On the streets of Fein City's main city, Byrne, who was dressed in black attire, adjusted his glasses, arranged for the guards and servants to go to dinner, and looked for the similarities between this city and the city where he lived in his childhood.
Soon he frowned deeply because he could see garbage everywhere, completely unmanaged, and the sewage flowing on the ground was even filthier than Nasir.
People were coming and going in a hurry, and the construction of houses on both sides of the street was very chaotic and crowded. The surrounding area gave Byrne a breathless and depressing feeling.
With the emergence of steam engines and factories in recent years, people from the towns and rural areas on the east coast have gradually begun to gather in Fein City. The immigration of foreign people is mainly concentrated in the suburbs. The overall trend of population explosion in many cities on the Oden continent is no longer inevitable. avoid.
He quickly walked toward the center of Fein City as if fleeing, and could see that the surrounding environment was gradually getting better.
The streets in the city center are spacious and flat, with clean pavement and no garbage. Tall and lush trees are planted on both sides. The sunlight shines through the gaps in the branches and forms mottled light and shadow on the ground.
Byrne could surmise that this stretch of downtown streets was where wealthy people lived.
The boy wearing a hat came over and gave Byrne a shy expression.
"Sir, do you want to buy a newspaper? There is big news about the Qiyao Alliance today! Oh, that may not be accurate, because there will be no Qiyao Alliance in the future."
Byrne was stunned for a moment, seeing many people around him who had bought newspapers looking shocked. Obviously the boy was not lying, something shocking and big had indeed happened.
Although Qiyao Alliance is a bit far away from Siyat, Byrne is still curious about what happened, and he has never read a newspaper in Nasir. He has only heard people talk about this kind of thing, and he wants to try to buy a copy today.
"Okay, I want one."
So he spent one copper to buy a newspaper from the newsboy and read it in his hand. The name of the newspaper was "Siyat World News".
Byrne was surprised to see that it was filled with a lot of knowledge and intelligence from all over the world, it was like a simple paper treasure!
Soon he discovered that the largest page of the newspaper used huge fonts to explain the huge changes in the Northern Qiyao Alliance, and his expression changed instantly.
"If these weren't two pranks, it would be absolutely horrific."
The first thing was that the official name of the Qiyao Alliance was officially changed to the Qiyao Empire, completely ending the republican system that had existed for many years. A demi-human officer successfully ascended the throne as the emperor of the Qiyao Empire.
"Miller Corsiga of the Qiyao Empire comes from a little-known noble family. People today call him the 'God of War.' He is probably one of the most powerful knights in the Oden continent and even in the world today. one."
He took a deep breath. If the first thing was just extremely shocking, then the next thing would make people feel that the whole world was inexplicably ridiculous.
The Church of the Sun, one of the five orthodox churches, openly recognizes the orthodox status of the Recast Order and regards it as the sixth orthodox church!
"It is simply unreasonable. The advent of the God of Recast is the most serious event that has had the most serious negative impact on the world in the past century."
Back then, He slaughtered a large number of nobles and extraordinary beings in one night after Qiyao's arrival, and even the original emperor died.
Bainke still fully remembers how countries and churches viewed the Recast Order as a scourge. Before reading today's newspaper, he could not imagine the situation in which the Recast Order was now recognized as the Orthodox Church.
The Recasting Order regards "forge" and "steel" as their symbols. The steam engine, which has become increasingly popular and promoted in recent years, is said to be their invention.
"At least neither of these things can affect Si Yat. No matter what happens in the north of the continent, it is still too far from here." He murmured to himself.
Siyate, one of the four eastern countries, is located in the southeast of the Oden continent, still far away from Qiyao.
The city center was relatively cleaner, and the surrounding houses were no longer so depressing. But Byrne did not relax. The content in the newspaper just now was too shocking.
"The Church of the Sun recognized the status of the Recast Church. Even if it did such a terrible thing, it would still have a chance to change public opinion?"
He recalled the many history books he had read, and suddenly felt that in a few decades, the hearts of the people living in Recast Church would really be different.
"If the Recast Church can become the Orthodox Church and occupy a place, one day, Dawn may not be able to become orthodox in people's minds."
There was a trace of desire in his heart, and he clearly felt that this was a huge goal that was almost too difficult to achieve. Even the crazy idea of exterminating the Meyer family was more practical.
Ten minutes later, Byrne found the bank in Fein City.
Nasir did not have a bank presence. He curiously walked into the extremely bright lobby and saw the light of the candles in the crystal chandelier reflected on the marble floor.
The Fisher family only had chandeliers with many curved arms and candles. Byrne had never seen a more beautiful crystal chandelier, and he couldn't help but raise his head to take a second look.
Fisher's house will also have such a chandelier in the future, he thought silently.
A middle-aged dwarf with a big beard came over. He was wearing loose bright yellow clothes, had a kind face, and looked very kind and friendly.
"Hello, sir, hahaha, what do you want to do? You can tell me anything, especially about money!"
Nordival Bank, a giant joint-stock bank spread across the continent, is said to have a particularly high proportion of dwarves among its senior management, and this was the first time Byrne saw this rare alien race in the East in Siat.
He really had too many "first meeting" experiences today.
"Loan, I want to borrow money." Byrne said without hesitation.
The dwarf, who was only about one meter tall, squinted his eyes, as if leaning on the stone pillar of a human face, and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! Okay, okay! I swear I like the word you just said! You can call me Mival , I am the head of Nordival’s branch in Fein City!”
Mivar paused and continued: "However, we are also afraid of bad debts when lending, and we need you to provide some reliable proof."
Byrne calmly took out the certificate of knighthood signed by the Dark Iron Duke himself, and the dwarf Minval suddenly smiled.
"Hahahaha! I see, since we are all people with status and status, it will be easy to talk!"
After leaving the bank, Byrne's heart became extremely complicated.
He and Eileen had discussed the loan development matter a week ago. They both believed that as long as they used the ability of the "pharmacist" to continuously develop and improve new medicines, the Fisher family would be able to earn a lot of money continuously.
But after taking out a loan of fifty gold coins, Byrne, who was borrowing money for the first time, always felt a heavy psychological burden. It would be very troublesome if he couldn't repay it in the end.
Later, he found a local businessman in Fein City based on the address given by John the Sea Merchant, and the two parties made an appointment to meet at the other party's home.
Byrne led the servants and guards to the luxurious villa, which was more magnificent than the mayor's home and even similar to Baron Hoven's home in Nasir. He soon realized that he was going to see a real big businessman.
According to John, most of the goods he shipped by sea were dumped nearby with the help of Mr. Jin, who had extremely strong abilities and connections.
Mr. Jin is a Siyat man who is two meters tall and weighs at least three hundred kilograms. He has not even a single hair on his smooth head, and has a ferocious look like a butcher's.
It is said that his brother-in-law is the lord of Fein City, Viscount Baislow.
The interior of Mr. Jin's villa can only be described as magnificent. Deep in his heart, Byrne had a vague guess that although the other party was an ordinary person, he was probably richer than Baron Hoven, who was an extraordinary nobleman.
While the two were eating, they started talking about business.
"Do you want to sell this thing?"
He was holding a new red potion in his hand, and his low tone seemed to be aggressive, but Byrne always felt that the other party had no ill intentions and was just confused.
Byrne nodded well prepared and explained calmly:
"This is a powerful detoxification potion that can remove the toxin effects caused by all conventional toxins and low-level mysterious creatures. The average price on the market is three gold coins, and I only need less than one gold coin."
Mr. Jin thought for a moment and continued to ask: "Shelf life and transportation and storage methods?"
Byrne continued: "The shelf life is three years. After three years, the effect will weaken until it completely fails after five years. Remember not to bump it during transportation and storage."
He was confident of making money because the cost of the new powerful antidote was so low that it only cost a dozen silver coins, so the profit margin was huge.
Mr. Jin shook his head, turned to stare at the young man with eyes full of experience and experience, as if reading his character, and said calmly:
"It's still meaningless. Only a few people in the country are poisoned every day. Ordinary antidotes can handle most situations. The market share is too small, and you may have forgotten the costs of warehousing, transportation and publicity."
Byrne was stunned for a while and fell into a long silence. Mr. Jin was not quite right. In fact, he had already considered the costs of those things, but he didn't expect that Mr. Jin didn't care about the benefits at all.
It turned out that the big businessman who was backed by the Viscount family didn't look down on petty profits at all. The bald man in front of him probably just wanted to make a lot of money.
He suddenly smiled, his eyes filled with confidence just like the Lucius he once was, and he continued speaking casually and easily:
"Actually, our Fisher family is cooperating with a genius alchemy caster who has strong research and development capabilities in medicine."
Byrne's eyes were full of confidence, as if he had succeeded, and he smiled:
"As long as you are willing to help, we can come up with other new medicines within a year, and we will give priority to cooperating with you then."
Mr. Jin finally showed a playful smile, nodded and said:
"Well, it sounds interesting now. Then I need to sign an agreement and contract with you. If you can't come up with something new within a year, I will ask your Fisher family to compensate you."
The powerful antidote is just one result of the "pharmacist's" ability. He will definitely be able to create more new medicines in the future.
Byrne couldn't hide his inner excitement, clenched his fists slightly, smiled and said: "Okay, I am willing to sign the contract."
