Chapter 866 How do you dare to say that I want it all?
“Do you still have those alien bones in the Permanently Frozen Mountains, Earl Langton?” Princess Catherine spoke abruptly.
This was the first time she spoke during the winter hunt. Her voice wasn't very loud, but it was attractive enough.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by Catherine's words.
After all, she is the queen of the future kingdom, so it is normal for everyone to take her seriously.
Although Lu Xingshi did not expect that the other party would ask this question and was wary in his heart, he replied with a smile: "Of course, if necessary, Your Highness, I can transport the bones of the aliens here."
He could see that the other party wanted it, so he was polite and tried to retreat.
"That's great, I need them just right." However, Princess Catherine didn't follow the routine at all. She agreed without hesitation like a brainless fool.
This made Lu Xingshi somewhat unable to get off the stage.
How could Princess Catherine not know this result? However, due to her disguise and power, everyone would only regard her as a small willfulness.
"Of course there is no problem. I will prepare them for Her Highness the Princess when I get back. I just don't know what the Princess needs so many bones for."
"After all, this is just a pile of useless alien bones." Lu Xingshi said.
When the king heard this, he nodded: "Katherine, Earl Langton is right. Why do you need so much?"
He knew that Lu Xingshi's idea was nothing more than to use the bones of foreign races to generate income.
If Catherine only wanted thirty or even thirty or fifty, he would understand, but wanting all of them would be a bit absurd.
And when the number is large, it looks unlucky. If the palace is full of corpses, it will be so gloomy, and this kind of behavior will be criticized by other kingdoms.
"I don't think you can just ask Earl Langton to send you one corpse of each alien race." The king gave a solution.
Having said it all, it would definitely be inappropriate for Lu Xingshi not to give him anything, but to ask for it all would be even more inappropriate.
So, if you want it, just choose the same one.
Princess Catherine had an uneasy look on her face: "Listen to your father."
Her goal has been achieved. For her, she doesn't want everything at all. She naturally understands that this is unrealistic.
The real goal is to get enough bones.
"That's just right. Before I came, I dug out the bones of the frost dragon. The skeleton is very complete. When I go back, I will arrange for someone to deliver it to Her Royal Highness as soon as possible." Lu Xingshi said with a smile. The other party gave him the steps. Naturally, we went down the slope.
When the other nobles heard that there were actually dragon bones, their eyes couldn't help but light up.
If they could get one and put it in the castle as a decoration, it would definitely be majestic enough.
I have heard of frost giants before, but they are not as tempting as ice giants.
"I didn't expect that there were even the bones of giant dragons under the Permafrost Mountains." A little surprise appeared on the king's face, but he didn't really need it.
Although he does not have the dragon's bones, he does have a piece of dragon crystal in the treasure house.
This is not the equipment that can be seen but not used, but the genuine extraordinary materials, but no one in the royal family can use them, so they are preserved.
There is even the head of a winter wolf in the royal treasury. Yes, it is the winter wolf on the permanently frozen mountains. The winter wolf had already died once before, but it was assimilated by a king and came back to life.
"Yes, Your Majesty the King, it seems to be a mass grave of a foreign race, but it will take a long time to completely dig it out." Lu Xingshi responded.
Then Lu Xingshi briefly introduced the situation to everyone and made an indirect advertisement.
The biggest problem in the Black Earth Territory is the lack of money.
As long as you have money, the rest is not a big problem.
So if you can, let's advertise. The people who can sit in this king's tent are all high-ranking officials in the kingdom. Their net worth is not comparable to that of new nobles like Lu Xingshi. If they miss a little bit of wealth, it will be astronomical. Numbers.
After listening to Lu Xingshi's introduction, everyone was planning to purchase a batch of alien bones from Lu Xingshi.
They don't need the craftsmen of the Black Earth Territory to build them. As great nobles, they don't look down on the rough craftsmanship of the Black Earth Territory. They have their own craftsmen.
It's just that it's not easy to speak now. After all, we are still at the banquet of Dongshou. How can we discuss business here? It would be too shameful.
And when they were purchasing, they didn't come to buy in person, they just asked their subordinates to go to the Black Territory to buy.
Want to buy directly from Lu Xingshi? Lu Xingshi didn't mind, but the nobles would. To them, it was an insult.
Unfortunately, Lu Xingshi was not someone they could insult.
So they would rather follow the time-consuming process than choose the shortcut.
Lu Xingshi didn't tell too long, but just talked about the core. He noticed that everyone present was obviously eager to buy, but he also understood that haste makes waste, so he quickly sat back and restored his original attitude. .
The banquet in the king's tent continued, and this time it was much more harmonious. There were no longer any criticisms like before.
The dancers came in and started singing and dancing.
Lu Xingshi was not very interested in this. It was just a piece of meat moving around. What was there to see?
As for the food provided, based on Lu Xingshi's taste, it can only be described as average.
It's not like he hasn't eaten delicious food before, let alone a modern person.
The variety of modern foods may not be healthy, but a lot of seasoning and a lot of hard work are guaranteed to taste good.
The food here is not only not necessarily delicious, but also not necessarily healthy. For example, in this vegetable soup, I saw something very familiar.
It is called Ma Bi in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica".
If you eat too much, you will see ghosts and walk wildly, and if you take it for a long time, you will be able to see the gods.
It is said that this thing is a special treat for the royal family, that is, it can be eaten by these dukes and marquis during the holidays.
Nobles of other levels only hear its name but don't know what it is.
Lu Xingshi felt that the royal family was coming to an end.
I don’t know how the royal chefs cooked. They may have added some extraordinary means. Anyway, after this group of people drank, they all looked like they had become immortals.
When I recovered, I was naturally overwhelmed.
Lu Xingshi didn't move at all, and the king also noticed it, and immediately reminded him tactfully: "Earl Langton, this bowl of vegetable soup is extremely delicious, why don't you try it?"
"No, I have a taboo against certain vegetables in this vegetable soup. It's easy to get weak when I eat it." Lu Xingshi said seriously.
The taboos are definitely gone, but eating too much gristle is true.
"Grand Duke Haipa, why don't you help me solve it?"
"Let this bowl of vegetable soup serve as a testimony of our friendship." Lu Xingshi said with a smile.
Everyone thought for a moment that Lu Xingshi was ready to make peace with Grand Duke Haipa.
Naturally, Grand Duke Haipa also had the same idea. If he took the next step, in his opinion, the past would be wiped out.
But if you don't answer, you will naturally be confronting Lu Xingshi. They have already handed you the steps. Besides, this time, it is really your first move.
"Then I will accept Earl Langton's kindness." Grand Duke Hypa agreed first and then said, "May our friendship last forever."
If there was no conflict of interest, Grand Duke Haipa would certainly not mind becoming good friends with Lu Xingshi, Earl of Langton.
If you really want to wait until there is a benefit, then you must do whatever you want to do.
There are few real feelings between nobles and nobles, but more interests.
"That's great." After Lu Xingshi finished speaking, he called on the servants on the side to deliver vegetable soup to Grand Duke Haipa.
Grand Duke Haipa was also very cooperative and drank it all in one big gulp.
Lu Xingshi murmured in his heart: 'I don't know if it's addictive enough...'
Ma Bi should be a rare thing in the kingdom. If he got addicted to it, Grand Duke Haipa would be said to be useless.
Otherwise, he was kind enough to give the other person food? Grand Duke Haipa is not as valuable as the divine winter wolf, who can turn Lu Xingshi's enemies into friends.
He was eager to send the other person to die.
However, he also knew that the possibility of addiction was unlikely. After extraordinary treatment, the addiction might have been eliminated.
This also made Lu Xingshi think of one thing, that is, Chemical Bliss seems to be quite promising in this world and can be used to harm this group of nobles.
…
Countless runes intertwined with magic appeared in the magic mirror. The queen looked at the runes, and the blood in the crucible became thicker and thicker.
"Blood honey potion? No, no, no, this is blood poison potion..."
"I hope my dear king likes this potion."
The queen couldn't stop smiling, and she wanted to stop, but her body couldn't control it.
There is a price to pay for using the magic mirror.
The price is that her soul seed will gradually become unstable, and her elementalized mental power will also show a certain amplification effect.
Then the emotions will start to get out of control, and the body will want to get rid of the control of emotions, which will take a long time.
Just like a little joy just now, it will turn into ecstasy, and it will take at least ten minutes to calm down.
As for why to use it? Naturally, because the magic mirror is not only a usable witchcraft, but also the inheritance of her meditation method.
As she continues to use the magic mirror, the knowledge she needs about witchcraft, alchemy, pharmacy, etc. will appear in the magic mirror.
This knowledge is used by dark wizards, and every one of them is cruel, bloody, and crazy.
Otherwise, how could she become a dark wizard so smoothly? Not only the royal family's supply and own efforts, but also the help of the magic mirror.
The reason why the king did not notice the magic mirror was naturally because the magic mirror had a disguise on it. Except for its owner, no one else could detect the special features of the magic mirror.
I would just think it was an ordinary mirror.
"Cherish your last winter hunt." The queen finally stopped laughing and her expression became much more solemn: "The side effects of the magic mirror must be resolved as soon as possible."
How to solve it? It's very simple, just water the magic mirror with the blood of ten virgins every month.
