I'll Come Clean! I Am The King Of Lolan!

Chapter 127: The Imperial Court’s Negligence!

When Kyle heard Lorne’s words, he was at a loss and dumbfounded.

What was all this about? He knew that as the King of Lolan, Kyle had even personally met the group of Fusang envoys.

Kyle had agreed and abided by the request of the Fusang people to learn Lolan’s advanced knowledge, culture, and technology.

It was not because of anything else, but because Fusang was a vassal state of Lolan, and it had always been well-behaved.

Moreover, they only requested to learn from Lolan, and they did not need Lolan to give them anything. Moreover, the Lolan dynasty also needed to use Fusang as an example to show that they were close to the surrounding small countries.

Moreover, Lolan was a wealthy country, and Fusang was a poor country. allowing them to learn was considered giving them alms, so Kyle did not refuse the offer.

After being at a loss for a while, Kyle sat down on the chair and picked up something from Lorne’s breakfast to eat.

While eating, Kyle asked, “Lorne, I know about this group of Fusang people you mentioned. I’ve seen them asking for prices in the east market before.

“They seem to have some shrewdness in them. They’re not as st*pid and rich as you said.”

Lorne clapped his hands in excitement when he saw that Kyle was not particularly anxious and carefree about it. He said in a very hurried tone.

“I say, you’ve been dealing with me for the past few months. Yet you’re still this dense, why?

“The reason why those Fusang people are shrewd is that the merchants in the eastern and western markets did not take out what they wanted, and there was no culture or technology that attracted them.

“But it’s different here. With my wits and these methods, these Fusang people are still under my control.

“Let’s not talk about other things. During the days when you did not come to the tavern, I have a clear understanding of what they like, what they are willing to give up, and what they are willing to spend money on.

“Do as I say. Prepare some things that look like antiques and wrap them up for me. I guarantee that they will buy them for more than a hundred times the price. These Fusang people like to meddle in these types of businesses, so they’ll quickly believe anything you give them.”

When Kyle saw Lorne’s slightly excited look, he was stunned at first, but then he realized something.

It seemed that when Lorne said that the Fusang people were st*pid and had a lot of money, he was referring to the antique forgery industry.

Not bad for a tavern owner. It was very in line with the style of how Lorne ran things. He did not hesitate to deceive people.

It seemed that during the time that he had not come to the tavern, Lorne had earned a lot of wealth because of this. Perhaps before the refined salt was sold, Lorne would have to get rich first.

When he thought of the group of envoys who had come to Lolan to study culture, knowledge, and technology — who had been scammed by Lorne and had even lost a lot of their money — Kyle silently mourned for them for a few seconds in his heart.

However, even if he thought that way, Kyle would not really have much sympathy for the Fusang people. After all, they were just a group of foreign barbarians. They could only blame their bad luck for being scammed by Lorne.

Although Kyle thought so, he would not really go and trick the Fusang people with fake antiques like Lorne.

The most important reason was because they knew of his identity. He was the King of Lolan and the ruler of the world.

Fusang was Lolan’s subordinate country. As the greater empire, it did not seem good for Lolan to cheat their own underlings.

After all, Fusang was still relatively obedient and much more well-behaved than the three countries of Liaodong.

The other reason was that there was not enough profit from this scamming business. Even if he could scam all the money that the envoy of Fusang carried, it was nothing to a king.

This was not like the business of refining refined salt. It was a slow flow of cash that could always produce a large amount of profit. Therefore, Kyle was not interested.

After he thought it through, he scratched his head.

Then he said to Lorne, “Lorne, I think it’s better to forget about it. I’m not as eloquent as you. No matter how st*pid those Fusang people are, they probably won’t believe it after being fooled a few times. Even if it’s more than a hundred times the harvest, it’s not a long-term solution. So I’d better get down to business in the salt industry so that I don’t get into trouble.”

Lorne immediately fell into deep thought. Kyle’s words were quite reasonable.

He was only concerned about telling his friend about this money-picking business just now, but he had neglected other objective conditions.

Kyle was not as good at lying as compared to Lorne. Under the premise that Lorne was not here, Inagumi and the others might not have been fooled.

Moreover, Lorne had already done so many business deals with the Fusang people. The capacity of the Fusang envoys was at its max. If Kyle joined in, he probably would not make much money.

Thinking of this, Lorne spread his hands helplessly and said with some regret, “That’s a pity. I was thinking of helping you gain some benefits. After all, these Fusang people are loaded.

“If we miss this opportunity, the next time they send envoys, there won’t be such a good thing to ever happen again.”

Kyle smiled and wiped his hands clean, then cupped his hands to Lorne.

“Lorne, it’s rare for you to think of me when you have benefits. This is enough for me to feel satisfied. As for obtaining benefits from the Fusang people, it’s fine if you don’t have them. It’s not a big deal.”

Lorne nodded and then sighed.

“You’re right. It’s just a small matter for us to obtain some benefits. It’s a pity that the imperial court isn’t interested in the truly great benefits.

“If I were an official in charge of the imperial court, I would be able to directly get a good hand of cards by taking advantage of the good opportunity with Fusang.”

Kyle was momentarily stunned. He did not understand what it meant to get a good hand of cards, but this did not prevent him from understanding this sentence.

Great benefits?

Could it be that the imperial court had overlooked some important information and skipped over the things that were right in front of them? From what he heard from Lorne, it should be related to the fact that Fusang sent envoys to Lolan, could it be that this was also an opportunity that could be utilized to gain an upper advantage for Lolan?

However, did a small country like Fusang really have something that was worth Lolan’s time? For a moment, Kyle did not have any leads.

Therefore, Kyle asked straightforwardly, “Lorne, what do you mean by benefits? Could it be that you’ve discovered something wrong with the imperial court when Fusang sent their envoys to Lolan?”

Lorne turned his body around and began to consume the breakfast the set out for himself.

“There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s just that the imperial court hasn’t seen the benefits, so the civil and military officials of the imperial court and the current King of Lolan aren’t interested.”
