They emptied their gla.s.ses in one gulp.

Ji Chen noticed the look in Miligass eyes, occasionally lingering on the Merfabric in the wooden box. Understanding this, he put down his wine gla.s.s and smiled.

Amba.s.sador, we are friends, arent we?

Of course, if someone like you isnt a friend, then I dont have any friends at all!

In that case, let this Deep Sea Merfabric be a gift between friends. But wait, Alice, bring me another one. Humans have a saying, Good things come in pairs. So, two pieces are enough to seal our friends.h.i.+p!

Upon hearing this, even Miligas couldnt help but show a pleasant surprise.

He personally poured another gla.s.s of wine for Ji Chen, and once again, they both drank it down. Lord Ji Chen, you will forever be a friend of the elves!

This amba.s.sador had clearly spent a long time in human society, learning many of their customs and culture, which made Ji Chen feel as if he were back on Earth, reminiscing about the days of mingling with clients and toasting to deals.

Miligas, content with the agreement reached, joyfully clinked gla.s.ses with Ji Chen and continued to drink gla.s.s after gla.s.s of fine wine. It wasnt until nightfall that they finally stopped, both slightly tipsy.

Alice helped the slightly flushed Ji Chen out of the reception hall and onto the carriage, a.s.sisting him to the carriage window.

Amba.s.sador, theres no need for further farewells.

Similarly unsteady on his feet from drinking, Miligas nodded upon hearing this and said in a somewhat slurred voice, Then, Lord Ji Chen, may you have a smooth journey. Well have another drink together next time!

Of course, the kind where we dont return until were completely intoxicated!

The carriage slowly started moving, its wheels creaking on the stone-paved road. Under the gaze of many elves, it exited the gates of the Elven Emba.s.sy and disappeared around a street corner.

At that moment, Miligas, who had been swaying unsteadily, suddenly straightened up. His previously unfocused gaze now gleamed with sharpness.

Amba.s.sador Miligas, this human is not simple, said Brett, the military officer.

Of course, hes not simple. A territory so far overseas couldnt possibly produce so many rare items, Miligas replied.

Im not referring to going to his territory, but to his abilities. Brett shook his head, his brows furrowing. His strength is not to be underestimated.

From him, I sense a pressure and magical fluctuations akin to a mountain, no, as vast as the boundless sea.

I have a vague feeling that if 1 were to face him head-on, within twenty rounds, Id be defeated.

Miligas, hearing these words, was greatly surprised. This military officer, Brett, was a Purple-Rare Tier hero. In the war between the elves and the Polar Troll Horde, he had remained unfazed in the face of an entire army of Polar Trolls, leading his troops to slay thousands of trolls and achieving remarkable feats.

To make such a strong individual say that they couldnt last more than twenty rounds against this human and give such a high evaluation.

So, how strong is this Lord Ji Chen?

Miligas fell into silence for a moment. He was a civilian and didnt possess exceptional combat abilities, so he couldnt perceive these things.

Anyway, today weve made favorable contact with him and reached an agreement beneficial to both sides. This is a good start for us.

Furthermore, judging by his words and actions, he seems to have goodwill towards us. As long as nothing unexpected happens, our relations.h.i.+p with the Crown of the Ocean will only improve, which is in the elves interest.

Brett nodded without hesitation. As long as it served the elves interests, everything was negotiable. But if it harmed the elves interests, even if the enemy were incredibly powerful, he would not hesitate to counteract it.

Well, then Ill go and rest for a bit. This humans capacity for alcohol is quite impressive. 1 nearly pa.s.sed out.

Miligas rubbed his head, his face showing a hint of fatigue, but his eyes were bright.

Thinking about the two pieces of Deep Sea Merfabric that Ji Chen had gifted him, his mood soared.

This time, on Her Majestys birthday, he would definitely make a splash in front of so many elven n.o.bles and colleagues!

Inside the carriage.

Once they had turned the corner, Ji Chen immediately sobered up, without a trace of his previous drunken appearance.

Of course, he had been pretending earlier. If he could be knocked out by just a few gla.s.ses of wine, it would underestimate his experiences as a top drinker back on Earth.

Sitting in the carriage, he drew open the curtains, enjoying the cool night breeze.

Recalling the many details of his conversation with Miligas just now, Ji Chen thought about the goals he had achieved during this visit to the Elven Emba.s.sy.

Not only had he successfully sold this batch of precious jungle wood, premium coffee beans, and other specialties, but he had also secured long-term, stable trade agreements with the Elves.

As expected, the luxury-loving Elves couldnt resist the allure of the Merfabric and immediately reached agreements on the spot.

One piece of Tier One Merfabric could exchange for a whopping three thousand units of rare resources. With the monthly production of Merfabric, he could acquire 180,000 rare resources.

In contrast, a whole s.h.i.+pment of weapons and equipment had only fetched a price of three thousand units of rare resources. One piece of Merfabric was worth as much as an entire s.h.i.+pload of weapons and equipment. Witnessing such an imbalanced trade, especially at a price the Elves found to be low, was truly remarkable.

But he could handle more of such deals!

Then, Ji Chen had a sudden recollection. He searched through his backpack and retrieved the Travis artifact with an unknown purpose. Inside the carriage, the crystal lamps light illuminated it, revealing its dazzling golden hue and intricate, enigmatic patterns that gave it an air of mystique..
