Chapter 25: Chancellor of the Exchequer

In the front hall, Bubu Wang stood upright. He had penetrated several walls just now. In his excitement, he inevitably jumped a little high.

Fortunately, the boob wolf just happened to land on the big spider Meredith, who was yelled "I'll be paralyzed and get high".

The woman on the spider's belly is looking at BooBoo Wang, and BooBoo Wang is also looking at each other. It is not impossible to blend into the environment. Once it is in contact with the enemy for a long time, the enemy can see BooBoo Wang.

At this critical moment, Bubo Wang made an extremely coquettish move, and it jumped up.

After stopping contact with the giant spider Meredith, Boobwon reintegrated into the environment.

The spider threads spread, and Bubu Wang, who was hanging upside down on the ceiling, was still frightened. If he got entangled, he would be dead.

Bubuwang's claws were very sharp. It started to move forward on the ceiling, and soon reached the edge of the front hall. After waiting for the cooling time of the Holy Traveler to expire, it immediately penetrated the wall.

The afternoon sun shone on Bu Bu Wang's face. At this time, the main hall was surrounded by black-armored soldiers. They knew that there was something strange in the main hall, but they could not set foot inside the main hall.

After leaping over the black-armored soldiers several times in a row, Bubouwang's power was at full power. It never wanted to step into the palace again.

Half an hour later, Bubu Wang arrived at the Imperial Council Hall and spit out the core of the world full of saliva into Su Xiao's hand.

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's have a big meal when we get back."

"Woof."

Bu Bu Wang's mood immediately became clear. Su Xiao looked at the core of the world in her hand and finally got it.

【Yes/No Completed Main Mission·Second Ring.】

Su Xiao immediately refused. Now that the second ring mission is completed, the core of the world will definitely be taken away by Samsara Paradise. He will also use this thing to fish.

Tying up the World Core with a thin rope, Su Xiao tied the thin rope to his left wrist, and the hanging World Core jingled against the metal arm.

The bait is already there, and Su Xiao doesn't believe that the fish won't take the bait, unless the other party wants to endure the endless pursuit of the hunter.

After leaving the Imperial Parliament Hall, Su Xiao went straight to Youyu Manor. Fishing requires patience. He still has 18 days left. Even if he can't catch any fish, he won't lose much.

When Su Xiao returned to Youyu Manor, she found that Wu Fu was already waiting in the living room of the castle.

"Sir, the military funds have arrived. Here is the list."

Wolfe respectfully handed over a list of things he planned to purchase with military funds.

After the young duke gave up seizing power, the efficiency of the finances was greatly improved. The military expenditure that originally took four or five days to allocate arrived in two days, and it was 10% higher. It was said that the frontier was tight, and the Ministry of Finance would provide full assistance.

Su Xiao looked at the purchase list. He didn't know much about this aspect, but he couldn't let Wu Fu notice this.

"Well, I'll leave it to you."

"Yes, my lord. But it's just too much..."

Wu Fu didn't dare to look up at Su Xiao, the meaning of his words was already obvious, 10% of the money was given to Su Xiao as a filial piety.

"Is it more than 10%?"

"this……"

Wu Fu's eyes flashed strangely, seemingly confused, but in fact he understood everything in his heart.

Of course, Su Xiao knew that if officers like Wu Fu were not fed, there would not necessarily be any trouble in military power. The bloody lesson of King Da Mao was there. It was not a good thing if it was too unbiased. People have seven emotions and six desires. Complete impartiality.

Only exists in ideals.

"I heard that prices in the empire have continued to rise recently. You officers in the Holy City are not living a good life."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Wu Fu nodded in agreement and silently put away the list. There are some things that you just need to know in your heart. If you ask directly, that is seeking death.

"The Chancellor of Finance has done a good job. Send word to him that I will pay him a visit tonight, at the Duke's Manor. Remember, the Duke's Manor."

Su Xiao repeated the Duke's Manor twice. Of course he would not just wait for the fish to take the bait. He had found traces of violators on the little Duke before, so of course he was going to see what was going on.

"My subordinate understands."

Wu Fu was obviously a human spirit and immediately understood what Su Xiao meant.

"By the way, take care of your people."

Su Xiao seemed to speak inadvertently, but Wu Fu felt as if he was struck by lightning.

"Sir, what are you talking about?"

Wu Fu's heart was beating fast. In the eyes of outsiders, he was a big shot in the military, but when facing Su Xiao, he was afraid from the bottom of his heart. Empire giants like Duke Silver Feather and Blumer would die at the drop of a hat.

In comparison, he, Wulf, is nothing. If he makes this person unhappy one day, he may disappear without even realizing it.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, but looked at Wu Fu with a smile, looking casual and kind.

"My subordinates will do their best, sir, don't worry!"

Wolfe knelt down on one knee.

"Well, let's go down. Don't do it too conspicuously. Just let our people here be 'fed'."

"Yes, yes."

Wu Fu exited the waiting room. As soon as he went out, he breathed a sigh of relief, took his coat and fanned himself.

"Sir, why are you so scared?"

Zoss, who was standing by the door, opened his mouth. His status was now rising, and he was the one who did most of the shady things.

"You kid knows nothing."

Wolf glanced at Zoss and walked downstairs.

"Tch, just be as powerful as me."

Zoss knocked on the door and put away his expression that everyone owed him millions. After being taught a lesson by Eminem one time, he was obviously much more polite to Su Xiao.

"Boss, that matter is done and everyone is dealt with."

Zoss didn't fully enter the room, just stuck his head out.

"I know, get out of here."

The way Su Xiao and Zos talk is completely different from that of Wulf. Wulf is a subordinate who can stand in the sun, while Zos is completely hidden in the darkness.

"One more thing."

Zoss didn't have any angry expression, he knew that this would only happen when he was talking to a human being.

"explain."

Su Xiao lit a cigarette and thought about who he should take with him to the Duke's Manor tonight. He heard that the cook there was very good at cooking and was quite famous in the Holy City.

"Yinyu plans to assassinate you tonight, I will lead someone to stop it?"

Zoth has obviously adapted to his current identity, the fang in the night, which suits his style.

"Kill them all."

"I understand, I need 100 elites."

"Go to Wolfe, you will have a share of the military expenses there."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Zoss winked at Su Xiao and frantically tested on the edge of death.



At eight o'clock that night, the bright moon hung high in the Duke's Manor, in the banquet hall.

As the owner of the manor, the young Duke was of course sitting in the first place. Behind him stood an old man with white hair, a thin face, and a stern look. This was none other than the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Walkley.

What is puzzling is that the maids who serve the delicacies are all older, conservatively estimated to be over 50 years old. They are as ugly as they are, so ugly that they are rare, and even make people doubt whether these are really human beings? They are not frontier fortresses.

Alien species? Obviously, these maids are 'carefully' selected.

"Duke Cuculin, please."

The Chancellor of Finance has the demeanor of an old gentleman in both his dress and his speech, and he is neither humble nor overbearing. However, the young Duke is a little afraid of him. Rather than fear, it is actually more like respect and fear for the elders.

The little Duke, who had been avoiding Su Xiao when he saw him before, now looks much more natural with the Finance Minister standing behind him.

Su Xiao only tasted a few mouthfuls before losing interest in these delicacies. They were far inferior to Xia's cooking skills, just like the gap between green quality and epic level.

Da Mao Wang was captured by the delicious food. After all, she was here to search for the violator this time. Of course Da Mao Wang would be there. She had the temporary authority to sense the violators. Apart from Da Mao Wang, Su Xiao only brought Bu Bu with her.

Wang and Eminem.

The moment he entered the banquet hall, Su Xiao felt that the violator must have been here, which made him focus on the little duke.

Sensing Su Xiao's gaze, the Finance Minister took a step forward, vaguely intending to protect the young duke.

The Chancellor of Finance placed his hand on the young Duke's shoulder. He was like an eagle protecting its young. Although he was old, his eyes were still sharp.

But the Finance Minister could feel that the person sitting opposite them seemed to be an evil beast, grinning ferociously at them, ferocious, full of blood, and so powerful that it made people despair.

"tasty!"

King Daimao picked up the fork next to him and inserted it on the dining table with a clang.

"Thank you for your compliment."

The Minister of Finance breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at King Da Mao and nodded.

Su Xiao looked at the two people in confusion. He just glanced at the little duke, but for some reason, the expressions of the two people were so rich.

Su Xiao looked at Bubuwang and asked with her eyes, did he look very vicious?

BooBoo Wang spread his dog's paws, which means that it doesn't feel anything at all. It's the same as usual. Is there something wrong with the charm attribute?.m.
