C378 Bargaining

Kulun Juele looked at Luo Jianjian and Lin Zimo guiltily, and could only convey the message according to the King.

"Why would they destroy the bridge after crossing the river? "Royal Father told me to pick you and Miss Jianjian up and enter the palace together to receive your rewards."

"Accept the reward?" Is the Prince sure? Are you trying to trick us into entering the palace to silence them? "

Luo Jianjian really did not have a good impression of these people from the Hailuan Royal Family. Kulun Juele was at a loss for words due to her words and could only look towards Lin Zimo, who was at the side, for help.

Lin Zimo was helpless, so he could only speak up.

"Jianjian, the prince isn't that kind of person."

"Not that kind of person has done that kind of thing!" Look, didn't they take over the ship that I painstakingly built? They took over the sea cargo, and now they take over the ship? Let me tell you, Kulun Juele, even if you have this ship, you will never have a second ship without me, and you won't be able to catch much fish! "

Luo Jianjian was infuriated. If this were left in the palace, she would have been sent to jail long ago. Fortunately, Kulun Juele tolerated it and didn't bother with it.

"I can understand why Miss Jianjian is angry, but when you enter the palace later, you better not talk to me like this. If we anger Royal Father, even I will not be able to save you. "

After Kulun Juele finished speaking, he signaled Lin Zimo to bring Luo Jianjian with him and follow him into the palace. The people from Association of 100 were waiting on the spot.

Although Luo Jianjian was angry, she still wanted an explanation, so she followed Lin Zimo and Kulun Juele into the palace in a huff.

The king was waiting in the dining room. The long table was already filled with all kinds of food, mostly seafood.

When Luo Jianjian saw the seafood on the table, she thought coldly in her heart. Wasn't it all their hard work that caught these seafood dishes and gave them such a bargain?

"Royal Father, I've brought Luo Jianjian and Lin Zimo."

Kulun Juele saluted and reported. The king quickly looked up with a kind smile.

"Oh, sit, sit. Coincidentally, the royal kitchen was already filled with dishes and it was still warm. After working hard for so many days, the two of you should hurry up and take your seats.

"Thank you, Royal Father."

"Thank you, your majesty."

Lin Zimo bowed politely to show his gratitude, but Luo Jianjian held her head up high and refused to bow. It was useless for Lin Zimo to pull her, but luckily, the king didn't care, so he managed to get away with it.

After taking her seat, Luo Jianjian looked at the fragrant food and couldn't help but swallow her saliva. However, the king didn't use his chopsticks. Who would dare to eat first?

The king was probably not hungry, nor was he in a hurry to use his chopsticks.

Miss Jianjian is truly a prodigy. I heard that you are someone from the Tianqi Kingdom. That day, there was no sea, and even the lake was not very large. I wonder how you came up with this great idea for a ship? "

Luo Jianjian's eyes, however, were only filled with the delicacies of the mountains and the sea before her. Only after Lin Zimo reminded her did she come back to her senses.

"Oh, I was just randomly drawing it for fun. It was formed without any intent."

Luo Jianjian couldn't be bothered to explain anything to them. Her reply sounded very arrogant. The king looked displeased, while Kulun Juele was also a bit embarrassed.

"Royal Father, why don't we eat and chat at the same time?"

Kulun Juele suggested, interrupting the awkward atmosphere. The King slightly nodded and just as he picked up his chopsticks, Luo Jianjian impatiently picked up a crab with her bare hands and began to eat it.

King and Kulun Juele were slightly stunned, but they felt that this girl was funny. They didn't know whether to laugh or cry as they shook their heads.

"Are the women of your Tianqi Kingdom even so mighty in terms of appearance?"

Luo Jianjian's mouth was agape. She didn't have time to answer the king, so Lin Zimo quickly answered.

"Of course not. It's just that this is Jianjian's first time eating crab, so I'm lacking in manners. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."2

"I can't say that Miss Jianjian was different from the others, but she was definitely appreciated by the Gu family. The Gu family heard from the prince that before they built the ship, the prince promised Miss Jianjian that if she succeeded, she would be rewarded, right? "

When Luo Jianjian heard about the reward, she automatically put down the crab in her hand and looked at the king seriously.

"That's right!" "Highness the Prince promised!"

"Then, Miss Jianjian, do you have any rewards for her?"

The king asked this just to test Luo Jianjian. He wanted to see if this girl was doing it for money or for some other purpose. It would be fine if it was for money, but if it was for other things, then he had to be careful.

"Yes, yes!"

Luo Jianjian quickly answered, afraid that she would miss this opportunity. Lin Zimo also looked at Luo Jianjian curiously. He didn't even know what Luo Jianjian wanted.

"I want the Full Moon Stone!"

Luo Jianjian pointed at the Full Moon Stone accessory hanging around the prince's neck, her eyes filled with excitement.

Hearing her words, everyone was stunned. Although the Full Moon Stone could be sold for money due to its significance in Hailuan, it was actually not something that was very valuable. It was only an object that represented one's identity.

"Full Moon Stone? Does Miss Jianjian want this piece of Full Moon Stone? "

The king looked at Luo Jianjian in disbelief. Such a great merit, yet it was only for a stone?

"No no no, I don't want a piece of Full Moon Stone. "I want to …"

Luo Jianjian stretched out her five fingers towards the king with a happy expression on her face. She felt a little embarrassed to have said such a big mouth.

"Five?"

Kulun Juele guessed and felt that there weren't many among these five. Who would've thought that Luo Jianjian would shake her head.

"So that's fifty?"

The king frowned, although these fifty Full Moon Stone s were not too big, they did not have much storage in the palace, so these fifty Full Moon Stone should be more than half of the storage rooms in the palace.

"No, His Majesty, you can continue to make guesses and you'll soon figure it out!"

Luo Jianjian couldn't help but to remind him as the expressions of the King and Kulun Juele darkened.

"Miss Jianjian …" Could it be that you want five hundred Full Moon Stone? "

"Congratulations Your Majesty, your answer is correct! I want five hundred Full Moon Stone, I don't want anything else! As long as you give me five hundred Full Moon Stone, I can unreservedly teach shipbuilding and fishing to the fishermen of Hailuan Kingdom. "

It would be tempting to give the fishermen the Shipbuilding Arts and the fishing church, but these five hundred Full Moon Stone were too many.

"Why does Miss Jianjian need so many Full Moon Stone? Could it be that there's some mysterious use to it? "

The king stared at Luo Jianjian doubtfully. Luo Jianjian was slightly stunned. She had not thought of how to explain the use of the Full Moon Stone, she could not possibly say that she had points in cultivation, could she?

If he were to say it out loud, he would be treated as a lunatic.

"I... Just like this rock. What I like, I like to save. I see that the people from your Hailuan Capital City are all wearing these stones and think them to be valuable.

Although this answer was a bit far-fetched, it was still passable. However, this King didn't reduce his suspicions towards Luo Jianjian.

"Five hundred is too much. Fifty."
