Chapter 423: Controversy over border construction

"That is to say, what you need is the entire Bolivia city defense construction, no need to manage other cities?" After a while of discussion, Jia Zhengjin understood the thoughts of these ministers. They actually want to strengthen the defense of the capital and protect their own security! The ninth-order powerhouse regards these defenses as nothing and will not degrade themselves. For those below Tier VIII, as long as enough arrow towers and barbed wire are built, coupled with bombs and mines, it will be difficult for General Mark to attack the enemy.
"The capital, Bolivia, is the most important heartland of the Principality of Hayes, and of course it is the top priority!" General Mark replied. "This is what we expect. If Lord Keane can accept it, we are willing to raise enough money!"
"But only building defenses in Bolivia, how to deal with the imperial coalition?" Jia Zhengjin said, "The four empires cannot always be held down by the orc empire, and they will definitely think of other ways to pull out the troops! When the soldiers are under the city, how can they resist?"
"This..." General Mark said suddenly. In fact, he also thought about it. Of course, he could keep his guard desperately. If he couldn't hold it, he would surrender to the coalition forces and keep everyone's name. But such words cannot be said to Jia Zhengjin face to face.
The rest of the Ministers of Culture and Martial Arts have the same idea, there is no doubt about this.
Jia Zhengjin saw their reaction and guessed roughly. But he didn't really cooperate with these people, but just let them serve as the outposts to prolong the imperial coalition. As long as you can hold the Imperial Coalition forces for a while, it is enough to achieve your goal! As for whether they are dead or alive, whether they are forced to surrender to each other again under pressure and become like a wall of grass, this is not what he cares about.
After all, everyone uses each other for their own benefit!
Thinking of this, he immediately said: "Bolivia's city defense is no problem, but the two border cities near the four empires must also set up defense circles!"
"Snowwind City and North Ibaraki?" General Mark thought for a moment, and simply threw the pot out, "Duke Falei, what do you think?"
Seeing him throw the problem to Falei, who is only eight years old, Jia Zhengjin knew that this guy deliberately dumped the pot. The old man obviously only wanted to consolidate the city’s defenses, and he didn’t care much about the border cities. And other officials may think the same, so they will not be happy to contribute to the border city defense. But in the face of Jia Zhengjin's request, they were not good enough to refuse directly, fearing to annoy Jia Zhengjin, and it would be miserable to call in the Dragon Clan to kill the city!
So simply throw this pot to Falei. This kid is only eight years old, and even his successor is just a puppet. What they promised is the construction of Bolivia, and naturally only this part of the money will be paid out. And if the Grand Duke agreed with his own words, the city defense construction money would require him to find a way, because now the treasury is empty! Even if they can't raise money, Jia Zhengjin will be able to get rid of them if he wants to settle the bill.
I really didn't expect these to look so decent, especially Lewis's grandfather, General Mark, on the surface is a decent and honest general, so many bad ideas in the stomach!
Jia Zhengjin despised such a person very much, but could not show it. After all, he has to use these guys to get enough time for himself. So he turned his attention to Falei and asked, "Dr. Falei, what do you think?"
"Everything is up to Master Keane!" To his surprise, the eight-year-old kid beside him actually knew how to kick the ball back. This ability to shirk responsibility does not have to be General Mark's difference! Jia Zhengjin is quite speechless, so he hates politics and hates to manage such a country. It is correct to not incorporate the Principality of Hayes into the Holy Dragon City, otherwise every day will have to fight with people!
Even such a young child has been damaged for a long time, this is what he hates the most!
After thinking for a while, Jia Zhengjin said straight away: "The construction of frontier defense is not indispensable, this is about the victory of the battle! But the construction cost is very large, you must find a way to solve this problem!"
His meaning is very clear, that is to say directly that I want to build up in the border defense, and you can't make out the money! This is a bit of a nature, but it is also the most effective method! Now the people of the Principality of Hayes are still afraid of the Yu Wei of the dragon clan, and they dare not violate his orders. If there is an accident in the future, Connie did not return in time, and if the Holy Dragon City was attacked by the enemy, there would be no such situation.
Therefore, he can't let go of some gold coins while he is now.
Regarding Jia Zhengjin's fairly straightforward expression, General Mark's face suddenly appeared embarrassed: "Master Keane, we can only raise a limited amount of gold coins. It is already very difficult to undertake a construction in Bolivia! Gold coins are used for domestic expenses! After all, all the money from the previous treasury was shipped to Shenglong City..."
General Mark is also very straightforward, saying that all the money in our treasury is given to you! Now everyone still needs to raise money to build Bolivia, and also to raise money to supplement the treasury, certainly no more people can be used to consolidate the border defense!
Jia Zhengjin frowned slightly: "What should I do? Anyway, the construction of frontier defense can't be less, otherwise it makes no sense!"
"But Lord Keane, all of us present, it is very difficult to assume a Bolivia!" Mark replied, "There really is no more money to subsidize the border cities!"
"Since you can raise funds in the capital, why can't you let the officials and nobles of the border cities also contribute money?" Jia Zhengjin said, "You don't have to pay your own money, each city will be funded by the local officials and nobles, or rich businessmen! OK?"
"Report Lord Keane!" Mark shook his head in embarrassment. "Although in theory, the border cities of UU reading www.uukanshu.com should follow the Bolivian order. But in fact, each city has a large family control, which is related to their Personal interests! We directly notify each other with laws and regulations, which may not achieve very good results! Especially now that the Grand Duke Troy has stepped down, all cities have not been attentive, and it is good to have no independence from the soldiers. Pushing them too tight will push them to The enemy camp!"
"Then you said that all but one city is under control?" Jia Zhengjin suddenly showed a faint expression of anger.
"This..." General Mark and the others were only promised not to dare to say anything.
Both sides fell into deathly silence.
Jia Zhengjin stared at these people, and he was really upset. But General Mark and Wen Wuqun did not dare to provoke him, simply pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Facing this stalemate, Farai, who has been quiet and quiet, suddenly said: "Master Keen, my father has a good relationship with Xuefeng Chengshou, and Xuefeng City has a close relationship with North Ibaraki. Maybe my father can go to convince Xuefeng City and Bei Ibaraki to prepare enough funds for the city defense construction!"
Are you really a kid? Jia Zhengjin turned to look at him, dumbfounded.
