Chapter 328 Return to the Castle

Chapter 328 Return to the Castle

two months later

Kashin had been doing business these days, and he had mastered the trade. In the past two months, he had not only paid off the armor costs for the Dumas Castle in Chester, but also successfully shared in the generous profits.

Among these, one part was checks issued by Magic Island, and the other part was exchanged for precious dark gold in exchange for Pumasai checks.

During this period, Kashin basically stayed by Blainey's side, taking care of her meticulously, so Blainey remained in a good mood during her pregnancy.

The research and development funds for Qianzhou are basically all provided by Kashen's business. The young lady is not short of money for the time being, so she asked Kashen to take a break and go back to have a look.

As soon as they arrived at Sheldon Castle, Tan Aili burst into tears of joy, her face filled with uncontrollable happiness. She immediately ordered the kitchen to prepare a banquet to reward Kashen.

"Honey, I'm glad you're back! I finally finished the run...", Tan Aili's voice was full of concern and joy.

"The mission conditions are not yet mature, and we still need to make some preparations. Here are 50 million magic coins. Use them first. The remaining money needs to be converted into domestic checks through trade!" Kashin said with a smile.

"Honey, I don't know you yet? Which church have you robbed again?" Tan Aili asked half-jokingly.

"Madam, I love to hear that. Can't I make money in a civilized way? I can only rely on killing people and robbing. Your husband will be a civilized person in the future. I have been doing business for two months, which can help solve some of our family's expenses. By the way, how is our grandfather?" Kashin explained, expressing his concern for his grandfather.

"Haha, grandpa has been writing in his study recently. He shouldn't be too comfortable. Jean Tocque led his troops into the mountains to practice hunter skills, so grandpa has a lot of free time," Tan Aili replied with a smile.

"That's good. Let's go see grandpa after dinner. Where are Emily and Rupert?" Kashin asked.

"Haha, it's wonderful that they can practice together like this. The laboratory is under construction and is very valuable. Rupert goes abroad to sell supplies from time to time and makes a lot of money. He has joined the Sheld family and will no longer return to the Principality of Tiny to develop. Rupert is very sincere and is already a member of our country's Magic Association. The procedures were handled by the court magician..." Tan Aili narrated in detail.

"Okay! If they have similar interests, they will indeed be a perfect match. I am happy for them. Speaking of the pharmacy laboratory, it is indeed valuable. He can't use our magic power, so he must have built one himself. If there is no underground project, he can dig it himself. In short, it's not easy!" Kashin sighed.

The prosperity and development of a family often depends on the efforts and contributions of each member in different fields. Kashin accumulates wealth by doing business, Jean Toque improves his strength by practicing, and Rupert joins the family and conducts business activities. Everyone contributes to the prosperity of the family.

In short, with the joint efforts of many members, the Sheard family is moving towards a more prosperous and better direction.

When the banquet was held, Grandpa Nick, Emily, and Rupert all came. Now they were having a great time and were very close to each other. The table was full of delicious food with tempting aromas, and everyone sat around together with constant laughter.

During the dinner, Tan Aili said with a smile: "Now tens of thousands of people in the city have signed up to repair the city wall, and with the addition of eight hundred alchemists, the construction period has been greatly shortened. However, most of them are apprentices practicing, and their progress is not high..."

There was a gleam of pride in her eyes, as if she saw the castle's future solid walls.

Kashin smiled and said, "Just build the defensive positions. Our family is becoming stronger, and I will figure out the money issue! The knight weapons customized by the Kingdom of Pulga are being rushed. If one country takes our order, there will not be enough alchemists, so I will use my diplomatic status to entrust a foreign country to solve the problem. From now on, the army of Sheld Castle will be the best-equipped force in the world." His tone was full of confidence and heroism.

"That's good. My dears are so capable. We just have to wait for them to advance one after another! Although the military strength is insufficient now, no one dares to attack Sheldon Castle at this moment." Tan Aili's face was filled with happiness and peace of mind.

Rupert interrupted and said, "My sister Emily and I can easily control the formation in the castle, so we are not afraid of war. The castle's defense capability is 20% of that of the Mage Tower. It is like a meat grinder against these ordinary troops, making it difficult for them to move forward." His expression was firm and calm.

"It was all thanks to Rupert and Emily when I was not at home. After all, with the alchemists working here, I guess even the church wouldn't dare to make up their minds to call!" Kashen said calmly.

Grandpa Nick lit his pipe and said slowly, "There are no church armed forces around, mainly because it is not profitable. The Mercenary Association has sent 2,000 high-level professionals to live here, all of them are armored rhinoceros knights. The headquarters is also optimistic about this place and wants to use Shadowmoon City as a base to create a safe area and accommodate more low-level mercenaries. This move is also for training. It is estimated that they will set out in the next few days..."

Kashin said solemnly: "We must pay close attention to the combat effectiveness of the mercenary headquarters. Nowadays, mercenaries from many countries are engaged in fierce confrontation with the church's armed forces, and almost all-out war. The mercenary headquarters has actually fallen into a dilemma of lack of troops. At this difficult time, they were able to send up to 2,000 high-level knights to support, which is not easy! You know, these knights need to cross the ocean and go through a difficult journey of 8,000 miles to get here..."

Hearing this, Tan Aili couldn't help but laugh out loud. She shook her head gently and explained softly, "My dear, you misunderstood. They didn't come here through a long journey, but came with the help of a teleportation array and walked directly out of the Magic Association's local service department."

Upon hearing this, Kashin's face showed astonishment. He widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "What? There is such a thing! This is definitely not an ordinary situation. It shows that the Magic Association Headquarters has obviously given strong support to the mercenaries behind the scenes. Originally, Magic Island has always claimed to maintain a neutral attitude, but now it seems that even the Magic Association Headquarters seems to have stated its position. Alas, that church is indeed disgusting, and what they do is really unbearable..."

Tan Aili smiled and said: "That's a good thing. There is a powerful force supporting the just resistance cause. It's really inspiring..."

"As long as we can successfully delay for even just a little bit of time and wait for the indestructible alchemical wall to be completely built, we will no longer have to fear anything! By then, the church will no longer have the slightest chance of defeating us..." The person who spoke had a firm gaze, and his tone was full of confidence and expectation.

Emily looked at Brother Kashen and said softly, "Brother Kashen, I have been practicing alchemy at the construction site these days, so I know the current situation very well. In fact, my sister is responsible for providing assistance to the academy's engineering projects, which greatly shortens the originally long learning cycle of those alchemy apprentices. Because of this, the alchemy department of our Pumasai Kingdom is rising and becoming stronger at an unprecedented speed. This war is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to our group of magicians..."

Kashen said: "Haha, little girl, do we have to keep fighting blindly just because the magician group has an advantage? This kind of thinking is absolutely unacceptable. But, this war has nothing to do with Emily. You just need to stay away from those bloody killing scenes as much as possible and concentrate on growing your own medicine field..." He said earnestly, his eyes full of concern.
