Chapter 156: Credit Money
"Your Excellency, that's the way it is, the nobles in the south are not good for the Warcraft to resist, and they should send troops......" Before Verus could finish speaking, the Empress waved her hand and motioned for him to stop talking.
Gaia's overall tension is not a day or two, and she has long been tired of hearing these advices.
If the advice is useful, then it is really good.
"You should know that now that the whole line of soldiers is on the border, the Rhine has been occupied by Warcraft, and I'm afraid we can't send troops to the south anymore." The Empress raised her eyebrows, "And I heard you say that the one who was demoted by my father was very useful to Armand Hair, right, with him, he can resist for a while, right?" ”
Verus opened his mouth, if it weren't for Donald's presence, he would have said something about Gesia.
The goddess had thoroughly infiltrated Gaia, and the empress should know the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes, Verus, you should know how much resources it takes to deal with Warcraft." Donald stood aside and said helplessly, "Originally, guarding the frontier was the duty of every nobleman, but since the old king took office, the task of guarding has fallen on the royal court. The annual expenses of the imperial court are innumerable, and if the south is not particularly serious, it is better not to waste it. Of course, if the Marquis of Vane is willing, he can also make an offering to the Empress as I do, and I think that if Vane is willing, he can do it. ”
The decline of the old aristocracy was due to Gaia's onerous taxes.
Donald was able to provide a portion of the royal family each year in addition to taxes, but other nobles couldn't.
Not all nobles were able to occupy most of the land, and Donald did so only because the northernmost lands belonged to him.
With him, if other nobles want to deal with Warcraft, they must provide more supplies just like him.
"It's also said that it's not that simple to deal with the demons, since it's not that serious, there is no need to send troops alone, we can't even solve the purification potion of the northern warriors, and we can't provide it to the south." The Empress said coldly, convinced of Donald's words.
This made it very difficult for Verus to do, and with Donald here, there was no way to mention the matter of purifying potions.
Gesia's affairs can only be put aside.
"There's no need for the empress to worry about the small city in the south, the demonic beasts there won't have follow-up supplies, and they won't become climate-threatening." Donald said respectfully, "I'm here to bring you good news. ”
"What's the news?" The Empress asked, squinting.
"Another big victory for the North, this is the secret report that has just been received." Donald handed the letter in his hand.
Verus frowned unconsciously, he knew that he couldn't say any more.
The secret report, which was supposed to go directly to the empress, actually arrived in Donald's hands first.
The other party was obviously bullying the empress, so that the secret reports from other inspectors to the empress would be directly in Donald's hands, Verus lowered his head, fortunately, he had not directly sent news about Sigma to the empress before, let alone mentioned the matter of the goddess.
His own secret report has always passed through the Inspectorate, and it will be checked by the Empress first, and after checking, the Empress will provide it to the Temple as appropriate.
It's good now, if Donald looks at it first, the temple will definitely see the secret report first.
At this time, when it comes to the matter of the southern goddess, what will be the reaction of the temple?
If there is really a fight with the south, Gaia will definitely not be able to hold on.
"Okay, good, in this way, we don't need to provide so many purification potions to the north. The manpower can also be moved closer to the west, and the pressure on Celta is also very high, so let the kingdom's army send another 100,000 people to Celta. ”
Celta in the west is also an important town in Gaia.
The lord of this town is the little Marquis Howard, who is only eleven years old this year. His father died young, and he was a newly divided nobleman during the old king's reign.
Like Vane's father, Howard's father was a brave warrior, so the old king placed his fiefdom in Celta in the west, which was a hilly place with complex terrain and a very variable climate, which was very prone to rain. Around Celta, there are a lot of monsters and demons, and I think Howard's father died in a battle.
The young Marquis naturally could not support the family, and his mother Jeannifer became the de facto ruler of Celta.
The mother and son have asked for the support of the imperial court more than once, and they have also paid a lot of gold coins to dredge up the relationship.
"Let's do it, the war in the north has dragged on for too long, if only those demons could be stopped. I was worried about the Rhine being broken for a long time, but fortunately the goddess favored us. ”
"Thank you, Goddess." The Empress smiled slightly, "Okay, you can go, I need to read the book for a while......"
When Verus came out, it was as if he had been splashed with cold water.
He didn't look at Donald, and walked out of the Queen's castle with a bit of grief and indignation.
Soon, Donald's carriage passed by Verus and came to a coffee shop not far from the castle.
When did this coffee shop open? Verus didn't quite understand, and he couldn't help but follow, and then noticed that the boss didn't look the same.
When he just checked out, it seemed to be a god coin?
"Can I settle here with Divine Coins?" Verus found a place to sit down and said to the clerk who walked by, "I just came back from the south, and I forgot to ...... when I came back."
"Of course, there are a lot of people like you." The clerk blinked, "Many merchants don't like to queue up, anyway, they still have to go next time, of course our small store can accept it." ”
Who doesn't love a god coin? Now there is a trend in the Imperial City of Gaia, that is, to use divine coins for settlement.
You don't need to believe in the goddess, you just need to accept the goddess's part about the god coin.
These divine coins are invisible, as long as you pay, they will go directly to the other party's account, every payment is recorded, and what you buy is also explained. Don't be afraid of stealing, not afraid of robbing, and don't have to carry a heavy money bag when you go out, it's very convenient.
Although it is not explicitly stated that Gaia's coins are not important, people still prefer to save some change to the goddess, which is very convenient when spending.
Now that the nobles are also involved in the exchange of divine coins, the ordinary people of Gaia also have a bottom in their hearts.
This is something that Feige didn't expect, the convenience of the god coin broke the monopoly of money, although the people of Gaia still like to use gold coins to buy huge sums of money, but the people at the bottom are already keen on the settlement of the god coin.
