Rod Dick looked at Julian, looked around again, and said, "I have a simpler way. Whether it's a high-level scroll or a low-level scroll, it's divided into five parts according to 30 pieces, so each one is six. As for the extra change, I would like to give thanks to our respected great magician Julian. If it had not been for Lord Julian's hand to open the ring, none of us would have got the relic, would there have been any objection? "
He's very old-fashioned. He knew that Julian wanted these scrolls for a long time. He gave six high-level scrolls and eight intermediate scrolls to the great magician with one mouth. Julian was photographed in a suit. Why not do something generous to others? It is expected that the lington family and Amun dare not object.
Amun naturally would not object. Whatever he got was accidental, and the nephews of the lington family did not dare to object to anything. Rod Dick, with one stroke, divided the scrolls on the table into five parts, each with six high-level and six intermediate ones, and handed the rest of the "odd" to Julian himself.
Smile in my heart, said Julie. These scrolls are the rich legacy of Nero, the most outstanding master of scrolls in the Empire. Although Julian, the high priest of Isis temple, is very rich, the value of this batch of things is at least equal to his total income of seven or eight years. What's more, it's hard to buy them with money.
Rod Dick took two copies on behalf of the promontory state and ordered them to be kept; the nephews of the lington family took two; and amon took the last and put it carefully into a pocket he was carrying with him. Julian looked at Amun and murmured in his heart. His first impression was that it was very difficult to buy off this young foreigner.
Although in the eyes of this adult, almost all people can put a price on the price of profit, but it seems too expensive to buy Amun, because the stranger already has amazing wealth and does not look greedy. Otherwise, he would not return the staff to the promontory city-state. How to deal with this person? If it is difficult to lure, you can only threaten or try other methods.
Julian did not speak, but listen to the mutter: "nine people, 24 scrolls, how to divide?"
Rod Dick said with a smile, "it's not a problem. If you don't want to keep the scroll and want money, I'll buy it in the name of the promontory temple, and I'll buy some personally. The amount of money for purchasing so many scrolls at a time is amazing. I won't let you suffer, but you don't have to worry about too much. "
Hillary Clinton was happy to say, "as long as the city Lord offers a fair price, how can we compare accounting? Change the scroll into money, and it will be convenient to divide it up. "
Tashun shook his head and said, "I hope to keep some of my uncle's scrolls, which can be regarded as a memorial of the family. I am willing to pay the same price as the Lord of the city to buy some from my brothers. However, I can't afford so much money at the moment, so I can only buy a few."
Rod Dick chuckled. "I almost forgot that there are two magicians in your brother, and keeping the scroll is of course useful. If anyone wants to buy the brothers' scrolls, let's bid first. These are the lington family's things. I don't dispute it. "
Tashun quickly explained: "no, no, no, no, how dare I bid in front of the city Lord. I will offer whatever the Lord offers. If you convert all these scrolls into money, you can buy a few more except my own. "
As a result, tashun made a sum of money, leaving two high-level scrolls and three intermediate scrolls. Roddick bought the rest of the scrolls, mostly in the name of the temple and a small part in the name of private. Rod Dick knows that the value of these scrolls is not just money. They allow a low or medium level magician to instantly cast medium and high level magic without consuming his own mana. If there is any conflict in the future, a large number of scrolls are stored in the city-state, which will be a sharp weapon for attack and defense.
Julian looked at rod Dick again, and thought that the Lord of the city was so quick that he bought the file of the lington family at the first time, and used the city-state wealth stored in the temple. Is this city Lord preparing for war? If one day the troops are in the city or the two armies are against each other and send a group of magic masters to attack suddenly with scrolls in hand, it will have a surprising effect on winning.
Julian changed his mind and thought of another possibility. Such a batch of scrolls is not easy to meet in ordinary times. The lington family sold a large number of scrolls at one time. They did not even carefully distinguish the use of each kind of scroll. They were only treated according to the high and intermediate prices. Although rod Dick paid a lot of money, the price was also very cheap compared with other situations.
Rod Dick used his identity and relationship to check the scroll left by Nero to make notes, and privately transferred it to the magicians in a large city-state. The price he could sell was much higher than today's purchase price. This is the way to make money! The more Julian thought, the more he admired him, the more he envied him. He regretted that he had started late, and then he began to think about Amun again.
After the scroll was disposed of, Julian coughed: "Lord Nero has the last item in his will. Let the giver look up one of his personal notes, which is the record of making a scroll. Amun, do you want to see it? By the way, where is that scroll? Have you taken it with you? "
Isn't this a wise question? Amun has long said that the three scrolls were lost and could not be found in the mountains.Amun looked up at Julian, suddenly alert, the great magician looking at his eyes there is an indescribable danger, like a mouse being watched by a cat. Amun "brings out" a special ability from the underworld, which can sense the change of people's inner emotions. Although he does not know the exact idea, he can also detect Julian's bad intentions.
He replied cautiously: "I have reported to the Lord of the city that Lord Nero has indeed left three scrolls alone, but when I was out of danger, I left them in the deep mountain and could not find them again. I don't want to read the records. Anyway, I can't understand them and there's no need to read them again. "
Although he would like to know the specific purpose of the grey nameless scroll, he simply cut off his idea in this case. A civilian who can't use the scroll would not have used it. Moreover, the scroll has been lost. If he wants to read the records written by eju, it is obviously doubtful. Here are a group of cats, and he is the mouse among them.
Lord Dick, the notary of the will, said to Amun that he didn't want to read Nero's personal notes any more. He asked kindly, "Amun, Lord Nero's last wish has been fulfilled. As the city master of the Cape City, he should thank you for your actions. What do you want?"
Amun shook his head and said, "I have received too much. Lord Nero's gift is beyond my imagination. How dare I hope for more? I only ask the Lord of the city one thing. "
Rod Dick: you can say that as long as the city Lord can do it, he will satisfy you
Amun showed some worry and a little embarrassed expression: "I know that staff is very valuable, but I did not expect Lord Nero's legacy is so precious! To tell you the truth, when I came, I hid the staff carefully all the way. I didn't dare to let anyone know. Now I have so much money and valuable things with me. Can you let me leave the promontory City safely
It's a bit impolite to ask this in public, but it's normal for a stranger who has no relatives to worry about it. Rod Dick's face slightly sank a way: "what is this saying, this city-state should thank you, will it embarrass you? Lord Nero's will has been executed. If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. If you don't worry, I can send a guard to escort you
Thank you, Lord of the city! There's no need for a bodyguard. Lord Dick's city-state is the safest place. I want to go today. When I get back to my hometown, I will be the richest person in the area! "
Amun said that he was going to leave. Rod Dick had already spoken in public, so it was not easy to take it back. A stranger in a strange city-state suddenly obtained a surprising wealth, and his eagerness to return to his hometown is understandable. Julian originally wanted to find an excuse to detain Amun, but he did not expect that Amun made such a request in public.
The great magician turned his eyes and said with a smile, "Amun, your noble and selfless conduct should be praised and praised. I want to ask you a few words in private, can I?"
Amun made him laugh and felt a little numb, but he had to nod his head and say, "of course, if you have any questions, please ask."
Julian led him into a quiet room, opened the door to the mountain and said, "Amun, I'm very interested in Lord Nero's letter on the cave and the scroll you lost in the deep mountain. Can you tell me the specific location and process as much as possible?"
If Amun was completely fabricated, there would be a lot of flaws in front of this shrewd great magician. However, this experience was not made up by Amun himself, but the story of the old madman. With a piece of Nero's last words, he said it again from the beginning to the end.
After that, Julian ordered someone to bring him paper and pen, and asked Amun to write down the handwriting he saw in the cave. Amun wrote it again without revealing anything that should not have been revealed. Julian asked Amun to draw a map and ask him how to find the place?
Amun explained: "there are no roads in many places in the deep mountains. The terrain is very complex. It's almost impossible to recall accurately. I'll try my best to show you."
He really drew a picture, which is a sign of the deep mountains and forests in the Youdi River Valley. The terrain is quite complex. If the stroke is slightly deviated, it will be far away. It is almost impossible to find an accurate place according to this picture. But it was good for a mountain hunter to draw it, and he respectfully handed it to Julian.
Julian was still very worried, and suddenly asked, "did not Nero mention bell in his last words?"
"Who is bell?" Amun asked, looking up
Julian shook his head. "You don't know this man is dead. Does his last word mention gods?" In fact, what he wanted to ask was the secret of the gods, but it was not easy to speak directly, so he could only beat around the bush.
Amun asked curiously, "no, all the messages I saw have been written to you just now."
Julian frowned: "Nero, as the chief god of the city, how can his last words not mention gods? Amun, are you hiding something? Just say it, and I won't blame you! "
Amun scratched the back of his head: "how can I know that? I'm just a hunter in the mountains. You must know more than I do. "
Julian stares at Amon, as if to see through the teenager. Amun suddenly found that he couldn't feel the emotion of the great magician. He must be in the state of divine meditation and restrained the information from his body and mind. Julian's magic was much better than amon's, and in front of him, Amun's special ability lost its effect.This discovery made Amun more alert and determined that the great divinity was doubting himself and had another attempt. Julian was mentioned in the old Madman's message, and said that Julian had received the favor of bell. If you have any trouble, you can take out the token and ask him for help, but you should find out the situation first. In this situation, Amun would never dare to take out the keepsake. Instead, he was afraid that Julian would find out that he had something to do with bell.
Julian looked at Amun and suddenly laughed: "you're just a hunter in the mountains. It's useless for you to get those scrolls today. You can't eat them or open them. But it's very useful for a magician like me. I'm willing to pay a lot of money to buy it. Can you sell it to me at the price just given by Lord Dick? "
Amun didn't want to promise or refuse. It's useless for hunters in the mountains to keep magic scrolls. On the other hand, scrolls are not only scrolls, but also valuable things! He thought about it for a while, blinked his eyes and replied, "Dear great magician, if you buy anything in my hometown, it's more expensive to buy one at a time than to buy a lot of things. The more expensive things are, the more so. The stone can't be eaten or opened, but it's money, and the scroll is also money.
You said, if you go to a large place with many magicians and sell these scrolls one by one slowly, can you sell them at a higher price? Anyway, I'm not short of money, so I'm not in a hurry. Is this better? I know that you are a very noble man. Please tell me, this ignorant hunter, my idea is right? "
Julian sighed in his heart. Amun looked simple, but he was not stupid at all! He has been certain that Amun must have concealed something, and he needs a good interrogation. Even if he is severely tortured, he must take out valuable clues from the young man. If Amun knew about his past with bell, he could not stay in the world even if there was a chance!
Since Amun asked, Julian couldn't say that his idea was wrong. He only laughed and said, "Amun, you are very smart. It's hard to be honest and selfless. You are indeed a good child worthy of praise. I heard you said you were leaving today. I wish you a good journey and the gods will protect you
At the same time, Julian had already made up his mind about what to do with amon in public, but when amon left the city, he would be intercepted and interrogated in secret in a place where there was no one on the way. As the matter he wanted to ask was very important, the great magician even wanted to do it himself. In any case, his inspection of the promontory city-state has ended, and he will leave tomorrow. On the way to do something, no one can ask.
Even if he rode a fast horse, it would take several days to leave the promontory city. However, Amun could not escape from the palm of his great magician. At that time, he would use all means to interrogate everything. No matter what was asked, Amun must not stay.
Julian was about to take amon back to the hall and say a few words of encouragement and commendation. Suddenly, someone said in a loud voice: "Lord Julian, the latest instructions from the saint have been sent to the promontory city-state, for you and Lord dick!"
Julian was surprised. He had completed the inspection task and was going back tomorrow. How could the young Saint Mary give the latest orders at this time? Was there any major change? He quickly tidied up his clothes and went to the main hall to meet the instructions of the virgin, and the city-state and temple officials led by Lord Dick were also respectfully prepared.
The order of the virgin, rod Dick, had known for a long time, gently reprimanded the young city Lord for his shortcomings in handling Temple affairs, praised the achievements and talents of Julian high priest, and ordered Julian to stay in the Cape city for a year to guide and supervise the temple affairs here.
This order was greatly beyond Julian's expectation. Today, he had just got a batch of precious scrolls in the promontory city-state, but when he was in a good mood, he felt like he was suddenly beaten. He did not want to stay in the promontory city for a year, and he was afraid of a long night away from the temple of Isis. It seems that only people can send letters to Meng Fei Si, and confer with two other high priests, and find an excuse for the holy woman to make another order, because he urgently needs to tune him back in advance.
There is still a little trouble in front of him. I'm afraid he can't intercept Amun himself. He can only send someone else. As for interrogation and murder, we must let the most trusted confidant do it. This "secret" can not leak out at all.
The messenger who came to deliver the order was the deputy chief of the Archives Department of Memphis City, who was also a distinguished adult. Rod Dick naturally wanted to have a good reception and hold a grand banquet to thank and welcome Lord Julian for staying in the city. From this afternoon until late at night, the city officials were very busy. Once again, the city Lord was too busy to go home. Of course, no one cared about Amun.
Amun didn't know. Maria saved him by giving the order of time. Julian, the great magician, did not have the time and opportunity to take him in person. But he himself was very careful, and left Cape city that afternoon, driving the carriage from tashun lington, with little luggage and a cat.
The servants in rod Dick's house were reluctant to part with the young man, for they had heard that Amun had given 32 sacred stones to the Lord of the city to give them away. Everyone could get a large sum of money! In particular, several gatekeepers led Amun's carriage to the intersection, and even watched him leave with tears.Amun's next destination is mengfeisi city. Somehow, he always wants to go there. The city of Memphis is west of the promontory City, but he leaves through the east gate. If someone pays close attention to it, he will think that the stranger is going back to his hometown. He is from the remote valley of the Euphrates, and he should go to that place.
