Chapter 118 Returning to Montenegro temporarily to claim
"Sister, the dragon blood fruit you asked for is here!"
With that said, Levi walked into Flora's alchemy room holding two fruits that looked like dragon fruit.
Although the dragon blood fruit looks like a dragon fruit, it is actually the fruit of an extraordinary magical plant.
The dragon blood fruit in the Fontaine Kingdom is generally produced in the Western Region, and its output is not high. In addition, preservation and transportation are difficult. It costs about ten gold coins for the Marquis Palace to purchase one dragon blood fruit.
Ten gold coins is the total annual income of an ordinary family of six.
Dragon blood juice is rich in juice and sweet in taste, and if consumed for a long time, it is very helpful for improving the spiritual power of wizards. Therefore, dragon blood fruit became Flora's favorite fruit, and almost everyone in the Marquis Palace knew about it.
In the Marquis Mansion, dragon blood fruit is almost Flora's exclusive fruit. Flora has a quota of 100 dragon blood fruits every year. This expense alone is equivalent to raising a small team of third-level regular soldiers.
"Not bad, not bad, this time the action is quite fast.
Now~ You can eat one too, and we both have one!"
As she said that, Flora ignored Levi and picked up a dragon blood fruit on her own. , peeled off the peel, and gnawed hard.
Levi picked up the remaining dragon blood fruit and didn't pay much attention. He peeled the fruit slowly and took a bite.
After tasting it carefully, Levi said with a smile: "This dragon blood fruit is indeed delicious, senior sister has good taste!"
Flora turned her head, trying not to look at the dragon blood fruit in Levi's hand, and replied viciously: " Of course, it doesn't matter who I am, sister, the things I like must be good!"
Levi felt a little confused about Flora's sudden change of attitude. He didn't realize how he had offended the flat-chested little loli.
If there was a maid close to Flora here, Levi would probably be able to get the answer from her.
Flora usually values the dragon blood fruit very seriously, and she would never share this fruit with anyone except her parents and teacher Yelena.
After all, it takes three or four days to eat one pill, and she doesn’t even think it’s enough.
And Li Wei was almost the first person besides these people who made her willing to share the dragon blood fruit. Of course, the flat-chested little loli still felt a little distressed, so she reacted like this.
Just when Flora was immersed in eating, trying hard not to look at the dragon blood fruit she shared, Levi suddenly spoke again.
"Senior sister, I have to go back to my territory tomorrow to deal with some things, so I have to go back a little earlier today to pack my things."
"Ah?!"
Flora looked up suddenly, and her fair and tender face was covered with bright red juice. For more than half of the time, Levi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"Why are you laughing!" Flora frowned, and her fierce look made Levi completely unable to hold back and laughed out loud.
"Disgusting!" Flora didn't bother to wipe her mouth and hit Levi with a pink fist.
Levi didn't hide, and let Flora hammer her twice, causing her to let out a fierce breath, and then the scene became quiet.
Li Wei continued to explain: "Senior sister, there are some things in my territory that I need to go back and deal with. Yesterday I asked the Marquis for instructions and got the approval. I will set off early tomorrow morning, so I have to go back and clean up later. Something."
"Oh, I know." Although Flora didn't say anything, the disappointment in her expression was obvious.
After hesitating for a while, Flora couldn't help but ask: "How long will you go back? Will you return to Snow Dragon Fortress?"
Levi replied with a smile: "I will definitely return to Snow Dragon Fortress. Are you still shouldering the combat mission entrusted to me by the Marquis?"
"But as for the specific time, it could be a week at the earliest and twenty days at the latest." "Senior sister, are you reluctant to leave me?"
"No way! I just... I'm just afraid that no one will help me!
Yes, that's right, there are other people who are more clumsy than you, and they are not worthy of being my assistant, sister!"
Levi looked at Flora's red face, and for a moment he couldn't tell what was wrong. It wasn't the dragon blood fruit that turned it red or it was her who turned red.
However, Levi didn't intend to provoke Flora any more. He quickly ate the dragon blood fruit in his hand and said, "Senior sister, you have to take care of yourself. I'm leaving first! Don't miss me too much!
" , Levi pinched Flora's cheek before Flora could react, and then quickly escaped from the alchemy room.
"Levi! You bad guy!"
It took three full seconds for Flora to react. She held her red face and sat there without going out to chase Levi. She didn't know what she was thinking.
Fortunately, Levi closed the soundproof door of the alchemy room when he went out, otherwise Flora's shout would probably have attracted half of the people in the wizard tower to teach Levi a lesson.
These days, Li Wei has nothing to do except help the little rich woman.
First of all, the batch of materials he asked Slender Monkey Greg to buy has arrived.
Slender Monkey Greg really lived up to Levi's expectations.
Levi gave Greg a budget of five thousand gold coins, but in the end he only spent four thousand gold coins, and the quality of the goods was not bad.
After being sucked by the little rich woman, Levi became excited again and generously rewarded the thin monkey Greg with 200 gold coins, which was twice the bonus he agreed on.
Although Slender Monkey Greg had already expected Levi's bonus, he didn't expect that his lord would not only give him the bonus as promised, but also double it.
The so-called reputation of aristocrats is relative.
Normally, their credibility is only valid for other nobles. When faced with low-status civilians and businessmen, the promises of noble gentlemen are often just big cakes.
For Greg, if Levi can give him half of the promised bonus, then Master Levi will get full marks in his heart.
But Levi directly gave Greg double the bonus, which made him choke and speechless.
In the end, Greg swore to the sky, witnessed by many of Li Wei's subordinates, that he would be loyal to Li Wei to the death and would never betray him in this life!
Although several "core figures" under Levi, such as Harland, Bellam and others, looked down upon Greg, a lowly businessman, Master Levi was still very happy.
As the power under his command expands at a visible speed, the affairs of the Monterey family will become complicated.
The lord does not need to do everything personally, and many things can be delegated to his subordinates.
It's just that because the Monterey family's foundation is too shallow, Levi now feels that he is increasingly lacking loyal and capable talents.
Greg appeared very timely, and he was able to free up Levi's time and energy on purchasing, sales and other commercial activities.
Closer to home, Li Wei's return this time is not a matter of "not returning home without wealth, just like walking at night in brocade clothes". He has a lot of things to deal with this time.
Levi only went back this time for one person and one fish. He asked Fat Zi to return to Fort Monterey with a belly full of extraordinary materials.
That's right, Mr. Levi is ready to activate the original extraordinary equipment assembly line in Fort Monterey to explode equipment!
Dear friends, if you don’t use the recommendation votes in your hands, they will expire the next day. Why not vote for me!
