Red Blood Dragon Knight

Erxuns is reporting the flood damage to Catherine and Adele? Rear. Grinning grinningly, he said: "Our government has no money.

This made Catherine and Adele both stunned, and said to their hearts: Why are there no money?

Catherine and Adele have been in charge of Nian's government affairs recently. After a little thought, they came to realize that they are indeed out of money. To be precise, the government in their hands is indeed out of money.

Speaking of which, in the Ruman Empire, Nai An can be regarded as a moderately rich province.

Naian has a population of 3 million, mostly farmers. The Beni River is in an excellent location with abundant water and gentle water conditions. It is a veritable golden waterway. The entire basin is fertile and gentle, and it is truly a thousand miles of fertile land.

Known as the granary in the southern part of the empire, most of the food supply in the eastern provinces comes from Naian Province.

Not only that, although the mountainous area in the north of Naian has inconvenient transportation and rugged terrain, it is rich in products and numerous mines.

Nydal City has a population of 300,000. In this era, the capital of many small countries has a large scale of industry and commerce. There are a large number of dwarves and elf craftsmen who manufacture and export a wide range of handicrafts and contribute a lot of taxes.

Nian’s annual taxes paid to Ruman City amounted to more than three million gold coins, not including the rations shipped to Constantine each year.

Counting it down, Nai An Province is not poor at all.

When Lorraine was appointed by the emperor as Governor of Nyan, many people were jealous of him. In the position of Governor of Nyan, making money is a breeze, and it doesn’t have to be the same as the governors of the northern provinces in the cold regions. , You have to squeeze money out like oil.

If Lorraine and Catherine had the support of the emperor and were willing to spend a lot of money to clear them, it would not be easy for Lorraine to get this position. Other than that, half of the heraldry were opposed. Let Lorraine wait three more months.

Otherwise, the distinguished Marquis of Marleyton would not be accused of governor Nyan after he made meritorious service on the northern line.

And Lorraine didn't let everyone down either, it was a blessing to pick up money in Nian'an, and his reputation had long been passed back to Ruman City.

The jealous return is jealous, with the tacit approval of the emperor and the public support of the Grand Duke Julian. When Lorraine was holding money, he always let Leo take the lead. No matter how jealous he was, he still had to think about it. That is the future emperor. After waiting for a few years, this little kid who is ravaged by a few women all day. , Sat down on the supreme chair in Ruman City, thinking of who and who robbed my business back then, "I killed him".

In general, Nai An is not only endless, but also a rich man.

The only problem is that half-orcs are harassed every year. The dwarves and elves in the ravines also play anti-tax performance art in front of the Governor’s Mansion from time to time.

But the half-orcs were only harassment in previous years. The problem is not big. It is enough to mobilize the army of the province to go to the Throne of God Seal and carefully deploy defenses. If it is not for merits, but for no fault, it is not very troublesome.

It can only be said that Lorraine is relatively moldy, and when he took office, he encountered an attack by the half-orcs that had not been met for hundreds of years.

Large-scale mobilization, mobilization of the province’s army, militias, storage and transportation of food and materials sufficient to support the 50,000 troops fighting for half a year, expenditure of military salaries and combat subsidies, rescue and compensation costs, all of which are expensive. As the saying goes, when the cannon is fired, gold is ten thousand taels.

The gold coins and materials stored in Nian's vault and warehouse are like hourglasses, with the degree of visibility reduced little by little until they slowly bottom out.

Although Emperor Julende generously awarded Lorraine a special fund of one million gold coins every year. But the money has already been spent by Lorraine. The money was not for Lorraine himself. The "Land Reward Order" alone cost a lot of money.

Moreover, everyone knows that all administrative units have a practice before the end of the year, which is to spend money on surprise and consume budget.

The office was renovated, and 14 months of salary and bonuses were given to the employees, and some subsidies for horses and horses, heating, cooling, etc., dig a trench and fill it in. Then dig again. Fill in the stuff again.

The reason is simple. The appropriation for the next year is based on the spending this year. The money broadcast this year has not been spent. Doesn't it mean that your unit does not need so much appropriation? The superior will be happy to cut it off. Your allocation for next year.

Lorraine faced the same situation. How the money was spent was his business, but he also had to repay Russell in Ruman City. Russell had one eye on Lorraine.

Therefore, Lorraine had already spent the 1 million earmarked funds before the end of the year. Not only Lorraine, but the new year is coming soon. All the institutions that spent public money in Quannai’an have already completed their targets for the year and have a slight deficit.

What's more, Grand Duke Julian didn't feel ashamed to ask his son-in-law to ask for money, so he slapped Lorraine a large sum of money, which of course was also incorporated into the finances.

In this way, Lorraine has no money, and the government has no money.

Dozens of villages and small towns need to be rebuilt, more than 100,000 mu of land will be cultivated, and 50,000 people will be able to eat, wear, and shelter for half a year. These are not a small sum. Without this war, Nyan Can withstand it.

But this battle has defeated Nian.

Angus scratched his sparse head, and said in distress, "What can I do? Otherwise, Your Highness, let Ru Mancheng allocate some money."

When Catherine heard it, her face turned black. With a stern face, he snorted and said, "Don't even think about it. I won't beg that old **** Russell.

Angus saw that he had touched Catherine's head, and immediately became speechless.

Catherine frowned, thought for a moment, Kang... The lofty and arrogant spleen, naturally, would not consider asking Ruduocheng for assistance...

And the Grand Duke Julian didn’t even think about it. Due to Russell’s elbow, the finances of the Eastern provinces had been insufficient. The Grand Duke bought the captured Almohad battleship from Ban Ye Danlin and had already spent all his remaining money. He has been asking for money from Catherine and Leo, otherwise he wouldn't slap Lorraine for a payment.

Catherine thought for a while, and finally took a look at Adele, leaned over to Adele, and the two discussed a few words in a low voice, only to see Adele froze for a moment, then nodded readily and said. OK, you can figure it out

Catherine sat up straight and said to Angus sternly, "Well, since our government has no money now, and your governor is not here, I and Dai Er will advance with our own money."

Angus was shocked to jump up from his chair, waved his hand and said anxiously: "How about it, why don't I think of a way, it's okay to make a donation from the whole province?

"Doing donations?" Adele sneered and said, "Let's pull it down, it's not thirty-two thousand, and we don't know the virtues of those people that this is Nedel City. Five or six thousand is good. The effort is not pleased"

Angus thought for a while, and said: "We can start with civil servants and deduct one month's salary as a donation. I think the following people will definitely agree.

Catherine and Adele looked at each other. Then he laughed at the same time.

Adele shook her head and said, "Forget it, this will offend the people below.

High-level officials do not live by salary, but their monthly salary is not much.

The staff at the lower levels are relying on these two gold coins to support their families. Asking them to take them out will only intensify their efforts and then fall on the people. For tens of thousands of gold coins. It is best to get up and down unsatisfied, and the people will feel resentful again. The gain is not worth the loss.

And this opened up a bad head, and Lorraine's road is still there. We can't lose this bad reputation. "

Seeing what Adele said, Angus nodded convincingly, saying, this is the real helper, why Lorraine is so good for life! Angus said: "Or. I will think of a way. How can we use the private money of the two young ladies for official business, and this has to be passed out. Doesn't it seem that we Naian people are incompetent?

Catherine poked her lips in disdain, and said: "Money can't grow from the ground, what else can you do?

Besides, I just paid in advance, not in vain. I will pay it back to us when the finances are ample next year or the next year.

Angus thought for a while, this is the easiest way at present, tens of thousands of people are waiting to eat and live. There is no time delay, and high-level officials like Angus know more or less that the women in Lorraine are billionaires, even Vera's nominal little maid. It also owns a large corporate group.

Angus bowed deeply at Catherine and Adele, and solemnly said: "I will replace the Neders and all the Nyans who have lost their homes, and thank Her Royal Highness and Miss Adele for their kindness. No Lord Lorraine and you, we Naian don’t know what kind of suffering we will go through this time.

Imagine that Lorraine fought a hard battle just after taking office. Catherine and Adele sighed together. Catherine said: "Don't thank us. After all, we are also a member of the Nian people."

At this time, the people in the study were pushed away with a scream, Leo ran in with his short legs, and yelled before entering the door: "Old sister, old sister.

Melina yelled "Leo, wait for me" from behind. He panted thinly while holding the skirt corners, and ran in in small steps.

Leo rushed straight to Catherine's desk, jumped forward, and lay his upper body on Catherine's desk, blinking his **** and white eyes with two hands against his fat head, looking at Catherine pitifully.

Catherine stroked her smooth forehead, then raised her head and glared at Leo, and said, "How many times have I told you, don’t jump up and down like a monkey

Leo stunned his little head indifferently, and said, "Don't talk about that first."

Then he blinked his big eyes vigorously, and said sweetly: "Sister, can I bring back a sandwich bread from outside?"

Catherine became wary. Xiu stared at Leo wide. Anxiously said: "What is your wrong idea? Speak clearly, what bread?

Leo said: "It's the kind of large-sized bread with meat. The ingredients are very special, I haven't seen it before, so I want to bring it back.

Catherine looked at Leo suspiciously. This little ruffian had a lot of knowledge before, and she couldn't believe it. Catherine turned to look at Melina and asked, "Melena, is Leo talking about this?"

Melina lowered her head, "Well, the little "this one" talked for a long time, but she didn't say a word clearly.

Leo jumped off the table, and looked at Melina with that cute look that would kill all loving women. Melina hesitated, and finally mustered up the courage, and said, "It's the same thing."

Adele also looked at the pair of little men and women in confusion, but thought that Melina was always sensible. People don't think much about it.

Catherine gave an "Oh". Road: In this case, you can do it whatever you want, really, come and ask me about bread

Leo cheered and jumped up and said loudly, "That is your agreement. Don't regret it, otherwise you adults will set a bad example and you will teach me and Melina.

Catherine pursed her lips and said, "Cut, you've learned from Lorraine a long time ago. I don't even bother to say that you are bad guys, one big and one small

Lei Yao, laughed "haha" in the middle of the study, and said to Melina...Have you said that, it's okay, you have to have to ask me to come back and ask them

Melina kept her head down as if she had done something wrong.

Leo-La Melina said: "Let's go. Let's go, hurry up and bring it back."

Catherine shook her head. She had already lost her mind to Leo's current temper. No matter how well she taught, she couldn't hold back the power of Lorraine as a bad example.

Catherine turned to Angus and said, "Then you will bring someone over tomorrow. We will give you the money."

"What money? Leo, who was about to go out, turned around and swayed back.

Adele sees Leo being extremely sensitive when she hears the word "money". Leaning up, he smiled: "You really have three tempers with Lorraine, and you can’t walk when you hear money.

Lei Cui scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Don't you praise me like that, I'm still a little short of the realm of the boss."

Adele looked at Leo speechlessly, but also slapped her forehead helplessly.

Leoso took Melina and sat down again. Staring at Catherine: "What money?,

I know I won’t let this little ruffian figure it out today. He will not give up. Catherine had to repeat what had just happened.

After listening, Leo rubbed his fat little chin and turned his eyeballs around a few times. Then he looked mature and said, "Sister, this is not what I want to say about you. If the boss is here, I will definitely not agree with you.

Catherine patted the table and shouted: "He dare, so many people are waiting for dinner, where are we going to get the money."

Leo shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about this. Since these people sacrificed their homes for us, we should save them. Not only should we save the little ones, we have to compensate them, and commend them for giving up the individual to the greater. The good quality of the people of the country regardless of personal sacrifices. Oh, although it is not voluntary, their contributions cannot be denied.

Catherine and Adele looked at Leo in a daze. They didn't expect that he could say such a thing now.

Angus couldn't help rubbing his eyes. He actually saw Lorraine's figure on Leo just now, and the expression and content of this speech seemed to be like a seven-point Lorraine.

Catherine thought to herself: Is it possible that this stupid brother finally grew up, so he could speak the shameless words that an experienced politician could only say without a heartbeat.

Catherine said softly: "Then talk about your opinion, why should you reward them."

Leo said with a treacherous smile: "In this way, next time we go to collect their things, rob them of their land, cheat them for money, and when they demolish them, not only will these people not object, they might even get two bunches of flowers. Welcome us by the roadside.

Angus fainted on the ground without a breath. I can only shout in my heart: Is the future of this empire bright or dark?

Adele was holding up a cup to drink water. Hearing Leo’s high comments, a sip of water spurted out, and then she coughed vigorously with her chest in her hand. Melina hurriedly ran to her and beat Adele back. .

Catherine leaned heavily back on the chair, looked at Leo who was smug, gritted her teeth and said, "Lorraine, I can't spare you."

Leo said in confusion, "What does this have to do with the boss? No matter what"

"So, we have to reward these people greatly, but we can't give cash, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that there will be false reports and defrauding money in the future. The best way is to exempt them from taxes for one or two years. In this way, it is tantamount to a generous government. We don’t need to spend money, and do things beautifully. Anyway, the tax is finally turned over to Russell and handed over to him in vain. It is better to intercept the roots in disguise. This is almost a killer shot. Sculpture?"

Leo put his hands on his chest and said narcissistically, "Well, I can come up with such a method, I admire myself too much."

Angus wondered if he wanted to flee the study room now. If he watched Leo wave it again, Catherine would kill him for the royal reputation.

Catherine grabbed the paper ball at hand and threw it at Leo. Angrily said: "You give me almost a little."

After Leo suffered a bit, he still mumbled life and death: "Look, you women are prudent and you can't see others smarter than you. If you are wrong, you still don't recognize it.

Seeing Catherine slapped the table and wanted to stand up, Leo shrank his neck and waved his hand quickly: "Talk about business, UU reading www.uukanshu.com talk about business, why are you in a hurry?" Old!

Seeing Catherine sitting back with a stern face, Leo said sternly: "Old sister. Sister Delir, you two are going to take out 200,000 yuan each. This is very good. Let's publicize and let those people tell you. Thanks to Dade, in the words of the boss, let them build a shrine for you two.

And I guess it won’t cost so much after the reconstruction?

The problem is, you hand the money to the people below. Is four hundred thousand enough? "

Meilinna said curiously: "Leo, don't you say that you can't use 400,000? Why is it not enough?"

Leo shook his head solemnly, and said: "You don't understand, you don't know the virtues of the following small officials. The relief fund is a piece of fat. As long as the person who handles it is an individual, he will have a bite on the relief fund. Yes. Especially, this is the money that Nicole and Dai Er paid privately, but in the end it will be reported back to the public account, which is even better

Catherine, Adele, and Angus were stunned, the three adults looked at each other, and finally nodded each other with solemn expressions.

Leo got the point.
