Creating a Different World - Chapter 2524

[Chapter 2524 Response]

The mayor is a fat old man with a beer belly and a cunning look.

After returning home to understand the situation, he kept looking at Jia Zhengjin and others, and asked: “Do you live in the barren mountain of Liubol?”

“Yes, mayor! Many years ago, because of the drastic changes in our family, we wandered here and settled on the barren mountain.” Zion answered hurriedly.

“The barren mountain of Liubol is under the jurisdiction of our Flato town.”

“Yes, so we have lived here for so many years, and we are actually your townspeople.” Zion said immediately.

“Really? First, you built houses and lived in the barren mountain without permission, and second, you didn’t register your information, and you didn’t pay a penny of tax to the town. You even dared to come to buy slaves on your own initiative. You are very brave!”

“This…” Zion looked a little embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer.

Seeing this, Jia Zhengjin stepped forward and said with a smile: “Mr. Mayor, we are wandering here and don’t know much about the rules. If there is a problem, you can point it out and we are willing to cooperate actively. After all, we have considered ourselves legal residents of Flato Town for so many years and will abide by any rules of the town. It’s just that we live in the mountains, and the products are not very abundant. We only have some wild water chestnuts, broad-leaf beans and broad-leaf vegetables that are not up to standard. If you don’t mind, I promise to send you a few bags every day.”

Upon hearing this, the mayor smiled slightly: “Recently, there have been a few more delicious foods in the town. So you are selling them? Are these all produced in the barren mountains?”

“Mr. Mayor, there are only a small amount of wild wild water chestnuts, broad-leaf beans and broad-leaf vegetables on the barren mountains,” Jia Zhengjin replied. “It took us several years and a lot of thought to finally find a way to grow them on a large scale. Although the output is still limited, it is not a problem to pull a few trucks here to sell every day.”

“More than not a problem? I see you make a lot of money from this,” said the mayor, “and potions! I heard that Miss Mashi is a junior pharmacist?”

“I’m just a novice pharmacist who can refine the most basic primary physical strength potion.”

“Too modest!” said the mayor, “I’ve learned a little about the primary physical strength potion you sell, and the quality is much higher than other similar potions in the pharmacy. It can be seen that Miss Marcy is very talented in alchemy. I wonder who her teacher

is?” “Actually, I taught myself.”

“Oh? That’s even more amazing!” The mayor looked at him many times, then turned to Tina and others, “Miss Marcy and these people don’t look like ordinary people?”

“I taught myself low-level magic, and I can barely use fireball and lighting.” Jia Zhengjin replied, “I can be considered a novice magician. They are my guards, and they used to be mercenaries.”

“I see, so Miss Marcy’s identity was not ordinary before she fell into trouble?” The mayor asked curiously, “I wonder where you are from?”

Before Jia Zhengjin spoke, Zion answered first: “Mr. Mayor, our lady is from the northern country of Albina, and her full name is Marcy Celt.”

“Northern country, Celt?” The mayor was stunned when he heard it, “Is she the heir of the city of heroes?”

“That’s right!”

“Excuse me!” The mayor’s attitude changed instantly, “I didn’t expect Miss Mashi to be a descendant of a hero. It’s such an honor to be able to settle in our Flato Town!” “You

‘re welcome, Mayor. Since we are here, we are just ordinary people in your jurisdiction.” Jia Zhengjin’s mind was full of question marks. What’s the matter with this hero city and Celt? Obviously, Princess Mashi can’t be this identity. Zion made up a lie 100%.

The question is, will this lie be exposed? Or can he maintain it?

“Since you are a member of the Celt family, this is not a problem!” The mayor’s attitude was completely different before and after, “Are you used to living in the barren mountains? Do you want to register as a town resident? Just a simple registration and the procedures will be complete!”

“Mr. Mayor, please arrange it at will. We don’t understand these things very well. We are really sorry for causing you trouble! In short, you say, we will fully cooperate!” Jia Zhengjin was very humble.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Actually, there are no resources over there in the barren mountain, and the land is very poor. You can actually cultivate in such a poor land, which is quite amazing.” The mayor said, “Since you are the descendant of a hero, you should be taken care of. Kubo!”

“Here!” Hearing his uncle calling his name, Kubo hurried over.

“In the future, take less of the goods brought by Miss Mashi!”

“Mayor, it doesn’t matter!” Jia Zhengjin said, “In fact, we have planted a lot, which is completely enough. And now we mainly sell potions, so it’s not a problem for you to take more!”

“No, no, no, you are the descendant of a hero, we will try our best to take care of you.” The mayor waved his hand and said, “After all, your ancestors gave their lives for the Dawn Front. Later, I heard that the entire family was killed and injured in the war, and some people even said that they had been exterminated. Now I know there are survivors, and I am also happy!”

Jia Zhengjin looked back at Zion, thinking, is it okay for you to make up an identity like this? Once the other party finds out that we are not the descendants of heroes, we will be greatly suspected! When we investigate, if we find the identity of the Ressel Empire, it will be a big deal!

Zion obviously knew the concerns of “Princess Mashi” and used his eyes to reassure her that he would not reveal the truth.

Jia Zhengjin didn’t know what he relied on, but he couldn’t think too much at the moment, so he said to the mayor: “Mr. Mayor, let’s talk about these things later. We will also fully cooperate and register our identities as soon as possible. However, can we talk about the slave trade? To be honest, there is a shortage of manpower in the mountains now, and we need to expand the manpower for labor as soon as possible.”

“For labor, you can actually hire people from our town.”

“I’ve actually thought about it, but it’s not very convenient.” Jia Zhengjin said immediately, “First, the mountain road is steep and not too close to the town. It’s inconvenient for an ordinary person to go back and forth every day because he has to climb the mountain. I can’t give the carriage to them, right? Second, even if we leave them on the mountain, my side is a barren mountain, and ordinary townspeople will definitely not be able to stand it. They will probably want to escape after living there for a day. What’s more, the work intensity over there is very high, and I can’t pay much wages, so few people are willing to go there. But slaves are different. As long as you buy them, you can order them around without any complaints, and they can work no matter how hard or tiring it is, and they must obey me completely. Comparing the two, slaves are definitely more cost-effective, and they are permanent in nature, which is simpler than hiring them.”

“Well, that makes sense!” The mayor nodded when he heard it, “It seems that Miss Mashi has thought it over carefully.”

“I just think more.” Jia Zhengjin smiled, “Mr. Mayor, I would like to ask, do you have any way to get someone for me?”
