After a long silence, Niya suddenly moved her shoulders and said to Xia Duo, "I'm actually looking for you today for another reason."
"Oh?" Seeing that Niya seemed to be about to get down to business, Xia Duo walked away from her, sat back across from her, and then asked, "What's the matter?"
"Many merchants came from Conefira City some time ago, and more and more elves have entered Savile Town recently. They want us to send a ship to take them to the north."
When Niya said this, she glanced at Xia Duo carefully. It was impossible to have unlimited ships in the territory. Each ship had its own purpose. At present, the only idle ship near Savile Territory was Xia Duo's "Lucky"
Owen".
Sha Duo heard what Niya meant, and it was a good thing to send those unstable factors away. However, the "Owen" had to frequently transport food to Linshui Village recently and for quite some time to come. Sha Duo could not let these people go.
The ship was gone for several months.
After thinking for a while, Xia Duo did not refuse, but said, "Do you still remember the fleet that I contacted Belera to transport the new citizens after the snow melting competition? Counting the days, it should be in the near future, those guys
You won’t be able to wait for a few days, right?”
Hearing what Xia Duo said, Niya's eyes suddenly lit up, "Another ship is coming?! There should be more than 2,000 people in Daxia Territory now, right?"
"Absolutely. I don't know if the Dragon Disaster will affect the transportation of new citizens. If everything goes well, there should be nearly 10,000 people in Daxia Territory this year."
"That's great. I think when our ancestors first came to explore the southern border, they only brought a few thousand people with them." Niya was quite emotional about this.
"That's the current policy. Her Royal Highness has provided a lot of support to the pioneers."
Speaking of this, Xia Duo was also very emotional. Although the mainland has been overpopulated in recent years, he can't decide whether others will provide it or not. From this aspect alone, the princess is indeed a determined pioneer.
Feeling that the topic had gone too far, Xia Duo returned to the matter of the ship, "The ship from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to deliver magic materials to the Tower of Time this quarter should be arriving soon! I don't believe that in just these few days, Drow can
Fight all the way to Conefira City, break through the five mage towers, and then fight to us."
"It's really unlikely."
Niya agreed very much with Xia Duo's words, but when she thought of those messy inland merchants and elf refugees, she had a headache. "Forget it, let the Oripus chief have the headache. It's not that the Saville Territory doesn't provide ships, it's just that
Have to wait a few more days.”
"That's right. Whether it's the mainland merchants or the elf refugees, Patriarch Oripus is very useful."
Xia Duo smiled and took out the jar of "Bo Nu Yuan Ye", preparing to show it off with Niya, and of course share it. Unexpectedly, Niya recognized it at a glance, "It's 'Bo Nu Yuan Ye', from
Where did the Oripus patriarch come from?"
"Um."
"It seems that the leader of the Oripus tribe really wants to stay in the human world!" Niya said suddenly with meaning.
"How to say?"
"Elves have always strictly prohibited Bonu Yuan Ye from flowing into the human world. It is said that drinking it for a long time will help improve the affinity with the magic network. This is very precious even in the elf country. Any elf dares to openly admit it.
Anyone who sells 'Bonu original leaves' to humans will be punished."
Niya looked at the hollow mithril jar in Xia Duo's hand, feeling a little depressed, "My father spent a lot of money to buy some from the black market in Conifera City, and it's not even a quarter of what you have in this jar."
More than one.”
As if she suddenly thought of something, Niya leaned towards Sha Duo and lowered her voice a lot, "Maybe we should ask the Oripus patriarch to see if we can find tea tree seeds. There are so many
Elf refugees, maybe there are elves carrying the seeds with them!"
After hearing what Niya said, Xia Duo couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't even drink the tea, but he was thinking about other people's tea tree seeds. However, Niya's words also reminded him that not only tea tree seeds, most elves are rich (at least compared to humans).
), maybe we can actually find some treasure!
It is definitely not possible for humans to come forward. After all, no matter how dilapidated they are, most elves still have a condescending attitude towards humans, but it is just right for the elves to come forward.
The only question now is whether the leader of the Oripus tribe is willing to be this "elf traitor and comprador"!
Shado has never seen an elf act like the Oripus clan leader, behaving almost like a human businessman. I guess as long as the conditions are right, he should be willing!
However, elves are elves after all, and it’s hard to ask directly about this kind of thing, otherwise, if you are rejected, this relatively harmonious relationship may return to its original shape.
Seeing Niya's expectant look, Xia Duo couldn't bear to break her cold water and just said, "I will find a chance to talk to him."
"Then you have to hurry up. When the ship comes and they leave, it will be too late!"
"Why are you so late? There are so many elven refugees at the supply point in the east and the city of Conifera. It's not like only the elves who come to Savile Territory can have tea tree seeds!"
But having said that, Shado still wants to talk to the Oripus clan leader as soon as possible. After all, the elves who can come to Savile to lead all have at least high-level mages in their families, but they were temporarily recruited.
In terms of possibilities, it is indeed the elves who come to Savile Territory who are most likely to possess tea tree seeds.
…
After talking about the elf refugees, Shaduo and Niya did not talk about any other topics. Instead, they drank tea quietly and enjoyed this rare leisure time while looking out the window at the pioneering scene of the people of Daxia.
In the afternoon, Xia Duo was ready to return to Linshui Village, but this time he did not go back alone, but invited an elf friend to go with him.
Linshui Village, Altar Square.
Two figures standing side by side suddenly appeared in the corner of the square. It was Sha Duo who had just returned from the legend and the elf Oripus. Looking at the familiar scenes around him, Sha Duo introduced to Oripus:
"Chief Oripus, this is Linshui Village. Welcome to Daxia Territory!"
"What a nice territory!" Oripus looked around and praised a little.
But this is not entirely a commercial boast. When he first teleported here, Oripus was attracted by the neat and almost identical group of wooden houses on the north side of the square at first sight.
The paths between the wooden houses and the square at their feet are also paved with bricks of the same size. Although the pavements of these buildings are still rough and not very exquisite in the eyes of the elves, they also have another strange sense of order and beauty.
When he put aside his prejudices and lowered his attitude, Oripus discovered that many advantages of humans and the human world are worth learning from the elves. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but said: "Lord Shado, can I visit the Great Xia Territory?"
"Of course, I'll ask Priest Leiden to show you around!"
Just as he was talking, Layton arrived. Although he was a little confused about why the lord brought an elf to the territory, he was still not rude in front of the elf. In addition to saluting the lord, he also gave a slight greeting to Oripus.
Seeing Leiden coming, Shado immediately ordered: "Leiden, take this elf friend around the territory!"
After that, he said to Oripus, "Chief Oripus, if you have any questions, you can ask Leiden. If he can't answer it, I will answer it for you later."
"Thank you Lord Shado."
…
Watching the two people leave, Shado summoned Leiden again and gave some careful instructions before coming to the cafeteria, where he was going to prepare some food for his elf friends.
