"Are you crazy?!"

For the first time, Finn Droste showed a gloomy expression, and looked at Katerina and the others in a messy manner: "Citibank Federal Bank has no request to help you for free, and you refused?!"

"You heard my answer," Katerina said.

"But this is a loan with no additional clauses and no interest! I don't know how many people covet it, don't you want it?" Finn Droste said eagerly: "Without our help, how did you defeat the noble faction? This The country is their plaything! You don’t want money. How can I go back to work?!”

Before coming to the Kingdom of Romanov, the old man of the Drost family urged him repeatedly, and even gave him a death order, to lend money no matter what to help Katerina ascend the throne.Finn Droste thinks this task is too simple, and there is no challenge at all. After all, he came to visit with a lot of banknotes. Isn't it easy to keep the money?

Who doesn't love money?

Who doesn't need money?

But Katerina still refused, firmly and beyond doubt.

Looking at her determined eyes, Finn Drost was a little angry and wanted to say something, but the sudden severe pain in his stomach made his expression change.

He covered his stomach and glanced at the cabbage tea he drank just now, his expression was extremely exciting.

"Mr. Droste, the toilet is in the third room on the left when you go out." Lu Jin, the housekeeper, reminded him.

Finn Drost rushed out the door and headed straight for the toilet.

"Uncle Hawke's invention is as strong as ever," Katerina said.

"It's obviously because he has a bad stomach."

"Father, why did we refuse his funding?"

Junia looked back at the cabbage cake and asked curiously: "We are short of money now, wouldn't it be a good thing someone is willing to help?"

"There is no such thing as a pie in the sky." Ma Wei touched his daughter's head and said softly: "Free of charge is always the most expensive, and the price will be obtained from places you don't know."

"Eunia doesn't understand"

"If we accept funding from Citibank, we can indeed relieve the urgent need, but what about the future?"

Ma Wei fiddled with the pocket watch in his hand, and explained in a slow voice: "Such a large sum of money cannot come out of thin air. The fact that Citibank Federal Bank funded Her Highness Katerina's ascension to the throne will be exposed sooner or later. At that time, if they propose What request, agree or reject?"

"If it's an unreasonable request, just refuse it!" Junia said.

"Having said that, have you ever thought that in the eyes of the world, Citibank has helped us unconditionally, but when they asked for remuneration, they were rejected. Would Her Highness Katerina be regarded as a treacherous person?" People? Even if she comes up with the terms signed today, no one will believe her, because everyone knows that Citibank has never traded at a loss, they are businessmen and capital, and the world has already clearly defined them."

Ma Wei said: "What is terrible is not the terms in black and white, but how others perceive you. If Her Highness Katerina is regarded as a treacherous person, how can she stick to the truth? In the eyes of the world, she is the same as King Paul I." What's the difference? Given time, when the Romanov Kingdom faces another crisis, who else would be willing to help a treacherous person? Today's greed will lose tomorrow's credibility."

"Furthermore, what the Citibank Federal Bank promised was to borrow money from Her Majesty Katerina, which is a private contract. Once Her Royal Highness Katerina, the leader, agrees, will the subordinates who follow her regard the Citibank Federal Bank as a My own people? If even the leader accepts gifts from others, what will the subordinates do? Those who accepted the bribes from Citibank, wouldn’t they become the next batch of nobles?”

"The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. This head cannot be opened."

Junia opened her mouth in surprise: "That is to say, the unconditional funding agreed by Citigroup Federal Bank is actually more conspiracy?"

"That's right." Mavi nodded: "This is a gift from the devil. It seems to be free, but in fact it costs more and loses more! They want to corrupt Her Highness Katerina's will, let her continue to borrow money, and fall Into the abyss, invisible, and get rid of the future enemy."

"Father, I'm not as superficial as you think." Katerina couldn't help but said, "Of course I understand the stakes, but we really need money, otherwise we won't be able to last a few days with food."

"As for the money, I'll figure it out."

"What can you do?"

Ma Wei smiled: "Disintegrate the enemy's alliance from within."

"Are you sure?" Katerina frowned. "Now that group of nobles and the God of Wisdom are wearing a pair of pants, it's not that easy to create a gap between them."

"Nobles pursue interests, so it's good to start with interests. To achieve this, you need enough information. You need the help of Fat Orange and Little Black."

Ma Wei suddenly remembered Fat Orange and Xiao Hei. It had been a day and a night for them to go out to gather the stray cats in Tyumen City, and they hadn't come back in the afternoon. Could something have happened?
No, I have to go back and have a look.

Saying goodbye to Duke Hawke, Ma Wei and the others took dozens of catties of cabbage and set foot on the way back.

Finn Droste, who had just come out of the toilet, looked at the receding carriage, and just about to catch up, his stomach hurt again, and it was more urgent and more severe than last time
He had no choice but to jump into the field opposite the manor. A few minutes later, he almost collapsed, crawled out of the field, and said weakly to the housekeeper Lu Jin: "No, please call me a doctor. If you pull it down, you will die."

"That group of quack doctors should stop calling." The housekeeper Lu Jin helped him up and said, "I'll get you a cup of hot tea. You must not get dehydrated at this time, just get over it."

"You are really...experienced." Finn Droste said through gritted teeth.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Ma Wei and the others returned to Tyumen City and found that many wooden frames had been erected on the street.

During the half day they left, Levin, Christopher, and Selina recruited many workers, moved some wood from outside the city, and began to build a temporary wooden shed for shelter from the wind and rain, which had already taken shape.

At this rate, Ma Wei estimated that the wooden shed would be erected the day after tomorrow, and the wheat flour would be baked into bread and distributed to the refugees tomorrow morning at the latest.

"Levin! Is Fat Orange Little Black back?"

Back at the church, Ma Wei immediately found Levin who was recording the names of the workers, and asked about the condition of Fat Orange and Little Black.

"No."

Levin raised his head and exclaimed in surprise, "That's right, why haven't they come back yet? Nothing will happen!"

"Should I send someone to look for it?" Katerina asked.

"Do not bother."

Edward, who was out shopping, walked in from the gate and said calmly, "I saw them in the afternoon."

"where?"

"Not in the city." Edward said: "Fat Orange and Little Black took a group of cats into the forest outside. I don't know what they are doing. Maybe they are in a meeting."
