Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

……

With the negotiations with the Knights of Favonius over, Anastasia knew there was another matter to attend to.

That is the Mond Wine Alliance, which was responsible for taking over the wineries left behind by the old nobles such as Lawrence.

Oh, to be more precise, it's now the property of the Northern Bank.

Because the Northern Bank used the Mond Wine Alliance's debts to buy the Mond Wine Alliance, after the Mond Wine bubble burst, the old Mond nobles who were unable to repay their debts were burdened with huge debts.

Everything they owned was mortgaged to the Northern Bank as collateral to pay off their debts.

Naturally, this also includes Lawrence.

Of these, the Lawrence family had the most and the largest amount of debt.

As a direct collaborator with the Fools, Lawrence derived all the resources for building the Mondstadt Wine Alliance from the Fools, and he was also one of the most active members during the bubble event.

This is why the Lawrence family had the most debt after the bubble burst.

This meant that even if Lawrence went bankrupt, he couldn't plug this loophole.

To pay off his debts, Lawrence even resorted to selling his daughter.

"Let me go! Let me go! You bastards!"

Just as they were taking inventory and receiving Lawrence's property, they saw two firefly sorcerers grabbing a little girl with short, ice-blue hair.

Anastasia's eyes held a strange light as she looked at the little girl in front of her.

She noticed that the little girl in front of her seemed to have an uncanny resemblance to a certain executive officer, which gave her some ideas, and she asked the two firefly sorcerers.

Who is this girl?

"Lady Anastasia, this girl is the eldest daughter and next heir of the Lawrence family. Her name is Yura Lawrence. We found her while inventorying the Lawrence family's assets. What should we do?"

Just as Anastasia was pondering what to do, the woman who walked up behind her suddenly caught her attention, causing her to stop thinking and quickly bow.

"Madam."

The "lady" ignored Anastasia's greeting and instead noticed the little girl with ice-blue hair who had been captured, revealing a thoughtful look in her eyes.

"Madam, this girl is the Lawrence family's daughter. What should we do?"

In response to Anastasia's greeting, "Lady" glanced at Yura, who was being held in the hands of the Firefly Sorcerer, and said indifferently.

“Interesting. Take it back to winter. You can either give it to that guy Pantalone or send it to Arecino and deliver it to the House of Hearths.”

Although Anastasia did not understand why "Lady" said that, she still obeyed the order given by "Lady".

“I understand, Madam.”

----------

P.S.: I was a bit tired from writing, so I compressed this part of the story to finish it quickly (it's a combination of the Phantom Flame and Tulips that some people wanted to see). I'll be back to Winter Tomorrow. By the way, I've already written six chapters, one more than the five I said I'd write. Shouldn't I give them a little something in return (hint)?

Chapter 39 What? I've been impeached again?

"What? My plan has been discovered again?"

While Pantalone was in his office processing documents and thinking about how to manage the Northern Bank to generate more money out of thin air for his spending spree,

At that moment, a lawsuit arrived from the Fools, causing Pantalone, who was handling official business, to nearly have his glasses fall off his face.

He didn't even know how to properly think about how to alleviate his urgent financial pressure.

Before he even received the money, his plan was inexplicably exposed again.

Could it be that his secret plot with "Puppet" to restart the "Mechanical Autonomous Agency" project and his plan to create "mechanical prosthetics" have been discovered?

impossible?

His research funding hasn't even been allocated yet.

How was it discovered so quickly?

Pantalone racked his brains, but he couldn't understand how his plan had been exposed so quickly.

It hasn't been long since his previous plan was rejected by the impeachment, and now his new plan has been exposed so quickly. How can he possibly stay calm?

And who is it this time?

Arecino?

Or were they other executives who didn't like him?

Just as Pantalone was pondering who it could be, the Fool's Cleric standing in front of him reported and explained.

"That's right, Lord Pantalone. The official impeaching you this time isn't Lady 'Servant' Arecino, but rather the sixth seat's 'Scrapper' Scaramucci."

"Scaramucci?"

The Thunder Kingdom has collapsed?

What exactly does that giant baby doll want to do?

Last time, that guy got involved in the executive meeting and joined Arecino in impeaching me. What is he planning to do this time?
