Don’t Confiscate My Citizenship: Chapter 7 Lan Qi knows how to enroll in school
Chapter 7 Lan Qi knows how to enroll in school
The grandfather clock in the study room ticked leisurely, and the sound of gears could be heard clearly.
The aloes of the ancient books on the carved bookcases in the corner echoed in the air.
Looking at the magic lamp on the table that emits soft amber light, Noe took off his glasses, closed his eyes, and gradually relaxed his brows.
Whether Lanci acted it or not, at least Lanci's slow attitude pleased him.
“But father, I need some money before taking the exam. Can you ensure that I have sufficient funds for these three months as much as possible?”
Just when Noe thought Lan Qi was about to leave, Lan Qi's words made him open his eyes again.
“What are you going to do?”
Noe asked alertly.
Seems to be suspected that Lan Qi wants to defraud as much money as possible before the entrance exam and finally indulge.
“Making magic cards requires a lot of money for materials, and I also need to hire a suitable teacher.”
Lanci’s expression and voice were still so calm.
It doesn’t sound like he’s lying at all.
He did tell the truth.
Because he will start studying magic cards after reading the code.
“Can you make magic cards?”
Noe asked in surprise.
Lanci did not answer immediately this time.
Actually not yet.
He needs a perfect word to make his father trust him and invest in him with sincerity.
However, at this time,
“I promise the young master that he will make excellent magic cards.”
The butler who had been standing behind Noe spoke up.
He bent slightly and said beside Noe,
“If you could see the painting in the young master’s room, you would no longer worry about the young master.”
"oh?"
Hearing this, Noe turned his head and looked at the butler.
He was surprised by the butler's words, and soon realized that he was also surprised.
Then he looked at Lan Qi with interest:
“Lanqi, have you started painting again recently? To be praised so highly by Hans, it must be a pretty good painting.”
Hans is the name of the butler, but his predecessor rarely called him by his first name. Lanqi also followed the habit of his predecessor and only used "伱" when communicating with the butler.
“It’s not just that…”
The steward smiled and shook his head.
Obviously, the master has not realized what level the young master’s painting has reached.
Everyone can hear that Noe’s tone just now was to praise a child.
“Hans has always taken good care of me, but he exaggerated.”
Lanqi just pursed his lips briefly and interrupted the butler before he could finish his words.
The portrait of Thalia hanging in his bedroom was best not to be seen by Noe.
Otherwise, if Noe met Thalia by chance in the town, there might be some ridiculous misunderstanding.
“That’s it.”
Noe didn’t take it seriously when he heard this.
The only thing that surprised Noe was Ranch's humility.
Generally speaking, Lanci should seize this opportunity to boast about his talents and seek investment.
After hearing what Lan Qi said, the housekeeper had no intention of saying anything more.
He smiled half-smilingly and stepped back behind Noe.
"Okay, I hope you can pass the examination of the Alchemy Academy smoothly. Hans..."
Noe sighed and spoke polite words of encouragement to Lan Qi, and then ordered Hans, the butler, to provide Lan Qi with the money he needed.
It was because of the old housekeeper's face and Lan Qi's good attitude today that Noe agreed to Lan Qi's request so simply.
Anyway, the money given to this stupid son is not much.
I hope he can become sensible soon. May the goddess bless him.
It would be a great thing if he was not just pretending today, but was really so calm, steady, humble and polite.
As the night gets darker, the wall lamps in the spacious corridor on the second floor of the mansion glow slightly, immersing the entire mansion in a sense of tranquility and tranquility.
Most of the servants in the house have finished their work for the day and went to rest.
Of course there are also servants who have not yet got off work.
As soon as Lan Qi opened the study door, he found the maid waiting outside—
The maid named Francine is considerate and less afraid of herself than other servants.
Lan Qi found that she and the housekeeper seemed to be the only ones in the house who were willing to take her seriously.
After saying hello politely.
“Master, are you sure you are not deceiving me?”
Francine followed Lan Qi as he walked out of the study with some worry, and asked softly beside him.
She heard the conversation in the study just now, and she also knew very well how Lan Qi spent his time every day before.
The entrance exam for the Alchemy Academy is just a written test that includes exams on many subjects such as Kingdom Arithmetic, Pharmacy, Material Processing, Basics of Magic Engineering, Principles of Alchemy, etc.
Even if Lan Qi spent money to hire the best teacher now, it would be too late to start learning desperately.
“Just a mere entrance exam.”
Lan Qi chuckled and closed his eyes. His calm expression seemed to not care about the difficulty of the exam at all, and he had no intention of revising more intensively.
"Well…"
Seeing this, Francine even doubted that Lan Qi had really given up from now on and was experiencing the last carnival.
But she also knew that even if Lan Qi failed to enter the school, she would not go home and be scolded or be reduced to a quilt on the streets of the royal capital.
Young master can work flexibly in the royal capital.
You can definitely make a lot of money just by selling paintings.
“Don’t worry, I will study the exam rules tonight.”
Lan Qi sensed the maid's worry, smiled solemnly, and added with certainty, his eyes as clear as when facing the code.
"That's good…"
“Hmm? Exam rules?”
Francine was startled.
She always felt that there was something in Lan Qi's words.
Although it is definitely a good habit to read the notes carefully before taking the exam...
But what is there to study about the Alchemy Institute’s entrance examination rules?
Soon, after saying goodbye, Lan Qi quickened his pace towards the bedroom, leaving the maid with a confused and confused face in the hallway.
…
Go back to the bedroom and close the door.
Lanqi found the admission reference book for Icerita College from the bookshelf.
He came to the desk, pulled out the chair and sat down leisurely, slowly picked up the pen, stared at the book in his hand, and planned the schedule for the next three months.
He is serious about enrollment.
He did promise to his father that he would successfully enroll in school.
But he didn’t say which branch he wanted to enroll in.
"Although I have never been a fighter in my life, I only like to resolve fights... But if I really have to take action, I don't think I will lose if I am well prepared."
Lanqi flipped through the admission brochure of Icerite College and muttered to himself.
This academy includes the Alchemy Academy and the Magic Engineering Academy, which focus on theoretical research and backup support and are difficult to pass exams quickly.
Of course, there are also Houses of Sages and Houses of Knights that focus more on direct actual combat and tactical use.
Lanchi’s solution is simple.
That is, curved admission.
At that time, he can just change the academy he applied for from the Alchemy Academy to another branch.
Although the inspection points of the two academies of law and cavalry, which focus on actual combat, are quite different, the main themes of the inspections over the years have been the candidates' adaptability, character and temperament, and practical combat ability.
This is also closely related to the "Shadow World", the most difficult dungeon in the world.
The next three months.
As long as he can successfully produce some key magic cards with "Lanqi characteristics", he can then buy a few magic cards that can be found on the market to form a coordination.
It’s not like Lanqi can’t make an operation that would make all the college leaders’ eyes darken!
