"This … This thing, do you still have it?"
Under the astonished gazes, Huo Lie, whose face was originally filled with anger, timidly asked. His expression was like that of a child who was afraid of losing his candy.
"Yes, but, not much …"
Qin Yichen said with a chuckle, as if he had expected it.
Hearing these words, Huo Lie's eyes dimmed. Indeed, good wine could only be encountered and not sought. However, Qin Yichen's following words caused Huo Lie's expression to become excited once again.
"However, it's not a problem for Sir to drink for three to five years."
Qin Yichen said with a smile.
"Haha … Good! Very good! "
Hearing these words, Huo Lie laughed heartily, his face brimming with satisfaction.
Within the Elven Race, there were not many who did not know of Huo Lie's reputation as a drunkard. Previously, he appeared to be somewhat restless because of the Liquor Worm.
Originally, a High Elf with Huo Lie's status would not participate in any commodity gathering.
After all, at their age, their standards had already reached an unimaginable level. The things that ordinary merchants brought out would not be able to attract their attention.
In fact, among the dazzling lineup of rare goods, Huo Lie did not take a fancy to any of them.
However, he would participate almost every year, and the results would not change.
This matter caused Huo Lie to become a laughingstock among the other High Elves of similar status.
Huo Lie was not the only High Elf who drank heavily. However, no one was as bored as him and came here to try their luck.
"Haha, those old things, I'll wait for you to come and beg me!"
Huo Lie's face was full of smiles, as if he had already imagined the envious and jealous gazes of those old fellows when he brought back these exceptional wines.
"Mn, let them beg me, and I'll reward them with a gourd. No, no, a cup. Mn, such an excellent wine, one cup is enough!"
Compared to the wine that they usually drank, the thing that he drank just now was simply immortal jade dew. After thinking about it carefully, he could not help but wonder if the thing that he drank just now was worthy of being called wine.
Qin Yichen looked at Huo Lie with a faint smile, not saying anything to disturb him.
After quite a while, Huo Lie suppressed the excitement in his heart as he suddenly thought of a matter. Such a fine wine was definitely not cheap. Even he had never tasted such a fine wine before. How much would it be worth?
"I'm willing to use a pill that can extend my life by a hundred years in exchange for a gourd … Little brother, what do you think?"
Huo Lie clenched his teeth and said with a pained expression.
Hearing this, the elves and merchants in the surroundings were in disbelief.
Generally speaking, when exchanging goods, the elves would only exchange things that could nourish the mind.
Many merchants had gone through untold hardships just to exchange for some life-prolonging pills from the High Elves. In the end, the number of people who could exchange for it could be counted on one's fingers.
However, this brat, who was thought to be reckless, had actually casually taken out a gourd and obtained the approval of the High Elf, Huo Lie!
Moreover, from the looks of it, he seemed to be worried that the latter would not agree.
Mei Le 'er, who was standing at the side, was also a little surprised. In fact, she also knew about the Elf Clan's drunkenness. However, even the fine wine that she had painstakingly obtained did not attract the Elf Clan's attention. In fact, Huo Lie had even spat it out after taking a sip.
The situation at that time was extremely awkward.
Fortunately, Mei Le 'er was prepared for that silent humiliation. She had grasped the High Elf's love for beauty and managed to avert disaster.
"Deacon Huo Lie, could it be that you think this gourd is only worth so little?"
However, under the countless envious gazes, Qin Yichen did not gratefully agree. Instead, he spoke with a hint of displeasure.
Hearing this, almost everyone was shocked.
How precious was a pill that could extend one's life by a hundred years?!
Who knew how many almighties had spent a huge price to obtain a pill that could extend one's life from the elves in order to delay the end of their lifespan. However, this fellow in front of them had only taken out a gourd of some unknown item. Huo Lie had offered a pill that could extend one's life by a hundred years in exchange, yet he was still not satisfied!
"Deacon Huo, this thing is not only delicious, but it is also greatly beneficial to cultivation. I believe that Deacon Huo has also felt it, right?"
Qin Yichen shook his head and asked.
Hearing this, Huo Lie nodded with a grave expression.
Not only had he never tasted such a delicacy before, but he had also felt every cell in his body letting out a comfortable groan when he took a sip.
To be able to cause such a reaction in the body of an expert like him, one could see how precious this wine was.
Indeed, strictly speaking, the value of a pill that could extend one's life by a hundred years was not as good as this wine.
Furthermore, only the first pill that could extend one's life would have the best effect. The second pill would be greatly reduced. If one were to take it again, the effect would be negligible.
"Little brother, may I have a word with you?"
Huo Lie held the gourd that contained the Drunken Immortal Wine and had no intention of letting it go. He blinked his eyes and asked with a trace of inquiry.
"Deacon Huo is too polite. Please."
Qin Yichen smiled. His purpose for coming here was not to exchange for a pill that could extend one's life. In his eyes, that kind of thing could not even be compared to the tea of the Elf Clan.
This time, his purpose was to get close to the upper echelons of the Elf Clan. This was exactly what he wanted.
Immediately after, under the envious gazes, Huo Lie used a friendly attitude that he had never shown to a foreign merchant and brought Qin Yichen away.
"This fellow, could it be that he really knows the princess of the Elf Clan?"
Looking at Qin Yichen's indifferent back, Mei Lele could not help but have some doubts in her heart. From the beginning to the end, that fellow had never looked at her directly!
"Hmph, sooner or later, I will make you apologize for your rudeness!"
Thinking of this, a strange feeling rose in Mei Lele's heart. She bit her red lips and muttered to herself.
She was not an unruly person, but Qin Yichen's disregard made her, who was enjoying the countless stunned gazes, very uncomfortable.
After a while, the Merchandise Festival continued. However, because of this small interlude, the rest of the Merchandise Festival seemed to have lost its luster.
As for the final result of this Merchandise Festival, perhaps no one cared about it anymore.
