This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 399

Chapter 399 is too familiar

Half a month has passed since Amberxiu announced it to the world.

Other than the one time when the Githyanki were a little louder, it's been pretty peaceful. Amberxiu was still worried that the paladins had lost their way at sea and could not find his location.

I have prepared a big gift for these paladins, ensuring that they will cry and shout that Lord Lich is righteous, and then kneel in front of me with regret and shame.

But now, it turns out that the person who came was not the Lion, but Amberxiu's old friend whom he had not seen for a long time—Princess Ariel of the Kingdom of Rage.

When the Kuroshio landed on this small island named Gold Coin Island, Amber Xiu was waiting on the shore early.

The cabin door opened, and Ariel walked down the cabin under the leadership of Hastings.

When they met again, Ariel did not recognize that the lich in front of her was the original Monge Gray River, and just said hello to Amber Xiu calmly.

"Ultraman Master, we finally meet. I have heard a lot about your deeds."

Amberxiu met Ariel as a young man. When he heard what she said, he showed a humble smile and said politely: "It is my honor to leave a little impression on you, Your Highness. Businessmen are most afraid of... The client doesn't remember me.”

This was said very calmly, without any embarrassment of encountering the victim again.

After all, I'm used to it.

Ariel responded with a shallow smile and said, "Ultraman Master is too modest. It's not just a simple impression. The heroic meteor shower that saw off the Githyanki people still shocks me to this day. I'm here to see Master today. It's for business.”

Amberxiu was a little surprised. The separation didn't last long, and Ariel seemed to be a different person.

In the past, Ariel should have slammed the table with a hammer, quoted a price directly, and started a fight if they couldn't reach an agreement.

Sure enough, experiencing life and death can temper a person. It seems that Amber Xiu's fake death was a big blow to the princess.

“Welcome to your Royal Highness the Princess, come with me, at least let the guests sit down comfortably so that we can talk about those cold numbers.”

Ambrose took Ariel to a newly built castle.

This is the masterpiece of the underground dwarves from the Dark Region. The underground dwarves, like the desert dwarves, are very good at building. Although this castle is not big enough and lacks decorations, it can still make people feel majestic even if it is empty.

Ariel looked at the castle with a surprised expression.

She doesn't understand architecture, but she can clearly feel that the design of this castle is very grand. It is more beautiful than the palace of the Kingdom of Rage, and it is more in line with her personal preferences.

This Gold Coin Island originally only had a small piece of land, but in just half a month, the area expanded several times, and a castle was built.

It was so scary, like there was a whole kingdom behind it.

Since Ariel officially took over the power of the kingdom, what she usually reads the most is not the military reports, but the people's livelihood reports.

In just half a month, it is absolutely impossible for the Rage Kingdom to build such a castle.

Although she doesn't know the very general word productivity, Ariel can also feel the gap. This lich has very powerful production capabilities, whether it is building buildings or manufacturing airships like the Kuroshio.

　　He cannot be regarded simply as a businessman, but as an existence equivalent to the Kingdom of Rage.

Arriving at a simple but not shabby living room, Amberxiu invited Ariel to sit down and then ordered someone to bring a pot of boiled water.

Purely boiled water distilled from boiling sea water is what Amberxiu always uses to entertain guests.

Ariel didn't even care about what she drank in her mouth. She only thought about how to negotiate business with this lich.

The Kingdom of Rage knows that airships are the key to future wars. This is more important than any legend. It is something that directly changes the form of war. Let's not talk about the issue of revenge on Ryan. If other kingdoms installed this kind of airship, then the Kingdom of Rage would completely fall behind.

Fortunately, the lich approached her first to sell the airship, so Ariel was determined to get an airship like the Kuroshio, and she couldn't afford too much money to buy it. Therefore, Ariel feels a huge responsibility on her shoulders.

Whether you can reach a deal depends on you.

Ariel cheered herself up in her mind: "I can do it, just like Meng did, using language skills and then swearing to strengthen the persuasiveness..."

Alice has practiced many times for this meeting. Now she needs to bring the topic to those airships without leaving any trace, then throw out a piece of territory she prepared and lower the price of the airship. Yes, everything is perfect.

Just as Alice was recalling her plan, Amberxiu spoke first: "Your Royal Highness, you have learned the price of the airship from Hastings. The reason why you are here is because the Kingdom of Rage cannot afford the airship. price, so you're ready to bargain with me, right?”

Ariel was stunned for a moment. That's true, but is it so direct?

Ariel was silent, and Amberxiu asked, "Did I guess wrong?"

Ariel could only say quickly: "Yes, that's what it means. The airship is very good, but the price is too high, and the premium is too serious, right? It's just ordinary steel..."

"Whether it is high or not depends not only on the materials, but also on the technology. I am the only one in the world who can build this kind of airship with practical significance. Research and development always requires costs. You can't let me lose the hundreds of dollars I spent on research and development. "Billions of gold coins?" "Ten billions?" Ariel was shocked by the price.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. The manuscript fee alone for the paper I published in "Legendary Curse" was worth millions. It was only a small part of my huge research." Amber Xiu began to list the data. , thus proving that his airship technology is very valuable.

Ariel can't refute it, or no one in the world can refute it, because the technology of undead alchemy is indeed unique in the world. This completely independent system cannot be valued by others.

After listening for a long time, Ariel felt dizzy. How come she already felt that what the other party said made sense before she even started bargaining?

Is ten million gold coins for a castrated version of the Kuroshio really not expensive? But the Raging Tide Kingdom really can't afford so many gold coins.

Wait a minute, I remember Monger said that you can't follow other people's rhythm, even if you change the subject.

Ariel remembered the trump card she had prepared and said to Amber Xiu: "Ultraman Master, let's not talk about the price of this technology for now. What do you think of the troops that Ryan has sent to sea?"

Amberxiu chuckled and said, "Your Highness, the princess, is talking about the Lane people you sent into the Thunder Sea?"

Ariel nodded and said: "It seems that you already know. Yes, as a friend, I sent the Lane people into the Thunder Sea. Even if they can't die, they will suffer serious losses in the future. I'm afraid they will come to trouble you again. It's not easy. With this meeting gift, Master Ultraman may feel the sincerity of the Rage Kingdom?”

Hasting's Kuroshio has been monitoring the sea, and of course he will tell Amber Xiu the news.

The Kuroshio even watched the Lane people enter the Thunder Sea before returning. If the thundercloud wasn't so terrifying, Hasting would have wanted to follow it and have a look.

Amberxiu said to Ariel: "Of course, I am very grateful to the Kingdom of Rage for its kindness. However, Her Highness the Princess does not know something. I invited those Lane people here on purpose."

Ariel said doubtfully: "What does this mean?"

A lich builds a territory overseas, and then lures the Llane people to come over and tear down his territory? This doesn't sound reasonable.

Amberxiu explained: "Your Highness the Princess doesn't know something. I have had a very bad life these years."

Ariel looked confused. Why did she suddenly start talking about this topic? Fortunately, she didn't need to think about it. Amber Xiu himself continued: "Many reasons led to me being poor when I was alive. I couldn't even afford the youth potion. After reincarnating into a lich, I didn't get much better. Ryan has been looking for us. Trouble with the undead, even if I didn't provoke them at all.

"Your Highness, you know that I am a businessman. I just want to do business safely and make money. But as an undead person and my weak strength, no one likes to reason with me. This makes it difficult to do business. Therefore, the reason why I lured those Lane people over is to solve this problem once and for all.

"Seven legends, a complete Ryan Legion. If I can deal with this elite in front of everyone, I think everyone will honestly reason with me and discuss business. Her Royal Highness the Princess has good intentions and will The Lane people were deceived into a desperate situation, but in this case, my plan to establish my power failed. "

Ariel's eyes widened when she heard this. Is this lich crazy?

The Kingdom of Rage did not dare to take direct action against this army, and could only use a group of cannon fodder to lure the Lane people into the Thunder Sea.

Seven legends, what a terrifying power that is, this lich actually said he wanted to deal with this army?

Ariel didn't want to believe it at first, but before he could refute, a mirror in the reception room lit up, and a lady with noble temperament appeared.

Amberxiu apologized to Ariel, walked to the magic mirror and said, "Ms. Rose, I'm not done yet."

Apoptotic Rose said a little dissatisfied: "The dragons are waiting, and they are a little impatient."

Amberxiu chuckled and said, "If those big lizards are impatient, just give them a beating and let Gareth kill a few more dragons. How long has it been? Don't you know who has the bigger fist?"

"Okay, I'll deal with it. You should hurry up. There are more than a hundred dragons anyway. Even dismembering them will take time."

Apoptotic Rose disconnected the communication after saying this. Amberxiu quickly returned to Ariel and apologized: "Sorry, sorry, business is a bit busy."

Ariel frowned and asked: "You just talked about dragons...are you referring to those giant dragons?"

Amberxiu explained calmly, "Yes, I solved the Githyanki problem, and your highness should already know that. These overseas dragons have colluded with the Githyanki and want to counterattack the mainland again, so I will tell my friends It's been dealt with. Now that the Dragon Clan has been defeated, they are waiting for me to discuss the issue of compensation.”

Ariel was only shocked. She wanted to say it was a lie, but then Amberxiu invited Ariel to visit the surrender ceremony of the Dragon Clan.

When she saw the dozens of giant dragons being shackled and forced to crawl on the ground, Ariel finally did not dare to doubt anymore.

During this ceremony, Ariel also met the leader of the Silent Night Pirates, the Queen of the Undead in the Underdark, and the Lord of the Dragon Tomb... These are all famous figures.

It turns out that the friends the lich mentioned were these big shots, so no wonder he was confident in dealing with the seven legends of Lane. This power was enough to directly attack the Lane Empire.

It's over this time, there is no way to negotiate the price, and the Kingdom of Rage cannot afford to buy an airship.

Just when Ariel thought that the negotiation had completely failed, Amberxiu smiled and said to her: "Your Highness, I also know the economic situation of the Rage Kingdom very well, so you may be able to use another way to pay for the airship. cost of."

another way?

Ariel looked at the lich in front of her and suddenly felt familiar.

Change the topic, interrupt the rhythm, use your trump card to scare the opponent, and then completely control the rhythm of the negotiation... This trick is too familiar.
