Chapter 336 Exploring dwarven society

Chapter 336 Exploring dwarven society

The next morning, we were surprised by Ivar and Nisa.

They had prepared a carriage for us to visit Silver City with them.

They said that it was a sightseeing trip since this was our first time in Silver City, but in reality…it was actually a trip to the mithril mines in the guise of a normal trip.

They didn't want anyone finding out about the mithril trade until the time came since there would be some dwarves that would be against this.

But once it happened, it wouldn't be a problem.

So for now, it was best if they kept it a secret.

It seemed like there were troubles that dwarves faced in their own society, but that was just how it worked in any society.

Sometimes, there were some things where it would be better to hide certain details until the time was right.

The reason behind this was mainly because of the anti human dwarf factions.

There weren't many of them, but there were some dwarves that had strong anti sentiments towards humans.

They were in the minority in the dwarven society and they accepted that humans visited from time to time. However, it was different once a human changed from a guest to a customer.

They didn't want humans taking the resources of the dwarves, so they would certainly take action once they learned that humans were here to trade with the dwarves.

Ivar assured us by saying, "I've already sent a message to the Dwarven King. Once he receives it and gives us permission, then there won't be a problem. No matter how crazy those anti human dwarves are, they wouldn't dare do anything once the Dwarven King is involved."

So with this, we were much more assured.

It was just like Ivar said, all we had to do now was wait for a response from the Dwarven King.

Since that was the case, it was best to go along with him and see the mines to check the quality of the mithril.

At the same time, it would do us good to learn more about dwarven society by going sightseeing in the city.

With this, we set off in the carriages that had been prepared for us.

The dwarven made carriages were even better than our own carriages, but that wasn't surprising since they were better at forging in the first place. It wasn't strange that they would be able to make better carriages than human blacksmiths.

After leaving the Silvermine Family manor, we headed to the most populated business street in Silver City.

Since it was early in the morning, there were many dwarves that were out and about minding their own business.

When they saw the carriage though, many of them made way for it since they recognized the Silvermine Family's symbol on the carriage.

It wasn't that they moved out of the way because they were scared, but because they respected it. This was made very clear by the look on their faces as they moved aside.

There were many of them that even hung around as if they were waiting for the Silvermine Family members to come out of the carriage.

Since they were here to sightsee in the city, naturally they had to come out and put on a show.

So the carriage stopped on this street and they came out.

The moment that they did, there were plenty of dwarves that came forward to greet Ivar and Nisa.

Even though they could be considered nobles, it seemed like they didn't have the same mentality as human nobles.

They talked with the commoners like there was no difference between them.

It seemed that quite a few commoners were actually close to Ivar and Nisa.

Since they saw that we had come with the Silvermine couple, they were also friendly towards us.

Everyone was led away by other dwarves and we wandered around this business street.

Since this was a dwarven city, most of the shops here were forges as expected.

The blacksmiths hammering on their anvils created quite the sound that rang out through the city, but it gave the city quite the lively appearance.

Of course, it wasn't just forges that were in the city.

There were plenty of things that people needed and forges alone wouldn't be enough to provide.

They were also general stores and stores for other products.

Haley was walking around with a few dwarf housewives, but as they were walking around…all I could think of was a mother and her children…

Still, the things that they talked about were quite interesting.

"Eh? You have all those interesting things in your human countries? I wish we had that too, but we just don't have enough merchants going out and buying things."

"Right? I tried buying the scented soap from the store the other day, but they told me that they were all out. When I asked when they would have it again, they told me that it would take at least three months before they could get it in stock again."

"Three months? How does it take that long? I was looking forward to buying some."

While it seemed like idle talk between the housewives, it was actually a jackpot of information for Haley.

The idle talk between these housewives told her all about what kind of products they wanted, giving her an idea of what to trade with the dwarves in the future.

Since we would be introduced to the other dwarven lords through Ivar and would be trading with them in the future, it was a good idea to know what the dwarves were willing to buy.

Haley was just preparing for what we needed to do.

And I viewed this as a very important venture.

After all, the relationship that we built with the dwarves would be very important.

If anything happened and we needed to run, this would be a very good place to come to.

So I fully supported her doing business here.

But as I looked around, I couldn't help feeling that dwarves really were the same as humans in terms of society.

They lived the same lives, but it was just that they were dwarves that people regarded it as something different.

If one day everyone could live in harmony…that would be great.
