Chapter 481 Elf Queen (3)
"The ingredients here are pretty good!" Tailan said, putting a milky white fungus into the soup. "Even this kind of white rainbow curtain bacteria is even more rare. It is preserved so fresh."
Danica didn't know much about food and could only say with confidence: "It should be, after all, this is where Phyllis once lived. With her status in the Elf King's Court, she can get the best enjoyment, at least material enjoyment."
Speaking of the ingredients, Danica chuckled: "But your status in the Druid Sect is not bad! You should be able to enjoy these so-called top ingredients, right?"
Tailan took out the pickled meat in his hand and wanted to slice it. He also said, "You are wrong. I didn't get any special treatment in the Druid Sect. I ate a lot of the vegetables I grew myself... This is the tradition of the Druid Sect."
At that time, the teacher of Tyran and Lin'an, the Great Druid Selius, just lived in ordinary thatched bungalows, and ate less than that of some of the little nobles of the human race. The reason for this tradition is that it is said that after the Druid Sect was expelled from the eastern forest five thousand years ago, it was difficult for a long time, and the entire tribe could not even have enough food. At that time, Selius set a rule that the food supply of the leaders of the Druid Sect must be the worst in the entire sect. After five thousand years of rest and recuperation, the living environment of the Druid Sect has improved a lot, but this tradition has been preserved - as a whole, whether it is Selius or Tyran, their food supply is indeed within the category of civilians.
"Okay, that's nothing, at least in my opinion," said Danica. As the founding queen of the Gemini Kingdom, she made all the rules, but she still felt that the simple meals of the Druids were more suitable for her appetite.
Tailan made three dishes in total, one dish of stir-fried vegetables, one dish of green peppers, one dish of bacon, and one mushroom soup, and another steamed a little rice. Although there were only a few dishes, it took a lot of effort to make it. The main reason was that Tailan was very familiar with this big and exaggerated kitchen, so the two looked for various seasonings for a while. After cooking this meal, it was already past eleven o'clock, and it was time for lunch.
The dining location was chosen on the balcony where Danica liked to stay. Through the large glass windows, you can enjoy the snow outside.
"Why are you here so early this time?" Danica asked after picking up a piece of bacon. She came over a month in advance, because of her good relationship with Phyllis, and because the government affairs of the Gemini Kingdom did not require her to worry about, so she had this time. As far as Danica knows, Tyran is still learning how to be a qualified druid. Shouldn't she be very busy?
Tailan put down the bowls and chopsticks and said helplessly: "Do we have to talk about these while we are having a meal?"
Danica smiled and said, "Why, I'm very disgusted with this kind of thing? But this is our job! Don't ordinary people talk about life and work when they eat?"
"Okay, what you said makes sense," said Tyran. "I want to come here early this time to see if I can get some special information. After all, Phyllis's throne ceremony is very important... This is a rare opportunity to communicate. I heard that Trudeau will come here too."
Danica ate a bite of rice with bacon and said, "That's true. After a coup some time ago, the pattern and situation of the entire continent have undergone earth-shaking changes. This time it is a good opportunity for people like us to test what others think."
"Yes, and I just came to get something." Tyran chuckled and said, "I met Lucia on the way to you, and she even talked to me a few words."
“About food?”
"Yes, the food matter," said Tyran. "Lucia hopes to buy a batch of food, the price is easy to negotiate, and it is directly paid with gold coins. When did the orcs become so rich?"
Danica smiled and said, "The Beast Clan has always been very rich. As the third-ranked powerful force in the Katic continent, the Beast Clan has some family fortunes even though it is poor. However, these gold coins were not something Lucia could use at all, but now it is different. She has inherited the holy position from Guyi and the Great Shaman. As the leader of the Beast Clan, she can of course call for a batch of reserve gold coins."
Tyran asked, "What do you think Lucia wants to do? Do she have any special plans?"
"Special plan? There should be no such thing." Danica said. "The situation is too complicated now, especially for the beast tribe, it is better to keep a low profile as much as possible. In this case, Lucyya dares not make any big moves. She probably just wants to reserve a batch of food. In this way, even if the situation changes, they can handle it well."
"Then do you think I should sell it to her?" Tyran asked.
"Wait and see!" Danica sighed slightly and said, "There are still many important people who haven't come. Let's see what we can talk about by taking this opportunity. If everything goes well, it would be fine to sell Lucya some food."
The two of them were having a meal and chatting. Suddenly, a black shadow flew over and a crow flew in and turned into Emily.
Emily is now a seventh-level druid, and it won't take long for a high-level druid who masters the form of a crow to fly here from Twins.
Seeing Emily, Danica frowned slightly and said, "What's wrong?" If nothing important was happening, Emily wouldn't come to find her.
Emily took out a report, handed it over, and said, "That's right, the Guards recently cracked a slave trade case."
The slave trade was explicitly prohibited in the Gemini Kingdom, which is said to be because the Gemini Queen did not like this kind of trade that could not create social value, but was just to allow some nobles to enjoy it.
"Is it a big scale?" asked Taylan, who was on the side. Although she was not as good as Phyllis, one of the Gemini Queens, Taylan was still very familiar with the Gemini Kingdom because of her relationship with Danica. If it was just a simple slave trade, the Guards could handle it themselves, and there was no need to ask Danica for instructions.
Emily replied carefully: "It's not only because of its large scale, but also because of the involvement of this case..." Emily stopped when she said this, and she didn't know whether she should continue talking.
Danica took a quick look, then put the documents on the table and said, "The main thing is that it involves some elves female slaves."
The elf female slave, Tyran, also frowned and said, "This kind of thing is a bit sensitive!"
Ten thousand years ago, when the Elf Empire collapsed, a large number of elves were slaughtered, and many beautiful elves were sold as slaves. This sinful trade lasted for thousands of years, and the dignity of the entire elves was trampled on so unscrupulously. Until five thousand years ago, not long after the Elf Queen Yekalina ascended the throne, the tragic encounter of an elf girl completely ignited the elves' anger. The unbearable elves finally began to revenge wildly, and some high-level professionals even participated in the assassination of the slave owner. The incident was quite big. It is said that the elf queen was going to take action in the end, and the pope of the Holy See of the Light had to stop it in time. Otherwise, no one would know how much damage a holy-level powerful man would cause.
It is precisely because of this history that the Elf Royal Court hates the slave trade, especially the slave trade involving the Elf Girls. When such a case occurs, there will be some variables in the already complicated situation.
In fact, there is another more important thing Emily didn't say. In addition to being large in scale and involving a few elves girls, this case also involved many people from the Aixue Chamber of Commerce. Now Aixue Chamber of Commerce is a giant, and its tentacles penetrate into all aspects of the kingdom. Without the cooperation of the internal staff of the Aixue Chamber of Commerce, let alone the already shameful slave trade, even ordinary business cannot be done. This time, this is the real reason why Emily came here. She needs Danica to give an instruction on how to deal with the people from the Aixue Chamber of Commerce.
Danica said in a usual cold voice: "Okay, I know this, just follow the law. In addition, take me the information about Luna and I want to take a look."
Emily lowered her head and said, "Yes, Master."
After Emily left, Tyran asked curiously: "Luna? Isn't that the person you selected to be in charge of the Aishi Chamber of Commerce? Why, this case still has something to do with her?"
Danica shook her head and said, "There is no such thing. There is no evidence that Luna knows about this. But this does not mean that she has no responsibility. As the head of the Aishi Chamber of Commerce, she has a leadership responsibility for anything that happens to the Chamber of Commerce."
After all, this is the internal affairs of the Gemini Kingdom, and Tyran doesn't have much to say. If it were Philis, she would have seen a lot of things. Luna has taken over the Aishe Chamber of Commerce for a while, but now, the Aishe Chamber of Commerce she managed is not as strong as the administrative department that has just been reorganized, which has made Danica very dissatisfied. Of course, there are many things to find reasons or excuses. For example, although the Executive Department has just been rebuilt, the reconstruction work was completed by Oliga, which means that the newly established administrative department is all people who are satisfied with Oliga. The Aishe Chamber of Commerce is different. In the cleaning carried out by Danica, there were not many people involved by Aishe, and the structure of the entire chamber of commerce was well preserved. Aishe Chamber of Commerce was established by Aishe, and everyone is her team. Suddenly, another person was changed and could not command these old fried dough sticks at all. It can be said that Luna's current situation is not as good as Oliga.
However, no matter how many reasons are, Luna and the others. For Danica, what she values is the result, and the result is that Luna's work is not satisfactory. Considering that the world situation is complex and changeable, if something happens to the Aishi Chamber of Commerce and causes the backyard of the Gemini Kingdom to catch fire, then...
Because of this, Danica asked Emily to transfer all the information about Luna. She needs to fully evaluate whether Luna has the ability to manage the Aishi Chamber of Commerce in the current situation.
This was a tedious and complicated task, which caused Danica to really not have the energy and time to discuss matters with the new leaders of major forces who came to the Moonlight Forest one after another. However, as an important force in the world, the Gemini Kingdom did not change because of Danica's indifference. Although she did not show up, she was still discussed by others, and this other person was Trulu.
There is a secluded villa in the Moonlight Forest, which was the residence arranged by Philis for Elizabeth. As a result, I just moved in yesterday. Before I could breathe a sigh of relief, True visited. There was no way, True was here, and Elizabeth had to receive it!
After taking Trudeau to the sofa in the living room, preparing refreshments and black tea, Elizabeth and Trudeau exchanged greetings. After a few words of chat, Trudeau made his request, but hoped to get the protection of the Holy See of Light.
"It's useless for you to come to me!" Elizabeth said helplessly.
True was silent, sitting on the sofa with an iron tower-like body, her waist straight, but for some reason, she always gave people a feeling of ending.
After looking at Dulu, Elizabeth continued: "If you want to get shelter, you must convince someone, Danica Fengyu. Originally, the strength of the Gemini Kingdom was already very strong. With the good relationship between Danica and Phyllis and Tyran, they must be in a consistent pace in some major events. With Danica's support, Dulu can also obtain the support of the Elf Royal Court and the Druid Sect at the same time.
"Danika..." Trul sighed long and said, "Of course I know the importance of the Gemini Kingdom, but Danika... I really can't find a reason to convince her. You know, that's a pretty difficult guy."
Elizabeth shook her head slightly and said, "Don't say that. In my opinion, you are still qualified to talk to Danica."
"Qualification? What qualifications?" True said with a wry smile, "Is it because of the millions of people left in me?"
"It's hard to say." Elizabeth smiled and said, "Danika, the millions of dwarves, don't care, but the knowledge in these dwarves' minds is what Danika dreams of."
True Lu was silent again. This was indeed a solution. Although the Gemini Kingdom also had a special agency responsible for the research and development of steel and castings, the time was still too little after all, and the corresponding accumulation was definitely not as deep as the dwarves. If this condition was taken, Denika would definitely agree to give her protection, but to be honest, True Lu was a little reluctant. Those knowledge was condensed by the hard work of countless dwarves for tens of thousands of years. Just handing over it like this, True Lu was unwilling to accept it!
