Chapter 19: Chapter 19: The Young Lord

"The most important thing is that there are many places around Billy City that have poor iron mines. Many people will secretly mine and refine them into iron ingots, and then sell them to the city."

Wilson mentioned a place that Aslan was very interested in. Now their demand for steel is not high, and they can indeed buy it outside the city.

The kingdom implements a state-owned system of salt and iron. Secretly, the nobleman did not secretly mine or dry salt, but the kingdom’s large salt farms and large iron mines are all controlled by the kingdom. Once a large-scale salt farm or mine is found, it will not hesitate to take over. At the same time, he was sentenced to severe punishment.

However, the kingdom's prosecutors would turn a blind eye to iron smelting workshops that were poor in iron ore and could not be mass-produced. This is also the most common occupation in the outer city.

Because the ore produced by lean iron ore is difficult to refine and consumes much more manpower than rich iron ore, the kingdom is too lazy to take care of it, but for the people at the bottom, what they need most is manpower, and the least valuable thing is human life.

"Very good. Wilson will buy a batch for me to enter the city immediately. I will, um, let Jason go. The iron ingot is about one ton. As for the money, I will give it to him in three days." Aslan finished listening. Greatly surprised, he said decisively.

Compared with those nobles who look down on small profits in the slums, Aslan is very aware of the importance of small profits but quick turnover. He wants to make good use of the resources in the slums to develop the town of Melo.

As for giving the money three days later, Wilson has no objection either. Whoever told them that they have no money now, leaving this matter to Jason is also a test for Jason. If such a simple matter cannot be handled, he is not qualified Become the head of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Okay! My lord, I will arrange it right away."

Wilson got Aslan's approval and left very excitedly. As for what the ton of iron ingots were going to do, it was out of Wilson's consideration. He even thought it was Aslan's intentional test for Jason. .

Since the Flame Girl Hotel is the largest hotel in Billy City, it is naturally one of the biggest gold-selling caves in Billy City after nightfall.

The first floor was turned into a huge bar, and many noble and high-ranking people in Billy City would come here to pass the time at night.

In Aslan's eyes, the bar was very simple, with a huge bar, a few tables, and a few private rooms beside it. There was not even a dancer, and the music was only sung by a few bards.

"That's the way it is in the countryside." Aslan was already considering whether to open a brothel himself. His previous life experience told him that brothels are the best source of information and one of the most profitable businesses.

"it's him!"

A strange voice sounded, and a group of people quickly rushed to Aslan's position. Several of them were armed with a menacing aura, which scared many people who were drinking and having fun, and ran away in a panic.

"Who offended our young city lord." Someone began to whisper after seeing the appearance of the person.

The only heir of the Marquis of Medea, Master Justin.

The person who followed Justin was Lian, the chief inspector of the Outer South District, and this Lien was accompanied by a dog leg whose leg was broken by Aslan during the day.

Aslan was very surprised, the leader of the inspection department was really capable, and he was able to even invite the second generation ancestor.

"You are so courageous. You, an outsider, dare to openly attack my officials in Billy City." Justin didn't do it right away. After all, he had checked that Aslan was from the Sara family.

Although it is the loser of the family struggle, it is still the Sarah family. If it goes too far and affects the reputation of the Sarah family, the Sarah family will not sit idly by.

Therefore, the best way to deal with this kind of abandoned son of a big family is to sanction him with the laws of the territory. As long as everything is within the scope of the rules, the Sarah family will only turn a blind eye.

To put it simply, both face and face must be decent. After all, the most important thing for aristocrats is face.

"Oh, then who are you? And I called up the Billy City official and pointed it out to me." Aslan said arrogantly.

He has the confidence that Billy City is the holy land of magic in the province of Melox, because the Marquis of Medea is a great magician himself, so he issued a decree that as long as a magician commits a crime, regardless of his strength, he must Judged by herself.

Although Aslan is only a junior magician, he is still within the regulations. Once the matter is brought to the Marquis of Medea, Justin will not be able to bear it.

"That's him! You openly broke the leg of an official in Billy City, what should you do?"

Justin didn't know that Aslan was also a magician, so he still enjoyed showing off his clumsy acting skills.

Lien also took the opportunity to step forward, a green light appeared, and Gao Wen rushed out with a sword, but was stopped by a senior knight of the City Lord's Mansion.

"This is the capital of your arrogance." Justin sneered and began to chant a spell silently. A fist-sized fireball appeared out of thin air and shot at Aslan.

The people who were eating melons in the bar were shocked and retreated one after another, and even the timid ones got under the table directly.

A fist-sized flame can't cause any effective damage, but the fireball thrown by the magician is different, because the fireball contains compressed fire elements, and it will explode after touching the target.

The fireball technique of a junior magician is as powerful as an individual grenade, which is why magicians in this world are noble and powerful.

Aslan's eyes froze, and instead of retreating, he advanced. The claws of the left hand grabbed the fireball.

"Is this guy dumbfounded?" Justin was also taken aback by Aslan's actions.

Some women even closed their eyes subconsciously after seeing this scene, they did not dare to watch such a scene of being blown to pieces.

Aslan's hand was on the fireball, and the fireball did not explode as expected, but paused briefly.

"Dispel!" Aslan spat out the last syllable, and the fireball in his palm smashed away, but no one was hurt, only the flames splashed.

"Dispel magic! The opponent is a magician, and he is also a master."

Standing next to Justin all the time, he was a middle-aged man with a lazy look from beginning to end, and his eyes shot out twice.

"Lightweight technique!"

Aslan took advantage of the moment when the flames splattered, and cast another zero-level magic. His whole body lightened instantly, and turned into a sharp arrow that shot towards Justin.

The middle-aged man suddenly grabbed Justin's shoulder and blocked him behind him. The ring on his right hand glowed yellow, and a khaki shield suddenly appeared in front of him.

Aslan's fist was imprinted on the shield, rumbled, and a violent explosion sounded, overturning everyone in the center of the battlefield.
