453. Situation

The Silver Moon Elf civilian personnel who stayed on the side of the military department were very well-informed, and Daisy, the Silver Moon Elf, had a more cheerful personality, and seeing Roy's gentle personality, he couldn't help but ask Roy:

"Boss Roy, I heard that you are still preparing to trade magic herbs in Padstow City?"

There must have been some news reaching the military department, Roy thought to himself.

He nodded and said to Daisy, "Hmm! There is such a thought. ”

Daisy sat down in her chair, her hands crossed and her elbows gracefully propped up on the armrests, and said to Roy with some tact:

"Did you know that...... Regarding Partington's magical herb trade, in recent years, the fourth foreign trade group of the logistics department of the Silver Pegasus Legion has been in charge, and you run the magical herb trading house...... Probably affect the interests of the clan? ”

She was worried that Roy didn't know about it, and that if the Legion higher-ups knew about it, she would probably be punished.

Roy could see that the head of Berkeley was very popular with the second material transport group, and he got along well with Daisy and Kelly, otherwise Miss Daisy would never have said such a kind reminder......

The head of Berkeley knew something about Roy, but he stood aside and didn't explain it to Roy.

Roy could only speak: "Regarding the magic herb trade, I submitted an application to Earl Swinburn, and I obtained the permission to trade a few months ago, and I only deal in low-level magic herbs, so the legion's high-level magic herb trade will not be affected. ”

Daisy and Kelly looked at each other again, and they even had some stars twinkling in their eyes when they looked at Roy, apparently very interested in him.

"Permission to trade personally issued by the Earl of Swinburn?"

Daisy asks in surprise if she can confirm the truth of the rumor that Roy is the Earl of Swinburn'.

Kelly on the side also couldn't sit still, and hurriedly leaned over and whispered to Roy: "Recently, there are still some rumors about you here in the military department, mainly accusing you of reselling the magic metal in the mine without permission, which has damaged the interests of the military department. ”

Roy didn't expect a lot of things about himself, and the Silver Pegasus Army in Padstow City was already full of rumors.

He didn't want to defend himself, so he let them say it.

Seeing the anticipation on the faces of the two Silver Moon Elf Misses, Roy had no choice but to say: "This matter is also authorized by the Earl of Swinburn, when I was running these mines, the Earl of Swinburne agreed that half of the output of the mine will be handed over to the Silver Pegasus Legion, and the other half of the output can be used by me at will, mainly to maintain the normal operation and sustainable development of the mine......

It's not some ulterior secret.

"I can testify to this, because I personally handed over this letter to Roy." The head of Berkeley chimed in.

The two Silver Moon Elf Ladies never thought that Earl Swinburne would give Roy so much preferential treatment......

"We also heard that you have nearly 10,000 half-blood elf warriors in the Pajisto Plateau, but the military department has only paid for three batches of armaments in the past six months." Miss Kelly continued to Roy.

The head of the Berkeley regiment did not know about this......

"What's going on? Roy. The head of Berkeley whispered to Kelly.

Kelly only explained in a whisper: "Due to the inconvenience of transportation, the materials transported from the city of Padesto to the Pajisto Plateau can only be stranded in the warehouse here for a long time, and our records show that only three batches of armaments and materials were taken away by the caravan, and the destination was the Pajisto Plateau. ”

Having said this, the head of the Berkeley regiment immediately found the crux of the matter, and he turned to Roy and said:

"Did Chief Lucius misunderstand you?"

"Uh...... There are still some. Roy rubbed his forehead......

Roy suddenly felt that this matter was a little unexplainable.

Seeing that Roy was a little distressed, the head of Berkeley hurriedly pulled Roy to the window, and asked Roy in a low voice:

"I need to step in...... Ease your relationship with Lord Lucius? ”

"Don't use it for the time being, I've already got this batch of armaments." Roy smiled, took out a list of supplies from his magic waist bag, and shook it in his hand, looking a little proud.

Then he continued: "It just so happens that my pack team is currently outside the city of Padstow, and I can come to this warehouse tomorrow to pick up the armaments, which just solves my urgent need." ”

"Speaking of which, I'm coming back this time to send you a batch of gray dwarf prisoners of war that I applied for earlier." Captain Berkeley said to Roy.

Roy didn't expect the Legion higher-ups to agree with his look......

"You're saying that the Legion hierarchy has agreed to my mine's use of grey dwarf prisoners?" Roy asked the head of Berkeley.

The head of the Berkeley regiment touched his nose and said with some embarrassment:

"The main thing is that our prisoner of war camp is overcrowded, and now we need to send some gray dwarf prisoners of war out, although there is some controversy about the prisoners of war going to the mines to serve in the mines, but for now we can only try to carry it out first."

Speaking of the matter of Queen Evanie Islands, the head of Berkeley was hesitant to say anything in the corridor just now, and at this moment Roy asked again:

"By the way, Berkeley, what's going on in the Queen Ivanie Islands?"

Roy had studied the modern history of the Elves and knew that the Silver Moon Elves and the Naga Sea Clan had fought for the Queen Ivanni Islands.

Although the Silver Moon Elves eventually gained sovereignty over the Queen Ivanie Islands, the Naga Sea Clan never really gave up the reef.

However, the current battle with the Silver Moon Elves on the Queen Ivanni Islands is the gray dwarf bandits known as the sea mole crickets, and it is said that these bandit groups should not be worth mentioning in the eyes of the regular army of the Silver Moon Elves.

The expression on Captain Berkeley's face was a little complicated, and it looked like he had eaten a fly and couldn't spit it out.

"The situation in the Queen Evanie Islands this time is a bit complicated, and I don't know where so many gray dwarf bandits have come out of nowhere, there are so many that there are on every island, and they can also dig tunnels all over the mountains, the main army is currently tired of coping, but the guards are frequently attacked by gray dwarf bandits on some marginal islands, and the top of the legion can only continue to send additional troops to the Queen Ivanie Islands."

Roy knew that the silver Pegasus warriors in the legion were strong, and the only one who pulled the crotch was the infantry guard regiment, but he didn't expect that they couldn't even beat the gray dwarf bandits......

"Has there been any movement from the Naga Sea Clan lately?" Roy asked casually again.

The head of Berkeley shook his head and said, "It's still on the sidelines for the time being, after all, the truce agreement in the Queen Ivanie Islands has only been signed for less than a hundred years. ”

Roy was a little speechless, a hundred years seemed like nothing to an elf.

"How many gray dwarf prisoners of war did you send this time?"

"There are 1,000 people in this batch, can you eat it?" The head of the Berkeley regiment said with some concern.

"No problem." Roy replied.

The head of Berkeley was a little relieved, it was really very troublesome to deal with these gray dwarf warriors.

He told Roy: "Then bring men with you tomorrow, and make sure to hand over these prisoners of war before I leave." ”

"I still have to pick up some armaments and supplies at this warehouse, and I will return to Partington Island tomorrow night, I originally thought that I could set off with the Padstow Guards, but the new army here has not been formed, and this time I can't bring the Padstow City Guards to the Queen Ivanie Islands."

The head of Berkeley apparently hoped that Roy would be able to take the Grey Dwarf prisoners of war from him while he was in Padstow.

"I'll come over tomorrow morning for the handover......" Roy promised.

Roy walked out of the Berkeley Commander's office and hurried out of the military headquarters.

……

Claire is about to leave the city of Padstow.

He had to return to Partington Island through the portal, and then return to Castletown City on the island ship, and if he delayed any longer, he might not be able to make it to the opening of the Elven Academy.

Among the materials that Claire brought over this time, in addition to the six barrels of life tree sap, the three magic furnaces were also very precious.

Three of the Magic Crucibles with a diameter of more than two meters are the core components of the furnace, and Claire transported them from Castletown to Partington Island by ship, and then used a special cart to knock down the three magic furnaces in the central square of Padstow City.

The biggest problem with the three magic furnaces was that they were too heavy, and it was impossible to transport them to the Pagisto Plateau by pack teams alone.

So Roy could only store the three magic furnaces in the warehouse.

After sending Claire back to Partington Island, Roy took Reisander's pack team to the warehouse behind the Silver Pegasus Headquarters, and showed the list of supplies signed by Chief Lucius, and received some armaments from the warehouse of the Logistics Department, and finally filled the pack for Reisander's pack team.

Reshande's pack will leave the city of Paddestow before dark......

Roy then approached the Berkeley Commander and received a thousand shackled Grey Dwarves from him, and Roy discovered that the prisoners of war were non-combat-type dwarves, many of whom were Grey Dwarf craftsmen personally selected for Roy by the Berkeley Commander.

There was no place for the Grey Dwarves in the city, and Roy only kept them in the warehouse for one night, and the Grey Dwarves described the warehouse as stinking as a pigsty.

As a last resort, Roy had no choice but to return to the Padesto Plateau ahead of schedule, and he personally led the thousand gray dwarf prisoners of war out of the city of Padestow and on foot to the Padesto Plateau.
