Lampari XIII sat quietly in the small garden of the backyard of the palace, covered with a blanket, facing the warm sun that was rare in the early winter, and slowly looked at a report in his hand.
This report was submitted by the Ministry of Justice two days ago. He has seen it for the third time today, but he still looks very serious.
Because this report is a summary report before and after the Battle of the Murto Mountains, as a king who took the throne in the turmoil more than ten years ago, and then settled the turmoil in the most difficult situation, and sat down on the throne of the king, the current King Lampari XIII is more aware of the military than the previous Kings, and he values it more.
After more than a decade of standing, he knows that the conflicts between the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark in the North have been implicated in the entire Kingdom of Lampari.
Because of the suppression of the Sark Kingdom, the Kingdom of Lampari is forced to spend huge sums of gold coins on the town of the Northern Army every year. The military has spent almost half of the annual military expenditure on the Zhenbei Army. It was barely blocked by the Sak Kingdom.
However, the Kingdom of Lampari is also deeply immersed in this mud, and it must spend a lot of military expenses every year.
In fact, Lampari XIII is also aware of the strategy of the Sark Kingdom. The reason why the Sark Kingdom is not to launch a real all-out war and the success of the Lampari Kingdom is to rely on itself far more than Lampa. The kingdom of the kingdom, which is much more powerful, dragged down the kingdom of Lampari, and then the army won the Kingdom of Lampari without blood.
On the contrary, if it is really a desperate attempt to start a full-scale war, it may inspire the full resistance of the Kingdom of Lampari, and finally win. The Sak Kingdom is also a big injury. If you don't work well, you will benefit from the fishing of other countries.
But I know that I know. There is no way to solve this problem in the Kingdom of Lampari, because the national power of the Sark Kingdom is stronger than the Kingdom of Lampari, and it is absolutely active. It is not bad that the Kingdom of Lampari can barely support it. How can we find another way to counterattack?
This time the Battle of the Murto Mountains, although the Sark Kingdom began to look like an imposing manner, seems to want to launch in full, but in fact it has only grabbed the control of the Murto Mountains. Did not continue to advance.
This move, in fact, is clear that it is intended to further exert pressure on the two countries, forcing the Kingdom of Lampari to be forced to increase investment in the town of the Northern Army, making the kingdom of Lampari, which is overwhelmed by the kingdom, even worse.
However, the Sark Kingdom did not think that the North Army of the Kingdom of Lampari suddenly changed into a new equipment weapon, and also equipped with the magical power of the magical trebuchet, and then with almost no money. The pure steel arrow branches, hard and robbed the Murto Mountains from their hands.
In the end, the Zhenbei Army now fully controls the control of the Murto Mountains, and the Sak Kingdom is under tremendous pressure to increase its investment in the Wolf Army and the Tigers. Prevent the counterattack of the Zhenbei Army.
As for the counterattack of the Murto Mountains... Under the strong military support of the town’s northern army, it is simply impossible to imagine in the short term.
But in the report handed over by the Prime Minister of Lampari. What is uncharacteristic is not to ask the king for help, but to ask for help.
According to the statistics of the military, in the Battle of the Murto Mountains, although the Northern Army of the town performed heroic and regained control of the vital Murto Mountains, the military paid a price of 170,000 gold coins. With a one-time investment, almost the military’s military expenses this year have been smashed.
In order to maintain control of the Murto Mountains, the town’s current monthly expenses are above 40,000 gold coins.
Do not say anything else, the cost of transporting materials is more than 10,000 gold coins.
And this is the province of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the number saved by brainstorming.
In this report, the military has clearly listed all the data, and then clearly shows that the military has no money now. If the kingdom’s finances do not add additional funds, the military can’t support it, and it corresponds to this. The Murto Mountains will definitely change hands again.
At first glance, this report is like threatening to force the King to give money, but Lampari XIII is very clear that the military is telling the truth.
Because for the kingdom finance, he understands better than anyone in the kingdom.
The kingdom finances have no money, and the military has no money.
However, this is another problem that must be solved. Otherwise, the efforts made by the Zhenbei Army will be in vain, and the Kingdom of Lampari will be more passive.
However, if we find another way to add military funds to the military, the result is that the two countries have further penetrated this quagmire, which has worsened the kingdom's finances and formed a bad cycle of death.
How to crack this infinite loop?
Lampari XIII thought for a moment and picked up another report on the table next to him.
This report is a summary report of the Kingdom's autumn harvest submitted by the Kingdom Agriculture Department some time ago.
In this report, Bangta City was placed in a very prominent position.
The reason is simple, because in this autumn harvest, the achievements of Bangta City are too good, far beyond the performance of other cities in the kingdom.
In this report, the Agriculture Department praised the incumbent Lord Bangka City Lord Stark, and the first hero who called Bangta City to achieve such a good result in this autumn harvest should fully make the highest award. It is said that if every city in the kingdom can have such a strong grain output, then the Kingdom of Lampari will completely get rid of food troubles in the next few years, so that all the people will no longer suffer from famine.
After carefully reading the report, Lampari thirteen suddenly spewed a gas from his nostrils, snorted softly, his face passed a cold smile, and picked up another report. After watching it for a while, this mouth rose slightly, and the smile on his face turned to be gratified.
This report is a secret report, consisting of as many as dozens of sheets of paper.
If Xu is here, I will be shocked.
Because this thick report, all written about the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
For this report, Lampari XIII has seen it more carefully than the previous reports of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Department of Agriculture. In many cases, it will stop and think for a while. Will continue to watch.
It took almost an hour to see the full report. Lampari XIII laid down the report. Backing against the back of the chair, closing the eyes against the warm sunshine, it looks like a small moment, but from his crunching brows and the mouth of the peristaltic mouth from time to time, it clearly shows that he is actually in deep thought.
After a while, a slight footstep stepped into the garden, awakening Lampari XIII from his meditation.
He doesn't have to open his eyes, he knows. It must have been his favorite little daughter, Sevigny.
"Father, can you take time out to rest today?" The footsteps stopped in front of him, and then Servini gave a hint of surprise.
Lampari opened his eyes and revealed a gentle smile to Servini, pointing to a chair diagonally opposite, indicating that Sevigny sat down.
"Let's talk." When Sevigny sat down, Lampari XIII was short and authentic.
Sevigny knew that his father did not like to waste time, he nodded and handed a document in his hand to Lampari XIII.
"Is it about that guy too?" Lampari XIII did not reach out and asked, but asked Severni with a sly smile.
Heared the sneak peek in his tone. Severini’s face was slightly red, and the documents in his hand were handed over to Lampari XIII.
"You will know when you look at it."
Lampari XIII smiled. After taking the file and sweeping his eyes, the look immediately became solemn, and he sat straight up.
After he carefully looked through the full report, after a moment of contemplation, the right color asked Servini: "How much is it?"
Sevigny thought for a moment and replied: "With my understanding of Xu Yi, he said this and solemnly proposed this proposal to you. I think at least half of it is sure."
"Well, you can have half the confidence, which is very worth doing."
Lampari thirteen looked down at the report in his hand and laughed at himself.
"Oh, I can't think of what I have been doing for more than a decade, and I fell into the hands of this kid, but it was solved so easily. Losing him actually thought of going to the Principality of Constantine. I used to understand the land of the Principality of Constantine. Fertile, can produce a lot of food, but it is really no strength to fight down, you can only give up this idea."
Sevigny smiled slightly: "Father Wang, Xu also said that in the world, many things can be solved with money, without using force. In addition, he also said that things that can be solved with money are not what it is. event."
Lampari XIII couldn't help but look at his eyes: "This kid is easy to say. Their new flyer will make a lot of money. Of course he can say this kind of big words, but our kingdom finances will be like their chamber of commerce. Ample. Have the ability to make the same money for the entire Lampari Kingdom?"
Severini squinted and smiled: "Father, if Xu also really has a way to make the whole kingdom richer?"
Lampary thirteen saw a frown and looked at Sevigny: "Servigny, I know that you have always been very respectful of Xu, and I also agree that the magic industry led by the new Flyer has indeed changed the entire Bangta City. The face. But a country is different from a chamber of commerce and a city. It is not that simple."
"Don't try to see how to know." Servini shook his head. "Father Wang, our Lampari Kingdom has been on the road for hundreds of years, but it has not been improved. Now it is easy to see a slight change, why are you not determined to try? ?"
Lampari XIII stared at Sevigny for a while and sighed: "How can I not understand this? But there are many things in the kingdom, even if I can't easily decide."
"I understand." Servini nodded lightly. "I don't want you to make a huge change, I just hope that you can give more help to this change."
Lampari XIII smiled and said: "I know that you came here to give the kid a good idea. If it is not that he is already married, I really doubt if you are already planning to marry him.
Severini’s face was red, but he did not refute anything. He just stared at Lampari XIII:
Father, I am serious. Xu is still treated by the Earl of Stark. Our entire kingdom considers that if we don't give him some support, it will definitely discourage him. I feel that we can't lose him and the new Flyer Chamber of Commerce anyway."
"I don't disagree, but you didn't say what you want to ask him for this time, but how can I promise?" Lampari XIII laughed. "If you still ask for the territory, then don't say it, I can't agree. The last time I gave the kid a piece of land, the aristocratic parliament would have to quarrel. If you give him, I have to be bothered."
Sevignon had a meal and replied in a positive color: "I hope that you can give the New Flyer a free trade."
Lampari thirteenth stunned and immediately screamed: "This is impossible!" (To be continued.)
