032: Baron Cailliaud's afterplay
"Phew!"
The exquisitely crafted stone carving was reduced to pieces under the palm of Cadia's hand, and he still couldn't vent his anger when he destroyed the stone carving, and he roared angrily: "Who the hell poured the ambitious leopard guts into Cayo's old bastard!
"Father!" Fred said calmly as he walked from behind a group of frightened men, "I'll go to Uncle Jer to discuss countermeasures."
Fred's Uncle Jell is the chief financial officer of Landnot, and he controls the finances and taxes, combined with the administrative power in Fred's hands and the military power he had before, it is precisely by relying on these three concentrations of power that he has accumulated the energy to resist the Herat family.

Kadia's eyes flickered for a moment, then she slowly calmed down and waved her hand: "This matter is over"
"What?" Fred couldn't believe his ears, and he hurriedly reminded, "Father, a thousand pairs of eyes are staring at me right now..."
"I know what you're trying to say," Cadia interrupted, "A moment of forbearance won't shake our prestige, now that we're on this warship, our interests are closely related, where can we go down so easily!"
After a pause, his eyes narrowed slightly: "As for Reeves, the clown who jumps off the beam... Since he wants to get in, I'll give him a chance!"
"Father, do you already have an idea?" Fred's eyes lit up
Kadia glanced at Fred, who had calmed down: "You also went to today's council, didn't you listen to what the old guy said after the meeting?"
"He..."
Fred frowned and recalled seriously for a while: "Cayo... Didn't he just announce that he would send that kid Kane to the Northern Orc Battlefield in four months? Oh! I see..."Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "As long as he reaches the Northern Battlefield, it will be in our hands!"
Cadia's face seemed to be a little relieved: "This son who has high hopes for Cailliard...", but at this point, his face became solemn again
"Father?"
"You think Cayo's old thing is really so stupid?" Cadiah asked rhetorically, "Don't you wonder why he postponed it until four months later?"
Fred thought seriously for a while, since he didn't have a clue, a little disappointment flashed in Kadia's eyes when he saw this: "My son, you still have a lot to learn" He patiently explained: "That old guy said it to me on purpose, it's a letter of nomination, but..."
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "It's just that this old fox's name is not only my name, but also the name of Na Ori, whoever wins will help him!"
After a pause, he touched his chin, his eyes flashed with doubt, and his voice was gloomy: "Pinching me and Ori are both worried about forcing him onto the other party's warship, so we have no fear? No matter who is behind the trick to Cayochi, since the beach is a pool of muddy water, it is not so easy to get out! I will let him vomit it all sooner or later!"
Valan Green Manor
"Father, how does it taste? I learned this pinecone pancake from Aunt Lily, the cook, and I need to hear your opinion, of course, don't say it's not delicious, and don't lie to me with good things."
Swallowing the greasy pancakes, Viscount Ori touched Suvia's hair dotingly, and said teasingly: "This pancake is not made for me to eat."
A shyness reflected Su Weiya's cheeks, and she said angrily: "I hate it, father, people just ask you if the pancakes are delicious, why are you rambling"
"As long as it's something my daughter makes, it's a unique delicacy in the world," Viscount Ori, who had been a guinea pig for a while, replied with a chuckle
"Father is really... Ignore you" Suvia pretended to be angry and turned around and walked towards the kitchen, and after a short time, she turned back and said, "There will be a honey cheese in a while, this time you are not allowed to coax me with good words."
"....this little girl isβ" Viscount Orey shook his head with a smile
"Is it really okay?" Carman next to him withdrew his gaze from the direction where Suvia had left, turned to Ori and asked, "Miss has changed recently, and you can judge the two of you."
The smile on Ori's face quickly faded, and he frowned and said suspiciously, "It's really incredible, she hated this marriage before... Forget it, when this matter is over, stay with her uncle in the provincial capital for a while, little girl, it's nothing fresh for a while."
After a pause, he straightened his colors and returned to his usual seriousness: "What matters now is Landnott, this Reeves family... It's really unexpected, is there any way to pull him down on our side completely?"
"It's difficult" Kaman looked embarrassed and shook his head: "He must also know that the greatest value of his big name is to hold it in his hand, and all aspects will definitely do it without leakage, we will do it rashly, we can't do it once and for all and make him hostile, and it will be worth the loss if we rush to Cadia's side."
"That's it..."Viscount Ori touched his chin, his voice brought some regret, he pondered for a moment, his expression was relaxed, and he said with a little smile: "Forget it, this is a good thing for us anyway, cut off one of its arms, this painful taste of Cardia is about to go crazy."
"It's just..."Speaking of this, Ori frowned, full of doubts, "I never thought that Cayo was a brave and scheming person, why suddenly..."
"This trick is definitely not from Cailliaud," Carman took over and affirmed: "If Cayo had this foresight, he wouldn't have been able to find a way out for his son."
After a pause, he looked at him with admiration, and said with the same doubt: "The timing is accurate, the means are ruthless and not dragging the mud and water, when did Landnoteri come to such a figure?"
Meanwhile, the Reeves family mansion
"Jingle Bell"
The crisp sound of wine glasses clashing echoed through the room, and Roch took a sip of grape wine and wiped the stain on his lips with a silk handkerchief: "I wonder if Lord Baron Cailliaud is still satisfied with my first gift this time?"
"I'm afraid there's nothing more to celebrate," Cailliaud said, putting his glass down, pausing, and then wondering, "But what about these four months?
Luo Xi smiled slightly: "You have a bargaining chip at this time, if the real Marshall family really has the upper hand in four months, then sending Kane to the military department at that time can not only rely on Marshall's family power to pave the way for Young Master Kane's future, but also avoid risks, why not do this?"
"Hehehe" Cayole smiled, patted Roshi's shoulder, shook his finger and said, "Roshi, you didn't tell me the truth"
It was not strange to be pierced by Roshi, he clinked his glass with Cailliaud again: "The flames of war have been ignited, and the dark army has been laid down, now wait for the moment when the horn sounds!"
"By the way" Putting down the wine glass, Roshi, who suddenly remembered something, followed and asked: "That squire doctor, it seems to be called Brown, right? Although the Marshall family has no reason to do anything to us at this time, we still have to deal with it as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I've already arranged for someone to send him and her daughter to the countryside, and if this happens, I believe no one will suspect him when he returns to his hometown," nodded and Baron Cailliaud said slowly.
"But..."After a pause, he looked at Roshi, and said, "I really didn't expect that you, who are planning big things, are surprisingly merciful."
"Unexpected kindness?" Roshi said in surprise
"Isn't it?" said Baron Cailliaud, "arranging for a prostitute to replace Brown's daughter, and ridiculous Drew and his straw bale son are dying without knowing the truth of the matter."
... Uh...
I'm just worried that in the face of the resistance of the chaste martyr, that overly drunk straw bale may not be able to do it... I didn't expect that other considerations would actually bring this image to Cailliaud, and after a little stunned, Roshi smiled, didn't deliberately explain, and picked up his wine glass and said:
"The Lord said, Kindness is one of the best qualities in the world"
