I Ascend To the Throne of God with Arcane Magic Chapter 48

Chapter 48 Important Information

The next morning, Bright Light City experienced a heavy rain that had not been seen for a long time, and there were bursts of thunder. Only Bender was left in the stable to comfort the frightened horses in the entire courtyard.

In the restaurant, Li Si was wearing pajamas and eating lunch lazily.

Li Si, who had been up all night last night, slept in in the morning and just got up.

I don't blame myself, I just blame it on sleeping on a rainy day because it feels so comfortable and gives me an inexplicable sense of security.

While Li Si was enjoying the special roast chicken made by his chef, Joyce put a letter on the table.

Li Si flipped through the brown paper envelope. It was quite thick. There was no signature on the envelope. He didn't know who sent it to him.

Before Li Si asked, Joyce replied in advance:

“Master, this is a letter sent to you by Master Mora, saying that you know what is in it.”

Is this the information I collected last time through Tomora's help? It was finally sent over!

Li Si was not in the mood to enjoy the food slowly. He wolfed down the food to fill his stomach, and then took the envelope to the underground research room.

Clearing a clear space on the table filled with various experimental equipment and scratch paper, Li Si sat on a chair and tore open the envelope to read the information Mora had collected for him.

Different types of information are organized and written down on different formats of paper. Mora is really careful about her own affairs.

“Information on changes in important officials of the kingdom? This is not a big change!”

“Changes in the migration and distribution of monsters in the kingdom's wild areas and changes in trade routes? It's of no use either.”

“The recent activities of Earl Sharon's widow? What did this kid Maura stuff in!”

Mora has prepared various types of information for himself, such as the traveling trade route tablet, which was discovered by Mora and his family's merchant guild at a huge cost. If sold to traveling merchants who are in urgent need of information, they can even make a lot of money.

However, these are of little use to Li Si. This is not the information he wants to know.

At the end, there is the most detailed and important information, the statistics of commodity price changes in the Kingdom of Fes and several surrounding countries.

For ordinary people, this is the indicator of making money, but that is not what Li Si pays attention to.

Among the dense data, Li Si quickly found what he wanted to know.

In the Kingdom of Fes, the prices of bulk commodities such as food, metal ores, weapons and equipment, and salt have continued to rise slightly over the past six months, with an increase of 5% to 15% compared with the same period last year.

The prices of domestic luxury goods and real estate have declined slightly.

Several countries near the Kingdom of Fes also have similar situations, but the range of price fluctuations is smaller than that of the Kingdom of Fes.

Following the intelligence, there were also suggestions from the intelligence staff of the Golden Vine Flower Chamber of Commerce, proposing to increase the proportion of food, equipment and other commodities carried in the caravan.

Li Si put down the information in his hand and touched his chin, with a meaningful look in his eyes.

Now it's interesting!

The entire continent has been peaceful for a long time, so even if the Golden Vine Flower Merchant noticed these unusual price fluctuations, they did not consider war.

Look at these, whether they are food, weapons and equipment, metal ore, salt and other commodities, they are all extremely important war preparation materials.

If food fluctuations may have seasonal effects, then the price changes of weapons, equipment and metal ores make no sense.

Li Si is different. Even though he doesn't know much about economics, he knows that the outbreak of war is the inevitable result. Then looking back, he can easily guess the reason for the increase in the price of these war preparation materials.

Someone is secretly purchasing and hoarding these important strategic materials!

At the same time, according to the extent of changes in material prices, the main purchase and hoarding behavior should occur within the Kingdom of Fes, which in turn drives changes in material prices in surrounding countries.

This is a little bit scary!

The mobilized funds can directly affect the prices of bulk commodities such as food and weapons and equipment. What an exaggerated amount of funds!

And this kind of secret acquisition did not arouse the suspicion of the Golden Vine Flower Chamber of Commerce, one of the top five chambers of commerce in the country. This~

Without the cooperation and support of the kingdom's top officials, Li Si didn't believe anyone could do this!

So the assassination on Holy Day was planned by the kingdom's top brass?

Will he be a king?

Li Si felt that it was unlikely. If the king really wanted to start a war, there would be no need to provoke a dispute through assassination on Holy Days, which would greatly damage the face and prestige of the royal family.

As long as the king wants to, a small friction on the border can become an excuse for war.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Li Si's mind!

Yes, unless the king does not want to start a war, but someone wants to create an irresistible reason that makes the King of Fes have to launch a foreign war of aggression.

Use war to divert domestic conflicts and vent the dissatisfaction of the aristocracy caused by the assassination!

Li Si clarified his thoughts little by little, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

So the most important thing now is to find out who in the kingdom wants to promote foreign aggression and what causes the war.

Li Si looked at the information in his hand again. The information Mora sent was very useful to him. He would like to thank him later.

So, where can we find out the news from the top officials of the kingdom?

Soon, a figure appeared in Li Si's mind.

Come on, why did you forget him? —

Gedo Street, the residence of Yaer Adventure Group

The rain outside the window is still pouring. In this weather, people stay at home to rest, and few people go out in the heavy rain.

After all, in this day and age, a small cold may take away a person's life.

Everyone from Yaer's adventure group is also in the villa, lazily enjoying this rare leisure time.

Lombos was still drinking the ale that was like life to him with this side dish. The last crusade mission had enriched his drinking money.

Yasen was maintaining his sword and armor, carefully applying special grease for lubrication and maintenance.

Elena and Yaer were also sitting side by side on the sofa.

“Oh, sister Elena, please let me hug Xiao Hei again. I will be gentler this time.”

Ya'er looked helplessly at the little black cat huddled in Elena's arms, pretending to be pitiful.

“You said the same thing last time.”

Elina rolled her eyes at Ya'er and ignored her coquettishness.

“You're so stingy, I won't let you play with it if I have it in the future!”

Ya'er turned her head angrily and complained angrily.

At this time, Li Si opened the door and walked in. Hearing Ya'er's words, he couldn't help but grin.

Farewell, just that bad-tempered red dragon. I really don't know how you made the red dragon, the most ferocious and cruel among the colorful dragons, become your mount?

Is it physical persuasion?

Seeing Li Si come in, Yasen put down his sword and asked:

“What, Li Si, this kind of bad weather is coming again, is there anything urgent?”

“It can't be for the reward from the last mission, right?”

Yasen joked.

“Indeed not, I have something to ask you for help with.”

Li Si shook off the water drops on his raincoat and said to Yasen.

Please read the collection, readers
