And just when Oripus was worrying about what excuse he should use to summon the elf families who didn't come, suddenly a clan member came over to report that the patriarch of the Diamond Lu family came to "drink tea"!
"Please! Please!"
Oripus stood up subconsciously and said quickly.
It wasn't because the [Diamond Dew] family was so powerful that it made him panic. After all, no matter how powerful [Diamond Dew] was, it was not one of those high-ranking families with the "Name of the Sun," "The Name of the Moon," and "The Name of the Star."
The reason why Oripus was so excited was because he had just sent the patriarch of the Diamond Lu family away in person.
It is rare for elves to leave and then return immediately. If this happens, there must be some accident.
And if the other party comes to him, what else can they talk about besides talking about the boarding list?
Oripus is very happy that the family is about to gain new heritage!
…
They said they were drinking tea, but as soon as the two elves met, they didn't even have time to take a sip of the tea. Heli, the patriarch of the Diamond Dew family, couldn't wait to speak, "It's so rude, it's all the fault of the human lord!"
Oripus knew that there was an accident, but he did not know the inside story before. When Heri said it was related to the human lord, he quickly became concerned, "What's wrong? Did something happen to the human lord?"
"He actually wants a group of human traders to board our ship! And registration has already begun!" Heri said angrily.
In his opinion, that fleet already belonged to the elves. No matter how the elves argued, it was the elves who boarded it in the end, and this was the main reason why he had not agreed to the conditions proposed by Oripus before.
The elves still talk about face among themselves. At worst, they can force some family members onto the ship. Although it is a bit of a loss of face, when it comes to the survival of the family, face is nothing!
But now that humans are involved, the situation is a little different.
Heli felt a little coy, gritted his teeth, and directly stated his intention, "Chief Oripus, I know you can influence the human lords, please be sure to fight for the quota of all members of the Diamond Dew family to board the ship!"
The so-called influence on human lords is actually the influence of the Silverleaf family on the Liaton Chamber of Commerce, and the Liaton Chamber of Commerce on the Saville Territory.
There is a member of the Silver Leaf family who once married a human and spawned a family in the human world. This is not a secret, and there is no need to inquire about it. After all, this incident only happened more than a hundred years ago, and this incident back then
The incident was quite sensational.
For elves, memories are very profound.
In the past, this was considered a scandal, but now it is an excellent opportunity. After the Silver Leaf family came to Savileland, they moved directly into the manor of the owner of the Liaton Chamber of Commerce. It can be seen that the Silver Leaf family is also making full use of this opportunity.
Influence.
As for the influence of the Liaton Chamber of Commerce on the Saville Territory, as long as the elves who have done business in Conifera City most of the elves know the name of the Liaton Chamber of Commerce. This is a company that acts as a middleman between humans and elves by virtue of the owner of the chamber of commerce having elven blood.
, and thus the Chamber of Commerce started.
In this process, the Silver Leaf family is always present. Without the Silver Leaf family's permission, how could a human chamber of commerce contact and visit the elves in the name of the Silver leaf family?
Therefore, when Oripus hinted that he could influence the final boarding list, almost no elves would doubt it. If he doubted this, wouldn't he doubt the influence of the elves?
The elves would rather pay a certain price to an intermediate elf than take advantage of humans. Maybe they also know that there may be human lords involved, but as long as they think it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist.
This is the elf, sometimes he deceives himself into being cute!
…
When Heri said "please fight for it" in front of Oripus, in Oripus's view, this was almost equivalent to letting him go, but it was also because of his damn dignity. Oripus couldn't really be arbitrary.
Demands.
If you really do this, you will only find yourself an enemy, not a friend, or in other words, a customer.
"Since Chief Heli trusts me so much, I will live up to his trust and strive to allow all members of your family to board the ship."
"Thank you, thank you, Chief Oripus!"
The two elves had a tacit understanding and did not put forward any conditions, but they both knew that if the conditions hinted by Oripus before were not met, it would be almost impossible to get a place to board the ship.
Just when the two elves were about to exchange a few words, a young member of the Silverleaf family suddenly came over to report that another elf came to "drink tea"!
Harry immediately left with interest, and Oripus began a new round of reception work.
…
In the north area of Savile Town, in an Elven Manor near the river that was temporarily requisitioned to house elves, in an independent forest hut, the only 12 members of the Morrowind family were facing a difficult decision.
The city where they were originally located was attacked by the drow in a silent night, and almost all family members were lost, leaving only the last twelve members.
And these last twelve elves will also shoulder the important task of inheriting and strengthening the Morrowind family.
but now--
Cadreira suppressed the anger in his heart. He looked at his brothers and sisters and tried to imitate his grandfather's indifferent manner, but in the end the anger couldn't help but burst out:
"Is the Silverleaf family really an elf family, not a vampire family? How dare he say this! Is the Morrowind family's inherited classics something that his little Silverleaf family can care about! I'm so angry!"
Although the Morrowind family is not a high-ranking family with the name of "Sun, Moon and Star", it is not a problem to crush a small Silverleaf family in its heyday.
But now that Oripus hinted that he could exchange classics or heirlooms for a boarding spot, Cadreira was almost furious.
If he hadn't been worried about being in human territory, he could have taken out the family treasure on the spot and taught Oripus a profound lesson, letting Oripus know that some classes can never be crossed.
"Brother, what should we do now? I heard that the human lords are planning to let those damn human traders board the ship. Are other families still willing to continue to compress space for us?"
His sister's words made Cadreira calm down a little. He thought about the current situation seriously and expressed his thoughts, "I have decided to take you through the Listal Forest to the Kingdom of Akora!"
"Ah——" Cadreira's sister screamed, and the other brothers and sisters also looked embarrassed.
Although elves are often called "sons of nature" or "sons of the forest" by humans, they know exactly how much water there is in them. Facing an unknown forest and heading to an unknown country, this really makes them fearful.
