Commander Berkeley's Concerns

Padesto City Anti-Guard Regiment

Commander Berkeley stood on Training Ground wearing silver standard armor, and a team of Half-Elf Warrior was selecting war horses.

Now that the infantry combat training of the city defense Guard Regiment has been completed successfully, the Half-Elf Warriors of this city defense Guard Regiment will receive riding training. For the Elf Warriors of the city defense Guard Regiment, a good war horse is indispensable.

Seeing this group of Half-Elf Warrior choosing war horses, Roy realized that his Mine Guard Regiment was not equipped with a war horse either...

Silver Pegasus Legion has strict control over war horses. It is estimated that even if you apply, it will be difficult to get approval. On Pagisto Plateau, argali are more adaptable to the climate and terrain there than war horses, but currently almost all argali are in the hands of Leishande.

If you want to equip Mine Guard Regiment with a mount, you must find a way to convince Leishande...

As the guards in the city defense Guard Regiment have become Half-Elf, the security of Padesto City during this period is still very good, and it is almost rare to see those young Half-Elf who have nothing to do wandering on the streets.

The residents here are more accepting of Half-Elf guards patrolling the city, and will not make any provocative gestures when meeting the guards.

Commander Berkeley turned around, saw Roy, and asked him, "Investigation Team, how is the investigation at Pagisto Plateau?"

Roy was stunned for a moment...

If Commander Berkeley hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten it.

"They have been hanging out in Plateau City a few days ago... They should be fine!" Roy said with some uncertainty.

Commander Berkeley shook his head speechlessly and motioned for Roy to walk over. Commander Berkeley lowered his voice, covered his mouth with his hand, and said to Roy, "Try to leave a good impression on Investigation Team. After all, your identity is a bit sensitive, and their evaluation of you is quite important."

"Sometimes, if they just say one less word, they might save you a lot of trouble!"

Seeing that Commander Berkeley was a little serious, Roy also responded quickly, "I know."

Commander Berkeley motioned to the deputy to come here and keep an eye on him, and he led Roy to the edge of Training Ground.

"Pattington Plane is about to open. There will definitely be a large number of merchants pouring into Padesto City over time. These merchants will not only have a certain impact on Legion Magic Herbs's business, but it is estimated that your Elementary Magic Herbs business will also be greatly affected. You need to make preparations in advance to see how you can maintain market share."

"But there is nothing we can do about it. The senior management of the legion cannot resist the pressure from the upper level Elven Nobles. It is only a matter of time before Teleportation Portal is opened." Commander Berkeley said with a sigh.

Roy nodded and said, "I have already negotiated it, and I guess the impact will not be great."

"That's good!" Commander Berkeley waved to the followers around him, motioning them to stand farther away, and then whispered to Roy:

"After the plane is lifted, the first thing the legion does in order to make up for the losses is to Teleportation Portal levy Commodity Tax. All goods passing through Teleportation Portal will have to pay tax, and the goods on your side will also have to pay tax. There will not be any form of reduction or exemption, but! You can use this tax to offset the Magic Crystal Stone that needs to be paid for the mining site share."

After speaking, he winked at Roy, indicating that he must keep it secret.

"Is this still possible?" Roy was a little surprised.

Commander Berkeley waved his hand casually and explained, "The legion has never provided any substantial help to Pagisto Plateau, so they have also been very relaxed about the profit sharing of the mine. These have been discussed before."

"In addition, although the Magic Airship route Padesto City is being established, I hope you'd better keep a low profile as much as possible."

Commander Berkeley reminded Roy.

Commander Berkeley was promoted to the commander of the city defense team Guard Regiment in the Silver Pegasus Legion. This position has much more power than the commander of the logistics transportation team.

He and Roy have gone through so many things, and they can be regarded as close friends in the Silver Pegasus Legion.

Commander Berkeley said unceremoniously to Roy:

"Because of the Abel mine owner, it is not very good for some information about you to reach Buenos. The reputation you have accumulated among Pattington Plane's Half-Elf is too high. Now, The ban on Pattington Plane is about to be lifted again. At that time, a large number of Half-Elf will enter Pattington Plane. The upper level Elven Nobles does not want to see someone stand up at this time and unite all Half-Elf."

Hearing Commander Berkeley say this, Roy also woke up a little, and some cold sweat immediately broke out on his back.

Commander Berkeley continued, "They don't want Half-Elf to escape control completely. They just hope that Half-Elf can live a peaceful life in a concentrated area..."

"You also know that in recent years, the population of Silver Moon Elf has been shrinking, but the population of Half-Elf has been growing very fast. From any aspect, the upper-level Elven Nobles do not want Half-Elf to make a voice. Do you understand what I mean?"

Roy nodded.

After visiting Commander Berkeley, Roy left the city defense camp of Guard Regiment.

In just half a month, a large number of Magic Herbs shops appeared on the streets of Padesto City.

When the herbal medicine merchants heard that the plane was about to be lifted, they immediately took action and quickly purchased stores before the ban was lifted.

As the price of Magic Herbs continues to increase, herbal collectors and merchants all go to Pattington Plane to share the cake. At least seven of the ten shops on the street deal with Magic Herbs.

Pattington Plane's economy gradually recovered, and Padesto City immediately became lively.

There were originally many empty tree houses that were unused, but now they have become the first choice of this foreign businessman.

Moira held Sabrina's arm and looked around on the street lined with tree houses. Woods followed behind them.

Since the entire city is almost full of Half-Elf, Moira and Sabrina feel like Lower District of Castleton City. The only difference is that Castleton Lower District are all brick buildings, and almost all tree houses here are built on the canopy of giant trees.

There are many shops here with various unique buildings built around the trunks of giant trees.

Woods kept asking about the price of Magic Herbs at the stall. Compared with Castleton, the price of Magic Herbs here is at least 30% cheaper.

For herbal medicine merchants, as long as they own a Teleportation Pass, this profit is almost a net profit.

Of course, the Roy and Silver Pegasus military earn more. Before the plane is lifted, the only ones who can legally transport Magic Herbs back to the Elf Continent are the Silver Pegasus military and Roy...

Once the ban is lifted, the price of Magic Herbs in these stores will inevitably increase.

"Why do you feel like Padesto City suddenly became prosperous?"

Woods put down the bundle of Magic Herbs in his hand and said to Sabrina who was walking next to him.

Sabrina smiled faintly and did not speak.

"Roland Continent's Grimm Empire broke out Plane War, causing a shortage of Magic Herbs, so the Magic Herbs market suddenly became hot, I Our Pattington Plane is rich in Magic Herbs. From the beginning, no one cared about it, but now businessmen from all over the world are flocking to it. It is also because of the pressure from many parties that Silver Pegasus Legion opened the plane blockade!"

The herbal medicine shop Boss is named Elf Merchants, who is very knowledgeable about outside news.

"Are you here to purchase Magic Herbs, or are you preparing to ship it?" store Boss asked next.

"I have a room Alchemy Workshop in Castleton City, but the price of herbal medicine here is still a bit expensive. I want to walk around again..." Woods said casually.

The herbal medicine shop Boss immediately shouted to Woods, "If you want to purchase Magic Herbs, I advise you not to wait. Once the plane is unblocked, the price of Magic Herbs here will definitely increase."

Woods waved towards Boss, the herbal medicine shop, and signaled him to go away again.

The three of them sat in a Cold Drink Shop on the street for a while and drank a glass of watermelon juice with ice.

Waiting for Roy to come out from the Silver Pegasus Military Department, Moira quickly stood up from his seat and waved vigorously towards Roy across the street.

After Roy signed in at the Padesto military headquarters, he took the three of them in a carriage and ran to the rental warehouse to visit Langbo who was guarding there.

This guy Langbo has been having a good time recently, because Roy has given Langbo a lot of authority. He has rented all the thirteen rows of warehouses by the river. It is next to the river, surrounded by some tall oak trees, and located on the edge of the west of Padesto City.

The only drawback is that it is a bit far from Air Port Dock.

Roy jumped out of the carriage and was seen by the warehouse staff. Soon Langbo came out of the warehouse and shouted to Roy from a distance:

"Roy, your goods have arrived, those Wooden Box bags shipped from Sun Island Bay!"

Roy was slightly startled.

At first, he was planning to use the only two sets of Floating Device to transport all Three-Masted Sailboat to Sun Island Bay, so he decided to remove all Floating Device from the first Magic Airship and secretly transport them to Pattington Island.

But now there is no need for it at all, because the Green Imperial Merchant Federation has collected all the remaining Floating Device.

Now Pattington Island's airship modification factory is working hard...

Roy walked up, put his arm around Langbo's shoulders and said to him:

"Uh, Langbo, help me find some carriages later. I want to transport those magic devices out."

Langbo immediately agreed, "No problem." Then he called a warehouse clerk and asked him to hire some carriages outside...

"When will Roy and Magic Airship's air freight service be started?" Langbo asked curiously.

Roy thought about it and said:

"It is still under preparation. I estimate that it will take at least a month before the freight route can be opened. There are only two Magic Airships now, and the shipping capacity cannot even meet the demand of Mine Guard Regiment..."

Langbo pulled Roy's arm and whispered to him:

"Leishande came here the day before yesterday and complained to me that Plateau City's demand for various supplies was too great, and his pack team could not transport so many supplies. Originally, some business groups had set their sights on Pagisto Plateau, but now that Magic Airship is about to be launched, many business groups have given up their original ideas."

Roy said with a smile, "Actually, you and Leishande don't have to worry. Those business groups will slowly find a profit point. Now the entire Pattington Plane economy is recovering. You can still make money even if you transport green apples to the plateau."

In the past few days, caravans have arrived at Plateau City almost every day. The supplies they brought have greatly alleviated the shortage of supplies.

The entire Plateau City is rising rapidly...

The investigators stayed in Plateau City for more than 20 days.

Every night here, I almost live in a tent at the end of the street and eat whatever I can buy.

The investigators looked a little disheveled at this time, but they finally completed the investigation task about Mine Owner Abel.

Plateau City's Half-Elf's impression of this Mine Owner Abel is almost always extremely bad.

There are also several different versions of the cause of death of Mine Owner Abel.

After this period of investigation by the investigators, everyone is more inclined to believe that Mine Owner Abel's lover killed the descendant of Silver Moon Elven Nobles.

The most unlikely version is that Roy Mine Owners heard that Mine Owner Abel had done many evil things and personally beheaded Mine Owner Abel in public.

This investigation actually ended a week ago, but the investigators could not find a caravan willing to leave with them.

When many caravans leave Plateau City, they would rather not carry the full Plateau City supplies than take these three Silver Moon Elf Merchants with them.

As a result, Investigation Team had to stay at Plateau City for more than a week.

In the end, they finally reached a cooperation agreement with a small Half-Elf caravan. The caravan would take the three of them back to Padesto, and they found a stable supply for this caravan in Padesto City.

Finally left this boring, boring Plateau City without any flavor of life...

The faces of the three investigators all showed excitement, but this small caravan did not have any extra horses, so the three investigators could only buy three at a high price in the market.

Leave Plateau City and walk toward the Tollai River.

In fact, it is faster to go directly through the wilderness and go south along Kaltim Mountain Range than to take the road Sudaso Mountain Range...

It's just that the road across the Kaltim Mountain Range is more difficult to walk.

Just when Roy, Moira, Sabrina and others returned to Padesto City, the three investigators happened to walk into the Kaltim Mountain Range with this small caravan.

While resting along the way, the three investigators gathered together and secretly discussed Roy:

"You two! Do you think Roy is the murderer of Mine Owner Abel?"

"Although I didn't get any clues, I feel that Boss Roy is very suspicious!" Another investigator said, "I will mark Roy as a key suspect in my investigation report."

"Maybe it was the lover named Olysses who killed the Abel mine owner..."

"Even if it is true, I will still indicate in the report that Roy is the key suspect."
