Chapter 206: Deep Sea Shark Silk, Everyone is happy
This question is also part of the plan.
Ji Chen smiled slightly: "If the surname she told me is not wrong, then I should have met a member of your royal family." β
After receiving a definite answer, Miligas became a little agitated.
This is an elf with royal blood!
The stronger the strength, the more difficult it is to give birth to offspring, which is a common characteristic of most powerful races.
Elves are the ones with the lowest fertility rate of all races.
And a thousand years ago, there was a civil strife within the elves, and some members of the royal family moved to other places to live incognito with some of their clansmen because of their disagreements.
This royal elf who has never met may be the elf who migrated out because of the civil strife, or the heir born to him.
Elves are already long, and it is not a problem for a strong and flexible Chitose.
Rao is elves have been so prosperous at this time, looking around for the whereabouts of the royal elves who left that year, but due to the scarcity of information remaining, time and other reasons, the search has little effect, and the members of the empire with royal blood at this time are only in double digits.
It would be a great credit to be able to bring back a member of the royal family who had been exiled from him!
You might even be received by the Empress herself!
He must not let go of this supreme glory.
"Your Excellency Ji Chen, what is the full name of that elf? This is a very important issue for us. β
"Name? It's called Erin. Apocalis. β
"Erin?" Miligas was slightly stunned, thinking about it, whether it is from his memory or the genealogy that has been handed down for two thousand years, there is no such name, is it really a newly born heir of the elven royal family?
However, a name alone is not enough to prove that there is indeed the existence of this royal blood elf.
But at this time, Ji Chen stretched out his right hand wearing the Void Ring, "This is Erin. A gift from Apocaris. β
As soon as he saw the Void Ring, Miligas's gaze was firmly fixed on it.
The heart was beating violently again.
There's nothing wrong with that!
It carries an extremely noble elf imprint, and only an extremely powerful elf can leave such a strong aura on an item.
At this time, he had already determined seven or eight points in his heart.
The name is Eileen. The elf of Apokalis is not a royal bloodline that left in the civil strife that year, but also a descendant of a royal bloodline!
Ji Chen naturally didn't know what this Ambassador Miligas was thinking, if he knew, he would definitely smile.
Eileen is a thousand-year-old elf, or a young elven royal descendant.
is clearly an elf old witch who has lived for at least thousands of years, at least dozens of generations taller than you.
However, looking at Miligas's reaction, Erin really did not return to the elven empire as he guessed, otherwise this elven ambassador would not have been so excited.
Turning the subject, Miligas asked about the most important thing.
"Your Excellency, then you know that this is called Erin. Where are the spirits of Apocalis now? β
"At that time, I just sent someone to send it to the Northern Continent, and I didn't go with it."
Hearing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Miligas's face, but he continued with some reluctance.
"Did she say where she was going? Or did you reveal what you were going to do? β
She didn't say much, she just said that she wanted to see what the elves were like now, and then she would also go to see if some of her friends were still there.
"Other than these, there is no information left...", Ji Chen shrugged his shoulders, "As for when she will go back, I don't know." β
"Well, there's no way around it." Miligas finally gave up, and smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry to let Your Excellency Ji Chen see me like this, a new royal family member means too much to us." β
"If you see her again, or if you have any information about her, please let us know and we will reward you."
"Of course you can...", Ji Chen snorted and changed the topic, "This time I came, in addition to the previous business, there is also a special product of the crown of the ocean that I want the ambassador to see if you are interested." β
"A deep-sea treasure that is only produced in the middle of the earth, and is incomparably precious."
"Legend has it that in ancient times, this treasure was only owned by the Emperor of the Sea, and if someone else kept it privately, if it was discovered, it would be ordered to be beheaded and confiscated in the treasury."
"Therefore only the noblest and strongest can possess it."
Hearing Ji Chen say this, Miligas felt a little curious in his heart, as the ambassador of the Silver Moon Dynasty to the Maple Forest Principality, he was originally an elven nobleman, and his hundreds of years of experience gave him a broad insight, what rare things had not been seen?
A marine gem?
This kind of noise that seemed more like a better business was put on an ordinary businessman, and he would have scoffed at it.
But it was Ji Chen who said this, and from this brief contact, he also realized that Ji Chen was not the kind of person who exaggerated.
Thinking of this, Miligas had a little interest on his face, "Your Excellency Ji Chen, I don't know what this so-called sea treasure is?" But what have we never seen when we elves collect the treasures of the world? β
"The treasures collected in the Imperial Capital Museum can be said to be the largest in number and of the highest quality in the world, and in this regard, our elves can be described as second to none."
"Ordinary things, we don't buy them easily."
In this regard, Ji Chen was full of confidence, "Your Excellency, I promise to make you satisfied." β
Then he motioned to Alice, who nodded insightfully and walked out of the hall to the carriage to fetch the silk that had been prepared.
Although Ji Chen could put Jiao Xuan in his backpack and take it out directly, if he took it out like this, it would be a little sudden and uncompulsive.
If you want to reflect the preciousness of a thing, the way it is packaged and presented accounts for a large extent.
Soon, in the eyes of everyone, Alice walked in again, holding a long wooden box in her hand, the wooden box is made of top quality jungle wood core, naturally exuding a burst of fragrance, the body of the box is carved with a variety of sea creatures, lifelike, the wooden box is inlaid with gems and jade everywhere, the lock is decorated with two ivory pearls, not to mention what is inside, but with this box, you can feel that the things contained in it must be extraordinary, or ... Not cheap.
Seeing this delicate wooden box, Miligas's attention was attracted, and his face became more and more interested, and he became more and more curious about what was inside.
Seeing this, Ji Chen smiled slightly.
This specially made wooden box, the gems, jade, and pearls inlaid on it alone are worth 20,000 or 30,000 gold coins, plus the wood and craftsmanship used to make it, no 30,000 gold coins cannot be taken.
This time, in order to achieve the intended effect, he activated the money ability.
A long wooden box was placed on the table, and even the military attachΓ©, who had always looked resolute and unsmiling, looked at him slightly, the elves were very rich, but they would not put gold coins on making a wooden box.
They have a long history, an intelligent race with high-class tastes, and are not nouveau riche.
Under the slightly curious gaze of the two elves, Ji Chen gently unbuckled the lock and opened the wooden box.
Seeing the contents of the wooden box, Miligas subconsciously said.
"A horse... White yarn? β
In the wooden box, there is a pure white and flawless silk, at a glance, it looks like a cloud trapped in the box.
Soft, light, pure.
Miligas, who claimed to be well-informed, couldn't help but marvel at this time, and subconsciously wanted to get closer, wanting to feel the softness of the cloud with his hands.
But he was stopped by Ji Chen, and he said with a rather serious face: "Your Excellency, your Excellency, touching it may pollute this horse." β
As if waking up a person in a dream, Miligas nodded hurriedly, and his expression became serious, "Bright, please come to my room and bring me those ice silk gloves." β
Military AttachΓ© Brett nodded, walked out briskly, and soon returned with a pair of white silk gloves in his hand.
Miligas washed his hands as if to wash them from all the dirt, then carefully wiped his hands with a valuable gold silk handkerchief, and only began to put on the white silk gloves when there was no trace of water stains.
"These ice silk gloves are made of silk spit out by the seventh-order domesticated beast Glacier Silver Silkworm, which naturally has the property of repelling filth and cleaning hands, so you don't need to worry about polluting treasures after wearing it."
"Any treasure is worth 100 per cent care, and it would be a great pity if it was damaged by the owner's carelessness."
"But rest assured, Your Excellency, I will be careful not to cause a trace of pollution to it, please allow me to touch it."
Miligas explained with a serious look on his face as he put on it.
Ji Chen: "......"
Although this thing was meant for you.
But while you explained so seriously, you accidentally revealed Tuhao's side, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
At the beginning, Ji Chen had some tricks in his heart, similar to "Oh, I am such a precious thing, don't you break it", so he deliberately said that, in fact, Jiao Xuan naturally has the ability to repel dirt, so it will not be polluted by a touch of his hand.
Although I don't know what the Glacier Silver Silkworm is, it can be a seventh-order, and it is probably not an ordinary creature.
Well, this wave of pretending to be forced was not a success and was shown off by the other party.
"Feel free to do so."
After getting Ji Chen's consent, Miligas carefully touched it, feeling as soft as a cloud, silkier than milk, holding the soft white yarn in his hand, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
At this moment, he finally fully believed that this was a treasure from the deep sea.
Just by touching it, I felt a cool feeling that only belonged to the ocean, and I could even smell the smell of seawater faintly.
In the past hundreds of years, he has seen countless rare treasures, but none of them can compare to this white veil.
If it could be made into clothing, no elf would refuse.
And after a while, it will be Her Majesty's birthday, and then the elven nobles and ambassadors will rush back to present gifts to Your Majesty, and if he can offer this white veil as a gift, he may be able to show off in front of the elves, and even get His Majesty's commendation.
Thinking of this, Miligas couldn't help but get excited, and it took a while to sigh and press it down, and carefully put the white yarn back into the wooden box.
Raised asked.
"Your Excellency, what is the name of this white yarn?"
"The deep sea is only a treasure produced in the endless sea."
"The Deep Sea," Miligas muttered, his eyes burning, "I wonder how much this specialty can produce from the crown of the sea?" β
The point is that this answer determines the maximum value of Jiaoxuan.
Ji Chen had some regret on his face, shook his head and said.
"Because the materials needed to make deep-sea silk are too scarce, and only five top-notch silk horses have been woven for hundreds of years."
"From the current point of view, only a few of them can be replaced with lower materials, so the quality will be a little lower than these five horses, but it can produce about 60 horses per month."
Hearing this, Miligas was not surprised.
Only five horses have been woven in the past hundred years, so doesn't that show the preciousness of this deep-sea silk?
When the time comes, it will be presented to Her Majesty the Empress, which is another indication of the preciousness of the things she offers.
This is not only very precious, but also has a certain historical value!
"Your Excellency, I wonder if the elves are willing to buy the second-level Deep Sea Silk?"
"Of course I do, Genie welcomes any supplier with a good product." Miligas said with a smile on his face, "I wonder how much that kind of second-level deep-sea silk is priced?" β
Ji Chen groaned for a moment and tentatively stretched out four fingers.
Miligas looked at it, "Oh? 400,000 gold coins? Yes, deal! β
Ji Chen was stunned.
Actually, he meant 40,000 gold coins per horse.
This is a tenfold increase in the number of them!?
Looking at Miligas's face, "Brother, you are really righteous, such a precious thing is sold so cheaply", Ji Chen was a little speechless.
It seems that there are still some differences between the thinking of local tyrants and normal people.
Obviously, for an elf with deep pockets, 400,000 gold coins to buy a piece of cloth is not a big deal, and if you bid low, I still think it is not precious enough, not good enough, so I won't buy it.
Ji Chen suffered a "boring loss" like this, and he almost died of happiness in his heart.
In the end, it was decided that each second-level silk exchange would be exchanged for 3,000 units of third-order rare resources such as crystals, mythril, and adamantite gold.
"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"
"Your Excellency Ji Chen, you are really a good friend of the elves, you are willing to sell such a treasure at such a low price." Miligas said gratefully.
"Ah, it's nothing, I hope the friendship between the crown of the ocean and the elves lasts!" Ji Chen held back a smile and raised the wine glass with the wine on the table.
"Hahaha, of course, may our friendship last forever." Miligas smiled and picked up his glasses and drank them all.
This wave is a win-win situation, and everyone is happy!
