Some people say that the source of the St. Francis River is in the territory of the elves, which is obviously an uninformed statement. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAnyone who has been to Elven Territory will be able to point out the absurdity of this statement - Elven Territory is almost always plains, forests, and lakes, and no river would have its source there.

In fact, no one knows where the source of this river is, maybe it is in the land of dragons, or maybe it flows all the way down from heaven.

This mysterious river flows from south to north through the Plain of Miracles, as if on a self-destructive mission to the Wall of Despair, but it stops for a moment in a large area south of St. Petersburg and north of the city of Santiago.

That's right, here, is the largest lake in the entire Miracle Plains, Cold Spring Lake.

Compared to this group of lakes that occupy nearly one-fifth of the Miracle Plains, the Blue Water Lake in the jurisdiction of the Fire Sacred Temple is simply a small pond.

Now, Donner is standing on the north shore of Lake Cold Springs, looking out at the endless, turquoise lake. If it weren't for the salty smell of the seaside in the air, Donner would almost subconsciously think of the lake as the sea.

It's sparsely populated, but it's only half a day's walk from St. Petersburg, and it's not deserted.

"Young Master John......" The voice of the lame old man Grover came from afar: "You can stop here?"

Donner looked in the direction of the voice, and the old craftsman with inconvenient legs was standing in the bow of the boat, and dozens of slender men had dragged the strange ship to the place he had just designated.

"Look if the lake is deep enough, don't run aground...... Donner replied as he walked toward Grover.

"No problem! the water is very deep!" replied Grover aloud.

It wasn't long before Donner came to the side of the boat, "Then here it is." He nodded.

Grover answered, beckoned the slendermen to untie the towstrings, and paid them again.

The men of Botherne, who were almost peeled by the late summer sun, each dragged the freshly arrived azurite, and in a satisfied and honest laugh, they were scattered by Grover. In the retreating crowd, there were still a few old and thin kobolds.

"Grover, when will the craftsmen arrive?" asked Donner.

"Oh young master, I'm worried that the materials, tools, and people are on the boat, and the draft is too deep, and it will run aground when towing along the coast......" Grover quickly explained.

"I know, you're very thoughtful......" Donner waved his hand, "I just asked you when they'll arrive?"

Grover thought for a moment, "I'll be there tonight at the latest." ”

"Very well, remember what I told you, I'd rather spend more money and do a good job. Donner said as he threw a bag of orange crystals into Grover's arms—Grover's legs and feet were inconvenient, and there was no market here, so it would be much better to give him a bag of orange crystals than an amethyst.

"Young Master...... That's too much......" Grover was a little flustered.

"You're not alone. ”

"But...... But I did as you commanded, and only the best craftsmen remained......" Grover explained.

"I know, you don't need to say any more, since you are the best craftsman, you should be paid the best. Donner smiled, this money was nothing to him, but it could guarantee that all the craftsmen would pay 100 percent.

Only then did Grover accept the magic crystal with a shudder, thought about it and said, "Young Master...... Can I ask you for one thing?"

"What's the matter?" asked Donner.

"You, can you give an order to build a bridge without the names of the dead people engraved on the bridge?" Grover said nervously.

"Why do you want to ask for this?" said Donner, frowning slightly.

"Yes, it's Ada...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid he's going to do something stupid......" Grover became even more nervous when he saw Donner's unhappy expression.

"Ada......" Donner was slightly stunned, and immediately figured out what Grover meant: "You mean, Ada is willing to die in order to engrave his name on the bridge?"

"Last time Anderson and I persuaded him, but, but he's a ...... person."

"Hmm...... I know. Donner nodded, thoughtful.

......

Donner was in no hurry to leave, but sat on the shore of the lake for a while.

After waiting for about half an hour, Ellie's figure appeared beside him.

"See that ship?" asked Donner.

"Well......" Probably for fear that some idlers would see it, Avery didn't grovel.

"In about two months, it will be finished, and when the time comes, you can come alone and paint all the cabins with a layer of Mithril, will you?" asked Donner.

Mithril is very expensive in Middle-earth, but in the Magic Continent, it is only one of the more expensive magic materials, and as long as you paint a thin layer in the cabin, it will only cost dozens of amethysts.

"Will make ......" Ellie nodded, not asking Donner why he did it.

"How's it going about what I told you before?"

"My father is already collecting cores, there should be dozens, and I've already found several groups of people for the paintings, so there will be no problem. Avery replied.

"Tell me, how do you do that?" Donner turned his head to look at Alley, it was not easy for Alley's own fortune to ensure that the price of these paintings was inflated.

"I asked a few friends to help raise the price, and I asked them to preach the value of these paintings, not only from the Spring Sacred Courtyard, but also from the Earth Sacred Courtyard and the Fire Sacred Courtyard. Avery replied.

Donner shook his head slightly, it seemed that Avery didn't have any talent for commercial hype.

"I just took a picture of "The Orchid Tree" a few days ago, and the transaction price is 33 amethyst, you go to a friend who has a relatively secret relationship with you, and ask him to find the buyer and buy his painting for 100 amethyst. After Downer finished speaking, he explained, "You have to make them feel profitable to have an effect." ”

"I see......," Ellie nodded.

"There's a potions plantation in the Sacred House of Spring?" Donner asked again.

"Yes, it's under our family's control. ”

"Very good," Donner pulled a note from his bosom and handed it to Ellie, "I need the seeds of these fifteen herbs...... Do it covertly and don't let anyone know. ”

Avery took the note, glanced at it, and slipped it into his arms.

A few minutes later, Avery walked away from the shore on his own.

Donner sat for a while before leaving.

In the evening, sure enough, several trailers came, and it was a dozen craftsmen.

By the time they had all gotten into the cabin with their tools, the strange ship had a deeper draft, and the seemingly vestigial fins and strange stern of the ship sank under the water.

At this time, the ship looked no different from other ordinary ships, except that it was more elongated.
