NOVPUBIt wasn't just the elder alone who raised a brow and looked at me with a strange look.
It was also the High Priestess and Aisha who did the same.
This made it quite clear that none of them had an idea of what I meant by these words, but I wasn't in a rush to tell them as I moved around looking at the scenery around us.
With the way that I moved, it really seemed like I was truly enjoying the scenery around us.
They just watched as I moved around the trees, looking at the different plants and flowers that were around us.
Finally, the elder couldn't take it anymore as she said, "Yes this scenery is nice, but have you found anything interesting?"
I turned back to look at her with a smile before saying, "Yes, the scenery itself."
"The scenery?" The elder asked as she raised her brow again.
This time when she looked at me, it seemed like she thought that I was crazy or something with the way that I was talking about the scenery. It was just that I was the furthest thing from crazy.
In fact, I did have a plan when I mentioned the scenery.
It was just that it would be hard for her or the other elves to accept this plan, which made me a bit hesitant to bring it up. That was why I was acting like I was keeping them in suspense.
But in the end, I still had to say something.
"This kind of lovely scenery should be shared with others, don't you think?"
Once they heard this, their expressions changed.
The elder had the most serious one out of the three of them as she narrowed her eyes to look at me, almost as if she was accusing me of something.
I felt a bit awkward seeing her like this, but I didn't turn away as I looked back at her.
In the end, the elder asked, "Share with who exactly?"
That was when I revealed a faint smile that had a trace of bitterness.
After all, the tone that she said this with already made it clear that she had figured out what I was talking about and at the same time, it didn't seem like she was happy about my idea.
Still, I said, "If you want money, then this is the best way to do this. Not to mention, this isn't one of the important places of the Elven Kingdom."
The elder looked around this place before she turned back to me.
It seemed that she agreed with the latter part of what I said, but it didn't seem like she was in agreement with the first part of what I said.
That wasn't strange since what I was asking was letting those that they didn't trust onto their homeland. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
There was no one that would be able to accept this that easily.
But I still remained firm in this matter since it was one of the better ideas to earn money. At the same time, it wasn't something that required a lot of investment on the part of the Elven Kingdom.
Though if they were willing to invest a bit, they would be able to earn far more than just running this passively.
It took a while of this silence before the elder finally said with a sigh, "Tell me what you're planning."
This wasn't her agreeing to my plan, this was just her saying that she was willing to hear me out.
That was at least more than enough.
"If you limit them to just this surrounding area, then there won't be a problem since they won't be that deep in the territory of the Elven Kingdom."
We started going through the different parts of the forest that the outsiders would be allowed to approach.
What I was pitching was just the kind of jungle escape that humans enjoyed.
After all, what humans wanted the most was to rest from the hustle and bustle of their normal lives.
This forest would be the perfect place for that.
The elder still seemed to have some doubts about this, but it also seemed like she was slowly being convinced by my words.
"How much would you say that you would be willing to pay for this?"
A faint smile appeared on my lips when I heard this question.
She wouldn't ask this if she wasn't considering it.
But I couldn't give an exaggerated answer at this point or it would actually hurt my point.
As such, I stroked my chin as if I was thinking about it before raising one finger.
"Ten gold coins?" The elder seemed a bit disappointed when she heard this.
But I wagged that finger before saying, "At least a hundred. Putting aside the money to travel to this place, I would pay at least a hundred gold coins to stay here for a while."
The elder's eyes lit up a bit when she heard this, but then she said, "But each person takes up a lot of space, so it isn't as if we would have that many people."
"I said that's how much I'm willing to spend to stay here, but that doesn't mean that's all that I'm willing to spend. If there were some big tree houses and some amenities, then there's no limit to how much I would be willing to spend."
The High Priestess narrowed her eyes at this and glared at me.
I knew why, so I said, "This is only in this one area and there's no need for the elves to do anything. And when I say amenities, it won't be what you think it is. Rather than luxuries, it'll all be about getting closer to nature."
This was knowledge that I was drawing on from my past life, but I was certain that it would work.
After all, the targets would be the rich humans.
And at the same time, this was their only chance to enter the Elven Kingdom.
There was no doubt that this would sell well.
