Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

Chapter 43 Miss Pink Hippo's Eggshell.

Because they didn't speak, Helmut 37 would naturally give the surname Helmut to Li De, and from then on, Li De would become a member of the royal family.

This was something that many nobles and church leaders could not tolerate, and the royal family must not dominate.

Seeing a group of people jumping out, Helmut 37's face was also very ugly, but he couldn't get angry.

"Your Majesty, I have a surname." Li De saw this scene, although he didn't understand the twists and turns inside, but he roughly thought that it should be a problem caused by the surname. In this case, it would be easy to solve.

"Do you have a surname?" Not only did Helmut 37 hear some of the proposals, but everyone else was surprised.

"It's like this, I promised my Alfred that if I could become a noble, I would inherit his surname. After all, he left his legacy to me, and it's right for me to inherit his surname. Now I can be called Li De Rayford." Li De directly carried the dead Alfred out.

Of course, no one would fight with a dead person, especially when Alfred Rayford was just a lonely man with no related family.

This was also a happy result that everyone present could accept. Compared with being connected with any family, it was in the best interests of everyone for Li De to become a lone minister.

"So that's it. I didn't expect that Li Deqing's family was willing to inherit their friend's surname. It seems that Alfred really made a good friend, but it's a pity that he died young." Helmut XXXVII couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Majesty, this is a rare virtue. We can promote Baron Rayford's character, and I suggest that Baron Rayford should go to the church to receive a formal baptism." Cardinal Hohenheim said at the first time.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this should be promoted." Klim on the side couldn't help but say, after all, Li De gave him a surprise.

In any case, Alfred was his good friend. Someone was willing to inherit his surname, or as a noble, which was really a good thing.

"Then leave it to Cardinal Hohenheim. Lord Rayford, I have something to ask of you." Helmut 37th was unwilling to continue to dwell on the issue of surnames, but changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, please speak." Li De did not answer like Wendelin. Of course, Li De himself was a commoner and had not received aristocratic education, so no one dared to say that Li De was impolite.

"I hope you can sell the body of the old earth dragon that was conquered this time, along with the dragon crystal." Helmut 37th said gently.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I can only give up the body of the old earth dragon at most. As for the dragon blood and dragon crystal, I have other uses." Li De refused without hesitation, without any compromise.

If it were usual, it is estimated that at this moment, several ministers who wanted to please His Majesty would have stood up and scolded Li De for not knowing etiquette and rules, and even proposed direct collection.

However, Li De was extraordinary. The noble ministers wanted to see such a scene, so they naturally would not stand up and say more, so as not to leave a bad impression on Li De.

"The Lyon family, let's not talk about dragon blood for now. Dragon crystals are of great significance to the kingdom. I hope the Li De family can consider it carefully." Helmut 37th was not angry. It was mainly because Li De's growth trajectory and strength made it impossible for him to vent his emotions easily.

"Your Majesty, dragon crystals are just the power source of the magic airship for the kingdom, and this does not require dragon crystals. Any large magic crystal stone will do. I wonder if I am wrong?" Li De asked Helmut 37th.

"The Li De family is knowledgeable, it is true, but large magic crystal stones are too difficult to find, so substitutes are needed." Helmut 37th nodded and said.     "Your Majesty, in the past year, I found a relic, a very special relic. The knowledge preserved from ancient times in this relic is enough to solve the shortage of large magic crystal stones and many related problems of magic airships." Li De answered slowly.

"Li Deqing, are you serious? I wonder where the ruins are now?" Helmut 37th was really shocked this time. Not only him, but everyone present was shocked.

"Your Majesty, I will not lie. As for the ruins, they are not far away. They are in the belly of the trapezoidal rock mountain in the suburbs of the royal capital. There is also a dock for the construction and maintenance of magic flying ships and a golem production line. It can be used as a base. If it is well maintained and built, it is completely feasible to use it as a temporary palace when the royal capital is in crisis." Li De still said slowly.

"This is really." Helmut 37th didn't know what to say at this moment.

It was really that Li De brought him too much shock. As long as Li De didn't exaggerate, the military impact of this ruin on the kingdom was absolutely huge.

Of course, another thing came next. The ruins were discovered by Li De. With Li De's strength, the kingdom could only use the method of purchase to take away many rights and interests from Li De.

After all, Li De told this news after becoming a noble. If it was before becoming a noble, it would be another matter.

That is to say, the royal family needs to spend a large sum of money to purchase the ruins. After spending a large sum of money, the development of the Parkenya grassland will be a bit slow, and the royal family is definitely unwilling to divide the Parkenya grassland to other nobles.

So at this moment, Helmut 37th realized for the first time that happiness coming too fast and too much is not a good thing.

"Li Deqing's family, regarding the follow-up of the ruins, I have to send experts to investigate and evaluate before I can give you an accurate answer. Although the follow-up matters will take some time, I can think of giving you a reward. I wonder if your family wants anything."

This time, Helmut 37th was very smart and did not mention the purchase again. After all, Li De said it for this reason.

Naturally, there is no need to continue the matter of dragon crystal. Helmut 37th is so ignorant.

And he has made great contributions. Even if it has not been confirmed, Helmut 37th has to make a statement first based on Li De's character and strength.

"I want the eggshell of Miss Pink Hippo." Li De was not vague and said this directly.

Puff!

Cough cough!

After hearing the reward that Li De wanted, the atmosphere inside the entire meeting hall suddenly became a little awkward.

Because the eggshells of monsters like Pink and Miss Ma have only one effect, that is, to treat male impotence, and the effect is extremely powerful, and can bring those who are completely impotent back to a state of virility.

It is for this reason that monsters like Pink and Miss Ma are listed as protected monsters of the kingdom and are rare species.
