The hollow metal orb is silvery-gray on the outside and grayish on the inside, about the size of Luna's two thumbs, with a lid cut out about a quarter of the way at one end, and a small hand-drilled hole at the top.

Overall, the exterior looks finely polished, but the ball walls are slightly thicker.

It was something Luna had wanted to make, but she just didn't expect to see the finished product so soon.

"Thorpe's craft is better than I thought!" said Luna, punching the small ball, which seemed to be a little fluttering, with some delight.

"He was a serious apprentice. Locke nodded, remembering that Thorpe had been chasing him all day looking for things to do since he had been informed by Luna that he didn't need to betray his hue.

"Then what's ......?" Luna put the ball aside and looked at Locke with some puzzlement, although it was hard to be a craftsman in this world, it was more stable than a mercenary, at least for Thorpe, who was alone with his father at that time.

"He said that he was disgusted with the heat all day long, and I saw that he was young at that time, and he was less qualitative. His Highness still has something he needs to improve, though. Locke said with a smile.

"If it's thinner, you don't have to polish it so finely, and there is nothing else, just make twenty or thirty first. Luna thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, I got it. Locke nodded in response, but didn't leave immediately, as if he had something else to say.

"Uncle Locke has anything to say. Luna looked at Locke, somewhat understanding.

"Today, I came here and saw a lot of people who were a little different, as if they were sick, and they were fluttering when they walked. I just wanted to ask Your Highness, is it because of the lack of salt, so ......"

Locke spoke with some difficulty, although he knew that there were some things that others could not control at all, but the civilians in the city were so innocent.

"Yes, this is just the beginning, if it takes a little longer, these people will not only lose their strength, but also have other diseases, and in serious cases, they will die. Luna looked at Locke and spoke lightly.

"Then ......" Locke opened his mouth, he actually wanted to persuade, but thinking of his position and the ground under his feet, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and only looked at Luna with some apprehension.

Even he didn't know what kind of answer he wanted from Luna.

"You don't have to think too much, although you can't eat salt, it will make people weak, but there is actually a small amount of salt in daily food, meat and vegetables, and it is not easy to develop to the point of a large area of dead people, and I am afraid that if you can't reach that point, someone will mess up first. ”

There was no superfluous emotion in Luna's words, and it even made Locke sound a little erratic, but I don't know why, it was clear that Luna was only a few years older than his daughter, but with Luna's words, his heart settled down for no reason.

"I was reckless. Locke hung his head slightly.

Taking in the apologies on Locke's face, Luna smiled and explained:

"Uncle doesn't have to be like this. You and I just stand at different angles. In the uncle's opinion, the people may be innocent, but in my opinion, they are the ones who support the Yu royal family.

In the matter of rescuing my uncle, I will only choose the fastest effective means, as for how many people of Yuguo will suffer, it has never been a question for me to consider. You didn't misunderstand me about anything. ”

"Your Highness......" Locke looked up at Luna violently when he heard this, not because of the cruelty in Luna's words, but at this moment, this little female who said such cruel words with a soft smile made him feel inexplicably distressed.

"Uncle wants to go back to see his wife and daughter sooner, doesn't he?" Luna shook her head.

She understood the emotions flowing from Locke's eyes, but she didn't feel that she needed to be distressed, to be able to get a second life, to have relatives who cared out her heart and lungs again, to be needed by her relatives, for her in this life, it was already a great luck in misfortune.

"yes......"

Locke sighed, and threw away the little pity in his head, leaving only what Luna wanted, took a bag of gold coins, and walked away quickly.

In the evening, Jon, who had coaxed Susie, ran back to give Luna the news he had compiled from the domesticated birds.

Looking at the news from inside the palace, Luna couldn't say that she wasn't surprised, but she wasn't surprised either.

After all, the Eagle King dragged Calumbo out of the quagmire, and carefully taught the existence for many years, although the purpose is not pure, but if Calembo really saw that the Eagle King was not good, he immediately beat the drum and opened again, then it made people feel cold!

It's just, will her message really be given in vain?

The salt merchants of Yuguo in the royal city, under the high pressure of the royal family, only supported for a month, and when it was summer, even they could no longer take out half a grain of salt, not that Yuguo had no salt, but that their goods were too far away from the salt lake, and they would be robbed by the people who were in chaos due to the lack of salt.

As a result, even the bitter lake salt could no longer be bought in the royal city, and seeing that the salt supply in the palace had become a problem, the Eagle King finally couldn't sit still, and sent people to look for it several times, wanting to summon Luna.

Luna, however, still claims to be ill, and during this time, she even spills out of people, buying a large number of expensive medicinal materials to prolong her life.

The Eagle King, who received the news, almost immediately, sent someone to send a cart of medicinal supplements, whether it was a finished product or a simple medicinal ingredient, Luna accepted all the orders, but still refused to show up.

It can be said that in a short period of time, the five crown princes, who were originally as quiet as chickens for fear of getting rotten, all went to the official post to brush up on their sense of existence.

Luna, on the other hand, is in the spirit of not changing the attitude, and receives gifts softly, but no one is seen.

Of course, Luna still has to pay attention to the basic etiquette, and when people give gifts, she always wants to return the gift, but this gift is a little intriguing.

Except for the second crown prince, who harvested a small packet full of salted dried insect jerky, everyone else harvested a small bag of table salt, including the Eagle King.

Only the Eagle King gave the most and thickest gifts, and naturally harvested a lot, and when the cart of tonic herbs was sprinkled, a full sack of salt was harvested.

Looking at the whole sack of salt brought back by the ceremonial officer, the Eagle King directly smashed out the bowl of medicine that he had just drunk in his hand.

"Third brother, what do you mean by her?" The fourth crown prince immediately found the third crown prince after seeing the small bag of salt that was enough for everyone in her mansion to eat for a whole day.

"It's not like the fourth sister. There was also a bag of salt on the small table in the hands of the third crown prince, and when he looked at the fourth crown prince, his eyes flashed with an unknown meaning.
