Xia Duo has incarnated as elves in the projection plane many times, and his knowledge and understanding of elven society may be deeper than that of most elven spirits.

He knew very well that a small family like the Silver Leaf Family might be able to make a name for itself in a remote town, but when it came to huge interests, it would definitely be swallowed up by those high-ranking families.

If you want to find it, you have to find a family with a high-level mage in charge, or a powerful group with a high-level mage as a backer, at least it can withstand the smuggling business, or even not only spice smuggling, and more can be developed in the future.

But the question is, how could he, a senior arcanist, ask an elven high mage who is equivalent to a great arcanist, or even a few points stronger than a great arcanist, to bow down to his orders?

"Difficult! Difficult! Difficult! Xia Duo sighed again and again in his heart.

Looking at Lord Collins' expectant gaze, he was a little embarrassed to tell the truth.

At this moment, it's not just Lord Collins who needs his help, in fact, he also needs Lord Collins.

Chado wants to build an alliance of common interests to deal with future possibilities.

And Lord Collins may be a suitable person.

Before the senior arcanist, there was no alliance, only refuge, but now, Xia Duo is qualified to win over allies and form a small circle.

In fact, Lord Collins may not have had the intention of wooing him when he approached him.

A veteran arcanist who has accumulated years has a lot of hole cards in his hand, and he may not really need the Komanso elf channel on his side.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo paid more attention to this cooperation, as for the issue of agent qualifications, before the emergence of large-scale transactions, the Silver Leaf family was still useful.

Moreover, if the Lord of Collins wants to expand the production of spices, it is not possible to complete it in a short time, at least there needs to be a relatively complete expansion plan, otherwise blind expansion is only a waste of manpower and material resources.

With the gradual expansion of the scale of the transaction, whether it is through the Silver Leaf family to contact the more reliable Comanso upper family, or to find other ways, it is a matter of the future.

As the saying goes, "there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain", there are very few plans in the world that can be arranged in advance from beginning to end, and if you don't take the first step, there may never be a follow-up.

"Lord Collins, I'm interested in this collaboration, and if you can, I'd like to invite you to the South's Savile Territory after the snowmelt race, where the Chiefs of the Silver Leaf Clan's Oreps will provide us with more detailed information about the interior of Comanso."

"Yes."

Without the slightest hesitation, Collins immediately agreed: "Please also make an appointment at a time, when I will visit in person, and bring a detailed information about the variety of spices and the output." ”

Xia Duo recalled his recent itinerary and casually said a date: "It's about the fifteenth day of next month!" ”

The month is already at the end of the month, and two days later it will be the first day of the month of snowmelt (May), which is also the time when the snowmelt competition begins.

Considering that the snowmelt competition would last for several days, and after the race, Shado and Nia would spend two more days in Severton, and then they would have to go to Rayson to pick it up.

About fifteen days later, it is a relatively safe arrangement, the time is not so urgent, but it also shows the priority.

Collins agreed to the arrangement, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, "I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”

"Happy working together!"

……

It no longer seems to be a secret that the Northland Alliance is about to be formed, and in the next few days, there will be constant visits from Xia Duo's side, some of whom will talk about personal friendships, but more of them will be to discuss business cooperation.

The Saville Territory is strategically located on the key road from Nessreel to Comanso.

Generally speaking, it is also possible to reach Komanso from the core area of the Resistant color all the way east, from the northern border of the Kingdom of Akora to the east, and then south through the Dragon's Back Mountains, but-

Along the way, not to mention that the Koala Kingdom is closed to the rest of the country, there are a large number of orcs around, and the rest of the wild creatures are also countless, and more importantly, there are really dragons in the Dragonspine Mountains.

In this Drow War on Comanso's side, many dragons in the Dragonspine Mountains were controlled by Drow, not the kind of frenzied state affected by the dragon's mad lock, but a control similar to mind control, and it can also cast magic combat.

It is almost impossible for an ordinary caravan to pass safely through the Dragonspine Mountains.

It is safest to go south along the River Neser until the southern border of Savile Landing, then to the west and south to the city of Connefila, and to Comanso through the Tessa Bridge south of the city of Connefila.

Basically, the caravan only needs to hire one or two teams of ordinary guards, and if the conditions are better, hire one or two low-level mages, and it can safely complete the journey.

There were few casualties.

In the past, the Savile Territory has also served as a temporary resting point and supply transfer point for northern caravans to Connefila City.

And now that the Northland Alliance is about to be formed, it is foreseeable that in the future, trade between Nesserill and Comanso will become more frequent.

In fact, not only with Comanso, but also with Yerlan and Ilfarang, but the trade between Nethrel and these two elven kingdoms, especially Ilfarang, which is not bordering, needs to go to the dwarven port city of Askol.

It is foreseeable that the underground passage from Jennis to Askol will become more and more prosperous in the future, but with the emergence of a new god in Drow, it is difficult to say whether the underground passage will be as safe as in the past.

As for the maritime trade routes, there may also be a small outbreak.

However, the maritime trade route only has the advantage of a short time and a large volume of goods, and the disadvantage is that the maritime crisis is uncontrollable, even if you bring a high-level mage, once you encounter a large sea monster, you may not be able to please it.

What the future holds depends on how deeply the "alliance" of the Northland Alliance will cooperate, but judging from Comanso's abrupt change in attitude and almost compromise, the cooperation of this alliance may be unexpectedly deep.

……

Shado did not refuse all those who sought cooperation, but he did not discuss any specific cooperation as he did with Lord Collins.

After all, most of what these people want to do is import trade, and a few exports are precious metal ores, gem rough and other resource trade.

It is difficult for Xia Duo to get involved, and he is not willing to get involved, he actually doesn't agree with these trades in his heart, whether it is the introduction of high-premium goods or the loss of resources, in the long run, it is not a good thing.

Of course, he also knows very well that if Nessera wants to develop, it is inevitable that he will be cut by the advanced, as long as it can help the development.

The reason why he didn't refuse was just because there was no reason to refuse, after all, one party wanted to buy and the other party wanted to sell, so how could he interfere as an outsider.
