Chapter 213 If you love, please love deeply, if you live in a house, please die in a house

Success requires opportunity.

Opportunity only favors those who are prepared.

Those who are prepared are generally rich.

So success only belongs to the rich.

Perfect inferences, perfect conclusions.

Carlos looked at his financial statement and felt that he had been abandoned by God.

King, rich!

Head tax, tenant rent, inheritance tax, stamp tax, stamp tax, promotion tax, confession, and happiness.

There are too many ways for the king to get money. As long as it is not brutal and desperate, it is difficult for the king to want to be poor.

However, Carlos stubbornly did this job that was more promising than the bandits to the destitute field.

If it weren’t for looting Zumashar, and the local nobles in Stratholme pitted Terenas a lot of money, Carlos would not even have the money to continue the construction of the Royal State Church Knights, and support the bricks as the representative. Magic research of the wizard group.

Carlos used his slightly trembling left hand to take off his special flat mirror and threw it on the table, and said in a compelling voice: “Military officer, the marquis, and the guards, all go out.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Yes, king.”

The crowded room suddenly became empty.

“If I remember correctly, the treasury should still have 100,000 gold coins, and I still have at least 20,000 gold coins in my personal name. Then who can tell me what happened to the negative equity in this report? When did I go bankrupt? ?”

Carlos’s breathing became heavier.

“Your Majesty, the new uniform of the Knights, the equipment configuration of the new army, and the bonus of the previous batch of bonds. Within half a month, you have newly deposited 110,000 gold coins and spent 39,000.”

The kingdom’s former finance minister had long said that he had resigned, and the regent did not have suitable personnel, so he could only serve temporarily.

Todd, as Carlos’ attendant, gained the trust of the Grand Duke of the Regent, so he was able to get a financial statement.

“Three hundred and ninety thousand? How did it work out!”

Carlos stood up abruptly from his seat, and everyone present was startled.

“It’s what you said. Without uniform uniforms and uniform equipment configuration, the soldiers’ sense of collective honor cannot be awakened. Without uniform salaries and uniform treatment, the group cannot maintain stability and unity, and there is no uniform aftermath measures and improvement. With the logistics support, Alterac’s chariot cannot go forward.”

Carlos felt familiar to this passage.

“Then, check, are there any worms…”

“Actually, the Grand Duke of the Regent has checked it a long time ago. Congratulations to your majesty. Your officers are paying out of their pockets to subsidize the corps. They are really good subordinates. I’m sorry, the budget of 390,000 yuan is already the lowest configuration.”

Carlos wanted to throw the pencil in his hand on the table, shouting that you are all scum, so angry!

However, he could not.

Why can other people who traverse the rebirth casually pull up an army trained and cultivated with modern concepts, and face a crisis of bankruptcy after only a little bit of fur?

No, I am bankrupt.

“A gold coin can buy a lot of food, but how can an army of 30,000 require 390,000 gold coins?”

Carlos looked like a fish out of the water, staring at his trusted subordinates with wide eyes, but everyone was ashamed to avoid the king’s gaze.

“Master, I’m very sorry, the number of legions you are going to take away is 37,446 people. In addition, a logistics supply team of 20,000 people is needed to provide supplies, so your statement of 30,000 people is wrong. ”



“I know I know!”

“Your Majesty, if the construction of the Royal State Church Knights is stopped, maybe…”

“No, no matter how poor you are, you can’t have poor education.”

Carlos pinched the bridge of his nose hard.

“Otherwise, the V3 plan will be suspended for a while?”

The tile is looking down, stand up and speak.

“No, magic is the primary productive force!”

Carlos waved his hand, saying mighty Haki.

So the end result is that a group of king’s henchmen have discussed it for a long time, and there is no use for fart.

“You go down first, and I will discuss it with my father later.”

When everyone left, only Brother Bal stayed.

“The army is about to start in five days, but the king is in a financial crisis. It’s funny, isn’t it?”

Carlos noticed that the Marquis of Luoyan had not left, and said with a mockery.

“Your Majesty, in fact, you are levying a special war tax or requesting an additional donation. None of this is a problem.”

Carlos’s spy leader said in a puzzled way.

“Brother Bald, you know what, sometimes I’m pretty weird.”

“I am willing to clarify your doubts for your majesty.”

Carlos left his seat, stood up, and walked to the atrium to pace.

“Some people are willing to contribute to the officials I promised, but they are not willing to pay half a gold coin. For this war, the Barov family has emptied their savings for a hundred years. You have followed me from the Hinterlands, You know that my money-gathering methods are not bad. I personally invested almost 200,000 gold coins, but the money is always not enough. Why?”

“Because your majesty loses, there will be nothing. Those people in your mouth lose, they can still be dogs.”

Carlos laughed.

“What you said makes sense, so I will tell you why I don’t increase taxes.”

Carlos walked to the bald brother.

“Because this is an opportunity. After the division of the Arathor Empire, there is actually a problem with the division of the territories of the countries. It’s just that everyone is far apart, and no one dares to fight because of the territorial issue. Why does my dear Uncle Aiden take the capital? Built in the mountains? Back then I thought he was stupid, now I think I am stupid. I don’t know how difficult it is not to stand in this position. Because the orcs are raging, Hillblad was beaten to white ground, and a large number of noble manor owners fled. . Jiang is still old and spicy. My father, Grand Duke Alex, unknowingly, has collected more than 600,000 acres of land, and I am doing the same thing, not much, more than 200,000 acres. As long as After this battle is over, almost all of Hillbrad’s essence will be ours, and Alterac will be able to transform from a small country with a population of 100,000 to a country similar to Stromgarde. Where does the population come from? , These refugees who are fleeing. How much can you extract from the nobles if you increase taxes? The bulk is not on the people. It is easy to collect money. A tax officer and a team of soldiers can always collect it. It is difficult to collect the heart, we After doing so much, they may say goodbye to us, if we only need to collect tax once, my Great Alterac plan may go bankrupt!”

After Carlos talked like nervously, Brother Bald nodded unexpectedly.

“What your Majesty said is very reasonable, then, how about borrowing?”

“Huh? Who can save me half a million gold coins in this season?”

Carlos laughed at himself.

“Yes, Grand Duke.”

“My father may still have money, but I am the king of Alterac, he is the Patriarch of Barov, hey.”

Carlos shook his head helplessly.

“I’m talking about the Grand Duke Ravenholdt.”

Brother Bald took out a unique badge and gave it to Carlos.
