Chapter 26 What specialties can you have? By the gods, isn't this honey too delicious? !
"Lord Onik, the architectural drawings of the Altar of Heroes are so precious, why do you want to give them away?"
Shortly after Richard left, several convoy guards looked at Onik with some confusion as no one was riding.
Onik, who felt cramped even when sitting on a large chair, glared at a few people.
"Who were we rescued just now?"
Several people murmured quietly.
"Although Lord Richard saved us, there is no need for us to use such precious items as reward, right?
"That was what we saved from the sandstorm at a huge cost!"
"Stupid!" Onik's fat face showed a bit of disdain.
"If the other party orders an attack at that time, what do you think our outcome will be?"
"Remember the first rule of the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce - in the desert, life comes first."
"Don't think that the sky will fall if you lose a precious drawing."
"Weak people have no choice. Even if the opponent had only a 30% chance of attacking us, we would never take the risk."
Speaking of this, Onik's tone became inexplicably lowered, and some memories flashed in his eyes.
"Fifteen years ago, I used to transport a batch of goods with Master Oko. You may not know who Master Oko is, but you must know that the Luanwei Flower Merchant has bought out the dwarves' 50-year weapons production. That is Master Oko. Made!”
There was a look of shock in the room.
"That time, we encountered something similar to today. The storm scattered the caravan. After we escaped, we were surrounded by a group of desert bandits."
"Master Oko never surrendered, resisted desperately, and finally died under the butcher's knife of those desert bandits."
Onik was full of regret, "Originally, the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce was going to negotiate with a powerful empire to establish trade relations."
"The death of Master Oko led to the failure of negotiations, and the competitor usurped the spot. We suffered immeasurable losses."
"From then on, the Luanwei Flower Merchant Association came up with that iron law - in the desert, life comes first."
"If Master Oko is still alive, the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild will be ten times stronger at this time!!"
"So you must remember that in the desert, surviving is the most important thing, so that you have the opportunity to continue to make more profits for the Chamber of Commerce."
"I will personally explain this matter to the president. If there is any punishment, I will bear it!"
Several people fell into silence when they heard this secret.
It took a long time for someone to speak.
"Lord Onik, what should we do next?"
"Recuperate first before returning to Solan City. Remember, don't cause trouble in this territory. Our lives are in the hands of others!"
After Onik and the others discussed for a long time, Karu, who had already arranged for someone to transport the prey back, stepped into the house with a smile on his face.
Two men followed behind, carrying tightly covered trays.
The cook in the lord's mansion is dedicated to serving Lord Richard, and these outsiders are not qualified to take a second look.
"Sir Onik, I am the political officer of Twilight City - Karu.
"When the lord left, he specifically asked me to bring the most precious specialties of the Twilight City to all the distinguished guests to taste."
specialty?
What kind of specialties can be found in this poor place?
Although several guards had faint smiles on their faces, they were silently slandering him in their hearts.
Onik stood up politely and laughed.
"Thank you for your hospitality, it's a pleasure."
But he didn't even look at what the two men were carrying.
As a merchant of the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild, he is a hero unit.
He has seen so much of the world, what else is worth seeing more of.
Kalu seemed to notice the carelessness of several people and didn't care. He stretched out his hand and motioned to the two people behind him to take off the tightly fitting wooden cover on the tray.
The moment the lid was removed, an indescribable and strange fragrance instantly surged into the room.
Gudong~
Onik and the others swallowed in unison, the sound was so loud that everyone could clearly hear it.
All of them suddenly turned red.
They looked at each other, embarrassed.
They were dismissive a second ago, but they didn't expect it to be so embarrassing in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, I didn't say what was in my heart just now, otherwise I would have died on the spot.
Onik couldn't care so much at this time, and stepped forward suddenly, looking at the crystal clear, slightly golden thing in the gray pottery bowl.
Suddenly, it felt like a simple pottery bowl became something extraordinary.
"This, is this honey?"
Seeing the astonished expression on Onik's face, Karu smiled proudly.
"That's right, Mr. Onik, this is a specialty of Twilight City, an exquisite delicacy brought back by the lord."
The taste of desert honey will never be forgotten by those who have tasted it.
The ultimate in the world.
"Can I have a taste?" Onik swallowed hard.
It's embarrassing to say that after all these years of traveling around, this is the first time he's seen honey with such a special fragrance.
"Of course, this is what the Lord used to entertain you all.
However, because it is too precious, the quantity is not large, please forgive me. ”
"Thank you, Lord Richard!"
Onik impatiently picked up an earthenware bowl with honey only filling the bottom of the bowl from the tray.
Put it to the tip of your nose and smell it.
That special fragrance made him feel like he was floating, feeling relaxed and happy.
This is definitely a rare product!
A bit of intoxication flashed in his eyes.
I couldn't wait in my heart, but I didn't want to give up too quickly. I brought it to my mouth and concentrated all my energy.
Like a pilgrimage, I tasted the desert honey in small sips.
When the honey entered his mouth, Onike felt an explosion of indescribable deliciousness.
Everyone was in a trance.
How could there be such a delicious thing in this world?
Is this a gift from the gods?
After he finished drinking the honey, he looked at the residue at the bottom of the bowl and licked it all up without any hesitation.
When he came to his senses, he remembered that he had done it in front of outsiders, and his face suddenly turned red.
He claimed to be well-informed in vain, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even hold a few bits of honey.
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a warm current in his stomach.
Then the whole person felt as comfortable as soaking in warm water.
His energy was greatly boosted, and most of the energy he had consumed recovered in the blink of an eye. Even his injuries were healed a lot.
He became more and more excited.
Not only is this honey delicious, but it also has the property of restoring physical strength and injuries? ?
By the gods, what a fucking masterpiece this is!
In excitement, I turned around and glanced at my companions around me, and found that several of them were holding bowls and licking wildly.
The corners of Onik's mouth twitched. Are you ready to make a breakthrough?
Looking at Karu, the indifference just now was completely gone.
The tone was a bit hot.
"Your Excellency Karu, how much honey like this is there? How much can be produced every month? In the name of the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce, I beg to open business relations with the City of Twilight..." (End of Chapter)
