Chapter 379: 　Funding

"Hello!"
The door opened, Alan looked back, and Adele strode in. Behind her, followed by several maids, each holding a silver plate with various dishes on it. They looked at Adele and Allen with a deep smile on their faces. Adele reached out and pointed at the next table, and the maids put the dishes on the table.
"this is?"
Adele walked up to Ellen and lay down on her waist and said, "No matter how busy you are at work, you can't forget to eat, my Lord City Lord!"
The girl exuded an indescribable sense of oppression, and Allen shrank back with a dry smile. Adele was so close at this distance that a pair of Xiufeng silhouettes were already faintly visible under the neckline.
After the maids went out, Alan asked the girl to press on the chair. He shrugged, picked up the knife and fork and seriously wiped out the food on the table. Adele is much more elegant. The knife in her hand can always dexterously cut the right meat/grains on the steak, and then put it into her mouth with a fork. After chewing for a while, send it into the stomach.
While eating, Adele said: "I have read the recent financial report in the city. During this period, our expenditure gap is too big, but our income is just a drop in the bucket. If this continues, it will soon be unable to sustain it."
"I know that I just swept Dick's nest a few days ago and got some loot. Selling them will be a lot of income." Allen has already begun to eliminate the first ●+, ww√w. Lined up.
"What about then?" Adele said in a huff: "Are you planning to make money by sweeping the den of thieves? Lord Allen, there is only one Dick in the Blood Rock Wasteland."
"Then what's your opinion?" Allen asked humbly.
Adele pursed her mouth, lifted her chin slightly and said, "You finally asked the right person."
"You know, your subordinates don't necessarily make everyone clean and honest. I have been walking around the city recently. Except for the smaller scale, the mansion of those adults is no worse than your city lord's mansion in other respects." Daier was born in an aristocratic family, and his appreciation for appreciation is beyond Alan's. She smiled and said: "I'm sure that the private property in the hands of these big and small officials will not be less, this is a ready-made wealth."
Allen was surprised: "Do you want me to confiscate their property?"
"Of course not, then they would have no choice." The girl raised a finger and said, "Fundraising. We simply treat urban construction as a business, raise funds from officials and civilians, and raise funds in the form of stocks." Of course, they shouldn’t know what the stock is. We might as well try another method, such as debt. In the future, the city’s profits can be distributed according to the proportion of capital."
"You can also consider opening up to merchants, such as those in Violet Harbor. They should have more abundant funds. Merchants will not refuse to use money for investment and make money. In this way, our finances The situation will improve, and a large amount of funds will also help accelerate the development of the city."
Allen's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good way. Adele, your little head is good."
"Huh, don't put a high hat on this lady. If you are sincere, it would be better to think about rewarding me!"
"What do you want?" Allen asked casually, and took a glass of red wine next to him.
"I want to marry you."
Allen almost didn't spit out a sip of wine. He coughed a few times and looked at Adele and said, "Are you kidding me?"
Adele stood up, and under the light of the light, there was an atmosphere of silence in the girl's body for some reason. Allen found out that Adele was wearing a skirt today instead of the usual neutral clothes. After the modified skirt, the skirt's legs are piled with lace to create a fluffy feeling. A pair of thin legs stretched out from the bottom of the skirt, and the light outlines the beautiful legs.
Allen couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and the atmosphere in the room seemed a little ambiguous. He just wanted to find an excuse to slip away, but saw Adele coming over. The girl let her hair unravel, and the randomly scattered hair softened Adele's sharp silhouette. She walked all the way to Ellen, stretched her legs, and climbed up the chair in a kneeling posture.
The chest, which had grown a little bulging, almost hit Allen's face.
Adele lowered her head, her hair slid down, covering her and Alan's faces. In the faint light that penetrated through the hair, Allen only saw the girl's two delicate red lips.
Zhu lips lightly opened, and Adele whispered: "Do I look like a joke?"
"Isn't it appropriate to talk about this now?" Allen hurriedly tried to push her away, but the two were too close, and as soon as they stretched out their hands, they pressed a ball of soft/flesh.
Adele groaned softly, and instead of retreating, she almost hit Allen's chest.
When the situation was about to get out of hand, suddenly the door was pushed open, and Lucy's excited voice sounded from outside the door: "Ellen, look, I have already untied the box...Huh, what are you doing?"
Adele raised her head, stretched out her hand to gather her hair, and raised her chest demonstratively, so Allen's out-of-position hand looked so garish. Lucy's small mouth opened into an "o" shape, and Adele snorted, "Allen said I feel better than you, double ponytail."
"What!" Lucy stretched out her hand and patted herself on her chest. "You dare to compare with Miss Ben because of your cherry-like thing?"
Adele sneered: "That's better than your two green plums!"
"..." Allen interrupted: "Shall we discuss some other topics?"
"You shut up!" the two women said in unison.
Adele jumped down and stretched her waist and said to Lucy: "My lady is full. If you haven't eaten yet, you can stay. There is a lot of food left."
She blinked and left with a smile. Lucy couldn't hear her puns, stomped her feet bitterly, closed the door, and said angrily, "What did you do just now?"
"Don't do anything, don't listen to Adele's nonsense, it was just an accident just now." Allen raised his forehead.
"Hmph, if I didn't arrive in time, she would eat you."
Alan stretched out his hand to embrace her, and said, "Am I like that easy to eat?"
Lucy looked at him seriously and nodded: "Like!"
Allen snorted and patted her fan/butt: "Say, what were you excited about just now?"
Lucy raised the box in her hand, which was the box of deception obtained from the cemetery of the ancestors of Bymon. She triumphantly said: "I have unlocked the mechanism of the box. There is a ciphertext and a map inside. There are no signs on the map. I think the answer should be in the ciphertext. But to unlock the ciphertext, I still need some time."
"Ciphertext? Map?" Allen shook his head and said: "I feel more and more that this planet is not simple. Not long ago, I just learned that there are Naga people in this world. Roger and they call Naga people aliens. From their words, there should be a lot of alien species like this."
Lucy patted the box and said, "When I unlock the ciphertext, maybe I can unlock some of the secrets."
"Ok."
"That..." Lucy hesitated and asked, "Does she feel good?"
Allen said dumbly: "Don't worry about this problem."
The next day, Allen met Kira. Belmode brought her here. Allen did not forget what he promised Belmode before. When he saw Kira, he smiled and said: "Belmode has helped me a lot, and it is foreseeable that his future The role will become more and more important. So in return, I want to ask for him. Miss Kira, I wonder if you would stay and follow me with Belmode?"
Kira looked at Belmode and smiled calmly: "Of course I do, sir."
"That's great." Allen blinked at Belmode, and said: "Then Miss Kira, you are an adventurer, and I want to leave it to you to deal with things that will overlap with the Association of Adventurers in the future. Now I have a task for you. I hope to recruit adventurers who can work for me for a period of time through the Adventurers Association."
"What are your requirements?"
"First, the deadline is at least one year. Second, I don't need them to be strong, but they must have certain talents. For example, they are familiar with the geographical situation of the empire, or they are good at inquiring about the news.
"I probably know what you mean."
Allen nodded and looked at Belmode again. Kira knew that the two had something to discuss, so she left first. After she left, Allen said directly: "I need you to go to the Black Iron Fort."
"Oh, hope it's an interesting task."
"Probably not that interesting." Allen shook his head and smiled: "We have a troublesome neighbor. I just learned about this not too long ago~EbookFREE.me~ Sir Sharon of Black Iron Fort, he has A daughter married Maude. And we cleaned Maude's entire family, it is difficult to protect Sir Sharon from resenting it. If so, then this war will be fought sooner or later. Before that, I hope more Learn more about the knight, his troops, the strong and other information."
"It sounds boring, but I took it. As for Kira, thank you for your arrangement, boss."
Allen said: "It's okay, as long as you don't worry about my wallet in the future. Even though I don't have much money."
The two looked at each other and smiled, when someone knocked on the door, the guard said outside: "My lord, Mr. Roger's representative is here."
In the next few days, representatives of Reese and the Lily Chamber of Commerce also came to Storm City. In the end, the spoils Allen got from Dick were exchanged for two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins. This money will be used for steel mills and other matters, and at the same time begin to recruit craftsmen in the territory. The city is like a machine that has started its engine, and its components are starting to work.
(On the last day of the long holiday, taking advantage of the sunshine, I hurriedly took a family stroll outside and left~~)
