If you have a good relationship with the herdsmen, you don't have to worry about planting needs in the future. And to establish a friendship with the elf in front of him who has a high status, then as long as the other party is willing to help, Zhou Tian will also have the opportunity to meddle in the business of the elf empire, and exchange a large number of valuable plants from the elf empire according to certain goods.

Medicinal herbs or fruits, no matter what they are, as long as Zhou Tian can establish contact with the elves, he will have a chance to get them. And according to the information Zhou Tian got from those mercenaries, Zhou Tian believed that as long as he could come up with something that the other party was interested in, then the relationship between the two parties would definitely be established.

With that kind of thought at the time, it was also the reason why I was afraid that the elf in front of me was like a tree shepherd, so I left without saying a word. When Zhou Tian made up his mind to establish business relations with him, he immediately chose to take the initiative to mention it.

"Thank you so much for this incident, if it is convenient for you to stay for a few days? In the meantime, I have some things I would like to discuss with you, and see when you are free for us to talk privately?" he said politely, and then Zhou Tian did not wait for the elf to reply, and then he also said his intentions.

The elf himself didn't have the idea of staying in Zhou Tian's territory for a long time, after all, Zhou Tian didn't count, but most of his people were orcs. And it's no secret that the relationship between the orcs and the elves is bad, and in the orc-infested area, the elf must not be very comfortable, so it is not surprising that he would want to leave.

However, although the elf also wanted to leave like a tree herdsman, in the end, Zhou Tian had some weight in his heart, and he also wanted to have a good relationship with Zhou Tian, and after listening to Zhou Tian's words, he didn't mind talking to him.

As a result, after listening to Zhou Tian's words, the elf who was already about to take steps had to stop at that time, and after looking back at Zhou Tian, he hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to ask: "It's not necessary to be a guest, but the lord only needs to mention anything about it, and you don't need to be polite to me where you can help." ”

"That's the case, I heard that your elves are short of sugar, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

"Lord Lord, I misunderstood, our elves are not short of sugar, but the people like sugar, and the sugar produced by our elven empire is not enough to be self-sufficient, so often as long as the sugar transported to our empire will be swept away, and finally this misunderstanding occurred. Although he didn't know what Zhou Tian meant by asking that, the elf who listened to Zhou Tian's question at that time still answered without thinking about it.

And Zhou Tian didn't care whether the content of the elf's answer was consistent with what he wanted to hear, after listening to the other party's words, he immediately replied at that time: "So, as long as you mean that edible sugar is very popular in your empire?"

"That's true. Listening to the string song and knowing the meaning of elegance, although Zhou Tian did not say it explicitly, but after the elf heard his words, he immediately knew what he meant. And it was interesting enough, after knowing Zhou Tian's intention to leave him, he took the initiative to mention to Zhou Tian: "What, do you have edible sugar in your hand and are ready to make a move?" If that's the case, then I can help you get off the line. ”

Listening to the elf's words, Zhou Tianzi smiled at that time. After all, the reason why Zhou Tian said the previous words in front of the other party was because it was inconvenient for him to say this sentence at the moment. Now that he has received the promise of this elf, Zhou Tian also trusts the other party's promise with his previous experience, and in this way, Zhou Tian was relieved at that time.

Zhou Tian himself didn't think about monopolizing all the business of the elf empire by himself, so as long as this elf could help him, as for how far this elf could help him, Zhou Tian didn't care about it.

However, according to Zhou Tian's character, he is not ready to let only the elf take the line, Zhou Tian believes that no matter what kind of creature it is, even if it is an elf, it will definitely be moved by interests. It's nothing more than whether Zhou Tian's current interests can attract the other party, as long as Zhou Tian has something that the other party is interested in, then Zhou Tian really doesn't believe that the elves are really nobler than other creatures, and he will not be tempted at all in the face of interests.

For example, before, Zhou Tian was able to expand the green area of his territory, and immediately he won the favor of the current elf, and even without mentioning it, the elf had already helped him invite the shepherd over. In this way, although it seems to be nobler than other creatures, on the whole, Zhou Tian still drove the elf with what the other party was interested in.

Now the same is true, since Zhou Tian is ready to use the relationship of the elf in front of him to make money in the elf empire, then whether he repays the favor or is afraid that the other party will not do his best, it is best to pull the other party to do it together. Anyway, according to the resources in Zhou Tian's hands, as long as the elf doesn't mess around, normal trading will ensure that they can make a large profit.

As a result, according to the situation at the time, after listening to the elf's words and getting the help of the other party, Zhou Tian did not let him go, but immediately mentioned it to him at that time: "There is no need to mention the connection, I do have a batch of edible sugar in my hand ready to sell, if your elf empire can digest it, it is the best." But I'm not going to sell it directly for money, I want to exchange the sugar for medicinal herbs and fruits from you. Of course, it's best if you're willing to sell logs, but presumably you don't usually sell them, so it's okay to have the best and not to have them. As long as the price is right, I can come up with the same value of edible sugar as you have as many fruits and herbs. And I'm going to leave this to you to do it, according to your ability, it will not be difficult to get those goods, and then you bring the medicinal herbs and fruits, and I can directly trade with you in the territory!"

Although Zhou Tian didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was already undoubted, and perhaps ordinary elves couldn't see the hidden meaning of Zhou Tian's words. But the elf in front of him is different from ordinary elves, and according to his previous performances, it is obvious that although he is an elf, he is not simple. Since he is proficient in human relations, the hidden meaning of Zhou Tian's words at that time will inevitably be understood.

It was precisely when he heard the hidden meaning of Zhou Tian's words that the elf hesitated for a moment, and finally hesitated, but the result was still an affirmative answer as Zhou Tian expected.

"In that case, then I'll go back and fetch some fruit to trade with you. "Reject Zhou Tian's 'kindness', that elf doesn't have this kind of thought, if Zhou Tian really has a lot of sugar, it will not be a bad thing for the elf empire, after all, sugar is not only liked by elves in this world at the moment, but also by most living beings as long as their living conditions are good. The Elven Empire itself produces the most edible sugar, and they themselves are not enough, so you can imagine how big a gap there is in the Elven Empire. That is to say, the elves do not have much pursuit, and there are many opportunities to make money in the forest, otherwise according to the various performances of the elves, their lives are estimated to be not as good as they are now.

Although the elves are not short of a few dollars to buy sugar, they can't buy enough sugar with more money, so it is obviously better to buy the required edible sugar with the money at the market price. And if Zhou Tian is really like what he said, if he can exchange any amount of medicinal herbs and fruits for edible sugar, then it means that Zhou Tian has a channel that can provide a large amount of edible sugar. In this way, not counting what he could get out of it, it was just that he could find a new way to buy sugar for his empire, which in the eyes of the elf at that time was a reason why he could not refuse Zhou Tian's proposal.

Of course, the elf would never admit that he must have been tempted by the interests of this. After all, no matter how noble the elf is, he has his own pursuit, he can eat sweets every day, who wants to eat fruits, he can live in the best house, and who wants to live in the branches? he can buy what he wants, and who wants to go shopping, just look at it and not buy it?

Even if the elf is more restrained from desire, but when he really faces temptation, as long as he doesn't touch their bottom line, like Zhou Tian's win-win proposal now, it doesn't count the elf in front of him, and if he is in his position, he will definitely not refuse.

Therefore, when Zhou Tian put forward that suggestion, he was not afraid that the other party would refuse, otherwise even if Zhou Tian had this heart at that time, he would not have said his thoughts so easily. After all, the elf was only acquainted with him but not very familiar, if Zhou Tian's proposal was rejected by him, it would be a slap in the face for Zhou Tian.

But fortunately, no matter what the original situation was, at least for now, the elf's performance at this time was not as unexpected as Zhou Tian expected. Now that the elf has received Zhou Tian's 'benefits', then the benefits are basically tied to Zhou Tian, and in the face of this situation, while he will try to use Zhou Tian's line to make profits, it is possible to estimate that this elf will also find a way to expand his influence accordingly.

The elf is also self-motivated, if the elf who cooperated with Zhou Tian really has the heart to climb up, then he will definitely not waste Zhou Tian's help to him.

If you have sugar in exchange for a lot of money, you can get the favor of the upper class and the support of the lower class, if you use the purchase of fruits and medicinal herbs to reach a relationship of interest with a group of elves, then it is not an electoral system, I believe that this elf will also be able to gain a greater voice in the elf empire.

Because of the reasons related to his own interests, the elf was very active at that time, and he had just reached an agreement with Zhou Tian, and he immediately rushed back to the elf empire. Then, not even the next day, the elf returned to Zhou Tian territory in a matter of hours and made a tentative deal with it.

In any case, the elf was still not very familiar with Zhou Tian, so the elf did not dare to fully believe Zhou Tian's promise. In the face of Zhou Tian's proposal, although the elf believed it, he still didn't know how much in his heart. Therefore, the elf of Zhou Tian's proposal would not refuse, but it was impossible for him to choose to believe him wholeheartedly because of Zhou Tian's words, and directly mobilize all his strength on Zhou Tian's proposal.

So naturally, since it is not certain whether Zhou Tian has that ability, then some tentative transactions will be necessary.

If Zhou Tian really had that ability, then no matter how many goods he brought over, Zhou Tian would be able to exchange those things for sugar at that time. And according to his ability, the elf can completely go from small to large, and make this kind of transaction bigger. And if Zhou Tian was just bragging, in fact, he didn't have that kind of ability, and for the elf at that time, his loss at that time would not be so great.

As a result, given the circumstances at the time, it was not surprising that the elf would behave like that. And Zhou Tian also considered the possibility of such a situation, so when the elf suddenly returned to his territory and brought a batch of fruits and medicinal herbs, Zhou Tian was not surprised at that time, and after putting away the things he brought, Zhou Tian also handed the other party a small stack of banknotes.

"This is ......" Looking at the banknote handed over by Zhou Tian, the elf directly showed a confused expression, obviously he did not know as much about Zhou Tian's territory as he did in the performance, at least for the particularity of Zhou Tian's territory currency, the elf did not understand it clearly at all.

Zhou Tian was not surprised by this, after all, every time the elf came and went in his territory, he was in a hurry to finish his errands, and he had an expression that something would definitely happen if he stayed in his territory. According to the performance of that elf, even if there are some special places in Zhou Tian's territory, the elf who has not stopped to watch at all is impossible to find out about it.

Therefore, after listening to the elf's words at that time, Zhou Tian was not surprised, and after laughing lightly, he directly explained to him: "I forgot that Your Excellency has not been in my territory, so I don't know my situation here, these are the currency of my territory, you can go to the supermarket to buy anything you want, and the edible sugar you need, whether it is white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar or fruit candy, you can buy it in the supermarket if you have money." After speaking, as if he was afraid that the elf would not believe it, Zhou Tian paused for a moment, and finally thought about it and continued: "You don't know much about my territory, so I'll take you to go shopping!" After speaking, Zhou Tian got up and led the elf towards the supermarket he opened.

The elf himself did not think that the transaction with Zhou Tian would involve the pile of 'pieces of paper' in front of him, and even if Zhou Tian said that it was currency, the elf who had not used banknotes would have a hard time believing his words. Not to mention the trouble of the 'formalities', that is, when he was used to using precious metals as currency, he suddenly asked the elf to use paper money, and he could not have adapted to it so quickly anyway.

And under the circumstances at that time, the elf himself was a little unable to accept Zhou Tian's arrangement. Fortunately, Zhou Tian made the decision to accompany him to the first transaction, so although he was still not very suitable for Zhou Tian's arrangement, but in the end, under Zhou Tian's appeasement, he still chose to endure.

Although it was a little troublesome, as long as Zhou Tian could finally prove his ability, how to trade was actually a trivial matter, and the most important thing for the elf at that time was always how to get enough edible sugar. (To be continued.) )
