lol: I was a bad prince in Demacia

"Forty sheets in one minute?"

"Yes, Navis said, the speed of the improved version may be even faster."

While Lu Qi responded, he made room to reveal Navis who was hiding behind him.

Navis was startled, nodded her head hurriedly, and said tremblingly, "For example, if my expectation is followed, the improved version can print 1 sheets in one minute."

If it takes 10 minutes, it is [-] sheets, and [-] sheets in one hour.

This is just one machine, ten machines produce [-] sheets an hour.

This made Tiana's eyes twinkle, and with her shrewdness, she naturally saw why Lu Qi came.

She looked at Lu Qi: "Do you want to borrow someone?"

Lu Qi nodded upon hearing this.

Tiana said: "I can directly borrow people from your scientific research institute, but there must be conditions. This printing machine includes an improved version, and the official must also have it."

Lu Qi was speechless when he heard the words: "It's as if I don't borrow someone, aunt, you won't come to ask for it."

Tiana froze for a moment, then laughed and said, "I almost forgot that you are one of my own."

Isn't the official position centered on the royal family and expand outwards?

And Tiana is the unified representative of these officials. Even though she is the Marshal of Demacia, she thinks that Tiana just cares about the war and is done.

In fact, she has to take care of many things outside of the military.

And Lu Qi, as the son of the third generation, no one is more official than him...

At this moment, Lu Qi asked again: "Is it easier to talk now?"

Tiana nodded and said, "I can lend you 20 people for half a month."

"Only twenty? Auntie, I'm not begging for food."

Lu Qi shook his head and stretched out a hand: "Fifty, one month."

Tiana also shook her head: "25, still half a month, the scientific research institute is full of talents, much better than ordinary craftsmen outside, 25 is already a lot."

"Even if they are all geniuses, that's the efficiency of 25 people. I'm here to borrow people, not brains. 45 people, one month."

Lu Qi's attitude is also very firm.

Tiana frowned, exuding a strong sense of oppression all over her body, and said lightly: "Thirty, half a month, let alone no more."

Feeling such momentum, the three Navises began to tremble at this moment.

"Don't scare people." Lu Qi insisted without fear, "Forty, one month!"

Mei Li and Ke Sen looked at Lu Qi's back with admiration in their eyes.

As expected of His Royal Highness, I am afraid that he is the only one who dares to bargain with the marshal like this.

Seeing that she couldn't be intimidated, Tiana put away her momentum and said with a light smile, "Thirty is my last concession."

Lu Qi said speechlessly: "Are you so stingy with your own people?"

"Brothers have to settle accounts clearly." Tiana shrugged and said, "Everyone lends to you, so do you still want the scientific research institute?"

The old hag muttered to herself, Lu Qi reached out and groped in her arms, then took out the concept map of the bicycle inside, and patted it on the table: "Then what about adding this?"

Tiana showed interest in her eyes, picked up the concept map and looked at it for a few times, her expression gradually changed.

A few minutes later, she raised her head and looked at Lu Qi seriously: "Can you make this too?"

Lu Qi showed a smile: "Basically, we just need to start work."

Looking at the self-confidence on this kid's face now, Tiana couldn't doubt it.

Believe it almost immediately.

Because, there are a bunch of little secrets in this kid who can't be dug out. Before that, a microphone and a printing machine have been made.

This bike is probably one of them.

After thinking for a while, Tiana was just about to bargain.

Lu Qi took the concept drawing back with a smile, and proposed a condition that could not be refused: "Seventy, one month."

Tiana immediately laughed and scolded: "I'll just give you the research institute!"

Lu Qi thought for a while: "It's not impossible, I even found the dean of the research institute."

As he said that, he also glanced at Navis.

Tiana also looked over, and Navis suddenly trembled in fear.

Tiana smiled and said: "This little girl is still too young, wait a few years, let's talk about 50 people, one month, no more."

As for Navis' ability, she recognized it.

She really didn't expect that the Menke family, which has been declining over the years, now has such a nice little girl.

Putting it next to Lu Qi, I am afraid that within a few years, he will have the qualifications to become the dean of the scientific research institute.

Where is the research institute?

That's where the craftsmen and inventors of the entire Demacia stay, and basically all the people who can get in are talented people, so Lucius spends all his time bargaining here.

Borrowing one person from that place is equivalent to finding two from outside.

The most important thing is that the borrowers don't have to pay, the royal family will pay them wages.

"Okay, fifty people, one month."

Lu Qi thought for a while and agreed with this condition.

It's not bad to be able to prostitute [-] talents for nothing for a month. What he wants to think about now is how to squeeze out the talents of these scientific research institutes in this month.

Seeing that the kid was already thinking about it, Tiana threw a silver medal to Lu Qi: "Go, take this to the scientific research institute to pick someone."

Lu Qi took the silver medal, the effect of this thing is the same as the token, the token is equal to the order.

"Thank you, aunt."

Lu Qi hehe smiled.

Seeing him turn and leave, Tiana also showed a helpless smile.

At this time, Mei Li and Ke Sen, who did not dare to breathe during the whole process, left Tiana's office, and then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really too nervous, and after they were relieved, they immediately looked at Navis.

There was also a faint urge to hug his thigh in his eyes.

This girl was hand-picked by the marshal, and she will be the dean of the scientific research institute in the future, which is too awesome.

"Navis, did you hear that? Work hard, and you will be the dean of the Academy of Sciences in the future."

Walking in front, Lu Qi said something with a smile while throwing the silver medal in his hand.

Hearing his words, Navis lowered her head and said softly, "I don't want to be the dean of the research institute."

Mei Li and Ke Sen were stunned when they heard this.

Look, are you speaking human words?

The position that the Menke family and inventors across the country have dreamed of, how can you give it to you and you don't want to be it?

Lu Qi also said strangely: "Why don't you want to? Once you reach that position, you will be honored and respected wherever you go."

Navis whispered, "I just want to stay by His Highness's side."

This is not a confession, but her simple long-cherished wish.

She set a very simple goal for her life.

That is to spare no effort and use what I have learned all my life to help His Royal Highness.

This made Lu Qi a little surprised. He caught the falling silver medal and didn't throw it up again. Instead, he handed it in front of Navis, and said with a smile, "That's inappropriate."

Navis took the silver medal in front of her and nodded slightly.

At this time, Meili and Corson suddenly realized.

small!

Their format is small!

What dean is not the dean.

Is it important to have the thighs of His Royal Highness?

The two shook their heads and sighed, they didn't expect that they lost to Navis in this respect.

However, at this time they had changed their minds.

I don't want to hug His Royal Highness's thigh, as long as I can hug Navis' thigh.

Diarrhea for a day... I advise everyone not to drink cold water in the middle of the night.

Chapter 96 In the end, the clown was me

After Lu Qi and the others left the palace, they got into the carriage and set off in the direction of the scientific research institute.

The carriage drove for a while, and after about 10 minutes, it slowly stopped.

Lu Qi got out of the carriage first, and saw the base of the scientific research institute. It is a large building with a unique style, and it has a taste of engineering.

There were also guards at the gate, and when they saw Lu Qi, they saluted respectfully.

One of the guards asked, "Your Highness, what are you doing here?"

Lu Qi looked at him and said, "Take me to see the dean."

The guard turned around and said, "Follow me."

After entering the hall with the guards leading the way, you can see a statue in the center, which looks very familiar.

After taking a closer look, Lu Qi remembered that he had seen the same one in the Menke family before, so the identity of this statue is probably Dulan.

It's just that Du Lang here looks older, and his eyes appear wiser. With an open book in his hand, he has a rather elegant demeanor.

Lu Qi withdrew his gaze and looked into the hall. There were people coming and going in the hall. Except for the patrolling guards, the rest were basically scholars from the Academy of Sciences.

"This way."

The guard turned to the right.

The place of the research institute is not small, there are several areas, and many people are in a hurry on the way, looking very busy.

Navis and the three of them looked at the interior of the scientific research institute curiously from beginning to end. Even if they were the heirs of the Menke family, they were not qualified to enter a place like the scientific research institute on weekdays.

Those who can enter here are either soldiers guarding the security, or someone with a particularly noble status like Lu Qi.

The last one comes in based on strength.

Not to mention Navis, Mei Li and Ke Sen are definitely not qualified.

After leading the way, several people finally arrived at the door of the dean's room.

The guard raised his hand and knocked on the door, saying: "Principal, His Royal Highness has come."

After the words were finished, the door was opened immediately, and a middle-aged man glanced at him and said, "Please come in, Your Royal Highness, and the rest of you should wait outside."

With that said, he stepped aside.

Lu Qi walked in, but the three of Navis didn't want to follow in, so they waited outside.

"Your Highness, please follow me."

After entering the room, there were still several rooms inside. The man who opened the door led Lu Qi to the left.

Pushing open a door, I saw a man bent over inside, holding a tool in his hand, studying something. He was wearing a monocle, wearing a loose robe, and looked about 40 years old.

This person is the dean of the Academy of Sciences.

On the way here, Lu Qi learned from Mei Li and his brother that the current dean of the scientific research institute also belongs to the Menke family.

His name is Wenward Durand Menke. He is the third eldest in the family, has no children, and is only in his forties. He has already served as the dean of the scientific research institute, and his ability is very outstanding.
