"Your Majesty, the Pains family pays tribute to you." Although Hussein was at odds with the dark elves, the elf queen was not something he could express dissatisfaction with.
In terms of status, Olika's status is unmatched by any of the lords of the seven strongholds. After all, the predecessor of Blackstone Castle was the capital of the Great Elf Empire.
If you really want to count, there are only a few emperors of the Central Empire who can have the same status as Orika.
"Well, hello." Seeing Yi Cheng's face, Her Majesty nodded coldly as a salute.
Seeing Olika here, Yi Cheng suddenly thought of a good opportunity to help the rise of Blackstone Fortress, and if successful, then Blackstone Fortress would be bound to Xinri City.
Thinking of this, Yi Cheng immediately said to Olika: "Olika, I have a plan to implement, let's go to your palace and discuss it in detail."
Hussein and the merchants looked at Yi Cheng in surprise, only then did they realize that Yi Cheng actually called the elf queen by her name directly.
And the Queen doesn't seem to have any objections.
Chapter 240 Sales
Being able to directly call the queen by her name, it is obvious that Yi Cheng's position in the heart of the elf queen is not easy.
"Okay, I'll get someone to prepare it now." Olika said with a slight smile.
Yi Cheng turned around and shouted to Hussein and the others: "Everyone, today everyone will enjoy the treatment from the dark elf court banquet, everyone please follow me."
"Oh! That's great." Many people immediately cheered when they heard it. The Dark Elf Palace Banquet is an extremely rare treat.
It can be said that no one in the entire Seven Shields Alliance has enjoyed this kind of treatment. This extraordinary experience must be something they will show off with others in the future.
Soon, everyone followed Queen Olika to the Elven Palace.
Most of the precious ornaments in the palace were stolen by the Black Beast Mercenary Group, leaving only those statues, murals and arrangements that could not be taken away.
But this is also good, without the gold and jewelry decoration of the elf palace, but with a bit more majestic beauty in it.
Let people turn from luxury to its own beauty.
"Please take a seat." Olika took the first place, and Yicheng sat in the first seat on the left. This honor has always been enjoyed only by the highest ministers.
If it was private, Olika might let Yicheng sit in her seat, but in front of outsiders, she is still the queen of the dark elves.
Prestige should naturally be maintained, it would be bad for Yi Cheng to sit beside him.
Fortunately, Yi Cheng is not the kind of straight steel man, because he was dissatisfied with being placed in the position of courtier, he is very satisfied with Olika's current arrangement.
After the merchants took their seats one by one, the beautiful elf maids filed in and began to present fruits and fine wines.
The merchants looked at all this curiously. Dark elves are a hot commodity in the market, and one dark elf can get the same volume of gold.
But even so, the market is still in short supply, and it takes a few months for one to appear in the auction house, and it is either a half-elf or a slave resold by someone else's family.
Now that these orthodox dark elf girls are right in front of them, it's normal for them to take a few more glances.
After a round of drinking, Yi Cheng began to reveal his purpose.
"I think everyone is here to make money this time, and we at New Sun City are very happy to cooperate with you."
Yi Cheng put down the wine glass in his hand, reached out and took out a silver-gray pistol from his waist.
"In addition to the furniture and medicines that everyone already knows, we also have a powerful weapon, and that is the gun."
Yi Cheng showed everyone the pistol in his hand. This is the weapon he has been hiding on his body for self-defense, and it is also one of the types of firearms he plans to sell.
"Your Excellency Yicheng, the small piece of iron in your hand does not seem to have a sharp blade, nor does it have the thickness of a blunt weapon. Why do you say it is so powerful?"
A businessman in the seat curiously asked the questions in everyone's mind.
Indeed, judging from its appearance, this is just a piece of iron. If it is some kind of magic device, there must be magic fluctuations on it.
Yicheng laughed aloud, and said to Olika: "Olika, can someone prepare some ordinary jars and put them at the door?"
"Of course." Olika smiled and asked people to follow Yi Cheng's request.
"Everyone watch out, now I'm going to perform a show of smashing those ceramic jars from tens of meters away." Yi Cheng held a gun in his hand and dried palace fish in his mouth.
"Boom!" After a gunshot, there was a "splashing" sound of shattering.
Everyone looked at the jar that suddenly shattered in surprise.
"Could it be some kind of magic?" Suddenly someone opened his mouth and asked, and it seemed that this was the only reason that could explain it.
"It's not magic. Spells have fluctuations in magic power, even magic tools. Just now, His Excellency Yi Cheng's body and the weapon in his hand have no magic power fluctuations at all."
Hussein's face was solemn. This was the first time he had come into contact with firearms. This invisible and intangible thing gave him a strong deterrent.
Hussein is a middle-level junior mage of the wind system. Wind mages usually have good eyesight, and so does Hussein.
Hussein clearly saw a piece of the stone pillar behind after the gunshot was suddenly broken from tens of meters away.
The destructive power that can collapse a stone pillar is undoubtedly not to be underestimated. The human body is weak, and the bodies of all professionals except knights are fragile.
It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of destructive power cannot be resisted even by high-level magic shields.
But then the performance of this weapon shocked them even more. Yi Cheng pulled the trigger one after another, and the sound of gunshots continued.
The sound of jars breaking was also heard one after another, and this weapon can still fire continuously!All the merchants present were stunned.
"Huh~" After firing a clip, Yi Cheng blew on the still smoking muzzle, reloaded the bullet and closed the safety.
"Have you seen it? Needless to say, everyone can see the power of this weapon. The most important thing is that this weapon can be used by even the weakest woman."
"It's the best thing to use to protect our own safety. After all, everyone knows that doing business is difficult, and there will always be jealous people who want to hurt us."
"With it, you don't have to be afraid even if you face several gangsters in the future." Yi Cheng tried hard to sell.
"Your Excellency Yicheng, what is its price? I want to buy a self-defense weapon for myself and my family." A businessman immediately wanted to get this powerful weapon.
"The price of a pistol is ten silver coins, which is very favorable, but the price of its bullets is a bit expensive, mainly because the production process is very difficult, and a pistol bullet costs one silver coin."
Yi Chengshi opened his mouth. He planned to sell pistols at a higher price. After all, they were aimed at the upper class. As for shotguns, they would be cheaper because they were for military use and had to be purchased in large quantities.
"Great, I want ten pistols and a thousand rounds of ammunition." The businessman immediately shouted happily, ten pistols and a thousand rounds of ammunition are only eleven gold coins.
And his family property is as much as 10,000+ gold coins, so he really doesn't care about such a little money.
"Your Excellency Yi Cheng, I also want to..." Once someone took the lead, the others immediately followed.
Naturally, no one would be reluctant to give up such a cheap and practical thing.
In this way, Yi Cheng successfully sold his pistol, and then took the opportunity to let everyone know about shotguns.
As a violent melee weapon, naturally many people want to equip their personal guards with this kind of killer weapon.
There are also many people who buy it.
Chapter 240 Two Come and Obtain My Chastity
After successfully opening up the sales of firearms, Yi Cheng felt much more at ease, and the subsequent negotiations on furniture and medicines were also successfully completed.
Yicheng will give them a preferential price, but they must guarantee to purchase in sufficient quantity.
Yi Cheng gnawed a juicy fruit, and he suggested to everyone: "The distance between the fourth fortress and Xinri City is relatively far, and the transportation cost to and fro may be relatively high."
"But I have a way to greatly reduce the cost of shipping." Yi Cheng's words aroused everyone's interest.
Indeed, it takes hundreds of kilometers to travel from the fourth fortress to Xinri City, and there are many mountains and forests on the road, which is a big trouble for the transportation team.
Of course, if His Excellency Yi Cheng can think of a way to solve it, then it is definitely welcome.
"That's right. Everyone has experienced this method. It's very fast, and the cargo volume is large enough." Yi Cheng raised his glass and said.
"It's a train!" Someone immediately responded.
"That's right, it's the train. If you use the train for transportation, you only need to pay a small amount of gold coins, and the cost must be much less than that of mules and horses."
"And the road is very safe. My trains are equipped with soldiers. If there are robbers attacking, my soldiers can guarantee the safety of the cargo." Yi Cheng said confidently.
Ever since New Sun City opened up the railway in Rose Town, for safety reasons, Yi Cheng has arranged a squad of soldiers on each train, equipped with automatic rifles, and recently added an extra heavy machine gun.
The firepower is very strong. It can be said that as long as there are no senior magicians or above, the train is safe.
"But didn't your train just arrive at Blackstone Castle?" Earl Hussein was a little puzzled. Could it be that he planned to build another railway from Blackstone Castle to the fortress?
"That's right, Blackstone Fort is the end point, but the distance between Blackstone Fortress and the fourth fortress is very close. The transportation team can complete the transportation task in one to two days at most."
"It will take two full weeks from New Sun City to the Fourth Fortress, especially now that the ground is covered with heavy snow, making transportation even more difficult."
"That's right, it's indeed much closer from Blackstone Castle to our fortress." Someone agreed with Yi Cheng's point of view.
"But... what about Blackstone Castle?" Hussein looked at Olika. If the goods pass through Blackstone Fort, then Queen Olika's approval must be obtained.
Hussein was a little worried that Queen Olika would refuse or that the lion would open up to them.
Olika immediately stated that she agreed to Blackstone Fort as a transfer point for goods. Olika is not a fool, if Blackstone Fort becomes a transfer point for goods between New Sun City and the Fourth Fortress.
Then the merchants of the fourth fortress must invest in the fourth fortress. After all, the caravans will inevitably have expenses. Every year, a large number of caravans just need to buy accommodation and food.
Yi Cheng, he was helping herself, Olika was sweet in her heart, Black Rock Fort was in a difficult time, Yi Cheng's decision helped her a lot.
In the future, as long as it is well managed, the prosperity of Blackstone Castle will be just around the corner.
The thought of Yi Cheng giving up such a large profit for herself made Olika feel even more sorry.
After the meeting was successfully concluded, everyone was very satisfied with the harvest, and then Queen Olika gave full play to the spirit of hospitality of the host.
Olika has equipped each guest with a guide, so that they can play in Blackstone Fortress conveniently.
As the capital of the Elven Empire, Black Rock Castle has a very large area, and there are many beautiful scenery. After all, the elves are full of beauty.
After the guests left, only Yi Cheng, Olika and Glentis who was guarding Yi Cheng were left in the hall.
Without anyone else, Olika put down her airs as a queen, and happily ran to sit with Yi Cheng.
"Eat grapes." Olika deliberately took a bunch of fresh honey grapes and fed them to Yi Cheng, and she carefully peeled off the skins of the grapes.
"Well, it tastes good. By the way, where do these fruits come from?" Yi Cheng asked curiously while enjoying the queen's service with peace of mind.
The fruit trees in the winter have lost all their leaves, not to mention fruiting or flowering.
Although Xinri City now has greenhouse technology, those are basically used to grow vegetables, and they have never heard of ones that can grow fruits.
"These are all in the palace orchard. It is a very magical place, surrounded by high walls, with a magic circle on top, which can block hail or heavy snow."
