Chapter 48 Cooperation Agreement

"Mr. Rudolph, I heard that you are here to do business." The queen asked with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty, do a business with you or with all the elves." Arcado also smiled and bowed his head.

"What goods can you provide? Mr. Rudolph. The two elf golden helmet guards removed a chair carved with exquisite patterns from the queen's carriage, and the queen sat on it casually.

"Your Majesty, I can provide you with the most missing paper, cow and sheep leather, high-quality cloth and silk, clay products and porcelain, etc., and even I can buy back the slaves for you like yesterday." Accado slowly came one by one, and there are really not many goods that human beings can handle now.

"Bold!" The queen shouted, and the elf guards around pulled out their red swords and stared at Arcado angrily, like an eagle staring at the little white rabbit.

"How dare you sell me what I was robbed!" The queen said angrily, "Are you humiliating me?"

Arcado was overwhelmed by the queen's momentum and sweated coldly on his forehead. It took him a long time to breathe. He resisted the queen's mountain momentum and said loudly, "You love your people. I don't want them to suffer, but you don't have an effective way to save them, and I can't rob those The slave came to give it to you, so this is the only way for me.

"Who is there anyone who redeems his things from the robbers?" The queen said angrily.

"With all due respect, didn't the elves also kill the captured human poor directly? You are not on the moral side. Arcado said, "If you are not satisfied, I can leave."

"Would you like to go?" The queen still said grumpily, "I didn't let you go. Do you have the confidence to walk out of this land?" With the Queen's words, her guard took another step towards Arcado under the leadership of Rona.

Acardo's four elf guards have been knelt on the ground by the queen's momentum and the most powerful soldiers of the elf clan and dare not look up. Although Gavin pressed his sword in his right hand, he was also breathless and knelt on one knee.

"The queen was furious and blood flowed into a river. Of course I know that." Arcado was oppressed to the limit, but there was a sense of freedom. He suddenly laughed and said in a joking tone, "But Your Majesty, a beggar can splash blood five steps when she is angry!" After saying that, he took a step forward and stared at the queen.

"Hahahaha." After a while of silence, the queen suddenly laughed at Arcado, who had adapted to the atmosphere so quickly: " Put away all the swords, Rudolph, you are very good."

"Thank you for your praise." Acado, with a sweaty face, felt that the crisis had passed, wiped the sweat on his chin, and then said, "I just understand that the wise queen will not break the way to save the clan."

"So what do you want to get in the Elf Forest?" The Queen asked with interest.

"Silverware, exquisite jewelry, wood, especially adult fine wood, gold coins, and wine made by elves." Arcado said.

"Well, you are a good businessman and have a good vision. These things will become the most sought-after items when transported to the human world." The queen thought for a moment and said.

"Also, I want all the magic crystals that the Elf Forest can provide me." Arcado looked at the Elf Queen and said without blinking.

"Are you a magician?" The queen looked at Arcado and asked.

"No, Your Majesty, I don't know a magic. I'm a magic idiot." Arcado said self-deprecatingly.

"So you want your men to practice magic?" The queen continued to ask.

"Although this is possible, I really haven't thought that far." Arcado scratched his head and said awkwardly.

"Then why do you want so many magical crystals?" The queen is becoming more and more curious.

"Do you see that ship?" Arcado pointed to the black pearl in the distance.

"Your boat is very strange. There is no sail. If it is not broken, it will not be driven by the wind. Don't you want to tell me that you drive the ship with magic crystals?" The queen looked at the Black Pearl and stared back at Arcado.

"It does rely on crystals as power, Your Majesty." Arcado said that he had to tell the Queen the truth, because he needed a lot of magic crystals as a reserve resource in the future. At this moment, he had to bet that if the queen was interested in crystal power, he would offer a magic array of crystal power in exchange for the queen's trust.

"Don't be so nervous. I'm not interested in your gadgets." The queen looked at the Black Pearl from afar, and the black and ugly thing was not in line with the elf's aesthetics at all. Moreover, the elf queen is not low enough to kill the donkey for the first time.

"Let's talk about elf slaves." The queen withdrew her eyes from the Black Pearl, which made Arcado take a deep breath.

"I will go back and forth here and various ports in the human world as quickly as possible, and bring back anything you are interested in. You can provide a list, and you can exchange items of equal value, but I want to earn a commission of 11%." Arcado said.

"Harmon, advance Mr. Rudolph's 500,000 gold coins, two boxes of silverware and jewelry, and a box of fine jewelry inlaid with mithril. As Mr. Rudolph redeemed the clan's funds for us. The queen casually said, "What other conditions do you need?"

"This elf has signed a master-servant contract with me. I want to show you that I am not malicious, and please personally reward him with his legal status and allow him and the voluntary elf to work for me in the future." Arcado said.

"You are such an interesting person." The queen looked at Arcado and smiled and said, "I have granted Gavin the third-class baron of the Elf Forest and served Rudolph Arcado for life. Any voluntary elf in the Elf Forest can work under Arcado, but he must not be abused and enslaved."

"Your magnanimity and open-mindedness are really worth learning." Arcado bowed his waist and praised, "Your wise and martial arts are as dazzling as the sun." Flatt is free. With so many benefits, it's always right to say a few nice words.

"What else do you need? Say it in one breath. Don't please me with those numb words. I'm not as superficial as you think." The queen can't stand it anymore.

"You know, the human world is full of jealousy, greed, selfishness and ferocity, and I need an identity that can protect me from constraints." Arcado lowered his head and said, "There is really nothing else. I have taken a lot of advantage."

"Do you want the identity of an elf aristocracy?" The queen asked.

"Your Majesty, the identity of an elf may be constrained by more people to do elf things." Arcado said slowly, "I need a diplomatic identity that can protect me."

"Diplomatic status?" The Queen seems to be unfamiliar with this phrase.

"I am now the actual ruler of Rome Island, Your Majesty, if you send someone to inform the Holy Empire, you will say that you have recognized my legal rule in Rome, and my attack will cause hostility to the Elf Forest. I think the Holy Empire will consider it clearly. And the hosting of a human island is much more convenient than the elf aristocracy.

"The reward you want is not low." The queen smiled and stared at Arcado and said, "Do you have any other deals that interest me?"

"I will find a way to reduce the plunder of elf slaves by human beings." Arcado said seriously, "I don't think Her Majesty will use this method of drinking poisoned wine to quench thirst for a long time."

"The Holy Empire is not qualified to consider it at all. You may not know that two days ago, the envoys of the Holy Empire have come to the Elf Forest. The north of the Holy Empire is now fighting. It's too late to please the elves. They dare not provoke the Elf Forest at all, even at all." The queen revealed an amazing news: "Just do as you say."

Is there a rebellion in the north of the Holy Empire? This news stunned Arcado.
