Wizard of All Souls

Dwarf Tanley sniffed Harvey with his nose like a puppy.

"I brought the wine, all of which are high-quality fire tongue wine. There are fifty barrels in total, and they are all placed on the airship. If you want to open a barrel first, you can try it out." Harvey laughed.

"You know that's not what I'm talking about." The dwarf Tanley scratched his beard and said anxiously.

"oh."

Harvey had a suddenly realized expression, "Is that what you're talking about?"

"That's right, that's right." Dwarf Tanley nodded quickly.

"I brought the things."

Harvey took a small wine bottle from his arms.

Dwarf Tanley jumped to his feet and snatched the bottle in one fell swoop, his eyes glowing.

Gently pull out the cork from the bottle mouth, and the rich aroma of wine immediately spreads around.

Many people swallowed their saliva "gurgling" and looked straight at the dwarf Tanley's hand.

Sauron, who doesn't like drinking very much, was shocked when he smelled it, and sighed secretly: "What kind of wine is this, why is it so fragrant?"

Dwarf Tanli smelled the wine intoxicatedly, drooling and exclaimed, "That's it."

"I don't think so much." Harvey shook his head, "Ordinary fire tongue wine has a concentration of only 79, I made a bottle of concentrated fire tongue wine with a concentration of 90 according to your request, and I tasted it when I made it After a few sips, the taste is much worse than ordinary fire tongue wine."

"Tch, you don't understand the goods."

The dwarf Tanley gave Harvey a disdainful look, and stuffed the wine bottle into his clothes like a treasure.

Then, everyone walked towards the prepared reception.

Along the way, Sauron looked around curiously. After Harvey's conversation with them and the information he collected, he had a deeper understanding of the dwarves and the place he was now.

Dwarves are known to be good at forging.

Dwarves love to drink, and many people know it.

However, because most of the dwarves live in the ore and do not see the sun day and night, they grow very little food, barely enough to eat, not enough to make wine, and their skills are poor.

All forged weapons and humans will be exchanged for various living materials and wine.

But not everyone can cooperate with dwarves.

The long-term partner of the dwarves is the family of the Duke of Baligu. Harvey and others succeeded in getting on the line with the dwarves only under the introduction of the Baligu family.

"This is Turin, the city of dwarves?"

Sauron looked around curiously, but there were very few dwarves around, most of them were humans.

"You are wrong, this is Bull Town, a town specially built to communicate with dwarves, and it is also the best weapon selling town in the Eastern Continent." Harvey pointed to the high mountains in the distance, "Turin City is over there Bud In the mountain's body, there is the dwarf's lair."

"I see."

The doubts in Sauron's heart were instantly resolved.

...

A group of them came to a luxurious tavern.

The rest of the entourage waited on the first floor of the tavern, and Harvey, Sauron, Tanley and Alex walked up to the second floor.

On the huge second floor, only two dwarves were sitting.

The two dwarves ate and drank a roast duck with their left hand and a chicken with their right hand on a table full of food.

"Dorman, Watt, haha, I'm back."

Dwarf Tanley took out the wine bottle from his arms, waved it and rushed towards the two dwarves.

"Have you brought it?"

"Give me a quick drink."

The three dwarves carefully poured the wine with their wine glasses.

A bottle of wine is exactly three glasses.

The dwarves took a sip, all showing intoxicated expressions.

Then, regardless of others, he started drinking and eating meat.

"Who and who are these?"

Looking at the three dwarves who were happily eating and drinking, Sauron only felt dizzy.

The dwarves were so much alike in face, outline, haircut, and clothing, with so little difference in voice, that he found himself unable to recognize Tanley.

Sauron rubbed his eyes, "He? Or him? Or is he? Who is Tanley!"

Taking a sneak peek at the others, he realized that none of them were paying attention to him.

Sauron breathed a sigh of relief and decided to pretend nothing happened.

After the three dwarves drank the wine, their attention finally fell on the people waiting by the side.

"Harvey, my friend, I didn't expect to meet again so soon."

"This wine is good, bring more next time."

"Dorman, Watt, long time no see."

Harvey and the three dwarves laughed and hugged each other.

After the four of them separated, Harvey's face suddenly became solemn, "I heard that the question I asked you last time has been answered?"

Officially because of hearing the news, Harvey hurried over in the six-dragon airship.

The three dwarves glanced at each other, and the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared.

After a long time, the dwarf Tanley came forward and shook his head at Harvey, "Sorry."

"Can't you?"

Harvey's face darkened suddenly.

"Although His Majesty the king rejected your request, since you are our most loyal ally, our Majesty decided to have a good chat with you," said the dwarf Tanley.

"Really?" Harvey's eyes lit up, "Actually, I also have some things I want to talk to Your Majesty."

The dwarf Tanli glanced at the sky outside the window, "The goods should be almost packed, let's set off quickly and return to Turin before it gets dark."

"Excuse me." Harvey nodded.

"Uncle Harvey."

Sauron gently tugged on Harvey's sleeve, why don't you come here instead of visiting Turin City?

Come back next time, I don't know when it will be.

Maybe for a lifetime?

Harvey patted Sauron on the shoulder and said to the dwarves, "This is my father's grandson, can you take him with you?"

"Anyone from the Albert family? No problem." Dwarf Tanley nodded.

"Hey, I'll go too." Alex jumped out from the side.

"Your Majesty did not invite you." Dwarf Tanley refused decisively.

"Why is this so?" Alex was dejected all of a sudden, "Our Baligu family has been your allies for thousands of years, and it's actually not as good as the Albert family for decades."

"If you also send fifty barrels of wine every month, you can enter Turin whenever you want." Dwarf Tanley said directly without mercy.

"……never mind."

Alex smiled wryly.

Although the wines that Harvey sent were not top-quality, they were also top-quality, with hundreds of gold coins per barrel.

Although the Duke of Baligu didn't care much about the money, the problem was that they were out of stock!

Brewing needs food, workers, and wineries.

Especially good wine has extremely high requirements on the quality of grain, the skills of workers, the application of wine making tools...etc.

In addition, the climate impact is also very large.

Originally a batch of high-quality wine, maybe because the weather suddenly became colder and hotter, the taste was a bit off.

The annual output of this level of wine is only one or two thousand barrels in the whole country, which is not enough to be distributed to the nobles in the various provinces. If you have to give five or six hundred barrels to the dwarves...

It's not impossible, it's just too much trouble and the loss outweighs the gain.

Alex patted Harvey on the shoulder, flatteringly said: "Your territory makes a lot of good wine, when will you give us some?"

"Isn't it given to you every year?"

"Not enough to drink at all!"

"The problem is that we don't have enough." Harvey was also very helpless, "There are tens of millions of people in the territory, and the adventurers in Parazu Province consume a lot of wine, and the winery does not produce enough wine day and night."

"It feels like the combined population of your province of Doria accounts for half of the total population of the kingdom, right?" Jia Li said depressedly.

"For the time being, the population of the kingdom will increase in the future."

"Maybe... If that day really comes, should we be happy? Or sad?" Jiali smiled wryly and didn't continue talking about this topic.
