Chapter 2546: Cry and laugh

The fairy queen put down the tea cup, and with a crisp and subtle noise, her slightly low voice sounded again: "Xiao Yi, what do you think?"
"I agree with Anasta."
"Oh? Don't you have any different opinions?"
I shook my head and said: "When I was chatting with Carter Horton, I didn't notice that he was at all uneasy, but he looked calm and relaxed, so I guess that Ai Ruicheng is still under his control. The time to send troops hastily, not only will not effectively weaken the Carter family's status, but because of the identity of the aggressor, it will stimulate the civilians and the poor in Ai Ruicheng, and make their hearts to the Carter family, unite, and work together. Then, our The situation will be pretty bad."
The fairy queen smiled and shook her head. She used her index finger to touch Anasta and me, and said earnestly: "You guys, I'm still too young to see the hidden truth, true and false."
With a lightly regretful sigh, he said again: "But it's okay, it can increase your knowledge and experience, even if you don't attack the city once, it's nothing."
Anasta looked at the fairy queen suspiciously, not knowing what she meant.
I also frowned, with a solemn expression, and for a while I couldn't understand why the Queen's grandma had to say this. Could it be that Carter Horton's calmness was fake? Is he in a desperate situation of internal and external troubles?
Being puzzled, a waiter hurried over, knelt on one knee, and presented a secret letter.
After receiving the secret letter, the fairy queen waved her hand, and the waiter got up and left.
Open the seal, unfold the secret letter, take a few glances, then drop the secret letter on the table, and say: "Look at it, it's from Ai Rui City."
I picked up the secret letter in wonder, and read it softly: "The amount of tax for the entire year is 301 billion gold coins, and the amount of consumption throughout the year is 40 billion gold coins."
And in the lower part of the secret letter, attach a thin account book.
"this is......"
"This is the income and expenditure of Ai Ruicheng this year" the fairy queen said: "The vacancy of more than nine billion gold coins can only be spent from the treasury. However, this is only the vacancy this year. The year when the vacancy is the largest is a disaster. In the year when it was rampant, in that year alone, Eri City emptied half of its treasury.
Picking up the tea cup, she gently fiddled with the lid of the cup, pushed aside the floating tea, took a sip, and breathed out her breath, and said: "Today's Ai Ruicheng is supported by the money borrowed from your foster father. The operation, by itself, has long since become an empty shelf."
Upon hearing this, I suddenly remembered the words that Carter Horton had inadvertently uttered during dinner with me: Ai Ruicheng was once the leading business empire in Hefeng Continent, and it will surely regain its peak in the future.
Now it seems that he didn't tell me what he said, but he hoped to pass me on to Master Dewey, so that the foster father would generously donate his money and help him solve his urgent needs.
Damn, if I knew he had such thoughts, I shouldn't have said this to Master Dewey!
"Looking at your expression of remorse, did you do something inappropriate?" the fairy queen asked in a leisurely tone.
"Yes" I nodded and told her the conversation with Master Dewey.
"Forget it, Quan is not exhausted as the Carter family, so let them get away with it for a while."
The elven queen on the side put down the account books and said in a puzzled way: "Since you have anticipated that Erri City is suffering from internal and external troubles, why don't we take this opportunity of a lifetime to open up territory?"
The fairy queen chuckled, shook her hand, and said, "It's too late."
"Why is it too late?" She was even more curious.
"When Xiaoyi originally told Master Dewey about the conversation with Carter Horton, I am afraid that the Master has already made a decision. He will not let his money go in vain, so even if we enter the city of Ai , I am afraid it will also suffer great losses and encounter unimaginable resistance..."
She paused, looked at me, and said, "...resistance from Master Dewey."
I didn’t say a word. Actually, there’s really nothing to say. Master Dewey would definitely not say no or no for the huge amount of aid of more than tens of billions of gold coins. Unless he gives him the hands of the conquered Erricheng territory, his elderly will definitely do it. Use one's own power to forcibly intervene in the war.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help lowering my head and muttering, "Sorry."
"Hurry up, it's not your fault."
The tone of the elf queen was like a spring breeze, which cleared the deep guilt in my heart.
"Grandma, what are you going to do with John Davis's family?"
The Elf Queen changed the subject calmly.
"It depends on whether John Davis is smart enough," the fairy queen said lightly: "If he can see the form, know who to loyalty, and how to loyalty, I will re-enable him, what's the problem, but If he knows how to pretend and doesn’t understand, and has to play with his cleverness, I don’t mind using him to deter bad guys."
"I hope he can see the form."
I murmured.
Leaving the palace, I went straight to the prison and met John Davis again. His condition was worse than the last time I saw him. The whole person was disintegrated, but his eyes were still sharp.
After seeing me, Davis climbed up from the ground with great effort, holding on to the metal fence with the thickness of his wrist, and looking at me baffledly: "Sir, my family..."
"A good news, a bad news, which one do you want to hear?"
He lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "Good news."
"Most of your family members have taken over, and I want to congratulate you for having a very sensible little daughter."
When he heard the three characters for'little daughter', John Davis' eyes widened suddenly, his hands clasping the fence trembling, and his trembling lips kept making the same tone: "Good! Good! Good... ..."
After a few consecutive noises, he knelt on the ground without warning, and slammed his head at me: "Thank you, thank you, sir, for saving Caitlin back! Thank you..."
He cried, he actually cried.
First, she sobbed shallowly, then she couldn't stop her tears, and finally cried like a child.
The cry echoed in the empty prison, looking very miserable, but I did not sympathize with him.
After a long while, the crying ceased, I knelt down and said in a low voice, "There is another bad news. You won't be too late after hearing this."
John Davis wiped the red old eyes with the back of his hand, raised his eyes and looked at me, with a calm look, waiting for the bad news to come.
"Your eldest son and second son... probably, anyway, your two older sons are still controlled by the Carter family. In other words, I failed to save your two sons."
John Davis was startled when he heard the words, and then burst into laughter. The laughter was louder than the cry, like a jackal roaring in the prison.
