Bone King's Universal Grocery

Chapter 376

"Your Majesty, isn't it appropriate for you and Mingyue to go together? Someone needs to help with chores, right?" Qiu'er objected to the fact that only two of them were traveling.

"I have hands and feet, and I don't need anyone's help. You don't need to say any more, this matter is settled like that."

"Then Li Hong, what do you want mechas for? Isn't it more convenient for the two of us to sit on the teleportation array or teleport directly?" Mingyue asked.

"The teleportation array is so boring! Why don't we fly the mecha by ourselves?"

"Fly over there? Are you sure? We are more than 2 kilometers away from Qizhou in a straight line. The day lily is cold when flying over here as a mecha."

"Hey! Don't say that! As far as I know, the flying speed of the mecha can reach 500 kilometers per hour, and 2 kilometers will only take 40 hours!"

"You have the nerve to say 40 hours! It only takes 4 seconds for us to teleport there, and wasting time is wasting money, you know?"

"The grocery store is doing business now, and there is no shortage of money."

Seeing Li Hong's rich and self-willed appearance, Mingyue sighed and said, "Oh! Forget it, forget it, whatever you want, I'll find the city lord right now."

At this moment, in the city lord's office, Guo Lin is busy discussing funding for scientific research projects.

It's a matter of money, and the people from the Tushan Monster Clan are naturally present. During this period of time, they have always taken a strong support attitude towards the scientific research projects of Liberty City. It can be said that the scientific and technological development of Liberty City cannot achieve such great results without With the help of Kaitu Mountain Monster Clan.

It's just that there seems to be a little conflict between the two sides this time. The research funding this time is for the research of magic missiles.

The so-called magic missile is an idea proposed a long time ago. It is to replace the explosives inside the missile with magic power and retain the propulsion function of the missile. Some alchemists think that the explosive power of the missile made in this way will be stronger than the original one.

The people of the Tushan Monster Clan scoffed at this idea. In their view, this kind of thing is a waste of money. Not to mention whether it can be done, even if it succeeds by luck in the end, the labor cost of filling the magic power in the missile in actual combat is much higher than that of ordinary explosions. Much more expensive.

Spending a lot of time and money, and finally come up with something that increases the manufacturing cost, but may not necessarily increase the explosive power. This kind of business is definitely a loss in the eyes of the Tushan Monster Clan.

So no matter what method the alchemists used to apply for funding, the Tushan Monster Clan refused them all. In the end, the alchemists couldn't bear it anymore and came to Guo Lin to ask for money.

Guo Lin, the city lord, is really poor to be honest. Liberty City has developed rapidly recently, and there are too many places to spend money. It is impossible to use money to support scientific research projects, but these alchemists are not relentless. Xia Guolin had no choice but to call the people from the Tushan Yaozu to do some work to see if he could give the money.

As a result, no matter what Guo Lin persuaded, the members of the Tushan Monster Clan refused to give money. Their attitude was extremely firm, and the atmosphere in the office was a little awkward for a while.

Just as Guo Lin was having a headache, Mingyue teleported into the office.

"Huh? What's the matter? My lord, are you in a meeting? Then I'll come back later." After speaking, Mingyue opened the door and left.

Mingyue, the savior, finally came, Guo Lin would not let her go, and quickly stopped Mingyue: "Mingyue, you misunderstood, I am fine."

An alchemist with a white beard stared at him and said, "My lord, why are you not whining~"

Before he could finish his sentence, another alchemist who was a little younger covered his mouth: "Ahem, my lord, Miss Mingyue, I suddenly remembered that there are still a few experiments that have not been done in the association. When we're done, we're leaving."

"That's right, we still haven't finished the experiment, Lord City Master, Miss Mingyue, let's take our leave first."

Several alchemists pushed the struggling old alchemist out of the office.

After going out the door, Old Alchemist broke free from the control of several people and asked angrily, "What are you going to do? What do you mean by dragging me out?"

The alchemist who covered the mouth of the old alchemist just now said: "Master, the one who came inside is Miss Mingyue. We have delayed her affairs, and I am afraid that we will never want to spend money for the rest of our lives."

"Isn't she just an ordinary congressman? Is she so powerful?"

"Ouch! Master, please don't say this out loud. Although Miss Mingyue is not the city lord, she is scarier than the city lord to some extent. I beg you to be kind, we still want to see the sun tomorrow! "

Mingyue didn't know what the alchemists said, she looked at the door of the office blankly and asked, "My lord, what's the situation with these people?"

"Ahem, don't pay attention to these details, what can you do for me?"

"My lord, is the mecha an important strategic material for our free city?" Mingyue asked.

"Of course it is!"

"Shouldn't that be kept secret?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Then if someone came to ask you for a mecha for the purpose of going for a drive, would you borrow it?"

"Don't borrow!"

"That's okay, Lord City Master, I'll go first!"

"Wait! Mingyue, if you ask this, someone wants to use the mecha to drive out?" Guo Lin frowned and asked.

"Yes, but don't worry, my lord, since it's inconvenient, we won't force it."

Hearing this, Guo Lin basically understood. He said with a half-smile: "Mingyue, you asked me so many questions, and I'll ask you one too. Is it Li Hong who borrowed the mecha?"

The smile on Mingyue's face froze, and she nodded helplessly.

"Then I understand, take it!" After speaking, Guo Lin opened the drawer, took out a storage ring from it and threw it to Mingyue.

Mingyue took the ring and asked with a bitter face: "Where is the important secret that the city lord agreed?"

"Secrets also depend on who you are dealing with, you naughty girl, don't try to use me as a shield."

Mingyue pouted when she heard the words: "My lord, can't you not borrow it?"

"No, I just want Li Hong to help test the performance."

"Hey! I have lost to you, my lord, one mecha is not enough. Li Hong and I want to go out together, so give me another one."

"You drive?"

"Yes, I drive."

"Ahem, what, Mingyue! The cost of a mecha is not cheap, you must be careful! Don't break it, I'm tight on money, you."

The more Mingyue listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. Why didn't Li Hongkai say anything, and only worried about this and that when he came to him?With a cold snort, Mingyue snatched another storage ring from Guo Lin's hand, slammed the door and left.

"Ahem, you guys go down too! Mingyue and the others will come back in a few days, and you are coming." Guo Lin ordered the people of the Tushan Monster Clan.

Early the next morning, Li Hong and Mingyue teleported to the Wanli Mountains together, preparing to go to the Fairy Continent.

　I originally wanted to sleep in on Saturday, but suddenly something happened at work in the afternoon, and the leader asked me to work overtime, and then I had "diarrhea". Using this name, I coded two chapters in the toilet, feeling tired.
