Journey of the Infinite Wizard - Chapter 1127
The contact between humans and elves began in such a special environment.
As far as elves are concerned, they undoubtedly know humans, and they have known the existence of humans from a very early time. It was in the years before the Great Flood, they already knew about the existence of human beings. However, at that time, they did not give birth to the idea and psychology of contact with human beings. The elves at that time were far less powerful than they are now, and the population was much smaller than it is now. No matter what their mentality, the elves did not come into contact with humans at that time.
Of course, they never rose up to trade with humans, so as to use human manpower to find magical resources for the elves.
Only because of the elves at that time, their magical civilization has just started, and the demand for magic resources is not as large as it is now. Therefore, the elves do not value whether they are in contact with humans. Moreover, human beings at that time did not show the advantage that they had to let the elves touch them.
After the Great Flood, both humans and elves suffered losses to varying degrees. Compared with the elves, human beings almost fell and fell apart for a while. And the magic resources that the elves had stored in the past years were all consumed due to a great flood. Therefore, after the Great Flood, the elves, who desperately needed magic resources, began a new round of external exploration.
Also because of this great flood, the barren world has suddenly added a lot of new resources that have never been seen or heard of. Moreover, there are many types, and the elves also learned of a slightly considerable reserve scale as a result of preliminary investigations. However, although the wizard’s magic civilization is advanced, it is by no means advanced to the point of omnipotence.
Some magical resources that are easy to explore and mine, the elves can naturally mine easily, but some places are not easy to mine. Even the elves cannot collect too many magical resources. Their population is too small, although compared with many human city states, they are a powerful city state. However, when it comes to the types and quantities of magic resources they need, the lack of population of the elves becomes more and more stretched.
At this time, the explorers and mages who explored the elves were surprised to discover that the civilizations and savage humans were backward and savage. After experiencing a major flood, it turned out to be more and more prosperous after the disaster. Their civilization has progressed very quickly, and the speed of regaining and renewing civilization is also very fast. They not only recreated civilization in a very short period of time. More on the foundation, the development is quite strong, and their civilization progresses very fast, even the elves are surprised when they see it.
However, these are nothing in the eyes of the elves, and the civilizations between the two sides are not comparable at all.
However, the elves are also interested in the interesting things that happen in the human city-states. For example, in human society, the increasingly prosperous commercial trade has made the elves very interested. Of course, their interest is only the prosperous business itself. For those local products and yellow and white things, it is not worth the degree that the elves are also tempted.
What they care about is business itself.
Because the elves see that humans use commercial trade activities to bring different products and commodities from one place to another through trade routes to different places. The circulation of commodities is a kind of civilization, and because of this golden route, it has begun to develop vigorously. These commercial routes are equivalent to a single blood vessel, revitalizing all human beings. And because of these ‘vessels’, human beings continue to deliver nutrients, and their own civilization continues to grow and develop as a result.
Therefore, the elves aroused a kind of contact with humans, and then started commercial trade activities. Let humans with a huge population base collect the magic resources they need for them, and what they pay is nothing more than gold, silver and other ‘worthless’ things. These days, for the civilization of the elves themselves, it is really nothing. The development of their civilization is not very dependent on these things, except for food, cloth and other life-related things. Gold and silver, in the civilization of the elves, are just things pretending to be ornaments. It is not the legal currency for trade settlement in the daily life of the elves.
Gold and silver have such a status in the kingdom of the elves. Their legal currency is a stone with traces of magical elements, beautifully processed by the elves. And this kind of stone has a variety of functions, and its texture is very hard, not easy to damage. Also because the elves are magical civilization, the magic stone, which the elves call the ‘magic stone’, is used as their own legal currency for various daily settlements!
Although the elves also mine gold, silver, gems and the like. However, it is more used as decorations or building materials. The special civilization structure makes their thoughts and daily forms fundamentally different from those of human beings outside. However, to trade with humans, you must use things like gold, silver or gems.
These are the values of ordinary things in the elven kingdom, but in the human society, they are the things they seek for. Although the level of civilization of the elves is very advanced, the advanced ones are also limited. The goods they can produce are incredibly richer than humans, but there is a limit. When trading with humans, perhaps at the beginning, they could still rely on the advanced nature of their civilization to dump goods to the cities of humanity. However, their contact with humans ~www.mtlnovel.com~ only uses humans to purchase magical resources they need. For commodities produced in the human world itself, it is difficult to compete with elves’ commodities.
In other words, elves may not be willing to buy goods produced by humans. On the other hand, humans have a strong need for all commodities produced by elves.
However, when the two parties continue to deepen their contact, humans will also discover the specific price of the item the elves specify to purchase. Although not necessarily, you can truly understand the specific value of these things. However, since the elves want something that humans do not understand, they can also guess the specific price of the things that the elves need.
Then, the elves will not necessarily continue to purchase all kinds of resources from humans at low prices. At that time, human beings must find ways to make up for the losses they have suffered in the long-term commercial trade with the elves. Even if they are still profitable in fact, the greedy and suspicious humans will certainly not think so.
They will not be happy to be satisfied with the status quo, but will continue to work hard, and even try to reverse the situation that is completely unfavorable to them.
Either through the war, or play some tricks on the supply. ()
