The body shape of the phantom beasts is as small as a palm and as large as a mountain; The short ones are like winter melons, and the tall ones are taller than the floors; Low to Chaos Level 1, High to Wisdom Level 4; Some are black, some are white, some are gray, some are blue, and some are transparent.

None of the people had ever seen so many phantom beasts, and they couldn't help but scream in surprise.

Countless phantom beasts roamed the forest, what this meant, Rick, a fan of wealth, didn't have to think about to know, it was gold coins, mountains and piles of gold coins, so many that he couldn't use them all.

Before Rick had even counted half of the number, his head was hot, and he fell to the ground and screamed, "Oh my God! My Coins! ”

Ao Ling'er said: "Brother Rick, are you worried about military expenses again, and you are worried to the ground?" ”

The matter of military spending, the lustful and money-obsessed man has forgotten about it, and when he mentioned it to Ao Ling'er, he immediately remembered it, and screamed, "Oh my God! I earned my gold coins for nothing, and I cheapened those pigs for nothing, and they only knew that they ate me and drank me, but they didn't earn me gold coins, they were really pigs! ”

The military expenditure of 100,000 troops is a lot of money even in peacetime, not to mention that now in the war period, this cost is even greater, the queen has not said the deadline, if she has not let go, let Rick endlessly raise 100,000 troops, how much is this money, Rick can't calculate it, only know that it is very big, even ten gold mountains will be eaten up, he can still die of pain!

Rick screamed for the first time because he was excited by the sudden thought that he had countless riches in the sky, and the second time he screamed because he thought that his gold coins were nothing more than a passing cloud of smoke and that he had worked so hard for himself. Painstakingly obtained gold coins. It's just to make a wedding dress for the queen. The flesh hurts terribly.

Where did Ao Ling'er know this, she always misinterpreted Rick's mood, and said with a flickering crescent eye: "Brother Rick, are you happy?" You know, this is an honor that no one else has! Private money, to raise the army for the country, you are the first person, you are so happy that you cry, understandable! ”

Rick clutched his ears in frustration. "What do you know, you stinky brat? Shut your mouth for me! ”

"People are fragrant, they don't smell! Don't believe it, you smell it! Ao Ling'er hugged the little lazy worm and came up, and said, "Is it fragrant?" ”

A girl's body fragrance rushed into his nose, although there was still a bit of green apple smell, it was also another style, Rick was in a good mood, and said, "Fragrant, fragrant." It's definitely more fragrant here. Pretending to be fragrant on Ao Ling'er's face, he took the opportunity to kiss Ao Ling'er and was ashamed. He gave Rick a big roll of the eyes and ran away with the little lazy worm in his arms.

The four girls gave Rick a white look, which means that you are really! Even the green apples like Ling'er are not spared.

Rick shrugged, touched his nose, and said, "There are so many phantom beasts, what should we do?" Let's go out and sell it, anyway, I'm short of money now, so it's better to sell it for a sky-high price. "The true colors of the money fan came out again, and he counted the accounts with his fingers.

Chrissy, Xu Zhenzhen and Qinglu said: "Childe, you have an idea!" ”

Yulu echoed, "Childe, your ideas are always good. ”

Rick leaned up and said, "Baby, then we'll ...... now."

Yulu exclaimed, "Childe, here?" Yes! No, no. Fei fled behind Chrissy and hid.

Chrissy said, "Childe, look at you scared Sister Yulu." "A white-eyed past, meaning it's really a big pervert.

Ao Ling'er blinked her crescent moon eyes and said, "Brother Rick, even if you want to sell so many phantom beasts, it will take a rich man to afford it!" Where do you go to find such a rich man? ”

This is a big problem, Rick was stupid all of a sudden, thought about it and said, "Then I'll sell it to His Majesty." No, I can't let her know about this, if she does, and then ask me to raise 200,000 or 500,000 troops, I won't lose a lot? Not only can't I let her know about this, but I have to pretend to be poor in front of her, well, that's it. Oh my God! Where do I sell it? Oh, by the way, go to the 'Sam Bao Zhai', they have the money, they must be able to buy it. ”

Rick remembered the last time he sold snake meat, and suddenly, Jona's graceful figure appeared in his mind, and said, "If only Joanna were here, you can have a good bet with her, and you can sell it." ”

"Who is Jona? She must be a good friend of a big pervert! Ao Ling'er explained.

"Go, I'm thinking about business, you little girl doesn't understand, don't come to interrupt." Rick's face hung up.

"People are not small, why are they still little girls." Ao Ling'er straightened her chest, and her crescent eyes flickered, giving Rick countless big eyes.

Xu Zhenzhen said: "Childe, you can sell it to the army." I mean it's not the Blue Moon Empire's army, as long as it's willing to pay for it, it can be sold to any country. ”

Rick's figure flashed, and he quickly picked up Xu Zhenzhen like a fluttering wind, hugged Xu Zhenzhen in his arms, tasted the warm and slippery cherry lips first, and said: "Bao Zedag, this is a good idea, let Childe hurt you well." If the four northern countries pay for it, I will sell it to them at a higher price. When the time comes, I will bring old Hailuo and give him a sum of gold coins, and ask him to prepare me with a dose of chronic Du medicine, feed it to the phantom beasts, and then sell it to the four northern countries. You say, "Is that a good idea?" ”

Will he give old Helo gold coins? It must be blackmail, asking old Hai Luo to volunteer.

Chrissy, Xu Zhenzhen and Qinglu clearly wrote on their faces: You are really despicable.

Gyokuro's kindness is much better: it's too bad, isn't it? Honesty in doing business, you are too dishonest.

Shui Zhuxiu blinked a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, looking at this fast-changing little hairy child with unbelievable eyes. Akith smiled bitterly and shook his head, looking unladylike when he met the master.

The corners of Ao Ling'er's mouth were grinning, and she didn't even want to speak, which showed the anger in her heart.

The Eighteen Nymphs looked at each other in horror, pretending not to hear, and looked away, looking seriously at the scenery.

Only Lu Guangtou praised with a smile: "Boss, you are so despicable, I like it." Fooling around with such a promising boss will definitely not suffer.

Lu Guangtou finally said a sentence that was listening, and Rick responded: "Lu Guangtou, you can finally speak human words, and I will add half a gold coin to you every month." ”

"Half a gold coin, I earned it again, a sentence is worth half a gold coin. Thank you, Boss, Despicable Boss! As soon as Lu Guangtou was happy, he didn't speak a little much.

Rick held his head up triumphantly and said, "You're all wondering how I'm so mean, aren't I?" You just nod your head, honestly. You can't blame me for this, do you think that the four northern countries and our Blue Moon Empire are feuding, not to mention. Let's just say, I took Xiangcheng from them this time, and then took Cherokap from Pedoni, will they be willing? Definitely not, it's just that their current energy is hanging in Silk City, and they can't spare their hands to deal with me. Otherwise, Xiangcheng would have been fighting a long time ago, would we still have time to venture here? It's a question that all fools know the answer to. ”

"If I sell the phantom beast to them, they will get the phantom beast, and their strength will increase greatly, and they won't come to fight me? Xiangcheng must be the first to bear the brunt. If they want to be unfavorable to me, I have no choice but to disadvantage them, give some poison to the phantom beast, and ask them to spend money, but they can buy a phantom beast that cannot be used. Isn't it wonderful? ”

This time, instead of shaking their heads, everyone nodded, with a look of approval in their eyes.

Chrissy said: "Childe, I'm so happy, Childe is mature, yes!" ”

Ignoring the image of a lady, she made a move by the Ricklaw Army. Xu Zhenzhen, Qinglu, Yulu and Shui Zhuxiu, as well as Ao Ling'er and Akis, also came to a classic action.

Lu Guangtou touched his bald head and said, "Boss, you are so capable!" Such a despicable thing actually makes so much sense to you. ”

This caused a burst of laughter, and the atmosphere suddenly became much more lively.

Rick was still not satisfied, put his hands behind his back, and proudly paced up the famous "Rick Luo Circle Steps" that he improvised and circulated in later generations, and said step by step: "For me, I would rather pay than give people." In the name of my lord, I can collect taxes from my people, who are happy to pay them in order to defend their homeland. If I give an order in the name of the lord to send them out and go to battle, except for a few who like war, the vast majority of the people are unwilling, and I will take the lesser of the two. ”

"It was someone who saw this and asked me to pay for the military myself. What she meant couldn't be clearer, that is, she wanted me to pay out of my pocket to raise an army for her and reduce the pressure on the treasury, what a good calculation, what a trick! Stabilizing the northern frontier is very important to her, and it is even more important to me, this is my territory, my private property, and I must do whatever it takes to keep my property. We're calculating each other, and we can say we're working together, and it's a good choice for her and me. ”

The queen of Chad decreed, Rick was so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall, thought about it slowly, felt that there was a problem, and spent several days of hard work, and finally understood the queen's intentions, and accepted this reality. However, this amount of money is indeed not a small amount, and although Rick has figured it out, he does not know where to get that much money. It is a choice to raise taxes on the people in the territory, but it is a stupid choice, that is, to squeeze the oil out of the people, and it is impossible to feed an army of 100,000 with a territory of 500 miles. If you can't think of a way, you just don't think about it, this is Rick's character, and if you can't think of a way to raise military expenses, you won't think about it.

Although Rick guessed the queen's intentions, he didn't understand all the queen's intentions, and there was another meaning, at this time, Rick didn't know the art of political scheming, and he couldn't think of it at all. Still, Rick's ability to figure this out shows that he's matured a lot and ready for him to go on the stage of history. (To be continued......)
