Chapter 326 Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce
"Uh, are you?" Lance looked at the middle-aged man with a gentle smile doubt. Although he did not know him, he still held a polite honor.
"Haha, I'm Rawls, the vice president of the Wokind Chamber of Commerce. You are Ai Jialin's classmate, and you have sent her back to the guild several times. Naturally, I know you, but I didn't expect to see you here. The vice president said with a smile.
Agaline was going to ask how this uncle could know who Lance was, but she didn't expect that she was involved. I remembered that every time I was sent back to the Chamber of Commerce by Lance, I walked through the side door. I thought that no one knew about it, but I didn't expect to underestimate the secret whistle and defense forces in the meeting. Thinking of the ambiguous scene of each separation, I couldn't help blushing slightly.
"It turned out to be Vice President Rolls. I've seen you for a long time!" Lance nodded politely and stretched out his hand to hold Rolls's active hand. He thought that the vice president was ready to climb the relationship when he saw such enthusiasm, but he didn't expect that the other party did not ask about any father's situation after shaking hands. He just spoiled Ai Jialin: "Our little Ai Jialin has grown up and successfully obtained the intermediate magician badge. Uncle is also very happy for you. Since your classmates have come, you can talk first. I won't bother. Go to the carriage and wait for you.
"Well, okay, thank you, uncle." Ai Garlin looked at Rawls' slightly suggestive eyes and nodded shyly.
"Your uncle seems to think there is something wrong with us." Looking at the back of the middle-aged man slowly walking away, Lance said with a smile.
"Well, it's annoying. If there is a problem, it's also your problem." Ai Jialin pouted and then said, "Rols is not my uncle. He is the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, his father's right assistant, and a vital figure in the Chamber of Commerce. I used to calling him uncle when I was a child. In fact, he is not related by blood."
"Well, that's how it is." Lance nodded and then said, "Looking at how happy you are, it seems that the assessment is very smooth?"
"Hee, it's already the peak of the intermediate magician, and it's unreasonable to fail to authenticate again. But I didn't know until today that what the seniors in the magic department of the college said were true. The mages here are too harsh on us.
"The world thinks that everyone in the magician's guild is clear-hearted and greedy. In fact, these mages also have seven emotions and six desires. It is impossible to completely avoid things such as suppressing other forces and bullying others." Lance smiled and said, "It's just much better than outside."
"Hmm, okay, okay, you know more." Ai Jialin arched her nose and said, "It's getting late. Let's go out."
Lance nodded and walked up with the girl, but suddenly paused and looked strangely at an internal area of the guild certification site.
"What's wrong, Lance?" Feeling that the people around her moved and suddenly stopped, Ai Jialin asked doubtfully.
Lance, who usually responds to her requests, did not pay attention to her at the first time. Instead, he stretched his neck and looked more carefully at the field, like an ostrich. Ai Jialin had rarely seen him like this. She couldn't help laughing and followed his eyes, but found that there were all kinds of magic equipment in the certification scene. They were all human and didn't know what Lance was at all.
"Nothing." Lance just smiled, looked at a fat man who disappeared around the corner and the woman who was very close to him. He smiled meaningfully and sighed in his heart: Always let me grab your handle.
"You laugh so strangely. What the hell were you looking at just now?" Scarlett tilted her head.
"I'm looking at a fat man."
"Hmm?"
"It was the strong man who saved our college two months ago at the horror castle in the bloody wilderness in the north."
"Ah, is it him?" Ai Jialin quickly turned her head and stretched out her head, but there was no fat figure, so she naturally couldn't see it.
"Okay, okay, don't look at it. I can't find anyone now." Lance patted the girl on the shoulder.
"Is this strong man the friend you said, the friend who has a good relationship with you these days?" Agaline asked.
Because they are busy with practice, there are not many opportunities for the two to meet during this period of time, especially the requirements of the magic department of the college are also very strict, so this is the third time they have met in months. Lance remembered that the last time he mentioned to Ai Jialin that a fat master had become a good friend with himself, but he didn't have time to say who he was. He happened to meet here at this moment, so he nodded.
"Haha, right? Then the strong man in our college is really powerful. He can enter and leave the Magicians Guild at will. Well, but Lance, you are also very good. I haven't asked you yet. Didn't you say you would wait outside? How did you get in?
"Three or four waves of people who went out to assess haven't seen you yet. I was a little worried and came in." Lance smiled, and then he lowered his voice: "As for how to get in, let's wait until we go out."
As soon as he looked like this, Ai Jialin knew that this seemingly gentleman was obviously not coming in by normal means, so she quickly lowered her voice and secretly put her finger in front of her lips with a smile.
......
......
Outside the main entrance of the Magician Guild, there are many carriages and more people waiting. Few people in this world can have magical talent, and fewer people can eventually practice magic. So on this annual certification day, most people still come to certify whether they can become a magic apprentice. Whether in the Sorcerer's Guild, in the Magic Department of the Academy, or in the Imperial Court Magic Department, magic apprentices are lowly and humble. However, even so, there are still people who want to join it for no other reason. It is only by becoming a magic apprentice that it is possible to develop into a higher field. Even if you can't become a powerful magician or even become a mage because of insufficient talent, you can still study and develop in the fields of magic pharmacy and other magic, and you can still make achievements and be superior from then on.
Most of the people waiting at the scene are parents of civilians or ordinary families. They are waiting with expectation, hoping that their children or relatives can successfully obtain the certification of magic apprentices, but they do not know that waiting for these apprentices is not only hope, but also many Bullying and toil.
A small number of waiters are the chamber of commerce with luxury carriages and nobles, the carriages of the Wokind Chamber of Commerce, among them. However, as the first chamber of commerce in the mainland, the people among them are not as rich and vulgar as other chambers of commerce. Wokind's carriage did not use a lot of gold lacquer diamonds. Although it was noble, it did not look luxurious. It was parked in one corner of the carriage seats and was not conspicuous.
I haven't seen you for a long time. Lance has a lot of words to say to the girl, but he knows that she is even busier than herself now. Because as a genius of the magic department of the college, she has been deeply concerned and trained, so that it is difficult to meet each other on weekdays. The time is completely filled with a large number of practices and various magic experiments and magic research institutes. So although he expressed his desire to walk and talk together, Lance did not give much hope, because he also knew that time was indeed very precious to Ai Jialin now, especially because of the magic vows. If she is too sweet and intimate with herself now, it is easy to affect Her practice.
Based on this, Lance did not have much hope to see Agaline asking the vice president of the Wojind Chamber of Commerce on the edge of the carriage. After all, although the middle-aged man smiled very kindly, he was a very methodical and rigid person at first glance. But he didn't expect that the conversation seemed to go very smoothly, and there was no embarrassing scene of the aristocratic lady he imagined crying and the elders scolding angrily, otherwise he would feel guilty and embarrassed.
Rolls, the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, laughed a few times after hearing this, nodded, and then waved her hand to Arlene to leave. Interestingly, the carriage did not hang far behind Ai Garlene, but drove straight forward.
Looking at the girl who trotted over, Lance was very happy. After all, there were elders of the other party in the previous time. Although he was not a relative, he still could not be too close or presumptuous. However, it is very difficult to pretend to be serious in front of your loved ones. So he greeted him with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand to pull Ai Jialin's little hand, and said, "You are so awesome. How can you convince your old-fashioned elder?"
Looking at Lance's big hand, Ai Jialin was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly dodged her palm and hummed, "Have you forgotten what state I am now?"
Lance patted his head and smiled, "The vice president of your chamber of commerce has always been there, so he is a little reserved. Now I can't control it when I see him leave."
"Hmm, what can't be controlled? I didn't let you hold me all the time before." Ai Jialin said with a red face. Then he quickly changed the topic: "Uncle Rolls is actually not a very old-fashioned person. In addition to being very rigorous in business, he is also strict and serious about the products of the Chamber of Commerce, and he is very good at other times."
"Well, that's it." Lance nodded, then looked at the faraway carriage and shook his head, "Then he is too irresponsible to leave you here and leave by himself? It's still far from the center of the imperial capital..."
