Three hundred and six, it is a good story
Since there is no way to help anymore, then I will carry all the burden alone. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info don't let her be so idle that she feels useless, in case she thinks of leaving.
Thranduil believes that now is the time to enjoy the nights, not to spend time on these plants that have lost their sunlight and are slowing down their growth. Seeing that the bold request did not cause the other party to be displeased in the slightest, but only slightly puzzled, Thranduil hurriedly explained: "Enjoy, of course, it is to listen to music and compare brand arts, eat delicious food and taste new wine." You know, but at a banquet with his king, you can't spend much time on food, and I've been hungry until now. ”
When Vernore hesitated to turn his head to look at the plants around him, Thranduil wasted no time in saying, "If he doesn't even have a little time to enjoy it, he won't want such a royal power to give it to Sauron for nothing." ”
"Okay. Vernor stood up, smiling and holding out a finger. "For the sake of the new wine that Avari has delivered, I'll be with you for an hour. ”
"The new wine was sent by Avary?" Thranduil was a little dazed. He didn't remember what the woodlands had done with Avari after the final battle. It wasn't until Vernor pointed to the faint glow of the faint halo surrounding the cloister not far away that he realized that the new wine might have been a gift from Avari as a gesture of friendship during his trade with the Woodland Kingdom.
"So some of the pearls that adorn the palace were purchased from Avalais?, and to be honest, the pearls sold by Avari were far inferior to those of the Telleri of the Kingdom of Linton, and could barely be used to decorate the facades of buildings, and never to be used on furniture or other items that were often accessed. ”
The Elven King, who has a great flair for close-quarters, still keeps an eye on the white pearls that smear the roof of the banquet hall even while enjoying the wine. He shook the wine glass in his hand in the opposite direction, and he showed a hint of dissatisfaction with a light smile. "Avari is not a maritime Thelleri after all, and the pearls produced are one order inferior to Telleri's in terms of size and luster. I remember that back then, these places were inlaid with colorful pearls from the Telleri tribe. During the day, they turn the sun's rays into a faint halo of seven colors, and at night, when the lights are on, the whole hall floats like a dream. ”
"Every other creature who has seen that scenery thinks that it is a scenery created by King Aurifel using magic, but King Ou does not deny it. As a result, Middle-earth is said to have King Aurifel who possessed powerful magic and relied on it to create a woodland kingdom. Do you also plan to follow the example of King Ou and make other creatures think that you also possess powerful magic, so that they do not dare to have bad thoughts about the woodland?" Funorr also raised his eyes to look at the pearls inlaid on the wall, and said with a little disappointment, "If you plan to do this, then you must purchase pearls from the Kingdom of Linton." Avari's pearls really don't give the look you want. ”
According to Thrandil's knowledge, all the pearls in the palace of the Woodland Kingdom came from the Telleri tribe of the Linton Kingdom before this. This deal was definitely a good story for the elven race during the time of King Orifell, as both sides in charge of the trade were very satisfied. At that time, Serdan was not King Linton, but only Gilgalad's deputy. In order to solve the problem of the funds needed to build ships, the Tellerians under the jurisdiction of Serdan would exchange pearls for money. Every time the Telleri acquire a new batch of pearls, they will always be transported to the Woodland Kingdom for King Orefer to challenge. It is no exaggeration to say that the pearls purchased by other countries in Middle-earth are all leftovers picked by Aurifel. The reason why he was given the first choice is, of course, because of the shrewdness of King Orifer.
While the other creatures traded money for pearls, King Aurefel traded wood from the Great Green Forest. Not only that, Ou Wang also took the initiative to transport the adult timber to Serdan for him to choose first. This move not only earned the right to choose pearls, but also allowed Sedan, who focused on shipbuilding, to go to sea several times to catch rare pearls.
"It seems that these are the ones that the old fellow of Serdan himself went to the sea to find. Looking at the few pearls in the hands of the attendants with satisfaction, Aurelfeld pointed to the largest one and ordered: "Send it to the queen first, and the queen will pick the rest and take it to the relevant officials to arrange." ”
Thranduil, who was only 47 years old at the time, blinked and asked, "How does the ADA know that it must have been a pearl found by Master Sedan, and is it any different from our common pearls?"
"Not only are they big, but they reflect a pale golden glow no matter what the light is, and they are the best gold pearls. This pearl is obtained in the very deep seas, and in all of Middle-earth, only Serdan can dive into the sea where the golden pearl is located. ”
"But didn't Lord Serdan not go to sea for many years because he wanted to build ships?" Thranduil was still puzzled. The Serdan he knew, who was not particular about food, clothing, shelter and transportation. It is very difficult for any living being to be impressed if it does not pursue material things. And that's exactly what happened. The reason why the Tellerians, ruled by Serdan, exchanged pearls for supplies was only to settle the materials for shipbuilding.
"It's not hard to impress Serdan at all. As the largest forest in Middle-earth, we have enough to impress him. As for letting him go to the sea himself, it's even simpler. With a sly smile, Aurifel whispered to his only son, "When you want a golden pearl, cut a few pieces of wood that are more than a thousand years old and send them to Serdan, and he will surely go to the sea to catch the pearl in return." It's a pity that there is no Mellon wood in the big green forest. ”
The lure of wood was the solution that Aurifel discovered in a letter from Kellerpeng. The finest golden pearls caught by King Serdan have been used as inextinguishable lamps in the Forest. When Trilankel added five Mellon trees unique to the wood he shipped to Serdan, he asked Serdan to return the favor with the best golden pearls in Middle-earth. If the big green forest also has melon wood......
Thinking that the Mellon Wood was a tree species aided by Galadriel's powerful spells, and that it was impossible for him to let such a tree grow in the Great Green Forest without the Spirit Ring of the Double Sacred Tree, Orifer chuckled self-deprecatingly and reminded Thranduil again: "Remember, if you want a golden pearl, you can send Serdan a precious wood that is more than a thousand years old." ”
At that time, King Ou only subconsciously reminded him, not knowing that he would disappear in Middle-earth, leaving Thranduil alone to guard. The elven king, who had withdrawn from his memories, was infinitely emotional, and raised his hand to ask the attendant to call Edmund over.
"If I'm not mistaken, the pearls used to be made were made by the Telleres. Why did you suddenly change to buying from Avaray?"
Seeing that Edmund turned from excitement to panic because of his own words, Thranduil had no choice but to cough lightly and show a smile, beckoning Edmund to sit down.
