Ji Chen closed his eyes, and after pondering for a long time, he slowly opened the stars that seemed to be able to see the night sky, and said slowly.

"In that case, then the crown of the ocean is willing to help you, but please don't forget what has been said now."

Hearing this, Monica's face showed a look of joy, and her expression was firm, "Please rest assured Ji Chen, the Valencia family will definitely keep its promise, otherwise it will be spurned by the gods!" ”

Ji Chen nodded, as a world where gods had existed, the weight of this oath was not insignificant, and he was a little relieved in his heart.

Go on.

"You fled into the Storm Sea not long ago, and there may still be enemy pursuers outside, so it's safer for you to stay in the Crescent Islands these days and wait until the turmoil has subsided."

"There are many unique and rare landscapes on the Crescent Islands, except for some areas that are forbidden to enter, you can visit and watch the rest of the places at will, and I will have a guide for you."

Although the matter was quite urgent, Monica also knew that if she left rashly at this time, it would be easier to be targeted by the pursuers again, so she should not be in a hurry, and when she heard Ji Chen's invitation, she nodded obediently.

"Your Excellency, you are right, in order to be able to return safely, and in order not to cause you trouble, I know what to do, please rest assured."

After saying that, Monica winked playfully, looking like she understood everything.

Seeing this, Ji Chen looked at her with a little satisfaction and appreciation in his eyes.

He likes to talk to smart people, and he doesn't have to explain too much, but he makes everything clear in a few words.

is worthy of being the daughter of the Grand Duke, and this consciousness and intelligence are enough to match her identity.

At this time, Monica asked, "Your Excellency Ji Chen, who is our guide these days?" Could it be the girl just now? ”

As she spoke, she looked left and right, and Anina had just brought her in and disappeared.

"It's not Anina, she has something to deal with these days." Ji Chen shook his head, and his voice was slightly louder, "Alice." ”

"I'm here."

Alice stepped out of a small door next to the hall, alongside Monica.

"It's up to you to take your guests around the island for a few days."

"I see." Alice stroked her chest and saluted.

Ji Chen nodded, looked at Monica and said, "You have encountered a lot of things today, and you should already feel tired, so let Alice take you to the guest room to rest by the way." ”

"Your bodyguard, I'll let the others take them to a private room to rest, don't worry."

Hearing this, Monica hurriedly responded: "Okay, thank you very much for your hospitality. ”

Then she made a lady's curtsy of aristocratic etiquette before following Alice away.

Looking at Alice and Monica's figures disappearing behind the door, Ji Chen's figure collapsed suddenly, and he leaned softly on the back of the chair.

Then I thought about it, and asked people to call Ben Boer in.

He commanded with a serious expression.

"In the past few days, the alert level of the crown of the sea has been raised, and the vigilance and patrol area has been expanded beyond the storm area."

"In particular, pay attention to whether there are enemy ships approaching outside, and report it as soon as you find it."

"Be careful, outside patrols and guards must not reveal any traces, everything is under the sponge."

Seeing the serious look on his face, Ben Bo Erba also realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately saluted back.

"Yes, my lord."

With an order, the defense of the Crescent Islands instantly increased a lot.

Several patrols of Naga berserkers, dragonblood fishmen, and lobster knights make their way through the storm to patrol beyond the seas.

……

Monica followed Alice's side, looking at her beautiful long silky silver hair like a waterfall, perfect enough to make a woman also feel excited, and her blown-out skin made her envious.

Especially the two blue fins on the top of the ears made her very curious.

Could it be that this girl named Alice is not human? Or belong to a certain sea tribe?

She wanted to ask out loud, but when she saw that Alice's face was like an iceberg, revealing a coldness that rejected people thousands of miles away, her heart beat again.

After thinking for a moment, she mustered up her courage, and with a smile on her face that was enough to melt the ice and snow, she followed, walking side by side.

"Sister, your name is Alice? That's a nice name. ”

"Not only is the name good, but the people are also very beautiful, and the good skin makes me a little jealous."

"Sister, your hair reminds me of the Long River Waterfall outside the city of Trins, which is very beautiful..."

Alice just looked at her sideways, without any expression on her face, and no matter how Monica talked, she didn't mean to pay any attention.

In her eyes, there is no one other than adults who deserves her attention.

is relatively indifferent to his colleagues, let alone this strange outsider, even the so-called daughter of the Grand Duke.

Taking her to find a room is just the master's task.

Monica, who had said good things all the way, couldn't help but be depressed when she saw that Alice was still indifferent.

I began to wonder if the affinity and communication skills I had cultivated since I was a child were fake.

Soon, the two of them came to the door of a room one after the other.

Alice opened the door and signaled that it was her room.

The room was spacious, with a carpet of fur of some kind of beast on the floor, just the right amount of decoration all around, and a vague aroma in the air.

Floor-to-ceiling windows with balconies offer views of towering mountain peaks, cascading waterfalls, and lush jungle stretches in the distance.

From another window, you can see the beach at the end of the stone square and the endless sea.

It was midday, and the sunlight cast a few regular flickers of light through the glass, and the brilliant light dispelled the dimness of the castle.

Such a view immediately attracted Monica's attention, and the depression in her heart instantly dissipated.

"Wow, this room is fantastic too! Thank you sister! ”

Monica walked briskly to the window, looked out and exclaimed, looking back with joy and thanks.

Alice just nodded and said, "When it's time for dinner, someone will bring you food." ”

"Rest well tonight, I'll come to you tomorrow morning."

I don't know if I've been following Ji Chen for a long time, Alice's voice has changed from simple indifference at the beginning to condescending indifference.

The words often contained a tone that could not be refused, like a queen's momentum, which made Monica suddenly shocked, and subconsciously nodded: "I know." ”

Hearing this, Alice said nothing more and turned to leave.

Looking at her departing tall back, Monica's face suddenly turned red, her heart jumped, and she clutched her chest and muttered, "It's so domineering..."

Ji Chen naturally didn't know that this young female guest had some strange thoughts about his subordinates.

At this time, he was about to go to inspect the territory, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

Soon, a guard came in and reported.

"Lord Raymond, they're back."

Hearing this, Ji Chen frowned, and thought about it, it had been almost half a month since Raymond set off that day, and it was just right to come back now.

"Where are they now?"

"Mistress Raymond and Mistress Spallo are in the harbor right now."

"Let them come here to see me... Forget it, I'll go for myself. Ji Chen shook his head, got up and walked out of the lord's mansion and came to the port.

At a glance, I saw four merchant ships and warships with a very low draft and unloading.

Raymond's chubby figure stood very conspicuously on the dock.

As if sensing it, he suddenly turned his head, and when he saw Ji Chen, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the two little short legs ran over as if they were equipped with motors.

He waved his hand and shouted loudly as he ran.

"Adult !!"

Seeing his fat mountain-like body rushing over, Ji Chen frowned, almost trying to manipulate the sea water to knock him away.

But fortunately, Raymond still knew how many pounds and taels he had, and stopped the car in time in front of him.

Said excitedly.

"My lord! I am back! ”

Looking at Raymond, who had become much more vicissitudes than before he set off, Ji Chen sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work this time."

"It's not hard at all!" Raymond chuckled, "Your Excellency, you must not have imagined what happened to me in the Northern Continent!" ”

"We're making a lot of money this time!"

Looking at the excitement on his face, Ji Chen couldn't help but be curious.

What is it that makes this old businessman so excited?

"After receiving your order to go to sea, the road to the Northern Continent has been calm, except for a few small pirate ships that do not have long eyes, there is no danger."

"As soon as I arrived at the port in the northern continent, I immediately approached a buyer to sell all the products on our ship, and it was very smooth at first, and we quickly sold a quarter of the goods."

"But suddenly, for some unknown reason, there was a sudden conflict and friction in several countries in the northern continent, which caused the transportation of our products sold inland to be blocked, and there were many fewer buyers all of a sudden."

Speaking of this, Raymond's face showed a little excitement, "Just when I thought it was going to be unsalable, suddenly a buyer came to the door and directly packaged and bought all our remaining products!" ”

"You can't imagine who that buyer is!"

Seeing that this fat man suddenly stopped talking, looking like a sellout, Ji Chen scolded with a smile: "Don't hurry up and say it, be careful that I throw you into the sea!" ”

Seeing this, Raymond smiled hesitantly, and whispered in Ji Chen's ear: "The buyer is an elf clan!" ”

Elves?

Ji Chen was a little surprised.

This elf race is not an elf recruited by the player, but an aboriginal elf in this world.

Similar to the fantasy worldview, the elves are a race with a strong reputation and strength.

In addition to their long lifespan, the dual cultivation of the physical law is also their signature feature, and the strength of every adult elf is at least above the fourth order.

But how could the elves come to the door on their own initiative?

As if seeing his doubts, Raymond continued: "Your Excellency may know that the archery skills of the elves are particularly powerful, and almost every elven is good at archery, and the archery skills are the best in the world. ”

"So they have a big demand for the materials used to make bows."

Speaking of which, Ji Chen had already guessed a little.

Raymond said excitedly, "Those elves say that the quality of our wood is exceptionally good, especially suitable for making bows and arrows, and it is easier to enchant than other woods. ”

"They also said that if you agree, they are willing to establish a long-term supply channel with us, and they will buy as much as we have!"

"And the price given is 100% higher than the one on the market, which can be settled with gold coins or other rare resources!"

Hiss~

So magnanimous?

100% acquisition at a direct premium?

When did the elves become so tyrants!?

What Ji Chen didn't know was that unlike other fantasy worldviews, in this world, the elven race was one of the most powerful races.

In other worlds, the elves are always hidden, living and working in peace and contentment, and are squeezed into living space.

In this world, the elves have very close contacts with foreign countries, and they have also established a powerful elven kingdom, occupying a very vast land by force.

In other worlds, elves wear very few clothes, and they are soft and weak, captured by the slave team, and sold outside as RBQ.

In this world, the elves kick the human country, punch the orcs, punch an enemy, and use enchantment techniques to teach you how to be a man.

In other worlds, elves have powerful technology but don't use it, and they are proud of their poverty.

In this world, with their extremely superb enchantment technology, alchemy technology, forging technology and planting technology, supplemented by the rich resources in the country, they can continuously produce all kinds of ordnance and equipment, alchemy products, and high-grade agricultural products to be exported to various places, and then harvest a huge amount of wealth and resources.

Life is extremely extravagant and rich, eating is delicacies from the mountains and seas, drinking is fine wine and wine, and traveling is a gorgeous car, quite like a kind of oil country on the blue star.

Therefore, the elves can be described as rich and flowing, and they are extremely generous.

Hearing that the elf said that it could be purchased at double the price in the market, Ji Chen was even a little suspicious.

Asked repeatedly, "Did the elves really say that?" You didn't lie to me? ”

"How dare I lie to you, my lord!" Raymond instantly became anxious, and then, as if he remembered something, he took out an emerald green wooden card from his bag and handed it over, "This is given to me by those elves, saying that as long as you show this wooden card in any elf embassy, you will be treated as a distinguished guest!" ”

Ji Chen took the wooden card and stared at it.

The wooden plaque is about the size of half a palm, and it is covered with strange patterns, which exude a lot of energy, and there is an elven text in the center.

【Elven Messenger】

[Description]: A wooden plaque with special significance, and if you take it to any elf embassy, you will be treated as a VIP

[As the saying goes, a rich woman can relieve her sorrows, if she can catch the car of the elves, she will not have to worry about money for the rest of her life]

Is it true?

Crown of the Sea, this is a tie-up with the elves?
