MC's career as foreign lord

Chapter 119: Sky-high Price Black Tea

"So… these guys are really the legends of the Elven race?" Another day passed. After Zhou Ren thoroughly repaired the monster-spawning tower and even created a simple item classification system, some strange anomalies occurred.

Just like when he first encountered that mercenary group, how could this group of legendary powerhouses, who looked like children, listen to O'Halloran's advice? They couldn't wait to stick their faces to the barrier of this territory.

Zhou Ren held Shia's hand, their relationship having only progressed a little. After seeing the princess could cross the barrier unharmed, these legends went crazy and started pouring in.

But this was not the territory when he had just established the barrier. At that time, the territory's rejection method was actually somewhat similar to forced rejection, followed by teleportation.

Now, of course, it was different. He had set it to directly block, so now there were already five great knight imprints on that transparent barrier.

"Giggle!" Leah clapped her hands and laughed, watching those people crash into the wall with the two big guys beside her, and curiously ran to the front to reach out her hand, wanting to pull them in.

All the legendary powerhouses recognized this little girl. As the great elder's grand-disciple, the little girl had almost won everyone's love, so they also grinned and reached for the little girl's hand, only to get stuck next to the territory and unable to move.

"Um… if I pull you, Leah won't be able to come in either!" she said, letting go of these guys' hands, then running back in herself and immediately jumping onto Raikou's head.

At first, when the little girl rode Raikou and ran around, Zhou Ren was startled. After all, Raikou was a mature lightning elemental being, whose combat power was second only to a legend.

Moreover, this little guy had eaten so many good things here with Zhou Ren, and wandered around all day, absorbing an unknown amount of elemental aura, even his size was half larger than his kind.

So, usually he was always small, but after growing up, he was always a simple and honest giant lightning bolt!

This meant that the lightning power on his body was very terrifying. If ordinary people touched him, they would probably turn into charcoal in the next instant. It was nothing for the little girl to sit on him as a mount, but what if something went wrong by accident…

But seeing that Shia didn't react, he didn't say anything. Raikou was originally an elemental being that the Elven Princess had signed a contract with at a great cost, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?

Then he saw the little girl jump down from Raikou's body, relying on the slime boots on her feet, and started bouncing in the high sky, cheering every time she bounced.

"Hiss!" Zhou Ren felt a bit of a toothache looking at this scene. He didn't know what to say. Why could this little girl play so happily in such a serious situation? What was the problem?

He had no choice but to turn his attention back to the territory gate. Seeing that they couldn't break through, the legendary powerhouses began to discuss at the gate, seeing if there were any other methods.

"Alright, Mosa, bring them all in!" Zhou Ren said. These people were idle anyway. They would be leaving the grassland in a few days, and they still needed to stay here for a few days. Since they were bored, they just looked around for things to see.

Then, as they touched around, they touched such a place with a rich elemental aura, and everyone had great curiosity about it.

With Zhou Ren's consent, the air wall of the territory gate slowly opened, bringing in the 20 legendary powerhouses one by one.

But with 20 people, he didn't plan to entertain them one by one, or when would he finish entertaining them? He decided to let Mosa and Jim cooperate to hold a simple auction, which would also serve as a preview for future auctions.

After all, in two months, he would be opening the official auction. At that time, many races on the continent would come, and having some experience would save him from being in a hurry in the future.

So he and Shia were still sitting at the highest point of the aerial farm, watching Mosa take them to the back of his house, where he simply placed 20 chairs and took out some welcome items.

"It's really simple and crude enough!" Mosa's welcome item was very normal, just 20 cups of green tea. Now his tea drying factory had started a new expansion. A lich and a skeleton had directly turned the mountain behind into a huge tea drying factory.

In order to work, they even stopped the underground excavation work and directly sent 50 skeletons to flatten the back mountain and make a very iconic square 2-story building.

In order to prevent the rain from wetting the tea leaves, they also creatively used glass panels on the roof. Glass panels could transmit light well and required fewer materials, but still achieve the effect of drying tea, which could be regarded as a very good use of materials.

The only bad thing was that the glass panels were not placed horizontally. These glasses were re-laid by them after melting them with fire.

Zhou Ren even wanted to praise them, even without his guidance, they should be able to handle the affairs of this world properly with mutual help and research.

Because of the existence of the Tree of Life, he didn't lack plants now, and even specially made an underground warehouse for storing various foods. Even tea leaves, with the help of multiple tea farms, had become very abundant.

So at this time, he was able to take out green tea to entertain guests.

What surprised Zhou Ren, of course, was not this, but the way Jim, the skeleton, entertained guests. He went to the monster-spawning tower and took 20 bones, and then gave one to each person.

According to Mosa's translation, it was, "Take the bones, you can exchange them if any bones are broken in the future!"

Um… it's… it's very reasonable!

The little skeleton's actions stunned everyone present. The legendary powerhouses had also seen necromancers, but who had ever seen such a lively skeleton?

"Giggle!" Shia laughed like crazy beside him. "Jim is so interesting. Where did you find such an interesting little guy?"

Zhou Ren spread his hands helplessly, "This little guy has his own set of principles, I'm also very helpless!"

He had taught Jim many times, but this little skeleton stubbornly followed his own set of rules. Anyway, he would give you what he thought was the best, and you would be embarrassed not to accept it, after all, how sincere and healthy the information transmitted from that soul fire was.

The two shrugged at each other, and then continued to watch the scene below.

After receiving the bones, the 20 legends were also a little surprised. They didn't know what the human arm-sized bones were for.

However, the little skeleton in front of them was indeed very enthusiastic and didn't seem to be trying to trick them. This made them hesitate about what to do with the bones.

Mosa said with a smile, "If everyone feels a bit awkward, you can put the bones away for now and study them later. If you don't feel awkward, why not dip the bones in a little tea?"

His words gave the people in front of him a way out. After taking a sip of the tea, they also understood the feeling of the so-called Cloud Body Tea.

All the legendary figures could directly experience the mysteries of the elements. They wouldn't be like ordinary advanced professionals who needed to go through various tests to understand the tea's effects.

At the first moment of entry, all the legendary figures closed their eyes, feeling the tranquility brought by the tea and the slight sense of pleasure that came from their bodies.

This was the feedback sensation brought about by the abundant magic power in the food. And when they grabbed the bones in their hands again at this moment, they could feel something special through the power of keen perception given to them by the tea.

"Actually, tea has another effect, which is to maximize your perception while condensing your spirit!" The beauty sat beside him, and Zhou Ren naturally had to show off a little.

Shea listened very carefully, holding a blank book in her hand to take notes.

"Once the perception is amplified, you can feel the aura of decay and rot contained in the bones. This energy can be guided out to attack, or you can try to reverse it and grind it into bone powder!"

Zhou Ren said. Of course, this was not a theory he had researched, but came from a kind of reversal theory of the lich.

The idea is that the bones themselves are the final product of undead creatures. This section of bone often contains the life essence of a skeleton's entire life, and at this moment, it will completely shrink and become the essence of death.

After such essence is ground into bone powder, it will be completely reversed, thereby releasing it and turning it into a special energy that can accelerate the growth of plant life.

This lich seemed to always want to find an explanation for the changes in these worlds that could be answered with the knowledge of this world, and he really found it.

The newest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Wen Xue Ba!

It had a bit of a "magician" feel to it.

Seeing that he had even built his own magic laboratory next to the hut, connected to the basement, and had specially dug a cave for himself, where he hoarded all kinds of basic materials, Zhou Ren felt very wonderful.

If Mosa really found the relationship between the items he possessed and this world, wouldn't it mean that this knowledge had advanced a big step forward? Would he find some unknown world coordinates?

He looked at the girl in front of him, who had seriously raised the book in her hand and was recording something, and was a little curious.

"What are you recording? Are you recording the functions of these things?"

"Of course not. I'm recording the estimated value of these things. After I go back, I can give it to the Queen Mother so that they can give your things a clear valuation, so as to avoid us discussing prices all the time in the future!"

Shea said. She thought very deeply. This matter must be done, otherwise, without a fixed amount between exchanges, they would argue for a long, long time.

This pricing will certainly not have a conclusion, or even say that before all the things really reach Zhou Ren, all the prices are just a reference.

But Shea knew that she should do this thing. She needed to add a controller to Zhou Ren and the elves, so that both sides would have a measure when negotiating with each other.

Zhou Ren nodded, "Let me see what price you have set for the tea?"

He was also very curious. In the worldview of the elves, how much would his things be priced?

Shea handed over the book. There were only a few items priced on it. The rest were mostly written with the names of the items and the way they were used, as well as their functions, but the price was never written.

"Elf fruit, two hundred gold coins each!" Zhou Ren read, "If it's 200 gold coins, it's about 20,000 yuan each, which seems quite reasonable!"

"Cloud Body Tea, 2,000 gold coins a cup, lasts for 8 hours..." Zhou Ren was stunned. He only knew that it would last for half a day, but he didn't expect it to last a whole day? That's really an exaggeration.

2,000 gold coins is a very high value. You can buy a slightly lower-level staff. Then he saw the data of the third item, which required a high level.

"Black tea, 200,000 gold coins a cup..." He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and carefully counted the 0s above.

"200,000 gold coins... Isn't that a bit too much?" It was clearly the same tea. Black tea only had one more process than green tea, and it didn't take too much time, but it directly increased by 100 times. Isn't that too exaggerated?

Shea shook her head, "This is an improvement in the level of life! If I am a sub-dragon, but I am still a little short of being able to purify my blood and become a real dragon, and I can complete the purification by drinking this cup of tea, do you think this price is reasonable?"

"If you say that..." Zhou Ren said, he seemed to suddenly understand why Corellon had this attitude towards him. As a main god, he had been down for much longer than his wife. He originally thought it was the difference in power, but now that he thought about it, it was clearly the difference between that cup of black tea.

"By analogy, if a god is a little bit short of being able to advance to the next level, and drinks such a cup of tea..." Zhou Ren knew he couldn't think about it. Thinking about it again would cause trouble, and big trouble.

Shea looked at him with a smile, "Do you think my pricing is reasonable now?"

"Reasonable, too reasonable. You are simply my financial expert!" Zhou Ren raised his two thumbs, making the little girl blush a little.

But their warm moment didn't last long before they heard exclamations and a giggling laugh below.

Zhou Ren looked up. He saw Leah riding on Raichu, jumping into the middle of so many legendary powerhouses, scaring the many legendary powerhouses who were still thinking about the effects of the tea.

One of them even directly crushed the bone in his hand, and a strong aura of death exploded, instantly dyeing it, causing his originally young face to decay all of a sudden.

"That's bad!" Zhou Ren said.
