Even the moon in the sky was hiding behind the clouds, as if it was lazy and sleeping.
Lorraine opened the window and looked at the dark night outside, feeling a little heavy in her heart.
The night sky here does not look any different from that in Nidel City. However, Lorraine knows that in the Holy Light Continent, it will be dawn, and there is no time to come out. Lorraine wants to stay in Nidel to look after the house.
A fairy.
Lorraine gained a lot from those documents marked top secret.
Since the Caribbean City Guards are administrative officials rather than military generals, the top-secret documents are all focused on administration and resource allocation, which seem a bit complicated. There are no direct military instructions in them, such as what date to mobilize which army.
It would be great if there were orders like going somewhere, it would directly show the demons' preparations for war.
Although most of them are transactional, such as recruitment and allocation, Lorraine also has experience in serving as governor.
Although he often slacks off, sleeps in, plays darling games with his girlfriend, uses the salary from the emperor to start his own company, or trains agents and collects other people's dirty information, in short, he does everything except what the governor is supposed to do.
.
The officials below all know that "our governor is busy every day" when mentioned, but no one knows what the governor is busy with.
Moreover, Lorraine left matters to Catherine Adele and the others, so that whether it was daily government meetings or subordinates reporting work, everyone usually went to Her Royal Highness the Princess and Miss Adele first.
But after all, he has some experience in handling official documents. How can we say that Lorraine is the governor? Although everyone knows that Nai'an is actually under the control of the two "queens" of Guidong Palace and West Palace, there are many things that he must read, such as
The latest imperial meeting issued by Ruman Propaganda Department
The discussion was spirited, His Majesty the Emperor delivered an important speech in a certain place, His Majesty personally participated in the construction of housing in a certain place, the great significance of moving a brick, etc., etc., but Uncle Lorraine was too lazy to read it, Catherine
And Adele would also take Lorraine and tell him.
Among those top-secret documents, green magic crystals, grain and grass, and explosive crystals were all listed as the highest priority, requiring all localities to increase their collection efforts, and were directly linked to political performance.
These items have become the focus of the current government work.
Even the manufacturing of weapons and equipment and iron ore mining have to give way so that the recruitment of those few materials can be completed as soon as possible.
In other words, the High Priest of the Undead is determined and prepared to fight a protracted war, a war of attrition.
Lorraine knew that despite the cultural and educational propaganda of the Holy See of Light, the undead demons were all a bunch of clowns. In the propaganda, they were a group of ugly, stupid, and disgusting creatures.
As long as a bunch of country folk carrying dung forks and hoes drink wine and sing some pornographic tunes, they can easily deal with it. And afterwards, there will be a lot of money and various honors.
, and the beautiful village girl who volunteered herself.
The central idea is that you don’t need to be afraid. No matter how hard you fight against the evil demons and undead creatures, those despicable and obscene creatures cannot defeat us.
But in fact, according to the records of Maple Leaf Danlin and Fantino, the battle that year was extremely difficult. In the early stage, they retreated steadily under the powerful offensive of the demons and undead. In the end, they could only huddle in the military fortress for passive defense.
Humanity even came close to being exterminated.
Relying on the unified command of the entire continent, the mages and priests fighting without fear of sacrifice, relying on the remote clearing of the wilderness and the bloody war of attrition, the situation was restored.
The final result was that both sides suffered losses, with the demons and undead retreating to Amelia.
Although Holy Light Continent declared victory in the end, the price paid was so high that people cannot bear to mention it.
But now, the two races, Semitic and Undead, under the leadership of the High Priest of the Undead, have been working hard and saving for a thousand years.
Once their power breaks out, it will be enough to cause the world to collapse and the mountains and rivers to change color~!
What's more, among those documents, Lorraine saw that purple magic crystal and floating magic stone were mined in large quantities, but the quantities of these two materials were extremely strangely inconsistent. And no one has traced it so far.
This means that the secret level of these two materials is extremely high, even in these top-secret documents, they are still top-secret.
Although Lorraine graduated from Maple Leaf Danlin's Strategic Command Department, one of the most rubbish subjects, she often skipped school and took the lead in skipping classes. In fact, she didn't attend classes for more than a few days.
Because he is a troublesome person in the academy, and his achievements are so great that no teacher is willing to teach him. Otherwise, this ruffian will bang the table and say, "How did I command wisely in the battle to defend Maple Leaf Danlin, and how did I lead the way in the attack on Almohad"
...', everyone must keep their mouths shut.
In order to get rid of him, the teachers randomly issued him a diploma and kicked him out without waiting for him to complete his credits.
But he also learned some things. After all, the hundreds of gold coins he spent on teaching materials were not in vain. Like purple magic crystal and floating magic stone, these are the materials for making flying war fortresses~!
In terms of war machines, demons and undead have their own expertise, and they keep this knowledge as top secret. Humans are far behind them in these aspects, but humans also have their own expertise. There are a large number of mages and priests with super power.
Powerful magical weapons are the pride of mankind.
If these powerful war machines are successfully manufactured, it will definitely be a disaster for the entire human race.
In the war of that year, once these powerful and arrogant war fortresses were put into the battlefield, the outcome of the battlefield would be known.
But fortunately, there are not many of them, and they consume huge amounts of energy, and are extremely troublesome to move and use. Even with the power of the entire country of the demons and undead, they cannot fully afford them.
Therefore, these ultimate weapons do not appear often. But every time they appear, there must be mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Even when their towering figures appeared in the sky, the human race lost all fighting spirit and fled one after another. They cannot be resisted by human power.
And now, the numbers revealed in these documents alone are enough to create as many as five war fortresses~!
It is very possible that they have made a technological breakthrough in building war fortresses, or found other more effective methods. After all, a thousand years have passed, and human technology and magic have made great progress compared to before. I believe it is the same here.
.
If this is really the case, then when an invasion occurs in the future, war fortresses like locusts will surely cover the entire sky, blocking the scorching sun and casting huge shadows on the earth...
Lorraine couldn't help but shudder when she thought of this.
The situation of these war fortresses must be understood, and if possible, their design drawings must be obtained.
Finally, find a way to destroy those production bases. If that doesn't work, delay their production progress as much as possible~!
Thinking of this, Lorraine immediately calmed down. Then she sat back at the table.
Intelligence work is like a huge jigsaw puzzle. As the clues are put together, the whole picture will gradually become clear, and the context of the matter will gradually become clear.
Since we collected a lot of information in the theater in advance, and then referred to those top-secret documents, we verified each other a little bit, and then we knew which ones were true, which ones were false, and which ones were suspicious.
Lorraine had accumulated some previous experience. At this time, she just thought about it briefly and found several suspicious places on the map she bought casually from the market.
He looked at those places and originally wanted to mark them on the map, but he stopped as soon as the pen tip touched the paper.
This is the territory of the Semites. If they see that they have this map, even a fool will know that he is a spy, just like the Japanese who carry a surveyor and wander around other people's doors. Isn't this just looking for a spy?
Caught?
Out of caution, Lorraine could only click a few times with her fingers and noted the places and positions in her mind.
At this time, a cock crow sounded in the distance.
Lorraine couldn't help being startled and looked up towards the sky.
Unknowingly, time passed very quickly.
At this time, there is darkness in the sky, which is the darkest and deepest moment of the night. But the goddess Venus, which represents the incarnation of love and beauty, has risen, and the stars are shining, dazzling and moving.
Although it is dark at the moment, dawn is coming soon~!
While he was thinking about it, most of the night had passed. He didn't dare to neglect at the moment, and quickly cleaned up the messy documents on the table, carefully erasing any traces that might be left on the documents, carefully sorting them out, and then
He touched Vera lightly again, then realized something was wrong and quickly withdrew his hand.
Sure enough, the moment he retracted his hand, Vera didn't open her eyes, and like a conditioned reflex, she bit it with her fine teeth as white as braided shells.
You have to withdraw your hands quickly, otherwise you will have to be bitten by that girl. She is really born in the year of the dragon, and she will come when she opens her mouth.
Lorraine couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from her head. Fortunately, she reacted quickly.
At this moment, Vera twisted her body and lay down again, soundly sleeping. Under the light, her pretty face was pretty and rosy, and she didn't look like she had bitten anyone.
Lorraine sighed immediately, and then whispered in Vera's crystal clear ear: "Who dropped this gold coin?"
Vera sat up suddenly and shouted before she even opened her eyes: "Don't move, my~!"
After saying that, he opened his eyes with difficulty.
Seeing Lorraine's half-smiling expression, she couldn't help but stare at him blankly. There was no focus at all in her big blue eyes, and she was completely absent-minded. She was still confused at this moment.
After a while, she rubbed her eyes vigorously and woke up. When she saw Lorraine standing opposite her, she said coquettishly: "Master, what are you doing? Can't you call me later? I
I just dreamed of picking up a large sum of money. Just when I was about to put it in my hand, I woke up."
Lorraine sighed and said: "Okay, wait a while, you can continue to have this dream. We have to return the documents, and we can't delay this."
Vera snorted dissatisfied and said: "You are forced to work overtime. If you don't sleep well, it is also very bad for my skin..."
Lorraine smiled bitterly and said, "I know. I'll give you a salary increase later, is that okay?"
Vera immediately cheered, then jumped over, hugged Lorraine's arm tightly with both hands, kissed him hard on the face, and said: "Master, you are the best."
Lorraine snorted and added: "Master, I am not the best, but being the one who gets taken advantage of is the best~!"
Vera immediately stuck out her sweet tongue, twisted her body coquettishly, and said: "Don't be so stingy, what's yours is mine anyway."
Lorraine snorted coldly, but then she felt the unique tenderness and amazing elasticity of the girl's plump breasts coming from her arms. She was immediately dizzy and thought to herself: This person who was taken advantage of occasionally takes advantage of the situation, but he doesn't.
Bad~!
He looked at Vera's slightly messy hair because she was sleeping on the table. He reached out to help her tidy it up slightly, and then looked to the side.
Leo was sleeping soundly, lying on the bed, smacking his tongue from time to time. He murmured twice in his sleep: "Nicole, hit me on the head again, and I will fight you~! ...No, don't add me again.
I paid my taxes, and I am very obedient..."
Lorraine couldn't help but hesitate after looking at it, wanting to let him continue to sleep, but he was the only one who had opened the safe, and the password should still be in his hand.
He immediately hardened his heart and was about to wake Leo up. At this moment, he saw Leo turn over and lie down on his back, revealing a note on his pillow.
Lorraine was stunned for a moment, then took it over casually. It read: Don't call me, the password is very simple... One of the four great fools in life, the house number is used as the password.
Lorraine immediately laughed. These people's awareness of prevention really needs to be strengthened. But there is nothing that can be done about it.
Because a person's energy is limited after all, it is impossible to remember a password that has nothing to do with him. Even if he sets it, he might have someone to pry open his safe two days later because he forgot the password.
Suppose you deposit 50 million in a Swiss bank, but forget the password because it is difficult to remember. No matter who you are, you will have to think about it and jump into the river.
Lorraine immediately reached out and put the note on the fire next to it, burned it to ashes, then gently pulled it away and scattered it. In this way, even if the high priest of the undead came in person, it would be impossible to know
What was written on that paper?
Lorraine took Vera with her, and the two of them sneaked back into the city guard's office quietly under the cover of darkness. Then they opened the safe and put the documents away again until there were no flaws, and then they exited again.
Returned to his room.
At this time, the sky was already bright.
Vera returned to the room, yawned, immediately lay down on her bed with a happy face, and then fell asleep.
Only then did Lorraine feel exhausted. She turned around and fell asleep on the bed next to her.
He slept very deeply, and he didn't know how long it took before he was woken up by a loud noise.
When Lorraine opened her eyes, she saw that the sun was almost reaching the zenith, and it was almost noon. She couldn't help but be surprised. She had slept for too long.
He immediately turned over and sat up from the bed, rubbing his eyes. He looked around, but found that there was no one in the room. Even Xiaobai, who always liked to be lazy and pretend to be dead, didn't know where he had gone.
He couldn't help but feel strange. At this moment, there was another burst of excitement and noise in the courtyard.
Lorraine stood up and looked out the window. She saw that the yard was very busy with people coming and going, and there was a group of people gathering next to it, but it was hard to see what they were doing.
At this moment, his curiosity aroused, and he immediately opened the door and went out.
Lorraine came to the courtyard, said nothing, squeezed into the crowd, and immediately felt dumbfounded.
In the middle of the crowd, Xiaobai was juggling with his long nose, throwing three tomatoes into the air one after another, and dancing in a circle, which was dazzling and very beautiful.
The people nearby saw it and immediately cheered and threw the coins into the basket next to Xiaobai.
Lorraine looked at it and couldn't help but dumbfounded. This little white guy is so good at finding opportunities to make money. I don't know how Leo taught it. He didn't even miss this place. Could it be that it also has the needs of its mother-in-law and plans to
Make money to buy a house?
Moreover, these attendants and guards are also messing around. They don't even go to work in broad daylight, but gather here to watch the fun. They are simply unorganized and undisciplined. Aren't they afraid that the city guard will deduct their wages and bonuses?
As soon as he thought of this, he heard someone shouting next to him: "Coming, coming."
The crowd dispersed with a roar.
When Xiaobai saw this, he opened his big mouth. The three tomatoes flying in the air fell one by one under the action of gravity, and landed right in his big mouth.
Xiaobai raised his neck proudly, then slowly closed his big mouth, juices immediately splashed everywhere, and his saliva fell to the ground.
It didn't care, but picked up the money basket next to it and dumped it on the ground. After counting it carefully, it picked it up again and put it in the pocket of its back. Finally, it patted it hard and smiled widely.
His eyes were narrowed into slits, and he looked obsessed with money.
It tidied up, and then saw Lorraine, and flew over happily. When it came to it, without saying much, it rubbed its big head on Lorraine's clothes.
On the surface, it seemed like they were being affectionate, but Lorraine was very suspicious. It was looking for a place to wipe the drool from its mouth. So, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it down. Then he asked enlighteningly: "Xiao Bai, you have made a lot of money."
Ah? Do you think we have created a peaceful and stable environment for you so that you can make money? Should you pay more taxes to show your appreciation?"
Xiaobai was shocked immediately, then pretended to have thought of something, whistled, turned around and left.
Lorraine looked at its back, smiled, and said, "I was just joking. "
Xiaobai turned around cautiously, looked at Lorraine seriously, and saw that he really didn't look like he was going to raise taxes on himself, so he felt relieved. Then he carefully returned to his side, but kept his attitude.
At a safe distance, if Lorraine said anything about tax increases, she would pretend to remember that she was going to fight soy sauce and run away early.
Lorraine saw through its little plan at a glance, but he didn't say anything. He just asked: "Where are Leo and the others?"
Xiaobai hesitated for a moment, then stretched forward.
Lorraine turned around and looked. She only heard the sound of wheels. Immediately afterwards, several carriages loaded with goods drove into the house. On the first one sat a white, fat little boy with pink makeup.
It's Leo.
His eyes were shining with excitement at this time, and his face was full of pride. After galloping into the house, he waved to everyone and said: "Move quickly, move quickly."
Only then did Lorraine notice that the car was full of tomato trees, and there were even a lot of red tomatoes, basket after basket, filling the carriage. In addition, there were two carriages behind it.
filled with the same stuff.
At this time, the guards listened to the order, rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward, unloading all the things from the car and placing them in the middle of the yard. Some people carried the fruits that had been picked to the side.
In the ice cellar for storage.
Lorraine couldn't help but be surprised, what on earth are these people going to do?
Leo stood in the car majestically with a small belly, gesticulating and giving instructions. When he saw Lorraine, he screamed in surprise, then jumped out of the car and ran over.
Lorraine looked at him sweating profusely. Before he could open his mouth, someone next to him had already brought ice tea and towels.
Leo wiped his sweat, then made a proud gesture and said, "I did a good job, didn't I?"
Lorraine followed the direction of his finger and discovered that there was not much open space in the entire yard, and it was all tomato trees. Then she wondered: "What are you doing?"
Leo was startled and said naturally: "Hoarding~!"
He paused for a moment, and then added: "This morning, Fiona came over and said that she would buy some tomatoes before everyone knows the uses of them. Maybe they can be used for speculation later. Xiaofa made a
Pen."
The man next to him took advantage of the opportunity and said with a smile: "Young master, you must be thirsty. This is the black tea I brewed specially, with sugar added in it and chilled. It's the best."
Looking at his flattering smile and attentive appearance, it was like seeing the God of Wealth. Even meeting his own father may not necessarily bring him such a close relationship.
Lorraine was silent at the moment. He had seen this kind of expression many times on the faces of the clients of Feiying Company who came to see Leo for services.
Leo took it immediately and drank it in one gulp.
He sighed contentedly and said, "Yes, this tea is really delicious. Get me a few more cups."
The man was overjoyed immediately, agreed, turned around and ran out.
Leo then continued: "Where did I say it? Oh, by the way. At that time, Fiona said she wanted to take the opportunity to speculate.
After hearing this, I thought it was a good idea. However, I found that there were many loopholes in her plan, so I immediately told her how to maximize profits by speculating on seeds."
He paused and then added: "As you know, we are also capitalists, and we are colluding with government and businessmen. We are the best at doing this."
At this point, Leo gestured with joy and said, "That's what I said in such a dignified way. She was so shocked that her body trembled, and then she looked in admiration. I will be the chief operator of the whole thing.
Responsible for the operation."
Looking at his appearance, Lorraine had a bad feeling in her heart and said, "Then... why are these people so excited?"
Leo said matter-of-factly: "Of course. In order to mobilize more funds and concentrate on doing big things, I asked them all to invest in shares. How can they not be active in this kind of getting rich?"
