Chapter 112 Decision

On the dock, the crew and the vassal races of the elves are busy unloading the cargo. Sacks of spices are transported to the shore, and the heads of each family will check and load the warehouse.

Five of the thirty ships were loaded with marine cargo. The cargo packed in wooden boxes was carried down and piled on the other side of the wharf by those marine crew with blue film auricles. Their cargo did not need to be put into storage. After being unloaded, it will be transported directly into the Fairy Forest.

"Mr. Darren, this is the cost of this trip." A marine aristocrat wearing riding boots, breeches, puff sleeve shirts and a sleeveless windbreaker approached Darren, who was standing in the middle of the pier to maintain order, and motioned. The entourage handed a box of gold coins, "Please greet His Royal Highness for me, we will come again when we return." Darren asked the guards to take the cash box and bowed with a smile: "I wish you all the best, Master Winston." 　　

Master Winston nodded slightly and turned around to take the people away. A group of forest elves in formal civil costumes stood outside the pier waiting for the mermaid master.

"The treatment is so bad, the prince did not have the forest elves to come to greet him." The prince's guard carrying the cash box said sourly, "I used our five ships to give these gold coins..." 　　

"Keep your voice down, idiot! If it weren't for the sea clan in our fleet back and forth, do you think our voyage at sea can be so smooth?" Dali whispered, "The Lamian merchant fleet would also have trouble, but we wouldn't. This is much more cost-effective than borrowing a few boats to go out."

The guard shrugged, not daring to talk nonsense.

"Hi, Darren!" 　　

A harsh voice sounded, Darren whispered secretly, and smiled very sincerely when he turned his face: "Captain Bruce, I'm here." 　　

Chief Bruce evaded disgustingly. The crew, who had been sweating unloading, ran over with an annoyed look: "What's the matter, the chaos on the pier let His Royal Highness Anthony disembark?" 　　

"I'm so sorry, Captain Bruce, this is a mistake in our arrangement, the place should be cleared first for His Royal Highness Anthony to disembark, but when the ship enters the port, the port has no time to prepare a residence commensurate with His Highness's identity, so..."

"Shut up, where is His Royal Highness Carlisle?" 　　

"His Royal Highness entered the port and negotiated with the Forest Elf to clear out the best place for His Royal Highness Anthony..." 　　

The Captain Bruce stared at Darren for a few seconds, turned his head with a cold snort, and turned towards him. Ran to the big ship where Anthony was.　　

"...I don't want to disembark because of the chaos of the wharf. His Royal Highness Anthony is so far away from Prince Carlisle. Why should I just follow him if I hate it?" The guard couldn't help but mutter.　　

Darren didn't bother to talk too much this time.　　

To the east of the port, the snow werewolf rented area.　　

Carlisle and Tim stared at the unlicensed food store with prosperous business, and couldn't recover for a long time.

"Huh? Hello?" Mumu raised his hand and dangled in front of them. Seeing that the eyes of these two were not moving, he turned his head nervously and shouted, "Oh my god, Ashu! Carlisle and Tim are stupid!" 　　

"Come on Help!!" Ashu was angrily and anxiously caught in his face by countless hands holding copper coins.　　

"Oh oh!" Mumu ran back quickly. "My hot and sour noodles~~Hurry up~~I'm going to starve to death~~"　　

"My skewers are not ready yet? Come on, wait for a drink!"　　

"Who stole the maltose I put here?!" 　　

"You bastard! I bought the bottle of hot sauce, and you pour it too much? Stop it!" 　　

"I've been dying in the killing bee's nest. I've managed to escape and have a good meal. Are you still robbing me of my braised pork?!"

Hey, no fights are allowed at table number five! Let others have a good meal!" 　　

"Nanfeng, don't worry about the stew, throw out the two who fought!" 　　

"Oh." Cub Nanfeng The guests lined up in front of the stewed pot squeezed out from the curse, walked to the fifth table, swiftly attacked with both hands, respectively grabbing the two adventurers who had already taken out their weapons, each holding one hand, and standing in place." Hey!" He threw the two on the beach...　　

"Ah-boom!" 　　

The scene fell silent for a while, and the guy who was pouring other people's hot sauce silently returned the bottle to the original owner, and took one by the way. Copper coins were handed over to compensate others for their losses.　　 Carlisle & Tim standing not far away: "..." 　　

"Adventurer's business is not easy to do..." It's not that Tim, who has never seen the chaos in the slum, twitched his mouth.　　

"...That's right." Carlisle wiped his sweat and nodded. The owner didn't have the strength to suppress. These unruly adventurers could kill you with a little friction. During the rush hour of lunch, the food store of the Snow Wolf tribe was basically in such a chaotic and noisy style. The two stood and waited for more than half an hour.

After most of the adventurers ate and drank, they finally walked in. ... It is too difficult for them to use their arms and buttocks to squeeze others out for a place where they can walk like adventurers. Then... in order to have a pleasant seat, the two of them had to clean up the table provided to the guests by themselves-adventurers would return the bowl after eating. The table is designated not to be wiped, and the table is messy. Don't mention the degree.　　 "Carlisle, what are you going to eat?" Mumu who was standing behind the powder cooking pot shouted.　　

"Of course it's a tasting that we haven't tried before." Carlisle replied.　　

"Go there and line up." Mumu honestly pointed at the cooking pot.　　

"..."　　

A few copper coins business, really can't expect the service attitude of the "clerk" to be so good, Prince Carlisle comforted himself and stood behind the team.

Fortunately, most of the guests left at this moment, and the rest was either eaten one by one or rearranged after eating. After waiting for ten minutes, Carlisle and Tim had tastes stewed flavor on the mainland. 　　

"It is clear that our country is where the spices are produced. Why do they know how to use spices better than us?" The flavors of tangerine peel, cinnamon, star anise, anise and other flavors were tasted from the full-flavored stewed soup, and Prince Carlisle couldn't laugh or cry. Tim couldn't stop eating...　　

Sent away the last batch of big-bellied guys who were struggling to survive. The clerk finally took a breath. Mumu grabbed a pancake and sat down at Carlisle's table, grinning triumphantly. Mouth laughed: "How about it, not bad, delicious." 　　

"It's not bad." Carlisle has eaten the stew and is eating hot and sour noodles. He wrapped the leaves with a fork and curiously said, "The vegetables are very fresh, you guys. Have you found a way to preserve the vegetables for a long time?" 　　

"No, these vegetables were only delivered yesterday." Mumu Kazkaz gnawed the pancakes, "The vegetables I picked up from the ground yesterday morning are of course very fresh." Carlisle and Tim stared at her blankly.　　

"...Could you let Green... Balker send the original materials?" Carlisle was surprised.

"No, we couldn't. It's floated down on a wooden boat." Mumu was proud again, "Our small canal has been dug through, and now it's fast going back and forth to the tribe, and fresh ingredients are delivered every few days."

　　"Sizzle——" Carlisle and Tim shocked intake of breath.... They both went to the Snow Wolf tribe and knew how far it was from the coast. How long did it take to dug the artificial river from the tribe? Are you demons? !　　

Prince Carlisle was not in a hurry to return to the fleet, and simply ran to the snow wolf tribe's small canal. After walking for about two hours, ten kilometers away from the Port of Elven, standing on the side of a canyon where the earth's crust has been cracked, Prince Carlisle was so shocked that he could not speak while looking at the artificially excavated wide channel leading to the sea.

To be fair, the canal excavated by the snow werewolf tribe is not particularly spectacular. After all, it is only an artificial river ten meters wide and two meters deep. The two sides of the river bank are only paved with a layer of cement bricks. The amount of work has not reached an astonishing level. .

But if you calculate the total length of the river and the pitiful population of the Huoyan tribe, it's amazing to be able to build a canal of this size in less than a year. As a prince, Carlisle is very It is clear that if a river project of the same scale is carried out in St. Bridge, then the expenditure of manpower and material resources is enough to drag down the municipal economy of cities and towns with a population of more than 100,000.

"No... it's in St. Bridges. This kind of river project without sufficient clear benefits can't be passed on the council of any city... Unless it is the noble manor that was submerged during the flood, but It's also impossible. Who would build a manor on that kind of land with high risks and insecure returns, and some were more securely available for the nobles to choose."

Prince Carlisle's inner thoughts flipped, and the hand hanging beside him subconsciously held it. fist. It is difficult for cities and towns with hundreds of thousands of people to do things, but grassland tribes with only a few hundred people have done it. The difference is not only in the races of the two sides... Ordinary people can only see the appearance. Carlisle can see the connotation, and this is what makes him feel uncomfortable.　　

-Teacher Ayun can concentrate the power of Snow Wolf, Cat, Gray Dwarf, and Goblin to complete seemingly impossible tasks, but as a disciple, he? As the prince of the human kingdom, what about him? !

Mumu untied the rope tied to the stump on the shore, and the cub Nanfeng each took a paddle board and jumped onto the wooden rowing boat, and waved to the shore: "Come on, Tim, ready to go." 　　

"Okay! " Tim and Carlisle nodded, climbed down the dirt stairs cut out on the side of the canyon, and carefully jumped onto the boat.　　

"Let's go ~" Mumu waved his hand with Carlisle, paddling side by side with the south wind, and the humble hand rowing boat came up against the current with the sound of the water flapping, and the speed was quite fast.　　

Carlisle stood by the gorge and watched the boat drifting away. He exhaled a long breath, turned and returned... After ignoring his brother for several hours, it was time to go back and face it.　　

As Carlisle thought, most of the day when the fleet entered the port, a lot of cargo was unloaded, and his elder brother Anthony still did not get off the ship.

"The forest elves welcomed Master Winston of the Sea Clan very warmly, but nobody came to greet the royal family of St. Bridges. His Royal Highness Anthony was probably angry about this." Darren, who stayed at the dock, accompanied Carlisle on the big boat, while no one else is around, he smirked in Carlisle's ear.　　

"Are you deliberately letting someone reveal it to him?" Carlisle was amused.

"That was not deliberate, it was seen by His Royal Highness Anthony's chief guard." Darren shrugged.　　

Carlisle shook his head, and before entering the cabin, he tidied the skirts of his clothes that had been disturbed by the sea breeze, cheered up and put on a royal smile, and stretched out his hand to open the door.

In the exquisitely decorated main cabin, His Royal Highness Prince Anthony of St. Bridge is elegantly sipping red wine on the sofa. On the wooden chair on the other side, he wears a strapless dress and a tulle song. The reader was humming in a Southern Minor, and the soft and delicate gentle tune made Carlisle a little drowsy after just a few sentences.

His Royal Highness Anthony seemed to have not noticed Carlisle entering by pushing the door. His fingers on the armrest of the sofa were tapping rhythmically to the singer's beat. There was still a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth, which seemed to be leisurely. Indulge in the soft singing.　　

Carlisle was very tired of this kind of "decent" communication that had to wait for others to take the initiative to speak out. He simply walked over to the singer and gave a pause gesture to the singer, and sat down on the sofa opposite Anthony.　　

The singing stopped abruptly, and the singer looked at Anthony nervously.　　

Anthony "finally" saw his younger brother, turned his head slightly, the singer quickly got up and bowed, resigned and left.

When the woman walked out of the room, Carlisle spoke: "Anthony, the hotel where General Kleist stays is not open to the public. I think we may have to live on a boat."

Anthony did not hide his dissatisfaction: "Were you also living on the boat,when you guys came here last year? "

"No, there were no overly picky guests among us last year, so I lived in the same room with Tim and Dan. It was a rustic cabin. We could see spiders and centipedes in the corners of the room and under the bed. Ants, by the way, there are also lizards, and occasionally you can see snakes."

"Carlisle! Is this how you say to me!" Anthony slammed his right hand, and the beautiful crystal red wine glass hit the wall and turned into pieces.

"I'm rude." Carlisle nodded slightly. "I'm just telling the truth, Anthony, what can you lie about in a place like this."

Anthony stood up abruptly, and pointed his brother unceremoniously with his finger: "You are like this. Uncultivated words and deeds really humiliate the surname Ferdinand, Carlisle, does the addition of a barbarian teacher make you forget the demeanor you should be as a royal family? Don't hesitate to mix with a group of inferior people, what are you? To what extent do you want to humiliate St. Bridge?" 　　

Carlisle was amused, smiling and spreading his hands: "You may have some misunderstanding, Anthony. The Ferdinand family is indeed the royal family in St. Bridge, but When we go out of the country, the royal family is just a kind of identity. Just like now, in the port of the forest elves, you and I are just foreign merchants. If you think this is a humiliation to St. Bridge, So why do you want to board the ship?"

"What are you talking about?" Anthony growled angrily.

"If you think that you can be a good crown prince by hiding in a clean and warm room and being treated respectfully by everyone, then I don't think you will do everything possible to get my father to put pressure on me and squeeze into the fleet. Now." Carlisle was very calm.

"Carlisle!" 　　

"The forest elves don't care if the fleet comes with a prince or two. I am willing to step back and stay on the boat, but I don't want to be the forest elves knowing that there are two princes in the fleet. 'When I found that we didn't even bother to maintain the most superficial friendship between us, this is my responsibility as a member of the royal family."

Carlisle nodded slightly, "but at the same time, I have a more important responsibility to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction. So, Anthony, please forgive me for not being able to learn from you, because others don't have enough respect and don't give you the dignity that you deserve, so I'm throwing a tantrum on business.

Crack! Crack! Boom!" 　　

Darren and Bruce guard guarding in the corridor shrank their necks at the same time, and the two simultaneously looked back at the confinement gate, and inadvertently they met, and Brue guard guarded Darren with a stare. Putting his head apart, Darren curled his lips and rolled his eyes calmly.　　

The two princes quarreled more and more, and the people next to them were also very headache...Fortunately, they knew that they had to close the door to make a noise, and it didn't make it too difficult for everyone.

When Carlisle returned to his room, there were blood stains on the back of his hand. Darren found the ointment and put it on him, hung the coat for him, and opened a fruit can and poured it on the plate: "Anthony knows that he brought the maid. Serving him, I think you can also think about it, Carlisle, you can't have to wash your own socks every time you come out." 　　

"The space on the boat is relatively tight, and there is no need to let people who are not necessary come up." Carlisle shook his head. "Besides the days on the boat are so hard, why bother the lady."

"Ha" Darren said, "Did you also say this to Anthony?" 　　

"The singer's throat is suffering from improper maintenance." Lost, this is someone else's job for a lifetime." Carlisle frowned.　　

Darren spread his hands together: "I don't think your brothers will be able to reconcile in this life." 　　

"Harmony, do you think so?" Carlisle raised his eyes.

"From the standpoint of thinking about you, I have to say so. Change to my own standpoint, let me say offensively, I really don't want to see His Royal Highness Anthony." Darren made no secret, "I actually used Tim. Making a fuss, I think this kind of behavior is very indecent." 　　

Carlisle probably didn't expect Darren to be so direct, so he shook his head with a wry smile. It was late at night when Tim arrived at the snow werewolf tribe. When he stood in the square where he had been twice, watching the hazy moonlight watching the crowds running back and forth busy, his mouth was open. close...

"It's time to grab alfalfa again." Mumu rubbed his aching arm and looked around. Tim could only look at a rough shadow, and she could clearly see that everyone was carrying everything they were carrying. Bale, "Then Ayun is very busy. It's not easy to find him now. You should sleep with us for one night, and we will talk about it tomorrow?" 　　

"Uh...ok." Tim nodded stiffly.　　

"I'm not going to sleep, I'm going to find Dahe." Nan Feng said. "You want to go and ask for something to eat with Dahe, right, you can go." Mumu smiled and slapped Nanfeng, "Don't go there, Tim, let's go here, don't block others The way." 　　

Tim hurriedly followed Mumu.　　

Snow werewolg clan's big bed that Tim is also very used to it, but he used to live with his own people before, but this time he brought Mumu into the Snow Werewolf's room and let Mumu to sleep together.

When he took off his robe, Tim suddenly remembered something and looked down at Mumu stiffly.　　

Mumu had already taken off his clothes in twos or twos, and lay on the side with only a pair of pants, sleeping on her back.

"Mumu seems to be...a female...?" Tim's eyelids jumped, and his gaze moved towards Mumu's chest subconsciously-an inverted triangle figure, a large pectoral muscle, the same model as Darren, the muscle mass is still better than that of Darren....　　

Tim calmed down, took off his robe, folded it, and lay down comfortably.

Xiao Yun is a person who pays attention to efficiency in doing things. Not only does he emphasize efficiency, he also has to influence the people around him and let others improve their efficiency. So... I floated on the sea for more than a month and floated on a rowing boat. After ten hours, Tim just didn't get the treatment of waking up naturally, and he woke up to Xiao Yun when it was still dark.　　

"Just let us know that you are here, let Mu Mu and the others take the talk. You came here specially, did something happen to Carlisle?" Xiao Yun said.　　

Tim, whose eyes haven't been fully opened: "..." 　　

Ten minutes later, Tim completed the process of getting up, washing and dressing just like in a war, and sat face to face with Xiao Yun in the activity room.

"Your identity problem? What is this problem?" Xiao Yun heard Tim's words and was particularly puzzled. "Isn't the alchemist a spellcaster? Isn't the spellcaster very great? Even if you are the son of a serf, it won't be affected like this ?" 　　

"For the caster, it's okay to be just the son of a serf. The problem is that I am the'adopted son' of the Humphreys." Tim smiled bitterly, "I was adopted by the Humphreys and trained to cast spells. According to the rules of the caster, I should serve the Humphrey family until the death of the owner who adopted me—the caster has a long life span, and it is impossible to be raised by any family to serve each family for life, but give back The contemporary Patriarch must do it, otherwise, the Patriarch of the Humphrey Family has the right to lodge a protest against the Alchemists Association and expel me from the Association." 　　

Xiao Yun first wanted to say what kind of ghost logic this is, but substitute it. After pondering the customs of this world, I found that the logic is not wrong, and even to a certain extent, it guarantees the interests of the caster-in case a certain family arranges a group of "adopted children" with the talent of the caster for its children, then After becoming a spellcaster, you have to take care of a bear child for several decades, which is too expensive even for the caster; then simply fix the object of the "benefits" on the contemporary Patriarch, and if the Patriarch hangs up, the caster will be free. It is more reliable than the ancient Chinese scholars to accept the bets of wealthy businessmen.

A strong adoption trains a spellcaster. The age of the patron must be at least thirty or forty. The caster must be at least ten or twenty years old, and the paternity must be at least fifty or sixty years old. At this time, it will be over after ten years of service. Something wrong.

"I'm just a low-level alchemist. Previously, the service provided to the Humphreys was to provide a certain amount of alchemy potion every year. This level is enough. No matter how much I can't do, the Humphreys won't. Make an unreasonable request." Tim said painfully, "His Royal Highness asked Baron Humphrey to surrender, but the Baron couldn't refuse...Because of this, His Royal Highness and Baron Humphrey had already boarded the ship, and it was me who caused Carlisle to trouble. "　　

"If Anthony wants to get on the ship, he can do everything about you or not. After all, he is a member of the royal family and Carlisle's elder brother." Xiao Yun frowned, "You are not as difficult as you think. Carlisle prepares After more than two years, I don't think I'll win. The odds of winning are much greater. As long as he and Anthony decide the outcome, Baron Humphrey will naturally know which side to choose. The only problem is..." 　　

Tim listened to Xiao Yun The previous words were exactly the same as Prince Carlisle's tone. He was excited. The last sentence lifted his heart: "What is it?" 　　

Xiao Yun said coldly in an understatement: "It is whether Carlisle has the determination to cut the grass and root."
