The Li Family and the Liu Family controlled the local salt and cotton textile businesses respectively. In terms of status, the Li Family, which controlled the salt, was naturally higher. Ren Xiaosu could also see that Liu Ting's father was actually more like a younger brother. These two families should be friends that helped each other.
For these two families to suddenly find Meg and tell him to set off in advance, it was probably not as simple as nurturing a Magus.
After Li Chenggong and Liu Ting went back, they definitely talked about the sneak attack on the road, and also talked about the personal grievances between Meg and the Tudor family.
Now that a small fire had suddenly broken out in York Town, many people were saying that a person wearing a white mask had committed arson. Mego believed that Old Xu was there to kill him, and Li Chenggong and Liu Ting would definitely think so too.
That was why the Lee and Yun matriarch had hurried over to urge Mego to Ghent City. They were worried that Mego, the person who had helped them buy the Eye of Truth, would be killed before their son could buy it …
At this time, Li Chenggong's father said to Megor, "I know that Lord Megor has encountered some problems and may be worried about your safety on the road, but you don't have to worry about this. We will send people to protect you on the road."
After hearing this, Ren Xiaosu was sure that his judgment was correct.
However, were Madam Li and Madam Liu so strong-willed? They knew that the Tudors were going to kill him, yet they still dared to send people to protect Meg?
Mego was also a little confused. "How?"
"The Yorkshire Merchant Guild has just organized a group of merchants to head north to Ghent City to purchase the gold and silver wares there," Liu Ting's father said. "The group is huge, with at least a few hundred people traveling together. The guards we arranged have already infiltrated the group to secretly protect Sir Mego."
The Tudor family was too big in the Wizard Nation, so local tyrants like the Li family and the Liu family had to be sneaky if they wanted to protect Mego.
Meg thought for a moment and said, "When do you want me to leave?"
"How about now?" Li Chenggong's father suggested, "The merchants have already gathered in the north of Yorkshire. They were supposed to leave this morning, but I told them to wait for Lord Meigo."
Mei Ge felt helpless. It seemed like Li Chenggong's father was really worried that a long delay would bring trouble. He actually wanted Mei Ge to leave now.
He thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then I'll pack my things and leave."
At this point, Li Chenggong and Liu Ting's father bid their farewells in satisfaction.
The two Sheep Men stayed behind. Ren Xiaosu immediately ordered them to pack up so that they wouldn't eavesdrop on his conversation with Mei Ge.
Ren Xiaosu was puzzled. "You agreed to them just like that? Where's your dignity as a wizard? They're obviously using you."
"The local tyrants are still a little different. Although they are respectful on the surface, that respect is for the wizard organization behind me, not for me," Mego said helplessly. "Although Yorkshire has become my fief, the six southern counties have a real master … the Berkley family."
"Is it also a shaman clan?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"That's right." Meg nodded. "The Berkeley family is also the foundation of a certain great wizard in the secular world, but their authority is not as great as Tudor's. They only have the golden Eye of Truth. In fact, the Li family and the Liu family are both Duke Berkley's men. They just don't have a high status. "
"Oh." Ren Xiaosu understood. The Li family and the Liu family were considered marginal figures in the Berkley family. Now that they wanted to be valued in the system, they wanted to raise their status by cultivating wizards. As long as they had a wizard in their family, Duke Berkley would look at them in a different light and give them more benefits.
In the kingdom of wizards, naturally, only wizards were qualified to enter the real upper class.
The Li family and the Liu family only wanted to get this name card so that they could achieve a leap in their family's social status.
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, "But I don't think we should leave now. It's too hasty."
"Forget it, there's no need to worry about this." Meg smiled bitterly. "Since we've accepted the money, let's just do it for them."
"Alright." Ren Xiaosu was a little helpless. He was still planning to stay here and wait for the little witch's accomplices to come to him.
However, on second thought, with the abilities of those bounty hunters, it wouldn't be difficult for them to find him even if he left for Ghent City.
"Do you have anything to pack?" Meg asked. "I don't have anything to bring here. I'll just pick a few books to read on the way."
"I don't have anything to bring," Ren Xiaosu said. "I'll pick a few books too."
"Oh right, is the Witchcraft Master Manual still with you?" Meg suddenly asked. "Don't read it for now. It's quite heavy to carry."
However, Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Wait, could the book that the little witch wanted to steal be the Witchcraft Master Manual in my hands?
Previously, Ren Xiaosu scoffed at the idea of stealing a book. After all, Meg had left the wizard tower for more than two years. Why would she only steal it when Meg was back? Who was she trying to fool?
However, if the other party wanted to steal the Witchcraft Master Manual, it would make sense because Meg had taken the Witchcraft Master Manual away. She could only steal it when Meg was back!
Ren Xiaosu said to Meg, "I'll take the Witchcraft Master Manual with me. I think it's quite interesting."
Meg looked at Ren Xiaosu strangely. "You don't have to force yourself. Everyone knows that the Witchcraft Master Manual doesn't have any real content. Even if you don't read it, no one will say anything."
"I think it's quite interesting," Ren Xiaosu said.
"As long as you're happy …"
Two Sheepmen carried Meg's clothes and met up with Ren Xiaosu and the others. "Master Meg, the maid has packed your things. Let's go."
Meg looked at them. "Thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, I'll bring you to the black market when we reach Ghent City."
"Thank you, Sir Meigo." Li Chenggong chuckled and said, "Oh right, could you teach us the Wizard Language on the way, Sir Meigo? This way, if we can buy the Eye of Truth in Ghent City, we can start practicing witchcraft immediately."
"No problem." Meg nodded and said to Ren Xiaosu, "You can learn from them too."
"Me?" Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "I won't be learning. You can teach them instead."
Meg was stunned. "Not learning? Didn't you want to learn before? "
"It's too difficult. I'm not learning," Ren Xiaosu said. He had thought about it carefully. Using the Wizarding Language to cast spells, he would have to use the Meditation Scroll for high-level spells. However, the Meditation Scroll was tightly controlled by the Wizarding Families, so it would be too troublesome to get it.
Now that he knew how to cast spells in Chinese, he did not need the Meditation Scroll. Why would he waste so much effort? Although it was a little troublesome to summarize the rules of casting spells in Chinese, at least he did not have to rely on the heavens or the earth. He could only rely on himself.
Liu Ting, who was at the side, muttered softly, "So his eagerness to learn was all an act. No wonder he could only be a servant in Middle Earth."
