best to be a bit arrogant, a bit ostentatious, this way people wouldn't suspect me."
Green nodded, "There's nothing wrong with being high-profile. With our current strength, we don't need to be afraid of anyone. Even if they know our identity, what can they do to us? If they send 9th ranks to deal with us, we'll make sure that they won't be able to return. The same goes for the army. Therefore, it's good to be high-profile."
Zhao Hai smiled, "I don't want to reveal my identity right now, if those guys know who I am, although we don't need to be afraid, it would still be very disadvantageous for our future development. Fake identities can be exposed, if exposed, we can just change it, but our real identity must not be exposed."
Kun smiled and said, "That's also good. A dual-element Mage, being too low-key isn't good. You should know that dual-element Mages aren't many in the continent. These people are generally geniuses, so they are a bit arrogant. But we still need to let Little Hai prepare, at the very least, we need to do some simple makeup."
Zhao Hai scratched his head, "How do we draw this?"
Quinn John looked at Zhao Hai, then turned to Laura and said, "This will depend on Laura. Laura, draw Little Hai as a playboy."
The group chuckled, Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Hai, you must dye your hair. I have some hair dye powder, you can dye it golden. Stick a mustache on your lips, so you will look older. Also, wear a pair of pink crystal glasses."
Zhao Hai's forehead was filled with black lines, "Are you sure you want to dye your hair, stick a mustache, and wear pink glasses? Can't you change it to a different color? "
Laura smiled and said, "Pink is good, pink is very popular in the continent right now. I saw a lot of young masters of noble families wearing pink crystal glasses, they are very beautiful. Rest assured, I have a pair of pink gold rimmed glasses, I'll give it to you later."
Zhao Hai shook his head, he decided not to care about it, and let Laura and the others do as they please. But he still turned to Laura and said, "What about you? If you go out like this, wouldn't you be more eye-catching? I think there are a lot of people in the continent who know you compared to me, right? "
Laura smiled faintly and said, "I'm simple, I'll just dye my hair and wear a veil. You should know that the female companions of noble young masters generally wear veils. They don't want their companions to be appreciated by others." Laura smiled faintly and said, "I'll just dye my hair and wear a veil.
Zhao Hai could only smile bitterly, he really didn't know what to say. This was the difference between men and women. Generally, only Dark Mages would wear a veil while women could wear a veil casually.
Green nodded and said, "That's also good. But one day, you will need to use a car, an ordinary car won't do, you need to be gorgeous. Laura's car can't be used, there are too many people who have seen it, they can recognize it at a glance. The Radiant Church's car also can't be used, people can recognize it at a glance. Have you thought about what kind of car you want to use?"
Zhao Hai knit his brows, to be honest, he really didn't think about this. If he wanted to pretend to be a silk pants, he would need a good car. It seems like whether it was on Earth or in the Ark Continent, a good car could raise a man's status.
But the problem was that he didn't have a good car. This made Zhao Hai a bit embarrassed. In the Ark Continent, good cars were generally made of good materials. Currently, Zhao Hai didn't have any good materials, so he didn't have a good car.
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "Getting a good car in such a short time is really difficult."
Laura knit her brows and said, "It's not like we don't have a way. We can dismantle the Radiant Church's lightwood carriage and use the lightwood to make a new one. Currently, there are a lot of carriages in the continent that use lightwood. As long as we don't make one like the one used by the Radiant Church, it'll be fine."
Kun nodded and said, "Alright, I'll immediately arrange it. We've brought some craftsmen, and among the beastmen, there are also some craftsmen who can make carriages. I think it'll be done in a few days. But what kind of magic beast do you want to use to pull the carriage?"
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and said, "How about using the large-horned bull? This magic beast's speed is average, but its endurance is very good. Most importantly, this magic beast is unique to the beastmen. If we use this magic beast to pull the carriage, we can let those people know that we have a good relationship with the beastmen. This way, when we buy beastmen products, they wouldn't be suspicious. "
