    Sam and others followed behind the Elf and the Demon King with their camels. They were actually half happy and half worried in their hearts.

    Fortunately, we finally reached a place with water and no longer had to face the harsh test of water shortage.

    But the people here gave them a really weird feeling.

    As we all know, the current environment of Weifu Continent is very harsh. No matter where we go, wind, sand and scorching sun are always with us.

    Therefore, no matter how mutated the people on the Weif Continent are now, they still have one common characteristic - their skin maintains the original appearance of human beings, and they are all chocolate brown or preferably dark.

    But Sam discovered that the skin color of the two people shrouded in black cloaks was incredibly white. Even the most pampered princess he had ever seen did not have such fair skin, not even a newborn baby.

    It's like I've never seen the sun.

    And among them, when the man who was slightly shorter - but still much taller than them - and more slender turned around, Sam was sure that he saw a touch of gold in the slit of his hood.

    Sam's eyesight is very good, and it's from such a close distance, so he and you are sure that what you see is not some decoration, but more like hair?

    But this discovery almost made Sam suspect that he was wrong, because since the catastrophe thousands of years ago, as the environment has become more harsh and humans have become more mutated, no one with light hair has appeared for a long time..

    Especially this kind of gold, like the sunshine flowing on the hair.

    Suspecting that he had mistaken the sun for hair, Sam followed Luvita down the dune with this doubt.

    They came to the Populus euphratica forest.

    The dense canopy of poplar trees completely covered the scorching sun. As soon as they entered here, everyone felt a cool breeze blowing against their faces.

    This was really comfortable. After walking in the desert for so long, they had not felt so comfortable for a long time. They felt like they were all alive.

    But the merchants are still cautious. There might be some dangerous creatures living in such a place.

    After eating and drinking, Huahua was lazily yawning in a very tall poplar tree and was ready to go to bed. It is a big cat that is nocturnal. It is still awake at this time just because it wants to be peaceful.The reason why spirits get along.

    But now the elf has been taken away by the terrible devil, and he will never be seen again before night comes.

    So it’s better to catch up on some sleep.

    After a period of growth, the Populus euphratica forest has expanded a lot. The elf is already considering whether to let Redimeng clear another sand dune to let these trees grow outward, so as not to be crushed when the seeds of the Populus euphratica trees mature.It's everywhere.

    But that’s work for later.

    He and the Demon King walked in front and passed through the Populus euphratica forest first.

    The scene outside the Populus euphratica forest made the businessmen who came out later take a breath.

    They were on the sand dunes before, far away, and there was a large tree more than ten meters high in front of them blocking their view. All they could see was the large poplar tree and the magic castle in the middle, even the moat outside the magic castle.They could only vaguely see a corner. As for the other greens, they were too far away. Although they could see them, they didn't know what they were. They just thought they were fields cultivated by people here.

    But now, what appeared in front of them was a huge botanical garden that was even more beautiful than a desert oasis.

    Desert plants with strong vitality appeared in patches around the Populus euphratica forest, blocking the path for these trees to continue extending inward. Those plants were not like the ones they saw in the desert, which were withered colors. Every plant here wasEach one looks to be in shades of emerald green, blooming and bearing fruit, completely contrary to its own flowering and fruiting time.

    Looking further inside, the ground is full of green vines and leaves, making the watermelons and cantaloupes lying quietly among them extremely conspicuous. Similarly, the grapes hanging on the fence also make the merchants who see them stand out.Swallowed hard.

    Fruits are also very rare in places where water is scarce, especially since they cannot be stored for a long time. Therefore, many people in places with serious water shortages may not even see several kinds of fruits in their lives.

    What everyone can usually eat are the fruits of desert plants such as Elaeagnus elegans, sea buckthorn fruit and white thorn fruit, which can grow well on their own without being planted.

    But what they see now is different.

    Neither watermelons, cantaloupes nor grapes last long in this heat, and growing them requires a lot of water.

    In a world where water is more precious than gold, it can be said that these fruits can only be enjoyed by the nobles and the rich and powerful.

    Among them, grapes are especially precious because they are not only the most difficult to store, but everyone knows that they can also be used to make wine.

    Delicious wine is definitely one of the best-selling goods on the continent.

    Unable to resist, some people have already asked if there is any wine brewed here. If possible, they want to buy some.

    The elf only used the translation technique on Aqi, so he couldn't understand those people's words.

    But the businessmen were not stupid either. After discovering that his words did not attract the attention of the two masters, Sam was the first to go to Aziz, hoping that he would convey the meaning of his side.

    Compared to the goods they brought, wine was obviously more popular, especially since the current season was not the time when the grapes were ripe, but the grapes here looked like they had been picked.

    After listening to Aqi's report, the elf remembered that Anset Lodge had said that the wine had been brewed, and the quantity was enough for the monsters in the magic castle to drink for a year.

    So he didn't ask Redimon, but said directly to Aqi: "Tell them, if they want wine, someone will talk to them after we see the goods they brought."

    I believe their finance minister will be happy to talk to these businessmen.

    With Anset Lodge's good habit of covering everything, I think Ivistal was already gearing up to bargain with these merchants.

    The elf has now consciously considered himself a member of the Magic Castle, and he does not feel guilty at all when commanding Redemon's subordinates - although he himself does not seem to realize this yet.

    With the surprises in the fruit fields, the subsequent farmland did not surprise the businessmen so much.

    However, they still noticed those grains and vegetables that should not be ripe at this time. There were many crops that they had never seen before, but they seemed to be good crops.

    After that, they came to the magic castle. In the eyes of the merchants, the thirty-meter-wide and ten-meter-deep moat was like treasures all over the ground, making their eyes bright and scary.

    When these businessmen carefully asked if they could let them drink some water first, and they were willing to exchange money for it, and when they took out a bag of gold coins, they suddenly said:...

    "Tell them they can go and drink if they want without paying."

    He originally planned to take these people to the castle to drink cleaner and take out the boiled and then cooled well water from the deep well, but since these people think that the water here is enough, there is no need to waste firewood..

    Hearing that there was no need to pay, Sam and others were overjoyed and couldn't help but thank them. Then they all ran to the moat, lowered their heads and started drinking water.

    They did not appear to be in confusion, and no one jumped into the water to take a bath - everyone knew that this would dissatisfy the owner - and even the camels that approached to drink water were pushed back by them, and they were not allowed to do so.near.

    After they drank enough water, they took out their own water bladders and filled them, and then filled the water with some tools and went back to feed the camels.

    Of course, Sam and others were careful before drinking the water - it was not that there had never been cases of drugging the water to stun businessmen and then robbing or even killing people. They had carefully checked before drinking the water.

    The person responsible for the inspection was another servant of Sam, or rather a slave.

    Every time Sam goes out on business, in addition to bringing enough guards, he also brings two slaves. One of them is the servant with good eyes. He can help Sam pay attention to the situation further away.

    The other one was a Gberene slave.

    The Geberene people have no obvious variation in appearance, but their sense of taste and smell are very strong and they are good at identifying whether things are poisonous.

    Because of this talent and the fact that they do not have much military protection, the Geberene people were all reduced to a slave race a long time ago and sold at high prices as special commodities.

    It also makes them less and less available, and then more and more expensive.

    Seim also spent a lot of money to buy this mixed-blood Geberene slave. Because he was a mixed-race slave, his ability was not as good as that of a pure-blood Geberene slave, so Seme could afford to buy him.

    But this slave's ability is still very useful, so every time he encounters water or food, Sam's slave will taste it first, and only after he is sure that there is no problem, others will put it in his mouth.

    The elf didn't notice this, but His Majesty the Demon King did, but he just glanced at it from the corner of his eye and returned his gaze to the elf.

    The merchants spent a lot of time drinking water and feeding the camels. Luvita waited patiently for them to finish, and then led the caravan into the magic castle.
