Power and Empire Chapter 27: Fatty’s plan to make a fortune (2)

Du Yu looked at Lidastorv with nostalgia, leading two rebel knights and silver emblem knights disappearing into the corner of the castle corridor,

　　 That pair of waving handkerchiefs swaying from side to side is like a lady in an opera saying goodbye to her lover, and even the satellite TV standing guard in the corridor next to it despises her to turn her head away, unwilling to see the ugly image of her lord.

　　"Haha! It’s a horse without night, grass, no fat, no money, no wealth, so easily I earned 240,000 gold coins from the vice president of Hertha, if this Lidastorv knew these artifacts Mass production and sales are going to happen soon, I don’t know if I will hit the wall regretfully for my impulse tonight!"

　　 Du Yu didn’t care about the strange eyes of these guards. Instead, he used his fat fingers to flexibly collect five withdrawal gold tickets with a red mark of Hertha inverted triangle and a denomination of 5,000 gold coins into him. Pocket,

　　 This is the ransom of 60,000 gold coins from the Silver Emblem Knight Statu Korn from Lidastorf,

　　The four corners are drawn with precious gold threads, and the withdrawal ticket is painted with a special mixed potion, which can only be seen in some wealthy chambers of commerce in the kingdom.

　　As long as you take this special withdrawal ticket to any branch of Hertha, you can request Hertha to unconditionally pay the above payment.

　　 "Wealth is the last word, we can't do anything without money!"

　　 As the head of the Falcon family, Du Yu is now deeply touched by this sentence. Before, he always thought that his territory was good, even if he was not rich but not poor, he was ranked in the forefront of the second-rate family in the kingdom anyway.

　　 But these few contacts with the vice chairman Getalidastorv, Du Yu only knows how big the gap between the second-rate family and the first-rate family is

　　 is just the vice-chairman of a Hertha smuggling organization raised by the Stian Cusa family of the great northern tycoons, who can easily come up with 60,000 gold coins that he can’t imagine,

　　 In the eyes of these top families, it is estimated that the status of the Falcon family is not much better than that of a poor country boy in the South. The fat man who was wondering how to make a fortune happened to see the dodging figure of the old housekeeper appearing outside the door of the hall, and he hurriedly greeted him.

　　"You just came here. This is a gold ticket of 60,000 gold coins. You ask the tax official Stanad to bring more soldiers and a few carriages to set up the money from the northern city of Hertha in the city of Tatajiku. The branch was shipped back, and I was so annoyed by him these few days! For the 300 gold coins for this celebration banquet, this guy almost didn't draw a knife to fight with me!" "

　　The old butler was very surprised by the mysterious envoys just now, and now he is standing outside the hall with weird faces watching Du Yu and Lidastorv talk secretly at the side of the round table.

　　 Although I don’t know what the young master is talking about with this mysterious envoy, but by seeing two people pointing at the "artifact" in the distance, I can guess some of them. I guess this time the family's artifact will be " Prodigal fat man!" It was sold.

　　 Of course, the contemptuous term "prodigal fat man" did not come from the loyal old butler, but from the recently troubled family tax collector Starnard.

　　The old butler knows that the Falcon family has long been financially distressed due to internal fighting and side branches. Especially in the recent battles to unify the family, the huge army and various expenses have allowed the family to accumulate a year’s treasury. Almost exhausted,

　　 The tax collector Starnard in charge of finances and taxes has been complaining in the past two months, and his tight eyebrows have not been stretched. The eyes of anyone who comes to withdraw gold coins are like seeing an enemy who hates him. ,

　　 I can’t wait to buckle a piece of meat with my eyes on everyone, and write the word saving on every gold coin. Secretly cursed his lord as "the fat prodigal! The most generous poor lord in the kingdom!"

　　The old butler knows that this fat and cunning young master has the idea of ​​playing twelve artifacts in a day or two. Although he has been opposed to the young master selling artifacts in exchange for military expenses, he is facing the current situation. The family’s financial difficulties, this may be the best way to solve the problem now.

　　 But the 60,000 gold coins in the mouth of the young master shocked the self-confessed and knowledgeable old housekeeper. The old housekeeper who knows the financial situation of the family knows ~ IndoMTL.com~ There can be 3,000 gold coins in the settlement of the previous year. The surplus is an amazing thing,

　　 These 60,000 gold coins! It's worth the total of the entire Falcon family's two-year tax revenue, or without any expenditures,

　　 During the 21-year term of the former Marquis, there was no concept of tens of thousands of gold coins in the vault. Most of the taxes became the salary of the Knights, and only a small part became the compensation of the fallen soldiers. Gold

　　In the worst year, there was only a surplus of 320 gold coins. That year, the old Marquis had to sell some of his belongings to get through the trouble.

　　 So even the veteran butler, who is self-sufficient and knowledgeable, has served the Falcon family for a lifetime is the first time he has come into contact with such a large number of gold coins

　　 Seeing the old butler’s astonished mouth that can swallow a fist, Du Yu thought of jokingly

　　 "This is only 60,000 gold coins. If the old butler knew that he had just made a big deal of 240,000 gold coins, he wouldn't faint!"

　　 Seeing the proud look on my young master’s face, I have long felt embarrassed about this old housekeeper who loves money and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Du Yu. The red lion head postmark is in the middle of the envelope. So eye-catching!

　　 This is a letter of military order signed by Du Yu’s grandfather and the current Kingdom Marshal Duke Gist. This special red wax is for the exclusive use of the Ministry of Military Affairs. It means that the military is like fire and cannot be delayed.

　　 If it is a letter from the Ministry of the Interior, it is a blue postmark, indicating that the king’s mercy is as broad as the sea, and the Ministry of Finance is a yellow-orange-orange golden postmark, just like an inverted gold coin.

　　"Master, this is the order that the Ministry of Military Affairs has just received to cancel the "encirclement hunting" this fall. It is said that the Kujites in the north have invaded the northern border on a large scale. This year I am afraid it will be an eventful year!"
