An hour later, Dawn returned, and the faithful old butler told Danica everything he had learned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Miss Danica, I have inquired, what Master Path said is true, there are a total of one hundred and seven people and twenty-six families who plan to leave the city of Ridimpa. As he spoke, Dwayne pulled a crumpled piece of paper out of his pocket.

"Every family was visited, and the paper listed the members of the twenty-six families. ”

Danica put down the pen in her hand, and before Dawn came in, she was making a total of all the reports she had recently obtained, and this total listed the total of all the reports, such as the total loss of the house, the total cost of rebuilding, the total labor cost used to rebuild, and so on.

Danica wanted to make something like this, and then use it to compare it with another source to see how the mountain town would grow in the future and how much it would earn.

Now, what Dawn brought with her disrupted her original plans.

As for the labor costs required to rebuild the mountain town, it is cheaper for those who use the mountain town than for those who use the mountain town than for those who hire people from neighboring towns.

Danica's face turned cold, and she jerked herself to her feet, walked over to Dawn, eagerly took the piece of paper, and looked at each name on it earnestly.

"There are so many?!"

"Dwayne, at least half of the names on this list are young adults, they were originally hired by me, and now they are actually planning to leave? The work of rebuilding the mountain city is already in front of us, and suddenly there are so many fewer people, do I want to use more money in the neighboring town? You know the total expenditure, including all the current finances of this mountain town, you take this general report and this list that I just made, go and talk to them, they can't ignore the old feelings at all, they are anti-covenant!"

As she spoke, Danica clenched her fists hard, with an angry expression on her face, and said hatefully: "If you really let them leave like this, so many days of reports will be in vain!"

"Miss Danica, I'll do it right away, before I leave here, there is one more thing, those gold coins ......" Dawn's voice became lower when he mentioned the gold coins, those gold coins have not yet reached the time to be exposed, these days are busy with the aftermath, the two people who know those gold coins, that is, Danica and Dawn, have not had free time to count the dozen boxes of gold coins.

Hearing Dawn mention the gold coins, Danica also knew that this work had to be carried out immediately, and it could not be delayed any longer.

"I see, when you go out, call Vance by the way, and hide it from Lance first, I'm afraid that he will tell the story of the gold coins if he accidentally drinks too much when he goes to the tavern. ”

"Miss Danica! I'll do it right away!"

The footsteps faded away, and Danica turned around, rubbing her forehead lightly.

She walked over, there was still half a cup of strong tea left in the cup on the table, reached out and picked it up, and drank the bitter thing in one gulp, and in an instant, her dizzy head became much clearer.

Danica returned to where she had sit, picked up the pen again, and swiped it across the paper.

She hoped that things would go well, that Dawn would be able to convince those who were bent on leaving, that it would be best to convince everyone, and that if they could not be completely convinced, at least a third of them should be left, otherwise the rebuilding of the mountain city would be greatly delayed.

"Hmm, my head hurts......"

This time is more busy than ever, even when I sleep, I often have nightmares, plus my mental condition is not good, I am still facing all kinds of things every day, and I think a little too much, and it will sting when I overdo it.

Danica looked up at the ceiling with a missing corner above, and immediately remembered the tragic situation of Ridimpa.

“…… I can't even protect this place. ”

Danica closed her eyes and smiled weakly, feeling extremely sad and sad.

After a while, Danica lost her frustrated tone and said to herself seriously, "I...... I can't give up. ”

She exhaled deeply, then opened her tired eyes.

Even though she doesn't know how far she can go, she must work hard to solve all the problems she is facing now, and not let down the trust of the residents of this mountain town.

Thinking of this, Danica rubbed her forehead and felt the stinging soothe a little.

Picking up the pen again, he glanced at the words he had just written, and began to think about the changes in this reconstruction plan again, when suddenly, the pain returned.

"Ahhh

Danica yelled and tossed her pen aside.

"Sure enough, it doesn't work, it looks like I really need a good rest, I've overused my brain during this time......"

In the past two days, Danica quietly asked Vance without telling Dawn, and the old Vance had only one answer, which was to let her stop what she was doing and have a good rest. Things have developed to this point, how can she stop working as a city lord, and then, old Vance can only advise her not to stay up late.

Danica could only shake her head at Vance's proposal, she told Vance not to say to Dwayne, otherwise Dwayne would be worried about this and that, and would take away his job, now is the most difficult time in the mountain city, Danica feels that she can't let the job be handed over to someone else.

Danica used these reasons to convince Vance that Vance had only one condition, that is, after this difficult time, Danica had to give herself a long vacation, at least a month off.

After all, no matter how strong her body is, there will be a bad day, and Danica is desperate every day, as if she wants to consume her life quickly.

Before the matter of rebuilding the mountain city was completely resolved, Danica could only force herself on, to be honest, she was more tired than before in the past few days, and she was more likely to be weak and tired than before.

Danica knew that she had to use willpower to resist with her current unhealthy body, and strive to get the most work done in the shortest amount of time.

And, one thing after another.

Before waiting for Vance to come, Danica took a break to pass the time.

After a while, old Vance came, Vance's footsteps were so soft, so light that they could barely be heard, and after the other party spoke, Danica realized that the other party had come.

After a short break, Danica stood up and asked Vance.

"There's no one outside, right?"

"No one passed by when I came in. ”

"It's better to have someone guard outside, Vance, wait a minute, when I'm done, you can take this sign outside and hang it up, and don't let anyone in. Danica looked at each other solemnly with a serious expression.

"Miss?" said old Vance, looking at him suspiciously.

"You just do what I say. ”

Danica used a pen to write a line on the sign: No intruders are allowed in an important meeting!

Danica then tossed the sign over and tossed it to Vance.

Vance didn't know anything, he was confused, but he could only do what she said.

When Vance returned, Danica led him into a utility room-like area.

"This is it, Vance, lock the door. ”

The previous temporary city lord's mansion could not be used anymore, Danica's office had to change places, and chose a deserted hut, and the residence was in the tent area, which was not convenient to go back and forth every day, but there was no way, so many boxes of gold coins always had to have a place to put them.

Vance wondered about Danica's caution, and when Dawn found him, Dawn told him that there was something important, and now that he was here, what was so important that he was so cautious.

Next, Vance quickly understood, and the elder Vance saw Danica take out a familiar gadget, which was a space prop that he had seen from Dawn. Immediately after, Danica stroked it a few times, and one after another iron boxes suddenly appeared out of thin air on the empty ground.

Under Vance's gaze, Danica opened the iron boxes one by one, and the moment they opened, the glittering golden light almost blinded the old Vance's eyes.

"It's all gold?!"

Old Vance stared at box after box of golden light, his expression full of shock.

******

In the evening, after the dinner of the city lord's mansion and the group, Danica wanted to go out for a walk for the first time, and she came to the street.

Lance was behind her, and came out with him.

"Danica. Lance called her name.

"What are you doing?" Danica looked back and gave him an angry look.

"Let's go for a walk together. ”

"Together, I don't think you have some kind of intention. ”

Danica stared at Lance as if she wanted to find something out of his face, and she thought it was a little strange in her heart, it seemed to be Lance's first ...... Suggestion, or invitation?

"It's nothing, just talk about what's happened recently. Lance smiled, "Now that most of us live in tent areas, we have to run long distances every day to help, and I feel alienated from you and Daun, and I miss the old City Lord's Mansion a little." ”

“…… That's the only way?"

"yes. ”

"Everyone's been busy lately, how can you have time to think about those things, Lance, you're really relaxed. Danica bowed her head slightly, and at the moment when she lowered her head, I don't know if it was an illusion, Lance saw a trace of envy in her eyes.

"It's not easy, I'm just good at self-regulation. ”

"That's right......" Danica turned her head and pointed ahead, "then let's walk around the mountain castle and take a closer look at the scars of the mountain castle." ”

Lance smiled slightly a few times and spoke: "Danica, have you noticed that every time I talk to you about mountain castles, I talk to you. ”

Lance followed behind her, walking with her.

"You've been like this since the first day I met you. ”

Danica didn't speak, just stared around, and when she met residents on the street, she greeted them one by one.

As they approached the tent area, Lance scratched his face as if he was going to make a decision, but hesitated.

Obviously, he had just mentioned a good beginning, although Danica didn't speak, but he could continue the topic, why did it feel so difficult when he really wanted to talk about it?

"Danica ......"

Danica didn't say anything and didn't answer, much to Lance's frustration.

"Danica. ”

Lance continued to call her name, but Danica didn't seem to hear her.

"Danica!"

Until, Lance really mustered up the courage, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and grabbed the girl's arm.

Danica ...... I ......"

Danica looked up at Lance with an apologetic expression.

"I'm sorry, you're calling me? I was a little distracted just now, I didn't hear it. ”

"Uh...... I ......" It's the first time Lance has seen Danica like this, as if he has lost his usual sharpness, become gentle, and take the initiative to apologize to himself.

"I ...... I...... It's just that...... I'm a little worried, I heard about that...... Danica, you, are you alright? I'm worried about you!" Lance felt his face burn all at once, as if it were burning.

Lance's mind recalls going to the tavern and meeting the tavern people when he was wandering around, and listening to those people talk about themselves, they say that sometimes men have to take the initiative or they will lose a lot of opportunities.
