Chapter 591: 588, Trading with Lin ke_1
These cosmetics and trinkets were things Su Yu had casually bought while passing through a town on Skru Star.
Although they weren’t cheap, they were absolutely worth it if they could help him maintain a good relationship with Donna!
“Thank you, junior!” Donna was very satisfied with these gifts, the pearl powder and little accessories were of excellent quality, enough for her to use for a while.
Plus, she wasn’t the type to only receive gifts without giving anything in return.
Igniting Fire Dragon Bones seemed to be a colossal enterprise, and Liszt even doubted whether collecting all the Fire Dragon Magic Power from Black Horse Island would be sufficient to accomplish the ignition.
“I hope that with the help of the Smoke Mission, it can be lit as much as possible!”
However, the exploitation of Fire Dragon Magic Power had to be postponed, as he did not currently have enough serfs arranged for production. When construction on Black Horse Island began, there would undoubtedly come a significant labor shortage.
After one last look at the Fire Dragon Bones, Liszt returned to the port town.
Since he had to attend an ennoblement ceremony the day after tomorrow, he did not have time to stay on Black Horse Island any longer, and he needed to return to Fresh Flower Town tomorrow. That night in the port town, he convened a brief meeting.
“Measuring the island simply involves taking measurements around its perimeter, but the Court Envoy and Tulip Fort Envoy will definitely land on Black Horse Island and stay in the port town for a few days. Therefore, the secrecy must be well maintained. Consultant Goltai, how have you arranged this?” asked Liszt.
Lin Ke, dressed in a gold-trimmed white robe (which Donna said was a teacher’s uniform), walked out from the portal gracefully.
“Lin Ke, it’s been a while!” Su Yu quickly stood up from the chair by the vanity and greeted him with a smile.
Lin Ke first waved hello to his sister on the bed, then turned and calmly addressed Su Yu, “What can I do for you, Mr. Su Yu?”
“So here’s the thing,” Su Yu went straight to the point, ” I would like you to deliver some potions for me to Skru Star, to a designated person…(300 words omitted)….”
Su Yu laid out his entire plan.
After hearing Su Yu’s plan, Lin Ke slightly furrowed his brow.
After hesitating for a couple of seconds, he resolutely declined, “I’m very sorry, Mr. Su Yu, but I can’t do it. My sister must have told you, right? As a ‘War Inspector’, I must maintain absolute neutrality. I can’t show any favoritism in this war…”
“500 study points,” Su Yu calmly proposed without changing his facial expression.
“…” Lin Ke raised his eyebrows.
500 study points was not a small amount. His regular salary was just so much in a natural cycle. This number made him consider the offer.
But the thought of the consequences of doing as Su Yu asked made him quickly discard the idea.
Donna, lying on her bed, had no interest in their transaction. She had already drifted off to sleep with her pillow.
“So here’s the thing, Su Yu…” Lin Ke carefully considered his phrasing, hesitating a bit more.
Su Yu promptly continued, “How about 1000 study points? You must understand that Blue Star is at an absolute disadvantage, we need to seize every potential opportunity to win!”
“It’s not about the study points, even if you offered 2000 I wouldn’t risk it.” Lin Ke shook his head regretfully.
“Doing you this favor would breach the ‘hymn’ rules. Even I have to be careful to avoid the punishment from ‘hymn’, it’s too easy to cross that line, and the consequences of crossing are unimaginable!”
“Then how about this.” Seeing Lin Ke was about to refuse, Su Yu had no choice but to use his “trump card”.
He took the [Candied Hawthorn] from his necklace and handed it to Lin Ke, “I am offering this to you with hope that you might change your mind.”
([Candied Hawthorn (gold)]
Food
Increases satiety by +3 upon consumption
Special effect: [Sweet Gift] If you give this item to a creature, their liking for you will increase by 10 after they consume it, lasting for 24 hours.)
“What is this?” Lin Ke asked looking at the candied hawthorn.
“This is a snack special to the game world, it should suit your taste, give it a try now!” Su Yu laughingly forced the candied hawthorn into his hands.
Lin Ke wanted to refuse. His reason told him not to eat food of uncertain origin.
But once he smelled the candied hawthorn’s enticing aroma, Lin Ke’s reason disappeared.
Unable to control himself, he tore off the wrapping paper and tasted one.
Sour and sweet, indeed his favorite flavor!
And for some reason, Su Yu suddenly seemed much more likable.
“The taste of this food is really good!” Lin Ke squinted with satisfaction.
The more he ate, the better it tasted. The sweet and sour taste completely won over his taste buds, almost dissolving him!
When he finished one, he was still not satisfied, and quickly moved on to the next one.
While eating, he patted Su Yu on the shoulder and laughed, “Alright, I’ll make an exception for you this time! But Su Yu, you should get more of this food from the game, I’ll buy it from you at a high price!”
“Sure, sure!” Su Yu hurriedly agreed with a smile.
He didn’t expect Lin Ke to like candied hawthorns so much.
It looked like he would have to visit Tao Lili again in the game world just after entering.
Su Yu took out 3 bottles of [Grandmaster-level Life Recovery Potion] from his necklace and gave them to Lin Ke.

Meanwhile, a massive crowd filled the 400,000-square-meter central square of the capital of Beak Country on Skru Star.
Beaming smiles filled the faces of Beak City’s citizens flocking the square.
They looked avowedly up at their leader, Cindy Doppler, floating above in the sky.
Four days ago, their leader led the righteous ‘Anti Union Organization’ to end the civil war, crushing the ‘Beak Progressive Party’ that collaborated with a foreign power for the final victory.
Their leader was delivering a victory speech and naturally, the citizens were overjoyed.
Now the speech was reaching its climax. Looking at these people who supported her, Cindy Doppler solemnly solemnly promised,
” I, Cindy Doppler, on behalf of the ‘Anti Union Organization’, officially promise – for the next half-year we will do everything we can to prevent G2’s aggressive war against Blue Star. We oppose G2’s hegemonism! We oppose G2’s intervention in other nation’s domestic affairs! At the same time, we will impose wealth tax on the wealthy to improve the lives of ordinary citizens!”
Cindy Doppler has always been a woman of her word. After becoming the leader of the ‘Anti Union Organization’, she essentially fulfilled all her campaign promises, unlike other politicians who often say one thing during the campaign and do another once in power.
So when Cindy Doppler made the promise, thunderous applause filled the square.
Some people waved their arms, some made loudspeakers with their hands and shouted into the sky, “Long live Cindy Doppler!” “Long live the Anti-Union Organization!”
For a time, the atmosphere in the square reached its peak.
But suddenly, a bright blue teleportation portal opened not far from Cindy Doppler.
With a candied hawthorn stick in his mouth (he couldn’t bear to eat the last one) Lin Ke sauntered out of the teleportation portal.
What do you think?
