In the end, Xino declined this special gift and asked the giant bear named Clays to take the queen bee's hive back and eat it himself, and told him to apologize next time and not to do such a thing again.
, if she wants to eat honey, she can go to the nearby market and buy it. Kress was a little dejected after being rejected as a gift. After hesitating for a few times, she turned and left, leaving everyone with a lonely figure.
, it looks like a big dog that was abandoned by its owner - assuming you ignore its height of more than ten meters.
"It looks very sad. How about you accept the gift?" As a kind-hearted and just enthusiast who also likes small animals, Alice couldn't bear to see this kind of scene, so she tried to persuade her, but it was very difficult for her to do so.
Quickly, the next sentence revealed her true thoughts: "If you don't like it, you can give it to me. I love honey the most!"
Shameless guy, you said the same thing the last time you ate almond cake.
Everyone looked at her sideways, and a certain Princess Bemang who had been robbed of an almond cake silently closed her eyes, unwilling to look any more.
Xino was also shocked by this shameless statement. He took a moment to react and shook his head gently: "Forget it. If I accept this gift, let alone Claes, I'm afraid other people in the forest will
People who are aliens will think that I like to eat honey, but I can’t let the queen bees suffer because of me.”
Everyone recalled the attitude of the aliens towards Xino that they had seen along the way, and they all felt that this was very likely to happen.
Xino glanced at Alice's disappointed expression and chuckled again: "However, if Miss Alice likes honey, I heard that the most authentic Northenweig Crown Honey is being sold in Mason Department Store. If I have free time later,
If you have time to go to the city, I will buy one for you and take it as a meeting gift from me to everyone, how about it?"
The "City of Beekeepers" Northenweig is a small city in the Saint-Denis department. It is about the same size as the windy city of Avion in the Thalia Fields, but it is just like the windy city of Avion in the fields of Thalia.
Just as primrose is world-famous, Northenweg's honey also enjoys a high reputation internationally. Among them, the best-quality crown honey can even be described as a luxury product. It is said that during the Kingdom Era, this honey was sold by Gessen.
King Li Ke II listed it as a tribute and was exclusively used by the royal family and a few nobles.
In Ellinger's opinion, giving such good honey to Alice is a bit of a waste.
The golden retriever maid disagreed. She felt that she was worthy of such a good honey, so she nodded repeatedly, looking excited and expectant. If she had been given a tail, she would have started to wag it: "Okay, okay, you
Don’t forget it!”
"Don't worry, Miss Alice." Xino seemed to be amused by Alice's reaction, her eyebrows curved. Of course, she always loved to laugh, but now she just smiled more happily: "If you have enough energy,
Then you must be very enthusiastic when entertaining guests. This is one of the ancestral mottos passed down from generation to generation in our Goldstaff family."
"Then when will you be free to go to the city?" Alice pushed further.
"Well." Xino thought for a while and replied: "Usually, I go to the city every half month to meet with friends and so on. In addition, if there is anything
If you can’t buy what you need in a small town, you have to go to the city to purchase it, such as materials for road repairs.”
As she spoke, she squatted down and tapped the stone slabs on the street with her fingers, making a crisp sound. Her tone was a little helpless: "I have told Shangquier a long time ago, and asked him to restrain his people and not to walk on the streets.
They run at full speed, but they still often forget. Such a good stone slab will be damaged within a few months, and then I will have to go to the city to find a stonemason to make a new batch."
Medien also imitated her and squatted down, looked at the stone slab with curious eyes, and asked: "Who is Shanquel?"
"The chief of the mountain centaur clan." Xino replied: "They are more accustomed to living in unobstructed mountains and plateaus, but there are many inconveniences in the forest. Both daily life and hunting and gathering are affected, so these
Roads are important to them."
Metien tilted her head, Xie Mi also tilted her head, and then Leticia next to her also tilted her head. The three little girls were like three owls, staring at Xino: "Since
If it's very important, shouldn't it be cherished more, but they have trampled the road like this."
Ringer took a look and saw that the pits and dents on the stone slab really looked like the marks left by horses' hooves.
Most people might not be able to withstand the glare of the little girls, but Xino seemed to be able to handle it with ease. He explained with a smile: "There is nothing we can do about it. The mountain centaurs are already very heavy.
In addition, they have an instinct of running and sprinting in their bones. Even if they move slowly at first, they will eventually turn into a thundering and furious gallop. It is said that in ancient times, the cavalry regiment formed by mountain centaurs was known as a cavalry regiment.
It is because of this nature of the army that there is no return, and nothing but victory means death. This cannot be changed, and I can only remind Shanquil and his tribe to pay more attention."
Medien let out a long "Oh" and learned another little knowledge about aliens. Then she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could this be a kind of ADHD unique to the mountain centaurs?
It's really a profound academic question.
but.
"Since they damaged the road, they should repair it themselves, right?" Alice couldn't help but said. She didn't care about the money, she just defended Xino from the perspective of a pure passerby: "Why do you still have to do it?
Are you going to buy slates and come back to build the road?"
"Miss Alice misunderstood." Xino said with a smile: "They do know how to repair roads. This is also the responsibility of the mountain centaur clan. It's just that they lack the materials and tools needed to repair roads, so they need to obtain them through me.
That's all. Afterwards, they will exchange with me the food they grew or collected, the furs of wild beasts, and iron tools. Not only the mountain centaurs, but also other aliens in the forest. For example, the gray-feathered harpies will use fruits,
Wood and rare feathers are exchanged with me for the ropes, medicines and weapons they need; the Biberg family will use mushrooms, herbs and insects to exchange seeds, fertilizers and farming tools with me. Other scattered small settlements
Not to mention, so it’s not entirely a unilateral contribution of the Goldstaff family.”
That being said, the values of the two are not the same, and Xino is still suffering a loss.
Everyone understands this truth, but the girl herself doesn't seem to care. As outsiders, they naturally can't say much.
"alright."
The girl suddenly stood up, her snow-white ponytail swaying in the wind. She turned back and smiled at Ringer, still holding her big broom in her hand, sweeping up a lot of fallen leaves along the way: "The road is also cleaned.
That’s almost it. Next, I wonder if you would mind if I go to the Cloud Whale Sky Island you mentioned and be a guest for a while?”
