Vol 3 Chapter 56: Leslie Leslie’s determination

It is not only Aki and Lei Ya who have been assigned a marriage without knowing it.
In the northern part of the Kingdom of Lampari, on the Murto Mountains, which is more than a thousand kilometers from the Xinfei Farm, Viscount Lesley looked at the letters in his hand, sneered with a sneer, and put his hands on the beautiful letter paper. The letter was torn into pieces in an instant, and then thrown at the side of the mountain.
During the time, countless pieces of shredded paper fell, as if there was another snow in the mountains.
Looking at the pieces of paper falling into the mountains disappeared, Viscount Leslie silently, looking back at the other colleagues in the northern army of the town, I thought they must be like other ordinary people, very envious of their origins in the Stark family This big aristocratic family, but does not know that as a descendant of the big aristocratic family, but also has a lot of involuntary places.
For example, in this letter sent by the mother, it shows that the family has set a marriage for him, and he is not allowed to have room for rejection.
The girl who is about to become his wife is the youngest daughter of the Aleman family patriarch. At the age of 23, according to the mother, she looks beautiful and gentle. She is very suitable as a wife, and the Viscount Leslie ends in Zhenbei. After two years of military service goals, he immediately returned to the city of Anweimar to get married.
For the mother's evaluation of this Alaiman, Viscount Lesley can only sneer.
Perhaps this Miss Aleman is indeed beautiful and gentle, but Leslie Leslie does not believe that the mother is directed at herself. The reason why Miss Aleman will become his wife is nothing more than The Aleman family is gone.
It is not unusual for aristocratic marriages. Viscount Leslie had long expected that he would encounter such a day.
He has resisted this kind of thing for nearly a decade. It’s hard to drag to the thirties now. But it can no longer drag on.
Looking at another letter in the hand that would be much simpler to contrast, Viscount Leslie showed a bitter smile.
"Compared with this, it is Xu this guy who is much more free than me. At least he can be with the girls he really likes."
Les Ion sighed and opened the letter sent by Xu Yi to watch it carefully.
The letter that Xu also sent to him was not so short among the parents. Instead, he briefly described to him the development plan of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and asked him about the current situation of the Zhenbei Army.
The focus of the inquiry was placed on the military situation of the Zhenbei Army.
If this question is asked by someone else. Inevitably, he will be accused of spying on military affairs. However, Xu also has a position in the military department, and the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce and the Military Logistics Department have deep cooperation. Xu also has the qualification to know these situations. .
I hope that these questions can also be asked to Major Macquarie, but only from the major statistics of Major McKelly, as for the specific details, of course, like the Viscount Leslie, they are in the north of the town. The people of the military are the clearest.
However, after seeing Xu’s problems in the letter, the Viscount Leslie smiled bitterly.
"How do you answer him?"
Viscount Lesley looked back and saw that he was using a magical hot water kettle that had been smashed by a corner because he accidentally fell on the ground. He thought that the Military Logistics Department would not replenish the Zhenbei Army. I am afraid that the armaments of the Zhenbei Army cannot keep up with the consumption. It will not take long for the Murto Mountains to fall again and fall back into the hands of the guys in the Sark Kingdom.
In the attack and defense of the Murto Mountains from the beginning of last year to the end of the year. Although the Zhenbei Army, with a large amount of high-quality armament supplied by the military, occupied the Murto Mountains in one fell swoop, and pressed the Sergeant Army and the Tigers of the Sark Kingdom to the northern Sark Kingdom of the Murto Mountains, but In the following six months, the Wolf Army and the Tigers have never given up the idea of ​​counterattack.
Despite the strong armaments of the Zhenbei Army, the Wolf Army and the Tigers did not gain any results. The Murto Mountains were still firmly in the hands of the Zhenbei Army, but because of the frequent fighting, the military expenditure of the Zhenbei Army It is very fast.
Since the second half of last year, the supply of the Military Logistics Department to the Zhenbei Army has been greatly weakened. After the winter, in addition to a few cars and cotton jackets, no other military equipment has been added.
Other town soldiers in the town can only complain in private, but they don't know exactly, but Leslie Lesley knows the specific reasons.
Very simple, the military has no money.
In the attack and defense of the Murto Mountains, the military department provided a large number of military departments in an uncharacteristic manner, which made the Zhenbei Army fascinated, but such a large military department was very costly.
Although the armor weapons are all created by the new arsenal through the magic machine tool, the cost is greatly reduced, saving a lot of money, but maintaining such a large amount of consumption still allows the Logistics Department to support it.
The previous question was also mentioned in a letter sent to the Viscounts of Leslie. He said in his heart that although many of the military supplies provided by the new Feishang to the military department have almost reached the full cost price, the military Still can't get the money to buy.
Xu also expressed deep concern about this situation.
If the military has not had enough funds, and the new Feishang Association will not be able to provide it for free, then the military supply of the Zhenbei Army will probably have problems.
Once the Sark Kingdom’s army counterattacks in the spring, the situation in the Murto Mountains will be extremely dangerous.
In the letter, Xu also hinted to Viscount Leslie that if he is aware of the danger, he must leave as soon as possible to ensure his life.
Now in this recently sent letter, Xu also clearly expressed his worries.
The military has not issued any orders to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for more than three months, which proves that the military has completely failed to support the military spending of the Zhenbei Army.
This proves from the side that the current situation of the Zhenbei Army is already very dangerous.
Looking at Xu at the end of the letter, once again hinted that if you see the machine is not good, you must find an opportunity to leave in advance, Viscount Leslie could not help but sigh and gently shake his head.
Of course he knows that Xu is also kind. But he has served in the town of North Army for nearly two years. Even if he is mainly responsible for logistics work. However, he still experienced a lot of blood and hurricanes with his colleagues, and he had a very deep affection for the Zhenbei Army.
Although it is known that the situation of the Zhenbei Army is not good, the Viscount Leslie is not going to give up here to escape.
But he also knows that his own strength is extremely limited. With his current ability, he can't solve the real problem of the Zhenbei Army. That is, the military has no money.
Thinking of the lack of money, Viscount Lesley had a deep dislike of the Count of Stark, who is far away from Bangta City, his dear. I hate the idea that my family has always insisted on.
Obviously there are better ways to make the whole kingdom become richer. The rotten guys only care about their own interests, deliberately ignore all of this, and even vigorously suppress.
In their eyes, the rise and fall of the entire kingdom is a success or failure. The lives of all the people are better or worse. I am afraid that it is not as important as the long-term survival of their own family.
"Hey! A group of idiots! Now the world has changed with the emergence of Xu Yi, you still have to hold that old concept, and then go on like this, you yourself will become the sinner who led to the elimination of the whole family!

Viscount Leslie raised his eyes. After half a meditation, take out two stationery. I wrote a letter to Xu Yi, which outlined the difficulties faced by the Zhenbei Army in the letter. I hope that Xu will help solve this problem as much as possible.
The second letter is a reply to the mother.
In this letter, Viscount Leslie said that he was willing to accept the family arrangement and returned to the city of Anweimar to marry Miss Aleman. At the same time, he revealed his other meaning in a very serious tone.
He, Leslie Stark, will use the best efforts to win the position of the Stark family patriarch!
###
When the Viscount Leslie was writing a letter seriously, Lampari XIII was watching the year-end financial report of the Lampari Kingdom in the palace, and a smile appeared in the corner of his mouth.
This year's financial statements are much better than last year. Compared with last year's statistics, only the total revenue of less than two million gold coins. According to statistics, all the fiscal revenues of the kingdom suddenly broke through to three million. Gold coins can be said to have made a leap.
However, as a king of a country, the perspective of the problem of Lampari XIII is certainly not so simple.
Two years ago, the annual income of the Kingdom of Lampari was only over one million gold coins, and since last year, it has made a leap for two consecutive years.
The reason why there are such obvious changes, as can be seen from this financial statement, up to 90% of the increase in this part comes from commercial tax.
If the focus is moved to the commercial tax, it can be seen from the additional report of the Commercial Department that the increase of more than 90% of the commercial tax, of which up to 40% and more than 40% is from the Chamber of Commerce for the production of magic machinery. .
In the report, the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce is constantly mentioned.
In the past year, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce paid tax revenue of more than 300,000 gold coins to Bangta City in the first half of the year, and 110,000 gold coins were turned into the national treasury.
In the second half of the year, because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was transferred to the private territory of Viscount Xu Yi, all the taxes paid by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will be directly attributed to Xu Yi personally, and finally will be handed over to the state treasury by Xu. 170,000 gold coins.
In addition, because the new Feishang Association has obtained the free trade rights, the new Feishang will not pass the Bangta City in the trade with other countries, but will be directly paid to the national treasury.
Although the investment and construction of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Black Rice Wasteland, the Kingdom of Constantine and the Kingdom of Rulson in the second half of the year has just been rolled out, the tax paid is still as high as 130,000 gold coins.
So last year, the Chamber of Commerce of the New Flyer Chamber of Commerce paid a huge sum of more than 500,000 gold coins to the national treasury.
This has not counted all the taxation of the Chamber of Commerce related to the production of magical machinery that has been affected by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
If these are counted together, then even more than 1.5 million gold coins received from the more than three million gold coins collected by the Kingdom of Lampari last year were affected by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Moreover, although the commercial tax increase of other chambers of commerce is not related to magic machinery, it still reaches the influence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Take the Armani Chamber of Commerce, which specializes in the production of clothing in Bangta City. For example, the production capacity of the Armani Chamber of Commerce has increased significantly with the help of the magic textile machine developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Although the clothes sold have different price cuts, However, as the sales volume increased significantly, the overall profit has leap.
According to statistics, last year, the Armani Chamber of Commerce paid a total of 320,000 gold coins.
In addition, for example, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, which is mainly responsible for laying roads everywhere in the Kingdom, also paid a commercial tax of 260,000 gold coins last year.
Another example is the Lectra Chamber of Commerce...
......
After watching it for a while, Lampari XIII suddenly discovered that the major chambers of commerce that originally belonged to Bangta City actually added to the huge commercial tax of the treasury close to 1.5 million gold coins.
The total tax paid by Bangta City this year is only 190,000 gold coins.
Compared to last year, it is undoubtedly far worse.
Looking at this inconspicuous contrast, Lampari XIII couldn't help but sneer.
"I have to look at it, the guys still have a face to say." (To be continued.)
