Was it because he didn't express himself clearly enough in Chapter 173?
Michele stared intently at Ranetta, waiting for his answer.
Laneta narrowed his small eyes slightly, seemingly seriously considering what Michele had just said.
The Lanetta family's business has hit a bottleneck; if things continue like this, they might go bankrupt.
Although he had considered selling the goods at low prices to commoners or not-so-wealthy nobles, he wondered how they could make any money that way.
In particular, the quality of their fruit is incomparable to that of the fruit currently on the market.
Even if they lower the price, some nobles will not buy them because their quality is far inferior.
When nobles bought fruit, eating it was secondary; their main purpose was to save face.
If their fruits and vegetables were displayed on the counter, they would be so different from those currently being sold that they would become a source of much criticism.
What's even worse is that the vegetables and fruits they sell are only one star coin more expensive than theirs!
Those despicable business scoundrels!
They absolutely don't want to give him any way out!
He thought that having new fruit would solve everything, but who knew... the new fruit wasn't popular, and most of the fruit is now stored in cold storage, filling several warehouses.
If this continues, they'll probably go bankrupt soon!
"What do you want to do?" Lanetta remained silent for a long time before finally speaking slowly.
The only one with any brains in the Lanetta family right now is Michele.
That brainless Le Tekar has been completely disregarding his father, Tan Chi, ever since he registered their marriage.
He deserves to be wounded and lose his memory on the battlefield!
Michele sensed Ranetta's wavering resolve and slowly moved closer to him before speaking again: "Previously, Letekar refused to help the family because he remembered what happened at Ranetta's house and resented your punishment of him, Father. But now he has amnesia..."
Lanetta instantly realized something, and his small eyes immediately focused.
He looked at Michele with an "I see" expression and said, "Then let's go find Letecar now and get him to agree to help the family business?"
Michael shook his head. "Father, we are still strangers to him, and I'm afraid he won't agree."
Lanetta flung his hand away, his face immediately darkening again. "Then what else is there to say?"
Before losing her memory, she didn't recognize him as her father; after losing her memory, she didn't recognize him at all.
In the end, it's all just empty talk!
Michele knelt at Lanetta's feet, tugging at his trouser leg, and said, "Father, don't worry. What I mean is, it's a good thing he doesn't remember right now. We can use this to our advantage and send insects to His Highness the Second Prince..."
His meaning was already quite clear.
Taking advantage of Letekar's amnesia, Tan Chi may have already developed a rift with him, which would be perfect for him to take advantage of the situation!
Lanetta glanced at Michele, paused for a moment, and said, “Then go and pick a few suitable sub-females, and send them to His Highness the Second Prince. Just say that I specially picked them to take care of Letekar.”
Michele: "..."
He almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He had laid the groundwork for so long just to get Lanetta to send him to Tanchi.
He actually asked him to send other insects to Tan Chi, and there were several of them!
Michele took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger and frustration in her heart, and then tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing a seemingly peaceful smile.
"Father, if we suddenly send some insects who are not familiar with Letekar over, I'm afraid even without His Highness the Second Prince saying so, Letekar will be the first to object, right?"
Lanetta disliked it when other insects contradicted his views, so as soon as Michael finished speaking, Lanetta raised his whip and lashed it hard across Michael's back.
"What? You think my brain is less intelligent than yours?!"
Michele staggered from the blow and fell face-first to the ground.
He clenched his fist on the ground, then shook his head through gritted teeth. "Father, that's not what I meant. Your method is naturally the best, but I'm worried that things might go wrong with Letekar. After all, he went crazy recently because of a bunch of female insects. I'm just worried..."
Ranetta glanced at Michele's disheveled appearance, and his expression recovered slightly, indicating that he believed his words to some extent.
He actually felt that Tan Chi, being a male insect, would definitely not only like one female insect.
Most of what they said to the public before was for the sake of the royal family's image, which is why they said they only wanted one insect, Letekar.
The more he said that, the more insects rushed to him.
Who knows, he might do something with other insects and then claim he was forced to.
Wow! The royal family really knows how to have fun!
"So what do you suggest we do now? Should we just send him one insect?"
Lanetta thought for a moment, then looked at Michele, signaling him to share his thoughts.
Michael then cautiously said, "I think it would be better if I or Mien took care of him as brothers of Letekar. After all, brothers who are related by blood will surely make him lower his guard, right?"
When Michele mentioned the name "Mien," Ranetta was visibly taken aback.
Because he had almost forgotten that he had a son named Mien.
He remembered that he had also gone to the First Legion before, but it seemed that he had been staying in the First Legion because his mental sea was severely damaged, and he rarely came back.
Lanetta thought for a moment, "Then let Mien go to Letkarna and tell him that he must find a way to take down Tan Chi no matter what!"
Michele: "..."
Was he not clear enough in his expression?
Or did he not include himself in his speech just now?
How did Laneta skip the correct options and directly select the option for Mien?
Michele knew that if he contradicted Raneta now, he would definitely get beaten up again, but if he let it go, he might really let Mien step on him to get together with Tan Chi.
He had already sent Letekar to Tanchi.
If he were to give Mi En another chance now, and Tan Chi took a liking to him, would he still have any chance of survival with Tan Chi in the future?
Thinking of this, Michele couldn't help but clench her fist tightly. "Father, Mien's appearance is probably not His Highness the Second Prince's type..."
Lanetta doesn't even remember this son, so how could he possibly remember what he looks like?
But after hearing what Michele said, he finally understood.
He glanced at Michelle, "You mean, send you to Tan Chi's place?"
Michele, of course, sensed the displeasure in Ranetta's words. He lowered his head further. "Father, His Highness the Second Prince and I have a history of affection. The reason he deliberately spoiled Letkar and let so many insects know was simply to make me regret it and beg him. If I'm willing to humble myself and beg him, he'll definitely agree..."
