Second, when Volkal recruited half-orcs and beat half-orcs on the grassland, Lorraine accepted and said, "What's wrong with you. The way is much simpler."

Volkal nodded and said, "Yes. My lord, I just heard that half-orcs are fighting fiercely. This time I really saw the disunity of half-orcs.

Just a month ago, our black devil went to sneak an attack on a tribe, just in time for them to join another tribe. I led people to light up their backyards, and those people didn’t retreat. We went up and beat them. On the one hand, he easily destroyed a tribe. At that time, the half-orcs of another tribe thanked us, and the brothers were not polite with them, so they robbed this tribe the next day. "

Lorraine patted Vokkar on the shoulder and laughed, then waved his hand, and said, "What's this?) It's not difficult to understand, the Orcs are clear in Yemen's heart, we just go up and grab a handful, burn them at most, and then just Have to leave.

Their compatriots are different. Those who wanted to destroy their clan fell into the hands of their compatriots. They are better off than dead. "

Volkal scratched his head and said, "It is true. We have been wandering in the grassland for so long. There are a lot of orcs chasing us, but every time two different tribes meet, they can't chase them anymore, brothers. They were bitten tight, and deliberately took them to run on the chassis of other tribes."

Lorraine said, "Later, I sent people in to find you. They made a big circle about three hundred miles north of Xingxing Lake, but they didn't even see you."

Volkal grinned and said: "At that time, a large tribe was robbed, and its manpower was expanded to more than two thousand people, five thousand horses, and more people. The brothers became bolder. The large tribe was heavily guarded. The middle tribe had no oil and water. The fight is not happy.

Just thinking that there are many half-orc tribes in Xingxing Lake, and they are big tribes, they are all fat, and they are all jealous of killing themselves, and after discussing it, everyone agreed, and I took people straight to Xingxing Lake. "

Volkal seemed to think of some good memories, with a carefree expression, he smiled and said, "The tribe over the Star Lake. It's really fat! It's fat!

There are really cows and horses everywhere, and these tribes still have a lot of gold and precious stones, which are cheaper than our brothers.

After a few votes, the half-orcs were considered smart, and tens of thousands of people came to block us, and they fought two tough battles. The road to the north was blocked by them, and we continued to run south and circled. A big circle.

Later, we caught one who escaped, and we knew that the battle was over. I discussed with the brethren and thought it was time to come back. Those half-orcs were willing to follow us with us, and those who were willing to stay would be divided into things, but these guys also said, wait for us to call back. , They also came to join.

Then there was no battle in this road, and the brothers were brought back peacefully.

Something? Not to mention other things, Guangliangma. We came to more than two thousand horses. "

Vocal finished speaking in just a few minutes. Although he said lightly. Lorraine, who has experienced several wars, can imagine the danger.

Acting in an area full of enemies, once you relax your guard, maybe you will be made dumplings by the orcs, and Tikar is not performing investigation. It is not a surveillance, but an offensive task.

Not only to fight the half-orcs, but also to hurt the half-orcs, to relieve the pressure of Nian's battle, and from the horrible rumors about the black devil in the half-beast population, we can see how shrewd Taikar is.

Lorraine looked at his dark and rough face after being weather-beaten, and solemnly said: "You did a good job, Tikar, I believe that in this world, no one can do better than you.

Keep all the trophies. That is what you deserve. In addition, I have rewards for you.

All these horses belong to you. We have expanded such a large chassis. It is reasonable to form another legion. Princess Catherine and I will fight for Ruman City. We will use these horses to form a cavalry legion to patrol the grassland. , It’s up to you to be the commander of the army. As long as these brethren are willing to stay, regardless of their origin, they will all be appointed as officers. "

Chief of the Legion. That was Ye Danlin, who had never mixed up with weapons, had never been to Imperial Academy, and was born as an ordinary civilian. The highest military position that can be achieved by a soldier who was killed in one shot on the front line can only be a legionary commander. Only those who can be called generals and those who are just born good nobles can be regarded as members of the big family of the ruling class in feudal society.

The most important thing is that Vokar is only 27 years old this year. Young is the biggest capital. After this, many outstanding soldiers will not be able to overcome the obstacles in their lives. Tikar may not have the opportunity to enter the gate of the military department of Ruman City.

Volkal was naturally overjoyed. Although he had thought about rewards for his own merits, he only hoped that he would be promoted to General Larry's deputy by adding one level.

But he didn't expect that when he got off his horse, Lorraine buckled the cap of a legionnaire on his head, and Lorraine and Catherine worked together to recommend it, and this matter was settled.

Vocal's dark face showed a dark red light with excitement, and he saluted Lorraine, and said with full anger: "Thanks for the cultivation. I, Vocal, keep in mind the kindness of adults in this life, and I am willing to go through fire and water for adults in the future."

Lorraine shook his head lightly and said, "Don't thank me, this is what you deserve. Without you, the reinforcements of half-orcs will continue to enter Nian. As long as there are more than one or two thousand half-orcs, It will be like the straw on Luo Zhu's back, crushing our defense."

Think about it if the half-orcs continue to increase their troops, the six cities on the southern line must not be able to keep all of them. The defense line is torn apart, and the entire southern part of Nyan will become a hunting ground for the half-orcs.

Lorraine said: "Okay, take a good rest when you come back. I will ask someone to send you some new uniforms. Pack you up. Let's go back to Krone City in a beautiful and beautiful manner. I want your names to resound. Empire, let the bards sing your heroic deeds all over the continent. I have thought of the name, and it’s called "We Are Legend."

Lorraine had already figured out how to activate the propaganda machine to make the names of Volkal and the Black Devil a household name in the Ruman Empire.

"Yes, my lord." Vocal saluted immediately. Suddenly he slapped his head and exclaimed: "Yes. My lord. On my way, I have made maps of the terrain and tribes of the places I have passed. I wrote them down. I think this should be useful for adults."

Lorraine was startled, and then said in surprise: "The map? That's great. I was worried that I was not familiar with the geography when I went back.

"Yes". Tekkar hurried back to the team, and soon returned to Lorraine with a large piece of gray animal skin.

Lorraine took Volkal back to the carriage. Let the Guards set up a table, hula, shake it open, and spread the animal skins on the table.

I saw this gray translucent animal skin, three feet square. On the animal skins, mountains, rivers, valleys and other terrain are painted with black handwriting, and the name and scale of the tribe are also marked.

Lorraine leaned down and studied the map carefully.

At the bottom of the map is the city of Kroni, where Volkar and the others came out. The valleys, hills, rivers and other terrain are painted upwards. It can be seen that the grassland to the south of Kroni is relatively empty and there are few tribes.

Volkal's marching route is clearly marked on the map, and the time and scale of the battle with the orcs are also recorded.

In this way, Volkal's actions Lorraine could see clearly.

In the middle of the map is the elite Xingxing Lake area on the grassland. Looking at a number of circular stars lake graphics larger than a slap, Lorraine estimates that the lake is not at all proportional

Around the Star Lake, Volkal and the others marked a dense number of characters, some were the names and scales of half-orc tribes, some were battle records, and a few places were also specially circled.

Lorraine pointed at those circles and asked, "Is there anything special here?"

Vocal cast a sigh. Mysteriously said: "My lord. There is a gold mine. The orcs have been mining, but they are in the hands of several big tribes. I have seen that their mining methods are very primitive. If we control it in the hands of Nian, It's a big investment."

Lorraine secretly said in his heart: It seems that Feiying Mining must be prepared early.

But immediately Lorraine laughed dumbly, shook his head and said in secret: I have been hit by the devil, and I want to be in my hands before he is defeated, um, Leo must have affected me.

Shaking his head to drive away the idea of ​​the gold mine. Lorraine lay on the map and looked at it for a while, then looked up and asked, "Where is the Durqi tribe?"

Vocal pointed to the top position of the map, and said: "Probably in this place, but we didn't ran there. There are more than 500 miles away from where we are deep, so we didn't draw it. We explored these places, there are probably grasslands. Half of them are said to be outside these areas, there are several powerful tribes, and there are some gods and devil forbidden areas."

A few girls are limited by their identity. Although they have not come here, seeing Lorraine get a rare thing and lie there watching with all their attention, Catherine and the others are just as scratching as a cat. Unable to help his curiosity, he leaned forward to Lorraine.

Seeing the fur spread on the table, Adele frowned and patted Lorraine. Said: "What is this? Dirty Yi Er, it's a big smell."

Adele said so. Lorraine only smelled the unpleasant stench from the hides.

But Lorraine didn’t care about this, and said enthusiastically: “Vokar drew the map on the grassland. You see, this is where we are now, and this is Xingxinghu. This is the place we circled this time. Compared with the positive grassland, it can only be regarded as a corner.

Catherine and Lorraine were both interested, took out their handkerchiefs to cover their noses, and a few heads leaned forward on the map. "On the contrary, Lorraine squeezed aside.

Watching Catherine and others who were discussing how big these places are and how much they can sell. In the end, it is the black who is near the ink, and the girls who have been addicted to follow Lorraine and Leo to receive gifts. Looking at the grassland, the first thing that comes to mind is how much the land can sell.

Lorraine turned around and said to Volkal: "This map is the real priceless treasure. It is more important than anything you bring back. In the past few hundred years, we humans have been blind to the grassland. Now it is clear. Is in front of our eyes."

"I still have that girl from Deipule." Lorraine secretly said in his heart: Deipule has been working on the grassland for several years. As far as the understanding of the grassland is concerned, no one here can compare to her.

Once you have settled your attention, you have to let Deipoll look at this map when you go back. It's best to enrich it, but according to the temper of the girl, I am afraid it will not be so easy.

Lorraine wondered how to make that girl from Deipoll obediently obedient.

Looking at the densely packed tribe names on the map, Catherine said worriedly: "Lorraine, looking at it, I am afraid that you will encounter a lot of trouble in the prairie. The half-orcs are all soldiers when they are in a hurry. They are all cavalry. , So many tribes. I'm afraid it will take some effort to conquer them

Lorraine shrugged and said, "If it's simple, we won't be able to do it."

However, I have Vera, and Lorraine said proudly.

Naturally, Lorraine couldn't hide his mind from Vera. Thinking that as long as she goes out to work, she can earn money, Vera smiled sweetly at Lorraine. The big eyes are all bent into crescent shapes. Naturally, the more gold coins, the better.

Catherine resisted the pungent smell. After reading the map carefully, he straightened up and looked at Tikar who was standing next to him. He said softly: "Captain Tikar, you have worked hard all the way. Your heroic performance is a model for all Nian soldiers. We will reward you and you again. The empire never treats its heroes badly."

Volkal faced Catherine. The nervous one couldn't even speak well, so I respected one. Blushing and stammering: "Yes" Yes, Your Highness, this is what we should do

Catherine smiled, knowing that she and Adele were not suitable for appearing in front of these soldiers, and smiled slightly, preparing to take Adele and the others back.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the resting cavalry. Lorraine and Catherine turned their heads and looked over at the same time, and they saw Leo riding on Bai, surrounded by a group of orcs.

Catherine frowned, pinched her fingers, and said bitterly: "It's this ruffian again."

After that, he took the guards and walked to the crowd. Although Volkal had never seen Leo before, he also knew that the fat boy riding on the white elephant was the future supreme majesty of the empire, but after all, it was the future. In comparison, Lorraine's head boss was more important.

Leo didn't care about this either. When Lorraine and Volkal agreed, he urged Bai to walk into the cavalry crowd with curiosity.

Vocal knew Leo’s identity very well, and feared that his ignorant barbarians ran into Leo, he hurriedly said: "I’ll go and see

A vigorous step jumped out and ran towards Leo in a fast pace.

Lorraine saw the orcs jumping and screaming around Leo, but when they heard their voices, I forgot to yell, it seemed to be cheering, and the guards around Leo hung Jiezhu tightly with Ou. , But didn't pull out the weapon, knowing that there was nothing wrong, maybe Leo had some demon moth coming out, and Catherine's hand would inevitably be another good meal.

Lorraine pulled an angry Catherine's arm and walked in front of Catherine.

Before they were there, Lorraine and the others were surprised to see that the orcs surrounding Leo suddenly knelt down. Then he squatted down on the ground, muttering words, and worshipped Leo.

Lorraine and Catherine looked at each other in surprise, walked quickly to Leo and asked: "Leo, what's the matter?"

Leo looked at the half-orcs, patronizing and happy. He also couldn't understand Orc language. Scratching the back of his head, he said with a cocky face: "How do I know, maybe they see me handsome and handsome. Yushu is facing the wind, and the tiger's body is shocked, so domineering people will worship my power. "

Catherine walked up to him and put a hand over Leo's ears. Said: "Wow you a big-headed ghost. It won't work without looking at you for a while."

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts." Leo barked his teeth and yelled, "They want to worship. I just walked over and took a look. They gathered around to look around, and started to worship."

The human cavalry were also confused, standing behind the orcs watching the excitement.

Tekal hurriedly picked up the orcs around him and asked for a few words. Lorraine listened to Volkal's hurried orc conversation with them, and the more he spoke, the more surprised Volkal's expression became.

Letting go of the half-orcs, Tikar opened his mouth and stayed for a while, watching Lorraine looking at him in a hurry, Volkal said quickly: "My lord, these half-orcs. Said that elephants are the holy artifacts of their tribe and possess a holy The elephants are in the prophecy of their tribe’s shaman"

"What's in the prophecy?" Lorraine and Catherine both looked at Volkal, and saw him staggering, Lorraine asked.

Volkar said: "The prophetic son of God will unify the chieftain of the grassland."

Lorraine and Catherine looked at each other in surprise, and then both looked at Leo with an arrogant expression. Lorraine rolled his eyes and said with a playful expression: "Yes, let them all get up. These half-orcs. They are quite good at flattering."

Catherine was stunned for a moment, then let go of her hand holding Leo's ear, and she fixed Leo's clothes. Said softly: "Okay, let's go back after the party. Lorraine, let's go."

Leo was frightened by Catherine's sudden gentleness, and nodded stupidly.

Lorraine Lala Vokar whispered: "Is the shaman of their tribe famous?.

Volkal thought for a while and said: "It is said to be one of the two great prophets of the steppe

Catherine hugged Lorraine's arm and said, "Go back."

Leading Lorraine to the camp, Lorrain rubbed his chin and turned his mind.

After a rest night, Lorraine took Volkal and his team straight to the city of Crony. The informant had already traveled to Crony city earlier to convey Lorraine's order to prepare for the celebration.

After a day of walking slowly and quickly, when Cronney was less than fifty miles away, General Larry led a group of civil and military officials left behind to greet him.

After meeting Lorraine and Lorraine, they hugged Vocal in excitement, and said repeatedly, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back. You guy, you are so bold. Why are you running so far? I'm old. From now on, you will be in your world. Up."

Vocal smiled embarrassedly at his senior superior.

General Larry slapped Carl's shoulders boldly, and said: "Go, into the city."

At the gate of Colony, Lorraine and General Larry's team stopped and gave the road to Volkal and his cavalry.

Taikar said in surprise: "My lord. What are you?.

Lorraine pointed to the crowd crowded on both sides of the street inside the city gate, and said to Teckar: "This is your moment."

General Larry pushed Vocal and said, "Go, let's go to another city gate and celebrate you in the city."

Taikar was startled for a while. Then he clashed his heels, saluted the army, and said loudly, "Yes."

Then he waved back and shouted: "Brothers, come with me."

Lorraine returned to Catherine and their carriage, hearing the tsunami-like cheers coming from the city.

Lorraine stabbed Lorraine, wondering: "Why are you back again? Not with them

Lorraine smiled and said, "The triumph I want is not yet in time."

"Na," Na"

In the imperial capital far away from Naian province, the great city of flying eagles. In that magnificent palace, there was a sudden shout.

An old man with luxurious clothes and a golden crown was full of anger, looking at the middle-aged man across from the table in front of him. Said: "This is his mother how to answer"

Although the old man's face was a bit old, his sideburns were already slightly pale. But that appearance, that expression, that between hands and feet. But it is seven points similar to Leo.

Coupled with the dazzling and huge diamond ring that he was wearing, you know that the diamond ring was once worn in Lorraine's hand, but was pitted by this old guy.

This is also one of the few humiliation incidents where Lord Lorraine was cheated.

The old man is exactly the emperor of the empire, Julund. At this moment he was waving his fist angrily, shouting angrily: "Why is there no

We fought these battles, if you say that the gang of puppies in the north have nothing to do. First, the war will be defeated, but there is no money but it is excusable. "

Having said this, he swept away from the corner of his eyes, and saw the embarrassment of the red-dressed man sitting next to him, and suddenly realized his gaffe.

Under Russellsian's dedication, the empire cost a lot this time. Although the northern crusades sent by the army did not suffer heavy losses like the last time, they returned without success.

If this were in the past, it would be nothing. But fight the orcs with Lorraine in the south and divide the fields. The trouble is booming, compared to that, it's far worse.

But Russell was also his own Minister Xi after all, no matter how bad this matter was, after all, the barbarians in the north were also a big problem, and someone had to do it, and he came forward. Regardless of it. The honor and disgrace of the people were borne. I have to take care of his face.

Julunde thought of this, took a deep breath, and calmed down as much as possible.

Following the emperor's order, I was sitting at a large table and held that all the ministers in front of the imperial court were able to get a tattoo today, and none of them were the old fried dough sticks tested by Erchuan Jing.

They were keenly aware of this situation and exchanged glances.

Lal, the Minister of the Imperial Judicial Inspection Department, who is in charge of inspecting officials, glanced down at the folder in his hand.

Although he could not see through with the naked eye, he knew clearly that it was at the bottom of the folder. There is an accountability report on the defeat of the Northern Warlords. He looked at the people, then calmly reached out and pulled it out of the folder again, intending to change the report again. Describe the responsibility of the phase lightly, and then pass it on.

The rest of the people sitting also have their own thoughts.

But now they all looked at the middle-aged man who was suffering from Julund's anger with gleeful eyes.

The middle-aged man had a pale and ruddy complexion, even though he was facing Julund's roar, he did not change his color at all. It was the Lord of Wealth of the Empire, Baron Rokund, the Undersecretary of Finance.

At this time, Gelende settled down, then squeezed his voice from his teeth, and said: "Rokund, now we are spreading a thousand miles in the south. I heard that the sign of selling land was just played out. There are more people going there than there are mice in the world, right?"

Rokund gracefully stood up, bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Ju Lender thumped the table hard. Angrily roared: "If this is the case, then why do I still have no money? Where did all the money go? Could it be that you **** swallowed me?"

Under his anger, his saliva flew wildly for a while, even though Rokund was not standing close, he was sprayed with a lot of spit.

It's no wonder that he was so angry, because the empire has redundant officials and staff over the years, although it is known as institutional reforms, reducing staff and increasing efficiency, the number of officials has been decreasing.

Many chickens do not lay eggs, and many people do not work. "This is a universal truth. Even the old woman who has lost her teeth in the countryside knows it.

Naturally, that efficiency is getting more and more delayed.

After these guys become officials, although they may not know whether they are working or not, as long as they are an official, they all need food. And they have to eat much better than ordinary people. Let alone a bus. Public money for food and drink, public money travel and the like.

Where does this money come from?

Of course it won't fall from the sky, and it won't be picked up little by little from the people.

But the common people have been deceived a lot over the years, and they are not stupid. Things like "smashing against the barbarians, showing the might of the empire", "the eagle flag of the empire, invincible", they simply cannot deceive them.

These guys dare to evade tax even if they are facing the tax officer who is known as the "heavy power".

Among other things, Lord Lorraine’s Fort Lorraine was also to pay less tax. It was the same as when the Eighth Route Army guerrillas attacked the radishes. It also destroyed the traffic on the highway and engaged in tunnels. It was to block the windows again, all that was left was that they hadn't buried mines and hit their black guns.

The ranks of imperial officials here have been swelling like balloons. Those puppies not only stuffed their sons and grandsons into the ranks of imperial officials, but even their mistresses, mistresses, third uncles, second aunts and so on. All stuffed in.

The number of officials has been increasing, but the tax collection over there has not been able to collect.

Therefore, many officials live in a hurry. Except for those with real power, you can get two sums of money during the holidays. The rest of the people's life is not too easy.

Although His Majesty the Emperor is known as the Lord of a country. A rich world. But under the strict bureaucracy of the empire. He can't just reach out and take money from the treasury.

Thinking that Jia Baoyu’s ancestor had his birthday, His Majesty the Emperor also gave a few gold pieces. Make a gift. That thing is much less than the gift given by an ordinary official. This is simply a beggar.

If you take it out for another person, you will be embarrassed to greet someone on the walkway.

Why?

Think he is really so shabby?

I'm really poor

In the seventeenth century, France was also known as the number one power after a generation of strong man Cardinal Richelieu's iron fist, but the great sun king. In the time of Louis XIV, the sheets were changed only once a month.

why?

Of course it's the same reason, no

The situation of Emperor Julende was a little better than those of the others. But it's not much different.

One of his personal income came from the emperor’s private estates, and the other came from the empire’s annual fixed financial appropriations.

The empire’s finances are tight. His day. Of course it was not very good. Each meal only eats four dishes, plus some desserts and snacks.

Although he doesn't lack anything personally. But it does not mean that he is really rich. Even he has to save private money.

In general, if you want to give your mistress something like a gift, it will take some time to send it.

And now, I heard that Lorraine was doing a lot of trouble in the south, selling land and running a company or something. As long as it's a surprise. People, if you think about it for a moment, don't you know that their economy is so prosperous. Of course, it makes a lot of money, and all the fat is fat.

In the thoughts of Emperor Julende. With the prosperity of the economy, the taxes of the empire also increased. Then my own year will naturally be much more relaxed, and I can also spend money openly and take revenge on the days when I had no money.

When his old man was happy, he also bought a lot of good things with his mistresses.

It looks like a diamond with eight stars and eight arrows from South Africa. Produced by Serris, the mysterious country of the East. Silk is smoother and softer than suet, fine porcelain,

What kind of coax. The mistresses were all happily, and worked hard to let Uncle Ru enjoy it.

But only promised. It won't work if it is not realized.

People are waiting anxiously over there. It has been urged several times. It didn't make me look good anymore, and I found the courage on my side so I wanted to get some money over to please others.

But that's it. The **** actually said there was no money?

After working with migrant workers for a year, I finally looked forward to the hard-earned money at the end of the year, so that I could take it back to support the family and pay the tuition for the cubs in the family. As a result, that damned black-hearted foreman. The volume is gone.

Who is it, who suffers?

Emperor Julende is also a human, although his temper has been eroded by those old fritters in the officialdom over the years. But this time. I couldn't sit still anymore, like a cat with its tail stomped on, getting angry.

In his anger, he slapped the table in front of him with a loud bang, and shouted angrily: "Say. Tell me. Can’t tell, believe it or not, I’ll push you out now and chop off my money, my Where does the money go"

The officials sitting next to him were a little pleased that Baron Rokund was deflated, and some even wanted to squeeze him down so that they could sit in that oily position.

At this time, seeing the emperor Thunder, everyone was scared to speak out. Quietly lowered his head. I was afraid that the old guy turned his head and saw him, and sprinkled the evil fire on him.

"Your Majesty. Rong Jin." Rokund bowed his body.

He took out his handkerchief calmly. Gently wiped the saliva stars on his face, and then continued: "This is how things are."

He looked around at the people sitting there, and said: "Last year Nian made an orc invasion again. As a result, Governor Lorraine led the Imperial regiment. The enemy was completely crushed.

Rulunde waved his hand and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, we all know these things. It is said that in the tavern, there are a lot of flowers, copper plates, and you can listen to the bards singing seven verses. You don't need to say more. You tell me the point, why am I still out of money?"

Rokund didn't care and smiled. Then he said: "Your Majesty, this is what I'm talking about. But I have to start from the beginning before you can understand."

Julunde was softened by him. Surprisingly, Dan was not angry. Instead, he snorted for a long time. Then he sat back and said in a hateful itchy voice: "Okay, you say it!"

Rokund coughed slightly, then looked at the people sitting there, and said loudly, "You guys have to listen clearly.

Before Lorraine took office, Nyan had always been a poor province with little tax revenue. Sometimes, imperial financial subsidies are required.

Everyone knows this? "

The imperial ministers in the audience looked at each other, and then nodded and said yes.

Julunde looked at him blankly and said, "You tell me why there is no money?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Rokund nodded, and then continued: "After that. The Orcs invaded on a large scale, and Nian called for help urgently. The Grand Duke Julian dispatched a legion to reinforce. I don't need me for this. Elaborate?"

Ju Lund nodded and said, "Yes, I know about this."

Rokunde said: "But, Your Majesty, the Grand Duke bought a lot of warships from Ban Ye Danlin. These are all extra-budgetary expenditures. Therefore, his finances are very strained." Ru Lunde took the shot. In the thigh, he was a little bit happy and said: "Ha, I knew it. If that guy doesn't have Nicole's help, he must be unable to fill the hole. Live"

After he finished speaking, he saw the dumbfounding glances from everyone nearby, and suddenly realized something was wrong, and hurriedly turned his face back. Coughed lightly. Said: "You continue, you continue."

Rokund continued: "Your Majesty, you should know. When the Grand Duke sent troops. Because he was tight. But he extorted a lot of money from Nian."

Julunde was stagnant.

Rokund didn't care about him, and continued: "Later, although this battle was won. But the wounds of the war still need to be healed. Soldiers' pensions and rewards must not be less, right? These are a lot of money."

Julund was silent for a moment.

Rokund said: "And within Nian'an. Those houses, farmland, water conservancy facilities that were burned down by half-orcs. All these need to be repaired, right?"

Rokund paused, watching Julunde no longer speak, and continued: "And when those half-orcs attacked the city of Neidel, Catherine gave an order to release the flood and wipe out the half-orcs under the city in one fell swoop."

Julund listened. Right now, he was excited and said: "Yes, Nicole is truly a member of our family. This trick is really amazing.

Annihilate the enemy without a single soldier. It's really a bit of talking and laughing and using soldiers, and it means nothing. What does that sentence mean? "What's in. What's out of

Russell reminded in a low voice next to him: "Your Majesty, we are strategizing and decisively winning thousands of kilometers away.

Julunde clapped his hands and said, "Yes, that's how it is. "What kind of "things are there."

Russell grinned. Leave him alone.

Rulunde said: "Nicole's hand is really beautiful, I am happy for her."

Rokund wrinkled his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, don't just be happy. That big flood. The farmland on both sides of the strait was destroyed. This alone is a lot of money."

After hearing this, Julund rubbed his forehead. I felt a faint pain in a tendon in my head.

At this time, Rokund's tone changed and said, "However, even if this is the case, I read the report that Lorraine handed over. Through the sale of the land, not only can it be completely filled, but it is more than enough."

Julunde grinned, patted the table, and said, "How, how? I had expected it.

That money"

Speaking of later, his expression changed again, and he looked at Rokunde sternly.

Rokund spread his hands~lightnovelpub.net~ and said: "Your Majesty. Don't worry. This money, this money"

Julunde saw him hesitating. He was very anxious and asked: "What's wrong with this money?"

Rokund smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you are late to pay this money."

Ju Lund suddenly furious, and said: "Who, who dares to steal money from me? It's really impatient to live. Lao Luo. Don't be afraid. Speak out. Who dares to be so bold. Even my money dares. grab,"

When he said this, he suddenly woke up. The voice dropped suddenly. Just pointed his finger to the east.

Rokund nodded softly and said, "Yes, your majesty."

Julund was speechless. The one in the east is his brother no matter what, what can he do with that guy?

Russell coughed slightly at this time, and turned to ask Rokunde: "My dear vice president of finance, according to the rules of the empire, this money should not be transferred to the Ministry of Finance and then unified by the Ministry of Finance. Did it go down? How could people be cut off in the middle? Your work is too irresponsible, right?” (to be continued)
