Chapter 22 Caroline's Determination
"President Xu, is it difficult to pave these street lights?" Princess Caroline asked Xu Yi by pointing at the street lights on both sides of the roads in Luoyu Valley.
"It's not difficult from my point of view." Xu Yi smiled and replied.
"It means it's very difficult from my point of view?"
Xu Yi smiled: "That's right. Although the related technology of street lights is not complicated, the only one who has mastered this technology at present is our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which is of course very difficult for others."
"I heard that your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has sold several more important technologies, which shows that President Xu, you are not someone who must hold everything in your hands. So now I want to ask, if we want to buy the related technology for street light paving, what conditions will it take?" Princess Caroline asked again.
Seeing Princess Caroline deliberately posing with a seductive look and posture, Xu Yi smiled and shook her head: "Sorry, at present, we do not intend to sell this technology, because this technology actually contains many of the highest-end magic array technology that our chamber of commerce is studying, so it is not convenient to disclose it."
Princess Caroline was not disappointed and continued to ask: "What if it is other technologies that can be revealed? For example, the manufacturing technology of farmland magic machinery is not a technology that is particularly important, right?"
"It's a pity that although the manufacturing technology of farmland magic machinery is not something that cannot be disclosed at all, the most important thing to make farmland magic machinery is not the relevant technical parameters, but technical workers with rich operating experience. I think... except for our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, there are probably no qualified technical workers elsewhere."
"Is that true?" Princess Caroline recalled the situation she had visited in Luoyu Valley these days. She found that Xu Yi was not deliberately lying to shirk it.
The dwarf workers and a small number of human workers who produce various magic machine tools obviously have very skillful practical experience. It is absolutely impossible to meet their operating standards if you find someone.
After confirming this situation, Princess Caroline's eyes rolled and stopped mentioning this question, but continued to wander around Luoyu Valley with Xu Yi.
After the trip that was more like a walk than a visit, Princess Caroline stopped and sighed to Xu Yi: "President Xu, although it is a pity, I have to say that our visit to Luoyu Valley has ended, and I am afraid I must return to the Principality of Drake."
Xu Yi nodded: "I'm very sorry. I originally hoped that you could stay for a few more days and have a good understanding of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce."
Princess Caroline showed a playful smile: "Actually, compared to knowing the New Air Chamber of Commerce better, I am more interested in knowing you. President Xu. You are the most special man I have ever met, and he helped me realize the dream I have had since childhood. If you are not married, I will definitely make up my mind to grab you into my own hands. Of course, even now, as long as you want, I welcome you to have something to do with me at any time..."
Xu Yi shook his head with a wry smile: "Your Highness, Princess. Don't tease me anymore. The preliminary cooperation agreement between us has been reached, and there are still many opportunities to meet in the future. I am very worried that if you continue like this, I will be unable to control myself one day and do something that is sorry for my wife."
Princess Caroline immediately let out a crisp silver bell laugh: "Haha, President Xu, you are so cute. I have told you many times that this is not a big deal. Even your wife will definitely not mind."
"But I mind." Xu Yi said seriously.
"Okay, okay, I understand. President Xu, you are a serious man. I promise not to tease you anymore. How about it?" Princess Caroline raised an eyebrow to Xu Yi, and at a glance she knew that her promise was simply nonsense.
Seeing her expression, Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a little headache.
If it was someone else, he would not contact her in the future and avoid it. However, if nothing unexpected happens in the Principality of Drak, he would be an important partner of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Xu Yi would not have been able to completely avoid meeting her in the future.
Seeing the expression on Xu Yi's face, Princess Caroline smiled again, then waved her hand to Xu Yi: "Okay, President Xu, Anduin has already negotiated with you all those trivial matters. Let's stop with our private affairs here. Next time we meet in Thurwell City, we will continue." As she said that, she showed a teasing smile to Xu Yi, approached two steps, and said softly: "Next time I will make the bed in advance and wait for your arrival by President Xu."
After saying this, Princess Caroline made any statement without waiting for Xu. She turned gently, turned around and stepped onto the carriage she had prepared long ago.
After a while, Princess Caroline lifted the window of the carriage and ran a kiss to Xu Yi, and then she was carried by the carriage and quickly left Luoyu Valley.
Seeing Princess Caroline's figure gradually fading away, Xu Yi smiled bitterly again and shook his head.
Although Princess Caroline always looks boring in front of him, her boldness and straightforwardness made Xu Yi unable to really hate her.
But when he thought that he would be teased by her every time he saw her in the future, Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a deep helplessness.
After all, if a woman becomes a hooligan, it will be much more terrifying than a man.
What's more, she is such a beautiful and charming female hooligan...
Unlike Xu Yi who sighed helplessly, the carriage drove out of Luoyu Valley and galloped on the Luoyu Highway leading to Bangta City. Princess Caroline in the carriage put down the curtains, but the smile and frivolous expression on her face disappeared without a trace. In the blink of an eye, she became extremely dignified, and even had a hint of majesty that could not be ignored.
It was as if in a blink of an eye, she went from the female gangster who kept teasing Xu Yi to a real princess.
Seeing Princess Caroline's expression change, Anduin, who was sitting opposite her, sighed and said sincerely: "Your Highness, these naiveties are really embarrassing you."
Princess Caroline shook her head gently: "No. I don't have any difficulties. Xu Yi is a real gentleman. So in fact, he hasn't made me feel embarrassed these days."
"But our goal has not been achieved, right? If we go back like this, it may not be easy to explain to the Sak Kingdom." Anduin said with a frown.
Princess Caroline glanced at Anduin and snorted softly: "Why do you have to explain it to them? Actually, I have opposed my father and the guys who turned against each other in the Sack Kingdom to do such a deal. Even if we help them get the information they need from Xu Yi, what help will it help us? The way to survive in the Duchy of Drake has always been to maintain a balance between the Kingdom of Lampari and Sack, and try not to be biased towards either side. Now my father makes such a choice, and I don't agree."
Anduin frowned: "The Grand Duke has no choice. Although our Duke of Drake could survive like this before, once either the Kingdom of Lampari or the Kingdom of Saks is determined, it will be difficult for us to really save ourselves."
"So I have always disagreed with this way of survival. Compared to giving your destiny to others to control, it is far better to take it into your own hands." Princess Caroline said.
"It's too difficult to do this." Anduin sighed: "Your Highness, Princess, we are just a small principality after all, and we don't have the strength to really compete with these two kingdoms that are much stronger than us."
"I didn't think I could do it before, but this time I was forced to come here to meet Xu Yi, but I found a little possibility." A hint of excitement flashed through Princess Caroline's eyes. "Anduin, you should know that the Kingdom of Sak was defeated miserably in the battle with the Kingdom of Lampari for the Murto Mountains last month, right?"
"Well, because the military of the northern army in the town of the Rampari Kingdom suddenly became very powerful, the Greedy Wolf Legion of the Sak Kingdom could not resist at all. This led to the loss of the Murto Mountains." Anduin nodded. "It is because of this that the Sak Kingdom secretly reached an agreement with the Grand Duke. It gave us benefits, let Your Highness, you come and inquire about the information."
Speaking of this, Antonin paused and sighed again: "Actually, I don't want the Grand Duke to make this decision. Princess, you are not such a person at all, but you have to install such an...unpretentious look according to the deployment of the Sak Kingdom Office. It's really embarrassing to you."
"It's nothing." Princess Caroline shook her head: "If it really works for our Drake Principality, my body is nothing. But I have to say that the guys in the Sack Kingdom underestimate this Xu Yi too much. He is not a person who can be captured by simple beauty. In addition, through contact with him these days, I find that something is strange."
“What’s strange?”
"I think... Xu Yi doesn't seem to care about the Lampari Kingdom. He has told me more than once that his greatest wish is to allow the magical machinery produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to spread throughout the continent, so that all people in this continent can live a comfortable new life."
"This is just what he deliberately boasted in front of you, right?" Anduin curled his lips disdainfully. "This kind of insignificant words is not bad to deceive the little girl. How could you be fooled by your princess?"
"Why did he lie to me?" Princess Caroline asked. "Don't forget, I clearly want to tempt him. He doesn't need to use sweet words to deceive me, because as long as he wants, I can have sex with him at any time. And I can really feel his sincerity from his words, so I think that both us and the guys in the Sach Kingdom have a very wrong judgment on him."
Anduin looked at Princess Caroline in shock: "Your Highness, you...you shouldn't really fall in love with him?"
Princess Caroline showed a sweet smile: "To be honest, I probably really like him a little. But as he told me, my attraction to him is not even as good as the two iron ore, and his attraction to me is far less than my desire to make our Drake Principality stronger."
"But you said again just now..."
"Yes, I discovered from him the possibility that our Drake Principality will become truly powerful." Princess Caroline said seriously: "So this time, I want to really cooperate with him." (To be continued...)
