As official representatives of the Avalon fleet, after the fleet docked, Keirandrel and Estel received a warm welcome from His Majesty the Emperor of the Europa Empire. This enthusiasm made the smiles on the faces of the two elves brighten.
Based on their understanding of the human world, the emperor has a considerable authority, which means that the entire Europa Empire is full of expectations for the upcoming start of Avalon and Europa's diplomatic journey. This is undoubtedly good news for the elves who want to expand their influence.
"Thank you for your hospitality, His Majesty Reinhardt, you are really a few visionary people among humans!" Kellandriel tasted the low-alcohol fruit wine brewed by humans in the banquet hall, with a smile on his face.
His Majesty Reinhardt glanced at the other ministers with fake smiles, and raised his glass helplessly and said, "Cheers to the new order of humans and elves!"
"I like this word, for the sake of the new order!" Estel took the initiative to clink glasses with Reinhart, and drank the wine in the cup with the noble momentum that the elves rarely had.
Although it was just a low-alcohol fruit wine, there was still a hint of blush on the faces of the two elves, which was smoother than the most ideal contact they expected.
The Europa Empire agreed to all Avalon's request, such as proclaiming that elves and humans enjoy the same rights and interests within the Europa Empire, and proclaiming a ban on the elves slave trade throughout the territory. The elves can enter and exit at will in various city-states, and even establish their own trade lines. The Europa Empire only charges symbolic tariffs.
Avalon only needs to open his own market to the Europa Empire, open his own large library, and allow human apprentices to enter the academy and elves to take over the education together.
In Reinhardt's eyes, Avalon's elves were like a group of children who had just walked out of the ivory tower. Their tone was a hint of flattery and a hint of aloofness, and they kept swaying on both sides, sometimes a little bit towards this side, sometimes a little bit towards that side.
Moreover, these elves really don’t understand politics. Thousand years are both a period of time for elves, which is a long enough time for them to be unable to distinguish the difference between a country and a city-state.
In the Europa Empire, the elves would enjoy the same rights as humans. This ridiculous condition was not even a little disturbing when Reinhardt agreed. In the war between the EU union and the large trust, a group of lawyers of a million-sized scale was supported in many ways. Even the EU government could not figure out who enjoyed what rights, which depended entirely on the level of lawyers on both sides. If the elves wanted to get started, they would have to have a generation of time.
The prohibition of the elves slave trade is a condition of free gift. From beginning to end, in the human civilization circle, except for a few maverick regimes, no state openly allows the emergence of slave trade, and those industries are illegally operated.
As for trade lines and tariffs, the Europa people had no intention of tying the neck of the elves. For countries like Europa, how much raw materials can an elf regime purchase and how much tariffs can it contribute every year?
However, for a country about to enter industrialization, what does it mean to be a closed market that is isolated overseas and a closed market that has accumulated wealth for thousands of years and has nowhere to be placed? It means amazing benefits. Just by getting the market in Avalon, His Majesty Reinhardt can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, waiting for the consortium to take the initiative to cut off his losses and show goodwill to him in all aspects, not to mention that they have obtained magic knowledge clauses representing the highest productivity of the world.
Think about the large library of elves. It is said that even the people in the Loess District are actively collecting magic knowledge from elves. When Reinhardt just sat here, elves took the initiative to contribute these precious knowledge and were willing to help them cultivate spellcasters in the elves magic system. This feeling made the smile on His Majesty the Emperor's face even brighter.
Keellandriel's smile is also bright. What the elves need most is a window to express their attitude to the outside world. Now they have obtained it, and being able to obtain trade rights is an unexpected gain. Several major city-states in Avalon have always been in a state of resource shortage in various senses.
Whether in terms of arms, building materials, or spellcasters, they are hungry for food. In addition to being safe overseas, they also mean that resources are scarce, and the elves have no channels to purchase outside.
As for the elves slave trade, to be honest, this matter is really not important to the real elves leadership. It is just a propaganda method to increase racial cohesion. How many elves can be captured by humans every year?
Humans have no ability to get close to Avalon. The captured elves are basically unwilling to be managed by Avalon to escape secretly. More of them are wild elves who live in seclusion around the world and give up civilization and inheritance. No one cares about their lives.
The open market, Keilandriel and Estel really don't care. The exquisite aesthetics of the elves and the sense of superiority engraved in their bones make them look at any human product with a contemptuous attitude. They really don't know what humans have to be worthy of the elves' attention.
As for the Great Library and Magic Academy, the former is a magic knowledge ocean established by the elves spellcasters after the era of the elves' kings, after a lot of hardships, it preserves countless incomplete ancient books and complex magic secrets. Not to mention humans, the elves themselves dig out knowledge bit by bit in an archaeological posture.
Humans? Let them learn the ancient elves for fifty years first.
When the Magic Academy thought of this, Kellandriel couldn't help but want to remind the human king who had always been very friendly. After all, Avalon's Magic Academy inherited the orthodox education system of the Elf King's Ting, and the minimum academic system was 80 years. During the Elf King's Ting era, many low-level spell casters often failed to graduate for two or three hundred years.
In short, both sides felt that they had made money, so the atmosphere was quite warm. The Finance Minister could no longer help but start spying on what Avalon produces and what it needs to import. Aster praised the low-alcohol fruit wine in his hands, hoping to buy hundreds of bottles to take them back as samples, and recommend them to the elves of Avalon.
A peaceful atmosphere was finally broken by Kellandriel. She said that a group of slave traders who had attacked the Avalon elves were hiding in Shabak City, hoping that His Majesty Reinhardt would impose sanctions.
Although Reinhardt was ready to sell the American imperialists before this, he still cursed in his heart that the damn American imperialists were simply a group of mobile pests and could not do anything well.
