Beast Summoner

"Your Majesty, you can't do it! You absolutely can't do it!" Just as Li Zhenbang finished speaking, Zhang Jinhui hurriedly ran out of the team and shouted loudly.

Others may not know the financial revenue and expenditure of the Carlo Empire, but he, the Finance Minister of the Carlo Empire, knows all about it.

Although Zhang Jinhui's life style is not very good, he is at least honest and honest at work. Especially for his sensitivity to numbers and his dedication to work, he is remarkable, otherwise he would not

I may stay in this position for more than 20 years.

Although the income and expenditure of Carlo Empire are huge and complicated, the entry and destination of every money are engraved in Zhang Jinhui's head.

In recent years, there have been too many natural disasters in the country, either severe drought in the east and floods in the west, or severe drought in the south and floods in the north. There was even a place where there was a severe drought, and then suddenly it rained heavily, and many people drowned.

There were also monsters that appeared inexplicably in some places, injuring many residents, and some more casualties occurred when troops were dispatched to arrest them.

In places where disasters occur, especially natural disasters, in order to reduce the living pressure of local residents, taxes are often reduced or reduced, and disaster relief subsidies are even provided.

The border areas are not peaceful either. Although there are no major military operations, there are obviously more minor frictions than before. Pensions for casualty soldiers are also a big investment, especially for injured soldiers. The cost of treatment may even be higher than the cost of death.

The pension is even more.

The expenses in the palace, the maintenance and repair of the buildings, the rewards from the ministers, etc., all the expenses added up are a huge expense.

The national treasury is already very empty. In the past few years, the country's fiscal year has been in deficit. If it had not been for a certain amount of savings before, I am afraid that it would have to rely on selling antiques and treasures from the national treasury to maintain the operation of the country.

The military expenditures in arrears in the past few years and this year's military expenditures total 10.735265424 gold coins. If Zhao Tianlong really allocates them all at once and distributes them, then the rest

It’s not just that the place is stretched thin, it’s very likely that the pot won’t be opened.

Especially in places where natural disasters occur, if there is no proper rescue and resettlement, it is very likely that corpses will be everywhere and the plague will be rampant. There may even be tragedies of cannibalism. It is not impossible that it will eventually turn into a civil commotion.

of.

That's why Zhang Jinhui ran out desperately to dissuade Zhao Tianlong. He didn't want the funds that could barely maintain order to be thrown into chaos in the end, causing chaos in the entire country.

As Li Zhenbang said, compared with maintaining the stability of the country, a small undead summoned beast is absolutely insignificant.

Zhang Jinhui didn't want Zhao Tianlong to act out of anger. He was joking at the expense of the entire country's foundation, and this joke couldn't be taken lightly, not even by Zhao Tianlong.

Seeing Zhang Jinhui blocking him, Zhao Tianlong frowned. Zhang Jinhui said no at this time, which was obviously against him. Could it be that he, the Minister of Finance, was just impatient?

Seeing Zhang Jinhui, Li Zhenbang's feeling was completely different from that of Zhao Tianlong. He even hoped that Zhang Jinhui could persuade Zhao Tianlong to stop.

In fact, Li Zhenbang did not mention the matter of military expenditures casually, but decided after careful consideration. He thought that raising the matter of military expenditures would make Zhao Tianlong retreat, but unexpectedly, it inspired Zhao Tianlong's competitive spirit and fighting spirit.

In Li Zhenbang's mind, what Zhao Tianlong did was more exciting than playing with the princes in a beacon fire. The purpose of playing with the princes in a beacon fire was to make the beauty smile. At the most extreme, it means loving the beauty but not the country, at the worst it is called sentimentality.

But Zhao Tianlong actually wanted to bet the fate of the entire country for the sake of a so-called face, and it was a face that could not be touched even by eight poles. This was simply nonsense.

You must know that the fact that Li Zhenbang has summoned the undead beast has nothing to do with Zhao Tianlong. Even if someone pursues it, all the responsibility can be pushed to Li Zhenbang.

Or whoever suggested it, let him make a summoned beast of the undead for fun. Of course, the premise is that he has Li Zhenbang's abilities and abilities.

"Your Majesty, I know it is very inappropriate to come out to oppose now." Zhang Jinhui knelt on the ground, his forehead pressed tightly to the ground, his body trembling slightly, not sure whether he was nervous or afraid.

After hearing Zhang Jinhui's words, Zhao Tianlong's expression softened slightly and he said nothing, continuing to wait for Zhang Jinhui's next words.

Since this Zhang Jinhui dares to risk his life to speak out, he must have something to say, and there should be a reason for his current attitude that he has to say.

"I will die, but for the sake of the stability of the country and your Majesty's wisdom, I have to say it!"

"Your Majesty, you can't ignore countless people across the country just for the sake of temporary satisfaction! Nowadays, the country is not stable, especially with the continuous natural and man-made disasters in recent years. Because of Your Majesty's timely relief arrangements, the people have not been displaced, but

This kind of thing has not stopped, and a large amount of disaster relief funds are still needed to help."

"If this part of the funds is misappropriated, once another disaster occurs, there will be no way to provide timely relief. As the saying goes, the country is people-oriented, and food is the first priority for the people. When the people cannot eat, it will shake the foundation of the country.

!”

"If Your Majesty is compared to a blazing flame, then the people are the firewood. Firewood can help the fire and also extinguish it! Your Majesty, please think twice!" Zhang Jinhui's voice was trembling, showing his inner nervousness, but it was

It was very loud, proving that he was still very confident.

Hearing Zhang Jinhui's words, Li Zhenbang's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that this guy actually had some knowledge. Although it was not as vivid as the water that can carry and capsize a boat, he still had the vision and mind of a saint.

"It's true that the people cannot be moved, so just save them from other places!" Zhao Tianlong nodded, still agreeing with Zhang Jinhui's words.

After hearing Zhao Tianlong's words, Li Zhenbang also had some changes in his view of Zhao Tianlong. It is true that Zhao Tianlong is headstrong and ambitious, but his ability to accept the people-oriented concept proves that he is not stupid.

"Now that the funds of various departments have been reduced to the minimum, military expenditures will naturally be reduced within a certain range. If we compress other departments at this time and then supplement military expenditures, let alone whether all military expenditures can be reached, I am afraid that other departments will be

I can no longer work with peace of mind.”

"Today we need military expenditures, and other departments are reduced. Tomorrow they need repairs, and then other departments are reduced. If things continue like this, people will be panicked. In the end, they will have to spend money from their own pockets to subsidize other departments? Are the people in other departments

Don’t you need to support your family anymore?”

"You have worked so hard for the country. Not only can you not make any money, but you have to borrow money from it. In the end, it is inevitable... Never use money to test human nature. Please think twice!" What Zhang Jinhui originally wanted to say was that there would inevitably be complaints.

He would even do things he shouldn't do for money, but Zhang Jinhui stopped in time without saying anything.

Although Zhang Jinhui didn't say it explicitly, his words were a bit heartbreaking.

At this time, everyone's eyes were fixed on the Hong Maple Leaf family. Many people had bad intentions, some were gloating about the misfortune, and some wanted to add insult to injury. You must know that Li Zhenbang just cried for his family in public.

He said that his family had invested all the family money in order to pay the soldiers' wages.

Li Zhenbang originally admired Zhang Jinhui a little, but the more he heard these words, the more wrong he became. In the end, Zhang Jinhui turned him into his own family, which was not what he expected.

"Your Majesty, Master Zhang is indeed right. After putting all the money in, our family will inevitably end up eating bran-thick vegetables, or even going hungry. But we still insist on it, because we know that His Majesty, the sage, will not turn a blind eye.

Looking at his most loyal ministers who will always advance military expenses for him, he will definitely pay back every cent of the money." Li Zhenbang stood up hurriedly and took over Zhang Jinhui's words.

Li Zhenbang explained that what the family did was done for His Majesty and was not used to win people's hearts. The money was only lent to the country because of the country's temporary economic constraints. When the country has money, the money will still be there.

To be paid back.

"I heard that Mr. Zhang is the Minister of Finance and his family has always been rich. The money in the family has been spent for generations. But I have never heard of Mr. Zhang using family money to subsidize

Other departments!" Li Zhenbang passed the ball to Zhang Jinhui again.

Like Zhang Jinhui, both Li Zhenbang and Zhang Jinhui had their words behind the scenes. First of all, Zhang Jinhui's family had money, but he didn't say whether the money came from a legitimate source. Zhang Jinhui had never used his family's money to subsidize the country, so he had no idea whether he was a loyal minister or not.

explain.

Many times it is more heartbreaking not to say anything than to say it. Just like Zhang Jinhui said half of what he said just now, Li Zhenbang only said half of what he said, leaving the remaining half to the endless reveries of others.

What people like most is this kind of divergent thinking. What you give him is just a grain of rice, but he can think of a harvest autumn for you.

"Li Zhenbang, you..." Zhang Jinhui raised his head and glared at Li Zhenbang, but Li Zhenbang stared back without fear.

"Okay, let's stop arguing. I have made up my mind. Since I said it in front of so many people, I can't go back on my word." Zhao Tianlong interrupted Zhang Jinhui and Li Zhenbang and made a decision directly.

"Your Majesty, never..." Zhang Jinhui was already crying.

"Okay, I don't need to pay this money from the treasury, I will pay it myself!"

Zhao Tianlong's words can be said to be a blockbuster without even making a sound. Everyone was stunned because they saw that Zhao Tianlong had eleven more gold crystal cards in his hand...
