Chapter 756 Financial Issues
"..." Li Huailin remembered this matter at this time. It was a bit complicated when talking about Sixi's problem here, because I don't know why this guy became his second wife. Although he has not admitted it yet, it seems that everyone in the empire has already agreed to this point... Although Sixi, who has a territory, never goes back, has given all of them to his subordinates to take care of him, he also regards himself as the duchess and lives here.
"Please let me explain." Li Huailin said quickly.
"Well, you said." Su Ruoyan here did not run away like in the TV series, saying "I don't listen, I don't listen" and said to Li Huailin very calmly.
Li Huailin naturally had nothing to hide and told Su Ruoyan about Sixi's situation and explained the relationship between the two slightly.
"Oh, that's it." I heard that Sixi is an NPC and a 12-year-old child. Su Ruoyan's brows relaxed a little, "Why did I feel that my brain was a little too short after walking with you for a long time? You usually play games like this?"
"Ahem... I do encounter strange things," said Li Huailin, "It's better to have a meeting first."
Soon everyone here entered the conference room, and the meeting immediately began. Ministers and deputy ministers of several departments arrived. Su Ruoyan also checked the financial list of the territory provided by Oliveira in the conference room.
"The transport troops needed by Lord Lord have set out. As the Lord Lord ordered, we have collected the largest number of transport troops as much as possible. The 1,000 spear guards also set out. The leader is Knight Rigi, but it is expected to be three days before we can reach the front line of the battlefield." The Minister of Interior Gerte reported here.
"Is it three days? It doesn't matter, I should be able to catch up." Li Huailin nodded. "Where are other news, where has the Second Legion gone?"
"The Second Legion has not arrived near the city of Caselo. At the speed of this marching, it is expected that it will reach the front line position tomorrow at noon." Foreign Minister Gwyneth, who just returned from vacation, said, "But the actions of the undead here are a bit incomprehensible."
"Oh? I can't understand what?" Li Huailin asked.
"The undead troops directly advanced four human cities on the first day after the declaration of war, but it is now the third day of war. The undead troops suddenly seemed to have lost the attack. So far, let alone the city, it seems that there is no intention of attack. They directly camped at the city of Degara for about twenty miles, and neither attacked nor retreated, and they didn't know what they were doing." Gwyneth said.
"Degala City now has 1,500 troops to defend, and the city is strong, so the opponent should not dare to attack casually." said Dramo on this side.
"This is impossible. Even if Degara City is difficult to capture, there are still many human towns or villages around. Even if you don't attack Degara City, you can use the corpses of villagers to make some undead troops to increase the number of their troops. However, the undead people here seem to have no intention at all. I think the other party must be brewing a conspiracy." Gwyneth said seriously.
"Will the undead troops set up an ambush on our reinforcements?" Dramo said here after thinking about it.
"You can see it too?" Li Huailin said.
"Really? Lord Lord also thinks it is?" said Dramo.
"I'm sorry, the possibility is almost zero." Li Huailin said. "For other situations, McCann is a very cautious general. Even if he marchs in the territory, he will send a large number of troops to investigate every time, so the possibility of a rush is too low. The terrain in the direction of Degara City is really wide, so it is very difficult to find any ambush locations. Even if there are. McCann will definitely check these places very carefully. You can find this problem. McCann will definitely pay great attention. If I want the undead general to ambush McCann, I will probably be cheated very badly, so this should be impossible."
"If the undead tribe does not attack the human city, that is to say, the other party knows that our reinforcements are coming soon. Are they planning to defeat our reinforcements with ease?" Dramo said again.
"The number varies too much. Even if our troops are tired from marching in a hurry, the possibility of the other party defeating us head-on is very small." Li Huailin said.
"Lord, I have a question, I don't know if I can ask," Dramo said suddenly.
"you say."
"I don't know why you slowed down our troops and set off, and let the Second Legion rush to the battlefield. I'm not stupid, and I really can't see what you think." Dramo said here.
"You can see that I'm just messing around." Li Huailin said, "Where is our troops now?"
"Oh, Minister Regg has arrived in Migvanje with his troops." Delamo said, pointing to a city on the map, "According to the instructions of the lord, every time the garrison is garrisoned, the garrison of the big city should be Migvanje tonight. However, at this speed, the time to arrive at the battlefield will be about eleven days, which means that it will take about 8 days to arrive at the battlefield."
"Oh?" Li Huailin looked at the map, then nodded, "Just maintain this speed."
"Yes." Deramo nodded here.
"Tomorrow you and Bruno and me go to the battlefield." Li Huailin said.
"Yes, Lord Lord."
"Ruoyan, has the territory finance seen any problem?" After the conversation here, Li Huailin asked Su Ruoyan who was reading the statement next to him. Li Huailin could not understand the financial statements of these territories at all, and he was overwhelmed at first glance.
"If you ask the wrong question, you should ask what is the right place to see." Su Ruoyan here said, "This thing glanced over and thought it was the company's statement that was going to go bankrupt. Looking at the income and expenditure ratio, this is the first time I have seen a financial statement with an expenditure of 11 times higher than the income..."
"Sounds like the problem is serious?" Li Huailin said.
"I knew you would be like this when you manage your territory." Su Ruoyan here said, "It's okay if the business shrinks. What's the situation when you buy pet eggs with hundreds of thousands of gold? What's the cost of the army is too much. 5,000 standing troops, horse farms, armor casting, and weapons procurement. Military expenditure accounts for more than 50% of the total expenditure. The strength of your financial official is really powerful. Such income and expenditure can support the development of the territory..."
"So I said I won't care..." Li Huailin said.
"Okay, okay, leave all the financial problems to me, so you can save yourself a lot of trouble." Su Ruoyan said, "Looking at the remaining finances, there should be no problem with your money and food in this war. Try to end the battle within half a month."
"Oh, half a month, that's enough, but I'm going to grab money this time, so I should be able to earn a lot of money after the end." Li Huailin said.
"That's the best." Su Ruoyan said, "Otherwise, your territory will become the first debt principality in the mainland in a few months."
"Is there any other problem with others?" Li Huailin said.
"Sir, I have it." Foreign Minister Gwyneth said, raising his hand.
"Oh? Gwyneth, what's wrong with you?" Li Huailin asked.
"Lord, I am going to submit my resignation to you," said Gwyneth.
"Oh? Why?" Li Huailin asked a little strangely.
"Lord, I'm going to remarry, and I just found out that I'm two months pregnant. Because I'm a little old, I'm going to go home and take care of my baby, so I decided to quit my job here." Gwyneth said, "I'm going back this time to hand over the work. I recommend my adjutant Yamara to take over my job. The diplomatic department is very familiar with Yamara almost as well as mine."
"Oh? That's it." Li Huailin nodded, then opened the territory page here and looked at it. Although the attributes of this Yamara are not as high as Gwyneth, they still look OK. At least there should be no major problems. "Then congratulations, I agree to your resignation."
"Thank you Lord Lord," said Gwyneth here.
"Thank you, Lord," Yamara next to her said immediately, after all, she was promoted.
"Is there anything else?" Li Huailin looked around and seemed to have no one said anything else, so he said, "Okay, then start doing things separately, and wait until the war is over before talking about other things."
"Yes, Lord Lord." Everyone said.
After the meeting, the door of the conference room here just opened, Li Huailin saw Sixi in a dress appearing at the door of the conference room. Sixi was dressed very grandly today, and it looked like the outfit of a noble lady attending the party.
Carrying her skirt, Sisi walked up to Su Ruoyan, who was still staring at her very elegantly, and then leaned over and saluted, "Greetings, Madam, I am Sisi Ellentis Oribe, I'll greet you."
Such a grand greeting made Su Ruoyan feel a little unresponsive. She was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "What a cute girl."
Looking at Su Ruoyan smiling, Sixi relaxed a little while here, and it was impossible to say that it was not nervous. If Su Ruoyan, the main wife, didn't like him, Sixi didn't know what to do, but Su Ruoyan looked like she smiled kindly, and she probably didn't hate herself.
"Thank you, Madam," Sisi said withdrew.
"Wow, I'm a little uncomfortable with you making you look so decent." Li Huailin walked over and said.
"Lord, do you want me to inform the third lady to come?" The Minister of Interior Gerte came over here and asked again.
