Chapter 230 Antolia High School of Magic in Leon’s Eyes
In order to drag the archmage to Antolia and make him work for the Jimena family, Leon had already buried a secret in his heart. seed.
And this seed is to build an Antolia Higher Magic Academy.
This is something that has always been on Albert's mind.
And now...
with the completion of the shadow monster trap, Albert finally saw hope that Leon would fulfill his promise.
"Of course."
Leon nodded seriously.
Although the completion speed of the shadow monster trap can be said to be completely beyond Leon's expectations, this can definitely be regarded as a good thing.
Leon has always been a man of his word.
And to be honest, even without Albert, he would sooner or later build an Antolia Higher Magic Academy on this land.
The world in front of me is completely different from Leon's previous life.
There is magic here, there are various phenomena that are difficult to explain by natural science, as well as the diffuse black fog and the disappeared ancestors.
The most critical point, and what Leon is most concerned about, is that this world may not have the conditions needed to develop earth's technology.
The sulfur and saltpeter needed to prepare gunpowder had not been found anywhere by Leon until this moment.
Even those things that are common to the earth, such as coal, have properties that are different from the coal on the earth.
It is precisely because of this that Antolia's second-generation steam engine uses nightmare fuel instead of the coal that people are accustomed to.
The nightmare fuel is the product of the condensation of black mist, and there may be various secrets hidden in the black mist that Leon has not yet discovered.
All of this requires Leon to change his thinking.
It is obviously impossible to copy the technology tree on the earth, so Leon must combine the characteristics of this world.
Such as potions, such as magic engineering.
The application of magic power and the existence of magic materials made it possible to develop magic engineering and related industries, and also allowed Leon to see a new direction for the development of technology trees.
It is true that Antolia's current talent pool is not enough to support the development of an entire discipline.
But nothing can be achieved overnight. In Leon’s view, Antolia can start from the smallest place!
Who says how big the scale will be?
Plan a piece of land and build several houses.
As long as sufficient scientific research resources are provided, progress can still be made!
Isn't this how Antolia's little red bottle and the massive shadow monster trap in front of her were created?
At worst, we can just build a new campus later!
However, after thinking about it and considering his previous commitment, Leon took the initiative to ask:
"Teacher, what do you have in mind?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Albert couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
He is an archmage, which means that Albert possesses superior magical power, but this does not mean that his abilities in other aspects are equally outstanding.
Just like this moment.
All Albert could think about was the beautiful picture that Leon had described to him, the final result that Leon had described to him.
But...
how to do the process, and how long it will take...
Albert has never thought about these things.
Therefore, Leon's straightforward answers and sudden questions caught the old archmage a little off guard.
"This..."
"Teacher, you didn't have any plans before, right?"
A strange look flashed across Leon's face, and he asked knowingly. Albert: "..."
Upon seeing this, Leon immediately became interested.
"Site selection?"
"..."
"Initial scale?"
"..."
"Which mages do you plan to bring over to teach together?" "..."
"
How do you plan to recruit mage apprentices?"
"Ahem... "
Albert coughed slightly embarrassed.
"Of course the Jimena family is willing to fund the construction of an Antolia Higher Magic Academy, but you also need to know that many things cannot be solved by the Jimena family alone. This also requires your cooperation!
" Ang said matter-of-factly.
"Then what should we do first?"
Hearing this, the enthusiasm in Albert's eyes couldn't help but weaken a bit, become a bit more confused, and a bit more hesitant.
"The first thing is to choose the location. After all, this matter has the most direct connection with the teacher. Therefore, the teacher should take some time to take a walk on both sides of the Bairen River." Now that I have made up my mind to build it
, So even if you just build a few small buildings at the beginning, the locations still need to be carefully screened.
After all...
Antolia High School of Magic, once you hear the name, the surrounding land will be a proper school district house from now on.
"The manpower and money..."
"Don't worry!"
Leon agreed without hesitation:
"Since the teacher has been promised, the Jimena family will definitely honor their promise even if they resort to selling iron or borrowing money to raise funds! "
Hearing this, although Albert didn't burst into tears, he couldn't help but be touched in his heart.
Before that, he felt that his student was just trying to make a fool of himself.
But what he didn't expect was that at this critical moment, Leon would agree so happily, and it was Albert himself who was the one who failed!
And what Leon wants is this effect!
You know, he has been planning for a long time to borrow money for development.
Relying solely on the financial resources of the Jimena family, it is obviously a dream to complete the development of the entire abandoned land.
Therefore, Leon naturally wanted to borrow money.
And you are not afraid of borrowing more, but you are afraid of borrowing less.
For this reason, as early as when the Antolian army marched westward, Leon had already tested the waters by issuing war bonds.
The water temperature is okay!
And now, with the end of the war, Antolia's finances have temporarily become abundant, and many people who wanted to cash in early have already received the money they invested earlier.
This was undoubtedly a good start and left a pretty good reputation for the first batch of bonds issued by Antolia.
Therefore, the sale of abandoned land development bonds was naturally included in Leon's next plan.
Firstly, it is to tie more nobles to Antolia's warships, and secondly, it is to speed up and increase the efficiency of the development of the abandoned land.
After all...
the Moon Elves are not the only ones in the Abandoned Land!
According to the information sent back by Giorgi, the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Antoria in the Moonshadow Forest, compared to the Walras people who are far away in the north of the kingdom, other races living in the abandoned land are far more distant than the Walras people. A closer threat...
