The Golden Throne

With the introduction of cement, the right side of the town started developing at a terrifying speed. As the town now had hundreds of workers, Liu Feng could start working on multiple projects at once. He had a few literate people start on the production of red bricks, and used the stones to start building a huge city wall. He planned a huge wall that encompassed a three hundred square kilometers area, and was as big as the Capital city itself. But this wall was actually more ambitious, and it was taller. He also planned for an inner town wall, so that the residents were protected from people coming from outside and were put in the detention camps on the outer edge of the city.

The population was steadily increasing, but they were all content with the new lord. Liu Feng wass introduced as the Young Lord of the city, and he gained a huge popularity. All was going according to his plan, and the town was also earning huge amounts of money. The merchants wanted some land to create their own market, but Liu Feng was unwilling to give up land immediately as he believed it would be a loss. So, he started renting out lands per annum, and earned the town hall a huge sum of one gold bar. With the economy growing by this much, it was interesting many other nobles from the capital, who wanted to invest in the city in exchange for land.

Liu Feng denied them all. He wanted to hold a monopoly on this city, as he wanted to call it his, and his alone. It appeared that Liu Feng could truly pull off a miracle and make Dilheim a city by the time he went to the academy.

One day, his curiosity got the better of him, and he took a few guards and left for the magic academy, as he wanted to see how it looked. It was just an hour away, but after half an hour, he could already see it on the horizon. THe academy was huge, almost as big as the castle in the Capital. When he reached the academy, he saw that although there was still a month left for school to reopen, there were many students there. Liu Feng entered the grounds, but his guards were stopped for security reasons. It seemed that many students spent their summer breaks here instead of going back home.

Liu Feng was happy of course, because it was a business opportunity. He went to the administrative office and checked in, and paid the school fee. It seemed that if the king himself there would be suspicions, so Liu Man ordered Liu Feng to pay the fees all on his own. After that, he was assigned a dorm room. It was mandatory to stay in the dorms until the fourth year. It was something about mages being too precious to leave outside without protection.

He also had to share the room with three others, and it seemed that he was a bit unlucky in this regard. He had to share the room with the prince of Elvan, Alderan Elvan. They had apparently taken on the kingdom's name as their last name.

"Any person who does that as a statement is definitely way too arrogant to share a room with a Baron's son. I will apply for a room change later. First let me see the man. I always wanted to see elves, and it is interesting that a prince did not go to his home on vacation."

Liu Feng went to his room, where Alderan, and two others were fighting. One of them was Filden Hornmaker, a son of a duke in the kingdom of Darv. He was clearly a dwarf. The other one was Terasion Wyke, a son of a duke in Aegon itself, but he was from another city, so Liu Feng did not meet him yet.

Liu Feng stepped forward and greeted the three. The three stopped fighting and Terasion warily asked, "Who are you?"
