Chapter 959 Anna's Transformation

"This is Anna Carbon, the priest of the God of Suffering. She is not only proficient in various medical methods, but also very talented and experienced in business, logistics and management.

All my sponsorship to Mr. Varro is in her hands. If you need it, you can discuss it with her.

As long as the reason is reasonable, my sponsorship will not be more than one million, but will be continuous.

Mr. Varro will have more energy and financial resources to do what he likes.

This dimensional bag is a sub-bag that can be connected to the mother bag in my hand and has the ability to take things across regions.

With this, you can not only get a steady stream of money, but also exchange information and get certain material support."

Gavin took out a dimensional bag and handed it to Anna.

The implication is obvious, the financial power of the journey to the Xianglong Dynasty is handed over to Anna.

It is not difficult to see from the other party's travel notes that lack of money is a normal state for Varro.

As a so-called magician who is most likely to achieve financial freedom, he is short of money every day.

This shows that in addition to his lack of money-making skills, his financial management skills are also very bad.

One million gold coins were handed over to him, and I don’t know how many of them can be used for the right purpose.

It would be better to put a tight ring on him and hand it over to someone he trusts.

The young priestess who was kidnapped by him is undoubtedly the right person.

Her business ability was already demonstrated when the two were still penniless.

In the past year or so, she has been given countless opportunities to hone her skills.

When Gavin was integrating the kobolds in the rocky land.

She had to preach and treat, fulfill the sacred duties given to her by the God of Suffering, and manage the logistics of the kobolds.

When Gavin led people on the road of conquerors.

She was not only the organizer of the medical team, but also the manager of logistics supplies.

When Gavin led his troops to support the desperate East Region.

She was also responsible for the transportation management of military supplies, plus the support of the medical team.

It is no exaggeration to say that Gavin’s many military medals have a strong touch of this young priest.

Gavin's forced actions also made her a tough one, and her experience was totally inconsistent with her age.

Unlike Gavin's old wine in a new bottle, she was purely a display of her own ability.

Moreover, she was abducted by Gavin at the age with the strongest plasticity. Her body and mind were left with Gavin's own mark, and became his exclusive shape, including her faith.

She did not question the deal of the God of Suffering, but there appeared a person who was not a god, but on par with God beside her.

His actions are changing the fate of countless lives, far exceeding many high gods.

His ideas are gradually becoming her faith.

Varo couldn't help but look at Anna again, and his eyes couldn't help but stay on the dimension bag for a few more seconds, revealing a trace of heartbeat that he couldn't hide.

His family knows his own business, and he is indeed not a material for managing money.

In this regard, he has no plan at all. Many times he spends as much as he earns, and travels on a stop-and-go basis.

If he had someone who was good at managing money, he really wouldn't have to worry about this.

"This is Susi, a dragon-transformed dog-headed man. She has mastered traps, roads and surveying.

Although there were maps in your previous travel notes, they were obviously not as professional.

With her help, your travel notes will have various professional maps, and her ability will be very helpful during the journey." Gavin continued to introduce Varro.

As a man who peeks into the priesthood of the road, he can't sit idly by and watch the value of the Golden Road.

The Golden Road will definitely be fully renovated and optimized in the later stage.

But even for Gavin and his team, it is not an easy task to renovate tens of thousands of kilometers of roads.

In particular, the road conditions of the Golden Road are far more complicated than those of the Conqueror's Road. Along the way, you have to cross not only the vast grasslands, but also the Gobi Desert and the desert, and pass through countless large and small countries and cities.

Endless wilderness is just a general term, and the main landforms described are much more complicated in actual conditions.

Whether it is like the Conqueror's Road, building roads while walking.

Or using the road-building team of kobolds and the magic-like abilities supported by the power of the road.

They are all abnormal methods and cannot be promoted on a large scale.

To become a true god, especially a powerful god.

The threshold for things related to your priesthood must be low enough.

Everyone can access and implement them.

The same is true for roads.

Even if you can repair them, they are limited.

If you create a method that can be used by all intelligent creatures in Faerun, it will be the moment when he truly becomes a god and becomes powerful.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Gavin will not use the kobold road-building team and the paving technique.

This is the foundation of his rapid accumulation of faith and the strengthening of his own strength in the early stage.

Instead, he uses this as a seesaw to conduct multiple attempts and developments.

The biological cement produced by the exploding crayfish is one of them.

Later, Gavin will start the research and production of ordinary cement, which is not very technical.

A variety of methods and materials will make Feren's infrastructure capabilities more powerful.

Varo naturally didn't know that there was such a huge plan behind Gavin's assistance to him.

After struggling for a while, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to your terms and can take them to travel to the Xianglong Dynasty.

But let's make it clear in advance that they are not allowed to interfere with me too much along the way. I want sufficient autonomy."

"Of course." Gavin agreed readily.

"Deal."

"The Far Eastern delicacies are also ready. Let's get started. This first dish is called spicy tofu, a genuine Far Eastern specialty. Let's see if our number one gourmet in Faerun can taste what it is made of!"

"It's spicy, fragrant, and salty, and it tastes just right. Minced meat and chives are used in it, but this tofu as the main ingredient has never been seen before. There is a hint of bean fragrance in it. You won't tell me that this is made of beans, right?"

"That's right, it's made of soybeans that we eat most often. It's a pity that the Xianglong-specific condiments such as aged vinegar and soy sauce are brewed for the first time, and there are too many things to prepare. If you want to really taste it, it will take another half a year. This This dish is not authentic enough. "

"If it is not authentic, it is so delicious? If it is authentic, how delicious will it be?"

"This requires Mr. Varro to tell us through his travel notes. I hope that Mr. Varro will bring back not only those superficial things, but also the manufacturing methods of those unique things.

After all, not everyone has the opportunity to go to the Xianglong Dynasty. I hope that one day, people all over Furen can taste the food of Xianglong. "

"I will do my best."

The two of them talked more and more happily, like good friends who have known each other for many years, from fine wine and food to human geography, and then to political systems.

Varo is the most knowledgeable Furen person Gavin knows, no one else, even the legendary arcanist is not as good as him in this aspect.

Filanxini is a typical scientific researcher, who has been doing research in the laboratory for many years. His professional knowledge is impeccable, but other aspects are obviously insufficient. Many of them are not interested at all, let alone understanding.

Varro has a wide range of knowledge. Unlike those keyboard warriors who are born out of the information explosion, most of what he said is what he has personally experienced.

So, it is very profound.

After a long conversation, Gavin gained a lot, and his inspiration flashed frequently, and it seemed that countless new business ideas were born.

This is where he excels in Varro. He has the human, material and resources that the legendary wizard does not have.

Many things that are just anecdotes to him will directly become business intelligence to Gavin, just like the Stark bushes and the glass water lanterns in Nimir Village, and will be put into practice when there is a chance.

Just based on this business intelligence, Gavin's cultural relics are worth it.

In other words, in Faerun, various business rules are not sound. If it were on Earth, Varro would sue Gavin for the two business ideas of Stark bushes and glass water lanterns, and the assets he won from it would not be one million, but more than ten million.

After more than half a year of fermentation, these two major industries have been booming.

Not only the Goblin Border and the Kingdom of Cormyr have seen a surge in the cultivation of Stark shrubs, but also parts of the Kingdom of Tethyr, the Valley, the Dragon Coast and the Giant Plains have begun to plant them in large quantities. Not limited to humans, but also those intelligent races and intelligent monster races have begun to plant them sporadically.

The relationship between intelligent creatures has always been diverse, not just a war conflict.

Most of the time, they still focus on cooperation and trade. After all, monsters are also born and raised by their parents. Life is cyclical and they also need to recuperate.

Stark shrubs are tenacious and adaptable to a variety of environments. They can be harvested repeatedly and grow at a fast rate. Their unique taste makes terrestrial herbivores ignore them.

These characteristics allow even those races that are not good at planting to plant them on a large scale.

The considerable recycling price and high-speed and effective recycling efficiency given by the Conqueror Caravan provide stable guarantees for the farmers who plant them.

This is a basic link in the industrial chain. When this link is launched, fishery farming can be carried out on a large scale, using a large amount of fish to recover funds from those farmers.

Among them, the breeding of explosive crayfish and electric eel is one of the links, and biological cement and glass water lanterns can be produced on a large scale.

The feedback of biological cement in the market is not very large.

Because the amount sold to the outside is very small, most of it is digested by Gavin's territory. Whether it is the City of Faith or the town construction of the Battle Valley, a large amount of this building material is needed.

Even if there is a surplus in the future, this building material will not be sold in large quantities, because it is a strategic material, whether it is in territory construction or on the battlefield, it has a miraculous effect.

For example, in a war where the enemy is numerous and we are few, as long as you have enough biological cement, you can match a large amount of sand and a small amount of water to build a wall or fortress in a very short time, thus reversing the war situation.

If biological cement wants to enter thousands of households, the whole of Faerun must start breeding explosive crayfish on a large scale.

Compared with the unknown biological cement, glass water lanterns are now very famous in the north of Faerun.

Especially after the City of Faith began to install a large number of glass water lanterns to turn itself into a city that never sleeps, its reputation and goods immediately spread in all directions with the passing caravans.

This reputation reached its peak after Nimir Village completed the Cormier royal family's order and turned the Purple Dragon Palace into a palace that never sleeps.

Nobles and wealthy people throughout the Kingdom of Cormyr began to pursue this new pollution-free lighting fixture.

If you organize a dinner party yourself without a colorful, art-like glass water lantern as a decoration, you will appear to have very little taste and style.

When glass water lamps became a new tool for the aristocrats and wealthy businessmen to compete with each other, prices and sales actually showed a rising trend. Some of the complicated customized products had prices that directly exceeded the ten thousand yuan mark.

This is no longer just a lighting tool, it is clearly being sold as a work of art, and the speed of making money is quite astonishing.

The money was then invested in variety research and development, breeding expansion and opening of branch factories.

Although Gavin's pockets have not increased, his industry has sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, radiating to the surrounding areas along the road of conquerors, and his control is increasing rapidly.

Now that Varro himself has been caught, Gavin is still digging hard, trying hard to keep him, and providing him with good food and drink every day. In addition to sending people to take him around his territory to observe, Gavin I also took the initiative to shoulder this task whenever I had time.

In the whole thing, Gavin's only miscalculation was the personal wishes of the pastor Miss Anna.

…

"Why... why... why should I go to the Xianglong... Dynasty? I... I... won't go. There are too many... things I need to do here, and I simply... can't get away."

After sending away the drunken Archmage Varro, the young priest had tears in her bright eyes.

In a hurry, the girl pastor's stuttering problem that had been cured for a long time relapsed, even more serious than before.

This violent reaction made Gavin feel a little at a loss. He quietly gestured to Susie and asked her to exit first.

After she left, Gavin comforted the young pastor softly and said, "I'm sorry, I did something wrong this time. I should have discussed this with you in advance before making such a decision.

I want you to go to Xianglong not because you haven't done well, on the contrary, because you have done well. I want you to get more opportunities to grow and find your own path. "

It’s okay if Gavin doesn’t comfort her, the girl pastor can still be strong.

This comfort made me burst into tears, and kept sobbing and crying, "I...I...know that my ability...is limited and I can't keep up with my husband...but...but, I...I have... I have been trying very hard to catch up. Even if I am... useless, there is no need to drive me... to Xianglong.

At worst... at worst, I'll go back... I'll go back to the green fields... I'll go home... I miss home..."

Hearing the other party's cry, Gavin suddenly realized that this incident was just an introduction.

When I thought about it, it was completely normal.

Unlike her cheating self, Anna was just an ordinary girl priest when she was abducted from her home. Her abilities had huge side effects, which made her extremely unconfident, which led to her stuttering problem.

The pace of his development was so fast that even the gods were shocked and looked at him differently.

But this ordinary girl has been following her own pace of development and has not been completely left behind.

This is certainly a matter of talent, but more of it is her hard work.

Most of the time, she had to study and do things at the same time.

Sometimes, she didn't even have the chance to study, so she had to bite the bullet.

She probably has forgotten what it feels like to sleep until she wakes up naturally.

Gavin suddenly discovered that he was very selfish. He brought the young priest with him for the sake of his previous relationship, but he did not give her enough care and failed to fulfill his original promise. Instead, he made her bear a huge burden that should not be endured at this age. pressure.

"If you feel homesick, I will take you home..."

Before Gavin could finish speaking, Ana cried even harder, "Gavin...Gavin...sir doesn't want me anymore...really wants to send me back...send me home...wow..."

Gavin suddenly realized that the more he said at this time, the more mistakes he made.

The best way is to say nothing and do nothing.

Just stay with her quietly, let her vent her negative emotions, and then find a way to comfort her.

as expected.

Anna is still the same teenage pastor, but not quite anymore.

The training of the past year and a half has transformed her from an ignorant girl into a working woman with a steady and sophisticated style of work, at least on the surface.

Because countless people place their hopes on her, one of her decisions or mistakes will affect the lives and deaths of countless people.

Only in front of Gavin would she occasionally show the weak side of a girl.

Soon the crying turned into choked sobs and finally into sobs.

At this time, Gavin took out a wet towel, wiped her face gently, and asked softly: "Are you feeling better? A lot of runny nose and tears are not beautiful."

"I...I...I'll do it myself." The young pastor ignored the entanglement and hurriedly took the wet towel. Not only did her baby fat face turn into a bright red cloth, but even her neck became red.

She was obviously not used to this sudden close contact.

After Gavin looked at it for a while, he smiled and said, "This is my good Anna."

"Who is yours..." Anna felt like her face was about to burn, and she responded weakly.

"I'm letting you go home, I'm just letting you go home for a visit, I'm not letting you go back and stay for a long time.

You are my indispensable right-hand man.

If you don't come back, I will definitely lead the army to rush to Green Nest Town and take you back. "

Gavin's tone made Anna unable to treat it as a joke, but a promise.

This directly made her brain crash, and she didn't know how to deal with it. When she came to her senses again, she was already on a small hill.

The scene in front of her was extremely familiar.

A village of moderate size was located in the endless green field.

Under the setting sun, countless farmers finished a day's work, pushing farm carts, carrying farm tools, or driving livestock to the village.

One thing in common is that their pace is neither fast nor slow. (End of this chapter)
