1932 There Is Really No Way?

The venue prepared by Rockcraft was in a vast reception hall.

The reception hall has been set up as a banquet scene, with a large ceremony table.

On the ceremony table, there were plates of dishes.

only…

"Sorry, please allow me to ask a question, Mr. Prime Minister."

Darkness frowned tightly, and her tone became sharper as she questioned.

"Why is the reception banquet prepared by your country so simple?"

That's right.

crude.

The banquet in front of me can only be described with such words.

no way.

Not only was the banquet venue rather crudely arranged, but even the plates of food on the ceremony table were nothing out of the ordinary, as long as you walked around the street, you could basically find them.

This kind of cuisine has nothing to do with the feasts specially used by the royal family and nobles to invite guests, not to mention luxurious, even precious.

Facing the envoy of a princess from a country, how could they hold such a crude banquet?

That was no different from an insult, no wonder Darkness had such a big reaction.

pity…

"No, no, you misunderstood."

Lovecraft hurriedly said such words in a somewhat artificial manner.

"We have no intention of fooling your country at all. It is because our current conditions are very limited, so we can only prepare a reception banquet of this level."

What Rockcraft said reminded everyone.

"Speaking of which, there was a mention of the country's financial difficulties."

Megumin's muttering sound brought Rockcraft a bitter expression.

"Yes, our country's current business is a bit sluggish. This is my fault as an internal affairs officer, so I can only wrong you to accommodate this simple reception banquet, and forgive us for not being able to come up with better things."

These words made everyone dumbfounded.

Fang Li also understood at once.

"Come here?"

This is simply a head start, right?

Using the banquet as an excuse to bring up the topic of "financial difficulties", Rockcraft just wanted to tell everyone that Elrod was so poor that he could only prepare for the banquet and could not afford more money.

Of course, the large amount of support funds that can be used to resist the Demon King's army cannot be used at all.

Lovecraft just wanted to express this point.

And Prince Livi and his retainers also expressed this one after another as if they felt helpless about this situation.

"No way, who made us so poor."

"Even the royal family and nobles can't do anything if they don't have money."

"We can only accommodate this kind of cuisine."

"It's pretty good if you can fill your stomach."

Such a statement, as if it had been prepared in advance, sounded extraordinarily hypocritical.

Until Fang Li spoke again.

"However, when we came here yesterday, people's lives were in a bustling scene when we went to the streets." Fang Li said pointedly: "Not to mention that the stores and stalls can gather a large number of tourists. The casino industry in Elode's country can only be described as prosperous, so it doesn't look like financial difficulties at all?"

"Yes... yes!" Alice also said hastily: "When I was in the hotel, I also heard that Elrod became more and more prosperous under the management of the Prime Minister, and I didn't hear that your country has financial difficulties. .”

Such a claim did not make Rockcraft panic.

"That's just a cover-up deliberately created for tourists to see." Rockcraft said calmly: "After all, if foreign people see that Elrod has become poor due to financial difficulties, then Not only will the number of tourists decrease one after another, but the words that spread will also affect the image of our country. We can no longer bear the loss, so we can only spend a lot of effort to create such a cover-up.

Foreign tourists still think that Elode is a big casino country in the past, maintaining a little weak operation. "

"Oh?" Fang Li glanced at Rockcraft and said with a smile, "Is that really the case?"

"Of course." Lockcraft pretended to be very modest and said: "If you don't believe me, I can show you the financial statistical records of recent years to prove that what I said is true."

That's the joke of the ski world.

Anyway, the financial statistical records must be forged, right?

"This is troublesome..."

"Ugh..."

Both Megumin and Darkness groaned as if they felt troubled.

"how so…"

Alice also looked extremely disappointed.

Only Fang Li clearly knew that all of this was acting, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Rockcraft became playful.

Immediately, Fang Li ignored Rockcraft, turned his head, and looked at Levi, who was completely watching a play.

"Does Your Highness mean the same?" Fang Li asked Li Wei abruptly: "Because your country is in financial difficulties, it is impossible to provide support funds, and even the future support funds will be suspended?"

"Oh?" Li Wei didn't seem to expect that Fang Li would turn to him suddenly, but he reacted immediately, and replied without hesitation: "Yes, our country has no ability to provide support funds, and it needs to be suspended before the financial recovery. There is no other way to provide support funds in the future.”

He said there was no way, but Levi's performance was so easy.

Compared to Rockcraft, this kid is really not good at acting.

"Also... Please think about it again!"

At this time, Alice stood up.

"If you lose your country's support funds, Belzegu's Kingdom Army will sooner or later be unable to resist the Demon King's Army due to insufficient funds. At that time, once our country is defeated, your country will also become the spoils of the Demon King's Army!" Alice He tried his best to say: "So, please think about it again!"

Faced with Alice's plea, Levi remained indifferent.

"If you say there is no way, then there is no way, no matter how much you beg, money will not fall from the sky." Levi said indifferently: "The easiest way to make money in this world is to gamble, or go to the casino too Let’s try and see if we can get the favor of Goddess Eris, maybe we can win enough support funds?”

The extremely irresponsible statement made Alice speechless.

"That's what happened." Rockcraft said hypocritically: "We really have no choice, otherwise we wouldn't ignore the threat of the Demon King Army. Please don't embarrass us anymore."

After being told by Lovecraft, Alice was in a mess.

Even Megumin and Darkness, who were fearless, showed helpless expressions at this moment.

Seeing everyone being persuaded one after another, Fang Li just wanted to speak out, but was interrupted.

"Nah."

Aqua, who had been silent from the beginning, suddenly said this to Rockcraft.

"You're not human, are you?"
