Before Gu Chaoyan said those words, the King had not expected that Gu Chaoyan would contribute to the national storage like the Imperial Master. After all, Gu Chaoyan did not need his shelter like the Imperial Master. However, before he received the ultimate answer, he had thought that he might be reputable enough to make her change her mind. Therefore, he felt slightly greedy inside his heart.
However, when Gu Chaoyan put forward her intention straightforwardly, the King felt slightly displeased.
Despite his displeasure, he was not going to say anything straightforwardly. After all, she was the owner of the Luo's, and there had never been any rules among the four countries that civilians should not start a business transnationally. Actually, the trading between the four countries had been very frequent.
It would be totally reasonable, if she intended to keep the Luo's, but if she intended to close it, it would be a huge loss for him.
