"What are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and call your ladies together?" Gavin urged from the side.
He did this, of course, not just to attend the banquet of the halflings, but to further promote the relationship between the halflings and the fey.
The cooperation between the two parties has just begun, and they cannot maintain this state of being in the same place but not knowing each other.
If they don't add fuel to the fire behind them and rely solely on themselves, they don't know when the day will come.
"No need to say hello, they have already arrived." Nicole cut off the thorn with one finger.
Suddenly, a burst of irrepressible naughty and joyful laughter spread from the broken thorn branches.
Small and exquisite figures appeared on it one by one. They were hundreds of Pixies, mainly from Huami Village, supplemented by those from other villages.
Apparently, they arrived for a while, probably while Gavin was arranging the broken thorns to be filled with wine.
Their curious nature that likes to join in the fun makes them like to join in busy places.
Gavin was accustomed to this, and said with a serious expression: "You can attend the banquet with me, but there is one thing, you are not allowed to be invisible, and you are not allowed to play tricks."
Nicole murmured in a low voice: "Where is this one? It's obviously two, okay?"
"Those who have any objections may not participate." Gavin added in a cold voice.
"No, no objection, absolutely no objection, let's go." Nicole promised repeatedly.
Don't care whether others have opinions or not. You must not have any opinions yourself, otherwise Gavin will definitely use himself as a warning to other people.
This is the price of being too familiar with each other.
In the hands of ordinary people, a heavy truck is a large and cumbersome object.
In Broken Thorn's hands, it was like a toy car. Even if it was loaded with goods, the rope would be hung behind the buttocks, and it would be empty.
Those Pixies were also lazy and didn't even fly. They sat on the broken thorn branches and chatted with friends, swaying and feeling uncomfortable.
Duan Ci was not impatient at all when these friends of nature gathered around him. On the contrary, he liked them very much.
Treants and fey are the most common symbiosis in nature.
Many elves directly placed their villages on the tree people.
These Pixies were no exception and did not care about the rooms Gavin had carefully prepared for them in the manor.
On the contrary, they like to gather at the Broken Thorns to stay overnight, or go directly to the Grijings as guests.
The relationship between the two different fey species is actually extremely harmonious.
Broken Thorn's tall figure was very conspicuous even in the night. They were still hundreds of meters away from the Anbao Ship Village garrison, and the halfling discovered them.
The halfling leader Avery and several halflings hurriedly came out to greet them.
Gavin smiled from afar and said, "We came uninvited, so we didn't cause any trouble to you."
"Lord, what are you talking about?" Avery responded with a smile, "This is what we want. If you were not too busy, we should have invited you to come to our banquet."
"Actually, I came here specifically to apologize. As I said before, why are you invisible again?" Gavin felt there was no movement behind him, and when he looked back, all the Pixies were gone again.
Nicole emerged from Gavin's shoulder, stuck out her pink little tongue, and said sheepishly: "I'm used to it, I'm used to it, come out, come out, otherwise don't blame me for driving you back and not letting you attend this banquet.
"
Hehe! Haha!
There was a burst of uncontrollable laughter coming from Duan Ci. The Pixies flapped their wings and came out of invisibility one by one. They were just as shy as a bride who had just entered the door. Each of them hid most of their body behind Duan Ci.
.
This situation gave Gavin a deeper understanding of fey's shy temperament.
No wonder, in my previous life, I lived in Faerûn for most of my life and was taught all kinds of monsters and monsters, but I rarely dealt with fey.
These fey are so evasive to kind people, let alone soaked in the black mire in their previous life, and are in the lawful evil camp. It's a damn thing that those fey are willing to pay attention to me.
In this life, I feel that fey are so common and easy to deal with.
Mainly because of the Golden Destiny Milestone, followed by the Supreme Fairy Wilderness Contract.
When they all appeared, Gavin continued the previous topic and said: "I believe you have sensed it to some extent. I also have a group of fey employees who have been working with you, but they are too shy and have been embarrassed to meet you.
I often play pranks behind you, and even sneak into your banquets and take your food without telling you."
Although I had known that Gavin had a group of fey employees.
But seeing the number of fey on Broken Thorn's body still surprised the halfling leader.
Not to mention hiring felines to work for you, under normal circumstances, it is not easy to meet felines.
In the land of Three Rivers, there is a Grizzling that has been their neighbor for many years.
Except for druids and lost children who have dealt with them before, most halflings have never had the chance to see them.
This strengthened Avery's guess that this lord was by no means an ordinary person, but a big shot from the elves.
Thoughts were swirling, but the halfling leader responded with a calm smile: "Lord, you are too ignorant. It is our honor for them to attend our banquet. Besides, they did not come empty-handed. Our children are all here."
Those who accept the gifts from them are our guests."
"It's not a banquet with meat but no wine. Today's wine is mine." Gavin smiled and pointed to the car of black wine behind him. "It can be considered a celebration banquet for our initial successful cooperation."
"This is really too precious, we can't take it away." Avery shook his head repeatedly and said, "Lord, you may not know that your black wine from Vizeme has been spread outside. There is a
It's nicknamed ghost wine, and you can't buy it for ten gold coins a glass.
Those merchants are rushing here as fast as they can. In a few days, those wine merchants will break down the gate of your vineyard. Lord, please keep it for sale."
Most of the time, Anbao Boat Village does not act collectively, but is divided into countless small fleets, living in groups on the Asaba River.
Regarding the recovery of the Vizeme Manor and the re-signing of the employment agreement with Funamura.
As the ships came and went, it reached the ears of every halfling.
Every day, new houseboats join the ranks of Anbao Boat Village, along with news from both sides of the Asaba River.
The past ten days.
The news that Vizeme Manor was recovered and that a batch of unique black wine was produced from the cellar spread not only throughout the Battle Valley, but even throughout most of the valley.
This kind of black wine is respectfully called ghost wine by those who have tasted it. It is said that when you drink this kind of wine, you will have the illusion of being embraced by a ghost.
This horrifying statement not only did not scare off those who tasted it, but instead aroused the interest of more curiosity seekers, even if it cost a high price.
"Miss Regina's actions were really fast. She pushed out our black wine so quickly." Gavin couldn't help but sigh.
He was not surprised at all by the news revealed by the halfling leader.
Including the name ghost wine, because this was a gimmick that he and Regina had discussed and finalized half a month ago. Only in this way could he attract more attention.
"It turns out Miss Regina is helping you with publicity, so it's no wonder." Avery suddenly realized.
Not long after the recovery of Vizeme Manor, the whole valley knew about it, and there must be someone behind it, but I didn't expect that it was the princess of Battle Valley who was behind it.
Mrs. Estelle mentioned this matter to them as soon as they met. Previously, she just thought they were pulling the tiger flag.
Now it seems that what they said is true, it is just that my vision is too narrow.
"No matter how the price changes outside, wine is for people to drink." Gavin did not change his original decision because of this news.
To him, the car was not just about wine, but also about people and worldliness. It was used to bring the two parties closer, and its value was secondary.
"No, this won't work, the gift is too heavy..." Avery kept shaking his head. According to the current market price, this car of ghost wine is estimated to start at at least 10,000 gold coins, which is equivalent to the value of their three brand-new houseboats.
What you will drink then is not wine, but gold coins.
This is not something they can afford, but is prepared for the wealthy people in Sambia.
"The gift has been given, how can it be taken back?" Gavin didn't give the other party a chance to argue. "From now on, the wine belongs to you. Whether you drink it or not is your business. We have decided to attend this banquet.
, What are you waiting for? You have been watching others perform dances these past few days, don’t you want them to appreciate our fantastic aerial dance? "
The last few words were obviously meant for those Pixies.
This sentence directly scratched the itch of those Pixies, and they were already itching unbearably.
Without Gavin's wink, Nicole took the initiative and said: "Let's go, brothers and sisters, we can't live up to the Lord's kindness. Let's play, sing, and dance."
It was easier to handle it with the one taking the lead. As Nicole flew and danced in the air, the other Pixies left Broken Thorn and joined her.
The team further grew as they entered Anbao Ship Village. Apparently there were already some Pixies who had snuck into the banquet and were now attracted by their companions.
"Mom, Dad, come and see, that young lady, she gave me the apple the day before yesterday. I told you that the Pickling Spirit really exists. You still don't believe it. Believe it now."
"It's really a pique. I didn't expect so many."
"What a beautiful person, what a beautiful dance. Are we sure we are not in a dream?"
"Even in my dreams, I have never dreamed of such a beautiful person or such a beautiful dance."
"It's really amazing."
The fantastic sight of the Pixies dancing in the air left the halflings stunned, suspecting that they were in a dream and had forgotten all about their dancing.
But soon, he was infected by the cheerful rhythm of the Pixies and was driven to jump up.
Reflection in the air, on the boat, in the water.
They were all dancing figures, making the dreamlike scene even more intense.
This move was executed first and then played out, leaving the halfling leader Avery with no choice but to accept Gavin's gift. At the same time, he thanked repeatedly: "We have too many places under the care of your lord. Not only do you allow us to dig in your territory,
Wild vegetables and even all kinds of game harvested in the vineyard are half sold and half given away. This is the first time we have experienced what it feels like to eat meat every meal for ten days in a row.
Now I have to accept such expensive wine from you.
You are the kindest and most generous lord I have ever seen in my lifetime.
It will be the happiest thing to live under your rule."
Gavin invited half-heartedly: "Then stay and settle here. I promise to let you live this kind of life every day."
