Chapter 399: Breaking Wealth
"I'm sorry, Mérieux, for causing you so much trouble. Liu Li smiled awkwardly. I don't know whether to say that the goblin has a bottom line, or if it is more appropriate to say that she has a hole in her brain to make such a big mess, but the emperor has never let his figure appear in front of any stranger, but the laughter like a wind chime is coming to everyone's ears. If Liu Li was not responsible, it would not be impossible to completely remove herself from this matter.
"Hehe, don't care, the teacher said more than once when he was stationed here that this house should be renovated, but due to the shortage of funds in the guild, he was unwilling to pay for it himself and failed to leave the company, and you can make up for his regrets. Mériette's smile was gentle, giving Liu Li a feeling of spring breeze, but his next sentence revealed his sinister intentions, "Of course, the compensation is indispensable! A total of 1,370,000 gold coins, including the repair cost of the dungeon defense circle node and the reconstruction cost of the mercenary guild building. I've wiped the odds and turns of damaged table and chair decorations for you, and that's all left...... When are you going to pay it off?"
“...... Uncle Mérieux, we are acquaintances, and I will pay the money, but you tell me honestly...... How much you can get out of it. Looking at the familiar spellcaster in front of him, his eyes lit up, completely ignoring the image, Liu Li couldn't guess the cattiness.
"Ahem, Mingren doesn't say secret words, I have been following the teacher for so long, and my formation learning level has also improved a lot, and I am responsible for the reconstruction of the nodes of the dungeon defense formation this time. Mérietre also felt that her performance was too obvious, and stretched out her five fingers a little embarrassed, "I can probably get this number, and it's thanks to you." ”
"Huh...... Otherwise, how about I help you repair the circle nodes, I think my formation skills are a little higher than yours. Hearing this, Liu Li was so angry that he couldn't get angry, and his words were simply clenched back molars, "I used to think that you were a good person, uncle, so you took money out of my pocket!"
"No, no, no, the teacher values you so much, usually your task must be very heavy, how can you have time to be busy with such a trivial matter as tinkering with the magic circle, so don't worry about leaving it to me, aha...... Aha!" Feeling Liu Li's resentment, Mérietre was also panicked, for fear that the young man opposite would ruthlessly disrupt his business. Among the spellcasters in Casfield City, apart from Wells, who has already left office, Mériet is the one who knows Liu Li's strength best, at least in terms of formation legal attainments, which is enough to make him ashamed. If the high-ranking mages stationed at the station knew, maybe the cooked duck would really fly away.
"Say, how much can you share with me, it's always good to recover some losses......" dragged Mérieux closer, Liu Li can still care about respecting the old and loving the young at this time, not to mention that the familiar uncle in front of him is not old at all.
Seeing the threat in Liu Li's eyes, Mérietre could only choose to surrender in the end, but he didn't let go of the matter of sharing the spoils, "Don't think about giving it to you, I reported it all in the Mage Association, and this is still Your Excellency Chrissy who sees that my recent research funds are insufficient to take care of me." At the most...... At most, the research results will be the first to be shared with you, and your name will also be reported when it is reported to the Imperial Mage Guild...... If you are not satisfied, the naming rights of the research results are also handed over to you. ”
"Research, what research, and research signatures are not a joke!" Liu Li was shocked when he saw Mérietre say the bargaining chips in exchange with a pained expression. The caster's research results must not be deceived in the slightest, otherwise no matter how strong they are, they will be pursued by spellcasters all over the world. He believed that Mérieux would not have been unaware of this, and that he could not understand why he would say such sensitive words as "attribution" and "naming rights". The location of the two of them now is in the square in front of the original mercenary guild, but if any guy with good ears hears Merriette's words and reports it to the resident mage, it will cause a lot of trouble to this uncle.
"You, what do you think of me!?" Seeing Liu Li's attitude, Mérietre was angry, "Don't you know what research I've done for so many years? ”
"Wait! You haven't given up yet!? And depending on what you mean, you're about to bear fruit!?" As the "victim" of Mériette's whim, Liu Li suffered a lot in his various experimental projects, and in the two years he lived in Casfield City, he bleed a few pounds alone.
"Thanks to the elemental crystal you sent earlier, there has finally been some progress. Mérietre smiled proudly, what he was studying was Liu Li's "all-line affinity" talent, "Of course, you can't cast spells in defiance of elemental opposition like you, but it has become possible to touch the enemy elemental realm." ”
"Hehe, but the money is mine!" Liu Li has not forgotten his original intention, although he usually needs to spend money in a few places, but the price of 1.37 million gold coins still makes him feel painful.
......
Seeing that Liu Li and Mérietre were in harmony on the surface, but in fact they were secretly exacting, Heng Ye, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but laugh, and lightly tapped his finger on the forehead of the big goblin who knew that he had made a mistake and didn't dare to go back to the companion, "You know it's wrong, don't touch the wine next time." ”
"Yes...... But the dizziness feels so comfortable!And it's really delicious!Hiccup~" The big goblin has not completely come out of the drunken state, and shakes his head while burping.
Hearing the words of the big goblin, Liu Li, who was always paying attention to this side, suddenly became angry. He was worried that the alcohol would cause damage to the goblin's health, but at this time, seeing that she not only had nothing to do, but even had the intention of drinking some more, he no longer avoided Mérieux at the moment, and rushed to the elf, grabbed the goblin who wanted to dodge in his hand, pinched her cheek and pulled it to both sides, while shouting: "Don't drink! You won't drink anymore! Do you hear that!?"
"Oh...... All right. The only thing that made Liu Li feel relieved was that this goblin was obedient, at least easier to communicate with than the smaller ones in the Elven Forest.
Liu ...... Liu Li, this ...... What is this!?" Mérietre hadn't seen a goblin, but she had never known that there was such a big individual in this race, "Is this a goblin? What did you feed her, and how did she grow so big?"
"Uh, this...... It's a long story. ”
......
Liu Li didn't know at this time, Lisi, who stayed in the "Origin Realm", looked at the ancient tree of life waving its branches like a convulsion in front of her, and muttered: "Oh my God! How long has it been since I went back, what happened!?"
