Chapter 293: Contact with caution (5 updates)

October 3, noon.

Bay City, Warehouse District.

There is an endless stream of caravans and adventurer groups coming and going.

Most of them sell or buy various goods here.

The Gulf Territory will only collect taxes here and only once.

Paris led the people to inventory the iron-tied bows and long swords, and they were full of praise for their modified features and quality.

Ani was following him, looking curiously at the busy warehouse area. More of her attention fell on Butler Ralph and the carriage behind him.

Matthew pushed open the car door, happily gnawed the teeth of a candied haws, and sat on his shoulder as usual.

"Ah? Are they really elves? You can't tell at all..."

Yaya glanced at Paris secretly and asked curiously.

Matthew pulled his thoughts away from his memories: "Yes, they are not only elves, but also elven elites whose average strength has reached a high level."

"As for their disguises, it is said that they were provided by a legendary elf spellcaster."

"Unless the spell is actively cast by a legendary spellcaster, it is almost impossible to see through their disguise."

Nodding in sudden realization, Yaya pointed at the face he looked over and said:

"Ah? That young lady is so beautiful!"

The crisp sound of Yaya made Aini look over and reveal a faint smile.

She calmly looked at Matthew's arcanist robe and saluted very smartly:

"Dear Lord, hello."

"She is also very cute..."

Looking at Aini with some surprise, Matthew never thought of it.

This heir to the Silverleaf family, whose name he only heard but not his person, was completely unlike the elves in his memory, who were bossy and arrogant.

Based on this alone, Matthew thought highly of her.

Being able to separate from the influence of the surrounding environment and form one's own values ​​​​and world view represents unusual excellence.

"Perhaps, if this heir had not died, the Silver Leaf family would not have destroyed themselves as they remembered."

Hearing the compliment, Ya Ya burst out laughing with joy, his chubby face trembling, making people want to touch it twice.

She said very happily:

"My name is Yaya, beautiful big sister, what is your name?"

Aini felt the friendly atmosphere coming from Yaya, calmly looked away from Matthew, and replied to Yaya with a smile:

"Ya Ya, it's such a cute name. Just call me Aini."

Before Aini could react, Yaya, who moved lightly, rushed towards her with a "swish". Under her stunned gaze, he threw himself into her arms and sniffed curiously:

"Huh? What smells so good? I wonder how it tastes?"

Aini, who couldn't laugh or cry, did not follow Matthew's example. She put Yaya on her shoulders, hugged the cute little guy with both hands and explained:

"It should taste like the fruit I just ate. If you want to eat it, I can bring you some later."

Matthew heard the implication of her words and had no intention of kissing her teeth. However, he smiled and said:

"Hello, Miss Ani, my name is Matthew, and I am the lord of this territory."

"I haven't welcomed you yet, are you having a good time in the Bay Area?"

Ani heard Matthew admitting his identity, and when he met those dark eyes, the God of Death almost nodded:

"Hello, Mr. Matthew, we had a great time in Bayland and we like this city very much."

Ma Xiu showed a "satisfied" expression and asked without thinking while walking in front:

"In addition to these weapons and equipment, we have many things here. Is there anything else we need to buy?"

Opening her mouth slightly, Aini noticed the look in Paris's eyes and asked softly:

"Everything else has been bought everywhere, but I haven't found the space crystal, not even from some auction houses..."

Matthew raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Space crystal? You are so lucky, we just have it here!"

Aini suppressed the excitement in her heart and pretended to be surprised and said: "Really? That's really great!"

"It happens to be noon. I would like to invite Miss Aini and your companions to have lunch at the lord's mansion, so that I can show my friendship as a landlord."

Not wanting to continue acting with her, Matthew took the initiative and said to Butler Ralph:

"Notify the kitchen to prepare for the banquet."

After hearing this, Aini was a little excited and looked towards Paris inquiringly:

"How was it?"

"Go!"

Aini responded immediately and started asking and answering the lovely Yaya, showing quite good adaptability.

Matthew remained calm, and when he returned to the Lord's Mansion, he walked into the newly renovated restaurant and motioned for the two of them to sit down.

Looking at the dazzling array of food, Aini was a little reserved at first, until Yaya took the initiative to pick up the food for her, and she immediately became lively.

Paris was also very patient and didn't think about other things. While praising the deliciousness of the food, he praised the quality of the Gulf Territory's weapons.

As long as he can say something nice and achieve his goal, he can say the same things all day long.

The burden of the family and the hope of the kingdom made Paris not care about his own face.

It took about half an hour to eat.

The table full of food was eaten up.

Yaya burped comfortably and smiled at Aini who was still a little embarrassed next to her:

"Yeah, I'm so obsessed with eating..."

Aini smiled "puff", took the initiative to pick up the unusual teeth, and sincerely praised:

"The more you eat, the faster you grow..."

Seeing that the time was ripe, Paris asked the elegant butler Ralph next to him:

"We still lack some space crystals. What are their prices?"

Butler Ralph has naturally learned their secret from the Lord.

Sure enough, where there are interests, there will be conflicts.

The Gulf Territory is our home, and building our home well is more important than anything else.

He didn't show any expression on his face and nodded very normally:

"We have continuous output of space crystals in our territory, and the quality and size are quite good."

"However, we generally don't plan to sell it. The Lord is studying how to make space storage equipment."

"If the research is successful, it can be sold at a higher price..."

Space storage equipment?

Lord?

These two pieces of information that suddenly came out of the blue made Paris's heart skip a beat.

He almost changed his mind, but continued patiently:

"The quantity we need is not large, we only need 6 yuan at the moment."

"We can buy it at a price 20% higher than the market price."

It's not that Paris was reluctant to part with the gold coins, but that he wanted to leave room for bargaining to avoid being blackmailed.
