Lu Chen wasn’t sure whether it was his own misperception, he always felt that Xuanyuan Yunqi was not unaware of etiquette.
After all, her loyalty to him was one hundred, which signified full loyalty.
Even if she lacked etiquette, she should know to at least greet him, especially since he had entered her line of sight.
Wait a moment…
A sudden thought struck Lu Chen.
Typically, when he checked a woman’s personal information, her interface would be as follows:
[Name:]
[Status:]
[Rating:]
[Favorability:]
However, Xuanyuan Yunqi’s personal information included an additional “Loyalty,” which was only found in the data of subordinates.
Her profile displayed the following:
[Name:]
[Status:]
[Rating:]
[Loyalty:]
[Favorability:]
Xuanyuan Yunqi’s loyalty to Lu Chen was too, but her favorability was only 50, which he found somewhat off.
In his past understanding, a woman’s favorability towards him was also a reflection of her loyalty. A one-hundred favorability meant one-hundred loyalty; that was how Lu Chen understood it.
But now, an anomaly like Xuanyuan Yunqi had appeared.
With a loyalty of 100 and a favorability of only 50, what did this mean?
Lu Chen immediately queried the system in his mind, “System, why does Xuanyuan Yunqi show both favorability and loyalty? Shouldn’t these two be unified?”
[For ordinary women, favorability and loyalty are unified. However, as Xuanyuan Yunqi is a character summoned by the system, summoned characters have one hundred percent loyalty to the host, but this does not mean they have a special liking for the host.]
Upon hearing the system’s explanation, Lu Chen quickly understood that favorability and loyalty were not unified in women summoned by the system.
So did this mean that if he wanted Xuanyuan Yunqi to be his woman, he couldn’t just look at her loyalty but also find a way to increase her favorability towards him?
But if she was absolutely loyal to him, was there a necessity to increase her favorability? Xuanyuan Yunqi was, after all, his subordinate. Couldn’t he simply issue an order for her to become his woman? She would likely have no choice but to agree.
With this thought, Lu Chen quickly cast the notion aside, deciding against such a course of action. Other people might do it, but Xuanyuan Yunqi was his subordinate. How could he exploit such an unspoken rule? He was not one of those men who relished workplace exploitation.
Seeing Lu Chen looking somewhat troubled and silent, Xuanyuan Chen started to feel nervous. He quickly spoke up again, “Prince, I will immediately bring my younger sister back and have her apologize to you.”
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen looked as though he was about to chase after Xuanyuan Yunqi, but Lu Chen came back to his senses and coughed to interject, “That won’t be necessary, I was merely curious and asking casually.”
At that moment, Lu Chen showed a hint of a smile. He patted Xuanyuan Chen on the shoulder and continued, “General Xuanyuan, your younger sister has reached the Grandmaster Realm at only her twenties. Truly a woman who does not pale in comparison to men.”
Xuanyuan Chen was taken aback for a moment before saying, “Thank you for your praise, Prince.”
Lu Chen went on to say, “Next time I see your younger sister, I must truly seek her guidance on martial arts skills. I have the skill but lack the ability for actual combat.”
“Alt… this…” Xuanyuan Chen hesitated.
Was his prince truly planning on seeking martial arts guidance from his younger sister?
Why did he feel something seemed suspicious?
Although Xuanyuan Chen’s loyalty to Lu Chen was a full one hundred percent, he still had his own thoughts. He was now quite clear about what kind of person the North Prince was, and he had the impression that the North Prince harbored other intentions towards his younger sister.
Nonetheless, as his sovereign, Xuanyuan Chen didn’t feel it was his place to say anything.
Lu Chen then turned to say, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Mo Fei and the others have traveled from afar, and they must be weary. Let’s arrange for them to have a place to rest and recover for a few days.”
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Mo Fei immediately replied, “Thank you for your concern, Prince!”
Lu Chen did not say anything further and proceeded to take the craftsmen to the accommodations that had been prepared for them in advance.
Fortunately, Lu Chen had asked Qin Yushan to prepare extra houses in anticipation that the craftsmen’s families might also come to North City, so having more houses was no harm done.
To his surprise, where he had only requested a thousand craftsmen, Mo Fei brought over two thousand to North City.
This should pose no significant problem for the production of cannons.
Lu Chen spent nearly a day in the craftsmen’s quarters, as he wanted to understand what they could do to better arrange their work.
Seeing how much care the Prince took for the craftsmen, Mo Fei and the others felt their favorability towards Lu Chen greatly increase.
Even though Great Yu City was relatively independent, they were quite informed about the outside world and aware of the situation in Great Sum.
They also knew that in Great Sum, craftsmen held little status, making Great Yu City, where everyone was a craftsman, a true anomaly.
In Great Sum, four words sufficed to describe the status of craftsmen: “ingenious but frivolous skills.”
In this era, most people believed advancements in tools were nothing more than clever tricks, unsuitable for serious consideration. Craftsman ranks were considered lowly, and few paid attention to this group.
