Starting Life as a Baron - Chapter 289

[Chapter 288 Nick’s troubles and thoughts (3)]

“Oh poor Nick, let me see your hair, damn it, get away from me!”

Allen wanted to comfort Nick, but he forgot how strong the smell of this poor potionist was.

After tearing off the sanctuary, Allen almost spit out his breakfast.

“Nick, I swear, if you don’t take care of your personal hygiene like this, I promise, you will be the first high-level potionist I put to death.”

Allen said with a very serious expression.

After he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers without waiting for Nick to finish. Immediately, a ball of clear water appeared around him.

Allen waved his hand and immediately wrapped Nick inside.

The flow of water rushed through the body immediately, and Allen changed the water polo several times in a row before suppressing the sour smell.

“Come on, bring this disgusting potionist to me and clean it up.”

As Allen said, more than a dozen maids immediately appeared and dragged the senior potionist out.

“Nick, come back to me when you’re cleansed.”

After Alan finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the castle.

25 “Grandpa Edward, help me prepare hot water.”

Allen said to the old housekeeper Edward.

“Please wait a moment, Your Highness.”

Edward immediately ordered the maids to make hot water for Ellen.

Ellen took a comfortable bath, and Edward had ordered the housekeeper to prepare dinner for him.

“Grand Duke, this is a grilled lamb chop. It was just delivered from the Sadru Ranch in the southwest. The lamb who was just born a month ago ate some grass in the early spring. I heard that it tasted extremely delicious.”

In front of Ellen, a steaming lamb chop is exuding an attractive aroma.

Ellen was sitting comfortably on the sofa, surrounded by a dozen maids and some matching drinks, or fruits.

“Grand Duke, do you need the maids to perform some dances for you?”

“Or music?”

The housekeeper spoke very respectfully.

Allen thought for a while and said, “Is there a band? If there is, I don’t mind relaxing.”

“Okay Grand Duke, everything has been prepared for you.”

The housekeeper clapped her hands, and immediately, the small door in the depths of the restaurant was opened, and a band with the world’s special instruments walked in.

Because the instruments are different, the music in this world is different from Allen’s previous life.

But the melody and aesthetics of the music are about the same, which makes Allen sound very enjoyable and comfortable too. “Wow wow wow!”

While Ellen was listening to music and having dinner, a little purple thing flew in chatteringly.

This is Fanny the Grape Fairy.

This little thing has liked to sing since he was a child, but unfortunately this little guy is insufferable, and the songs he sing are really indescribable.

However, the insufficiency of tone did not affect Fanny’s self-confidence, she still loves music very much.

At this moment, this little guy heard this wonderful music from nowhere and came over. “Whoa whoa whoa.”

Fanny flew a few more laps around in surprise, and then saw Alan not far away.

Fanny cheered this flying to Alan, sat down on his shoulder, then shook her calves and hummed to the music.

Allen smiled slightly, although this little guy is insufferable, he is his fairy anyway.

He patted Fanny’s head and continued with dinner.

After dinner was over, Nick appeared in front of Allen again.

At this moment, the potionist has changed his appearance, and the mess has some sparse hair now neatly arranged, just a little bald.

The beard on his face was also scratched clean, his clothes were changed, and the sour smell was gone.

The air suddenly became fresh. “Oh, Nick?”

Alan just came out of the restaurant when he saw Nick waiting at the door. “Grand Duke.”

Nick raised his head slightly, the only thing that didn’t change was his bloodshot eyes. “Let’s go, go to the study and talk.”

Alan took Nick into the study, while Fanny went to play with the band. “OK.”

Nick’s voice was slightly hoarse.

Entering the study, Alan sat in front of the desk and let Nick do other positions at will. “You said before that the senior potions were understaffed?” Allen said while rubbing his chin.

“Not only are high-level potions, there are also some intermediate-level potions that are not enough for the Grand Duke.”

Nick said haggardly.

After taking a bath, he was sober a lot, and he didn’t cry in grief in front of Ellen regardless of etiquette.

“It seems that our potions team can’t keep up with the rhythm.”

Allen sighed, his potionist bonus halo couldn’t keep up with the rhythm?

This made Allen a little confused.

But the main reason is that Allen’s territory is expanding too fast, so that the potions team has to face a larger territory before they can expand and grow.

Even Nick finds it difficult.

So I ran to Alan to complain.

“Well, let’s recruit a group of potion potions, how about leaving Nick to do it for you?”

Allen spoke to Nick.

“That couldn’t be better.”

Nick said gratefully.

“My lord, do we need to continue to develop the reputation of the Holy Land of Potions? Or should we keep a low profile?”

Nick asked.

“Recently, a potionist in the capital seems to have heard the name of our holy place and think we are not worthy of the name.”

Nick said: “Before I heard about the war, those potions thought to come to us to see if there is such a magical power. After all, the distance is too far and it is too magical, so they never believed it.”

“It’s just that the Northern War was justified at the time, so those potions didn’t come here, but now that the war is over, I heard that some senior potions in Norton Kingdom are coming to the south to see…”

When Nick said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: “Look…”

Allen smiled when he heard the words: “Then leave them behind.”

“Good Le!”

There was a gleam in Nick’s eyes.

In the current situation, what the Duchy of Allen lacked the most was a senior potionist.

Huge dragon potions are waiting to be crafted by senior potions.

Some of the Golden Knight’s Advanced Potions also require Advanced Potions to craft.

The most terrifying thing is that I don’t know what method Allen used.

Recently, the golden knights of the Duchy of Allen have experienced explosive growth. There are only three senior potions, which is really unbearable.

Now that Allen nodded and pulled a few more senior potions into the water, it would be much easier.

“Then I’ll go down and prepare. They will arrive here in about a month. I have to prepare first.” Nick stood up and said excitedly.

Allen nodded and let Nick leave.

Nick’s presence gave Allen some ideas.

Indeed, recently he only paid attention to the development of military force and agriculture, while the development of other occupations did not.

This created an uneven development in the Duchy of Allen. “Looks like it’s time to focus on other aspects.” Allen said in a low voice.
