Chapter 45: You Didn't Protect My Mother
"This group of bitches raised it!"
In the car, Francis shouted hysterically.
"Father, why aren't you in a hurry at all?"
"Why rush .."
On the side, Francis's father was even in the mood to look at the scenery outside.
"These bitch things got stuck when the alchemy laboratory we built was about to be completed, and it was obvious that they wanted us to lose all our money, that kind of thing, without corresponding research, we can only keep burning money and throwing it away, it's a pity!"
"So, why do you think I should let the third princess come over to witness instead of going to the Ministry of Commerce to find someone to witness the contract?"
"You.."
Hearing his father say this, Francis immediately calmed down.
"The sky is very big, the earth is very big, but on the north shore of the Steam Lake, the biggest is the Caesar royal family, with the three princesses in front, this matter is not our turn to top, after all, the transaction was not initiated by us."
"It's like... That's it.."
"So, son, you really have to study more in the future, drink less with those bastards, your mother died early, I am a son like you, and this business will be passed on to you in the future."
"Uh... Father. ”
Francis grabbed her hair with a look of a big head.
"Don't you have an illegitimate child or something? With my character, I really can't manage this, so it's okay to go outside and run business."
"I.."
The old man raised his crutches, but after thinking about it, he put it down, silently telling himself in his heart that this is biological, this is biological...
"After today's affair is over, you will go and give birth to my grandchildren, and if you can't give birth, you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"Father, but I'm not going to have children."
“...”
"Father! Father! I'm kidding.."
Francis scratched his hair, looked at the steam car all the way away, and shrugged helplessly.
"Taxi! Go to the king.. Go to the Tomahawk Bar .."
His eyes rolled, and Francis suddenly changed his words, he felt that his father must not be joking, I am afraid that after today, he really won't have a chance to go out...
--- dividing line
"Father."
"I've seen the king .."
The main hall of the royal palace, under the crazy money, has been repaired and renewed, and it is not even obvious that there has been a fight here, and the three princesses and Fugui came to the main hall and bowed on one knee to the king on the throne.
"Father, do you have anything to do with me?"
Saying that, the third princess looked around, on one side were people from the tax department, and on the other side were several nobles, no more, no less, a total of four, all of them were very familiar, all of them were the four officials who jumped out of the logistics department that day to plagiarize the box lunch.
Not far from them is the patriarch of the lonely Francis family, Trent Francis.
"That's right."
Among the crowd in the Ministry of Revenue, a middle-aged man looked at King Caesar on the throne, and when he saw that he nodded slightly, he spoke.
"Your Royal Highness, we are the Commercial Investigation Department of the Ministry of Taxation, and yesterday, we received a complaint from an official of the Logistics Department that Your Excellency the copper coin is suspected of illegally transferring a commercial contract for cooperation with the military, but because you are a witness to this contract, we can only ask the king to come forward and make a ruling based on the evidence we have gathered, as well as the testimony of both parties."
"Illegal?"
Pandry glanced at the men.
"I did witness the contract, but there were no illegal clauses in it."
"King, Your Royal Highness the Princess, this is a cover-up."
"Did I shield your mother?"
"You didn't protect my mother, but you did protect him."
For the princess scolded herself, the aristocratic representative who stood up said that he was used to it, and it was not uncommon for this princess to scold people in the hall over the years, what kind of bitch raised, son of a bitch, etc., this time it is elegant, and the person is a princess, or one of the heirs to the throne, he naturally does not dare to say anything.
"Say."
"Yes, King."
The man bowed.
"The product of the lunch box was invented by Your Excellency Copper Coins, and he based on his own ability, on the basis of ensuring quality, achieved an ultra-low price of ten silver dollars a box, which is also the reason why he was able to get a large order from the front-line main combat troops.
The man's voice changed, and he said again.
"When he traded this contract, it was a loophole in the law, and the Francis family's lunch box also cost twenty-three silver dollars, especially after the king promulgated the new law, in order to respond to the call and improve the treatment of workers, the cost even rose to about forty silver dollars."
"At such a price, if the tender is re-tendered, the military will not necessarily choose their family. I mean, there is just as much competition as any other product in the market. ”
"If this kind of behavior is allowed, then, in the future, any bidding behavior, you can first find an extraordinary person, use his extraordinary ability, unlimited squeezing costs, wait until the bidding is successful, and then sell the contract, I think it is necessary to launch an investigation against this copper coin lord and the Francis family, whether they have planned it in advance, and this is trampling on the laws of the border kingdom!"
'Your uncle, this is trying to cut the grass and eradicate the roots..'
Above the main hall, Fugui constantly reads the thoughts of these people, and can be regarded as knowing their thoughts.
In short, they wanted to take this opportunity to bring down themselves and the Francis family once and for all.
The method is not difficult, these nobles are already in charge of the law, so it is enough to convict them if they buy the people of the tax department and interpret the terms of the law, and criticize him and the Francis family harshly.
In the final analysis, the legal provisions of this world are far from being as perfect as those on earth, and many of the provisions have vague boundaries and unclear division of responsibilities.
"Hmm.."
On the throne, King Caesar nodded slightly.
"That's very reasonable, Pendeli, you really haven't thought through this matter, and you really have to be cautious enough when it comes to the contract for military procurement, so, copper coins, do you have anything to say?"
"Yes."
Fugui raised his head and said respectfully.
"Oh? Let's talk about it.."
Caesar leaned on the throne, in fact, he was actually happy to know that these nobles wanted to join forces with this young man, with his understanding of this little guy, if he owed himself a favor, then it would be impossible to run out of the palm of his hand in this life.
After all, this is the first time this kind of thing has happened, and as long as you are willing, you can lift it high and fall down gently under the legal framework.
However, he didn't expect that this little guy was quite confident, which made him a little interested.
"Hmm... These gentlemen, I would like to ask. ”
Fugui turned around and looked at the men.
"You're suing me because it's determined that the Francis family can't supply the military at the same price, right?"
