Chapter 1741: Commercial Means

“Your Majesty, may I know what’s the matter?”

“Please take a seat, President Guan. Of course, I have something to negotiate with you, President Guan!” Zhang Tie answered as he put down his ink brush and took a look at Guan Minjun’s poker face. Not knowing why, Zhang Tie always felt pretty easy-going whenever he saw her. Perhaps she looked a bit like Olina.

“Go ahead, Your Majesty!” Guan Minjun sat down straightly as she added, “Even the female immortal generals of Earth-Treasures Department could ask for leave from Your Majesty without my consent, if Your Majesty has any order, just let me know…”

President Guan said with anger; because Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin were agreed to leave Dragon Emperor City a few months ago by Zhang Tie. However, Zhang Tie didn’t even negotiate with Guan Minjun about anything before. No wonder this woman was always angry with him.

Zhang Tie finally deeply understood the pet phrase of Donder——I prefer to offend demons rather than women.

Before Zhang Tie opened his mouth…

“But I have to make it clear. Earth-Treasures Department couldn’t spare any surplus element crystal anymore. Each element crystal in Earth-Treasures Department has been in the budget by installment. I don’t have more element crystals if Your Majesty wants. You could kill me for that. Perhaps Your Majesty could choose another person to be the new president of Earth-Treasures Department!” Guan Minjun said distantly.

After hearing her warning, Zhang Tie instantly became silent.

“Alright. Now that President Guan couldn’t spare any more element crystals, I will not bother you anymore. I will find someone else to do that!” Zhang Tie sighed helplessly.

“What else, Your Majesty?”

“That’s all!”

“I’ve got a lot of things to deal with in Earth-Treasures Department. This humble official got to go!” Guan Minjun immediately sprung up. After bowing towards Zhang Tie, she turned around and was going to leave as if she was escaping away from a trouble-maker.

“Previously, I had some business that could help Earth-Treasures Department make hundreds of thousands of element crystals in a short period of time. Now that President Guan doesn’t want to make it, this plan has to abort…”

Zhang Tie felt pitiful when Guan Minjun was about to leave the threshold of the gate of Yangxin Palace.

As was imagined, Guan Minjun stopped at a stroke. Closely after that, she turned back as if nothing had happened. She returned to her seat and said as calmly as usual, “I’ve just remembered that some element crystals have not been budgeted in Earth-Treasures Department yet!”

Zhang Tie said with a smile, “President Guan, you don’t have to be reluctant!”

Guan Minjun replied with a solemn look, “It’s Earth-Treasures Department’s responsibility to help Your Majesty get over the difficulty!”

“That’s great! I will dispatch this task to Earth-Treasures Department then. Earth-Treasures Department will be responsible for allocating the corresponding element crystals and crystal coins!” Zhang Tie said as he raised his arm, sending a piece of paper flying off Zhang Tie’s desk and falling on the table in front of Guan Minjun.

Zhang Tie just casually used his battle qi to make it come true; instead of using his ability as a divine dominator.

Guan Minjun then took the piece of paper and started to read it seriously.

It was a sketch of a building that Zhang Tie had just drawn. Being similar to that of the Forbidden City, this one contained fewer drawings than the original look of the Forbidden City.

There was nothing special about the contour of this building. As the president of Earth-Treasures Department, of course, Guan Minjun was not surprised at its contour. What made her eyes wide was the internal design of the building.

The building contained over 20,000 square meters in size. However, the ground over 20,000 square meters was paved with brilliant beautiful patterns composed of element crystals. However, they looked so luxurious that they made her feel guilty.

If Zhang Tie didn’t mark those things as element crystals, Guan Minjun might have thought that those beautiful patterns were made of something else.

Guan Minjun turned around at a stroke as she watched Zhang Tie with a bit anger, disappointment and grief, tightly pursing her lips——Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is going to run out of element crystals; however, you’re still indulged in extravagance. Do you want me to die?

Zhang Tie got a lot of information from her eyes. However, he didn’t mean to explain anything about that; because it was a commercial means that was adopted in the world where he came from——if you want others to spend a large sum of money on your commodities, you should pretend that you’re rich in advance. Only in this way could the others pay you fast. It was involved in people’s subtle mentality…

‘All I have to do is popularize Dragon Emperor’s Medicament. By then, this woman would know…’

“The more luxurious the building in the sketch is and the earlier it is completed, at least before next January 1st, the better. You could take it away and negotiate with the people in Heavenly Craftsmen Department. You could build it inside or outside Dragon Emperor City. I only have one sentence for you——no matter how many crystal coins and element crystals will Earth-Treasures Department pay for this building, as you know, I promise you 5 times’ return in 1 year after its completion…”

“5 times’ return,” Guan Minjun asked while gritting her teeth, “Do you really mean it, Your Majesty?”

“I do!”

“What if you couldn’t pay it off?” Guan Minjun asked.

“I will marry you…”

“You…Your Majesty…”

“Ahem…ahem. I was just kidding. Take it easy, President Guan. I was just spicing up the atmosphere. If women always looked serious, they would easily turn old. Additionally, it’s not beneficial to your marriage!” Zhang Tie explained as he hurriedly restrained his smile at the sight of Guan Minjun’s red face, “As I’ve said, President Guan should believe me. If you don’t, you could put down the sketch and leave here as per your will!”

Guan Minjun gazed at Zhang Tie for a few seconds silently before taking the sketch, standing up and leaving there.

‘F*ck, this woman is really special. How could she not even bid farewell to me? I’m Dragon Emperor. Does she treat all the men who couldn’t make money to raise his family in this way?’

Zhang Tie thought helplessly.

…

Outside Yangxin Palace, the moment she felt leaving the sight of Zhang Tie, President Guan had blushed. She touched her face as she felt hot. Closely after that, she paced up while her heart pounded…

…

Soon after Guan Minjun left, Hong Yukun had arrived.

Compared to Guan Minjun who looked bad and flurried, Hong Yukun the former internal guards head of Dragon Emperor Pavilion felt wronged like an angry young girl…

After Zhang Tie moved to the Forbidden City from Dragon Emperor Pavilion, Hong Yukun thought that he was destined to be the general manager of the Forbidden City. However, His Majesty directly relieved his post and assigned him to the woods to fiddle with vials, bottles and jars.

Over these days, Hong Yukun felt being a rural farmer who sold pickled vegetables; instead of being an immortal general. He couldn’t describe how disappointed he was…

“Your Majesty…” Hong Yukun shouted with grief when he saw Zhang Tie…
