Tomorrow's Ark, the Battle of the Sick

After exchanging pleasantries, the doctor handed the document, which is considered as a commercial secret and only customers can browse, to the Queen with both hands. The Queen moved a little slower, but still took the document naturally.

The Queen already knew the specific content before the official meeting, but this is an essential process and etiquette. The Queen read it for about 2 minutes, which was neither too long nor too short.

"Before that, I heard that Rhodes Island is developing a 'new type of polymer'?" The queen put down the document and looked at the doctor meaningfully, "If the information is true, I want to confirm whether this batch of polymer is defective. It's very important to the people of Victoria."

"—Where did His Majesty hear the rumor?"

"I have my own eyes and ears, and I am not reprimanding. I just want to know the authenticity of this matter and your answer." The queen looked at the doctor seriously, "At least this last thing, I want to do it perfectly."

Looking at the serious queen, the doctor hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Although it has not been made public yet, if His Majesty needs to know - '002 Type' is an improved variety based on '001 Type', it is not so much an enhanced version as it is an antidote developed for a specific crux."

"Specific symptoms?"

"Yes, as we all know, ore disease is characterized by the formation of crystals everywhere in the body, but the crystals are a manifestation of infection rather than the main cause, and the current polymer is sufficient to cure most ore diseases."

The doctor pointed to the brightly colored gold test tubes on the file.

"But according to our investigation, there are still a very small number of infected people with special constitutions. Due to the location of the crystallization, even if the ore disease is successfully cured, there will be a small amount of traces. '002 Type' is developed for this very small number of crux. Improved breed."

"Very few—what's the approximate percentage?"

"According to our statistical data, there will be about two or three people in 1 people. Rhode Island has taken care of such patients, so '002' will not affect the effectiveness of '001' polymer, but it is a rare Complementary approach to symptoms."

Although the doctor's expression could not be seen clearly, his calm and sincere voice made the queen gradually let go of her suspicions.

"Then—I decided to add an order for '002-type polymerizer'. If there is no stock, make an order first. It doesn't need to be too much, at least we have it."

"—I'm sorry, because the time of the research and development work cannot be determined, I hope His Majesty will consider it carefully, and you can also order it after the development is successful and sold."

"No, in order to avoid accidental delays in the future, this order is handed over to you—just a little gift from me for the people."

Seeing that the queen was making preparations for the infected, the doctor accepted her order.

Then the doctor continued to confirm the remaining terms, discounts, and the Queen one by one. At this time, the two parties did not have too many constraints in high positions, and began to negotiate on the price of the polymerization agent.

As a result, the queen won the negotiation.

Thanks to the Queen's negotiating skills, the price of the polymer was reduced by ten per cent, which, given the size of the order, would save Victoria a great deal.

"Worthy of being a queen, almost no details were missed."

"It's just the knowledge and skills I have mastered since I was a child, and you are the ones who suffer. I am not worthy of flattery."

"No," the doctor shook his head earnestly, "The queen has done a good job on this point. Although the positions are different, this is a respectable approach."

"--thanks."

After another half an hour, when the two parties finally settled on the time to sign the order, the doctor bid farewell to the queen, and then left the palace in a vehicle.

This negotiation was much easier than the queen expected.

After the doctor left, only the queen was left sitting by the window in the living room, but she was not in the slightest happy with the victory of the negotiation.

Even if the Queen has to save every penny for Victoria's struggling finances, and even if the Doctor's acting is pretty good, the Queen can see it.

In the negotiation just now, the doctor has been guiding the Queen to make a counter-offer and take the initiative to make concessions.

So the queen finally expressed her gratitude to the doctor, thanking the doctor for being willing to cooperate with her poor acting skills and fulfill her last wish before abdicating.

"Since you don't want to pretend to be a gentleman—but stick to it—"

Recalling what the doctor said just now, the queen was a little dazed.

Unlike the countries on the trip, this time Rhodes Island did not let Victoria arrange a residence, but directly lived in the high-end Victorian villa provided by Whale Song Company for Razer.

In the afternoon, when the doctor was admiring the scenery on the balcony, the king of advancement handed him a document.

"Doctor, this is the general idea that Ghost Shark and I have for the General Staff. Since there are many departments involved, and Dr. Kelsey needs to be nominated, we can only make a rough proposal first, and hand it over to everyone after we return to Rhodes Island. discuss."

"Thanks for your hard work. I'll do it for Kelsey and Amiya. You guys are the best at this kind of work. Just think carefully about it."

"—good doctor."

"By the way, when I left the palace just now, I bought you a box of lollipops with new flavors." After receiving the documents, the doctor smiled and pointed to the exquisite packaging box on the table, "Should I say that it is Victoria, what is there in the supermarket?" Both."

"—Thank you, Doctor~"

Although a little embarrassed, the King of Propulsion did not refuse the doctor's curiosity, picked up the lollipop from the table, and swished his tail happily.

However, neither the Doctor nor the King of Propulsion took the initiative to mention Queen Victoria.

It wasn't long after King of Propulsion left the balcony that Ghost Shark walked in with the document in his arms.

"Doctor, the angel sent new information."

"--this time?" The doctor looked at the calm and pretty face of the ghost shark and the stack of documents she put on the tea table, with a subtle expression. "To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that the Integration Movement had retreated and Tallulah was imprisoned in Rhodes Island, I might really have thought they were plotting against us again."

"That's what you said—I didn't expect the doctor to complain about them~?"

"After all, it hasn't stopped since the beginning of Longmen. The integration movement, the Colombian gang—" the doctor shook his head helplessly while opening the file, "The most important thing is to disturb my time with you."

"—Yes, indeed."

The doctor's words made Ghost Shark both happy and helpless, although she also hoped that the doctor would be more relaxed.
