As she followed Ella to her room, Luna suddenly asked, "Miss Ella, is there a story about your bar?" Does it have something to do with the druids? I always felt that there was a unique divine aura on it. ”

When they first stepped into the tavern, they had touched on this topic, which was diverted at the time, and the follow-up development was beyond everyone's expectations, and the topic was directly shelved.

However, this incident still caught Luna's attention, and the more she felt about it, the more unusual she felt about it.

"There is indeed a legend that we in the village of Anfil hold a deer festival every year on the last day of August to commemorate this legend, and it is said that the first person who lived in the village of Anfil was a priestess of Mericay, the goddess of the forest and the rangers.

It was she who single-handedly founded the village of Anfil, and she had the ability to transform into a deer, and one day when she was transforming into a deer, she was shot and wounded by the nobles of Waterdeep who came to visit in ignorance, and even after she turned back into human form, the nobles were still chasing her.

She fled back to the village, all the way to the bar at the Antlerpot Tavern, where she was crying for help before dying, her blood spilled on the way, including on the bar.

Legend has it that this priestess was not an ordinary priestess, but an incarnation of the goddess in disguise.

As a result, it is not uncommon for followers of the goddess Melicay to come to the tavern just to kiss the bar, saying that by doing so, they can ask the goddess a question and get a clear answer, but only once a year. "Ella knows everything about it.

Luna's first reaction to the story was, "What was the point of Lady Melicay doing this in the first place?" Even if she transforms into a deer, she can kick those ignorant nobles to death with one hoof, right? ”

"Fable warns the world, this is the favorite method of the gods, and the goddess Melikai wants to warn the world through this incident not to hunt and kill creatures in the wild without authorization for fun, because what you see with the naked eye is often just the appearance, and when you find out the truth, it will be too late to regret it." Gavin read as he sided.

"That's right." Ella agreed, "When many Ranger and Druid talk about this, they answer other people's questions like this, and when they arrive, these are these two rooms, and the conditions are a little rudimentary, please don't mind." ”

"It's very satisfying to have a place to stay, where do you dare to force some? Thank you Ms. Ella today, and we'll see you tomorrow. Gavin smiled.

"See you tomorrow." Ella opened the room and said goodbye.

Seeing that Luna seemed to want to follow up on her room and had something to talk about, Gavin shook his head, "If you have any questions, we'll talk later." ”

They now live on someone else's territory, and they have to be careful that the walls have ears.

Although Daddy Creven is good to him, it is always right to be careful and careful.

"Okay." Luna wasn't just going on an adventure, and knowing what Gavin was worried about, she waved her hand and said, "We'll see you tomorrow." ”

"See you tomorrow." Gavin nodded and walked into the room.

The area is not large, more than ten square meters, put down a bed, it is a bit full, it is used to sleep, and the toiletries are very complete.

But Gavin didn't move, but used his own one, several sets of portable dimensional caves, and even the water was pure water made by water-making.

Unless it was the previous unavoidable special circumstance, Gavin walked outside, did not eat other people's things, did not drink other people's water, and he was not even ready to sleep in the bed, took out a blanket, wrapped it directly around himself, got into the most hidden corner of the room, sat cross-legged on the ground, and entered a state of trance.

This habit was not unique to him, and it was a virtue shared by most of the extraordinary adventurers of Faeron.

Because no one knows whether the stranger on the other side is a human or a ghost.

During the day, he is also hospitable, treating you as a biological brother he has never met.

At night, I will sharpen my knife and prepare to slaughter you as a fat sheep, throw you into the hanging pot, and be the staple food of tomorrow.

While it's unlikely here, it's not 100% sure.

After entering the trances this time, Gavin rarely did not do messy things, but concentrated on cultivating his mind.

The news that should be released has been released.

All that's left is to wait for tomorrow, the reaction of Anfil Village's side changes, and just act on your own initiative.

In general, he does not have much conflict of interest with the local natives, on the contrary, there are still many transactions to do, and then dig up the treasures he needs by the way, and officially open the path of the Arcane Spiritual Master.

After saying goodbye to Gavin, Ella did not return to her room, but returned to the tavern lobby.

Sure enough, the tavern owner and the waitress were there, talking in whispers, and the topic didn't need to be asked, it was the pair of young people she had just sent to the back.

Just as Gavin couldn't trust the natives right away, they were skeptical about their true history.

A waitress with a little baby fat on her face asked curiously, "Daddy, are you really sure that he is the owner of Vizeme Manor?" It's a little too young. ”

"Does it matter to us whether it is or not?" Crevin said calmly, "As long as he has a steady stream of ghost wine in his hand, he is not either, if he can't take it out, he is not." ”

"Whether it's or not, we'll see tomorrow morning." Ella interjected with a smile, "I heard that he came to buy war horses in large quantities, those who have war horses for sale, they will definitely go to find out his details overnight, for those big families, this is not a difficult thing, so, if any of you want to touch his bed, you have to wait until tomorrow night." ”

"Phew! You just want to touch his bed! It's as if we're the escort dancers in the Hall of Joy across the street. ”

"Don't pretend, you were about to stick it on people, so you almost wrote your thoughts on your face."

"Say it again, be careful that I tear your mouth."

"Hah...... I'm afraid of you! You try it! ”

"Try it, just try it."

"Joke aside, I hope you must think carefully before you get entangled with him, this young man, I can't understand, not only for you, but even for Anfil Village, he is a passerby, stop here for a while, you will pack up and hit the road, it is difficult for you to catch up with him." Creven solemnly warned.

Even if you have a kitten or a puppy for a long time, you will have feelings, not to mention that these girls have been with you for some years.

Although they are relatively good among their peers, they are not enough to see compared to that young man.

If he stayed by his side and guarded this tavern, at least he could guarantee that before he died, he would watch them get married and have children, and ensure that their whole family would have no worries about food and clothing.

But once they choose to walk out of this village with him, what they need to face in the future depends on their own circumstances.

"Dad, don't worry, we're not three-year-olds, we know what we're doing, we know what we want."

"That's right, Dad, we won't leave you, we still have to provide for you, sisters, do you say yes?"

"Yes, Daddy, how can we be willing to leave you!"

Six waitresses grinning comforting Creven.

"Okay, it's so late, don't go back, squeeze into sleep in the tavern, I guess, there will be excitement tomorrow, you are busy." With a wave of his hand, Creevin drove the six waitresses back to their rooms, but sat down at the bar without moving.

After all six waitresses had left, Creevin took out a crystal ball from the hidden compartment under the bar, believing that his old friend should be interested in this young man, but he didn't know if he was free now.

After wiping the crystal ball three times in a row, seeing that it had no response, Creven could only stuff it back into the dark grid, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that his old friend doesn't know where to venture again.

The spellcaster is good, at the same age, he is more and more energetic, and he is still thriving on the road of adventure.

On the contrary, it is himself, he has already entered his retirement career, and his body has begun to decline every year, if he does not consider the means of prolonging his life, in another twenty or thirty years, let alone a wine shaker, it will be a problem to take the dishes and chopsticks by himself.

Time just doesn't pass like this, and in the blink of an eye, life is already approaching twilight.

Stimulated by Gavin, Crevin rarely fell into the exclamation of the elderly, and sat at the bar until dawn.

His exclamation is purely superfluous.

At his professional level, life expectancy cannot be completely measured by ordinary people, and it is normal to live to be one hundred and thirty or forty years old.

If you can go one step further and step into the legend, your life will be doubled.

Not to mention the longevity methods, there are as many as cow hair, it depends on whether you want to think about it or not, of course, most of the longevity methods have serious side effects, such as vampires' bloodlust, such as lichs need soul nourishment.

Creven was right, today was destined to be a busy day at the Antlers Tavern.

As soon as the sky was dark, the door was crowded with people.

And in Anfil Village, they are considered to be the heads and faces of the people, they are the stewards of the major horse farms, and the owners of independent horse farms.

Their presence here at the same time indirectly proves that Gavin's identity is no longer in doubt, that he is the Gavin Nodt from the Vizeme Manor.

In addition to this, more information about him was dug up.

He is also the uncrowned king of a kobold lord in the rocks, with tens of thousands of kobolds, mining for him day and night.

He is also a dragon slayer, and he has killed the young red dragon who has been in trouble for many years on the East Road with one person and one ride.

These are all secondary to these horse ranchers, the most important thing is that he is rich, very rich, and has the intention of buying horses, buying a large number of horses.

As soon as the two pieces of news were combined, he immediately became their most honored guest, and it was worth waiting outside the door early in the morning to meet them.

"Mr. Gavin, this is the situation now, what are you going to do?" Ella gave Gavin a detailed introduction to the situation outside the hanging deer.

"Thanks, I see." Gavin turned to Crevin and said, "Teacher, can you borrow a tavern?" ”

"There won't be any guests so early, you feel free." Creevin yawned and walked to the backyard, "Old, old, old, this sleep is getting more and more sleepy, you are busy, I'll go to sleep again." ”

The tavernkeeper's meaning is obvious, the tavern you can use, but here the matter, he is not involved.

"Thank you, teacher." After Gavin sent Crevin Gong away, he turned his gaze to Ella and said, "Can you stay and help entertain you?" Afterwards, I will pay you three times your salary. ”

"It's okay to help entertain, and triple the salary will be free." Ella replied with a smile that although they came from a small place, they had a good teacher by their side to teach them by word and deed, and they understood what was the most valuable thing to call a debt of affection.

Once they receive three times the salary, they are equivalent to an employment relationship, ten and eight gold coins, they have not yet put it in their eyes, but the personal debt of a young rich man is worth it.

The other party's identity has been fully verified, and it is more than they expected.

"Then I'll trouble you, wait a minute, you will stand next to me and help me introduce their specific situation one by one." Gavin didn't debunk their thoughts, because he still had a lot of places to rely on them here.

"No problem." Ella replied that she was an out-and-out snake and knew everything about the local horse family.

As soon as the door of the tavern opened, the heads of the horse breeding families rushed in, led by Gavin's old acquaintance Orila, who was the middleman of both parties today, introducing the two sides to each other, plus Ella helping to explain in the back, Gavin soon had a basic concept of the horse breeding industry in Anfil Village.

There are two leaders in the horse breeding industry in Anfil Village, one is the Roinhearn family, who are famous for their fast horses, mainly light horses, supplemented by heavy horses, plus a small number of unique flying horses.

The other dragon leader is the Ilzimer family, who are known for producing knightly dueling horses, mainly for breeding a variety of heavy horses, supplemented by light horses.

The number of war horses owned by these two families accounts for half of the entire Anfil Village, and their right to speak can be said to be very important, as long as an agreement is reached with them, other families and independent horse farms are generally implemented with them as a weather vane.

"I don't know how many war horses you want to buy, Mr. Gavin?" The person who opened the question was a middle-aged man, dressed in a neat gown, dressed meticulously, like a standard aristocratic lord, in fact, he was one of the strongest men in the place, a mage at least fifteen or above, named Ambala, the administrator of the Roinhearn family here, and also the teacher and guardian of O'Lelah.

"Can you take the liberty of asking, how many horses can you sell at one time in Anfil Village?" Gavin asked rhetorically without answering.

"This ......" Master Ambala hesitated for a moment, and said honestly, "because no one has ever asked this question, so we have never counted it, but I can give Mr. a rough estimate based on the situation of our family's horse farm, 1,000 heavy war horses, 2,000 light war horses, and 3,000 driving horses, which should be prepared within ten days, it should not be too much of a problem, if it is a grace period of one month, the number should still be able to rise by 30%. ”

Gavin nodded, "What about the trading method?" ”

"There are two ways to trade large quantities of war horses, one is that we will drive the war horses to the City of Radiance, you bring the goods over, barter, or pay directly in cash, and the second way is that we will send people to drive the horses to the location designated by Mr. for trading, but in terms of this price, there will definitely be a huge disparity, after all, in the transportation process, there is a lot of consumption." Gen Ambala replied.

"I see." Gavin pondered for a moment and said, "Then please go back and compile a list of the various horse quantities and quotations that can be provided to me, and the price will be calculated according to the price of the goods that I will pick up at your horse farm and deliver the goods to the City of Radiance to trade into the goods you specify."

I will decide whether to sign a purchase agreement with you according to your quotation, and once the purchase agreement is signed, I will send someone to your horse farm to pick up the goods in two ten days, and please prepare in advance. ”

Even if he is not good at business, he will not be stupid to follow a group of horse farm stewards to get together to negotiate the price, he directly came to a bidding method, or a secret bid, neither clearly stated how many horses he needs, nor expressed his psychological price, everything is determined according to your own psychological price, but whether to buy or not, is to decide by yourself.

For more specific business operations, he plans to return to the territory to bring in more professional people, while also leaving time for his own people to conduct in-depth research and understanding of Anfil Village and the surrounding horse market, especially in terms of prices.

The horse farm owners present couldn't help but glance at each other, and they seemed to be able to see the sparks in each other's eyes.

The people who can run a horse farm are not stupid people, and they immediately noticed the disadvantages of this method, which is clearly intended to intensify the competition between them, so as to seek the greatest benefit from it.

As for joint price raising, this kind of thing, that is, when you think about it, when you really do it, it's very difficult and difficult.

Because they negotiated a high price in front of them, and when they made their own offers, they were lower than this price, and if they wanted to win this contract alone, they had to tear their faces in the end.

Unless there is a hegemonic monopoly in the middle, he does not open his mouth, and no one else dares to sell.

This is clearly not the case with the horse farming industry in Anfil Village.

"This matter is settled." Master Ambala smiled, "In addition, we have a reluctant request, I heard that Sir has received the true blending tradition of Master Creven, and can make that kind of cocktail that makes people cry, can we open our eyes and taste it?" ”

"Sorry, it's not that I don't want to, but I've run out of ghost wines for the Contemplative Cocktail." Gavin said apologetically, "Why don't you do that, when we sign the contract, I'll definitely go with the ghost wine to help us sign the contract." ”

"That's the only way, then we won't bother too much, and we'll retire first."

These horse farm owners came in a hurry and left in a hurry, and they ran back to their horse farms one by one to count the horses that could be shot.

The real problem is the quotation.

What price to quote, not only to let the other party buy their own horses, but also to ensure that their own interests are maximized, this is indeed a head-scratching question.

When they heard that the female mage of the Roinhearn family stayed with the young man as an escort and traveled around the village of Amfil, many horse farm owners scolded Ambala on the spot for being cunning and cunning, and even using beauty tricks, what could be simpler than talking directly from the other party's hands?
