Chapter 40 [It doesn't seem right(1/2)

While Chen Daolin was still in a daze, Ge Yan said quickly: "Of course I can't carry 100,000 gold coins with me."

After thinking about it, he said to Chen Daolin: "Wait a moment."

He stood up, turned around and left, and walked into a tent behind the carriage. The two men who were originally practicing swords around him immediately came over and stood outside the tent to guard him.

After a moment, Ge Yan walked out again and came to Chen Daolin. He held a small bag in his hand, untied the rope in front of Chen Daolin, and poured out the things inside.

I saw four thumb-sized gems rolling out from the mouth of this bag.

Ge Yan held it in his hand, approached Chen Daolin, and smiled faintly: "Please look at me, please!"

Under the reflection of the bonfire, Ge Yan's face seemed to be shining, but the things in his palm were even more shiny and seductive. Ge Yan said seriously: "These four high-quality golden wire fire diamonds are good things I received from other tribes on this trip. This golden wire fire diamond is already very rare, and it is almost the same as the rare one. The size of each piece is evenly symmetrical. This is even more difficult! If this thing is sold on the market, its value will never be less than 100,000 gold coins! If you are willing, I will use these four golden wire fire diamonds to hit your sword. How about it?"

Chen Daolin looked at the golden fire drill in Ge Yan's palm, and looked at the moving luster reflected by the bonfire, and couldn't help but breathe quickly.

But soon, Chen Daolin calmed down. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Geyan, I naturally believe you. You said that this golden wire fire diamond is worth 100,000 yuan, but I believe it is still more than 100,000 yuan! But, it is like a mountain, and I know nothing about this kind of jewelry. Even if I give this thing, I have to find a way to take action. Then I have to make a big circle again..."

Ge Yan was stunned, suddenly laughed, took back his hand, and said, "Since that's the case... I'll write you a contract. You take the contract and return to the Roland Empire. You can withdraw 100,000 gold coins from the Tulip Workshop General Account in the imperial capital. The gold tickets of my Tulip Family are unconditional in all parts of the Roland Empire!"

I'm sorry, is this a check?

Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.

To be honest, he is still wandering around this frozen forest now. He doesn't even know where the gate is opened. Who knows if he has time and chance to go to the main account of the Tulip Family Workshop in the imperial capital?

If you write a check of 100,000 gold coins, it will be useless if I can't cash in.

However, he knew that he could not blame this Ge Yan. The other party's bid was already very sincere - if it was piled up in front of him, it would be enough to kill many people! Who would have taken such a pile of gold coins to run around with such a large pile of gold coins?

But the problem is, what Brother Darling wants is hard currency. You issue a gold invoice for me, saying that it can be exchanged in the Roland Empire and used as money... But I want to go back to my real world!

These two conditions were available to Ge Yan. Chen Daolin hesitated for a moment and said, "That... let me think about this."

Ge Yan couldn't help feeling a little unhappy when he heard this. He frowned and said, "Do you want to go back on your word?"

"Of course not." Chen Daolin laughed and said, "I just want to think about how to trade. Don't worry, Brother Ge Yan. If you are worried that I will regret it, this sword will be placed here first. I will come to ask you for money when I have decided tomorrow. Whether to want the golden wire fire diamond or the golden ticket you have issued, I will talk about it tomorrow."

When Ge Yan heard this, his face suddenly turned calm and gave Chen Daolin a thumbs up and said, "Okay, you are happy to do business! You can put the sword worth 100,000 here, are you not afraid that I will swallow it?"

Chen Daolin laughed: "I think Brother Ge Yan is definitely not such a person."

In fact, he thought to himself: I can't beat you, but if you really want to be evil, it's useless even if I get the sword back. Besides, with Lan Lan here, I think the Tulip family members are embarrassed to slander my money.

With this sword deal, the two seemed to be much more intimate. Ge Yan took out the wine and drank a few glasses together.

The wine in this world was beyond Chen Daolin's expectations: he had read many novels and stories that traveled through different worlds, and they all said that in these ancient worlds, the brewing skills were backward, and the alcohol concentration of the wine brewed was very low, at most similar to beer, rice wine and so on in the real world.

But after taking a sip of the wine Ge Yan took out, Chen Daolin felt like a ball of fire in his mouth! A fire thread flowed along his throat and into his chest and abdomen!

What a strong wine!

Chen Daolin's face changed, and Ge Yan smiled proudly: "Haha! What do you think of this 'hero blood', a specialty of our Tulip family?"

Chen Daolin breathed a long sigh and couldn't help but sigh: "What a strong wine!"

"Yes, this is a strong wine produced by my unique secret technique of the Tulip family. It is the only one in the mainland! We are with us. It is cold in winter in the north, so you can keep the cold after drinking a few sips. And my family has a more traditional way. If you suffer from external injuries, you will use this wine to wipe the wound first. It is said that this method can prevent the wound from rotting."

Well, this must be the ancestor of the Tulip Family...that time traveler taught them!

Chen Daolin thought to himself.

Unfortunately, although the wine was good, the dinner was a little light.

The elves do not eat meat. At present, in this veterinary tribe, they have to give up meat food in order to show respect for the traditions of the elves. This dinner is just a soup made from a pot of radish and mushrooms.

Chen Daolin drank two big bowls, then stood up and said goodbye to Ge Yan.

Ge Yan immediately got up and gave him a gift, and took more than ten steps. Seeing that Chen Daolin was about to leave, Ge Yan suddenly whispered: "Brother, wait, I have a few words to give him."

"Oh?" Chen Daolin stopped.

Ge Yan smiled faintly, glanced at the leather bag that Chen Daolin was carrying, and said, "If I guessed well, a sword like the one I just sold to me, you should have more than this one in your hand, right?"

Chen Daolin was already a little drunk and had a fever, but when he heard this, his heart suddenly sank, instantly calmed down, and looked at Ge Yan vigilantly.

Although he had tried his best to be careful, he was an otaku in his early twenties and had been in school in the modern world. Although this Geyan was an indigenous person from this other world, he traveled around the world and did such business operations. I don’t know how many people he had met and how many things he had encountered. How vicious his eyes were? Compared to him, Chen Daolin was so tender. No matter how careful he was, he was showing his strength at this moment!

(Sure enough!) When Ge Yan saw Chen Daolin's expression, he immediately confirmed that he had guessed correctly!

In fact, he was just a test, but this time he was a coincidence.

Chen Daolin subconsciously took a step back, frowned and looked at Ge Yan, and said, "Brother, what does this mean?"

Although there is still one dagger, Chen Daolin doesn't want to sell it anymore - he wants to give this dagger to Lanlan.

"Nothing." Ge Yan smiled faintly and said, "I'm looking at you, brother, and I'm afraid that if you don't think about it carefully, you will make a mistake and make yourself."

"...what does it mean?" Chen Daolin frowned.

"It's very simple." Ge Yan raised his head first, looked around carefully, and confirmed that there was no one nearby, then lowered his voice and said, "I'm just worried that you will have the idea of ​​selling such a sword to the elves."

"..." Chen Daolin was stunned and frowned at Ge Yan: "Is it okay to sell it to the elf...?"

"Of course not." Ge Yan looked solemn and said seriously: "My ancestor of the Tulip Family said that if he is not my race, his heart will be different! Although my Roland Empire has a harmonious relationship with the elves, there was a big war a hundred years ago! If we look at the future, if we are enemies or friends in the future, who can tell clearly? Although the imperial law does not prohibit us chambers of commerce from doing business with the elves, these weapons and metal minerals are on the list of banned sales!"

Chen Daolin was stunned, but he didn't expect this.

"The elves have outstanding magical talents and are born warriors who practice magic and martial arts, but their weakness lies in their weapons and equipment. You must know that there are no metal mines in the forest, and the elves themselves are not good at metallurgical skills. For our human empire, the rules have been set since the ancestors of our Tulip Family were in power. Any merchant group in the Roland Empire traded the elves, all weapons and iron minerals were in the ranks of special bans! If you trade weapons with the elves, unless there is a special sale decree signed by the empire! Otherwise, if you dare to smuggle weapons and the transaction amount exceeds one thousand gold coins, it will be a serious crime of raiding the family!"

A thousand gold coins will be raided and destroyed?

Chen Daolin thought about it... One hundred thousand gold coins are enough to be beheaded a hundred times.

"I will naturally remember your reminder." Chen Daolin smiled, nodded at Ge Yan, and then turned around and left.

Martial Arts Embargo...

This was something I didn't expect before. But Ge Yan said it well. After all, it was two different races. They fought hard more than a hundred years ago. Although they are peaceful now, God knows whether there will be another war in the future. No matter what, that sentence is correct: if you are not a race, your heart will be different!

It’s okay to trade other things, but it’s a correct measure to include strategic materials such as weapons in the ban on sale.

But...it's all my business.

Chen Daolin disdained: I am not from the Roland Empire, and I have no intention of hang out in this Roland Empire. After making money, I will go back to the real world to go to the real world for free.

No matter what your life or death.

With this idea, Chen Daolin returned to the tree house.

When he went back, Lan Lan was sitting on the treetops.

Chen Daolin stood under the tree, raised his head, and saw Lanlan sitting there, her long legs swaying in the air, and Chen Daolin was shaking in his heart.

At this time, the bright moon was coming, and under the moonlight, the blue face was as quiet as water, and it was quiet.

Chen Daolin stood under the tree, but for a moment he was stunned.

Suddenly... the idea of ​​returning to the real world to be free and easy became contradictory.

If you go back... Lanlan, what should I do?

...

He was in a daze, but Lan Lan had already lowered her head to see Chen Daolin. She jumped and her body fell down lightly, falling in front of Chen Daolin.

Lan Lan looked at Chen Daolin's face and frowned and said, "Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

Before Chen Daolin could speak, Lan Lan came over and sniffed it with her nose: "Huh? Are you drinking?"

Chen Daolin smiled embarrassedly, looked at the girl in front of her, and looked at her cutely wrinkled nose, like a young wife waiting for her man to come home. In an instant, Chen Daolin's heart was as soft as tofu.

He smiled gently, couldn't help but stretch out his hand to gently stroke the blue face.

This action was really bold. Lan Lan was stunned. She probably didn't expect that this guy would dare to do such action, and forgot to dodge for a while.

Chen Daolin's fingertips touched the tender skin on Lanlan's face. The touching feeling of fingertips immediately made him feel relieved. He took a deep breath and said softly: "Have you... had you eaten it in the evening?"

With such a close look, such a warm voice, and fingers stroking her face, Lan Lan seemed to be completely stunned. She forgot to dodge and forget that she should get angry... Instead, she nodded subconsciously:

"Eat, eaten..."

Chen Daolin withdrew his hand and chuckled.

Seeing this guy smiling thornyly, Lan Lan woke up and stomped her feet hard, and said in dissatisfaction: "Where did you go? You came back so late? I was worried about you bastard!"

"I..." Chen Daolin smiled and said, "I went to sell something."

"Sell things?" Lan Lan looked at Chen Daolin suspiciously: "What to sell? Who can you sell to? You don't know how to speak the language of the elves."

Speaking of this, Lan Lan's face suddenly changed, her voice suddenly rose and exclaimed: "You... are the ones from the Tulip Caravan, aren't you?"

Seeing Lan Lan's attitude suddenly change, Chen Daolin suddenly felt a little bitter in his heart, gritted his teeth, and whispered: "Yes, I went to Ge Yan's place, I made some deals with him, and I also ate and drank some wine in his place in the evening."

Speaking of this, Chen Daolin found that the eyes in Lanlan's eyes became more and more strange, as if they were worried, guilty, afraid, and a little strange expectation...

This kind of eyes...

Chen Daolin suddenly remembered something!

"Ah!! I understand! That guy from the Tulip Family is hiding in this caravan, right?"

The words Chen Daolin blurted out immediately changed Lan Lan's expression!

Yes! That's right!
To be continued...
