Chapter 102 - It's like a business like this

"Little young master! You should move!" Regan begged to the water cloud beast lying on top of his head.

The water cloud beast floated a few centimeters feebly, then lost its strength and fell back to the top of Regan's head softly.

Regan held up the water cloud beast above his head, "I know you've watered all three villages, and you're really tired, but after we've watered this one village, we'll rest, okay?"

Shuiyun Beast gave Regan a white look. You said the same thing when you went to the village. Now, although it still has some strength, it really doesn't want to move.

It has only been born for less than a month, and it is properly exploiting child labor!

The villagers on the side were also a little anxious, but they were not good at urging them. They could only watch the water cloud beast and go to the crops in their fields because of the lack of water, anxiously waiting for the water cloud beast to take a rest. .

Reagan was still trying his best to persuade Shuiyun Beast, but Shuiyun Beast put his head aside, not wanting to listen to his babble.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "The water is coming! There is water coming down upstream!"

The villagers huddled together immediately, and the sad look on Regan's face finally unfolded. He put the water cloud beast back on top of his head and began to command the scene. He told the villagers not to rush water to their farmland. Instead, the water was first intercepted and led to a dug out storage tank for backup, so as not to waste the amount of water that the young master finally obtained, and then let the villagers divert the water to their own farmland.

The villagers excitedly scooped up the water with both hands, threw them on their faces, and laughed.

"The water is finally here! My corn is dying."

"It's all thanks to the Viscount!"

"Yes, Lord Viscount just sent someone to inform you in the morning, and there will be a water source in the afternoon!"

The villagers discussed excitedly and kept praising Claire.

"Long live the Viscount!"

"Lord Viscount is our savior!"

"We are willing to be your subjects forever!"

...

At this moment, Isaac and Claire were standing not far away watching this scene, and they had just arrived.

Isaac looked at the extremely excited villagers, his eyes flickered a few times, and finally put his eyes on Claire's face.

"I didn't understand a little before, why you have to spend so much effort and money just to get that water pump."

Claire shrugged, "Now what?"

Isaac smiled and said, "I understand a little bit now. It turned out that helping others and seeing the smiles on other people's faces made me feel so comfortable and felt that my hard work was not in vain."

"They are not others, they are my territorial people." Claire looked at the excited villagers and said, "As their lord, I must ensure their living environment, and I want them to live better than people in other places. happiness."

"Then what are you looking for?" Isaac asked. "They probably don't get as much tax as your tulip shop for a year."

"Do I have to do something? It's more like a business. What I hope for more is the intersection and collision of hearts and minds, rather than pure interests. And this is what I should do as a lord. responsibilities and obligations." Speaking of which, Clayton paused.

"And how do you know that Nafu City will not bring me more benefits in the future? I am full of confidence in its future!"

"You're an odd person, but I love being friends with people like you." Isaac laughed, too.

"Don't mess with the relationship, who is your friend, I'm your boss now."

Isaac: "..."

"Eat me a fire!"

...

After the problem of the water source was temporarily resolved, Claire took Regan and Isaac back to Nafu City. At this time, the water cloud beast was too tired to lie on his shoulder and fell asleep, purring similar to a cat. sound.

As for the water pump, Claire asked Hunter to guard with the knight. After a certain amount of water was pumped, he would switch to another lake and drain the water into the other two rivers.

As soon as he entered the city gate of Nafu City, someone hurried over. It was a clerk under Reagan's hands, and he was considered a civil servant in Nafu City at this stage.

"Lord Viscount! Dr. Rona has something to do with you!"

Claire gave Shui Yun** to Regan and asked him to take him back to the Viscount's Mansion for a good rest. After saying goodbye to Isaac, he rode the Wolf King to Rona's hospital.

Because after Claire hired a number of doctors from other cities, there are very few patients here. Unless it is a serious disease, those patients who cannot be cured will be sent here, so Claire did not come here. What patient do you encounter.

Opening the door and entering, Claire saw Rona grinding medicine in the small yard in front, which she had transformed into a tree-shaded garden.

After seeing Claire come in, Rona also stopped her work and walked over.

As soon as the other party came over, Claire keenly felt that the other party was a little different from the past, and then stretched out his hand to point at the other party, unable to believe: "Have you been promoted to an intermediate mage?!"

He clearly hadn't felt any signs of a breakthrough from the other party before, why did he suddenly advance!

Rona nodded, "Well, I called you here because of this."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Remember the black seed you gave me earlier?"

Claire nodded, "Of course I remember. At that time, you said that it would be mature in more than 20 days. It should be almost the time now. Could it have something to do with this?"

Rona led Claire to the inner courtyard, and said, "You guessed it right, that black seed grew fruit last night, and I sent someone to find you at that time, but at that time you were busy talking about someone. None."

Claire nodded, and he and Isaac were really busy making the water pump at the time, so there was no delay.

"Then I tested the medicinal properties myself. I tried all kinds of methods but couldn't detect the effect of the fruit. Finally, I took a sip after confirming that it was not poisonous, and the result was..."

"As a result, I was promoted to an intermediate mage?" Claire added.

Rona blushed and nodded lightly. She was actually a little embarrassed that she had eaten such a precious magic fruit.

Claire's pace involuntarily quickened, allowing people to break through to an intermediate-level mage. This fruit is not easy! Of the ten old men he brought back from the capital, six were trapped in magic apprenticeships even though they couldn't even get to the primary level, and four primary-level mages were in their 80s and 90s and still had not been able to break through to the intermediate-level mages.

No wonder the little girl was reluctant to take it and walk into it before, it turned out to be really miraculous.

Claire passed Rona and walked in front of her, Rona reached out and tugged at the corner of Claire's clothes.

Claire turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Rona bowed her head embarrassedly, and said in a soft voice, "I'm sorry, I ate such a precious fruit."

Claire couldn't help laughing bitterly. "Whatever is there, eat it. If you don't eat it, I will leave one for you. Don't treat yourself as an outsider."

Seeing that Claire didn't blame herself, Rona finally breathed a sigh of relief, she had been worried all night.

"How many fruits are there on that fruit tree?" Claire asked.

"Six fruits, after I ate one, there was one left."

After asking a few more questions, Claire and Rona finally walked into the inner courtyard. The first time they entered, Claire was attracted by the fruit tree in the corner~www.mtlnovel.com~ Its body exudes special magic waves , If it is an ordinary person, you may not see anything special, but if it is a mage, it is as conspicuous as a searchlight in the dark night, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

Claire walked over, and only then did she see the appearance of the fruit tree. It was still not very tall, and it was less than a few heads taller than Claire. It was similar to a peach tree. , more like plums.

However, Claire was quickly attracted by the other fruit above. The size of that fruit was more than double the size of the other four remaining fruits, as if she was swearing that she was here. Just like the king!

Rona also noticed Claire's gaze and explained: "When a fruit grows from the flower bone, it is different from other fruits. It should be the essence of this fruit tree."

"You mean it's more potent, right?" Claire reached out and held the fruit lightly. The moment she held it, she felt the magic in her body activate.
