Rise of the Plants

"What do they want to do?" Chi Nan couldn't understand the flag language because he had never learned it. What I use here is direct sound transmission, but after all, many people in the army have learned it, so they can still understand it.

"Sir, the people in front said they were from the Holy Dragon Empire Coast Patrol and asked us to stop for inspection."

Chi Nan frowned when he heard this: "Accept inspection? How arrogant. Tell them that we will not accept inspection, we are just passing by." Although the Holy Dragon Empire is powerful, Chi Nan is not willing to show his cowardice.

There are only five airships, but there are nearly two hundred airships on my side, and there are more than a hundred excluding transport ships. If I still listen to them, then I will not be able to hold my head high in front of the Holy Dragon Empire in the future.

"General, what should we do? They won't accept inspection. Should we continue to get closer?"

Seeing that the airships in front had stopped, but they were vaguely aiming their guns at themselves. Even if they were very confident in their airships, they did not dare to provoke them too much.

The leader thought for a while and said again: "Let them explain their purpose, otherwise we will report it."

The enemy's strength was unknown, and they did not dare to act rashly. The Holy Dragon Empire is powerful, but what if the opponent is pushed too hard and the opponent resists? Life is yours, that's all.

After the other party softened, Chi Nan's expression also relaxed. Speaking of which, at this juncture, Chi Nan really didn't want to get into trouble with the Holy Dragon Empire. Now that the other party has relented, he cannot continue to be tough. That kind of guy with unlimited arrogance seems very refreshing, but such a person will die quickly.

"Tell them that we want to trade with the Half-Elf Empire, and this time we will open a shipping route. By the way, tell them at the same time that we have been invited to participate in the Forest Banquet."

I couldn't keep this matter secret in the first place, so I might as well just say it outright.

When the person on the other side saw the information coming from here, he couldn't help but frown. "Does it have something to do with the Half-Elf Empire, and you are actually invited to participate in the Forest Banquet?" They still know what the Forest Banquet is.

Only half-elves will be invited, and if they are not from the empire, they must make a certain contribution.

"General, what are we going to do now?" If you are related to the empire, you can't mess around.

After thinking for a while, the general said: "Since it is related to the Half-Elf Empire, we can't act randomly. Otherwise, the Half-Elf Empire will blame it, and there is a high possibility that we will be sacrificed. But, they are really Half-elf?"

The young man next to him said quickly: "It should be right. The person who built this kind of airship in that territory is a half-elf, a half-elf lord." The young man already took out a report from somewhere. It looks like it was delivered recently. After a few glances, the general generally believed what Chi Nan said.

After all, there was no need to deceive them about the Holy Dragon Empire in this situation. Although it is not a provocation to pass by the coast of the Holy Dragon Empire rashly, it will still make some people feel disgusted.

But an old man next to him suddenly said: "General, they just said they were going to trade with the Half-Elf Empire, which means they still have some good things. Why don't we ask clearly, and we can get some in the future. After all, the kingdom here is still dominated by humans. Yes, we cannot let the half-elf empire take the lead."

"Hmph, it's just a small place. I really think that I have something that can attract the attention of the empire. I think it's probably because they are bragging." Many people looked disapproving.

"Even if there are no other things, this kind of airship is not bad. There are no magic runes on the surface of this airship. It can fly so fast just by itself. This is a good product in itself."

A man scanned the airship ahead with a pair of strange eyes, which were also a product of alchemy.

"That's right. If that's the case, let's convey our thoughts and ask them what they are transporting."

Is it also the responsibility of the customs to inspect the goods? As for whether Chi Nan will hide anything, this is a tacit understanding between both parties. Originally, there was a huge difference in strength between the two sides, so sometimes it was not unthinkable to let each other go.

The corner of Chi Nan's mouth curled up slightly: "It seems that our goods have aroused the thoughts of people like the Holy Dragon Empire. It would be good to do business with them. They are not dangerous items anyway." Chi Nan basically uses them for selling. Things can be said to be a kind of luxury goods in other countries, luxuries that have little impact on oneself.

"Then do we really want them to come up for inspection?" a guard whispered.

Chi Nan shook his head and said: "No, of course not, that will only make them think that we are afraid of them. But we can give them some samples, tell them the specific functions, and let them check it themselves."

"Speaking of which, being able to do business with the Holy Dragon Empire is also an unexpected blessing. I didn't expect it at the beginning." Before, Chi Nan only thought of avoiding these empires and not wanting to fight with them.

But now Chi Nan has changed his mind. It seems that doing business with the empire is not a bad thing. Although it will attract their attention, as long as he shows a certain strength or involves other empires, it will also make them scruple. . This will then form a relationship of interest restraint and buy yourself enough time.

Moreover, if there is no way to find gold-level plants in the Half-Elf Empire this time, they can also be obtained through transactions with the Empire. Not all high-level plants are valuable.

Chi Nan has known this for a long time. Many of the silver-level plants in my hands now are useless to me, let alone to other people. Plants are just more unreliable than animals.

The two sides quickly completed the communication, and finally an airship flew over from behind. With the soldiers on both sides alert to each other, Chi Nan delivered some samples to them. I believe these things will soon attract the attention of many nobles.

Not to mention other things, it is the kind of stamina beans that can directly and harmlessly replenish physical strength without limit, which is a huge temptation for soldiers. "Okay, let's keep walking. We should be able to receive news when we come back."

Chi Nan will not stay here to waste time. "Send a few messenger airships back to inform the territory of what's going on here, so that the territory can prepare. Just wait until the caravan from the Holy Dragon Empire arrives and follow the normal trading mode.
