Lord of Rot

Chapter 265 The Baron Porcupine with Excellent Marriage
Li Qi brought a pen and paper and asked Hawkwood to write a letter.

He also carried a sealing seal with him.

A raven at Porcupine Castle flies away with the letter.

"I think there will be a reply soon," Hawkwood said to Li Qi.

Li Qi: "I hope so."

Before preparing to set off, Li Qi arranged for people to mine stones to build the headland crypt.

As long as the money is enough, people will not think it hard to work. If they are given a lot, what is it like to be an ox and a horse?
Otherwise, even if they are whipped with a whip, people will not be willing to work hard.

Mutual benefit will always create more value than simply squeezing.

However, there is a premise here, that is, Baron Li Qi has the final right of interpretation. When faced with a group of workers who may exist who simply want to take advantage, or a group of management who only want to squeeze out money, he can directly judge the outcome.

For example, some discerning people can see that they are taking advantage, but they just took advantage of reasonable loopholes. Li Qi can be convicted of simply infringing on the owner's property without having to follow the rules.

Generally he doesn't want this to happen either, but it always does.

The way to make a rule be remembered and absolutely dare not touch is to wait for the first person to touch it to appear, and then demonstrate the consequences of crimes to him.

Li Qi never worried about giving too much money to his subordinates, what would happen to them when they became rich.

The only thing he was worried about was that there were too few commodities in porcupine collars, what would people do if they made money and had nowhere to spend it.

Choosing not to spend money to save up is not an option.

"You can also take a stroll in Donggang City this time to see if there is anything you can learn from."

As long as the money circulates in the porcupine collar, for Li Qi, the money in the left pocket is put in the right pocket.

After arranging the affairs, Li Qi took his followers and several cavalry and set off.

The Baron of the Three Forks River Castle also went into battle lightly, and everyone rode fast horses and set off towards Donggang City.

If the Porcupine hadn't sent four-handed mercenaries to clean up the island of High Magic Land, Li Qi would have preferred to take a boat to East Harbor City, which would definitely save a lot of time.

"Maybe after a period of time, when you have enough money, you can consider buying a few more ships."

Finally, Donggang City appeared in front of my eyes.

The huge town is like a giant beast. Li Qi, who has been to the two big cities of Iron Stone City and Burning City, still couldn't help sighing when he saw Donggang City.

too big.

And this is different from those two towns, Donggang City is a port city.

As aristocrats, the two entered the town without any obstruction at all, and soldiers who had been prepared for a long time came to lead the way after seeing them.

Li Qi guessed that the number of floating population in Donggang City is at least 10,000+.

The rich people in Dongxia are probably all here.

"It will take a long time for the porcupine collar to develop to this level."

But it's not entirely impossible.

He is full of confidence in this.

Led by the golden soldiers, they came to Howling Fort.

The Roaring Castle is built in the city, which looks like a part of Eastport City, and the entrance of the castle is an urn structure, with arrow towers on both sides.

After entering Howling Fort, the two were arranged to go to different rooms to rest.

Li Qi did feel exhausted after rushing on and on.

After taking a simple shower and having something to eat, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

He didn't even eat last night's meal, and left the room after a simple wash-up. A familiar red-haired figure caught Li Qi's attention.

Li Qi walked over with a smile on his face: "Good day, beautiful Miss Ewen Jielin!"

How could he be unhappy when he saw Red Rose, this was his password to get rich.

Red Qiangwei, who was greeted suddenly, was taken aback. She turned her head and said with a smile, "So it's my knight."

Li Qi's slick tone in the letter was directly spoken out by her.

But Li Qi had a thick skin and didn't care at all.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

"There's a tea party today," she said.

Hong Qiangwei turned her head to look at Li Qi's profile, she just felt that Baron Porcupine was very different from when they first met after more than a year.

Seems to be more confident?
Perhaps it was because the status of the lord brought him some changes in temperament.

"Your Porcupine soap is a big seller." She decided to say something.

She never took the initiative to talk to other noble youths like this.

It probably has something to do with the soap that Li Qi recommended that gave her a lot of goodwill, or it may be that the other party always uses weird ways when writing and chatting with her, not as serious as other noble youths.

Like Philip Cavendish.

Li Qi's heart moved. He was thinking about how to ask Hong Qiangwei to help bring the silk, but she brought it up first.

"Porcupine is about to have a new product, maybe you will be very interested."

"What new product?"

"A kind of clothes woven from extraordinary biological materials." Li Qi exaggerated a little bit about the origin of silk: "It's a kind of moth as big as a cow, and their wings can flap I got this kind of moth by accident, but it was dying at that time."

"But it left a few cocoons. I used this cocoon to make a fabric that is far more delicate than velvet. I named it silk. Wearing silk clothes can keep the body hydrated, and I am not afraid of the sun in summer. Ultraviolet rays... well Well, let's not mention ultraviolet light, you know, this material is very precious and scarce."

Hong Qiangwei took half a step sideways with her right foot, her hands behind her back, and her body turned sideways.

The red hair spread out like a waterfall, and with the rotation of the body, it was all softly placed on the shoulders.

She changed from standing side by side with Li Qi, to facing Li Qi sideways, and said, "I will charge you this time!"

"Miss Yiwen Jielin, you must have misunderstood. This is just a small gift." Li Qi sighed and said, "I only got a little silkworm cocoon, which is worth as much as gold."

He spread his hands: "If you give someone a gift, you can't still give money and beg someone to accept it."

"I was just joking, and I'm looking forward to the gift you mentioned."

Yiwen Jielin did play a little joke with Li Qi just now, and Li Qi's reaction surprised her. Other nobles were worried that she didn't want enough gifts, but Li Qi thought she wanted too much.

But this also proves that the silk that Li Qi said is very precious.

I don't need expensive gifts from you, because you won't be richer than me, but I will cherish your most precious gift to me.

She thought to herself, this may be the reason why she has a good impression of Baron Porcupine.

"Good day, Evangeline~" A lady came up.

"Good day, Lola," Evangeline responded.

"This is...?" She looked at Li Qi.

"Good day, ma'am" Li Qi introduced himself: "I am the Baron of Porcupine Castle, Li Qi Clarence."

"Sir Li Qi!" She was suddenly excited, her voice was a bit sharp: "You are Sir Li Qi, I like you"

"Huh?" Li Qi suddenly felt that this way of speaking had been encountered before, and it was very familiar.

"The soap!" she gasped.

Li Qi immediately asked, "Is Sir Jochen all right? We fought side by side."

If I'm not mistaken, she is definitely the wife of the Red Rooster Knight.

Lola nodded quickly: "He praised you countless times, saying that you are a powerful knight, how do you know that Jochen and I are..."

She was looking forward to it.

Li Qi replied seriously: "Sir Jochen has mentioned you in front of me countless times, especially when he was drunk."

Of course, after getting drunk, he said that you have body odor and wanted to buy soap from me.

Not a word of praise was said.

It is not necessary to tell the whole truth, and it is not good to destroy the relationship between husband and wife.

Lola was very moved after hearing this, blushing slightly, complaining that the joy was already overflowing: "He will talk nonsense, I will settle accounts with him when I go back!"

It is to give him benefits.

Li Qi secretly said: "Yochen, not only did I not betray you, but I also helped you. How should you repay this kindness?"

Then came several noble ladies.

After learning that the person in front of them was Baron Porcupine, they all surrounded him.

"Master Li Qi, is there a new scent for Porcupine brand soap?"

"Sir Leech, your Porcupine soap smells good after you wash your hair."

Li Qi's heart moved, and he said: "In the future, Porcupine will also produce shampoo to keep the hair with a strong fragrance."

"Really?"

"Great!"

Don't care when it's made, just draw the pancake first.

On the other side, many men passed by and couldn't help sighing when they saw Li Qi, who was dominated by a group of noble ladies and wives.

"He's really good with ladies."

"Well, half as popular as when I was young."

The others looked at the man with doubts on their faces: Who are you!
