"I wonder what's up, Your Majesty?"
"President Guan, please take a seat. Of course, I have something to discuss with you!" Zhang Tie stopped writing as he raised his head and threw a glance at Guan Minjun's poker face. Perhaps because this woman looked a bit like Olina, Zhang Tie found that he had a good temper each time he saw her. He could barely be angry with this woman.
"Whatever you want, Your Majesty, just let me know!" Guan Minjun sat down with her back straight. "Even the female generals of our Earth-Treasures Department can come here to greet Your Majesty without my permission. If Your Majesty needs anything, just tell me..."
President Guan said angrily. When Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin left Dragon Emperor City a few months ago, it was Zhang Tie's special permission. Zhang Tie didn't negotiate anything with Guan Minjun before that. No wonder this woman was still angry.
'I'd rather offend demons than women.' At the sight of Guan Minjun, Zhang Tie finally had a deeper understanding about Donder's words.
The moment Zhang Tie wanted to open his mouth …
"But let me make one thing clear first. The Earthly Treasures Department doesn't have any more element crystals now. The usage of each element crystal has been budgeted in installments. Your Majesty, you don't have any element crystals. If you want my life, I only have one. Or, Your Majesty, you can appoint someone else to be the head of the Earthly Treasures Department!" Guan Minjun said coldly.
The moment Zhang Tie wanted to say something, he had to swallow it back.
"Forget it. Now that President Guan couldn't afford any more element crystals, I will not trouble you anymore. I will have someone else do it!" Zhang Tie let out a sigh helplessly.
"Your Majesty, is there anything else?"
"Nothing else!"
"I have a lot of things to deal with in Earth-Treasures Department. This humble man will leave now!" Guan Minjun directly stood up. After bowing towards Zhang Tie, she turned around and left as she treated Zhang Tie as a plague.
"Previously, I had something to do here which could help Earth-Treasures Department make hundreds of thousands of element crystals in a short period. Now that President Guan doesn't want to make them, forget it …"
When Guan Minjun almost strode over the threshold of Yangxin Palace, Zhang Tie muttered in a pitiful tone.
As expected, Guan Minjun stopped at once. Closely after that, the president of Earthly Treasures Department turned back as if nothing had happened. After that, he sat back in his chair and said calmly, "I just remembered that Earthly Treasures Department still has some element crystals that haven't been included in the budget. They can be used!"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "President Guan, don't force yourself!"
Guan Minjun said in all seriousness, "It is the duty of the Earth Treasures Department to share Your Majesty's worries. Your Majesty does not need to regard me as an outsider!"
"That's good. I'll leave it to Earthly Treasures Department. Earthly Treasures Department will pay for it!" Zhang Tie raised his hand while that piece of paper flew up and fell onto the table in front of Guan Minjun.
This ability was not like the object controlling skill of divine dominator; instead, it was just a small method that knights used to utilize their battle qi, which was not worth mentioning.
Guan Minjun picked up the piece of paper that flew onto her desk and read it carefully.
On the paper was a sketch of a building, which was similar to the sketch of the Forbidden City that Zhang Tie had just drawn. However, Zhang Tie's sketch of the Forbidden City contained more patterns and preserved the original look of the Forbidden City in the world where Zhang Tie came from. However, the sketch that Zhang Tie had just drawn was Zhang Tie's original work.
There was nothing special about the outline of the building on the sketch. As the president of Earthly Treasures Department, of course, Guan Minjun would not make a fuss about it. What really made Guan Minjun widely open her eyes was the interior design of the building.
The interior of the building covered over 20,000 square meters. However, the ground of over 20,000 square meters was covered with brilliant patterns composed of element crystals. Those patterns were very beautiful; however, they were so luxurious that people would feel guilty at the sight of them.
If Zhang Tie didn't indicate that those patterns were element crystals, Guan Minjun might think that the beautiful patterns were made of something else. However, Zhang Tie had made it clear. Therefore, it was impossible for Guan Minjun to misunderstand him.
Guan Minjun turned around and watched Zhang Tie at a stroke as she tightly pursed her lips silently. However, her eyes contained confusion, a bit fury, disappointment, grief and indignation — — Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is so poor that we can't even feed ourselves. How could you be so extravagant here? 'Do you want me to die in front of you …'
Zhang Tie immediately understood the meaning in her eyes. However, he didn't intend to explain it to her. Because it was a commercial means in the world where Zhang Tie came from. If you wanted others to pay for something, you had to pay for it first. By doing that, you had to act like a local tycoon so that others would pay for it. This was related to people's subtle psychology …
'Everything is for Dragon Emperor Medicament. By then, this woman will understand it …'
"The more luxurious the building in this sketch is, the better. The earlier it is built, the better. It should be completed before January 1st next year at latest. As for the concrete location of the building, you could negotiate with the people of Heavenly Craftsmanship Department inside Dragon Emperor City or outside Dragon Emperor City after taking this sketch. I only have one sentence for you — — no matter how many crystal coins and element crystals Earthly Treasures Department pays for this building, I promise to pay for it 5 times within 1 year after its completion …"
"5 times?" Guan Minjun asked while gritting her teeth, "Your Majesty, is that true?"
"Yes!"
"What if you can't pay for it?" Guan Minjun asked.
"If so, I will devote myself to you …"
"Your Majesty, you …"
"Ahem … ahem, I'm just kidding. President Guan, don't be angry. I'm just trying to enliven the atmosphere. If a woman always keeps a straight face, she would easily grow old. Additionally, it's not good for marriage!" Watching Guan Minjun's blushing face, Zhang Tie hurriedly hid his smile as he turned solemn, "I've already told you. President Guan, you could choose to believe it or not. If you don't believe it, you could put down that sketch and leave here!"
After gazing at Zhang Tie for a few seconds, Guan Minjun stood up and left with that sketch.
'Motherf * cker, this woman is too special. She didn't even say goodbye to me. I'm Dragon Emperor. Do all men who don't make money have such a treatment in front of women?'
Zhang Tie thought helplessly.
…
Outside Yangxin Palace, when President Guan felt that she had completely left Zhang Tie's sight, her face blushed unconsciously. She touched her face and felt a bit hot. Closely after that, she accelerated her footsteps out of flurried …
…
Soon after Guan Minjun left, Hong Yukun had arrived.
Compared to Guan Minjun who looked gloomy towards Zhang Tie, Hong Yukun the former internal servant of Dragon Emperor Pavilion looked like an aggrieved wife who had been bullied …
After Zhang Tie became Dragon Emperor and moved to the Forbidden City, Hong Yukun previously thought that he was destined to be the general manager of the Forbidden City. He had not imagined that His Majesty directly dismissed him as the internal servant of Dragon Emperor Pavilion and sent him to the ravine to deal with those vials and jars.
These days, Hong Yukun didn't feel like an immortal general at all; instead, he was more like a farmer making pickles. Therefore, he couldn't express his disappointment …
"Your Majesty, I'm Hong Yukun …" Hong Yukun's voice turned sorrowful at the sight of Zhang Tie …
…
