Douglas's following life was also very leisurely, and the small manor he bought was said to be "small," but that was in comparison to what.
It covered an area of about 20 acres, which was about the size of two football fields. It was not considered much among the nobles, but because there were only a few of them living here, it was still possible for him to use the empty space for magic experiments.
He didn't lack money or patience. He was just waiting for Roland to enchant his ten pieces of equipment and then talk about the magic regeneration equipment.
After he settled in, there were some sneaky figures walking around outside the manor at first. The small noble who tricked the merchant didn't really want to give up what he was about to get, but after inquiring about the background of the new owner of the manor, he immediately withdrew everyone.
The Golden Sons couldn't be messed with.
The people of Delpon were more aware of how strong the Golden Sons were than people from other cities.
Douglas had thought he would be bored here for a month, but he didn't expect that thirteen days later, someone would come to his door.
The other tycoon was someone the two of them knew in reality.
This man looked very fat … Generally speaking, players were very well-proportioned, but their body shape could be changed.
For example, if you didn't eat often, you would starve and become thin, and you would be thin even if you died and resurrected.
Eating too much would make you fat.
This was the case in the real world.
Players were born professionals, and under normal circumstances, they almost never got fat.
Because casual exercise could consume a lot of calories, and the man in front of him ate himself into a fat man. It was really amazing.
Douglas looked at him, looked him up and down for a while, shook his head helplessly, and said, "You're clearly a thin man in reality, so why do you have to eat until you're fat in the game?"
"You also know that in reality, my stomach isn't good, and I can't eat much. Since almost everything in this world is real, I naturally have to eat well."
Douglas shook his head helplessly.
The fat man in front of him, whose online name was Charles, was the chairman of the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce.
Because he was doing business, his level was still level two, and then he ate delicious food every day without stopping, and he grew fatter and fatter.
He became what he was now.
"I went to see Roland just now." The fat man looked at Douglas. "He said you were going to make ten weapons and then a set of magic regeneration equipment, right?"
Douglas nodded.
"Can you not make magic regeneration equipment and let me cut in line?" The fatty smiled. "I also have fourteen pieces of equipment that I need Roland's help to enchant."
Fourteen pieces!
Douglas said with some envy, "It seems that your Chamber of Commerce has made a lot of money in the past two years. But I'm sorry, I don't want to give this opportunity to others. "
Fatty Charles leaned back in his chair and said, "I know this is a rare opportunity, so … I can make the decision to give you the land in the northern suburbs of Lu City. Of course, the price will be increased by five points."
"So willing?" Douglas was stunned. "Aren't you afraid that your father will beat the shit out of you?"
"You make it sound so disgusting." Charles frowned. "Actually, my old man also knows about this. He agreed."
Douglas closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He said, "It seems that your parents are very optimistic about your 'business' in the game. I can give up the land in Lu City, but do you have a shareholding in the Chamber of Commerce in this world? I want a share."
Charles froze and showed a troubled look. "You also know that I don't like others interfering in my business."
"I'm not interfering, I'm just buying shares and getting dividends," Douglas said with a smile. "You're in such a hurry to make fourteen pieces of equipment that you're in trouble. When my ten pieces of equipment are made and my brother puts them on, he can go to the Chamber of Commerce to help you. Plus your fourteen pieces of equipment, I don't think there are many people in Hollevin who can pose a threat to us except for the two freaks, Roland and Schuck. "
Charles was still considering.
"There's strength in numbers," Douglas continued.
Charles looked helplessly at Douglas. "Let me think about it for a few days."
Douglas smiled. "No problem."
Generally speaking, this meant that he agreed, but just didn't want to "admit defeat" so easily and used this way to find a way out.
With a sigh, Charles suddenly said, "I heard that Queen Andonara is still staying in Roland's manor. Why don't we pay her a visit? Maybe there'll be an unexpected harvest. "
Charles twisted and rubbed his thumb and index finger a little wretchedly.
Douglas's smiling expression turned cold. "Don't mess around, Charles. We still have to rely on Roland for our equipment, and if you piss him off, it'll be you and me who suffer. Haven't you had enough of women in real life? "
"But Andonara is really different from the average woman, just watching her fight videos …"
Douglas reached out and stopped Charles from continuing. "Charles, I know you're interested in food and have a poor resistance to beauty, but if you mess around and touch women you shouldn't, I'll reconsider your abilities and character. Not to mention the matter of buying shares, I'll even reconsider the matter of cutting the queue for fourteen pieces of equipment. "
Charles took a deep breath. "Alright, it's my fault."
Douglas nodded in satisfaction.
In the past thirteen days, Roland had actually enchanted all ten pieces of equipment, except for enchantments like Sharpness, Equipment Reinforcement, and Life Enhancement, according to the different pieces of equipment, everything had been added.
Now all the equipment was missing an enchantment, Automatic Repair.
Because Automatic Repair would fail, the materials that Roland gave him were actually prepared in three sets for each piece of equipment.
Roland didn't want to bear all the risks himself, and the probability of successful enchantment with three sets of materials was about 85%.
In other words, as long as his luck wasn't too bad, there should still be 30 sets of materials left to enchant ten pieces of equipment.
Even if his luck was really too bad, he could at most add four or five more sets of materials and still succeed.
To improve the success rate, Roland specially rested for a day in the manor.
The next day, he came to the Magic Tower's adventure room.
Six small hills of magic materials were piled in front of Roland, and after a moment of silence, Roland began to use his intuition to construct Automatic Repair magic patterns.
… …
… …
Automatic Repair was a fairly advanced enchantment technique, and Roland enchanted ten pieces of equipment with three different effects, all of which took about thirteen days.
However, it took him 15 days to give ten pieces of equipment the auto-repair effect.
Roland's luck wasn't very good, and he failed three times at the beginning before he put Automatic Repair on the first piece of equipment.
The second piece was also a success on the fourth attempt … but it was also after the second successful enchantment that Roland became more proficient, and he touched the doorway to this kind of causal magic.
Now the heavy door of divination magic had been pushed open by Roland a crack, and through this crack, Roland "saw" a lot of things.
He benefited a lot.
Things after that were simple. The remaining eight pieces of equipment could be enchanted successfully in an average of 1.5 attempts, and then there were ten sets of materials left.
The price of each set of materials was about 20 gold coins.
Plus the 20 gold coins for each piece of equipment, so Roland made a huge profit from this single deal.
Two hundred gold coins worth of magic materials, and two hundred gold coins worth of processing fees.
And it could also be practiced and improve his proficiency in causal magic.
Roland knew that Douglas had taken up residence in the city of Delpon; Vivian had told him about this.
As the de facto ruler of the entire city, Roland's intelligence ability was now very strong.
And a figure as important as Douglas would naturally be noticed by the gangs in Delpon, and then the intelligence would fall into Vivian's hands.
After making the equipment, Roland returned to the manor and had the servants prepare a dinner party, inviting Douglas, Charles, Hawk, Lynk, and all the other players.
Some of his partners in the city.
Then he also invited the mayor's family.
John Junior's expression was rather ugly when he received the invitation.
His sister and mother, however, were quite happy.
These two women had quite a good relationship with Andonara.
And most noble women enjoyed dinner parties.
It was one of their few nightlife entertainment.
Douglas was quite excited when he received the invitation, which meant that Roland had already made the equipment.
At the same time, as an admirer of Roland, Douglas was even a little nervous.
Charles took the invitation, looked at it for a while, and said with a smile, "Roland is quite an interesting man, actually taking control of a city without a sound. I thought my Cornucopia was already quite powerful, with its influence extending to many places, but compared to him, it's still a long way off. Besides, this man is extremely strong on his own, and in combination, my achievements aren't worth mentioning … How elite do you think a man like this should be in reality? "
"Probably at the level of the top scorer in the college entrance examination, or almost." Douglas thought for a moment and continued, "And then in college, he should also be an influential figure, the very impressive kind."
Charles shook his head. "It could also be an opportunity. Standing in the wind, even a pig can take off."
"Heh, if it was just opportunity, he wouldn't have become the number one Mage among players." Douglas chuckled coldly. "After all, I'm also a Mage, and I know very well how difficult spells are to learn. He's the real deal. "
Charles nodded. "That's true."
Then, the two of them brought their "guard" friends to Roland's manor.
They handed over the invitation to the butler, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Roland and Andonara entertaining guests in the middle of the garden.
Roland was still wearing a magic robe, but Andonara had changed into a queen's outfit.
The palace dress, which was green on top and purple on the bottom, and the colorful crown on her head, all made Andonara, who was already extremely beautiful, look like a goddess who had descended to earth.
Douglas only took one more look in amazement before moving his gaze away.
It was Charles who was amazed for a long time, then couldn't help but mutter, "Roland, this kid, is quite playful. What high-end tastes."
Roland saw the two come in from the corner of his eye, turned around, and walked over to them.
