Zhao Hai and Laura returned to their tent but did not imdiately head back out. Laura looked curiously at Zhao Hai, “Brother Hai, you did not ntion to Bell that Brother Wales would counter attack imdiately, are you afraid that he’ll spread the news?”
Zhao Hai nodded, “Although Bell is also a mber of the league, we can’t not hold a little bit of precaution. It’s better to be more careful, in any case, so that Brother Wales’ counterattack this ti would be successful. This ti, Brother Wales’s attack hinges on the elent of surprise. If we let others know when he will counterattack, the plan may fail, so we should tell nobody about this matter.”
Laura nodded, to be honest, if Bell were not a mber of the League of Black Mages, they wouldn’t even make a contact with him, after all, Bell’s reputation is really bad.
g turned to Zhao Hai, “I think Mister Bell is a good man, he told us so secret information. Why is young master still on guard against him?”
Zhao Hai looked at g and the innocent Nier with a wry smile, Laura also shook her head. g and Nier were the kind of people who wouldn’t make any further assumptions. To them, if a person treated them well, then the person must be good. With this mindset, if nobody protects them then they would most likely be swindled and beco bankrupt.
Zhao Hai cannot bear to look at their eyes any further, he said “Bell is a good person, and he is also a fellow mber of the League of Black Magicians so he should not be against us. But with the current situation, the less people who knew the better, anyway you must rember this saying, ‘Never harbor the intent to victimize others; but never let your guard down against being victimized.'
They nodded earnestly, but looking at their faces, Zhao Hai had the impulse to hit a wall, looking at them, its really uncertain if they will really rember.
Zhao Hai and Laura looked at each other, they cannot help but shake their heads and focus on preparing things they needed to eat. They did not believe that g and Nier would be able to hurt soone in this life.
The things that they need to prepare aren’t that many, as long as they have milk wine and so vegetables then they would be fine. Zhao Hai didn’t bring out many vegetables, only ones that were easy to preserve, he didn’t want the beastn to be jealous of his space.
In only a few minutes, the four people were ready to go out of their tent. Outside the tent the bonfire was already going on, the argali already roasted. This made Zhao Hai admire the technique of Bell’s subordinate in handling food.
In his hand, Zhao Hai was holding the sheepskin knife given to him by Spier. Even though what ndez gave him was much more gorgeous, Zhao Hai still liked using the one Spier gifted him. Maybe it’s because he felt Spier’s sincerity in handing him the knife, while the knife ndez gave him was too magnificent, and not suitable for use, perhaps only for collection.
Bell was waiting for Zhao Hai, as though he was waiting for a treat. Glasses, plates, and all the things they needed for the al were prepared ,only Zhao Hai was missing.
Zhao Hai didn’t act too polite, he put out several pots of milk wine, you must know that these big pots were used by beastn to hold their milk wine. Each pot can hold up to 5 jin, Zhao Hai brought six pots this ti.
As Zhao Hai brought out the wine, Beta also arrived, he did not co empty-handed. He held a big basin in his arms, which actually turned out to be beef.
Bell imdiately sat down along with the other two. After they have sat down, g and Nier imdiately went forth and poured them so wine. As the wine was poured down, Beta and Bell could feel the difference in this wine, this wine’s fragrant aroma is too imposing.
What’s most important, is that the liquid is very clear as though it doesn’t have any point of impurity, it pretty much looked like water. However, the fragrance and llowness of the milk in the liquor greeted the nostrils, making one unable to stop slling.
At this ti, Cassie had cut up the beef that was brought by Beta, but Bell and Beta didn’t notice the beef at all, their eyes were stuck staring ant the wine glass in front of them.
Bell took a deep breath, then he looked towards Zhao Hai and asked, “Mister Zhao, is this you milk wine?”
Zhao Hai smiled and nodded, he replied, “Try it, see how my milk wine compares so Brother Beta’s. Brother Beta, you also taste, but I have to warn you that this wine strongly burns.
Beta didn’t know what it ant by being polite, so he imdiately downed the entire glass. Then Zhao Hai looked at his appearance as though he was watching an entertaining show, a show on a screen called the face, with the perforr being Beta, as the performance proceeded, Beta’s face turned red in a flash.
This cannot be blad on Beta, he was not used to drinking liquor with a high degree of alcohol. Although Zhao Hai’s liquor only underwent simple distillation, the degree went up by almost 30 proof. The milk wine that the beastn drank before can only be considered a simple alcoholic drink, it didn’t have that high of a degree.
Looking at Beta’s situation, Bell was surprised and also beca a bit cautious. He raised the cup and took a little sip, the llow wine fragrance along with its milky flavor beca sandwiched in his mouth, the taste was really exquisite.
Bell closed his eyes, and just felt the fragrant taste of the wine. Although the wine also had a milky flavor, it wasn’t any bit slly and the taste wasn’t uncomfortable at all but was rather llow making the wine a bit more rich, this was the first ti that Bell has co to drink this type of wine .
Beta was breathing heavily at this ti, he was already unable to wait and he poured himself another glass of wine, he did not even have the ti to praise the first glass before he drunk the second glass. His face beca even more red, as if they were bleeding.
Zhao Hai saw Beta beginning to get his third glass, he quickly said, “Brother Beta, no rush, we may not even taste the beef that you’ve brought, you wouldn’t want yourself to be drunk do you?”
Beta responded, he gave back his glass full to the brim with liquor, then he said to Zhao Hai, “Right, Brother Zhao co taste the beef that I brought, this was just boiled with so unique spices from our prairie, taste it quickly.”
Seeing Beta this way, Bell and Zhao Hai couldn’t help but laugh, then they tasted the beef that he brought. It was very fragrant, and the flavor is really unique and can only be found in the prairie, humans had no way of replicating this flavor.
Zhao Hai was curious about the spices that Beta ntioned, he turned to Beta and said, “Brother Beta, can you give so of your spices? It’ll be much better if they were alive.”
Beta knew that Zhao Hai wanted to collect plants, but he didn’t think that he would collect these kinds of plants also, after he heard Zhao Hai, he imdiately replied, “Very well, Brother Zhao, this is not a problem, tomorrow I will find so spices and have them sent to you alive, but I have a request, you have to send a few pots of your milk wine.”
Zhao Hai laughed, “No problem, brother, even if you didn’t give so of those spices I would’ve still given you a few pots of milk wine.” he said while laughing. Bell also laughed with Zhao Hao, Bell liked Zhao Hai more and more now, at the sa ti he also understood why in such a short ti, Zhao Hai managed to make the entire West Wonder King camp like him so much.
Bell didn’t know that the two flags that Zhao Hai had were friendship flags, nobody could bla him because most people who did business in the beastn prairie did not understand what friendship flags were or have even heard it since they could not win the beastn’s trust, thus they weren’t given friendship flags.
But even so, looking at the way the beastn act towards Zhao Hai, the beastn seem to be showing a different side, they seem to like interacting with Zhao Hai more. Them interacting with Zhao Hai and them interacting with Bell, it’s exactly two different things.
At the beginning, Bell didn’t understand what it was, but now when he saw Zhao Hai, he understood, he understood why those beastn like to make contact with Zhao Hai, it was because of respect.
Although Bell didn’t want it known, but he had to admit that he had always looked down on the beastn. He despised them, who only know how to herd sheep and had very unpleasant sheep sll. He thought that these beastn were so uncouth boorish fellows, that they were completely different.
When he cos in contact with the beastn, he was polite and rry, which was enough. But he had to recognize that he was less respectful and is a bit more arrogant towards them. Therefore this made it very difficult for him to beco a true friend to the beastn.
Bell cannot help but sigh, he can now understand why Zhao Hai beca Wales’ Beheading Blood Oath brother, it was because Zhao Hai held a respect for him.
This al eaten by several people was very rry, not only because of Zhao Hai’s wine, but also because of Bell’s fruits, Zhao Hai’s vegetables, Bell’s beef, and Cassie’s roast argali.
After eating, many beastn who were familiar with Zhao Hai ca and joined them, Zhao Hai was busy making Laura take out more milk wine to drink with everyone. More than a dozen beastn beca drunk in the camp. It didn’t an that they had drunk a huge amount of liquor, on the contrary, they did not drink too much but instead drank too fast, therefore they made themselves intoxicated.”
Zhao Hai didn’t drink too much since he was very experienced with high degree alcohol. One cannot drink too much of this type of liquor, drinking too fast will also make you drunk. But to Zhao Hai, this milk wine was not the high degree alcohol that he was used to, compared to a high degree alcohol back on Earth, this milk wine felt too light.”
All the people who ca to the camp were happily drinking. For Bell, this was the first ti he experienced beastn being intimate with him , he really admires Zhao Hai now.
Bell was also happily drinking, in the end he needed to be lifted by Cassie back to his tent, but Bell didn’t say anything, he was the first one keeling over, drunk.
When the other people in the camp were gone, Zhao Hai also returned to their tent. Zhao Hai didn’t drink too much today, so he was very awake, he did not need to drink life water to heal his hangover.
Laura looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, “It seems that the milk wine deal with Bell is finalized.”
Zhao Hai slightly smiled, “It looks like there would be no problems. Moreover, I think our milk wine sales in West Wonder King’s camp would also skyrocket, a pity that West Wonder King wouldn’t exist for too long.”
Laura stayed silent, she didn’t know what to say, if Wales’ counterattack against the Fighting Bulls were to succeed, he certainly wouldn’t let West Wonder King off easily. When that ti cos, West Wonder King’s camp would be embroiled in the flas of war.
Zhao Hai looked at Laura’s appearance, he knew what she was thinking, he sighed and said, “There’s no other way, forget it, give a piece of paper, I have to write the information we gathered today and send it to brother Wales to make him prepare earlier. I want the information regarding the Radiant Church to be among these, this would be a very important weapon for him, he can use this information to invite other beastn races for help, they’d certainly agree to give aid.”
Laura nodded and replied, “I think that this thing was already been known by those large warring races in the prairie. The strength of those races couldn’t be underestimated, but why they just turned a blind eye towards the Herculean Bulls, is beyond .”
Zhao Hai laughed and said, “Not necessarily, these warring races aren’t gods, they cannot know everything. Although the Herculean Bulls are fairly famous among the beastn, they are still a small group, they cannot necessarily be able to attract the attention of those big warring races.”
Laura nodded, “I certainly hope that is the case. I always had the feeling that sothing was going on between the beastn and humans recently, and it’s not good”
Zhao Hai sighed and said, “No matter what we do, we only need to ensure the safety of out territory. I heard a saying, if everything is left to the world, then poverty is the only good. What it ans is, we need to help others when we have the power but if you have no power, just let yourself not be bad and be an honest person. We can only count as poor people now. If there is really sothing big going on in the continent, then we can only do our best to help others.”
Laura nodded, she also thought that these words were reasonable, their current status on the main continent was very sensitive, especially inside the Aksu Empire. Zhao Hai and Laura’s status is likened to that of an old street mouse, being chased and hunted around. At this ti, even if they wanted to help others, they were unable to, it would not bode well if they were to expose their secret, as their troubles would beco greater.
Laura sighed and said, “If the beastn would really make a move, their only goal could only be the Aksu empire because they share borders. They wouldn’t cross the ocean to attack the Rosen Empire, that would be unrealistic. If the beastn were to really wage war with the humans, then what do we do? Do we still provide grain to the beastn? But in that case, wouldn’t it be unfair for the humans?”
Zhao Hai had a headache thinking about this, he touched his forehead and after so ti sighed, “Let’s not think about this anymore. Right now there still hasn’t been a war. And if it breaks out, Wales is still my sworn brother. To be honest, I don’t hold much favor towards the human race, naturally this refers to those at the higher positions. Human commoners are just the sa as beastn commoners. I do not hope for war, but we can only do what we can. These matters are out of our control, we can only act as observers, quietly watching, offering help where help is needed. This is what we can do at most.”
