Cultivating a private armed force undoubtedly requires a huge amount of financial resources, and the supply of weapons and equipment and military salaries alone is a bottomless pit of gold absorption, and if there is no stable and continuous huge source of funds, it is difficult to provide for it for a long time, and maybe a small war is enough to make people completely bankrupt!

Xia Lan has always had no concept of money, but this does not mean that he has no money, on the contrary, the money looted in the course of the task over the years is enough to support him for a lifetime, money is not omnipotent, but no money is absolutely impossible, he still understands this very well, especially after getting used to the daily luxury life, money has become an indispensable thing for him.

It was only when all his money was invested in the armed forces that Auden had secretly built up and then it was consumed in a blink of an eye, which was like a drop in the bucket.

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

When the young people who responded to Pandelia's call with enthusiasm joined the "Princess Guard", it was impossible for them to ignore them as the leaders of the establishment and training of this armed force, most of these people were from poor and poor families, and they were already penniless when they arrived in Queirofi, and if they wanted to gain the loyalty of this armed force, the problem of food and clothing was the first thing to solve in front of them.

It is not difficult to solve the problem of food and clothing, but weapons and equipment and military training are big things!

Because you can't expect a rabble to take on the mighty Viscount Morroon, as long as they can make the best use at the right time, it will be enough to satisfy Charan.

Perhaps cruel, in the end, Xia Lan just used them as cannon fodder on the front line against Viscount Moron, and Viscount Moron must have treated this armed force with the same contempt. Otherwise, how could he have allowed Quirofi to appear as an illegal armed group that specializes in dealing with himself!

He did not choose to destroy this infant armed force. On the one hand, it is concerned about the cooperative relationship with Charan Pandelia. On the one hand, he thinks that this armed force does not pose the slightest threat to him at all, and, with proper indulgence, it will be settled cleanly as soon as this armed force begins to form a large scale, which will surely plunge Charan and Pandelia into deep despair, and such a pleasant thing is definitely the result that Viscount Morroen is very happy to see.

However, Viscount Moron didn't expect that Serala had already gained insight into his conceited thoughts, so Xia Lan and the others simply took advantage of the situation to secretly expand wildly and aggressively with the connivance of Viscount Moron, and as a result, the economic Yan zhòng collapsed!

How to solve the source of funding? Do you really want to let Pandelia put down her body and ask for funding from the powerful and rich? When Xia Lan, who was attending a banquet with Pandelia in the Quirofi Council Chamber, was worried about this issue. Absent-minded, he suddenly saw a familiar person appear in his eyes.

A tall figure, a luxurious mink coat, and a wild and charming face.

Niniro!?

How is she?

Xia Lan's spirit condensed suddenly, and his eyes stared at the woman who was smiling at him with a slight wine glass not far away, and that smile seemed to be mixed with some inexplicable taste, charming? Surprised? Coincidental?

"Is that her? How did she end up here? ”

In his ears, when Pandelia, who had just finished talking with a dignitary, noticed Xia Lan's abnormality and immediately followed his line of sight, the whole person immediately burst out in shock.

"You know her?" Xia Lan's attention turned to Pandelia and frowned strangely.

"Yes...... It all started after we fled separately during the hunt of Lord Baisizer...... "Pandalia began to tell the story of her acquaintance with Niniro.

"Mercenaries of the caravan under the command of Viscount Moron? Hum! I'm afraid her identity won't be so simple. After listening to Pandelia's story, Xia Lan muttered softly.

"She once said she knew your saber, which means you know her? Is this true? Pandelia said with some complications.

"That's right. She and I once worked together in the royal city of the Kingdom of Adria. Xia Lan said calmly.

"Why do you think she's here?" Pandelia asked.

"Mercenaries wander around with mission assignments, and they can appear anywhere." Charland Road.

"But don't you think it's a coincidence?" Pandelia was skeptical.

"Coincidence? There are so many coincidences in the world. It's not unusual to have one more now. Xia Lan said: "She's here." ”

When Pandelia heard this, she didn't care about the doubts in her heart, and her attention and eyes suddenly turned to Niniro, who was walking slowly and gracefully not far away.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Gui'an!"

Niniro approached them and smiled as she performed the standard etiquette of a noble lady's greeting.

"Lady Niniro, Gui'an!" Princess Pandelia returned the salute with a serious smile on her face. "I didn't expect us to meet again."

"Perhaps this shows that I have an indissoluble fate with His Highness Pandelia." Niniro chuckled as she covered her lips.

"Why are you here?" At this time, Xia Lan suddenly spoke coldly and interrupted the politeness of the two of them.

"It's rude to interrupt a conversation between ladies! Little boy! Niniro's eyes glanced up and down Xia Lan's handsome and indifferent cheeks.

"Pandelia, I have something to say to her, you can avoid it for a while." Xia Lan ignored Niniro's verbal teasing, but turned to Pandelia beside her and said directly.

"Huh—what can't you say in front of Her Highness the Princess? Moreover, your attitude towards Her Royal Highness the princess is very rude and bad, if it were me, I would definitely have someone drag you down and behead you! Niniro said with a smile on her face.

"Your Excellency Xia Lan, then I won't bother you to talk to Lady Niniro and leave first." Although Pandelia was in a slightly unhappy mood, she still obeyed Xia Lan's words, and there was no abnormality on her smiling face.

"Try not to disappear from my sight." Xia Lan specially admonished her before leaving.

"Okay."

With that, Pandelia walked towards a circle of powerful people who were talking.

"Tsk, it's really an eye-opener for me, I didn't expect you to be able to train the princess of a country to be so obedient." Looking at the elegant back of Pandelia's departure. Niniro couldn't help but tease.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Xia Lan ignored the other party's gag and said indifferently.

"Alas...... You're still the same. Listening to my sister, this really needs to be changed. Otherwise, no woman will fall in love with you. "Niniro still goes her own way.

"It's not your turn to care about my affairs!" Xia Lan snorted coldly.

"Really? took advantage of others, found a new love, and forgot about my old love! You men are really a bunch of people with a cold nature, ruthless and unrighteous hearts! Niniro wiped the "tears" from the corners of her eyes and pretended to sob.

"Have you had enough?" Xia Lan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a strong murderous aura burst out from her body and surged towards Niniluo.

Feeling the murderous aura on Xia Lan's body, Niniluo instinctively made a defensive posture, and then she returned to her original nature and said, "You scared my sister again!" What a bad guy to love and hate...... Okay, let's get down to business, it's not a coincidence that I'm here this time, it's just that I'm looking for you! ”

"What are you looking for me?" Xia Lan retracted the remaining murderous aura on her body.

"Enoch, you should have dealt with him, right? This time, I have come to sue you on his orders, and he has decided to cooperate with you against Viscount Moron! Niniro looked left and right without leaving a trace, and whispered.

"Are you a person who was "discussed by the ancestors?" Xia Lan said with a twitch of his eyebrows.

"It's not. I'm just repaying someone's kindness and doing something for them. Niniro replied nonchalantly. Otherwise, who wants to get involved in the treacherous waters of Sisnia! ”

"So you know that this muddy water is extremely dangerous." Xia Lan sneered.

"Nonsense! It's good to say that my sister is also the temporary editor of the "Ancestors Public Council" now, how can an arrogant and ignorant little guy like you crash into it without understanding anything! Niniro shook her head and said, "Tell my sister, why are you getting into this muddy water?" Is it for your little princess? ”

"I have my reasons, you don't have to know." Xia Lan said coldly.

"Really? Then don't come to my sister and me when you are in danger! Niniro didn't care at all about Xia Lan's attitude, playfully abusively.

"Tell me, how did Electric decide to work with me?" Xia Lan got back to business.

"He can meet your needs, I know that you have secretly established a so-called "Princess Guard" in Querofi, and now the development of this armed force must be in trouble, right? And we can fund you to train and train this armed force! Niniro said. Of course, we're here to help. ”

"What do I need to do?" Xia Lan thought for a moment and said.

"We'll sue you when the time is right." Niniro said. "Don't worry, we won't deliberately arrange for you to die."

"Looks like you're in a pretty bad place." Charland Road.

"Do you see that?" Niniro smiled. "Yes, since Alonsos came back. Our organization is in great trouble, and many of its members have been secretly liquidated. If this continues, I'm afraid we'll really be forced to evacuate Quirofi. ”

"It's hard to imagine how embarrassed you will be when Alonsos returns!" Charland Road.

"You still underestimate this man too much, and Viscount Moron has a lot of things to hide from you, and it's normal for you to be kept in the dark." Niniro said: "Enoch and Alonthos had a fight not long ago, and as a result, Enoch was a little injured, and he has not recovered until now. ”

"No wonder he was in such a hurry to cooperate with me, and even promised so many tempting conditions." Charland Road.

"No way, Enoch decided to let me contact you early in the morning to discuss cooperation, but unfortunately I have never found a chance to get close to you, maybe you also know that there are too many eyeliners around you." Niniro sighed.

"It seems that you have paid a lot of price for meeting me this time." Charland Road.

"The situation is okay, it's just that I was wronged to be the mistress of a powerful person." Niniro understated.

"No wonder you can blend in here!" Xia Lan looked around the venue.

"What are you looking at? Looking for my man? Niniro suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw Xia Lan's actions.

"No, I'm wondering why you didn't get involved when Pandelia met with the civilians, thinking that those civilians should be the ones Viscount Moron had already arranged for the investigation." Charland Road.

"You guessed it right, I found that your little guy is getting smarter and sharper, which really makes my sister like you even more." Niniro said: "By the way, who is the man who needs to sue me?" ”

"No, I don't." Xia Lan stopped and watched.

"Don't you have a little jealousy of your sister being someone else's mistress in your heart?" Niniro pretended to be sad.

"Nope!" Xia Lan said calmly.

"Sure enough, I have a new love and forget the old love!" Niniro sighed as she stroked her charming cheek. "Those innocent and lovely little girls are as mature and seductive as their sisters—"

"Because I know no man can take advantage of you!" Xia Lan said indifferently.

"Haha-it seems that you still know your sister very well." Niniro laughed and said, "Do you want to know what happened to that powerful man after he took care of me?" ”

"Not interested." Xia Lan began to look around again.

"I sue you, that powerful man is strict and serious in his daily life, but in fact he is a masochist behind his back, every night he will kneel on the ground and beg his sister to whip him, and now I can't help but laugh when I think about that scene." Niniro said excitedly. "You're looking for your little princess, aren't you? There she is! Also, the middle-aged man I'm talking to is what I call a masochist! ”

Following Niniro's guidance, Xia Lan immediately spotted the two people talking at the banquet table not far away.

As Niniro said, the middle-aged magnate who was talking to Pandelia was full of majesty, and the straight dress he was wearing was not wrinkled in the slightest, and on the surface it seemed that the other party was a standard magnate who strictly adhered to aristocratic etiquette.

"Have you made any big moves lately? I'm sure you won't sit idly by under the pressure of Viscount Moronne! Xia Lan asked suddenly.

"You want to know?" A mysterious smile tugged at the corners of Niniro's mouth.

"Yes." Xia Lan nodded.

"My sister has been lonely for a long time recently." Niniro said inexplicably at this time.

"The dagger on your lap can solve the puzzle of loneliness for you." Xia Lan glanced at her and said.

"And yet I miss your dagger now." Niniro gradually leaned towards Xia Lan and said.

"At the other end of the promenade is a garden." Xia Lan said for no reason.

"There's a garden there." Niniro said with a look of charm.

After the words fell, the two walked together in the direction of the corridor with a very tacit understanding. (To be continued......)
