The Amber Sword: Act thirty-two expansion (thirteen) (third)
The thirty-second act expansion (thirteen) (third more)
But the management of Wealth left by Grudin was once quite confusing. On the one hand, Brando gave Amandina, which is now the basic already to become its deputy, the absolute disposal of this Wealth, but later promised that Romaine could control this Wealth came to complete the re-planning of the business in the Trentheim area and the local building.
Even later, even Ciel, three Head Commanders, and Master Artisan Bolu have a certain degree of use rights, and they do not need to pass through the hands of others when they call some of the resources they need.
Brando was originally arranged just for the sake of convenience. In the past game, although he served as Head Commander of a period of time, it was completed with the assistance of game system. game will systematically record the storage of Guild warehouse. Entry and extraction -- even assists in formulating some simple budgets.
But he does n’t have the help here. In fact, when it comes to the end, he realizes that he does n’t have much management of experience.
So soon, he found that one's own's finances became chaotic. After overlapping in many aspects, it caused a considerable conflict. In the end, Little Romaine personally found Amandina, and proposed that one person be responsible for management and one person be responsible for recording, so as to bring down this nearly collapsed management system Stability.
The Brando's financial system also had its prototype for the first time.
He glanced at the accounts --, of course to a large extent, and didn't understand. Romaine has a set of one's own recording methods. According to her, this method was taught by her aunt; but according to Ciel's, those symbols are likely to be cryptic words between witch. However, Brando doesn't care. If anyone around him is the most reliable, then I am afraid that besides summoned creature, it is Romaine and Freya.
After a brief glance, Brando and raises head looked at the outside. At this moment, the argument was constantly coming from the outside. already lasted for a long time. Among them, Jutta has the loudest voice, Kalun is on the side, Master Artisan Bolu occasionally inserts a sentence, and Amandina speaks the least. The persuasive Medissa said his voice was almost dumb, but it seemed that no one could convince anyone.
"What are they arguing about?" he asked.
Little Romaine immediately shook his head happily, mimicking the tone of Amandina and prolonged his voice and said, "I only knew Chai Migui, Lord Thane --"
Brando, suddenly, already faintly guessed the core of the outside dispute.
...
The dispute in the courtyard already lasted for a long time a period of time --
Amandina frowns at the people in front of him. Although the damsel still maintains basic courtesy on the surface, in fact his heart is almost annoying.
Lord Thane wants to build an one's own army, which she certainly supports. She also knows that Brando gave Jutta, Fern, Tiger Sparrow, and Kalun a quest / mission. Even if they selected some people from commoner in Fir City, they were ready to set up the shelves of the future private army.
But the problem is not here.
Fir City has a population of nearly 15,000. The autumn harvest has passed. In fact, the city's grain storage is tight enough to eat the second year of Month of Thunderous. In other words, these extra mercenary rations cannot even be guaranteed, and they must rely on trade.
On the other hand, I am afraid that Trentheim will face a lot of warfare. During the war, the soldier's ration share will be different from that on weekdays, and it will almost double. Not to mention the need to reserve grain for spring plowing and replanting the next year. Working men need as much food as women.
Adding these food gaps together is quite incredible.
Not to mention that Troglodyte in the forest also needs food. This part of the food was previously provided by Grudin, but Grudin doesn't care how many people starve to death in their territory, they can't.
Moreover, if you want further to control the entire Fir Tree Barony, this food gap will become even more incredible. Amandina Now already knows that in the year of Year of Flourishing Blossom and Summer Leaf, the crops in the south of Aouine's were generally poorly harvested.
One aspect is the cause of the climate, and the other is the Madara's invasion.
Therefore, you have to face another problem when purchasing food. This is because of the well-known reasons. The war in the south only passed, and the war in the north is about to start. Aouine's can be said to be overcast at this moment.
The collateral consequence of the war is that food becomes more Stability than the precious metal in terms of equivalents. In other words, the price of food will rise, and I am afraid it is not even a little bit.
As Aouine's largest *** trading port, the merchants of Ampere Searl will not know the current situation. These traitors will not slow down their hands and feet because of pity, they will only take the opportunity to drive up prices.
Therefore, the prospects for purchasing food are not bleak.
Amandina already *** has been foreheaded many times for this matter, but at half past one, I still can't think of any good way. She considered silver mine, which was far away in Shavrund, but on military issues, she could only suggest it as a deputy. If Brando rejects this proposal, then she can only consider the issue from the resources she has.
Besides, she knows that Minteye and Pallas' are close at hand. I am afraid that one's own Lord Thane will not be able to pull away for a while.
For this matter, in fact, even the Romaine ojou-sama, which has always been our own business, has been well-behaved to postpone the one's own plan.
But at this time, Jutta came to her to arrange for the recruitment of private troops; but recruiting first needs to spend money, especially in this season, maybe double the money, and the second recruited soldiers also need rations. If you have to train, the ration gap will be even bigger.
Amandina can hardly imagine the consequences.
She finally persuaded the other party to let this female mercenary commander set aside the recruitment of private troops, at least until the people in the territory settled down. But at this time Correct, Master Artisan Bolu also came, without mentioning other, Correct asked for money.
It turned out that Brando asked him to build a workshop as soon as possible, but whether to build a workshop or not to make enchanted armour, it first required a lot of manpower and material resources. Not to mention that Trentheim does not produce iron, even training blacksmith apprentices also requires a lot of money.
Bolu was born as a court Master Artisan, and never needs to be considered for these outsiders, so of course the first idea that arises in the absence of these things is of course --!
Here is a wave, and Kalun is killed again. Of course, he wants money. However, he did not come for the purpose of recruiting, but for the funding of mercenary.
As we all know, there is a loss in fighting. At the moment, the Mercenary Company who hired mercenary commander in Fir City at this moment can be said to be attached to the tree of Brando under the name of mercenary, but it can actually be said to be an alternative personal soldier.
Without Mercenary's normal economic sources, the loss of equipment and supplementary quest / mission will naturally fall on the Lord Thane head of Brando; and Brando originally maintained a special employment relationship with these mercenary due to one's own considerations. It ’s just that everyone is now on a boat, and Kalun understands that the group is short of money, so there is no mention of employment expenses.
But mercenaries is about to start a series of wars immediately, but it ’s urgent to add equipment, so he ca n’t stop. And to supplement the loss including armour, arrow(s) and weapons, of course, we must first mention a word, money.
damsel was almost as big as a fight, and she did n’t have enough money at all. But she hasn't figured out a proper way here, but a few people over there are noisy because of a few words.
for a moment What you need to put aside later, my things are more important, such lines are flying all over the sky, Amandina can barely persuade the fight at the beginning, but can't help but join the war team later. As a result, the passing Medissa hurriedly came over to persuade.
Only red haired girl who came with this Silver Elf Little Princess has nothing to do with him. He just looked at these men and women from a distance and just felt bored.
Several people's disputes are reaching the most critical moment at this moment.
Jutta just finished listening to Bolu's ridicule and sarcasm. -- is Royalist Faction, Master Artisan Bolu is time-tested, and of course, oral skill is also quite remarkable. It is the essence of sarcasm --, so female mercenary commander was so angry that it wanted to refute.
But when she was about to speak, her face changed and she stopped.
"Lord Thane."
Everyone else turned back, "Lord Thane!"
Brando looked at these people without any hesitation, and hummed from their noses: "Very lively Ah?"
Everyone bowed their heads. Only Bolu, who was not in this system, looked indifferent.
But the old man thought for a moment, but still bowed his head respectfully and said, "Lord Thane, according to you, we should have common goals and enemies at the moment, naturally the old man didn't come to make trouble for you; but as we all know, war is Compare the consumption of financial resources, it seems that your situation is not optimistic Ah–– "
Brando After listening to did not say a word, of course he understands this; Wealth left by Grudin looks huge, but that is just for an ordinary person, which is actually scattered in the building of the entire territory, but it does not seem so useful. .
For example, building a city wall is a daily consumption of --
In fact, in order to give craftsmen and workers the confidence to work for him, Amandina had to pay double the price. This sounds strange, because in fact, in this era, a real Thane can completely use the labor of the people in his territory.
However, Brando is very aware of the potential undercurrent in the territory. Before the war with Count of Radnor, I am afraid that the residents of each will doubt how long the Lord Thane, whose name is unscrupulous, can stay here.
In order to appease the public, he had to use this emergency method to get through the difficult initial period; of course, Kalun and Fern also suggested that he use forced recruitment to grab labor, but this proposal incurred at Jutta and Amandina Unanimous opposition.
Not to mention that Romaine, acting as the 'Minister of Finance', does not agree with this plan, but she is not in morality but simple economic considerations. In the long run, the matter of self-destructive reputation is not good for the territory, especially Territorial business development.
After all, Brando doesn't want to downgrade itself to something like Grudin.
But the problem can't be just a problem, it must be solved.
