"Moyin, that guy has been looking at your belly."
Mi Zhou said to Moyin who was instructing Firut and little Rem while eating snacks.
"Well, people's XP is free. Since I can accept it and she can abide by the agreement and not attack others, then I think it doesn't matter."
“Wow, but it still feels a little scary.”
Mi Zhou was crunching the biscuits.
"Well, I've been through too many battles. Thanks to my super-speed regeneration, the concept of being injured has gradually become blurred. I don't think it matters anymore."
Moyin shrugged.
"Won't it hurt?"
"It does hurt, but I've been bitten many times before because I fed blood to Chinatsu and the others, so my pain resistance is basically full, so it doesn't matter."
"By the way, you are so strong now, you should be able to block out the pain, right? Why don't you block it out? How about I help you?"
Mi Zhou asked curiously.
"Forget about that. Pain is also a signal that reflects the degree of damage to the body. It can let me know whether my body is injured and whether the opponent is dangerous to me. If I block the pain, it will make me feel more relaxed, but it may bring me the possibility of defeat."
“I want to keep my body in the best condition at all times.”
Moyin began to explain.
It was not difficult for him to block out the pain, but he did not intend to do so.
"You are really crazy... You are so strong."
Mi Zhou was speechless for a moment. She didn't know how to complain about Moyin.
"I can be even stronger..."
Moyin said confidently.
"By the way, King, who do you think you will choose? Emilia?"
Mi Zhou asked curiously.
"If you have any analytical ability, you wouldn't say that. If she wants to win the championship, she can only rely on the two of us to intervene militarily. This means that she has little competitiveness to win the championship. In addition, her supporter Roswaal is a two-faced person who hired assassins to kill her. It can be said that she is the worst candidate for the King's Choice, whose supporters are also traitors."
"Mi Zhou, I don't ask you to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University, but you still need to have the basic ability to judge things like this."
Moyin said helplessly that Mi Zhou's family was indeed overprotective, resulting in her not having much experience in society. In addition, Mi Zhou's mental ability could directly read other people's thoughts, which led to her personal reasoning ability being somewhat poor. It would seem better to train her as much as possible in the future.
"Should we intervene in the king's selection later? I feel like I'm going to lose the bet. Emilia seems to be holding on to something."
"Whatever. If you're interested in getting involved, we can go visit other king elects. To be honest, Emilia's personality really doesn't suit her to be king. If you're interested, we can even make you a king elect candidate."
Moyin suggested.
"If I become a king, I will have to deal with affairs from nine to five every day. If I don't deal with them, people will think I am a foolish king. I will be cursed. I am not well educated, so don't try to trick me into going to work. I won't be fooled!"
Mi Zhou Yi refused righteously. No matter what, life in the Moyin family was definitely more comfortable than being a queen. She would not be so idle as to teach the entire class by herself.
"I'm just saying that if you want to be the leader, we can help you get the position. If you don't want to be the leader, we can just support you from behind the scenes."
Moyin replied with a smile.
As they were talking, the actual combat training between Firut and little Rem had almost come to an end, and both of them collapsed on the ground, resting breathlessly.
"It's almost time to make lunch. What do you want to eat today?"
When Moyin stood up and prepared to cook, a lovely girl in a pure white dress and lavender hair came to Roswaal's mansion with a handsome young man with a sword.
"Excuse me, is Miss Emilia here?"
The purple-haired girl greeted politely, while the young man next to her acted like a guardian, guarding against the hunter Elsa.
"Oh, Emilia, she's out. What do you want with her?"
Moyin took over the topic smoothly.
"Well, I'm Anastasia Hexin, the president of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce and one of the candidates for the 42nd King election of the Lukenica Kingdom."
"This is my First Knight Julius Euclius. I came here because I heard that Miss Emilia has been buying a lot of black bread from our Chamber of Commerce's bakery for several days to help the poor. I also heard that there is a space magician working with her, so I wanted to discuss this matter with Miss Emilia. What is your name?"
Anastasia briefly introduced herself and then stated the purpose of her visit.
"My name is Moyin, and these are Mizhou, Erza, Ram, Rem, Frandelica, Betty, and Firut."
Moyin told Anastasia the names of his team members, then paused, and when Anastasia nodded in recognition of a few of them, he spoke again.
"Emilia probably won't be back until the evening. If you want to see her, it's better to come in the afternoon."
"Huhu, although the consultation with Miss Emilia is also very important, I am more interested in this Miss Mi Zhou. According to the report from my subordinates, it seems that this Miss Mi Zhou possesses spatial abilities."
Anastasia Hesin looked at Mi Zhou who was eating snacks with a smile. She came here just because Emilia was away.
"Huh? Are you interested in me? What do you want to do?"
Mi Zhou was stunned for a moment after suddenly becoming the target of the visitor. Then he stopped eating and asked curiously.
"In fact, space magic is a super high-level magic that is independent of conventional magic. For me as a businessman, this ability is a dream come true. If possible, I hope Miss Mi Zhou can come to my side. I will give you three times the salary of Miss Emilia. If you have any special requirements, I will do my best to meet your needs."
Anastasia Hexin didn't waste any time and went straight to the point of inviting Mi Zhou.
"Hey, so you want me to work for you?"
Mi Zhou picked up Moyin's iced Sprite and took a sip, then asked.
"How could that be? Asking you to do simple cargo transportation work is really a waste of your talent. I won't do anything that excessive. What I want is to join forces with you as a space magician and use you as my trump card. When I need your help, you can help me. I won't ask you to do something that is a waste of your talent, such as carrying black bread."
Anastasia Hesin replied with a smile.
For the Chamber of Commerce, Mi Zhou's spatial ability is simply a dream come true. She can transport a large amount of materials to other places by herself in a short period of time. This is an ability that every businessman wants to acquire, so she would personally go to Emilia to poach people.
When she heard from her subordinates today that Emilia did not bring the space magician with her from the bakery, she immediately brought her knights to Roswaal's mansion to poach people.
Her previous confusion was actually just her acting. At least she had someone investigate the information about Mi Zhou and Mo Yin in advance.
As for poaching, she was still very confident. After all, Emilia was just a candidate for the king's choice supported by the border noble Roswaal, while she, who owned the Hexin Chamber of Commerce, had her own power. In terms of the resources she could mobilize, she completely surpassed Emilia.
At the same time, as a businessman, she has accumulated more wealth than the Roswaal family, so she can offer Mi Zhou a higher price.
Secondly, Mi Zhou did not act with Emilia today. This to a certain extent shows that Mi Zhou might have some conflict with Emilia. Now is obviously the most appropriate time to poach her.
As a business person, she is very perceptive about this kind of thing.
In fact, her guess was not completely wrong. Mi Zhou stayed in Roswaal's mansion today and did not act with Emilia. He really wanted to let Emilia know that without her and Moyin's help, it would be a very difficult task to help the people in the slums.
After all, she made a bet with Moyin.
On the other hand, she also wanted to see Emilia's reaction. If Emilia was dissatisfied with the fact that she did not go to help, it would prove that she was not worthy of continued help. After all, she and Moyin did not receive any wages from Emilia. They just helped her out. If Emilia took this for granted, she would not hesitate to drag Moyin, Betty Ramrem, and Firut away from Roswaal Mansion.
However, Emilia didn't show any dissatisfaction before she left this morning, so she felt that Emilia was still a person she could get along with.
"Hmm, that sounds good."
In response to Anastasia's invitation, Mi Zhou spoke.
"Then... are you willing to come to our side? I will negotiate your relocation with Miss Emilia and provide her with black bread at a lower price for a long time to help the slums. I believe she will not hinder your relocation."
Anastasia looked at Mi Zhou expectantly.
This move killed three birds with one stone for her.
First of all, lowering the selling price of black bread is not a big deal for her large chamber of commerce. It can also repair the damaged relationship with Emilia due to poaching. It can be regarded as compensation from the King's Choice camp she represents to Emilia's camp.
Secondly, she would use the lowering of the selling price to give the people in the slums the illusion that she had not forgotten her roots and that she was helping them together with Emilia.
After all, she was an orphan who worked hard to climb out of the slums... Although she had absolutely no good feelings towards the people in the slums. After all, she was almost captured as a slave there before, and the time she spent in the slums was almost the darkest time in her life.
Having said that, she still needs to do some face-saving work. Although people in the slums do not have the right to vote, more kindness is always good for future development. In this matter, she can use Emilia's influence in the slums to increase her own influence to a certain extent.
Finally, her behavior can also give Mi Zhou the illusion that she is a kind person, and will compensate for anything that has been done, in order to increase Mi Zhou's favorability towards her.
"But, to be honest, Moyin and I are not working for Emilia, and we are not short of money."
Mi Zhou picked up the biscuit and started eating again. This Anastasia actually wanted her, a god, to go out to work. This was not acceptable.
Although Anastasia talked a lot of nonsense, if she followed Moyin, she would be supported by Moyin for the rest of her life even if she did nothing, so she naturally would not work for Anastasia.
"Then why are you willing to assist Miss Emilia?"
Anastasia was stunned for a moment. She couldn't understand why Mi Zhou would reject her proposal. After all, she had offered a better plan than Emilia in terms of timing and treatment. Logically, Mi Zhou had no reason to reject her.
But in just a moment, she perfectly concealed her hesitation, which is her excellence as a top businessman.
"Well, let me think about it. It's probably interesting, right? Moyin and I both want to see the end of an absolute idealist, and how far a good-natured person like her can go. It can be roughly understood as a social observation experiment."
"Of course she's a very nice person, and we both have a good impression of her, so if she's in any danger, Moyin and I will help her, that's about it."
Mi Zhou tilted his head and thought for a moment, then gave a reply.
"Social observation..."
Anastasia was almost stunned by Mi Zhou's words. She actually went to observe the life of a candidate for the king's election. Did this space magician really know what she was talking about? This person was too arrogant...
However, Mi Zhou's arrogance is not important to her. What is important is how to make Mi Zhou work for her.
After all, if she, as a merchant, could ascend to the throne, all the wealth of the Kingdom of Luknica would be hers.
Because of her poor childhood in the slums, she developed a greedy character.
Mi Zhou's spatial ability is actually of great help to her ascending to the throne, so she must do everything she can to defeat Mi Zhou.
"Ah, you think I'm arrogant."
Mi Zhou said this with a smile, and Anastasia suddenly felt a chill in her heart. As a top-notch and outstanding businessman, she naturally wore the mask she used for negotiations very well. Mi Zhou was the first person who could see through her disguise at a glance.
But now that Mi Zhou has seen through it, there is no need to hide it too much. It is better to admit it openly. Perhaps Mi Zhou will forgive me for my frankness.
So Anastasia did not hide it, but put on a perfect smile again.
Chapter 1066: Negotiations between the Genius Merchant and the Mind Reader
"After all, there are only a few candidates for the kingship in the entire kingdom. The person you want to observe may very well be the future king of Lukenica Kingdom. This is somewhat inappropriate."
"Ahahaha, but everyone can do social observation, right? I didn't look down on Emilia when I observed her. On the contrary, I admired her character very much. She chose an extremely difficult path, so I'm just curious about her future."
"Of course, if she gets into any trouble in the end, Moyin and I won't stand idly by. This can be considered as compensation for her as a subject of social experiment observation."
Mi Zhou started talking.
