Chapter 130: Exchange of Heavenly Stones, Picking Up Missing Gunpoints (First Update)
Since the shepherd's horn did not show any strange phenomena, Li Qing put it in the storage bag.
Seeing that he was done, Fanshilo came again and invited Li Qing to discuss the future situation of the Iris Sea.
At the meeting, there was another fourth-level wizard from the Wizard Hermitage: "Moonlight Favored" Francis.
This person has a poetic title and a handsome face, with fair skin, blonde hair and blue eyes, which made many witches around him send a wink.
It is worth mentioning that Fanshilo does not have a title. Because in the Wizard Country, only fifth-level wizards can have titles, and the Wizard Hermitage is overstepping.
"Sir, Iris Island has gone against the grain and deliberately provoked killing and war. Lettuce Island cannot remain unscathed."
Francis got straight to the point: "What's more, your tsunami not only severely damaged Iris Island, but also caused their plan to go bankrupt. This hatred cannot be resolved."
Li Qing did not deny: "But at this stage, you are the main enemy of the Earl. He is a smart man and will never start a war on two fronts."
Fanshilo hurriedly mediated: "The Earl has won the support of the great nobles on land. If we don't stick together, we will be easily defeated one by one by him."
Li Qing smiled and said: "Sir, Fanshilo, if you lose, the worst that can happen is that you can hide in the dark swamp. If I get involved and lose, Lettuce Island will be wiped out."
Fanshilo remained calm: "Sir, you are joking. Can't you go back to the Witch Kingdom? That small island is just a chess piece."
Only Francis looked ugly.
After all, the Wizard Hermitage does not cultivate wizard cores, cannot go to the Wizard Kingdom, and its base camp is on the coastal islands. The consequences of defeat are very serious.
He pondered for a moment and directly revealed his cards: "We need your support. We are willing to pay the price. You can ask for whatever you need."
Li Qing remained calm: "What if I need a big elf?"
Francis' face froze: "Are you making things difficult for me? A big elf is more precious than a fourth-level wizard like me..."
"Then a small elf will be okay?" Li Qing lowered the standard very simply.
Francis calculated: "We have a limited number of small elves in our hermitage. Each has its own use and cannot be transferred."
The Wizard Hermitage has a large family business and many people. The astonishing number of wizards and the rune warriors who depend on them consume an astronomical amount of witch medicine every year.
Li Qing looked unhappy and stood up: "This is not possible, that is not possible. Since you have no sincerity, there is no need to talk anymore!"
"Wait a minute, sir!" Francis quickly pulled him back, "The elf cannot be given, but I can take out a sky stone."
Fan Xiluo also said: "A sky stone is not much different from giving it directly to the elf. You can also select the elf types, which is much more cost-effective."
Li Qing sat down. Although he didn't know what a sky stone was, it didn't stop him from asking for it: "Not enough! I want more Three fairy bugs!"
"You!" Francis's fair face was so angry that it turned red, "Don't be too greedy!"
Fan Xiluo hurriedly comforted him: "Francis, calm down first. Let's listen to the conditions of the tree shepherd first."
Li Qing watched them perform a double act for a while, and then he slowly proposed the conditions: "I will not directly participate in the war. But I can provide you with a lot of witchcraft..."
"With a little witchcraft, you dare to dream of exchanging for a fairy?" Francis was furious.
"Seventy acres!" Li Qing said slowly, "I am willing to give seventy acres of witchcraft every year for a hundred years in exchange for a sky stone."
Francis's anger disappeared.
After all, taking the lettuce fairy as an example, it only produces fifty acres of lettuce witchcraft per acre a year. Li Qing promised to give seventy acres every year, which is basically charity.
Li Qing added, "If the hermitage transfers three elf bugs, I am willing to give you 30 acres of witch medicine every year for three more years."
"Deal!" Francis clapped his hands fiercely and stood up suddenly, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will go and draft the Styx Pledge."
"Hey, Francis, wait a minute!" Vansilo almost stopped him, "This is just the preliminary condition, and the others need to be discussed later..."
Francis sat down awkwardly, and patiently discussed other conditions with Li Qing.
Including but not limited to:
The harbor of Lettuce Island is open to the Avengers, and at the same time, supplies are provided to the ships docked at the cost price.
Lettuce Island helps contact the Green Rose Family and asks them to lobby other small and medium-sized nobles on the land to remain neutral in the war between the two sides.
Strengthen the connection between the two sides, consolidate bilateral trade... and so on.
In general, Li Qing made a lot of concessions. After all, the Avengers still need to take the lead to buy time for the development of Lettuce Island.
Francis stood up excitedly and left the gathering island: "I will go back to the hermitage in half a day at most, and then I can bring the sky stone and the oath."
"Your Excellency is really generous!" Vanshilo was a little envious, "A little elf has a lifespan of 100 years, and produces only 50 acres a year."
"You are giving him 20 acres of witch medicine every year, and you have to pay for 70 acres of field management..."
Li Qing chuckled and said, "Just think of it as military expenses donated to the alliance. I still hope they can withstand the pressure."
This is a beautiful statement, but in fact Li Qing is sure to make a profit.
After all, the spiritual rice grown on ordinary land in the cultivation world is no worse than the witch medicine here. He can meet the demand by collecting some from the ordinary people of the Li family.
If he was not afraid of attracting attention due to the large shipment volume, Li Qing would even want to exchange a batch of elf insects with other organizations.
Li Qing and Fan Xiluo discussed the origin of the tree shepherd's horn.
It's a pity that Fanxiluo and the senior tree shepherd only had a casual acquaintance.
"He was nearing the end of his life at that time. After handing the horn to me, he went directly into the turbulence of the void. He used himself as an anchor to stabilize the boundaries of the world."
Li Qing was afraid of revealing his secrets, so he didn't talk much. He got up and went to visit the stalls set up by other wizards to see if he could find anything missing.
With a sweep of his consciousness, the grade of most of the objects was clear to him: most of them were supplies that could only be used during the Qi training period, and a small number of fakes were just fake.
After watching him finish the conversation, Fakusi, who followed him, reminded: "You don't want to try your luck here, do you? The other two adults came much earlier than you."
The implication is that even if someone misses something, it won't be Li Qing's turn.
"What's more, these wandering wizards are very cunning. If you like it, they will definitely ask for a sky-high price. If you don't buy it, others will be willing to do it."
Li Qing laughed: "That's not necessarily true!"
As he spoke, he walked up to a first-level wizard and picked up a broken gun head: "How do you sell this?"
The wizard was frightened, but he still gritted his teeth and shouted a high price: "I want a magic potion that can help break through the second-level wizard."
Without saying a word, Li Qing threw out a bottle of a first-class medium-grade elixir that nourishes the spiritual consciousness: "Take one pill a day for fifteen days."
"When you break through, it shouldn't be difficult to hold another pill in your mouth to survive the first transformation of the meditation method. The remaining one is enough for your second transformation."
The little wizard was overjoyed: "Thank you Lord Tree Shepherd for your generosity! This treasure will be given to you in exchange."
After that, he packed up other items, a roll of blankets, and directly ended the stall and left the gathering island.
Li Qing shook his head helplessly: "He's so frizzy. He's not afraid of being stared at either."
After saying that, his powerful aura burst out, frightening several second-level wizards who wanted to follow him.
