Chapter 1528 Opportunity

"A deadbeat?"

I was confused and weak.

No matter how you say it, Master Dewey is the number one wealthy businessman in Hefeng Continent. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as "as rich as anyone in the country". How could such a person teach me how to "defy debts"?

Perhaps my tone was too horrified, so Master Dewey chuckled: "Why are you so surprised? In your mind, rich businessmen cannot be allowed to default on their debts?"

"It's not that" I murmured after coming back to my senses, "it's just that I feel a little surprised."

"Is this surprising?" Master Dewey said with a smile: "No matter how rich and powerful I am, I still can't get rid of my identity as a merchant. As long as I am a merchant, I will definitely have credit and default. This These are the rules among merchants. It seems that you still have a lot to learn."

I laughed twice.

Master Dewey continued: "If today's matter is handled by you, it is estimated that the detailed content of this ancient text will not need to be given away as a bargaining chip."

I paused and asked tentatively: "Is it because of credit?"

"Yes, think about it, as the grandson-in-law of the Fairy Queen and a junior, wouldn't she be so shameless as to ask you for the details of ancient texts?" Master Dewey chuckled and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid. By then, even her granddaughter won’t want to see her.”

After hearing what Master Dewey said, I was glad that I was not taken over by a large package. This meant that I would push my fiancée out and form a united front against her own grandmother. I couldn't handle this.

We still can't learn this merchant's thinking and rules, and even if we learn, 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 carefree life.

I didn’t reveal the night conversation with Master Dewey to the Fairy Queen. One was my adoptive father and the other was my fiancée’s grandmother. It’s hard to offend either of them, and it’s hard to get too close. It’s better to keep some distance between them as much as possible. deal with.

The scientific research team dispatched by Master Dewey arrived at the Moonlight City Airship Base at 8 a.m. on the third day.

I picked up the plane myself.

After the goblin scientific researchers and the accompanying dwarf guards greeted me, they followed me to the Moonlight City restaurant for breakfast, and then lined up into the palace.

When meeting the two queens, the goblins all knelt down on one knee, which was the most basic etiquette for envoys to foreign countries. As for the several dwarf guards, they only bowed slightly to show respect.

The two queens didn't take it seriously, but several elders were a little dissatisfied, especially Elder Lindsay, who was sharp-tongued and harsh-tongued. She sneered at the guards and said, "Now that I'm here, I'm Moonlight." City, of course we have to abide by the rules of Moonlight City. As civilians, why don’t you kneel down and worship the two most respected queens in Moonlight City? I heard that when you just got off the airship, you bowed to Elder An Xiaoyi After bowing down and paying homage, does this elder An Xiaoyi have a more noble status than the two supreme empresses?"

This sounds like saying that the dwarves don't understand the rules, but in fact, it is trying to sow discord between the two queens and me, and it seems that they want to label me as someone who has great achievements and overshadows the master.

I glanced at Elder Lindsay and said calmly: "Elder Lindsay said a little too much, and his control was a little too lenient. All the dwarves and goblins present are good friends with me. They are all my friends. They have a close relationship with each other. We joke around and talk to each other. There's nothing wrong with kneeling down. It was a private occasion, not in a solemn auditorium like this. Furthermore, how can you be sure that the dwarf and goblin friends are kneeling to me? Maybe they are kneeling to someone behind me. People, for example, my fiancée, Princess Aurora."

When it comes to Princess Aurora, this topic is completely blocked by me.

Why should a courtier kneel down and bow to the princess?

Elder Lindsay frowned and said nothing more, but I felt a hint of gloom from her heavily made-up face.

Oh, if you don't want me to feel relaxed, I won't let you feel comfortable. Come on, let's hurt each other. Who's afraid of whom?

"Now that we are about to talk about important matters, the two elders should stop here."

The Elf Queen's voice was crisp yet majestic.

I smiled lightly and glanced at Elder Lindsay, who was staring at me. I said "yes" and returned to the queue.

Elder Lindsay's expression was slightly cold, and she responded with a 'yes' and returned to the queue.

The Elf Queen just spoke to stop us from continuing to argue. It seemed that she was trying to maintain order in the hall, but in fact she revealed her own attitude.

After Elder Lindsay made fun of him, you remained silent. After Elder An Xiaoyi retorted, you stopped him and put order in order. What do you mean?

Isn’t this clearly biased towards Elder An Xiaoyi!

Although the other elders did not explain their words, their eyes communicated everything they wanted to say.

I don't think so.

Anyway, both queens prefer me, what can you do?

Don't think that because your family is so powerful, you can do whatever you want. No matter how awesome you are, can you be more powerful than the two queens?

You have all seen that rebellion. Whether it is the royal relatives or the nobles, they will be wiped out at will, without any regard for the status or influence of the other party. With this courage and means alone, who of you would dare to prick your hair?

After that, the Elf Queen talked to the goblins and hoped that they could cooperate in studying the ecological environment and geological structure of the island, but she never mentioned the portal.

The goblins also knew that the two queens were not on the right track with certain elders, but they couldn't put it aside, so they pointed out useless things to dissuade them from getting involved in the island.

The atmosphere above the court once became harmonious and harmonious.

Not long after, the Elf Queen ordered someone to send the group to the hotel, then said a few insignificant words and then dispersed.

When meeting foreign guests this time, the Fairy Queen always acted lukewarm, and even said not a word. After everyone dispersed, the Fairy Queen stood up, rubbed her temples, and said: "This Lindsay is really brave. Dare to use foreign guests as weapons to test the bottom line of our protection for you."

I walked over, supported the Fairy Queen, and said, "But thanks to the Queen's words of help, otherwise there would have been another verbal battle today."

"She can come forward to protect you, but it's a bit inconvenient for me as an old woman." The Fairy Queen laughed and said: "Don't blame me. The reason why I didn't come forward was to give them a chance."

"Oh?" I asked curiously, "What chance?"

The Fairy Queen smiled and walked forward without saying a word.

On the side, the Elf Queen supported the Fairy Queen's other arm and asked, "Does grandma intend to make them submit to you?"

"No, no." A hint of indifference flashed in the Fairy Queen's eyes, and she said calmly: "I just gave them a chance to save their family and their own lives."
