Chapter Seventy-Nine: Achieving the Goal
"I didn't expect to achieve my goal so easily, it seems that I am still lucky!" Although he encountered an assassination attempt and almost lost his life, Zhou Tian was still in a good mood at that time, because compared to the danger he had encountered before, Zhou Tian's harvest this time made him feel extremely satisfied.
For Zhou Tian, what he was worried about before was how to cooperate with those elves, after all, whether Zhou Tian wanted to or not, he was now a nobleman of the Orc Empire, even if he was a nobleman and the Orc Empire were not of the same mind, but in the eyes of outsiders, he was still a member of the Orc Empire.
And according to the relationship between orcs and elves, it is not easy for Zhou Tian to persuade those elves to help him build a magic array, even if he is willing to spend money, it is estimated that it is difficult to establish that magic array easily.
It's just that no one thought that he was going to make contact with those elves first, and then mention it when the time was right, because an assassination actually allowed him to achieve his goal. At the moment, according to the assassination matter, Zhou Tian has already pinched the weakness of those elves, and now that they know his identity, it is estimated that if they don't want to offend the King of the Red Dragon, they will not regret this 'trivial matter'.
In fact, the reaction of those elves at that time was indeed not what Zhou Tian expected.
When Zhou Tian led those elven magicians out of the realm of the elven empire and into the orc empire, the faces of those elven magicians immediately darkened. However, even if they were unhappy, and even because of Zhou Tian's identity, they were already faintly hostile to him, but in the end, they still didn't have any intention of repenting.
Even if he will be an enemy of Zhou Tian after today, those elven magicians will still help Zhou Tian set up that magic array. One is that those elven magicians dare not offend Zheng Tailong, according to Zhou Tian's statement, this magic array was built for Zheng Tailong, how dare those elf magicians go back? Another and most important reason is that the elves are relatively arrogant, and according to their kind of character, they can't do anything that goes back on their word.
So whether it was to offend Zheng Tailong or his own personality, anyway, after knowing Zhou Tian's identity at that time, although those elven magicians looked at Zhou Tian's eyes in disgust, but in the end they didn't say anything, and they returned to their territory with Zhou Tian like that.
"What are you doing here?" Seeing that Zhou Tian's orcs gathered together to dig the canal, those elven magicians couldn't help but ask Zhou Tian questions at that time, whether they were curious or had other purposes.
"We are preparing a canal for commercial use, and at the same time, my territory needs a certain amount of water, and this canal will be the source of drinking water for the residents of our territory in the future. If I can, I am also going to plant some fruit trees at both ends of this canal, I heard that you elves are good at planting, I don't know if there are any good tree species to recommend?"
Undoubtedly, Zhou Tian's words are still quite pleasing to the elves, after all, the elves themselves don't like war, and the reason why the relationship with the orcs is so poor, in addition to the fact that the orcs often cut down trees, the main reason is that the orcs are too aggressive, and from time to time they launch wars of aggression to disrupt the life of their elves. This made the elves fight directly with the orcs to this point when they couldn't bear it anymore.
Now, Zhou Tian said that he was more interested in business, and he was also preparing to plant trees, all kinds of reactions all showed that Zhou Tian had a completely different style of acting compared to other orc lords who only knew about invasion, at least for elves, neighbors like Zhou Tian who did not start a war and developed with peace of mind were more popular with them.
As a result, after listening to Zhou Tian's words, those elven magicians who were originally very hostile to him changed their attitude towards him. After nodding approvingly, indicating that Zhou Tian's plan was good, an elven magician directly assured Zhou Tian: "If you really want to plant trees in your own territory, I can help you contact the tree herder."
"Thank you very much. did not refuse, Zhou Tian responded to the other party's proposal in one bite.
Zhou Tian's words before are not false, the two ends of his canal are really going to be planted with fruit trees in the future, one can ensure that the soil erosion is not too serious after planting plants, and the other is the most important reason, if the fruit trees are planted for a few years, not only can the residents of their own territory eat after the fruit is born, but even Zhou Tian can completely exchange those fruits for CSB.
At that time, Zhou Tian was only worried about whether he could plant those fruit trees alive, in this case, the elven magician at that time actually wanted to help Zhou Tian contact the shepherd, and Zhou Tian had no reason to refuse.
The shepherds, also known as the tree people, have a special existence, not only are they few in number, but they also rarely go out. Therefore, except for their shadows that can be seen in the territory of the Elven Empire, it is generally difficult to see the Shepherds in other areas. And the combat effectiveness and survival habits of those tree herders have nothing to pay attention to for Zhou Tian, the reason why Zhou Tian immediately agreed with the elven magician's suggestion after hearing their names is only one reason, that is, the tree shepherds planting trees can almost guarantee that the planted trees can have a 100% survival rate.
Even if it is a desert type, it can only ensure basic water use, so some specific trees can be planted according to the methods of the herders. Because of this, when the environment becomes too bad and it is necessary to plant trees to improve the environment, all races will only look for elves, the reason is that the tree herders are the vassal families of the elves, and only the elves can invite those tree herders.
I heard that the shepherds were all transformed from 10,000-year-old trees according to the power of divine magic, so although Zhou Tian was confident that he could make a lot of money, he was also confident that he could do a lot of things with money. But for the almost desireless existence of the shepherd, he really couldn't think of any way to ask the other party to help him.
Right now, the elven magician can help Zhou Tian invite the shepherd to his territory, which is a good thing for him. After all, with the shepherds out of the house, the fruit trees that Zhou Tian wants to plant not only do not have to worry about the survival rate, but even the varieties and even the maturity time can be improved to a certain extent.
Zhou Tian's gratitude to those elven magicians didn't take it too seriously, after all, they didn't make the decision to please Zhou Tian. It's that the elves themselves are constantly trying to expand the forest area, and the survival of the shepherds is for this purpose, since Zhou Tian has the heart to plant trees, these elf magicians don't know that it's okay, since they know Zhou Tian's plans, it's not surprising that they decided to help him contact the shepherds.
"Thank you, there's no need, where is the residence of the Red Dragon Prince, we'll leave after we finish setting up the magic array. ”
"This way, please!" The elven magicians were not polite to him, and Zhou Tian was not angry at the time, and after smiling, he led them directly towards the location where he had originally decided to build a brick factory.
Frowning, when Zhou Tian led those elven magicians to the location where they were about to build a brick factory, those elven magicians instinctively sensed that the place that Zhou Tian had taken them to was not like a dragon's lair. First, the dragon usually does not stay on the ground, and the other depends on the situation in the neighborhood, and it seems that he is still preparing to build a house on Sunday.
When have you seen the Dragon's House?
Based only on what they saw at that time, those elven magicians at that time had reason to suspect that the magic array that Zhou Tian had set up for them might not have been inhabited by Zheng Tailong.
It's just that......
Although those elven magicians had already suspected Zhou Tian's purpose of letting them lay down the magic array at that time, even if they doubted Zhou Tian's purpose at that time, it was impossible for those elven magicians to leave because of this. After all, everything at that time was just their guess, and the magic array that Zhou Tian had set up for them didn't seem to be harmful. In this way, although it was doubtful that the magic array was really intended to be used to improve the environment of Zhengtailong's residence, in the end, those elven magicians still chose to remain silent, and according to Zhou Tian's arrangement, they set up a magic array in their designated location.
Undoubtedly, those elves didn't want to cause trouble again this time, so the elven magicians sent out were not only powerful, but also extremely accomplished in the magic array. After Zhou Tian pointed out the location, I saw them take out a bunch of materials and fiddle with it, and in less than an hour, they actually set up the magic array.
"Put a fire attribute magic core here to activate the magic array, the magic array does not consume much energy to activate, the first-order magic core can last for a month, as for how to use it, it's up to you. After a brief introduction to the magic array, the elven magicians at that time directly retreated at that time: "If there is nothing to do, then we will leave first." After saying that, without giving Zhou Tian a chance to reply, those elven magicians directly lifted off into the air and flew away in the direction of the elven empire.
"Wait......" Zhou Tian didn't want those elven magicians to leave like this, after all, there were still many things in the elf empire that made Zhou Tian greedy, and now that he finally got in touch with the elf clan, Zhou Tian hoped to communicate with them more.
It's a pity that although Zhou Tian wanted to communicate with those elven magicians at that time, it was obvious that those elven magicians didn't care much about Zhou Tian.
Therefore, although those elven magicians should have heard Zhou Tian's words at that time, in the end, they ignored him. In the call of Sunday, he flew back directly.
"It's a pity, I don't know if there will be such an opportunity next time. Seeing the performance of those elven magicians, although Zhou Tian was unhappy, he had no way to deal with them, he missed this opportunity, and in the future, Zhou Tian didn't know if he would have a chance to establish contact with those elves. At the moment, he missed the opportunity to establish friendship with the elves, which is a pity for Zhou Tian.
However, at that time, Zhou Tian's mood came and went faster, because at the same time as those elven magicians left, because the magic array he needed had already been built, and his original plan could be started at that time.
