Although Vera had not seen her parents for a long time and missed them very much, she knew what kind of personality her mother, the Blue Dragon Queen Enrellias, had.
Dragons and women, both are the most terrifying creatures in the world, not to mention Enrelias has taken possession of them all.
Vera has always had a psychological shadow. Not to mention herself, her father was obedient in front of her.
She relied on the universally applicable maxim that "men become evil when they are rich" and claimed that she would never let her husband have the opportunity to discredit the title of "the great God-killer and the patron saint of the world", so she went to the hospital.
, all the pocket money in Vigalis was searched, and all the treasures were taken away.
As soon as she comes here, if she is jealous of money and does what she often did before when she walked in the world, like "walking on behalf of the sky" or "punishing on behalf of the moon", let go and grab it. It is estimated that the entire Naian Province
The economy will go into recession for ten years.
If she feels that fighting alone is not enough, and then forms a group on Dragon Island, the consequences...
Vera thought about the terrible future and immediately had a cold war. You must know that Vera is now a little rich woman, with movable and real estate and so on, and a lot of wealth to her name, sometimes she can't even count it.
Not to mention anything else, I think she had encouraged Lorraine to rob a bank together. This silly girl even stepped on the plate.
But later, she and Leo came to the bank with their guys, and saw those yellow, white, and shiny things. Although they couldn't walk, they couldn't bear to do anything.
Why?
Wasn't it because it was then that she discovered that the bank was owned by the Flying Eagle Company and she also had shares in it?
But now Catherine raised this opinion all of a sudden, leaving her unable to refute it for a while.
Therefore, Vera opened her big, clear eyes as blue as the sea, and was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Lorraine looked at it and immediately knew that the girl Vera was in a daze again. She quickly made a haha, went over to smooth things over and said: "I told Vera's parents when I went home last time. Vera's parents are used to the countryside.
I don’t want to come here.”
Vera nodded quickly and said, "Yes, that's it. My mother is very stubborn."
Catherine said "Oh" and said, "That's fine too."
After Lorraine had been extorting money for so long, and having fought long and arduous struggles with officials at all levels of the empire, Leo suddenly understood after listening to Catherine and Vera's questions and answers.
Pulling Melina's little hand, she patted her small chest and said boldly: "Melena, I've done your share for you, just think of it as a gift to your parents."
Milena said in surprise: "Really? Leo, you are so good."
Then Milena hugged Leo and kissed him hard on the face.
Seeing Milena's big watery eyes looking at him with admiration, Leo felt that he had done something extremely manly. He pretended not to care, but raised his chest high, waved his hands and said, "That's not true.
What's going on, haha, hahahaha."
Lorraine said: "Okay, now that everything has been decided, let's write a letter to home. This news can't be kept secret for a few days. The sooner the better."
As she spoke, Lorraine took out a piece of white paper, picked up a pen and dipped it in ink to write a letter.
Catherine asked curiously: "Who are you writing to?"
Lorraine pouted and said, "Of course it's for your uncle, our Emperor."
"Hasn't the letter reporting victory been sent out?" Catherine asked, "Why do you still write it?"
Lorraine said: "We are selling 180 million acres of land here. If His Majesty doesn't let His Majesty know about such a big thing in detail, what do you think your uncle will think?
What's more, we have taken care of all the relatives here, but we have forgotten the emperor. He is my boss, you and Leo's uncle. That old guy hacked me last time.
Let me double the betrothal gift."
Catherine thought about it. This is not thirty thousand or twenty thousand acres, or even three hundred thousand or two hundred thousand acres. The governor can decide by himself. This is two hundred million acres, involving tens of millions of gold coins. Although it is Lorraine.
It was within the scope of the governor's authority, and because of Catherine and Leo's royal status, they did not dare to gossip. However, the matter was serious and must be made clear to His Majesty the Emperor.
Catherine took the pen from Lorraine's hand and said, "I'd better write it. My uncle is in front of me to make up for his mistakes. He doesn't dare to have any objections if I write."
Lorraine thought about it and felt that this was the best, and nodded in agreement with Catherine's statement.
Watching everyone at the table sealing the written letters in envelopes, Lorraine stretched and said with a smile: "Okay, it's very late, let's go to bed."
Hilmeria covered her mouth and exclaimed "Yeah", her face turned red instantly, and even her neck turned red.
Catherine spat at Lorraine, reached under the table, and pinched Lorraine's waist hard.
Adele's eyes suddenly became moist. She glanced at Lorraine sideways, snorted disdainfully, then bit Lorraine's ear and muttered in a low voice: "Lewdness."

Constantine City, the center of the ten eastern provinces, the most important eastern town of the Ruman Empire, echoes the Ruman City which is located in the center of the empire.
Regardless of the size of the city, the permanent population in the city, or the wealth of the city, Constantine City ranks second in the empire after Ruman City.
The time when the city of Constantine was founded has long been unknown. We only know that before the establishment of the Ruman Empire, the city of Constantine had already stood on this fertile plain.
There are even legends that the city of Constantine was destroyed three times, but was quickly rebuilt on the ruins each time.
In the thousand-year history of the Ruman Empire, the city of Constantine has been expanded many times, and now it has formed a grand layout of four levels inside and outside.
As the center of the eastern provinces and the support point of the eastern front in the struggle against the Parthian Empire, Constantine has always been operated and constructed as a military town from the earliest days. The innermost core of the city, where the city lord's palace is located,
It is completely a huge military fortress.
The city wall that surrounds the second layer of the city is also a completely fortress-style building. The city wall is wide, thick and tall, with a height of seventy feet. Within the protection of this layer of city wall are the Constantine Strategic Material Reserve Warehouse and the Imperial Officials of Constantine.
It is the residence of the nobles. There are deep houses and compounds everywhere here. It can be said that every inch of land is very valuable. Moreover, large teams of people patrol the place continuously day and night. Even the mice work to earn money in order to maintain good public security.
The scope of the third floor of Constantine is much larger. Within this layer, there are residences of the business circles and low-level government officials of Constantine, as well as the residences of relatively wealthy civilians. Most of the buildings are in the style of one or more people.
Mainly a small courtyard with two entrances.
The military barracks that defended the city's garrison were also inside this layer of city walls.
The outermost and largest floor is where ordinary people live together. It is active with ordinary people engaged in various professions and a large number of small merchants and vendors. One or two-story small buildings are densely built according to the blocks.
Ordinary soldiers, craftsmen, small businessmen, barbers, prostitutes and other characters all live here. This is the most vibrant place in Constantinople. It is bustling and lively from morning to night.
Although Constantine is not as vast and majestic as the city of Ruman, with millions of citizens, it is still a great city on the mainland, with a population of 700,000 or 800,000 people living here.
Since Grand Duke Julius was entrusted with the title of in charge of the ten eastern provinces and established a government office in Constantinople, the City Lord's Palace in the center of the city was transformed into a Grand Duke's Palace.
This is also where officials who manage the eastern provinces work and the command headquarters that commands hundreds of thousands of troops along the eastern border.
In one of the halls, which was completely built with solid and neat blue-black stones, staff were busy going back and forth.
Although there were many people coming and going, they were all cautious. Even when they spoke, their voices were lowered, and their expressions were cautious, as if they were afraid of disturbing some monster entrenched here.
This monster named Archduke Julius was sitting upstairs in a hall covered with dark red carpets, grinning and looking at a thick stack of documents in his hand.
Grand Duke Julius frowned and dusted off various documents that were an inch thick in his hand. He gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart: Lorraine, this damn boy~!
With tens of millions of people and hundreds of thousands of troops in the ten eastern provinces, you can imagine how many things need to be handled by Archduke Julius every day, which are turned into reports and documents and fly to his desk.
Although the daily official affairs were still handled by Catherine, Catherine was in Nai'an after all, and it took eight days for official documents to come and go. Many matters that required quick decisions still had to be handled by the Grand Duke himself.
Although there are a large number of civilian officials and political assistants, just signing the document and writing "agree" or "reject" is enough to make the Grand Duke relent every day.
Grand Duke Julius was very sad and angry to find that since Catherine left Maple Leaf Danlin, his workload not only did not decrease as expected, but actually increased. After all, Catherine spent half of her time dealing with Naian for Lorraine.
of affairs.
"Daughters are losers!" Archduke Julius muttered bitterly and signed his name on the paper with all his strength.
At this time, there was a loud knock on the door. After two knocks, without waiting for the Grand Duke to speak, the person who knocked on the door opened the door and walked in.
The person who entered the door was a capable old man with silver hair. His face was as sharp as a knife. Although he was over sixty years old, his eyes were bright, his steps were steady, and he walked with a breath of wind.
The expression on his face was serious, and it was clear at a glance that this old man was a veteran operator with a strict style of work.
The Grand Duke smiled and nodded to the people who came in, pointing to the seat opposite him.
The old man bowed deeply to the Grand Duke, then sat opposite the Grand Duke, and then breathed out a sigh of relief.
Archduke Julius threw down the documents in his hand and asked: "My dearest Bielsa, what made you so angry?"
The Grand Duke then hooked his hand with the attendant behind him, who quickly brought a cup of hot tea to Bielsa's hand.
Bielsa took a sip of hot tea, then took a breath of comfort, raised his hand to touch the neatly combed silver hair on his head, and sighed: "Your Highness, isn't that all there is to do? I have no money."
Grand Duke Julius's eyes suddenly widened, he squeezed the documents in his hand, threw the thick pile of paper, and said anxiously: "Didn't I get you a sum of money? Why?
Not enough?"
Bielsa pursed his lips and shook his head, and said with a dark face: "It was all used up in less than a month. Damn the Parthians. They had a famine this year. Those Parthian nobles should be crushed into dregs in hell."
In order to divert domestic conflicts, we have continuously strengthened our offensive in the past two months. Now the entire border is noisy. Those pigheads, if they have no money, they will copy two nobles. They always did this in the past.
, I don’t know why I suddenly became enlightened this year.”
After saying this, the serious-looking old man greeted all the women of the Parthian royal family with a series of skilled swear words.
After venting for two minutes, Bielsa showed his hands to Archduke Julius and said: "Just giving allowances and bonuses to the soldiers, all the money has been used up."
Archduke Julius grinned silently and wryly, and asked: "Then urge that old bastard Russell again, I have already handed in the letter requesting the appropriation for two months."
Bielsa hit his knee and said bitterly: "That's what I came here to talk about today."
Then Bielsa's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said: "That bastard Russell is a third-level guy. He doesn't want to fund us, and he's afraid of offending Your Highness. That old bastard actually said it was a big deal and took the money we wanted to fund."
The matter has been handed over to the Heraldry Academy for discussion. It would be damning if those old coffin ladles can come up with a result from the discussion."
"Ah..." Archduke Julius screamed, threw the documents in his hand on the table, rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Russell, you old bastard, wait, I can't spare you."
Bielsa looked at the excitement of Archduke Julius and said quickly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, it is useless to kill Russell now, so we should think of a way quickly. Your Highness, our treasury is already empty.
, spring planting will be coming soon, and that’s when money is spent, and it looks like this battle will have to be fought for at least another month.”
Archduke Julius rubbed his frown and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. Almohad's warship was auctioned at Maple Leaf Danlin at half price. We now have an extra fleet, don't we?
If I don’t buy it and someone else buys it, wouldn’t it be a threat to us?”
Bielsa curled his lips and muttered: "That's more than two million, all our cash."
Grand Duke Julius shrugged and said, "Isn't it a good deal to buy a fleet for more than two million yuan?
But I also blame that bastard Lorraine. He just told me secretly if he had any good things, and he also had to hold an auction. As a result, I spent hundreds of thousands more, and we are all living a tight life until now.
So, it doesn’t matter if I ask him for a salary. This guy should have paid it in the first place. My daughter is helping him voluntarily. He must repay me no matter what. But Nicole is not happy yet.
Really, she didn’t even say who raised her, but now that she has a lover, she doesn’t even want her father anymore, hey, let me tell you..."
Archduke Julius didn't know what kind of stimulation he had recently. Whenever he talked about Lorraine and Catherine, he complained endlessly. It seemed that his resentment towards Lorraine was not as great as usual.
Bielsa sighed and said: "I understand, Your Highness, we have worked hard to raise our daughter, and she is given whatever she wants, but she is still dissatisfied and complains all day long, but suddenly a bastard appears,
He hooked his fingers and ran with them."
Grand Duke Julius seemed to have found a close friend, nodding his head and saying: "Yes, that's right, that's what happened. I asked him to pay 200,000 gold coins, and Nicole complained to me. Oh, that's the money I gave you.
.”
Bielsa nodded "yes" and said: "Probably, we can't take advantage of that kid."
Archduke Julius slapped his thigh and laughed and said: "That's right, you can't give that kid a cheap price. The two hundred thousand dollars will be a lot of fun, Bielsa."
"Yes, Your Highness." Bielsa's old coffin face suddenly laughed and said: "The officers and soldiers below all know that this bonus was sent by the Count of Lorraine, and they all praise the Count of Lorraine."
Archduke Julius asked curiously: "What did they say?"
Bielsa suddenly hesitated again and remained speechless.
Grand Duke Julius waved his hand and said: "Okay, just say it. I know that those little bastards never speak well of people."
Bielsa coughed and said: "When the money was distributed, everyone said thank you to the lady for hooking such a good guy."
The attendant behind Archduke Julius could not hold back and burst out laughing.
The Grand Duke shook his head, folded his hands and laughed, saying: "Don't worry, I just asked Lorraine for another sum, save some money, it will probably last this month."
Bielsa opened his mouth in shock and said: "You asked the Count of Lorraine for another sum?"
Julian the Great said confidently: "He asked me again if he wanted a legion. Shouldn't he have to pay another amount? I sent him the seventh legion without paying for it."
Bielsa grinned, he couldn't laugh or cry, and thought to himself: After all, he is your son-in-law, so this is indeed a bit shameful.
Grand Duke Julius waved his hand boldly and said: "Lorraine and we are considered a family, so we don't need to be polite to him. Moreover, Lorraine got a big share of Maple Leaf Danlin's loot. I guess that's enough."
There are three to four hundred thousand.
Do you know that that bastard made a lot of money in Almohad? I heard that the nobles in Almohad gnashed their teeth with hatred when he mentioned him. They all said that Lorraine was very prosperous in Almohad.
, the things we robbed are worth tens of millions, tens of millions~!”
Bielsa looked at Archduke Julius's resentful look and cursed in his heart: This is obviously because he is jealous that others hug him more than you.
Grand Duke Julius continued: "Caput later reported to me that the boxes Lorraine shipped back were filled with three of the largest battleships."
The Julian Empire held out three fingers and said excitedly: "Three ships! Battleships! Full of ships! Bielsa, you are an old financial officer. Please tell me how much they cost."
"
If Lorraine saw this scene, she would know from whom Leo learned his habit of making noises.
Bielsa squinted his eyes, raised his hand to touch the hair on his forehead, and said leisurely: "I'm afraid... I must have five or six million."
Grand Duke Julius slapped his thigh and said, "That's right, I just gave him a little blood. He and Leo opened a company and a salt farm. I really thought I didn't know where the capital came from, Nicole.
It’s true, he doesn’t understand his father at all.”
At this time, an attendant opened the door and walked in, handed a letter on a silver plate to the Grand Duke, and whispered: "Your Highness, there is a letter from the eldest lady."
Grand Duke Julius said "Oh" in surprise, picked up the envelope, tore it open and read it carefully. He also said: "Look, it comes as it comes. I guess this is Nicole for Lorraine again."
Called poor, girls are outgoing...wait a minute!"
Grand Duke Julius, who had a depressed expression just now, suddenly shouted and jumped up from his seat. He brought Catherine's letter close to his eyes and read it word for word from beginning to end. Then he put his hands on his hips and suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly.
Laughed.
Grand Duke Julius shook the letter and said to Bielsa, who was looking at him dumbfounded: "It is better for me as a daughter, who is considerate and will be the first to think of her father when good things happen."
Bielsa saw that just now Archduke Julius was complaining that Catherine had forgotten him as his father, but now he was praising her continuously, and thought to himself: The span is too big, what song is this song from?
Grand Duke Julius turned around and said loudly to the guards behind him: "It is an urgent meeting. It is extremely urgent. Call all the deputies from each department to come to the meeting."
The attendant was stunned for a moment, then quickly agreed and turned around and ran out with a long stride.
Bielsa was a little confused and called an emergency meeting of all the chief and deputy directors, but that was a major incident, such as Parthia launching a large-scale raid.
Bielsa was so frightened by the Archduke's order that he jumped up from his chair and said nervously: "Your Highness, has something big happened?"
Archduke Julius looked down at Catherine's letter again and said triumphantly: "A big thing? Yes, my dear Bielsa, it is a big thing, a great good thing!"
Grand Duke Julius raised his head and pretended to be careless and said: "That bastard from Lorraine has acquired 200 million acres of land in the south. He has agreed to sell it to us at a low price first."
Bielsa felt dizzy after hearing this. He quickly pressed down on the sofa and said tremblingly: "How much? Two hundred million acres~!"
After the order was issued, the attendants carrying the order rushed between various departments in Constantine. The order of the emergency meeting of the whole body caused a lot of discussion among the people below. The supervisors did not dare to slack off, dropped their work and hurried to the Grand Duke's Palace.
The main conference room on the first floor of the hall, which could seat two to three hundred people, was quickly filled with people. The supervisors who arrived were whispering among themselves, trying to find out what big event had happened that made the Grand Duke so nervous.
Several attendants hung a wooden board with a huge simplified map on the wall of the conference room, which attracted the attention of those attending the conference.
"Is this a map of that place?"
"Can't tell, no impression, Parthian?"
"By the way, it belongs to Nai'an, it's the map of Nai'an."
"What do you mean? Something happened to our Lord's son-in-law? Aren't they at war with the orcs?"
"It shouldn't be. I heard that we just fought a victorious battle and achieved a decisive victory."
At this time, the attendant shouted loudly: "Quiet, quiet."
He followed Archduke Julius and Bielsa into the conference room.
Without waiting for the people below to stand up and salute, the Grand Duke waved his hand and said loudly: "No, no, please sit down and let's start the meeting directly."
The officials below found that the Grand Duke was smiling from the moment he entered, his face was glowing red, and he walked like a young man, giving the impression that he was ten years younger.
And Bielsa, who always has a dead face, as if everyone owes him money, is even more abnormal. He greets everyone with a smile when he enters the door, even the two statues erected on the wall, and then sits in his seat and giggles.
.
Grand Duke Julius sat in the main seat, folded his hands on his stomach, coughed twice, put on an indifferent expression, and said: "Well, everyone knows that Catherine's little boyfriend Lorraine is here with us.
Naian becomes governor."
The officials below all said "Oh" in their hearts, they know, of course they know, you also squeezed the boss out of his salary.
Grand Duke Julius continued: "That boy in Lorraine, I gave him a hand when I encountered some trouble some time ago. That boy is a good man, and he knows how to repay kindness. This time, he got some land.
, I couldn’t use it myself, so I thought I could help him share some of it.”
The supervisors below looked at each other. They all know the Grand Duke very well. They know that the Grand Duke also has the habit of loving stinky farts. It seems simple to say it, but they are not sure how to be proud of it. Moreover, they also know that it is nothing after Lorraine fought.
Little trouble.
Archduke Julius paused and said nonchalantly: "It's not much, just about 200 million acres, and the price is not expensive. If any of you want it, tell Bielsa and I'll write you a note.
Just go find Lorraine, but I heard there aren’t many good plots of land, so hurry up.”
After some coaxing in the conference room, the supervisors started jumping and shouting without caring about their manners in front of the Grand Duke.

Ruman Feiying International Co., Ltd., referred to as Feiying Co., Ltd.
In order to evade taxes, this company deliberately registered its company in the British Cayman Islands. However, it was praised by many Ruman officials as a conscientious and moral multinational group that upheld the Ruman national corporate family.
company.
Later, this terrifyingly powerful company was constantly criticized by economists. Some people even wrote best-selling books such as "Trust Enterprises" and "Currency War", etc., which fed countless entrepreneurs and called them beasts and monsters.
Their wives, mistresses, mistresses, etc.
But no matter what, although this company has gone through many ups and downs, it has always stood firm. Like a powerful and terrifying monster, it exerts various influences on the people living on that continent.
When Young Master Leo, the legal representative, chairman and CEO of Flying Eagle Co., Ltd., signed the contract in the Governor's Office in Lorraine.
This also means that the Flying Eagle Company has reached an agreement with the officials of the Naian Province of the Ruman Empire. In the future land sales process, the Flying Eagle Company will be fully responsible.
Although this is a typical contract involving collusion between officials and businessmen, in a sense, it is actually a win-win business contract.
Because the Governor of Naian is Lord Lorraine, if the provincial government of Naian goes bankrupt, no matter what he does, he will definitely step down if he is blamed for "poor governance".
Moreover, no matter how handsome he is, he is also the adulterer of Her Royal Highness the Princess. But there is nothing trivial in politics.
Let’s talk about this comment. No matter how much the royal family protects it, in the face of the powerful Ruman bureaucracy, all it takes is the Imperial Personnel Department to say lightly, "Lorraine? Is that the governor who bankrupted the Naian government? Do you still want him to be an official?"
So where do you want to go bankrupt again?”
As soon as these words came out, even if His Majesty the Emperor came in person, he could only flee in defeat. From now on, Lord Lorraine would not want to do anything in his official career. He could only go back to his old castle in the countryside and live an honest life.
He just stayed there and gnawed his old corn, not to mention getting promoted and making a fortune, and hugging him.
Therefore, this business contract is not without benefits for Nai'an.
In exchange for the land sales agency, all the post-war disaster relief work in Nai'an Province was handed over to the Flying Eagle Company. The Nai'an government no longer had to pay for it. And this alone was enough for Luo
The government that was on the verge of bankruptcy under Sir Alex Lam has breathed a sigh of relief.
In addition, there are also a large number of dividends generated by Feiying's sales of land, most of which have to be turned over to the imperial government. These are enough for Nai'an to jump from a small province with a third-rate GDP to an economic
Important town.
In the future, when you go to the Imperial Treasury, you can also pretend to be a master. You no longer need to be timid like before. In order to ask for funds, you can ask the officials and third-rate clerks of the Ministry of Finance to go to heaven and earth to corrupt themselves. Those masters are useless.
He looked at it with his eyes straight, then after eating and wiping it clean, he said a few official words and left with a pat on the butt.
It is even said that the big bosses in the Ministry of Finance will spend their own money and treat themselves to get one or two percentage points of tax revenue from Naian, and they will go to Qianjin Yixiaolou... and other entertainment venues, and that
Young and beautiful girls have close contact between soul and body.
However, selling and purchasing land, demarcating boundaries, assessing land quality and fertility, and doing related supporting work are all things that need to be done one by one. It can be said that they are complicated and cannot be accomplished overnight.
In order to do a good job in the work of "selling land" and strengthen the vitality of the enterprise, under Lorraine's instruction, Feiying Group established two branches, Feiying Real Estate and Feiying Real Estate. Various businesses are managed by
The two companies compete with each other.
When the two companies were established, Lorraine sighed. Now it was considered a free market economy. Finally, no one dared to question me as a monopoly. It also saved the Empire Senate gang from eating.
Bastards who are full of food and have nothing to do will try their best to imitate the U.S. Senate and come up with another "Anti-Monopoly Bill" and let themselves be yelled at like Bill Gates. It's a waste.
Taxpayer money.
Although Lord Lorraine paid 5 coppers for the businessmen who kept advocating and saying that there were two companies competing with each other on the market, it greatly boosted the economic vitality of Nai An Province and enhanced the entire industry.
Provincial product competitiveness. Moreover, it also eliminates all kinds of black-box operations and a large number of unspoken rules...etc., in short, Lord Lorraine's leadership is wise, and the situation is very good. It is a great thing, not a small good...
However, it needs to be pointed out that in order to save money, Lord Lorraine used the same carrot for the official seals of Feiying Real Estate and Feiying Real Estate when engraving the seals.
Lord Luo cut the radish in the middle with a knife and carved it out from the left and right ends. Then he distributed it to the newly appointed general managers of the two companies.
Even though the company's business has been allocated and the superficial work is done well, everyone is not a fool.
And 200 million acres of land can arouse people's nerves in any era. Even those now wealthy real estate developers will salivate when they see it?
Two hundred million acres of land~! Think about it, even if all of it is covered with affordable housing, how much money can you make?
Although according to imperial laws, the sale of those lands still needs approval from the imperial government, and it is impossible to put it up for sale immediately in the near future, but what kind of person is Lord Lorraine? It seems that he is developing this kind of land while waiting for approval.
Things were very common and common in his time.
Lord Lorraine anticipated how explosive the situation would be in Naian Province in the coming period. In order to avoid being caught off guard and to maximize his own interests, uh..., in the words of the official spokesperson, it should be
: In order to allow the people of Nai'an to heal the trauma of the war as soon as possible, regain their spirits, and devote themselves to work and life that are intense and full of infinite passion.
He spent two days and took the time to print a batch of land certificates. Then he personally escorted them and transported them to the military camp on the front line.
You must know that this battle can be won only because of these soldiers who fought bravely and bravely to kill the enemy. However, due to tight funds, Lorraine has already owed them a lot of military pay. In addition, those who killed the enemy for meritorious service
Various rewards, these add up to a lot of money.
Although it is not much on average for everyone, Lord Lorraine does not take it seriously now. But he has also lived a hard life before, and he knows that the not generous military pay and bonuses combined can be enough.
The families of those soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and lived a better life.
As a superior, he could ignore the wishes of those small soldiers most of the time. And because of the malicious blackmail of Archduke Julius, Lorraine was so angry that his liver ached. But for these soldiers who shed blood and sacrificed their lives to protect their home and country.
Everyone, Lorraine always felt that she could not let these soldiers feel cold. After shedding blood, she shed tears again.
In addition, based on Lorraine's experience in his previous life, he knew the principle of "the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers".
Those scoundrels are not good people. Once they can't get the money, they start a quarrel and rebel. When the time comes, they will be the ones who have to bear the consequences.
I remember that when King Charles I of England was fighting a civil war, he went to Scotland and recruited a lot of double-bonus sticks and cannon fodder boys to fight for him. However, he later owed them half a million pounds in military pay and never paid them.
.
Although the slogan "Support the King, Destroy the Parliament" sounds very nice, and it has the reputation of being just. But no matter how "just" it is, no matter how nice it sounds, it cannot be used as food.
And he also has a wife and children at home and a large family to support. Do you think that when you go out to fight for the king, you have to watch them starve to death in the rear? This is what the wise and mighty King should do when he leads everyone towards a prosperous life.
?
As a result, the Scots couldn't even take the blame. They had no other choice. They surrendered to the enemy on the front line and sold their king. They got their wages back from the generous Cromwell, and then
Go home happily to celebrate the New Year.
And classmate Charlie was also sent to the guillotine, becoming the first monarch to be guillotined.
And with his death as a symbol, it also opened the curtain of the vigorous bourgeois revolution, which brought a series of bloody storms to Europe. Countless princes and nobles had their heads chopped off by the unruly people.
, corpses litter the fields, blood flows into rivers, it’s as miserable as it can be.
This shows how serious the consequences of wage arrears are!
And because of the war that just ended, the money in Nai'an Province was spent like water. Not to mention money and food in the current treasury, even the mice had moved away long ago. Therefore, Lorraine planned to use these lands
The vouchers are used as banknotes and are first distributed to some meritorious soldiers to conduct an experiment to see what the effect is.
To be honest, this matter is indeed a bit unethical. People fight for you, life and death, but you don't give them hard currency, but use these things to fool them.
Therefore, in order to smoothly issue the land certificates, Lorraine also secretly mobilized a large number of royal guards to pretend to be company employees and mix among the crowd to prevent anyone from causing trouble.
But he was surprised to find that the entire distribution process was extremely smooth. The soldiers got the land certificate and knew that with this thing, they could apply for a piece of land from the Nai An Provincial Government without having to pay for it themselves.
The scoundrels were jumping up and down excitedly. They looked at Lord Lorraine as if they were seeing the God of Wealth. They almost wanted to kneel on the ground and kiss his feet.
Do they know that as long as they have land, they will be the backbone of the empire's landlord class.
Lorraine's heart, which had been hanging for a long time, was finally relieved. It seemed that this business could be done, and she could safely and boldly promote it to other legions without worrying about them making trouble.
Just when he finally settled things here, he thought he could rely on those two companies to handle business, and he could be the hands-off shopkeeper and have a good rest.

Hilmeria stretched out her hand and slapped away his paws that were wandering around her body. She frowned her slender eyebrows and said with a sad face: "Lorraine, please stop making trouble, I have something serious to see you."

Hilmeria couldn't help but smile at the moment, reached out and patted Lorraine on the shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Don't make me laugh on purpose, I really have something serious to do."
