Chapter 605 - 34: The Hidden Wealth of the Territory (Part 4)
Such a piece of jewelry was auctioned for a sky-high price of 487 Golden Crowns in the Hesse Territory’s trading house back then.
Now, this perfect jewel is collected by Su Li in the Bauhinia Palace’s manor, placed alongside Archibald’s skull drinking set.
The jewelry Su Li currently carries, although not as exquisite as the Dragon Blood Crown, can still easily sell for 100—200 Golden Crowns for the top-tier ones, and even the ordinary ones can fetch a dozen Golden Crowns.
These items are rather lightweight, easily carried away in the suitcase.
Su Li then waved his hand and said, "Pack everything well, and we’ll set off early tomorrow morning. Has the team been notified to assemble?"
Hilude calmly replied, "Lord, the personnel accompanying you have been selected. Besides us Knights, there are Minister of Foreign Affairs Hartskline, Minister of Agriculture Vandar, Baggins Brandy Gingerbread, leader of the Golden Bread food truck convoy, Hemis Black Beer Heart, member of the Comrade Friendship Club, and the Half-Elf hero Ashfield."
Silvana gracefully raised her hand beside them, a gesture both reminding of her presence and not overshadowing others, smiling softly and adding, "Of course, there’s me, Lord. I also hope to find some opportunities at Marle Castle’s market, and if possible, rescuing a batch of my fellow Elves would be best."
Saying this, she voluntarily approached Su Li, tidying his sleeves, cautiously looking up at him: "I heard, Lord, that you have a special ability, able to guide people in obtaining abundant opportunities. Might you also provide me with some guidance?"
Indeed, skilled in tea culture as only an Elf could be. She expressed that she’s conveniently joining them without seeming eager for favors, and ultimately crafted a persona filled with compassion and kindness, aiding her kin.
Su Li certainly couldn’t refuse such a request from a dear sister. He could only say, "If there is a chance, I won’t turn a blind eye. We’ll meet here tomorrow morning and depart promptly at six."
Understanding well the art of advancement and retreat, Silvana had achieved her purpose, decisively taking a step back, with elegance and composure, slightly tilting her head, as a faint, serene smile curved her lips: "Then I’ll go prepare first; we’ll meet promptly tomorrow."
Watching her silk-like skirt gently sway in the dusk, her departing silhouette like strings in the wind, Hilude glanced sideways and said, "No wonder Dwarves and Elves always struggle to get along; these Elves’ personalities are truly unlikable."
Probably because women generally don’t appreciate tea-tongue-sisters like her.
Su Li chuckled and said, "No worries, let her continue showcasing her tea skills; sooner or later, she’ll get herself involved."
This Green Tea will soon discover that her position and role will increasingly resemble Freya’s.
After which, Su Li put away his smile, refocusing on business: "This journey is also an excellent opportunity for us to grow. You could discuss with Ingrid, taking a significant fortune to Marle Castle to auction some precious items."
Both Ingrid and Hilude are indeed rich women in Hesse Territory, lacking no funds at hand.
On this trip to the biggest, most prosperous commercial city in the Border Prince’s Territory, Su Li is going out to make money, but they could entirely go for a shopping spree.
For both their power could be immensely boosted, especially Ingrid, with over ten thousand Golden Crowns. If she could purchase stronger magical tools, miraculous books, and experimental equipment, it could swiftly help her break through, perhaps making the Fourth Ring Wizard no longer a dream. By then, the Territory could produce legendary-level Talismans!
