His gaze searched slightly, and fell on the old man Huo, "Old man Huo, as the first family in the imperial capital, how much do you think it is appropriate for your fire clan to support me?"
"This ......"
Old Man Huo subconsciously glanced at Yun Qin, and then said: "Although the Fire Clan has been in the imperial capital for more than 100,000 years, it is not easy to get a share of many families to raise a huge family......
These words made Tuoba Kang on the high platform look extremely uneasy, does this mean to shirk?
He was about to cast a spell to control him, and the old man of fire immediately said: "But there is about to be a war in the empire, as the people of the empire, how can my fire clan ignore it?"
As he spoke, he paused and said, "That's it, Emgrand Restaurant, as the leading industry in our imperial capital, donated 100 million black crystal coins, and my Huo clan donated 200 million black crystal coins and 100 million military supplies." ”
200 million black crystal coins plus 100 million materials is already a huge amount of money, although it is not as high as expected, but Tuoba Kang is still satisfied.
Other heads of large and small families who had been forced to take pills by Tuoba Kang also came up with a figure that Tuoba Kang was satisfied with.
Tuoba Kang nodded, and seeing that some of the people led by Zhang Yunqi did not make a sound, he searched for the figure of Zhang Yunqi, the patriarch of the Zhang clan of the second family, in the crowd, and asked lightly: "Zhang Aiqing, how much money can you donate to show your support for the imperial army?"
Yun Qin looked at him along Tuoba Kang's gaze, curious in his heart about how he would react-
Is it to give a figure that satisfies Tuoba Kang, or is there some other reason to refuse his impudent request?
"Ahem. ”
Zhang Yunqi cleared his throat and said loudly: "It is said that the empire sent troops to the north, and my Zhang clan, as the subjects of the empire, should make a contribution, but Your Majesty, Zhang is very curious, more than a hundred years ago, you used the matter of the second young dragon monarch to leave the dark element, and teamed up with most of the world in the imperial capital to expel the real wealthy family of the imperial capital from the imperial capital and force it to the uninhabited northland. On what basis did you send troops to them this time?"
"That's right, Your Majesty. ”
Lu Wanli, the patriarch of the Lu clan, who ranked third, also said: "Since ancient times, no matter what you do, you have paid attention to the fame of the teacher, let alone such a major event as starting a war?
"Since the Long clan moved out of the imperial capital, they have always followed the rules and regulations, and have not done anything unfavorable to the imperial capital, sending troops to them for no reason, not to mention the loss of money and labor, and the suffering is still those people who have no ability to protect themselves!"
"If we are asked to donate money today, will Ming'er have to go to war with us people? I even suspect that the theft of the treasury is simply a cover for His Majesty to ask us for money, and if we set a precedent today, I am afraid that it will be endless!
“……”
Immediately afterwards, some people who did not want to fight also expressed their opinions.
Tuoba Kang's eyes were filled with gloom, and he thought that Zhang Yunqi and his ilk would refuse to donate money to him, but he didn't expect them to come up with so many reasons......
