"If there are no other issues, let's disband for now, and we can adjust the details later."
"Yes, Minister."
"Yes, Lord Ian."
Everyone stood up.
Vivian was even more relentless, as she needed to verify the reliability of these formulas.
"Lord Ian, your personal carriage is being made to order. What are your requirements?" Ed stopped and looked at Ian.
"Comfort and defense are the priorities, and the appearance should be as good as possible."
Ian thought for a moment and said.
His requirements weren't high; after seeing the airship, this kind of carriage couldn't attract his attention at all.
"And your previous wizard robe and wizard staff, the department currently has the materials, and if it's convenient for you, sir, we can upgrade them to the upper level of zero ring," Ed continued.
"Of course it's convenient, but that would be troublesome."
Ian nodded.
It must be said that the treatment one receives after becoming a minister is completely different.
Soon, Ian handed over his original wizard robes and wizard staff to Ed and changed into ordinary clothes.
Then Ian looked at Queenie to the side and said directly, "Let's go straight to the Plant Department. I want to see the new plants."
Queenie was also taken aback.
Is it really that decisive?
"Of course."
Queenie nodded.
To be honest, while she was grateful, she wasn't entirely convinced of Ian's abilities.
After all, magical plants are a field of knowledge that requires in-depth research; they cannot be understood simply by concocting magical potions.
Riley and Renee, who were nearby, were fine, so they decided to go and check on them as well.
soon.
Within the academy, the Plant Department has only one large botanical garden, located at the easternmost edge of the Logistics Department.
It occupies a large area.
As soon as Ian entered, he saw a large field of magical plants growing in front of him, brimming with magical energy.
But Queenie led them to another laboratory.
Inside the laboratory, a dozen magical plants were being cultivated in a pool of nutrient solution, and they looked slightly withered.
"The magical plants from different regions will vary in various ways due to their place of origin, and these are no exception. We are currently researching suitable living environments for these magical plants."
Queenie explained.
Cultivating a mature magical plant is no easy task, which is why they are unwilling to give up.
Ian casually picked up one.
Plant identification activated.
Observe simultaneously with the Eye of Harmony.
The others also looked at Ian with curiosity.
Several researchers, in particular, didn't take it seriously, treating it merely as a new minister making an inspection tour.
But a few seconds later, Ian spoke up: "Four-leaf clover is a common multi-elemental magical plant. It can be planted in the usual way. However, due to the influence of the Green Shadow Forest environment, this one is obviously more earth elemental, so it's better to plant it with more earth element."
More earth element?
Queenie was taken aback.
"Let's test it out!"
She gave the order immediately.
Soon, a bottle of nutrient solution with a higher concentration of earth elements was delivered. After putting it in, the leaves of the four-leaf clover could be seen unfurling halfway.
Queenie was stunned.
What kind of unbelievable observation skills are these?
"The earth element is decreasing by one-tenth," Ian said again at this moment.
"go."
Soon, a new culture medium arrived, and the four-leaf clover was placed in it. This time, the four-leaf clover's branches and leaves fully unfolded.
this????
At this moment, not only Queenie, but also several researchers, and even Riley and Renee standing nearby, looked at each other in horror.
Although they weren't from the Plant Magic Department, they understood just how outrageous this was.
To be able to identify the components of the magical plant at a glance, and even provide a solution, is something that even Hyde in the past could never have done.
Hiss!
Perhaps he is more familiar with four-leaf clovers.
But soon, Ian casually took out another magical plant and continued to explain his solution.
The researchers focused intently, afraid of missing a single detail.
After Ian presented his solution, he immediately went to work on it.
Soon, seeing the second plant that was clearly in better condition, they finally realized that this was probably not an isolated case.
As for Ian, with his talent for identifying magical plants, these plants held no secrets for him.
Combined with the analytical and observational abilities of the Eye of Harmony, he found it almost impossible to encounter any difficulties.
So just over an hour passed.
All the demonic plants in front of them were then dealt with.
"Now I understand why Lord Horton wanted to take you as his apprentice."
At this moment, Queenie's gaze towards Ian had completely changed; it was one of utter admiration.
Awe and submission to the truth.
Renee and Riley looked at Ian with a more cautious gaze.
"Let's stop here for today. We'll deal with the rest later."
Ian shook his head. He had basically resolved the issues with the Plant and Potions departments today; the others would be dealt with gradually.
"Okay, I'll see you out."
Queenie immediately led the way for Ian.
Farn's lips twitched; this was his job!
And you weren't like this before! Where's your backbone as a minister?
Meanwhile, Renee and Riley hurriedly left, as if their feet were on fire.
"You'd better watch out for these two," Queenie suddenly said.
"Oh?"
Ian looked at her.
"Lord Riley was in contact with Lord Willow before, and Renee has also been in contact with Ronan recently. The External Relations Department and the Combat Department will have some overlap," Queenie reminded.
"Then why didn't you tell me before?" Ian asked instead.
Queenie was somewhat embarrassed at this point, and said, "This is not even a demonstration of your understanding of magical plants, sir."
O
Ian nodded.
Indeed, becoming a minister does not represent everything; the intricacies involved and the considerations of these wizards also need to be taken into account.
the other side.
After leaving the Department of Plants, Riley went to the Department of Mystic Sources and soon met Willow.
"Is my junior really that good?" Willow was also somewhat surprised when she heard Ian's actions.
A hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes.
"Tsk tsk, let's see how he performs from now on. The external relations department is the real problem."
Willow shook her head.
If she performs well, she will cut off contact with Riley; it's not important to her.
the other side.
Renee also met Ronan.
"Hehe, those wizard families are not easy to deal with. He's just a newly promoted third-level wizard apprentice. He'll still have to come to me for help when the time comes."
Inside the house, Ronan, with his short blond hair, looked confident.
"Yes."
Renee nodded.
Unlike the Horton School of Wizardry, the Blackrock School was originally composed of several wizarding families, so the family wizards were very powerful, and several of them were senior wizards.
This is also the biggest problem facing the logistics department at present.
Ian's biggest problem is whether he can deal with these wizards.
This is actually a problem that many wizards in the academy are watching closely. If Ian can solve it, then everything will be fine.
If it cannot be resolved.
Then these wizards would definitely rush in like hungry wolves, even with Horton's support.
After all, they dare not disobey openly, but they have too many underhanded methods.
Ian was unaware of all these intricacies.
He had already returned home, but had just arrived at his doorstep.
But he saw a middle-aged female wizard, followed by another beautiful wizard.
It was Margot, the leader of the Silver Wolf Clan, and Lucy.
At this moment, Lucy kept her head down completely, not daring to raise it even slightly.
"Lord Ian, you're back."
Margot stepped forward and said respectfully.
"What are you doing here?"
Ian gave her a puzzled look.
"Of course I'm here to apologize to you. I only found out today that we asked Lucy to apologize to you, but she didn't."
Margot was cursing inwardly at that moment.
If it weren't for that idiot Lucy, she wouldn't have needed to be so subservient today.
"Is that so? But that's no longer important."
Ian recalled the scene and said something felt off, as if something was missing.
"Rest assured, our Silver Wolf family certainly has no ill intentions towards you, and we are willing to compensate you for the harm you have suffered."
Margot handed Ian a storage ring and said.
Ian sensed it briefly with his mental power.
They gasped in surprise; there were quite a lot of resources inside.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Margot push Lucy forward a step and say, "It's all Lucy's fault. I believe she should be prepared to pay the price. She's at your disposal."
Ian looked at Lucy, whose figure and looks were absolutely top-notch, and his expression became strange.
"Do as you please."
Margot gently lifted a corner of the wizard's robe, and Ian could almost see the fair skin underneath—as well as the almost ridiculously little fabric.
Margot, you bastard?
Ian also gasped.
At this moment, Lucy was trembling all over, and the immense humiliation almost made her faint.
But she also understood just how much trouble she had gotten into for her family.
A deputy minister of potions and a logistics minister are two completely different things!
The latter can truly determine the life and death of their family.
"Lord Ian, I am willing to serve you if you wish!" The proud Lucy finally bowed her head completely, her pride shattered.
She believed Ian wouldn't refuse.
However, Ian chuckled and said, "I'll take the resources, but I'll leave the people to me. I've never cared about them."
I never paid attention to it.
Lucy looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief.
It turns out that this was the problem she had always thought it was.
Ian didn't even care.
The enormous impact hit her brain, her vision blurred, and she finally collapsed unconscious on the ground.
"You..." Margot held Lucy and couldn't help but say.
"Take them away, as long as the Silver Wolf family behaves themselves," Ian said.
"Thank you, sir. The Silver Wolf Clan will be your most loyal companions from now on. Don't worry about Lucy causing you any trouble; I will send her away from the Emerald Shadow Forest later."
Margot lowered his head and said.
Ian nodded.
He quickly watched the two leave, then turned and went back to his home, ready to see the large amount of resources he had received over the past few days.
But as soon as I went in, I heard a knock on the door.
As soon as the door opened, Chris, who was as beautiful as a red rose, walked in.
Ian was still angry.
Looking at Chris, he finally couldn't hold back anymore.
Chris was taken aback, but the next second Ian picked her up.
Heading towards the second floor.
