LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia.

"Navis!"

Lu Qi's voice was a little louder and he said, "I'll give you a task. I order you to develop a microphone as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Navis stood up straight subconsciously and replied: "Yes!"

Eh?

Then, she was stunned for a moment.

Why did you accept a mission so confusedly?

"I'm waiting for your good news."

Lu Qi smiled.

Microphone, what a great thing.

After researching it, I will install one at home. When he gets up every day and his mouth is dry, he doesn't have to get out of bed and can just call Urna.

It's not worth he wasted his breath for so long!

"Your Highness, I heard that you came to me for other matters."

After Navis came to her senses, her voice returned to normal, sounding like she had no strength.

"Ah, yes." Lu Qi also remembered the real purpose of his coming here today, "I will tell you about the newspaper."

Not much to talk about this time, just a concept.

After listening, Navis sighed: "I had a similar idea before. But when I proposed it, many people laughed at me, and I didn't have the funds to prepare."

Currently, Demacia basically uses transcription and lithography methods, which are very rigid and inflexible.

Generally, official announcements are transcribed by specialized personnel and then posted outside for the people to see.

Lithographic printing can basically only deal with books, because the content of books is rigid. You only need to burn the fixed words, then copy them with ink and paper, then fix the papers together and affix them to the leather surface prepared in advance.

The whole process is very laborious and time-consuming.

Don't look at Lu Qi and others who read books every day. In fact, private books are extremely expensive.

There is even a profession that specializes in copying books and writing for others.

Therefore, if you want to go big on printing, it will definitely cost money in the initial stage.

Whether it's paper, equipment, or manpower and material resources, it's a lot of money, and the three thousand gold coins Lu Qi has on him may not be enough.

That's why he roped in Lux, Fiona, and Kashina to join him.

Without being sure that this thing will definitely become popular in the future, naturally no one would dare to try it easily.

It stands to reason that Navis is a young lady from a retainer family, so she should be qualified.

However, in fact, this is not the case.

Because her mother did not listen to her family's advice and secretly married an ordinary craftsman, she is now not very popular in the family.

Even though her name contains the word "minke", some people regard her as an outsider.

Looking at the girl who lowered her head in front of him, Lu Qi said: "You don't have to worry about this problem now. Just follow your ideas and do it boldly."

Navis raised her head, looked at Lu Qi, and said somewhat unconfidently: "But... can I do it? Why don't you find someone else?"

In terms of talent, she doesn't seem to be the most outstanding member of the Menke family.

She often makes inventions that are useless, causing many people in the family to think that she is the stupidest one.

He clearly has no merit.

Lu Qi looked her up and down and said seriously: "Because the others don't seem to be as easy to fool as you."

Navis: "???"

She couldn't help but stay on the spot.

What is the reason?

"Then it's settled, from now on, you will work for His Highness."

Seeing that she seemed to be a little confused, Lu Qi immediately made the final decision.

"Hey, wait." Navis quickly reacted and wanted to say something.

She hasn't said yet whether she is willing to accept it.

Lu Qi stared at her and snorted coldly: "What, you want to reject His Highness? I ask you, are you willing?"

Under the gaze of those starry eyes, Navis suddenly felt a lot of pressure. She lowered her head nervously, her face flushed a little, but she didn't have the courage to refuse, and finally said weakly: "Yes."

When she said this, she was so aggrieved that she almost cried.

"You're wise." Lu Qi didn't care. He hadn't met such a bully girl for a long time, so naturally he wasn't ready to let it go, so he said even more fiercely, "Don't worry, His Highness won't let you work for free. Occasionally, if you feel like it, If you do well, I can give you a monthly salary of ten gold."

Navis raised her head blankly, her expression even more confused.

Ten gold a month.

And I still feel good sometimes.

She suddenly felt that her life was gloomy.

"Okay, stop bullying her!"

At this time, Lux on the side couldn't stand it anymore, rushed up and punched Lu Qi, and then glared at him fiercely.

Then, she took Navis away and comforted: "Don't be afraid, I can add more hardware to you in private."

Navis: "."

You two, where did the devil come from!

Is there a big difference between ten gold and fifteen gold?

In the end, it was Kashina who acted as a white face and comforted Navis's mood.

But in the end, Navis didn't say whether she was willing or not.

Anyway, I was already on board the boat in a daze.

And all four of them discovered one thing, that is, Navis was really easy to bully.

She is an honest and boundless girl, quite weak in nature, and has a submissive personality.

Of course, Lu Qi was basically the only one present who would bully others, and there was no chance now, because Navis was temporarily protected.

At this moment, everyone is changing venues.

Because the Menke family is a family of craftsmen, they have a large workshop within the family, which can be regarded as the industrial base for their internal staff.

General research and development is done here.

With Navis leading the way, everyone moved forward.

When he arrived at the place, Lu Qi found a square here. In the center of the square was a three or four-meter-high statue, which looked like a leopard or a lion.

After taking a closer look, this statue seemed to be made of Forbidden Demon Stone, and it should have a certain history.

Lu Qi looked through his memory from the book he had read. The name of this statue was probably "Anti-Magic Quartz Formation Beast".

Rumor has it that this quartz statue was used to charge into battle on ancient battlefields.

This reminded Lu Qi of the giant statue outside the city, Galio.

It has the same story. In ancient times, people used it to fight mages. The battles it appeared in were often one-sided, and it was regarded as a heroic colossus by countless Demacians.

But now, this has become a legend.

Already, in people's minds, the giant statue outside the city seemed to have never moved.

These stories were later thought to be made up, and although they were not forgotten, no one believed them.

After all, there are no moving stone statues.

Withdrawing his thoughts from the position beast in front of him, Lu Qi looked around. One steel building after another was lined up in a circle, and what struck him was a mechanical feeling.
