Journey of the Infinite Wizard
Chapter 1127: Magic Stone
The contact between humans and elves began in such a special environment.
As far as the elves are concerned, they undoubtedly know about humans. They have known the existence of humans from a very early age. That was in the years before the Great Flood, they already knew the existence of human beings. However, at that time, they did not have the idea and psychology of contacting human beings. The elves at that time were far less powerful than they are now, and the population was much smaller than now. No matter what kind of psychology it was, the elves had no contact with humans at that time.
Of course, they never rose up at that time, traded with humans, and used the huge manpower of humans to find magical resources for elves.
Just because the elves at that time, their magic civilization had just started, and the demand for magic resources was not as great as it is now. Therefore, whether to contact humans or not is not valued by elves. Moreover, the human beings at that time did not show themselves the advantage that they had to be contacted by the elves.
And when the great flood passed, both humans and elves suffered losses to varying degrees. Compared with the elves, human beings were almost sunk and destroyed for a time. And the magical resources that the elves had stored in the past years were all consumed because of a great flood. Therefore, after the great flood passed, the elves, who desperately needed magic resources, started a new round of foreign exploration.
Also because of this great flood, the barren world suddenly added many new resources that had never been seen or heard of. And there are many types, and the results of the preliminary investigation by the elves also learned a slightly considerable reserve size. However, although the magic civilization of the elves is advanced, it is by no means advanced to the point of omnipotence.
Some magic resources that are easy to explore and mine, the elves can naturally mine easily, but some places that are not easy to mine. Even elves cannot collect too many magic 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 magical resources they need, the insufficient population of elves is becoming more and more stretched.
At this time, the explorers and mages who were exploring outside the world were surprised to find that those former civilizations were backward and barbaric humans. After experiencing a major flood, even after the disaster, it became more and more prosperous. Their civilization has progressed very quickly, and the speed of regaining their civilization is also very fast. Not only have they recreated civilization in a very short period of time. Even based on the foundation, the development is quite strong, and the speed of their civilization progress is so fast that even the elves are surprised to 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 happened in the human city-state. For example, in human society, the increasingly prosperous commercial trade has attracted the elves' great interest. certainly,
Their interest is only the prosperous business itself, and the products and yellow and white things from various places are not worthy of the level that the elves are tempted.
What they care about is business itself.
Because the elves saw that human beings brought different products and commodities from one place to different places through commercial trade activities through trade routes. The circulation of commodities has caused human civilization to develop vigorously because of this golden route. These commercial routes are equivalent to blood vessels one by one, revitalizing all human beings. And human beings also continue to transport nutrients because of these 'vessels', and their own civilization has also continued to grow and develop.
Therefore, the elves developed a kind of contact with human beings, 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 are nothing to the civilization of the elves themselves nowadays. The development of their civilization does not rely heavily on these things, except for food, cloth and other life-related things. Gold and silver, in the civilization of the elves, are just some decorations and the like. It is not the legal currency for trade settlement in the daily life of the elves.
Gold and silver are such a status in the kingdom of elves. Their legal currency is a stone containing traces of magical elements, which is beautifully processed by the elves. Moreover, this kind of stone has a variety of functions, and its texture is very hard and not easy to damage. It is also because the elves are a magical civilization, so they use this magic stone, which the elves call 'magic stone', as their own legal currency for various daily settlements!
Although the elves also mine gold, silver, gems and things like that. However, more is used as decorations, or building materials. The special structure of civilization makes their thoughts and daily forms fundamentally different from the human beings in the outside world. However, to trade with humans, things like gold, silver or gems must be used.
These are the values of ordinary things in the kingdom of elves, but in the human society, they are what they are after. Although the level of civilization of the elves is very advanced, the advanced ones are also limited. The goods they can produce are incomparably richer than humans, but there is a limit. To trade with humans, perhaps at the beginning, they could still rely on the advancement of their own civilization to dump commodities to human city-states. However, when they come into contact with humans, they only use humans to purchase the magic resources they need. For goods produced in the human world itself, it is difficult to compete with that of the elves.
In other words, elves may not be willing to buy goods produced by humans. On the contrary, human beings have a strong need for all commodities produced by elves.
However, when the two parties continue to deepen the relationship, humans will also find out what the elves have designated to buy, and its specific price. Although not necessarily, it is possible to truly understand the specific value of these things. However, from the fact that the elves want such things that humans don't understand at all, they can also guess the specific price of what the elves need.
Then, at that time, the elves may not continue to purchase all kinds of resources from humans at low prices. At that time, human beings must try to make up for the losses they have suffered in the long-term business and trade with elves. Even if they are still making money in fact, greedy and suspicious human beings will definitely 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 this situation that is completely unfavorable to them.
Either through war, or by playing tricks on supply. ()
