"Ysera Crystal Box, a magical space that slows down the effect of time, I have only seen it in books in the past, but I never imagined that I could see the real thing with my own eyes, and even I am a little envious of His Excellency Siri's wealth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Eric looked at the crystal box, his eyes glinting.

The crystal in Xili's hand is octagonal, about 10 centimeters wide and 7 centimeters high, and the object inside is faintly visible, and a bright green band of light surrounds the surface of the object, slowly swirling.

"Haha, it's just an inferior Ysera Crystal Box, which only has about 15 magic coins, so it's only three times the time slowing effect, and even then I'm glad to have been blessed by Lady Luck, haha. The green ribbon of light dissipated the moment it opened, and Ciri took out a two-finger-wide piece and said to Noah, "Look, this is the white truffle." ”

What? That brown lump, lump of wet mud turned out to be a precious white truffle? The point is, is it delicious?

Anastasia saw Noah's surprised expression, and her tone was indifferent: "Many people have this expression when they see white truffles for the first time. ”

Eric patted Noah on the shoulder and comforted, "Although the face is not very good-looking, it tastes delicious." ”

Noah took the muddy lump suspiciously, with a strange expression, "This... This thing is obviously raw..."

Xili had already put away the crystal box, patted his big belly and laughed: "White truffles are meant to be eaten raw, oh, this is the best food in the world, even if it is blessed by Lady Luck, it is not often eaten." ”

Eric nodded and sighed: "That's right, there were white truffles at the banquet originally, but there was a problem with the teleportation array, and I don't know where it went." ”

Space magic is the most problematic, Noah has a deep understanding, he glanced around a few people, and felt that there was no need for a few people to lie to him, this piece of white truffle is not big, about the volume of two thumbs together, Noah hit it twice, and once again confirmed that this thing may be barely edible, and threw the white truffle into his mouth and chewed it.

"Hmm, it's fragrant, it's a little sweet, the taste is okay, hey, hey, what's your expression?" Noah looked dissatisfied, this white truffle was not enough to chew a few times before it was gone.

Anastasia turned her head, Ciri felt a little dry in her throat, and touched her bare head to find something to drink, when the maid happened to pass by, and hurriedly picked up the goblet containing champagne from the tray, and raised her glass to Eric's void, the sweet and foaming liquid moistened her throat like honey.

Eric shrugged his shoulders and looked at Noah with a strange expression: "It's nothing, it's the first time I've seen someone eat white truffles like this, and you haven't chewed a few times, right?

"What's wrong?" Noah grimaced, Anastasia and Siri's silent atmosphere made him a little embarrassed and unhappy.

"Forget it... It doesn't matter, by the way, Siri, this shouldn't be the white truffle of Tuscany, even if there is a Ysera crystal box, it is impossible to keep it for so long, has a new origin been discovered?" Eric turned to Ciri, in fact he did not expect to get an answer from the mouth of this cunning merchant, as we all know, white truffles are only produced in small quantities in Tuscany, if a new origin is discovered, it is tantamount to excavating a gold mine, no, it is a diamond mine, who would give away their treasure?

What's more, it can be inferred from Ciri's words that this newly produced white truffle has a shelf life of far more than half an hour in Tuscany, and if it is used and exploited, it must bring an astonishing fortune.

The corner of Ciri's eyes noticed that Anastasia nodded slightly, her two slightly chubby hands were clasped together, and she looked around left and right before saying: "Yes, don't hide it from Master Eric, we have indeed discovered a new origin of white truffle, and after our verification, its shelf life has reached an astonishing ten days, and the taste and texture are no different from the Tuscan variety, this is an amazing discovery, and our alliance trade attaches great importance to it." ”

"Oh, how could you tell me such important news?" Eric was a little surprised, but then hid himself and said quietly, "It looks like you're in trouble." ”

"Yes..."Ciri glanced at Noah, Eric waved his hand and said indifferently, "It's okay, you can say it." ”

Xili cleared his throat, his body arched slightly, and there was no wrinkle in the brocade clothes behind him, he lowered his voice, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth: "Indeed, I don't need to hide anything, in the southern barren land of the Beamon Kingdom, there is an ancient sycamore forest, where the yield of white truffles is amazing,, speaking of which, my heart is dripping blood, and those kobolds actually eat white truffles like potatoes." ”

"The kingdom of Beamon... Kobold..."Eric frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he understood the purpose of Ciri and Anastasia's coming here - to seek cooperation with his father, which meant that they were also involved in Andre's plan, and Ciri was able to say this only because of his status- The son of Duke Andrei, the heir to the title, gives enough respect and even an illusion of respect, in fact, his thoughts are not important to Ciri and Anastasia at all, Ciri is just making a statement, an honest statement, after all, what kind of help or advice can a 10-year-old boy give?

"So, I'm guessing you want to get garrison rights in Canossa City?"

Ciri looked at Eric in surprise and spread his hands: "Lord Andre told you?"

"No, I'm just guessing, everyone knows that this is a big cake, with the strength of alliance commerce, I definitely want to eat it alone, I'm telling the truth, please don't mind, the most economical way to enter the wild land is to send troops from Canossa City, on the other hand, the kobold is known as the cancer of the Beamon Kingdom, and when he was expelled to the barren land by the Prophet Gael, it is almost equivalent to giving up that land, and Gael is the "end of the war", the "peace chieftain" of the beast clan In fact, he will not interfere too much with the chariot that you have swept through the wastelands, and sufficient compensation will make him determined to eradicate this cancer. Eric paused, observed Siri's expression, and added, "My father obviously didn't understand this. ”

Ciri didn't know what the expression should be at the moment, the expression on his face was wandering, in fact, he just opened his mouth slightly, his lips moved up and down, and his mind was reorganizing the language, the important assumption in the negotiation with Andrei was that Gale would not tolerate the invasion of the territory, and for Andrei he was only to lend the right to garrison, this kind of empty glove white wolf was naturally willing to accept this condition, but what if there was no quagmire of a long war?

Anastasia looked at Eric, her green eyes were like fireflies in the mysterious forest at night, exuding amazing charm, but her language was ethereal and almost emotionless: "Being able to say this, Master Eric is really impressed, the alliance needs the help of Duke Andre, and we have paid enough price for this." ”

It is worthy of being one of the most mysterious three giants of alliance commerce, Anastasia hardly speaks, and when she speaks, he is speechless, although Andre did not tell him the conditions of alliance commerce, he can also guess that it must be Andrei who cannot refuse, and even if he participates in the division of this cake, he may not really be able to benefit, after all, Andrei does not have such an extensive and even terrifying network of alliance commerce.

Eric's face changed slightly, this conversation didn't seem to end very happily here, he was obviously not ready, and secretly blamed himself for being self-righteous and smart, especially the sentence that Andre didn't understand this, it was quite a bit of a handle to threaten, he suddenly felt that it was good to know a lot of things, but it was not good to say it.

Ciri smiled and said a few words of praise, and only after the atmosphere eased up did he leave with Anastasia, Eric politely watched the two leave, and then turned his head to look for Noah's figure, only to find that he was concentrating on dealing with the barbecue on the plate, shaking his head slightly, hey, his eyebrows were burned, and this guy still had an indifferent expression.

At this time, Noah, who was full of greasy, looked up in the direction where Eric was, and looked puzzled, is that kind of dry mud-like thing so good? However, he would never have imagined that one day he would become the lord of the Southern Badlands, and be neighbors with a group of kobolds, and happily sell white truffles from there.

Noah took a light breath, his face was solemn, and he walked towards Noah, he had already figured out how to speak, but the news was indeed too shocking.
