Chapter 426: I see
The city of Terrera is very big. Like many ancient cities with a long history, it has the difference between the old city and the new city. As the facade of a county, the shops of the Tarakhan Chamber of Commerce are naturally located in the old city, although almost to the old city. On the fringes, but ultimately still a high-society area where address alone is enough to show off your status, the Eternal Art Institute is located in the new city, almost on the busiest street in the new city. The two areas were separated by about ten kilometers.
The panda was in a carriage on the edge of the old city, and the carriage could not go fast in the city. It took almost an hour and a half. By the time they arrived at the Academy of Fine Arts, it was almost past lunch time.
Of course, the panda would not just send the coachman away and take him to eat at the restaurant next to him. Terrella’s dishes are somewhat similar to the style of Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, light and slightly sweet, neither like Molai’s crazy use of sugar, nor heavy salt, heavy oil or spicy like the northern countries. People don't feel happy enough, but it actually tastes good when done.
This meal made the coachman smile - he was usually reluctant to eat such a high-end meal, and he would never meet such a generous passenger.
Pandas don't matter. The price of Trella is much lower than that of Molai, and this meal has nothing to do with delicacies. To eat according to this standard, the "Molai characteristics" he ate in Molai Hong Kong was enough. Been eating here for days.
With his net worth, even if he doesn't make money now, eating and drinking like this every day is enough for five or six years. What's more, he is still earning income—yesterday, the New Year's Eve of the 780th year of the mainland calendar, the traversers had a discussion, and made a qualitative determination on the ownership of the assets of the Tara Khan collar. According to the results of the discussion, Panda can get about 3% of the net profit of Tara Khan collar this year. Although it is not as high as 8% of Liu Daoqing's, it is already amazing.
By the way, as Earl of Tarakhan, Anthony can receive 5% of the credit for his long-term handling of government affairs.
The person who proposed this meeting was Locke. He said that there are no rules and no circles. Whether it is occupation or construction of the Tarakhan collar, it is the result of the joint efforts of all traversers - or at least a large number of traversers - there is no reason. The end result is shared by a few.
This meeting obviously made Anthony very unhappy. During the whole meeting, his face was not good-looking, but he finally accepted the resolution discussed by everyone.
The final resolution of the meeting was that the financial situation of the Tara Khan collar must be supervised by a regularly rotating supervisory team. At the end of the year, in addition to retaining 30% of the net profit for next year's expansion of production, the rest will be distributed proportionally. ; Forty percent is allocated for the passers-by, including pandas, a total of 45 passers-by can share the wealth in different proportions this year; as for the last 30%, as the guild's common property for emergencies.
At that time, Sanyu refused. He felt that the guild had nothing to spend money on, so it would be better to use the money for the construction of the Tarakhan collar, but Loke had the support of the Homecoming faction—if you want to go home, you must Carrying out a large number of magic experiments, these experiments will definitely consume a lot of money, and it is impossible to start stockpiling early.
With the support of the traversers, especially the income of agriculture, alchemy and sugar, the current financial situation of Tara Khan is improving rapidly and can get a lot of profits. In this year's settlement alone, Panda can get almost 6,000 gold coins.
Although it has to be re-settled every year after that, how many people can be determined to be able to share the money? How much can each person get? But according to the development of Tara Khan Collar and the active situation of Panda, I believe that in the future, he will only get more and more dividends.
With money in hand and a stable source of income, you are naturally full of confidence.
Saying goodbye to the driver who wanted to wait for him to leave, Panda came to the "Eternal Art Academy".
This Academy of Fine Arts was originally the residence of a viscount. After being bought, it was renovated, giving up the original solemn and elegant style, and became full of artistic atmosphere - the crafts used for decoration on the eaves changed from exotic animals to The statues were replaced, and the heavy gates were replaced by light fence gates. There were no fully armed guards at the gate, only a few smiling young men and women, each holding a pair of pen and paper, looking at the people coming and going on the street. Pedestrians observe, jot down a few sentences or draw a few strokes from time to time.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Panda frowned slightly... He always felt that the situation in front of him was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.
Could it be that the Academy of Fine Arts is also an important location in the game? But why didn't he have a clear impression?
Seeing the panda coming, a young girl asked, "Uncle Orc, what are you doing here with us? We are an academy of fine arts, and we have nothing to offer you."
Panda smiled: "I'm the owner of a caravan. Some time ago, a group of my employees said they were going to take a vacation, but they came to Trela with their salary advance and didn't go back. I'm very worried about them, come and ask. Only then did I find out that they actually came to study art. To be honest, I was very curious, how can those guys learn art without even writing their own names? So I came to find out the specific situation.”
The boys and girls suddenly realized that they all knew the group of former pirates.
It was the same girl who nodded and said, "You've come to meet the other party, and they're here right now—but they didn't come to study art, they're here to work."
"Part-time work?" Panda was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Just say it! Only one or two are talented, how could each of those guys have artistic talent!
It's just... they're so good, why are they working here?
He had some doubts and asked.
The girl smiled and said, "When they visited our art exhibition, they were probably drunk and damaged several paintings. One of them was a famous painting, which was very valuable. They couldn't afford it, so they had to work here to pay off the debt. "
Only then did Panda understand the truth, and asked again, "Then why do they say they are here to learn when they tell others?"
"Come to study... Actually, it's not impossible to say that." The girl said, "Although they work here, our bishop never forbids them to attend lectures. , The young painters who are studying at the same time are almost the same.”
Panda was a little surprised: "So...they are really learning to draw?"
"It can be regarded as learning..." The girl was obviously a kind person, and she didn't want to speak ill of people behind her back, so she smiled a little embarrassedly.
Looking at her smile, Panda knew that the word "learning" had a lot of water, and the group of former pirates probably learned a little bit of fur—no, maybe not even fur.
He smiled, and was about to ask some more about the situation of those people, when he suddenly remembered something the girl said just now, frowned, and asked, "Are you here...is it some kind of church organization?"
"We are the shrine of the **** of beauty and art here." The girl's eyes lit up, "Although this is only the first shrine established by our church, I believe that sooner or later there will be our shrines all over the world, so that those who love beauty will have our shrines. , people who pursue art can learn at any time!"
Panda gave an "oh" and finally remembered.
Isn't this place the scene that was harmed when the game was revised!
