Chapter 1602: Opportunity
"Lai...... Default? ”
I looked confused and weak.
No matter how Master Dewey said it, he was also the No. 1 wealthy businessman in the Zephyr Continent, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as 'rich and rival country', he is such a person, how can he teach me to 'repay my debts'?
Perhaps my tone was too shocked, and Master Dewey said, "Why are you so surprised, is it possible that in your kid's heart, a rich businessman can't be allowed to repay his debts?" ”
"It's not," I muttered, "just a little surprised." ”
"What's so surprising about this" Master Dewey smiled: "Even if I am rich and powerful, I still can't get rid of the identity of a businessman, and as long as I am a businessman, there will definitely be behaviors such as credit and debt, this is the rule between businessmen, it seems that you kid still has a lot of places to learn." ”
I laughed awkwardly.
Master Dewey continued: "If you take care of today's matter, it is estimated that the details of this ancient text will not need to be sent out as a bargaining chip. ”
I paused and asked, "Could it be...... Because of credit? ”
"Yes, think about it, as the grandson-in-law of the Fairy Empress, and a junior, will she still brazenly ask you for the details of the ancient text?" Master Dewey chuckled and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid that even her granddaughter won't be able to see her at that time." ”
After listening to Master Dewey's words, I am glad that I didn't take it all in, this is to ask me to push out my fiancée and unite against her own grandmother, I can't do this.
We still can't learn the thinking ideas and rules of this businessman, even if we learn it, we may not be able to do it.
I think it's safest for me to continue to take the adventurer route and live a leisurely life.
I didn't reveal the night talk with Master Dewey to the fairy queen, one is my stepfather, and the other is my fiancée's grandmother, neither side is easy to offend, and it is not easy to get too close, so it is better to leave some distance as much as possible, and it is good to deal around.
The scientific research team sent by Master Dewey arrived at the Moonlight City airship base at eight o'clock in the morning of the third day.
I picked up the plane myself.
After greeting me from the goblin researchers and the dwarven guards who accompanied me, they followed me to the Moonlight City restaurant for breakfast, and then marched into the palace.
When meeting the two empresses, the goblins all knelt on one knee, which is the most basic etiquette for foreign envoys, and as for several dwarven guards, they only bowed slightly to show respect.
The two empresses didn't care, but several elders were a little dissatisfied, especially Elder Lindsay, who was the most sharp-tongued and fierce-tongued, sneering at the guards: "Since you have come to my Moonlight City, you naturally have to abide by the rules of my Moonlight City, as a civilian, why don't you kneel down on one knee and bow to the two most respected empresses in Moonlight City?" I heard that when you first got off the airship, you knelt down and bowed to Elder An Xiaoyi, could it be that this Elder An Xiaoyi's identity is more noble than the two supreme empresses? ”
This may sound like a sign that the dwarves don't understand the rules, but in fact, they are trying to sow discord between the two empresses and me, and it is quite like they want to put a big hat on me.
I glanced at Elder Lindsay, and said lightly: "What Elder Lindsay said is a little too much, and the management is a little wider, all the dwarven goblins present are friends with me, they are all my friends, they have a close relationship with each other, what does it matter if they are joking, and bow down to each other, it is a private occasion, and it is not in such a solemn auditorium, besides, how can you be sure that the dwarven goblin friends are kneeling must be me, maybe someone kneeling behind me, for example, my fiancée, Princess Aurora." ”
When it comes to Princess Aurora, the topic is completely blocked by me.
Why not, if a courtier bows down to the princess?
Elder Lindsay frowned and didn't say anything more, but I felt a hint of gloom on her heavily coated face.
Oh, you don't want me to be easy, I won't let you feel comfortable, come on, hurt each other, who is afraid of whom?
"Now that we are about to talk about important matters, the two elders should stop here."
The Elven Empress's voice was crisp and majestic.
I smiled and glanced at Elder Lindsay, who was staring at me, answered with a 'yes,' and retreated into the queue.
Elder Lindsay's face turned slightly cold, and she answered with a "yes" and retreated into the queue.
Just now, the elven empress spoke out to stop the two of us from continuing to argue, seemingly in order to maintain order in the hall, but in fact, it was Chi Guoguo who exposed her attitude.
After Elder Lindsay sneered, you didn't make a sound, what do you mean by Elder An Xiaoyi's words to stop and clean up the order?
Isn't this clearly biased towards Elder An Xiaoyi!
Although the other elders did not explain their words, they had already conveyed everything they wanted to say in their hearts during eye contact.
I don't think so.
Anyway, both empresses are biased towards me, what can you do?
Don't think that you can do whatever you want if you are strong, no matter how awesome you are, can you be more awesome than the power of the two empresses?
You have also seen that rebellion, whether it is a relative of the royal family or a noble gatekeeper, if you say that you will clean it up, you will clean it up, without taking into account the identity and status and even influence of the other party, just this courage and means, who of you would dare to prick the hair?
After that, the Elven Empress told the goblins that she hoped that they would cooperate in studying the ecology and geological structure of the island, but never mentioned the portal.
The goblins also knew that the two empresses and some elders were not on the right path, but it was difficult to put them aside, so they talked about it and talked about it, and talked about it useless to dispel their thoughts of getting involved in the island.
The atmosphere above the court hall became harmonious and harmonious for a while.
Not long after, the Elven Empress ordered the group to be sent to the hotel, and then said a few inconsequential words, and then dispersed.
This time to meet the foreign guests, the fairy queen always behaved lukewarm, and even did not say a word, and after everyone dispersed, the fairy queen got up, rubbed her temples, and said: "This Lindsay, is really bold, dare to use foreign guests as a weapon, test our bottom line of protecting you." ”
I walked over, hugged the fairy empress, and said, "But thanks to the empress's help, otherwise today, I'm afraid there will be another war of words." ”
"She can come forward to protect you, but my old woman is a little inconvenient" The fairy queen laughed: "Don't blame me, the reason why I didn't come forward is to leave them a chance." ”
"Oh?" I wondered, "What chance?" ”
The Fairy Empress smiled and walked forward, without saying a word.
On the side, the Elven Empress held the Elf Empress's other arm and said tentatively, "Could it be that Grandma is planning to make them submit to you?" ”
"Fei Ye, Fei Ye" A trace of indifference flashed in the Fairy Empress's eyes, and she said lightly: "I'm just giving them a chance to save their family and their own lives." ”
