LOL: I'm a bad prince in Demacia

Chapter 107 So This Is The Reversal! (two more five thousand words)
After a lunch, everyone went outside to enjoy the scenery after the rain.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky had dissipated a lot, but the sky was not so bright. Because of the rain, the air couldn't even get hotter.

On the contrary, there is a sense of coolness. After a heavy rain, water marks can be seen everywhere, as if the world has been washed away.

The atmosphere is excellent, and this moment is surprisingly peaceful. Everyone looks at the scenery in front of them, and no one hates rainy days.

It's just a pity that the bicycle can't practice.

Now the ground is full of water and wet. If you drop it during practice, your clothes will definitely be dirty.

The practice plan has been postponed, and I don't know what to do right now.

Lu Qi thought for a while and said, "Clean up and get ready to go to the streets."

In fact, it was more than half past three in the afternoon.

After all, playing mahjong is something that is easy to lose track of time. The girls were not convinced, so they dragged Lu Qi to play a few more rounds.

Naturally, the time for lunch was delayed for a while.

In addition, it will take a while to prepare lunch, and it is past noon after eating.

Lu Qi went to the street to go shopping. Recently, there are more mouths to eat at home, and the ingredients are disappearing quickly, and a new batch will be bought.

He also plans to purchase some medicinal materials this time, including silver needles for acupuncture.

There were quite a few things to buy, and he also wanted to go to Navis's side to have a look.

Once you've made your decision, you're ready to go.

Sona doesn't really want to go to crowded places, so she wants to stay at home.

Fiona thought about it and decided to stay with her.

So there were only Lu Qi, Lacus, Kashina and Urna traveling.

But it's just to buy some things, of course, there is no need to dispatch all the staff.

"set off!"

After some preparations, following Lu Qi's order, the carriage immediately started moving.

On the way, Lu Qi opened the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.

Wangdu's street drainage system is doing well, and the roads are wet. There was a heavy rain just this morning, and there were basically no traffic obstacles.

However, the excellent drainage system is also partly due to the high terrain of the capital. The city is almost standing on the side of a mountain, and the buildings are taller than the other.

It's just that because the capital is so big, it's not easy to feel it at ordinary times. It looks like a palace, but it's actually built on a high point.

On the streets of Wangdu, basically every few streets, you can see the entrance of an underground waterway. These underground waterways are connected to a big river, and this river is connected to the sea.

Even if it has just rained, there are people coming and going on the street at this moment.

Lu Qi also saw the newspaper. At a small stall on the street, the customer was sitting there, obviously holding a newspaper in his hand and reading it.

He turned to Kashina and asked, "How are the newspapers selling recently?"

The newspaper was published near the Church of the Illuminators. It was published for free for three days, and then it started charging yesterday.

Today is the second day.

Hearing Lu Qi's question, Kashina replied: "When the newspaper is free, there are a lot of people who come. Basically, the supply exceeds the demand every morning. You don't have to wait for us to distribute it. People who are close will come by themselves."

"However, after switching to the payment model, I can feel that customers' desire to buy newspapers has dropped significantly. Although they can still be sold out every day, the speed is much slower."

When she said it, her tone was a bit worried.

Think there is something wrong.

If it continues like this, a large number of newspapers are printed every day, and they will not be sold by then, and no one will buy them, and it will be a big loss.

Lu Qi smiled when he heard it: "It's okay, it's normal."

After all, no one's money comes from strong winds. When something is linked to money, everyone will think about it when they see it.

There is also an obvious reason why residents' desire to buy newspapers has decreased.

That is content.

The newspapers that were published for free in the previous few issues recorded the trivial things that some Illuminators collected from the people.

If it has always been like this, people can still look fresh when they buy it at the beginning.

In the back, I'm afraid no one is willing to spend two copper coins to buy a piece of paper and come back to read a bunch of nonsense.

So at this time, hot spot support is needed.

Just like those stars in the previous life, they are elusive existences for ordinary people, so whenever something big or small happens to them, the whole world can't wait to pay attention.

The same is true in this world.

It's just that the stars have been replaced by nobles, who are also out of reach for ordinary people.

Not to mention the great nobles, it is a great honor for a commoner to occasionally have a word with the great nobles.

When nobles become a gimmick, isn't there a hotspot?

There is also the official information, which has never been a problem, Lu Qi only needs to talk to his aunt.

But this will have to wait until the day when the newspaper is officially published.

The second is marketing.

A commodity, apart from the quality itself, the most important thing is its marketing.

Just like perfume, owning a bottle of perfume is synonymous with exquisiteness for women. With this marketing, all women rush to buy it.

The same is true for newspapers. When everyone wakes up to read a newspaper in the morning and it becomes a trend of the times, if you don’t buy a newspaper, you are out of the group.

This is the mass effect.

Of course, this is marketing aimed at the masses, and there are several other ways of marketing, so there is no need to talk about them one by one now.

Therefore, Kashina's worries are unnecessary.

There is no problem, but Lu Qi's steps have not yet been implemented.

Glancing at Lux next to him who was holding a bunch of candied haws happily, Lu Qi smiled.

But it's almost time to do it.

And Lacus, seeing Lu Qi's eyes, tilted her head in doubt.

She didn't realize what cruel things would be waiting for her next.

After some time.

As the carriage stopped slowly, Yurna in front said, "Your Highness, the Illuminator Church has arrived."

Hearing this, the three got out of the carriage.

Lu Qi hasn't come to the Church of the Illuminators for a while, and now that the date of the newspaper's publication is getting closer, naturally he still wants to take a look.

Moreover, the children in the church will also be the main force in delivering newspapers in the future.

As soon as I got off the carriage, I could see a lot of people gathered around the church.

The children are there, learning to ride bicycles in groups of two, regardless of whether the ground is dirty or not, and they are not afraid of falling down, just get up and continue learning.

It is very fun to play and learn at the same time.

More than one bicycle was made, but one was sent to Lu Qi.

The rest, of course, were distributed to the three Illuminator Churches, as well as some adults who had been found in advance and were willing to deliver newspapers.

These are basically people who are helped by the Church of the Illuminators. They have some physical disabilities and are not suitable for most jobs.

But learning to bike is not difficult, so it is within their ability.

"His Royal Highness!"

At this time, as soon as the three of Lu Qi got out of the carriage, several children ran over.

It was Mofu and the others who were dirty at the moment, but they were very happy to see Lu Qi.

"good afternoon!"

Then Mofu saw Lacus next to him again, and greeted with a smile: "There is also the idiot sister, good afternoon!"

Lux was suddenly unhappy and said, "Who are you calling an idiot sister?"

She picked up the candied haws in her hand like a treasure.

The bright red candied haws instantly attracted the attention of several children.

Their eyes moved up and down with the candied haws.

Even Moff couldn't help swallowing.

Seeing this, Lacus smiled triumphantly: "Do you want to eat?"

Mofu and the children nodded in accordance with their original intentions.

So Lacus showed a nice smile: "Then tell your truth."

The clever Mofu immediately understood what she meant.

After hesitating for a while, in the face of the huge temptation of candied haws, he still decided to speak against his conscience.

"Sister Mianwei is smart, she looks like a gentle, generous and kind-hearted girl."

"Miss Guanwei is so beautiful!"

"Sister Guanwei is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in the world!"

Each of the children said one sentence, they are children themselves, they don't have a lot of vocabulary, and they racked their brains to say every sentence.

Lacus was a little proud when she said that, she glanced at the expectant eyes of Mofu and the children, snorted, and directly bit the candied haws.

"I won't let you eat it!"

Mofu and the others were stunned for a moment. At this moment, they understood what it means to be sinister.

And Lux ​​saw their sluggish eyes, and laughed proudly with her hands on her hips: "Hahaha!"

The laughter was full of vengeful pleasure, like that of a child.

The eyes of several children became resentful.

"Okay, stop teasing them."

Lu Qi glanced at Lacus helplessly, and said to Mofu, "Go and call everyone over."

Moff nodded, glared at Lacus, turned around and ran away.

And Lux ​​was still eating candied haws triumphantly, and said to Lu Qi: "You heard, what do these children think of me?"

"That's right, that's right, gentle and generous, kind-hearted, the kind that doesn't lie to children at first glance."

Lu Qi chuckled.

Lux snorted: "Who told him to call me stupid sister."

Kashina watched from the side, with a helpless smile on her face, she looked back and forth at Lux and Lu Qi twice.

I don't know why, but I always feel that Lacus is becoming more and more like His Highness, and I have learned badly from following him all day.

After a while, Mofu called all the children in the church over. He is the boss now, and ordered all the children to get their seats.

They stood scattered, all looking at Lu Qi eagerly, not knowing why.

Lu Qi glanced at Urna and said with a smile, "Take it all out."

Yuerna took a box from the carriage, and when she opened it, there were bunches of candied haws inside.

Because in summer, candied haws are easy to melt if you can’t finish them in a day, and putting them in the refrigerator will affect the taste.

So basically it is done on the same day and eaten on the same day.

It's easy to make, so Lu Qi makes some by the way every day.

Thinking of coming to church today, I prepared a lot in advance.

Lux just saw this and went to tease Moff and the children.

In fact, Lu Qi prepared it for every child, including those who illuminated the church.

"Wow"

The children looked at a large box full of candied haws, their eyes lit up, and they felt like they were drooling.

No child can refuse candied haws.

Soon, the candied haws were distributed.

As the sweet and sour taste of candied haws spread in the mouth, every child’s face was filled with smiles, and there was a cheerful atmosphere outside the church.

When they ate candied haws, the more they ate, the slower they ate and the more reluctant they were.

After eating, even if they saw that there were still some, the children didn't want any more.

They are not equal to their age and know that no one will get used to their waywardness.

At this time, Lu Qi said to the children: "Whoever learns to ride a bicycle first can get another one."

What's left is extra, and it's not good to give it to anyone. It's better to let the children fight for it themselves.

Upon hearing this, the children impatiently started to learn bicycles.

Of course the scene became chaotic, there were not enough bicycles for everyone.

Some people don't want to maintain a two-person team, and Mofu will go up to maintain order at this time.

Although he is not very old, he is obviously a bit majestic inside, and the children will not dare to mess around at that stop.

He was also the first to receive candied haws.

I heard that the bicycle was learned not long after it was issued.

After receiving the candied haws, he gave more than half of them to a little girl who had been with him all the time, and ate two of them himself.

This little girl heard that what happened to him was the same, so Mofu always treated her as his younger sister.

Lu Qi thinks this is also very good, the two of them at least have each other's company.

Candied haws are more precious now, because only Lu Qi has them.

But it won't be long before it will appear in the streets and alleys of Demacia like a bicycle.

After the remaining candied haws were distributed, Lu Qi and the three got back into the carriage and prepared to leave.

As the carriage started to drive, it was also noticed by the children, and they waved goodbye vigorously.

Even at their age, they understood at this moment that the man sitting in the carriage had done something that meant a lot to them.

The second stop of the carriage was to the workshop.

The workshop changed to a new address, which was found by the director of the scientific research institute. The place is bigger and can accommodate many people.

Whether it is a bicycle or an improved version of the printing press, it all comes from here.

As the carriage stopped, a group of personnel from the scientific research institute also came out to greet him.

Among them, Mei Li and Ke Sen, the siblings, were the fastest in the sprint.

Like a pug who smelled a sausage, they flashed in front of Lu Qi, with flattering and moving smiles on their faces.

"His Royal Highness! It's really a day, like three autumns!"

"Your Highness! The days I haven't seen you, I count the tears on my pillow!"

Seeing these two actors getting more and more outrageous.

Lu Qi also waved his hand: "Go aside."

"okay."

The two ran away in a hurry, and followed at a distance that would not disturb Lu Qi.

And the reason why they are like this is also very simple, except that Lu Qi is very fragrant.

Recently, it was also because of his relationship that the two of them were successfully registered in the scientific research institute.

You know, even the eldest son, Jared, may not be able to be named in the scientific research institute at this age.

But they did it!
To be named in the scientific research institute, for the two members of the Menke family, it is tantamount to a great joy.

And with Navis, they can even hold their heads high in front of Jared.

In front of the elders of the Menke family, it is also rare to be a little tougher.

All this is thanks to Lu Qi.

It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that the fifteen laps of the Menke family changed their fate that day.

At this moment, Navis ran out to greet Lu Qi when she heard the news of Lu Qi's arrival.

"Your Highness."

Standing in front of Lu Qi, Navis lowered her head in embarrassment.

Seeing her, even Lu Qi was slightly taken aback, but he quickly realized it.

Lacus was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had mistaken the person.

Navis at this time, can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The big round glasses that blocked 90.00% of her appearance were taken off, revealing her small and delicate face.

There is pure light makeup on it, a pair of big eyes are very bright and moving, the long eyelashes are trembling at this moment, and the reddish face looks even cuter.

The hairstyle has also been specially combed. It is no longer the same braid as before, but it is naturally scattered on both sides and slightly curled.

Coupled with the ill-fitting scientific research white robe on her body, it gives people the feeling that she looks very powerful, but she is a petite loli.

He glanced back at Merry.

Mei Li said proudly: "Your Highness, how about it, this is my work!"

She just watched Navis wear big rigid glasses and a rustic ponytail all day long, so how could she attract His Highness's attention.

So, with a thought, a bold idea came up.

So, they quietly carried out the modification plan of Navis, preparing to give Lu Qi a surprise.

This change scared even herself.

She didn't even know that her younger sister was so exquisite.

Looking at it now, Lu Qi was not very surprised, but was surprised by Ms. Guanwei.

Looking at the shy Navis who lowered her head in front of her.

Lu Qi gave a hehe to the dazed Lacus, "Did you see, this is the reversal, the reversal I said at the beginning."

Lacus came back to her senses, looked at Navis in front of her, and remembered that Lu Qi had indeed said such a thing.

All it takes is a reversal.

He remembered Navis's usual dress before.

At this moment, Lux also understood the meaning of reversal.

When Lu Qi took off Navis' big glasses, she noticed that Navis was a very cute girl.

Now that she has been dressed up exquisitely, it can be described as stunning.

Because Kashina came here often, and because she had known Navis for so long, she already knew about it.

Lu Qi noticed a problem at this time, and asked strangely: "Don't you wear glasses?"

Navis finally willing to take off her big ugly glasses is a thing to be happy about.

Even if Lu Qi forced the order at the time, Navis' character would definitely obey.

However, Lu Qi didn't do this, he was thinking that maybe it was because Navis's eyes were very short-sighted.

Now I found that Navis, who took off her big glasses, didn't wear other glasses, and she didn't seem to be affected.

Hearing Lu Qi's question, Navis nodded, and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "No."

"Then why did you wear those big glasses all day long?"

"Because it's very comfortable to wear without having to look into the eyes of others."

"."

Hearing Navis' answer, Lu Qi fell silent.

He almost forgot that there is another word in this world called social terror.

Obviously, the current Navis is at least not so socially fearful.
