king.

Chapter 343 Planting the Thunder of Continental Unrest
After joining in the fun, there was nothing wrong with Hudson.Although he is also a mage on the surface, the moisture in it is too heavy.

Even if he has made up a series of magical knowledge, the learning time is still too short, and he has not had time to master it.

No matter how rare a leopard lays an egg, it is not as important as the letter in Hudson's hand.

The debt crisis of the Principality of Moxi was on the verge of breaking out. As an old friend, King George wrote to him to complain about his grievances.

There is no mention of money on the surface, but the information exposed between the lines is all caused by lack of money.

Writing to Hudson at this moment seems to be an exchange between old friends, but it is actually asking him for advice.

The idea of ​​issuing bonds was indeed proposed by Hudson, but while making the proposal, he also deliberately reminded the Moxie to pay attention to controlling the scale of debt.

It's a pity: debt is full of magic, once you embark on this road of no return, there is no possibility of turning back.

After the war, Hudson paid close attention to the situation in the Principality of Moxi, waiting for their debts to explode at any time.

Being able to delay the debt crisis until now by tearing down the east wall and repairing the west wall is enough to prove that George is a qualified "wall paster".

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the big nobles who participated in it eager to get out, they borrowed new and returned the old to the extreme, and Hudson had to say admiration.

It is a pity that no matter how much the debt crisis is delayed, the crisis will always exist and cannot disappear out of thin air.

Glancing at the person coming, Hudson sighed and said, "Viscount Raquel, I already understand what your king means. I don't have a perfect solution, but I do have a bad idea.

No matter how tight the finances are, it is definitely not advisable to directly announce that you have reneged on your debts.As long as your country still wants to hang out on the mainland, these debts cannot be repaid.

Just because your country is currently incapable of paying directly in cash does not mean that you are incapable of repaying debts in other ways.

For example: knowledge inheritance!

What can only be regarded as common sense among many big nobles, is a treasure that can be encountered but not sought after for the small nobles below.

What is happening now is just right for you to play.A large amount of debt was transferred to the small and medium nobles, which created maneuverability for you.

Instead of waiting for the creditors to come to collect debts after the debt thunderstorm, it is better to take the initiative to attack in advance.

As long as you figure out what the small and medium-sized nobles with large foreign debts need most now, you can prescribe the right medicine.

Anyway, knowledge is something like this, even if you copy a hundred or a thousand copies, the knowledge in your hands will still not change.

Theoretically speaking, as long as you sign a confidentiality contract with the creditors in advance, this kind of business can continue in secret.

But once this kind of transaction is leaked out, you will face big troubles, and I'm afraid you will offend many people by then! "

As soon as the words fell to the ground, Raquel was dumbfounded.This is not just an ordinary bad idea, it is simply an idea that can kill people.

The class in the continent of Aslant can be solidified, relying on the tacit understanding of the ruling class.Among them, everyone teamed up to block knowledge inheritance, which is the most important part.

If the monopoly on knowledge is broken, once an opportunity arises, the minor nobles below will have the possibility to rise.

Maybe the probability of going upstream is very low, but there are so many little nobles!As long as the base is large enough, there will always be lucky ones who stand out.

A large number of new players will join, which will inevitably increase the competition of the upper ruling group.

The consequences caused by this will not be a reshuffle of a certain region or a certain country, but a political reshuffle of the entire society.

As the instigator, he is bound to be hostile by the traditional ruling group.

"Marshal, the consequences of doing this are too great. Once the news gets out, the Principality can't bear it!"

Hudson nodded slightly, then shook his head.

"You're right, this matter is indeed very troublesome. But if the future troubles are minor, how can it be considered a bad idea?

The debts that your country owes one after another are at least tens of millions of gold coins, and they may exceed [-] million.

Such a huge sum of money, if you don't pay the price, how can you pay it back in a short time?

Repayment tax, you have tried to collect.It turns out that taxing repayments doesn't work in the face of huge debts.

The post-war reconstruction took up a lot of resources. Given the reality of the Principality of Moxi, it simply did not have the ability to repay its debts.

What you can do now is only two choices: either secretly pass on the knowledge to pay off the debt; or sell some special resources that can be mass-produced in private and are blocked by everyone tacitly.

No matter what choice is made, it is a challenge to the existing order.

In my opinion, the best option right now is to find a way to settle some creditors first, and then raise money to repay part of the debt.

Even if there are some outrageous behaviors, as long as you do a good job of keeping secrets, it will be difficult for the outside world to know what you have done!

You are afraid of being exposed, and those small and medium-sized nobles involved in the transaction are even more afraid of news leaking.At least until they rise, they will be kept strictly confidential.

Just relying on some rumors and some turmoil caused by it, I think your country can still handle it.

Even if it is finally exposed, it will be many years later. It is estimated that when you recover your vitality, and with the support of the kingdom, you are not afraid of someone coming to point fingers. "

Hudson explained so patiently, obviously not for volunteer work.As a new great aristocrat, the only way to achieve greater development is to break the current profit distribution pattern.

Looking at the development history of the mountainous territory, one can know that they are either farming or opening up wasteland. Life is hard work.

It's not that Hudson doesn't want to develop rapidly, it's that the interests have already been divided up by everyone. No matter where it reaches out, it will be resisted by vested interests.

If this situation continues, when the development of the swamp is completed, the mountainous territory will reach the peak of development, and there will be no further hope in sight.

Subconsciously, Hudson is not willing to be ordinary.From the moment he encouraged the Principality of Moxi to issue bonds, he knew that something would happen.

Whether the Mosi people choose to default on their debts or repay their debts in a way that breaks the hidden rules, it will eventually cause damage to the existing order.

"Marshal, you have successfully persuaded me. Unfortunately, the final decision-making power is not in my hands. It is still unknown what the principality will do next.

However, we will always remember your dedication to the principality.If there is any need that we can do, just ask for it! "

Raquel said gratefully.

This is not a polite word, but to really give something in return.As for the specific reward, it all depends on the next choice of the Principality of Moxi.

If Hudson's plan is adopted, compensation must be indispensable.In other words, it can also be called - hush money!

He didn't have time to care about these trivial matters. After sending Raquel away, Hudson was busy counting the accounts in the territory again.

At the end of the year, we have to do a work summary.The summary that was supposed to be done at the end of the year was dragged to April of the following year, together with the summary of the first quarter. The main reason was that I was too busy.

In the past year or so, many major events have taken place in the mountain territory: the massive immigrant, the lord's wedding, the establishment of the Warcraft breeding base...

"Count, without counting immigration expenses, last year's fiscal deficit was as high as 32 gold coins.

This year, the financial situation of the territory has not only failed to improve, but worsened further.In the first quarter alone, our fiscal deficit was as high as 13 gold coins.

If the compensation for territory replacement and resettlement expenses are added, the total deficit of last year plus the first quarter of this year will be as high as 200 million gold coins.

Fortunately, the land replacement compensation is a one-time payment. Now that the resettlement has been completed one after another, the subsequent expenses are mainly for infrastructure construction.

These expenses are not urgent, and can be gradually expanded in batches according to the actual situation.

The fiscal deficit worsened in the first quarter of this year, mainly because the profits of the iron and steel industry fell sharply. Compared with the same period last year, the monthly income of [-] gold coins was less.

The second is the formation of the Warcraft Legion. According to the agreement reached with all parties, we have allocated 36 Warcraft eggs.

Due to the lack of hatching means in the territory, we paid [-] gold coins for the hatching fee to the Magicians Association.

According to the training package given by the Mage Association, it is estimated that the next maintenance costs will cost at least [-] gold coins per month. (excluding labor and ripening agent costs)
Considering that there are still a large number of female beasts who are pregnant, in the following days, we will receive varying amounts of monster eggs or cubs every month, and the future expenses will be further increased.

According to the most optimistic estimate, we are expected to harvest [-] magical beast cubs this year, and the estimated new expenditure will be [-] to [-] gold coins.

The specifics still depend on the development and use of the drug.

According to the information we have, at present, the Kingdom Magician Association has only approved four special ripening potions for monsters, and one popular ripening potion.

Most of these research and development accounts are improvements to existing ripening agents, and strive to minimize costs and side effects.

In this regard, the major nobles of the kingdom have invested a lot, and all kinds of resources are tilted towards it. I believe that results will be produced soon.

The 36 monster eggs we obtained belong to eight kinds of monsters, and there will only be more types of monsters added in the future.If you want to form a Warcraft Legion, you must make a choice.

Considering that we have an agreement with the major nobles in the country to share the research and development results of the ripening potion for free, our best choice is to keep the Warcraft cubs approved by the Mage Association and sell all the remaining cubs.

At present, the warcraft legions of all parties are in the start-up stage, and it is the time when there is the most shortage of warcraft. At this moment, selling cubs will not worry about not being able to sell them for a good price! "

As the financial officer of the territory, Rudolph was also worried about the territory.The Warcraft Legion has just started, and he is trying to sell the Warcraft to reduce expenses and return funds.

It's not that he's making a fuss over a molehill, it's that the number of Warcraft cubs is on the rise.This situation will continue until the end of Maxim's estrus period, then it will gradually decrease, and finally stabilize at a fixed value.

An increase of [-] to [-] gold coins in military expenditures this year may increase several times next year.After all, the use of ripening agents is inevitable if one wants to be enlisted in service as soon as possible.

The best way is to control the types of monsters from the beginning, unify the logistics supply standards, and reduce costs through large-scale breeding.

"Don't worry, Sir Rudolph. Your lord still owes 250 six magical beast cubs outside, and most of the magical beast cubs this year will have to be used to pay off the debt.

There is no need to worry about the ripening potion, your master is a genius wizard.It may be difficult to research and develop independently. Is it possible to copy the formula and not make it? "

Hudson said calmly.

The cost of the mountain territory is high, and the amount is huge on paper.The compensation for the territory replacement was as high as 120 million gold coins, which sounded very scary, but in fact the cash paid was not much.

Even if the newly-emerged nobles, Hudson still has many resources that the little nobles are greedy for, such as: Warcraft cubs, life essence...

The current Hudson not only owed a lot of Warcraft cubs outside, but also owed a lot of life essence, and he even promised ripening potions in advance.

The compensation announced to the outside world is gold coins. When it comes to specific operations, everyone still chooses resources more.

Except for taking out dozens of doses of life essence on the spot, the rest of the resources are foreign debts.Creditors can wait at ease, and Hudson is even more worry-free.

Going in and out of the laboratory every now and then is not completely fruitless.According to the plagiarism of the craftsmanship recorded in the formula, Hudson still produced a lot of magic potions like life essence.

Even if the promised life essence is fully fulfilled, it is not a big problem.However, in order to reduce the impact, Hudson deliberately used the excuse of collecting raw materials to delay the delivery time.

After all, according to the unspoken rules of the kingdom, all major forces are restricting the flow of life essence in order to stabilize the social order.

As a stable nobleman, it's okay for Hudson to fool others into breaking the rules, but it's definitely out of the question for him to be the leader himself.

It just so happens that everyone is not in a hurry to use it immediately, and it is entirely possible to delay the time and deliver it separately in private.

After some operations, the fiscal deficit of more than 200 million gold coins actually became more than 100 million.

Compared with the money Hudson made in the last war, it accounted for a quarter of the total.With his current cash reserves on hand, he can completely continue to support the high deficit development of the territory.

"Lord Earl, if the military expenditure can be brought under control, then our finance department is confident that within two years, we can achieve a balance of income and expenditure in the territory!
In the past year or so, the Ministry of Government Affairs has also taken many measures to optimize the current management model and standardize the construction of grassroots teams.

In this reorganization, we removed seven incompetent officials, arrested three corrupt officials, and promoted 13 officials.

Three new management agencies were added, namely: Family Planning Department, Warcraft Management Department, and Pharmacist Management Department.

At present, these three divisions are all in the initial stage of preparation. Except for the appointment of the person in charge, the rest has yet to be implemented and is expected to be gradually improved in the next two to three years.

This is the relevant personnel appointment and dismissal document, as well as the planning outline for the new organizational structure, please read it! "

While speaking, Jacob handed over a document.The content is a total of two pages, which obviously implements Hudson's minimalist style.

In fact, all the announcement documents on the continent of Aslant have very little content.

Perhaps because the cost of parchment is too high, the content that can be finished in one sentence will never add a second sentence.

After a cursory review, Hudson has no confidence in achieving a balance of payments within two years proposed by the Ministry of Government Affairs.

The reason is very simple. According to the reported work progress, the artificial canal is expected to be completed by the end of the year, and it is expected to be open to navigation in February next year.

With the Grand Canal and an outlet to the sea, how can we not have our own shipyard?

This step is taken out, and that is the real spending of money.Last year's fiscal deficit was 32 gold coins, which also included the expenses of his lord's wedding.

When the voyage plan is released next year, it is estimated that the shipyard project alone will be able to squander this figure.

Not only is the ship expensive, but the magic circle depicted on the ship is even more expensive.
