Chapter 276 All I want is results, do you understand?
Although Michele didn't say anything, his thoughts were exactly the same as Lanetta's.
In his previous life, Mien died on the battlefield due to a mental breakdown.
However, at that time, the Lanetta family was at the height of their power, so who would care about a mere B-class female soldier?
Even if he were to die, the compensation would be nothing more than a very small amount for the powerful Lanetta family.
But for the Lanetta family now, this is a considerable sum of money.
So Michele was just as angry as Ranetta.
Unable to hit Mien, he could only take his anger out on him.
Lanetta grabbed something from the table and threw it at Michele, but fortunately, Michele had learned her lesson and dodged it without thinking.
Before Ranetta could explode in anger, Michele spoke up, "Father, please don't be angry. Although we won't get the money, the natural foods we packaged have already started selling, and the results are pretty good."
The advantage of mechanization is that things can be easily mass-produced. You just need to buy a few professional mechanical bugs and input the instructions to do them.
Lanetta's anger subsided somewhat, but he was still very upset about losing the money that was right in his hands.
"That damned female soldier, Mien, is utterly useless! If I had known he was this stupid, I shouldn't have given birth to him!"
Michele pursed her lips. If anyone was stupid, it was just like Ranetta.
He couldn't help but murmur to himself, but on the surface he maintained a standard, polite smile.
Listening to Lanetta berating Mien from the side, Michele then continued, "Father, you don't need to be angry about Mien. Have you forgotten what I told you before about a family of insects who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy a female military officer..."
Michele had already made a statement for Ranetta before.
So, given what Mien is doing now, how could Lanetta possibly object?
He was now eager to cash in on Mien immediately, fearing that things might change if he delayed.
Michele naturally shared the same idea, but since they hadn't yet publicly recruited female soldiers for marriage, he could only wait a few more days.
Ideally, it should be two days before they release the information to the public.
Michelle was worried that asking too early, before they had finalized the idea, but if she asked too late, she worried that the other family would still be looking for the same female soldier from her previous life.
That means Mien won't fetch a good price.
Lanetta's brows furrowed. "I'm leaving this to you. Get the money back as soon as possible. I don't care what methods you use, all I want is results, do you understand?"
His threatening tone came up almost immediately.
Last time, he failed to get money from Mien, and Ranetta didn't want anything to go wrong again, so he gave Michele a heads-up beforehand.
“If Mien doesn’t marry into that family, then you go there yourself, understand?”
Michelle's lips twitched, but she still obediently replied, "Don't worry, Father, I will definitely handle this matter beautifully."
He is no longer the Michael of this life; he is the Michael of the previous life, the resource-rich insect king. With the advantage of his reborn insect form, even the smallest things can be done with ease.
After hearing Michele's promise, Ranetta felt much better, but to truly feel better, he naturally needed to find something interesting to do.
Lanetta stood up, glanced at Michele, and said, "Alright, do as you say quickly. It would be best to finalize things within the next couple of days."
"Yes, Father Xiong."
Michele frowned as she watched Raneta leave the living room in high spirits.
Lanetta has been acting strangely lately, but it's hard to pinpoint exactly what's wrong; there's been an inexplicable change in his words and actions.
It was at least somewhat different from the frenzied male insect he remembered.
However, these things are not important for now. He should first go to the Duke family to inquire about the situation so that he can sell Mien as soon as possible!
Meanwhile, after leaving the living room, Lanetta went directly to his secret base.
Normally, only he and a cleaning mechanical insect come to his room, which is filled with all sorts of tools he has collected from outside.
However, besides all sorts of tools, there's also a male insect tied inside.
However, the male insect looked very listless, its eyes staring blankly outwards, and the area where its ankles were bound was now a dark, murky mess.
Although there were no visible wounds on his body, the insect looked as if it had been abused more than once.
Timothy's face paled even more when he saw a chubby figure approaching.
But he remained completely still.
He had struggled, but it was no use.
I've tried communicating with them, but it's still not working.
Timothy suddenly regretted not mating with those smaller insect families back then; at least he wouldn't have been locked up in this dark and sunless place by a male insect and then forced into it.
He even considered secretly contacting Michele at first, but he couldn't even leave the room, and there were no insects around.
Apart from a mechanical insect that follows instructions to clean, no other living or moving things appear.
Timothy was forced to take a stimulant by Lanetta every day and then tortured by him all night long.
Now, whenever he sees Laneta, the whole insect feels an uncontrollable urge to gag.
But he didn't dare. The first time he did it, he was severely beaten by Ranetta.
Later, he would get beaten whenever he reacted in that way.
He could only bite his arm to prevent himself from doing so.
But precisely because of this, he now has a clear resistance to inducers.
Timothy was unsure whether he should be relieved or whether continuing like this would cause Ranetta to lose interest in him.
After all, a male insect that is not good at insects can't do much.
"Little darling, you haven't seen me all day, did you miss me?" Lanetta waved the inducing agent in front of Timothy, then mixed it into the nutrient solution.
He then sat down on the edge of the bed and gave the nutrient solution in his hand to Timothy.
Timothy glanced at Raneta, and without saying anything, he drank the nutrient solution directly.
If he doesn't drink, he won't have any other food all day.
Fortunately, the nutrients Lanetta provided were all high-grade, and the taste was acceptable.
He had drunk quite a bit when he was with the Garwan family, so he didn't feel much resistance to it.
After taking the next dose of the inducing agent, he only felt a little warm all over; nothing else changed.
After waiting for a while, Lanetta frowned in dissatisfaction, then looked in the direction he was expecting...
