Heart of Empire Chapter 118: Call for help

Dane and his knights walked into the government affairs hall of Ghost Knife Port amidst the shouting and tsunami of "Long live the lord". ??

Sitting in the government affairs hall that was completely different from the humble lobby at the beginning, Dane spent an hour listening to Tommy's brief introduction to the development of Ghost Knife Port during this period of time. Report, but also listened to the report of Hull's Chamber of Commerce and Exhibition.

Dane is still very satisfied with the work of these two people.

The development of Ghost Knife Port is even somewhat beyond Dane's expectations. The same situation happened to the Comilla Chamber of Commerce.

The most concentrated manifestation is that the tax revenue, output of the port, and the profits of the chamber of commerce have increased significantly.

Only a year ago, the entire island of Comilla, counting Orenadu, Ghost Knife Port, and the Comilla Chamber of Commerce together, brought in a month's income, which was almost the same as that of a Rotten Wolf town. , It is a bit worse than Shawan Port. But now, just one Ghost Knife Port can already compete with Shahaiwan Port—although the current Shahaiwan Port is still under reconstruction.

Except for the Ghost Knife Port, the profits of the Comilla Chamber of Commerce are already very high. After the population surge of Auriana, Faro also mentioned in the estimate given to Dane that he is confident in doubling the production of Auriana within three months in the future.

If all of this can be achieved, Dane's monthly income from Comilla Island will exceed 30,000 gold coins!

Opening the empire panel of the system, Dane saw the latest data.

"Empire Index: 127"

"Empire monthly income: 724oo"

"Empire monthly expenditure: 6oooo"

"Net Income: 124oo"

The empire index has increased six times compared to the beginning of last year. The main reason is that he has now unified the entire territory of Schindler in name, and the military strength in his hand has exceeded 20,000. Among them, there are 10,000 Beast Blood Castle Legion, and his own main army has 10,000 people. The rest is just waiting for the newly trained soldiers to fill the organization in the training bases of Orienado and White Wolf Castle. up.

In terms of income, it also tripled compared to last year. Moreover, this figure has room for further improvement. For example, after the reconstruction of Shahai Bay Port is completed, the monthly income will increase a lot; Ghost Knife Port, Comilla Chamber of Commerce, and Orinado are still under development.

At the same time, it cannot be forgotten that now, at least in name, the entire territory of Schindler must provide taxes to Dane.

This is the project with the greatest potential for improvement!

Now, according to Chapple's estimate, the tax income he can reap from other areas of Schindler next month is only 20,000 gold coins, which is not as good as a sandy bay port. This is due to war factors, construction and production have not yet resumed, and the tax money provided is relatively small. Another point is that, except for the southern border, although other places in Schindler are his territory in name, they are actually his territory. He can't control it completely, and there is no way to receive all the taxes.

Not counting Cinderella and Lost City, which have become the territory of demons, as long as Dane can subdue the unruly people in Beast Blood Castle and Lost City, as well as the small warlords entrenched in various places, the tax The number will immediately increase three to five times! And once the entire territory of Schindler returns to its peak state, Dane will be able to earn 200,000 to 300,000 gold coins a month just from the taxation of the territory!

This will be a very large number. Thinking about the prospect, Dane feels very excited. Only then can he truly be called the King of Schindler, unlike now, even the money for rebuilding the two cities is only three to four hundred thousand gold coins, and it needs to be paid to Sequoia and Shire. Such a chamber of commerce will borrow.

Borrowing money is always a bad thing. If, based on the current situation, even if Dane does not continue to invest in gold coins to expand the territory and expand the army, it will take several years for him to pay off the balance of the money he owes each month.

However, Dane will not be so honest.

He intends to wait until the reconstruction of the Southern Territory is almost done, and then he will take action. He has already planned the timeline. Before the middle of the year, he will get rid of the warlords first, and then subdue the Beast Blood Fort and Ice Cave City, so that those restless guys will be obedient, and try to free up their hands by the middle of this year. Come, get rid of the demons in Lost City and Cinderella.

Even, he even had an idea in his mind on how to deal with those demons—he still remembered that there was still an abyss base in his system!

It's just that what Dane didn't expect was that before he started his big move, Freya and her group of priests who had been sent to the underground world by him would bring him an unexpected surprise.

…

"Lord Dane, please go and save Knight Freya!"

Before the pier of Ghost Knife Port, Dane~IndoMTL.com~ who was inspecting the pier was stopped by a young knight who was in a mess and even had blood on his body.

Dyne vaguely remembered who this person was—it seemed to be a member of Freya's priesthood, a tenth-level Templar.

"What happened?" Tommy, who was with Dane, asked beside him. He was a little displeased, he was planning to introduce the extremely prosperous pier to his lord, but in the end, someone got in the way.

The young templar said: "We stayed in the underground world for a week and found a huge dungeon! There are a lot of faceless people!"

Before they left, Dane didn't tell them about the dungeon, only that there were a lot of faceless men. However, in the image of the priests, the remnants of the belief in the old gods, even if the word is used to describe it, there are at most hundreds of them.

But who would have thought that after in-depth investigation, an entire dungeon could be discovered!

Freya and her fellow priests didn't intend to act rashly at first. No matter how arrogant they are, they don't think that sixty people can wipe out an entire dungeon.

It's just that things need to be investigated more clearly.

In the group of priests, there are Templar knights, priests and priests who are proficient in magic arts, and even mages with high level of spellcasting.

The daring Freya decided to enter this dungeon of the Faceless Man and investigate further.

Using the power of magic and magic, they sneaked into the dungeon.

In the beginning, there were no problems. The Faceless Ones' ability to detect the power of spells is relatively low, and they are unable to detect this group of people.

Until, they discovered something incredible. 8
