247. Aid to the Orcs
A magic caravan sped past Marven's face, its wheels running over the potholed stone pavement, kicking up a cloud of smoke-like dust.
He walked a few quick steps across the street in front of the merchant, because he had lost an arm, he seemed to walk a little to the right, I kept urging him to go to the Orianna Magic Shop to buy a prosthetic leg, but Marven didn't think there was anything inconvenient about one hand, and didn't accept my suggestion.
Marven came to me and saw Ying Li sitting next to me, looking at him with a smile, he was a little surprised at first, he leaned over and smiled affectionately and said to Ying Li: "Look who is here, welcome Her Royal Highness Princess Ying Li, Miss Helena and Miss Becky to me." ”
Although I have not been in contact with other princesses of the Angel Bird royal family, in my opinion, Ying Li is probably the least shelf-free of all the princesses, in her heart she yearns for a quiet and peaceful pastoral life, her wish is also extremely simple, just hoping to have a magical herb garden, she never thought of becoming a potions master, just a royal princess who likes to raise magical herbs.
Ying Li showed two dimples on his face, and said to Marven with a smile: "Marven, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you still used to living in the imperial capital?"
Marven propped himself on the stone pillar with one hand, jumped upward, and then quickly jumped to the stone railing and sat down next to my left side.
Marven and Ying Li and I went to school together at the War Magic Academy in El City, and Marven and Ying Li were also classmates, and we talked and chatted with each other very casually.
Marven probed and said to Ying Li, who was sitting on the other side of me: "Fortunately, except for the fact that this side is a little hotter than El City, it is much better than our small border city in other aspects." ”
The shopkeepers across the street were waving to Marven from afar, and they didn't know how Marven had joined the crowd.
I touched Marven with my foot and asked, "Hey, have you ever asked those shop owners why they're so interested in canned luncheon meat?"
Marven glanced at me and said, "Speaking of which, this matter may have something to do with you." ”
"What does it have to do with me?" I looked puzzled, thinking to myself that I had been fighting with the constructed knights of the North Wind Legion outside Hierro for the past few days, and I hadn't sold canned luncheon meat in the imperial capital at all, and the canned luncheon meat of the orc tribe had reopened its sales in the imperial capital, what does this have to do with me?
When I thought about it, my mouth couldn't help but say it.
"Many lords in the imperial capital are looking around for canned luncheon meat and meat floss, and the reason for this is ...... It is said that the two kinds of food were combined with wheat cakes to make a marching ration, which was able to maintain the physical strength of the knights to the greatest extent, and these lords believed that how to maintain sufficient physical strength during the plane march was also necessary for the victory of the plane war. And this is from the mouth of a lord in the province of Durva, and it is said that the Knights of Construct have just won a victory in the Hierro plane......"
“......”
Marven and I looked at each other, and after a while, Marven asked me in a whisper, "...... Do those luncheon meats and meat floss bricks really have nothing to do with winning the plane war?"
At the moment, my heart is still quite complicated, if you want to say that it doesn't matter, you can't say that it doesn't matter at all.
But what if it matters...... There are many reasons to defeat the Nibru Spider Soldiers, such as the ten heroic Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion, the Barbarian Slave Heavy Ballista and the invincible Giant Crossbow Arrows, the tireless Orc Constructed Warriors and the Spitfire Squad, the War Ancient Tree and the 30,000 Dryant Warriors, and so on, but it really doesn't mean that the Constructed Knights have luncheon meat, meat floss bisque, and baked wheat cakes.
"There's a hammer relationship!" I said to myself.
Although I wanted to say that the victory of the plane war had nothing to do with whether or not I ate luncheon meat, I saw the expectant look on Marven's face, and said, "Okay, what do you think?"
Marven rubbed his hands vigorously and coughed lightly before saying to me: "As long as you don't stand up and clarify this matter, the orc tribe is still bundling and selling corpse fire oil and canned luncheon meat, if we want to hoard corpse fire oil, we must buy a lot of luncheon meat and meat floss bricks, now that the war on the Hiero plane has subsided, the Hiero plane probably doesn't need luncheon meat and meat floss bricks, right?"
He felt that after the end of the war in the Hiero plane, the Hiero plane no longer needed luncheon meat and meat floss bricks.
I shook my head and told Marven about the dilemma that the Black Forest of the Hiero plane was currently facing: " Trum Town should need some meat food recently, although the Nibru spider people retreated from the Black Forest, almost all the living things in the forest were killed, resulting in a very scarce food in the Black Forest now, if you want to find something to eat in the wild, you can only find some wild vegetables and fruits for the time being, there are still some adventure groups in Trum Town, they always have to carry some dry food when they go out on adventures, but they won't buy so much at once. ”
"It's a good thing, at least to get rid of the inventory of canned luncheon meat in the warehouse. Marven said to me.
Then he said, "I should take you to the warehouse later, and you can't imagine how many canned luncheon meat I have stockpiled here in the trading house in order to purchase corpse fire oil." ”
Marven is still a little worried that the backlog of canned luncheon meat on the side of the business bank will not be sold.
I think the orc tribe will gradually reduce the trade in these food products, or at least some restrictions on exports.
I said, "Since there is an army of the undead on the Pai Plateau, once the tribe fights, they have no plane to support it, and the food and magic herbs will almost be controlled as strategic reserve materials, not to mention bundled sales, this time you want to buy it I probably won't be able to buy it." ”
Marven was a little unconvinced, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Is this really the case?"
"You can go over there and see for yourself. I said to Marven, "I have prepared the ordinary Holy Silver Crossbow Arrows, you can arrange a magic airship to rush to the Pai Plateau as soon as possible in the next two days, and be sure to send these Thur Silver weapons." ”
Marven didn't expect the first batch of silver-plated giant crossbow arrows to be ready so quickly, and he said with a look of surprise: "So fast?"
Seeing that I nodded with certainty, I agreed without thinking about it: "Okay, I'll go to the airport town in the afternoon to prepare the magic airship, in addition to the holy silver crossbow arrows, what do you say we need to bring up this time?"
I said to him, "I still have some moonblade axes and hemostatic bandages in the warehouse in the airport town, I can bring as many as I want, this time I must set off as soon as possible, it is best to arrive before the army of wolf cavalry in the fortress of Gurudin departs, at least those wolf cavalry can be equipped with some silver-veined weapons." ”
"Oh, yes, and this ......"
"This is a weapon trading voucher with the orc tribe, without this, the magic airship probably wouldn't even be able to fly out of the airport town. ”
As I spoke, I handed Marven a magical parchment scroll with a red clay stamp on it.
