Chapter 1472 Stealing chickens is not a loss of rice
Chapter 1472: Stealing chicken but losing rice
Ahudala couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart. Karugala, who had not called himself his brother for many years, actually played the family card at this time. The call "brother" was so affectionate.【】
Ahudala frowned and said: "My eldest prince, what you said is meaningless. Don't you and I understand in our hearts that if Qingyuan Pass is lost one day, will Haoyue City still be able to hold it? On that day, Three Hundred Altars will be lost.
How useful is the kerosene? Can it withstand the Pitzers?"
"This... you..."
Karugala was pressed hard by Ahudala, and he knew in his heart that it was meaningless to say anything at this time, so he simply gritted his teeth and compromised: "Okay, okay, I did this wrong, Ahu, I
I solemnly apologize to you. I will give these three hundred jars of fire oil to you and give them to Qingyuan Pass. Is this done?"
"Hahaha, give it to me? Hahaha, hahahaha..."
Karugala thought Ahudala would be relieved by doing this, but unexpectedly Ahudala suddenly laughed loudly, with ridicule and contempt in his laughter.
Karukala was startled and asked quickly: "You...you, you, what are you laughing at?"
Ahudala did not answer, but shook his head and continued to laugh. The laughter interpreted helplessness, depression and pain.
At this time, Lu Zihao walked up to Karugala and whispered: "First Prince, you don't know yet, that batch of kerosene has...already..."
"Go on, what's going on?" Karugala was so anxious that he almost yelled.
"No more... no more..."
Lu Zihao then informed Karugala about the kerosene explosion in the old house in the west of the city, which burned down half the street.
Karugala was stunned immediately, his eyes widened, and he said in great astonishment: "Impossible, this is impossible... Why didn't anyone tell me? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
Seeing Karukala's appearance, Ahudala was really furious. He said to himself, "It's already this time. Don't you still believe it?"
As a result, Ahudala was no longer depressed, and opened his mouth and shouted: "If you don't believe it, go to the old house in the west of the city and have a clear look now, and appreciate the tragedy you have caused!"
After saying this, Ahudala turned around, brushed his sleeves, and left angrily.
The next moment, the front hall fell into silence.
"Eldest Prince, don't worry too much. Actually, this is..."
Lu Zihao wanted to say some words of comfort to Karukala, but Karukala cut him off with an angry roar.
"Get out of here!"
Lu Zihao didn't dare to say anything, bowed hurriedly and left in disgrace.
After Lu Zihao left, Karugala sat alone in the front hall for a long time with an angry voice.
Suddenly, Karugala grabbed a teacup on the table and threw it to the ground, smashing it into pieces.
Immediately afterwards, Karukala cried out heartbrokenly: "Gods have no eyes, gods have no eyes!".
----------------------------------
The next morning, inside the palace.
In the side hall, King Baliger sat on the throne with a dark face, staring closely at Karugala, who was standing in the hall with his head bowed.
At this time, Karugala was like a child who had done something wrong, with all his grievances and pity written on his face.
"Karu, Karu, you... you, you, what do you want me to say about you?" Barriger's tone was full of complaints and disappointment.
Ahudala entered the palace early in the morning and reported to the king the kerosene explosion that occurred in the west of the city last night.
When the king learned about this, he was first surprised, then furious, and then ordered people to call Karugala into the palace.
"Father, please listen to my explanation..."
"Explain? What else can you explain?"
Karukala was about to explain, but was ruthlessly interrupted by the king.
The king didn't let Karugala speak, and Karugala didn't dare to say anything. He could only lower his head obediently and endure his father's anger.
After a while, the king said: "Karu, tell me honestly, why did you lie that this batch of kerosene was purchased from Jiezhou City, and why did you sell it to the Luna Army at such a high price? Do you know,
Once this matter reaches the Luna Army and reaches the ears of General Fan and others, what consequences will it have?"
Karukala admitted his mistake and said: "Father, I was wrong, please forgive me once."
The king said angrily: "Explain, give me a reasonable explanation quickly, otherwise, I will definitely not forgive you!"
Karukala lowered his head and said in an aggrieved tone: "Father, there are difficulties for me to do this. First of all, let me make it clear that I am not doing this for the sake of greed for money. It is mainly because...because of the Haoyue God.
The materials used for the Colossus suddenly exceeded the budget. I still... still have some money left, but I don't dare to ask you, father, so I..."
"What? Still short of money?" The king looked at Karugala in shock and asked in surprise: "Karugala, you should know very well that you have already allocated more than half of the military expenditure that was originally allocated to the Luna Army.
How could there still be a shortage of money?"
Kalugala immediately said: "Father, don't worry, it's mainly because we temporarily discovered a stone with better texture and more suitable quality. After thinking about it, my son always felt that since he found it, he should use the best stone."
Build a giant statue of the Hao Yue God, otherwise it would not be deceiving the Hao Yue God and not respecting the Hao Yue God enough, Father!"
"You...sigh!"
The king had already thought about what he was going to say and was going to scold Karukala, but when he heard what Karukala said, he suddenly lost his temper.
Karugala had identified his father's bloodline and knew that he could escape from this matter only if he pinned the matter on Haoyue God.
The king was silent for a moment, then his tone changed slightly and said: "Kalu, it's not because my father told you that you did this very inappropriately!"
Karugala nodded immediately: "Yes, what the father blames is that the son has already deeply regretted it..."
The king sighed softly and continued: "Now the Moon Army is in urgent need of kerosene for defense, but you concealed it and refused to report it, thus wasting three hundred jars of kerosene. You...how did you ask my father to follow me?"
General Fan, please explain?"
"Father, this is actually an accident. If the turtle hadn't suddenly turned over and shook the ground, the kerosene would have been sent to the Luna Army and to General Fan and the others." Karugala was very happy.
of chagrin.
"What's the use of talking about this now? Three hundred altars of kerosene have been destroyed overnight, and half of the street has been burned down. What you should do most is to find a way to remedy it immediately instead of complaining." The king lectured.
.
"Repair, remedy! Father, I will definitely remedy it." Karukala nodded like he was pecking at rice.
After thinking quickly, Kalugala said: "Father, I will immediately ask someone to buy the kerosene from Jiezhou City and transport it back. As compensation, I am willing to give double, that is, six hundred jars, and the money will be mine."
Personal expenses!”
"Nonsense, of course you are responsible for it, should I be responsible for it?" the king frowned.
Kalugala said: "My son only asks my father to persuade Ahu properly and not to tell General Fan the truth for the time being. After repelling the Piz people, my son will let his father punish me!"
Karugala also knew very well that he was relying on the Luna Army led by Fan Xingwang to fight against the Pitz people. If he offended Fan Xingwang at this time and made him feel resentful and slack off, the consequences would be disastrous!
The king shook his head and sighed: "You don't need to remind me about this. I have already had a good talk with Ahu, and he also agreed that as long as the kerosene is transported to Qingyuan Pass in time, he can hide it temporarily."
"Thank you, father. Thank you, father." Karugala immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The king said angrily: "You, you, you are smart but you are confused for a while. Let's see if you can do this kind of thing in the future!"
"My son doesn't dare, and I won't dare anymore!" Karugala said and bowed deeply.
