Chapter 227: Negotiations and transactions (part 1)

That night, after the banquet for welcoming the Chadorei envoy and celebrating the end of the project, Aristophanes led Talissa and his party to the front of the Acandor Hall under the bright moonlight.
The cold white moonlight shines on the surface of the building, and the white walls can be clearly seen through the light blue shield. The blue cube in the spire at the top rotates slowly, emitting a fascinating light.
The two guards hurriedly stood up after seeing the incoming slogan. After chanting the slogan, one of them took out a gem and opened the enchantment one by one. Aristophanes and others walked in one by one.
Talisa looked up, and there were some exquisite patterns carved on the white door. She recognized the sun, moon, and maple leaves, with gems of various colors inlaid on them, emitting a faint magical aura.
Aristophanes stretched out his palm covered by mystic energy to cover the door, and purple mystic energy poured into it. The relief on the door seemed to come to life, and then slowly and silently opened to both sides.
Talissa followed Aristophane into the building. She looked around and saw some magic runes faintly revealed on the surrounding walls.
Looking up, the whole hall illuminated by the cold white moonlight through the huge glass dome is unusually bright. In the deep pit directly opposite, there grows a symmetrical tree with ancient arcane symbols engraved all over its body, and its drooping branches. The light is overflowing, the light blue and lavender haze is looming in the air, and some purple fruits hang at the bottom, exuding a mysterious halo.
"Welcome to the Hall of Lineumoville, this is Akandall, the legendary tree of balance representing arcane and nature."
Talisa looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her and let out a sigh.
"As for the fruit of Akan'dor, I can give you one now, take it or use it for experimentation, in short, we will discuss it after you determine the effect, although I don't think it is necessary," Aristophane uses the mage Zhi’s hand took a piece of fruit and handed it to Talissa, "The Quel'dorei who are here now have all eaten for one round, and you have seen their situation. They have basically gotten rid of the addiction. harm."
The chief arcanist took the fruit of Akan'dor, which was still glowing with a purple halo, and some were not convinced that just such a small fruit could bring Xia'dorei back to life.
She collected the fruit solemnly, and then bowed to Aristophanes: "Thank you for your generosity, Your Excellency the Grand Magister, I will be grateful for your gift regardless of the outcome."
Aristophan waved his hand, and said somewhat self-deprecatingly: "I am also for the future of the elves, okay, let's not talk about this, let's go back."
On the south side of the central square of Lineumoville, some small buildings are scattered on it. Talissa, Aruin and Malga (female night son) are in a room looking at the table Purple fruit.
Alu stared at the fruit and asked directly: "Your Excellency Chief Arcanist, what are we waiting for? Why don't you just eat it?"
Looking at the somewhat anxious male Chateaurée, although Talisa was a little surprised by his emotions, she still explained: "Aruin, although Aristophane said that Quel'dorei has solved the addiction of the magic by eating it. Question, but according to the news that Malga has heard, the earliest batch of Quel'Dorei took the fruit only about a month and a half ago, so it is impossible to see whether the fruit will have sequelae or how it will affect the elves."
Then her expression became a little serious: "And the most important thing is that Akan'dor does not belong to Suramar, nor does it belong to the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, and even the so-called Farstrider Territory does not belong, but belongs to Aristophanes is unique to this great magister. If this fruit is really as he said, do you understand the meaning here?"
Aluin was a little confused, and Talisa sighed and continued to explain to him: "Don’t you think the situation here is strange? Although Aristophane contacted a group of Quel'Dorei mages, they were far more distant. The apprentices of the mage trained by the walker himself did not appear in the construction team belonging to Quel'Thalas at all, replaced by dwarves and human craftsmen. It is true that those construction teams may refuse his employment because they are too far away from Silvermoon City, but you Does it feel reasonable?"
The chief arcanist took a sip of the magic wine on the table: "So in the end where the great magi will go, we cannot predict. We must be cautious about the relationship between Suramar and him, if he and Quill If Salas breaks, should we choose him or the kingdom to the north? A little carelessness on these issues will lead to diplomatic tensions with the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, and even a break in trade. You must know that Quel'Thalas is now Su Rama’s largest importer of goods, our Chateaurée Silk and Starlight Rose are extremely popular."
Aluin didn't expect this little fruit to involve so many relationships, and there was a frustrated expression on his face: "Poor Orule..."
Only then did Talisa and Malga understand what the scouts were worried about. Malga poured a glass of magic wine for Aruin, and then comforted the Nightborne Rogue: "Aruin, it's okay, you don't need to Worry about your sister, as the scale of our deal with Quel'Thalas is getting bigger and bigger, a large amount of Quel'Thalas magic wine begins to flood into Suramar, which greatly reduces the difficulty for civilians to obtain magic wine."
"But according to my salary, I can barely afford the daily expenses, and then buy magic wine for Orule..." Aruin shook his head, took the glass and drank it, then stood up, "Your Excellency Talissa , I'm going to watch the night first."
After speaking, he turned and walked out, leaving only Thalyssa and Malga in the house.
"Your Excellency Chief Arcanist, what shall we do?" Malga asked quietly, a little nervously. She was just a fledgling winemaker, and she had no idea why Talissa chose her to be the attendant for this secret visit.
Talisa closed her eyes, tapped her fingers on the table lightly, and then asked a question that had nothing to do with the fruit: "Malga, what do you think of Quel'Thalas' magic wine? Compared to Suramar's magic wine how about it?"
"Huh?" The winemaker was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly, "I can only say that each has its own merits. My teacher had visited the largest winery in Quel'Thalas before and brought back a batch of products made in Quel'Thalas. The magic wine. Compared with the magic wine of Suramar, their magic wine tastes more sunny, not as long as ours, but it is also a special feature."
"Then can this fruit be brewed into wine?"
"You mean..."
"Yes, if we turn the fruits of Akan'dor into magic wine, and then purchase Suramar, will we avoid certain problems?" Talissa said, her eyes brightened.
"It takes a long time to study, Your Excellency Chief Arcanist," Malga was not so excited. She understood that it is very difficult to develop a new wine, not to mention that it has the effect of curing magic addiction. It was not as simple as Talissa thought.
"It's okay, Malga, I'll go to Aristophane to ask this question myself tomorrow." Talisa put away the fruit, "It's late, let's rest."
Early the next morning, Talissa went to the brand-new conference hall. Aristophanes’ apprentice Lucia took Talissa to a small reception room.
At this time, the wizard wizard was leading a few people in the hall next door looking at the terrain sand table made by Lor'themar and Sylvanas, studying the location of the outlet channel~EbookFREE.me~Aristophanes, follow this The topography is actually not necessary for the drainage channel," Monsa Guen said while standing on a stool, looking at the overlapping models, thinking for a while.
"why?"
"According to your calculations, it will take at least half a year to fill this deep stream without destroying the Irvine Forest water system," the dwarf pointed to the deep stream across the upwind path, "but according to the dwarf's experience , The canyons going this way generally have underground rivers, and you don’t need to worry about the flow of water at all. And according to our experience this time, even if the canyon is full, we still have time to open the mountains and repair the canals.
Aristophanes pondered for a while and clapped his hands: "Okay, then temporarily put aside the connection between the swamp and the upwind path, and focus on the construction of the surrounding buildings and environment."
When the task was arranged, everyone walked out of the hall, and Lucia leaned in front of Aristophane: "Teacher, Miss Talissa is already waiting next door."
"Okay, I'll go over, you help Sencelia sort out the meeting minutes."
"Yes!"
