Chapter 249: The Imperial Court's Harvest

Not only Fang Jinzhe, but another employee in the logistics chain of Yonghe Zhisheng also found a different place, located in the southeast of Gaia, in a small town called Aili, there is an ancient castle with no people.

If Feige wanted to find out the history of the goddess, he had to find some stories and relics left by the gods, so he extracted a lot of relevant content from the system and distributed it to the employees of Yonghe Zhisheng.

However, most of the time, this information is just rumors, after all, most people in Gaia do not have access to the existence of God.

Especially in the case of the fall of the goddess, there are too few who know these secrets and are willing to tell others.

"I found two more today, let's see what we catch." Feige took this as good news and told Gesiah, who was afraid to continue drinking. This goddess has been worried that the demon king will settle accounts with her recently, and she is so scared and worried that she doesn't dare to sleep when she returns to the coffin, for fear that she won't be able to wake up.

A goddess instigated to this point? And until now it is not clear how the goddess of Gaia died, Feig thought helplessly.

At this time, the Imperial City of Gaia was about to come in a storm, and Duke Donald was already standing in front of Her Majesty the Empress, waiting to listen to the teachings.

Many of the inspectors on the side stood up straight, and even John of the kingdom's army had a solemn face.

"In addition to the run, the poor on East Main Street began to pour into the hospitals run by the Sigmars, where the herbs were more curative. They also opened several schools, which are now also overcrowded, and more importantly, in order to attend classes in their schools, it is necessary to work in power plants and machinery factories. ”

Both factories now have shares in Her Majesty the Empress, and Donald's main purpose in saying this is simple, "The middle class in the royal city has begun to waver, do we need to intervene?" ”

"For the sake of the stability of the imperial court, we really need to interfere further, and the temple has been happy recently, giving a lot of purification potions." The Empress gave Donald a meaningful look, "But the quality of these potions is not good. ”

"I'll tell the high priest of the temple." Donald bowed his head cautiously, as if he had never been so afraid.

Of course, he and the temple are disconnected, otherwise they would not be under the nose of the temple, assisting Sophia and them to earn god coins.

"What action do you want to take against the Sigmar Brave?" An inspector stepped out, "After all, they've caused chaos on East Main Street. ”

"When will East Main Street not be chaotic?" The Empress smiled and said, "You have to be careful of the run, of course, it is not without our benefits, we can get more divine coins than I imagined, and we can speed up the collection of supplies from Sigma." ”

Everyone was stunned, not knowing what the Empress was talking about.

"Our Chancellor of the Exchequer should be here, let him tell me how the royal court's financial revenue has been in order to maintain the war in recent years." The Empress had never been so formal, and most of the time, she sat in her seat like a vase and listened quietly.

Donald's cold sweat broke out all of a sudden, but then he thought about it, he just raised the threshold for exchanging divine coins for gold coins, and took some gold coins from the middle class.

These gold coins were not all greedy themselves, but gave half to the royal family, otherwise so many gold coins would make Her Majesty the Empress find out the problem.

But the cost of the purification potion, I still swallowed it, because now the purification potion, is no longer valuable, there is no need to give the empress another part.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer bowed his head and said respectfully: "At the end of last year, after several frictions with the Rhine, our treasury was only 3,000 gold coins, and Her Majesty the Empress sold eleven estates, saved 30,000 bottles of purification potions, and sold a large number of jewels in the imperial court, and finally made up enough for the third trial, and provided a total of 110,000 gold coins with private property before the tax accounts were closed last quarter, stabilizing the war situation in the north. ”

"Because of the bumper harvest in the south, a total of 130 million kilograms of grain were harvested this year, of which 80 million kilograms were supplied to the north and the border areas of Celta, and another 30 million catties were supplied to the five noble territories affected by the floods in southern Angola, and this year is the only year in the last ten years that there is a surplus of grain......

The ministers in the palace listened to the report of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and one by one sweated like rain.

At a time when the entire imperial court was so weak, these nobles, officials, were busy ganging up, restricting the empress's policies, trying to find ways to exploit loopholes, trying to withhold the expenses of disaster relief and war, and forcing the army on the border to be self-reliant.

Even John felt weak, and in order to ensure that he and his sister Marda's army had enough purifying potions, he imported a large amount of liquor from Sigma and sold it to the extremely cold land further north of the Rhine.

"John, tell me how many soldiers the kingdom army has lost in the past ten years." The Empress's voice was cold, majesticly ignoring everyone.

John sighed and said, "In the past ten years, fifteen million soldiers have been lost on the northern border, and more than four million of them have died in the barracks due to the lack of purification potions. ”

Death here refers to being executed by the army.

Once demonized, without a purification potion, they can only be executed to prevent them from harming others.

But this act that violates human nature will accumulate in the hearts of soldiers again and again, becoming the seeds of demonization.

"In the last ten years, three thousand paladins have fallen from the Kingdom Guard, and even more from the temple, a total of thirteen thousand." John opened his mouth, a little dumbfounded, he was embarrassed to say how many of these people had died because of the lack of purifying potions.

"Duke Donald, tell me how many gold coins the royal family has harvested from those who exchange divine coins." The Empress's voice lifted everyone's heart.

Poverty, death, recession......

Everyone knew that the Imperial Court was coming to an end.

But no one thinks they can go against the times.

They are either drunk and dreaming of death before the trend of the times comes, or they are worried about the country and the people, and they are exhausted all day long.

The Gaian nobles, who don't even know where to run away, may not be sober even in this situation.

"I, we...... In total, we have harvested more than 450 million gold coins, and I never thought that the nobles of the royal court would have so much money. After Donald finished speaking, he trembled, "I, I will dedicate all the gold coins to the royal court." ”

With these 400 million gold coins, neither the Paladins, nor the Border Army, nor Celta Celta will have to worry about having no money to stop the enemy on the border line.

All they really need to worry about is that they don't have enough potions, they don't have enough powerful paladins.
