Chapter 129 Partners
Qin Mo was very busy. He spent the Spring Festival of the sixth year of Zhaowu at sea. When he returned to Dayuan, it was already spring. He started teaching students at the Naval Academy and also had to find time to draw construction drawings for the newly planned steel plant. He felt that he was no longer a prince, but a donkey with a carrot hanging from its nose.
Today, I finally got my wish. I sailed out to sea in Kaihime's swimming boat, "Haruko," for a whole day, but I didn't catch a single fish.
Back in her castle that night, Kaihime hid in her room and didn't come out. She didn't even eat and went to sleep. She swam a couple of swims with Qin Mo, which exhausted her.
The moonlight in spring is beautiful, and the seaside is even more beautiful. Qin Mo is eating barbecue alone, without any beautiful maids by her side, only a group of silly huskies fighting over the bones.
These huskies followed him from the far north to the warm climate of Dayuan. They almost all died from the change in environment, which made Qin Mo extremely anxious. They had accompanied Qin Mo through the best period of his life and were no longer just ordinary pets.
Fortunately, with the help of elves who are good at communicating with animals, these adorable animals from the northern snowfields were able to adapt to the warm climate of Taiyuan.
Qin Mo's homemade juicer is very useful; the pure juice goes well with grilled skewers. It's a pity he can't brew beer, otherwise he could definitely relive his school days and banish loneliness and solitude from his heart.
A tall figure appeared before Qin Mo, finally making her happy.
"Allen, you've finally shown up! I'm starting to regret sending the elves to deal with the spices. You've been nowhere to be seen. It's been so long since I've had a drink with you!"
Qin Mo deftly made Allen a glass of juice. "Come on, let's toast to our wealth!"
Allen didn't take the juice, but instead faced behind Qin Mo and said coldly, "I think this juice should be offered to our guests."
Qin Mo turned around abruptly. Anyone who could approach him silently was no pushover. After all, even Allen admitted that Qin Mo was already a freak in the Xuan Realm.
"I'm just sitting here quietly for a while. Don't you think it's not gentlemanly to disturb someone's peace and quiet?"
Her cool voice remained unchanged, and her tall figure emerged from the seaside mist, appearing even more elegant.
Qin Mo's face showed neither elation nor astonishment, but only a faint smile that warmed the heart.
"Hi! Danfeng, it's been a long time!"
"………………haven't seen you for a long time!"
Wang Yushi paused for a moment, but still answered, her cold voice unconsciously softening.
There were no seats by the sea, so Qin Mo's seat was a large rock. Just as he was about to move two more rocks over, Wang Yushi flicked her long sleeves, and a huge rock floated over. An invisible force sliced it open, and it landed on both ends of the grill like two flat stone benches.
"It seems you've turned misfortune into blessing, but unfortunately you didn't take that step, so you're no match for me in the end."
Allen did not accept the invitation to sit down, and his words were still full of sarcasm.
“I’m not here to fight you. I’m here at the invitation of my brother to discuss our affairs. Since the spices were obtained by you elves, you are naturally an insider. Otherwise, do you think you deserve a seat?”
Wang Yushi's expression turned cold again. She sat down gently and drank the juice Qin Mo had poured, as if she were sitting on her own phoenix throne in the palace, oblivious to everyone around her.
“Allen, this big business is a partnership between the two of us. Whether we can build a big ship and find my mother depends on this. Now she is our partner, one of our own.”
Qin Mo stood up and pulled Allen back to his seat. This aloof elf might be a stubborn mule, but when he got angry, he was definitely a violent one.
"Hmph! I hope you remember what you said up north!"
Allen snorted and stretched out his hands slightly. The moonlight shone on the stone in front of him, like a pair of bright hands engraving a beautiful work of art.
In the blink of an eye, the "stone bench" that Wang Yushi had thrown over had transformed into a real stone bench, with intricate tassels and lifelike patterns, forming an indescribable work of art.
"The power of the moon...you...are very close." Wang Yushi murmured, finally revealing a hint of envy in her voice.
Allen didn't say anything, but simply sat down on the stone bench. The flickering flames illuminated the three people sitting around, as if they had returned to that cold night outside Ulan-Ude.
"Here! Freshly grilled, one skewer each, experience the power of the spices. We can talk business better after we've eaten our fill, so don't be impolite!"
The fresh squid sizzled as it was grilled and handed to Wang Yushi and Allen. This time, neither of them were coy and accepted it, slowly eating it. The squid was coated with a lot of spices, giving it a rich flavor.
"It's really good; these spices are indeed special."
After Wang Yushi finished eating, she exclaimed in admiration. Qin Mo quickly offered her another skewer, but she waved her hand to indicate that she didn't want it and said, "Since you've brought me all this way here, this business must be quite something, right? How much do you make each year? And what's the price?"
"I don't know how many spices are produced each year."
Qin Mo's words made Wang Yushi frown. If it were anyone else making fun of her, they would probably be close to death. With her current status and cultivation, very few people would dare to speak to her so casually.
"I don't know how many there are each year, but it's no less than 20,000 dan. Danfeng, can you handle that?"
After hearing this, Wang Yushi rolled her eyes at Qin Mo, her expression full of reproach, which made Qin Mo feel very comfortable. Few people had ever seen the Empress with such charm.
"If it's not 20,000 dan, what's so difficult about 100,000 dan?"
Wang Yushi's style is very casual and domineering.
