Hearing the translator translate what Lu Ning said, Captain Ark couldn't help it.

"Five gold coins are such a small piece, why don't you grab it?"

Lu Ning pursed his lips and said.

"Of course, if you can afford to waste paper, you can do without it."

The relationship between a pencil and an eraser is like a key and a lock, or chopsticks and a bowl.

Besides, in the Hongmao country, paper is not a common thing, and many backward areas still write in sheepskin.

If it weren't for the ink and paper for this negotiation were provided by Daming, they would even want to write in sheepskin.

Princess Catherine and Lu Ning looked at each other angrily for a long time.

"Deal, five gold coins and an eraser, you also give me three thousand."

Lu Ning was really good at talking this time, and he prepared all the erasers.

The apprentices next to them thought to themselves: A profiteer is a profiteer, and the person who can take advantage of the master has not yet been born, and the original price is a gold coin for a pencil and a gold coin for an eraser.

As a result, you have to be greedy for a small bargain, you have to ask for free things, and instead of saving money, you waste 3,000 gold coins in vain.

It's your own greed, no wonder others, but Princess Catherine is not a lord who is willing to suffer.

"Little brother, how do you make this pencil and eraser? Can you tell your little sister a word? In the future, if we do the same, we will spread it to the world, so that the whole world will be inscribed with your name. ”

Lu Ning almost fried the pot when he heard it, what do you mean that the world is engraved with my name, and you are carving a tombstone here.

"I'm sorry, our Emperor Ming has just signed the "Patent Law", and if you want to make my technology, you must pay patent royalties. Failure to do so will result in hefty fines. ”

Princess Catherine's blue eyes widened again and asked.

"What is a patent?"

"The meaning of the patent is that if you want to use what I invented, you have to pay me a certain amount of technology transfer fees, and if you don't pay it, you will steal the technology, and you will face a huge fine at that time."

Princess Catherine said with a chuckle.

"Little brother, you're a bit of a boss, when we return to the Red-haired Country, even if we use your patent, how do you know? Aren't you going all the way to the red-haired country to punish us? ”

Lu Ning smiled and replied.

"I don't have this time myself, but didn't our Ming fleet arrive at the shores of your red-haired country? Do you want me to send them to convince them? ”

As soon as she heard the words of the Ming Fleet, Her Royal Highness the princess was inexplicable and trembled violently.

Later, I listened to what this guy said to convince people, and couldn't help but show a bright smile.

"I know that my little brother is a civilized person and will convince people with reason, and I like the person who convinces people with reason."

Hearing that Her Royal Highness the princess was ignorant and fearless, Captain Ark broke out in a cold sweat.

"Your Highness, we still have to pay royalties, and don't ask them to convince people."

"Isn't it good for everyone to be reasonable?"

Captain Ark was speechless for a while, and quietly explained to Her Royal Highness the princess in the red-haired language.

"There is such a powerful cannon on their ship, called the Ming Truth Cannon, his so-called persuasion of reason, is to use the Ming Truth Cannon to conquer others."

The navy of the Ming Dynasty and the navy of the Hongmao Kingdom have had naval battles more than once, and the fear of Daming firearms is deeply rooted in the bones of the Hongmao royal family.

"Tell me, how much royalties do we have to pay?"

Lu Ning smiled and said.

"Don't have a lot, 10 million gold coins a year, if you don't give it in any year, I will take back the right to use the patent, of course, if you don't have my warning, we have to convince people with reason!"

"You are a threat, this is a very unreliable behavior, I want to strongly protest!"

"Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away!"

Her Royal Highness the Princess, although she didn't bring enough gold coins with her, she brought precious spices and gave them to Lu Ning at a discount of one million gold coins at a discount on the market price.

"Little brother, the royalties for the pencils and erasers have already been given to you, can I ask Captain Jacques to ship these back?"

Who knew that Lu Ning stopped him again and said.

"This Captain Ark can't leave yet."

Princess Catherine was a little helpless, desperate to do it in Lu Ning's arms, but still twisted like a coquette.

"Little brother, you're too domineering, can't we go back if we want to?"

Lu Ning took the initiative to kiss the other party on the cheek.

"Princess, that's not what I said, if you want to pass through my Ming border, you still need to pay customs duties."

"What's that?"

"You must know that what you import is our new product here, even if you don't rely on it, our powerful navy of the Ming Dynasty can also be sold to the world. You have made all the profits we deserve, and you can't say anything if you don't pay us some taxes. ”

After paying the royalties and paying the full amount of customs duties to the Department of Domestic Products, Lu Ning finally agreed to bring them back to Hongmao Country with a complete set of pencils and erasers.

The princess was still a little reluctant to leave and said.

"Lord Wang's little sweetheart, people are leaving. When he returned, he told his father that he would come over immediately and negotiate the lease of Mag Island. You can't miss me too much. ”

Lu Ning hugged him gently, and then watched her leave in the airship.

At this time, Zhu Xiongying said to Lu Ning with a look of adoration.

"Master, you are really charming, not only a Ming woman, but even the red-haired beauties have a secret promise to you, can you teach your disciples to do both, and when you grow up, you can say that you are a good daughter-in-law."

Lu Ning said to him angrily.

"What do you want? Hugging and kissing are considered social etiquette to meet in the red-haired country, people just show their affection for me, and they don't want to marry me, and what kind of charm is unparalleled, you think you are gold and silver treasures. ”
