Chapter 140 The dying old magician Li Haowu is quite talkative. He was originally responsible for administrative work at the outpost. Later, because Lakeside City needed a person in charge, Li Haowu was recommended by his superior to come here.
He was actually pretty good at it.
"The new currency is divided into two types: gold coins and silver coins. We have temporarily set the exchange rate between the two at 1-500. In fact, after we used the new currency to connect to Koman's economic system, we found that they not only have Mawei Asian gold coins, and Mavia silver coins..."
Li Haowu briefly told Chen Lin about the exchange of gold and silver coins. Chen Lin narrowed his eyes and asked, "Have you already completed this system?"
"This doesn't require any preparation at all. All the goods we sell are the best collateral."
"The entire system is ready-made, and there are dedicated people to handle this."
"Our main task is to use these extremely cheap industrialized products to exchange the wealth accumulated by the Coman Empire over the past few decades."
He chuckled: "You don't mind if I speak more directly, do you?"
Chen Lin shook his head. It would be outrageous if he was not allowed to say such words.
"The food we sell in our mall is also pretty good. Compared to the food in this world, what we sell is considered a dimensionality reduction blow."
"I can guess this even if you don't tell me."
Chen Lin responded with a smile, and everyone smiled knowingly.
……
Chen Lin had no intention of leaving at night and temporarily stayed in Lakeside City under the arrangement of the person in charge.
As a result, as soon as he lay down after cleaning up at night, the communicator in his bag rang.
Chen Lin picked it up and took a look. The name displayed on it turned out to be Naya, who had not been contacted for several days and seemed to have disappeared.
Naya Listi, one of the magisters of the Coman Empire, is a hybrid descendant of humans and dark elves, and is born with a powerful talent for magical resonance.
Another form change, another white-haired lady...
Various keywords about Naya quickly emerged in Chen Lin's mind, and then he pressed the connect button.
There was a burst of noise from the opposite side, followed by Naya's faint crying.
Chen Lin frowned and endured until he spoke to the other person. Naya seemed to have been sobbing for a while before she remembered that she was on the phone. She said to Chen Lin on the phone: "Apprentice..."
"What happened?"
Chen Lin sat up on the bed and said in a deep voice: "Don't just cry and talk."
Naya held back her sobs, and after a while she said intermittently: "Master...Master is about to die!"
Chen Lin suddenly became confused. What is this? Is Naya dying? No, according to conversation habits, Naya usually does not talk about herself in this way, so the master she is talking about is most likely her own master.
"Didn't you say that he was not in good health before? This kind of situation is unavoidable. Please forgive him and accept it, Naya."
After Chen Lin finished speaking, he heard a slightly angry voice from Naya on the opposite side: "Master Barron is not dead yet! It's just that he is dying of pain in bed now. He was explaining to me just now. It’s just a matter of funeral affairs!”
Chen Lin was sobered up by the roar. Listening to Naya's voice, this woman seemed to have returned to the posture of a little girl stood up directly from the bed, yawned and asked Naya where she was now, and then asked what happened to the so-called Master Barron.
Naya panicked and told Chen Lin the location. Chen Lin immediately turned on the light and searched on the map of the city, and found that Naya's location was only two steps away from where he slept at night.
He inquired about the situation at Naya's side in detail, and determined that except for an old mage on the hospital bed, Naya was the only one left there at this time, so he immediately decided to go and see the situation.
After Xiao Wu at the door figured out the situation, he immediately sent someone to go there to find out the situation, but he did not stop Chen Lin from traveling.
Chen Lin arrived at the residence Naya mentioned a few minutes later. As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a strong and pungent smell. He couldn't help but stand at the door and cover his nose to ask what the smell was.
Naya heard Chen Lin's voice at this time and rushed out of the house excitedly. When she saw Chen Lin, she rushed forward with tears in her eyes.
While Chen Lin was dealing with Naya in her little girl state, he heard the guard talking to him about the smell.
"It's confirmed to be harmless. It's the smell of some kind of saltpeter material used in alchemy. This dose has no effect."
Chen Lin nodded and took Naya directly into the house.
This room has a familiar feeling of a mysterious wizard's cabin in the Middle Ages. Books and all kinds of strange materials are randomly placed everywhere. Something is cooking on the stove in the distance. The pungent smell just now is exactly emanating from it.
But there was a bed in front of the stove in the room, with a skinny old man lying on it, out of breath and trying his best to breathe.
"This is my master, Eagle Barron!"
Naya quickly stepped forward and looked at the master who was so weak that he was almost losing signs of life. She suddenly looked extremely sad: "When the master was fighting with the imperial army, he used too many forbidden magic spells, and his vitality was severely corroded. I can’t hold on anymore!”
Chen Lin also took two steps forward and looked at the skinny old man. He really couldn't imagine how he helped the Imperial Legion in the battle... A powerful magician who wanted to use forbidden magic actually needed to consume his life force. No wonder there were not many magisters left in the Koman Empire in the end.
He complained in his heart, but he still said out loud: "How long has he been in this state?"
Naya glanced at Chen Lin in confusion, and then said: "This has only happened in the past few months... The master was once one of the top magicians of the Imperial Magic Academy, and all the magic spells in this room were created by him. He is a well-deserved supreme magician-like being."
"It's just that these magic spells have no effect on the magister who can resonate with him. I can't even save him."
Chen Lin did not step forward, but a guard next to him stepped forward directly.
The guard grabbed the arm of Magister Eagle Barron, and before Naya could react, he placed his big hand directly on the chest of the old Magister, felt the heartbeat for a while, and then began to observe Naya again. Ger Barron's eyeballs and cheeks...
Naya looked at Chen Lin with wide eyes, but noticed that the man made a hands-off gesture towards him.
Eagle Barron quickly determined the condition after repeated diagnosis by the guards. He put down the skinny Eagle Barron and said to Chen Lin: "Mr. Chen, I think I already know the condition. .”
"We will try special treatment techniques first. It will allow him to survive tonight, and he can be sent to the outpost early tomorrow morning for treatment."
Chen Lin nodded in agreement directly on Naya's behalf. Naya remained silent until she saw the guard take out a row of silver needles from his pocket, and she immediately jumped up.
"What are you doing!"
