After the main meal, Shado did not entertain Aureps with fruit, but with "Bonu original leaves" from Aureps' own.

After three cups and two lamps, Xia Duo finally got to the point, he pinched the teacup with three fingers, slowly rotated in front of his eyes, but his eyes fell on the elf opposite through the teacup:

"Patriarch Aureps, although this Bonu original leaf is a good tea, there are only these, which is a pity!"

Orepus's face was slightly stunned, he didn't know if Lord Xia Duo wanted more tea, or something else, but no matter which one was for him, it was a huge risk, so he could only pretend not to understand, and said vaguely:

"The Bonu leaf is indeed very good, but even in Comanso, not all elves can drink it. Speaking of which, this kind of tea is also related to you, Lord of Chateau! ”

"Oh?"

Although he knew that the other party was changing the topic, Xia Duo was still attracted by the "related to him" in the mouth of Oreps, so he took the opportunity to ask, "Patriarch Oreps, can you tell me in detail?" ”

"Absolutely!"

Oreps put down the teacup and explained seriously, "Speaking of tea, in fact, elves have long had the habit of drinking tea, and the source has long been unverifiable, but this Bonu tea has only become popular in the past 10,000 years. ”

At this point, Oripston paused, and continued: "The history of the word 'Bonu' is very old, and its original meaning has long been lost, and now it is only used to refer specifically to 'Bonu tea'. ”

"Bonu? Orient? ”

The various Elvish words in Chardo's mind flew up and down, colliding violently, and finally a long list of characters came out, and he quickly pronounced in an intonation that was different from modern Elvish: "bo-susi-art-enus!" ”

It was repeated several times until it was fully translated into modern Elvish.

Hearing this, Oreps' eyes immediately widened, and his long ears twitched, obviously very surprised, "Lord Shado, I didn't expect you to be proficient in ancient elven language?" ”

And what surprised him even more was that just now he actually understood the origin and meaning of the word "Bonu"!

Looking at Oreps's surprised and excited appearance, Xia Duo himself was not excited, he knew that he was just taking advantage of the ancient elven kingdom that had been projected, in fact, he did not have much research on elven language.

It's just that you can speak and write.

The so-called "Bonu" is actually a modern abbreviation of the phrase "guests from the East in the early morning" in the language of the ancient elven kingdom of Mayerita. (There is only one set of mainstream Elf scripts, but there are differences in pronunciation in different countries, and there are also differences in ancient and modern times)

He wouldn't have thought of it if he hadn't known the Mai Yerita language, and if it hadn't been for Oripus telling him that the Bonu tea came from the Orientals.

In fact, his interpretation is not necessarily the real historical origin, but it is just enough to be satisfied in this situation.

And since "Bonu" is interpreted as "a guest from the East in the early morning", it is a matter of course that no matter whether the "Bonu tea originated from the Oriental" mentioned by Oreps is a commercial tout or a real thing, it is natural for Xia Duo, the "Oriental", to ask about the seeds of the Bonu tea tree, or even search directly.

So, Xia Duo didn't go around in circles, and went straight to the point, "Patriarch Oreps, I like this kind of Bonu tea from my hometown very much, uh - I miss it very much, cough - I hope that Patriarch Orips can collect a few Bonu tea trees for me." ”

“……”

Oreps was a little dumbfounded, spared a big circle, and finally wrapped himself in, "Lord Saddo, this-"

"Patriarch Orips, is this difficult?" Xia Duo pretended not to know and said casually.

Of course it's difficult!

Not to mention that the territory of Comanso is now suffering from the Drow War, even if it is not, the outflow of Bonu tea trees is an extremely serious sin, once exposed, the Silver Leaf family will not say that they will return to Comanso, and it is a question whether they can live or not!

It's almost just that these words Oreps didn't say it directly, he looked left and right, wanting to perfunctory the past, but Xia Duo had already set his eyes on this piece, how could he let him pass easily.

However, Xia Duo also knew that it was somewhat difficult for a strong man to directly instigate others to betray him in this way, so he provided a convenient way for Oreps, "Patriarch Aureps, do you say that those elves who come to the territory of Nasedo will carry tea tree seeds with them, this is already outside the borders of Comanso, as long as it is secretive enough, how can you know it in the country?" ”

Detection spells are not omnipotent, there are a lot of precautions, not to mention, there may not be elves specifically staring at this piece, otherwise, it would not be so easy to let a large number of elves into Nesseril, and the controlled items would have been eliminated in advance.

When Oreps heard this, he felt that there was some truth, and the risk would be greatly reduced by obtaining it through other elves, but he still hesitated, "It's not good-"

"What's wrong? It's just a normal transaction, and it's not a forced buying and selling. In addition, Patriarch Orepus also knows that I like to study ancient elven society, ancient elven language, ancient books, ancient magic weapons, etc., and ask Patriarch Orepus to pay attention to it for me. ”

"Hmm-"

Orepus was a little squirming at first, but when he heard about the ancient books and ancient magic weapons, he immediately understood Xia Duo's intentions, and at the same time, a trace of greed ignited in his heart.

The so-called "ancient books, ancient magic weapons" is just a human statement, in the concept of elves, this can actually be changed to another name - "inheritance of classics, heirloom treasures"!

Orepus knew that the inheritance of the Silver Leaf family was shallow, and if there was no special opportunity, the family would not be able to give birth to even a high-level mage in 10,000 years.

And now, maybe it's a special opportunity!

As far as he knew clearly, the Moon Xilan family, who also came to Savile Town, had a supreme inheritance, at least part of it, and they had a deeper heritage than the Silver Leaf family with the name of "Moon".

"The Great Age of Genes"

And now it happens to be the time when families like Yue Xilan are at their weakest, and they don't even have an elite mage, but the Silver Leaf family does.

If you can "trade" some heritage from them, the Silver Leaf family may have greater development in the future.

However, Orepus was not blinded by the illusion of the family's growth, he knew very well the risks involved, who knew if those families would have a powerful heirloom or two in their hands!

If there is a peaceful deal, it is better to trade peacefully. If he can't, he who has been aroused by his desire is also willing to share the probability of the rise of the family.

It's just that you have to be careful and careful.

Thinking of this, Orepus's eyes looking at Xia Duo also became extremely complicated, if there was no Xia Duo Lord, it was just what he thought of, and only his own family knew about it, how good it would be!

It's a pity -

"Lord Xiaduo, I am willing to find you Bonu tea seeds, but I also hope that Lord Xiaduo can provide some convenience."

"Good!"

Xia Duo stroked his hand and stood up, and then one person and one elf moved to the study, continuing to discuss the specific details of the transaction.
