Chapter 161: Fiscal Crisis

A thousand people were robbed for no reason, and it was absolutely impossible for Matu to give up on this matter, how could he hate Rocky and not say it first, but Baron Wallin definitely couldn't let it go!

So on the night of the end of the war, Baron Wallin was directly arrested, and in Matu's opinion, how much he lost in front of Rocky, Baron Wallin had to pay him back, and if he couldn't pay it back, he would take his life to pay off the debt!

And in the face of the angry Matu, even if Baron Volin has a big backer behind him, it is useless, after all, Matu has no ability, and he is also the lord of a city!

On the other hand, Rocky, who returned to Thunder Eagle City, was naturally refreshed, he won the war and robbed a full thousand people, how could he not be happy?

But as the lord of the city, he couldn't be idle even if he was happy, especially at this time.

After returning to Thunder Eagle City, he immediately called Old Jack who stayed in the city and asked him to be responsible for settling the new residents he brought back, and seeing that Rocky had brought back so many people, Old Jack was stunned on the spot, and immediately got busy.

At the same time, Rocky once again turned on the flight mode of Thunderhawk City, away from this airspace where a big battle had just been fought.

Although he won the battle with Baron Wallin, it also meant that he was completely at odds with Thunderhawk City and the Myronde family, so Rocky had to prepare for the worst to prevent the other party from retaliating against him.

In the air battle that had just ended, Baron Walling had lost almost his entire fleet, and only a few reconnaissance ships had escaped back to Matu City, which could be said to have been a complete defeat, but the victorious Lodge had also suffered heavy losses.

At the beginning of the war, Rocky's fleet had a total of twenty-seven warships, of which three reconnaissance ships were destroyed by Orton, so there were only twenty-four left, but when he won the air battle and returned to Thunderhawk City, only nine warships were left, and in addition to the flagship and frigate, there were only seven reconnaissance ships left!

That is to say, after an air battle, Lodge won, but the loss of the fleet was more than two-thirds! And every ship that came back, from flagships to frigates to reconnaissance ships, was scarred!

The only thing that makes people feel quite relieved is probably the fact that the flagship and the frigate are still in good condition, although these two large warships have also been damaged, but they are good men when they repair them.

In addition, in terms of the loss of personnel, the loss of Thunder Eagle City is relatively small, pay attention, it is not the loss of personnel, but the loss of personnel of Thunder Eagle City.

At the beginning of the war, Rocky kept an eye on it, he assigned the crew of Thunder Eagle City to the flagship and frigate, and the crew hired from Nightless God City was arranged by him on a reconnaissance ship, so when the war ended, because the two large warships were still there, the loss of all the crew members of Thunder Eagle City was naturally very small, and the loss of those hired crew members was large.

But there is no way to do it, Rocky doesn't want anyone to die, but if someone has to die, he'd rather leave the car behind and let someone else die.

All in all, Rocky's losses in this battle were very large, so in the face of the possible retaliation of the Myronte family, he could only choose to avoid its edge, slow down for a while, and wait until he recovered before thinking about it in the long run.

Three days passed quickly, and Thunder Eagle City had long since moved away from the previous airspace under the full force of the flight, and at the same time, after three days had passed, Old Jack had already arranged all the personnel that Rocky had brought back.

"My lord, this is the specific information of the new residents, you can take a look. ”

In the main hall of the city, Old Jack handed Rocky a thick piece of information, which he sorted out after counting the new residents.

After taking this information and looking at it a few times, Rocky couldn't help but smile, he didn't expect that the thousand people handed over to him by Matu were quite high-quality, and there were quite a lot of young and middle-aged people in them.

This was somewhat unexpected, he thought that Matu would give him a thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, but he didn't expect the other party to be quite realistic, and the people who handed him over were very even, the elderly, the prime, and the children.

In fact, it's not that Matu is real, but that he can't help it.

Of course, Mattu also thought about handing over all the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city to Rocky, but don't forget, the old, weak, sick and disabled children are all young and strong, if Matu captures these people's parents and sends them to Rocky, then there will inevitably be a big mess in his Sky City, so Matu can only hand over the most useless and incompetent group of people in the city to Rocky as much as possible.

But his approach is nothing to Rocky, Thunder Eagle City is in the early stage of development, it doesn't matter if you have the ability or not, as long as you are willing to work and learn, it will be useful to Thunder Eagle City.

However, there are two sides to everything, although Rocky has robbed the population this time and made Thunder Eagle City grow a lot, but there have been many problems with it.

For example, Thunder Eagle City is in financial crisis again.

"My lord, we have to find a way to increase our fiscal revenue......

When Old Jack finished reporting on the administrative matters, Erin, who was in charge of finance, opened her mouth, and at this time, Erin became sad again, and as the population continued to increase, the financial pressure of Thunder Eagle City became the primary problem again.

There is no way, the population of Thunder Eagle City is increasing too fast, two or three months ago, it just absorbed a thousand people from Beishan Village, in order to allow these people to settle down, Rocky not only started the second phase of training, but also built a factory, but before these were finished, another thousand people were added, which made Thunder Eagle City's finances fall into a serious crisis.

You must know that the population of Thunder Eagle City has increased now, but the income has not increased with it.

Although the new leather factory has been completed, only a dozen people who can go to work in the factory have participated in the first phase of training, and only after the second phase of training can a large number of people take up their posts and the factory can be officially operational.

Prior to this, the main source of income for Thunder Eagle City was still the textile industry, but the people who were able to do it were still the original residents of Thunder Eagle City, which led to a serious imbalance between income and expenditure.

It is simply impossible for more than 1,000 people to earn income from their work and use it to feed 3,000 people.

"How long can the money in the vault last now?"

Of course, Rocky also knows how much pressure Thunder Eagle City's finances are facing, so he is actually thinking of a way.

"Counting the surplus in the treasury and counting the cloth exported in the next quarter, we can hold on for three months at most. ”

"Only three months ......?"

After learning that Thunder Eagle City would only be able to hold on for three months even if the rest of the treasury and the income from the sale of cloth in the next quarter were added, Rocky frowned unashamedly, because it meant that he had to find a way to open source it within three months, otherwise Thunder Eagle City would not be able to hold on......
