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!" Kalia snorted coldly and did not answer.
"That...... Alsace, did you bring any money? Winresa glanced at Kalia's face, then asked Arthas 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 don't you bring the money!" ”
"How can I be blamed for this...... You didn't bring it either! "Arthas doesn't usually have the habit of carrying money, and after being the Lich King for so many years, he doesn't know how to write the word "spend money".
"I ......" Kalia was speechless.
"You leave the palace a lot, this kind of thing is supposed to remember!" Kalia said noisily.
"I usually leave the palace and don't buy anything on the street." Arthas said with a shrug.
"And where did all the things you give me come from? Did you steal it? Kalia exclaimed.
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.
Every thing Kalia would hide in her little box, and little by little she would save it up; But she learned today that none of these things had been bought by Alsace.
"Don't talk nonsense, how could I go and steal!" Arthas felt that his sister was so fond of gibberish, "It was given to me by merchants who knew me." ”
"That's right, you go tell that guy and let him allow us to ride this merry-go-round!" Kalia said with a wave of her finger as she pointed to the fat vendor standing at the merry-go-round's toll.
"Then how can it be done...... Alsace shook his head and said, "If someone sends me something, I will ask for it if I can't refuse, so what's the reason for taking the initiative to ask someone to send it?" Besides, Kalia, you're not also a princess, why don't you say it yourself. ”
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! Kalia said with some exasperation.
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 things 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, "and 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.
"Look at Jianna, they are all princesses, much more sensible than you!" Arthas pointed to Gianna and said to Kalia.
"You!" Kalia was so angry that she wanted to beat up Arthas - this bastard brother, don't think he's an adult if he has a fiancée!
"You ...... Who brought the money? Arthas ignored Kalia, who was being held in by Taresa and Winresa, and turned to the crowd to ask.
"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 guy 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 didn't have much money in the first place, and she didn't have any tasks to do as Kalia's personal maid in the palace; And her first month's salary has 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 earlier!" 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 is good friends with Arthas, but it seems that he values his own 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; There are various patterns on it, and it seems that there are gold coins from various countries.
"These were given to me by Teacher Lothar." Varian replied honestly, "He said it 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 also be quite a few artisans among the Storm Refugees and the Rebels, though they may not be enough; And if you want to recruit artisans in Lordaeron, you will naturally need money.
Anduin Lothar may have meant that the kingdom of Lordaeron could not bear all of the costs; But leave such a thing to Wryon...... Is it to train him? What if this guy is scammed?
