Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 647: 207. Visiting Door-to-door_2

Hadley’s embarrassment was even worse. He rubbed his hands together and sighed softly:

“Alright, guest. I’ll make it a set price of 75,000 gold coins. I really can’t go any lower. I still have to provide underwater security services. Moreover, I will be providing your accommodations and meals at sea.”

“So, you’ve just reduced it by 5,000 gold coins.” Noland Lee looked towards the store’s door:

“It seems I should go elsewhere to inquire about the price. Your prices seem quite fluctuating.”

“70,000 gold coins, not a coin less, 70,000 gold coins.” Hadley stretched out his big hand, blocking Noland Lee:

“This is the price everywhere else, I can’t lower it any more. I am the only one who is most familiar with this area nearby.”

Noland Lee eyed him suspiciously from top to bottom.

Under his gaze, Hadley did not lower his price again, he only maintained a hopeful smile tinged with some embarrassment.

“Alright, Hadley. I’ll be considering it.” After thinking about his current schedule, Noland Lee said:

“My schedule is pretty tight lately. By the time you return from the sea this time, perhaps I’ll be able to make some time. I will talk to you then.”

“Alright, no problem, guest.” Upon hearing Noland Lee’s usual tone, Hadley let out a sigh of relief.

He quickly made the calculations, rounded out the pennies and charged Noland Lee a pile of gold coins.

Noland Lee added his energy points reserve from this trip into his magic pouch and left the store with Hadley.

Before leaving, Hadley finally remembered to ask for Noland Lee’s name, which Noland Lee readily gave him.

However, Hadley’s reaction to Noland Lee’s name was somewhat unexpectedly strong:

“You…you’re that ‘Bounty Madman’ Jarvis?!”

Noland Lee’s mouth twitched, he had presumably guessed that “Bounty Madman” was the nickname others had given him.

Over the past few days, he had tackled 22 bounty tasks, 6 arrest warrants, all of which were completed in a short amount of time.

Among these, 28 tasks in total corresponded with at least 28 local magic workshops, magic farmsteads, small and medium-sized forces in the Suman Archipelago.

His decisive and resolute execution style was bound to leave a deep impression on the locals.

Naturally, his reputation rapidly spread with rumors.

According to his experience in his past life, this sort of novel rumor would spread for at most 7 days and reach its peak between days 3 and 5.

If one counts the time, then Hadley, a wizard who graduated from the Deep Sea Branch, would have found out this news sometime in these two days.

Seeing Hadley so surprised by his identity, Noland Lee remained calm.

With an unfathomable smile, he gently nodded and spoke with a soft voice:

“Hmm, yes, it’s me.”

Then, Noland Lee turned away and walked off, leaving Hadley with the view of his retreating figure on the street.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Hadley, surprised to actually meet the subject of the urban legend, watched as Noland Lee walked away.

When he turned the corner, where Hadley can no longer see him, Noland Lee immediately quickened his pace, screaming in his heart:

“I’m never acting like such a jackass again!”

After solving the energy reserve problem, Noland Lee sent a few letters to the housekeepers of the Four Great Families, discussing the time and place to meet.

The housekeepers of the Four Great Families responded one after another.

Just as Noland Lee predicted, the Charnel Family, who owns numerous magic production industries on the Suman Archipelago, had the most enthusiastic response.

In fact, in the 28 tasks that Noland Lee took on, at least 20 of them involved enforcing the law at the Charnel Family’s magic workshops, farms, docks or sailing ships.

Someone as efficient as Noland Lee in maintaining the order of magic industry operations would naturally be welcomed by the Charnel Family.

In comparison, the replies from the other three families were not as enthusiastic. Their letters were plainly official and devoid of the emotional words like those of the Charnel Family.

Noland Lee carefully pondered and decided to meet with the Charnel Family last, with the other three families going first.

This way, he could make the most out of these meetings to gain information about the internal affairs of each family.

The closest meeting would be in three days. Noland Lee would visit Sienna’s rival, Dickler Fegan first.

…

…

The three days were spent preparing magic items for Sienna.

At dusk.

Noland Lee first delivered the prepared magic items to Sienna’s island, then changed his flying direction to visit Dickler Fegan’s residence on the Suman Archipelago.

As the fifth in line to succeed in the Pangula Family, Dickler Fegan’s situation was much better than Sienna’s.

He owned three islands in the inner circle of the pricey Suman Archipelago.

The three islands are connected by stone bridges made through Earth Rock Magic, forming a layout of a main island with two secondary ones.

Dickler Fegan’s mansion was located on the main island, which was shrouded in magic fog. Noland Lee couldn’t see inside or enter the island.

Only people carrying a pass could freely enter the magic fog without being attacked by magic traps.

The secondary islands at the east and west of the main island each served separate purposes. One is used for placing Magic Water Purifiers, Magic Orchards and other production facilities. The other one is specially used as a visitor’s area for meeting outsiders.

Noland Lee was approached by the Pangula Family’s magic servant when he was less than 3 kilometers away from the visitor’s area. He was asked to lower his flight altitude and approach the visitor’s area at a level less than 50 meters.
