When he reached the turntable, Arthas noticed that Kalia was standing by the turntable, her face gloomy, as if she was sulking. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What's wrong, Kalia?" Arthas asked curiously.
"Humph!" Karia snorted coldly, not answering.
"That...... Arthas, did you bring any money?" Winlessa asked Arthas, after glancing at Kalia's face, cautiously.
"Money?" Arthas touched his clothes—not even a pocket.
"Nope. Arthas replied with a spread of his hands.
"That's the end of it...... Wen Lesa said with a disappointed look on her face, "this thing called the 'merry-go-round' can't be played without money." ”
"I'm so......" Kalia muttered a tantrum, "it's all your fault, Arthas, why didn't you bring the money!"
"How can I be blamed for this...... You didn't bring it either!" Arthas didn't usually have the habit of carrying money, and after being the Lich King for so many years, he didn't know how to write the word "spend money".
"I ......" Kalia was speechless.
"You leave the palace often, and that's the way it should be!" said Kalia clamoringly.
"I usually leave the palace and don't buy anything on the street. Arthas said with a shrug.
"And where did you get all those things you gave me? you stole them?" said Kalia.
Every time Arthas sneaked out of the palace and returned, Kalia would catch her brother and reprimand him.
However, Arthas always brought back some interesting gadgets for Kalia, such as puppets, small animals woven from grass stems, etc.
Each item was hidden in her little box, and little by little, she saved up, but she learned today that none of them had been bought by Arthas.
"Don't talk nonsense, how could I steal!" Arthas thought his sister was so babbling, "it was given to me by merchants who knew me." ”
"That's right, you go and tell the guy to let us ride this merry-go-round!" said Kalia, with a wave of her finger, pointing to the fat vendor standing at the merry-go-round's toll.
"Then what's going on...... Arthas shook his head and said, "If someone gives me something, I can't refuse, so what's the reason for asking someone to send it? ”
Arthas wasn't going to do such an inauthentic thing, it would make him feel like he was bullying.
"I ...... They don't know me!" said Kalia, feeling a little angry.
However, this is also something that cannot be helped, she spends most of her time in the royal domain, and the commoners rarely get to see her.
"Then I'm not going to ...... I promised Gianna that I wanted to play all the fun things here, and I couldn't go door to door and say that I was His Royal Highness the Prince, and I wanted to play their stuff for free, right?"
Alsace felt that he had to solve the problem of money.
"Alsace......" Gianna quietly pulled the corner of Alsace's clothes.
"What's wrong, Gianna?" Arthas asked, turning his head.
"I don't have any money...... "Gianna said pitifully, "then let's not play, shall we?"
Gianna was a sensible child, and she didn't want to cause trouble for Artace because of herself.
"You see that Gianna is a princess, and she is much more sensible than you!" Arthas said, pointing at Gianna and talking to Kalia.
"You!" said Kalia was so angry that she wanted to beat Arthas - this bastard brother, don't think he's an adult if he has a fiancée!
"You ...... Who's got the money?" Arthas asked, ignoring Kalia, who was being held by Taresa and Winresa, and turned to the crowd.
"I didn't ......," said Althee, shaking her head, "there is no such thing in the rebel camp, and the coins that everyone has with them have been thrown away on the way to escape. ”
"Hmph. The Red Dragon Queen raised her chin and crossed her arms - you don't have to ask Arthas to know that this fellow is a poor bastard, who only knows how to eat and drink his own.
"I ...... I only have a few copper coins......" Taresa whispered.
The little maid had no money, and she didn't have any tasks to do as Kalia's personal maid in the palace, and her first month's salary had not yet been paid.
"Well, Xiaoshuang, you definitely don't have any money. Arthas said with a glance at Frost Sorrow.
"Frost is the queen of Lordaeron! these things are mine!" Frost Sorrow felt underestimated by her master.
"Okay...... You still don't have any money. Arthas ignored Frost Sorrow, then looked at Aurelia.
This High Ranger leader should be the most likely person to bring money, right?
"I didn't bring any money either. Aurelia said apologetically.
This time I came to Lordaeron for a banquet, and the Windranger sisters didn't think about bringing any purses.
"I've got money......" Varian whispered.
"Then you didn't say it sooner!" Kalia looked angrily at the prince of Stormwind, who she was now looking at more and more unpleasantly.
"But...... This money cannot be spent indiscriminately. Varian looked into Kalia's eyes and subconsciously covered his waist.
"These coins are to be used for the rebuilding of Stormwind. To prove that he is not the one who picks the door, Varian explained.
Although he didn't know where Varian's money came from, and Arthas didn't know why Anduin Lothar didn't confiscate Varian's private money, he decided to requisition it in advance.
"When I get back, I'll give it back to you. Arthas said to Varian, "Now let's take it out and use it first." ”
"Really?" Varian was good friends with Arthas, but it seemed that he valued his pockets more seriously.
Promising a future, you'll be a good king - Arthas gave Varian a thumbs up in his heart.
"Wow! you have so much money!" Arthas opened Varian's purse, and was startled.
Yellow gold coins were piled up in small money bags, at least a few dozen, and the patterns on them were varied, and it seemed that there were gold coins from various countries.
"These were given to me by Teacher Lothar. "He said he would give me time to go to the bazaar and recruit some great artisans." Teacher Lothar says we can't all count on the help of His Majesty King Terenus. ”
So that's it...... It dawned on Arthas.
Stormwind needs to be rebuilt with manpower, and it's not just his father's Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alfonso, who is worried about it, but it seems that Anduin Lothar has also considered this.
There should be quite a few Artisans among the Stormstorm Refugees and the Resistance, but there may not be enough of them, and recruiting Artisans in Lordaeron will naturally require money.
Anduin Lothar may have meant that the kingdom of Lordaeron could not bear all of the costs, but leave it to Ureon...... Is it to train him, what if this guy is deceived?
