Chapter 120 The Sins of Suqi Township
Chapter 120 The Sins of Suqi Township
"We were really unlucky this time. I will ask Lelem to help us go to the team's business site again. I hope it will be better this time."
According to the current plan, if the caravans can come directly to the village, everyone can easily enjoy the fun of shopping, but this will take some time.
It will take some time for the orcs to get used to "shopping". But I think it will be difficult for them to enjoy affluence properly unless they understand the economy. I believe that in the coming wave of reforms, there will be a happy future for them.
If Kiltis could think the same way, the future would be closer.
The vista of the town of De Dent is changing dramatically. Where once there was only a fenced stretch of the village, now, except for a section in the south, it is surrounded by nefs trees, like taking a bite out of a doughnut.
As they opened the north door and walked in, the kittens suddenly rushed over.
"Welcome back!"
“Mart, he’s back!”
“There’s a stranger!”
"Ye Kai!"
The kittens rushed over and trapped Purple. Ye Kai had no choice but to get off Purple and let them move freely. The kittens climbed on him, and some even climbed onto Purple's back.
"We have guests so we have to go back to town, okay?"
"Yeah!" Seeing the kittens answer together, Kiltis also smiled.
"These are all from the Nefs tree. I want you to buy some of the fruit here. You see, there are quite a lot of them growing there. They are not ripe yet, they are green, but they will turn yellow when they are ripe."
"Oh, is that it?"
After Ye Kai pointed, Kiltis seemed to understand what Nefs was. Although only the nobles of Phrygia truly understood its value, if it could be circulated in large quantities, it would bring huge profits.
“You may not understand it just by looking at it. I hope you can actually taste it later.”
“It would be great if we could do that. It’s really hard to sell something you don’t understand.”
“I understand.”
Then, Trimai began to talk about practical issues. Their relationship gradually became closer. Therefore, Kiltis asked the accompanying caravan wagon to accompany him, and he went with the orcs' wagon to continue the conversation.
Perhaps it is because of this concern that he wins trust. This may be his basic principle as a businessman.
“Is Lelem back?”
“No meow yet!”
“She hasn’t come back yet meow!”
Hearing the answers, Ye Kai smiled bitterly and shook his head at Trimai.
"Mr. Kravit. Although our leader, Lelem, is at the elders' meeting, we intend to confirm the goods under Trimai's authority. However, the final decision will be left to Lelem, so please be patient until she returns."
“Will this be a burden to the township? If so, we can discuss it.”
"It may only take a few days. It won't have much impact. You are welcome to come."
After this conversation, they entered the village. The kittens were urged by Ye Kai and Malte to go into the village, cheering "Meow! Meow!" The residents of Dedente Village welcomed them with smiles on their faces.
Sure enough, three days later, Lalem came back, and among the people he brought with him were some people that Ye Kai and his team had not expected.
------------------
When you peel off the skin of a ripe nefes, it will give off a sweet aroma, and when you take a bite, the soft texture and rich flavor will fill your mouth.
“It’s really delicious. It has a nice sweet taste with a hint of sourness. It’s really good.”
"The ones I just provided are picked from the dense forest, but the same variety is also available in the Naifs Garden in the countryside."
Kiltius Kravit was surprised by the taste of the Nefs provided. He didn't expect such a good product to be hidden in the orc settlement. He thought the reason why it was valued was simply because of the sense of superiority brought by scarcity.
“Would you like to try this too?”
Next came the nefes, but this time they were roasted, and with Tremay's permission they had picked fruits of sufficient size from the nefes garden, roasted them, and seasoned them with a little salt.
"Please rest assured, this is comparable to the goods cultivated in our village."
“This taste!? But the rich sweetness is even more prominent because of the salt…”
"Yes. In fact, the main ingredient of nefus is the same as taro. So after heating, it will have the same taste as taro. But the taste still belongs to nefus. It can also be used as an ingredient for heated dishes."
This is where neves are similar to bananas.
It is both a cooking ingredient and a fruit, and has a very wide range of uses. In the original world, people tend to only regard it as a fruit or dessert ingredient, but it is also used as a cooking ingredient around the world.
"Mr. Trimai, what do you think? Can we try to export some large enough Nefs? Of course, we need to discuss it with Lelem."
“Yes, I think the suggestion is worth considering. Mr. Kravit also hopes to get commercial confirmation.”
"Is it possible? I'd like to try it. With a little improvement, it should be able to become a good product."
Kiltis also cheered up.
“I am pleased with their enthusiasm, but we have already arranged to deliver the goods to the Royal City first, and there is nothing that can be done there.”
"Really? Delivered to the Royal City?"
In fact, they were almost certain of the success of Neves's cultivation, and therefore had promised Bartro to deliver the goods to the royal city.
"If Tulio can do it in time, we will have him sign; if not, I will write a letter in my name. That way the goods can be delivered to the Royal City."
"This is a bit troublesome..." He paused, then said: "However, since the arrangements have been made, we will seriously purchase it. When the leader comes back, we will discuss the price."
Kiltis may have initially thought that this deal was a bit like gambling, but when the truth was revealed, he felt excited because it was so profitable.
This is definitely an opportunity.
----
Three days later, Lelem returned from the elders' meeting with the volunteer leaders. The leaders saw the changes in Dedente Township and were even a little bit unbelievable.
The village of Dedent was surrounded by the familiar Nefthrin forest, where fruits were clearly visible growing. Seeing was believing. Their doubts were completely dispelled, and they could only apologize to Leleme, who had guided them.
Although interest has turned to the management of the Naifs Garden, the reality is that even that is rarely needed. Plants that grew naturally are simply transplanted. In short, it will flourish if you leave it alone.
