The fifth gentle and generous woman in the world, showing off her wisdom

Lorraine listened to the girl's words, and couldn't help but think of a martial arts story she had watched a long time ago. There is a master in it, who claims to be the fifth in the world.

This kind of title, but the man carefully calculated, is extremely reasonable. It's not in vain, but it's also not modest.

So the man was pretty scary.

When facing a strong enemy that he couldn't beat, he knew that his strength was not good, so he wouldn't have a hot brain at all, learn what kind of gourd and radish, what kind of spiritual victory**, and play "Long Live Charge" to go shopping. Rather, they will actively flee in order to fight again",

Just as he was thinking wildly, he didn't notice the surprise in the eyes of the other young girls.

Catherine, Adele. Lorina, and Hilmelia, who was sitting in the back, glanced at each other. Everyone saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Catherine thought for a while, and said curiously: "Fifth in the world" Then tell me who is in front of you?"

Melina's big blue innocent eyes flashed, and she said, "As you wish." ”

She paused, then snapped her fingers and counted seriously, "The first in line." It is the empress Wu Zetian who is a woman, but she is the emperor of the world!"

Lorraine felt his jaw click, as if he had broken a bone, if it weren't for his quick reaction. Holding it with his hand, the jaw bone almost fell to the ground, smashing his own foot face.

When Catherine's daughters heard this, they were all stunned on the spot as if they had been struck by lightning and cold.

It was only after half a day that Catherine reacted.

She looked at the girl who was as innocent and lovely as a red riding hat. He nodded and said, "Hmm." We've heard Lorraine say this guy too. The woman who ruled a powerful empire in the East

As he spoke, he glared at Lorraine fiercely, and then continued, "And then? Who else?"

Meilina smiled a little embarrassedly under the gaze of everyone, then crossed her fingers and continued: "The second is Empress Catherine. Her phrase, "All of Europe will be prostrate at my feet." Sounds really great

Lorraine listened to the words full of domineering spirit, couldn't help but be stunned, looked up, and saw that the girl's big eyes were shining with countless stars, obviously admiring the empress very much. (Note that appreciation, not worship, because the object of worship is something you can't achieve.) And the appreciation is among the same kind of people. ）

Catherine twitched the corners of her mouth, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Go on." ”

Melina immediately said, "The other one is my sister, Isabel." She is now doing her best to govern the Almohads Empire. Let the people live as happily as possible

Catherine heard this and couldn't hold back any longer.

She turned her head sideways, looked at Leo next to her, and saw that the ruffian was still bowing his head, carefully calculating what was in his plan.

Catherine's eyes immediately appeared in front of Leo's eyes as he grew up, under the black leather whip wielded by the girl, prostrating himself to his ears.

She couldn't help muttering, "My poor brother!"

Seeing that Catherine was still immersed in fantasy, Adele interjected curiously and asked, "My Linna, you haven't said who the last one is?"

Melina raised her head, glanced at Catherine, and then lowered her head a little embarrassedly, and said. The latter, of course, is our eldest princess, the female governor of the Eastern Province, Sister Catherine

Catherine was stunned for a moment and said, "There is still me here?"

Melina blinked her big eyes and said as a matter of course, "Of course. Sister Nicole, you are not only well-versed in politics and the Eastern Province of the Empire in an orderly manner, but you also worked hard to raise Leo. It can be called the fourth gentle and generous in the world. A good woman in the show. ”

Catherine looked at Melina's admiring gaze and was very proud at the moment.

She was even taller with her already plump breasts, and then glanced at Lorraine obliquely out of the corner of her eye. That obviously means that there is no basis for an official investigation. This sister is the fourth gentle and generous in the world. Xiuwai Huizhong, a virtuous and virtuous woman, you bastard got cheap, and you won't wake up laughing if you don't do climbing, go beautiful

Lorraine saw what she understood, and hurriedly nodded and laughed together.

But when he turned his head and looked at the girl who claimed to be the fifth gentle and virtuous girl in the world, the girl with bright big eyes flashing did not look like a red riding hat. It's one, the granddaughter of Grandma Wolf.

Even Lorraine wondered if she was dragging a wolf tail behind her body.

At this time, the girl saw that everything was fine, so she walked up to Leo, smiled and narrowed her big eyes into crescents, and said, "Leo." We said yesterday that we were going to play in the palace today. Have you forgotten?"

Leo waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go, go, don't you see what I'm busy with?"

Melina touched the nail, but she didn't care, she still smiled and said, "Don't be busy, wouldn't it be better to leave these things to someone who has come to do them?" Let's go to the palace to play, okay?"

Although she discussed politely, Lorraine heard a hint of murder in her words.

Leo raised his head at this time and said angrily, "You this"

He said that there was this. Seeing that Meilina had already picked up a rag doll next to her, and then pasted it on the wall, and then beat it with her fists. out, tom" loud sounds. ......

Everyone watched from the sidelines, and immediately they were all sweating profusely.

Lei Ku was also taken aback, and his face was "brushed." As soon as the ground sounded, it turned white.

Melina raised her head, stared at her big blue eyes, squeezed out her voice from between her white teeth, and said, "Do you listen to me?"

Leo wiped the cold sweat on his head at the moment, quickly jumped up, and said categorically: "Melina, where you say to go, let's go"

Melina snorted coldly, threw the rag doll in her hand, then turned around, lifted the corner of her skirt, and made an impeccable court etiquette to everyone, saying, "Everyone, you should be busy first." I had something to do with Leo, so I took my leave

said. Glancing at Leo out of the corner of his eye, he then "snorted", raised his head proudly, put his hands behind his back, and walked out.

Leo saw this, and hurriedly followed with a hippie smile.

Everyone looked at the two of them in the distance. All of them were dumbfounded.

Lorena muttered, "Now", now children, how can current children "Why are I so good that I am old? Or are they growing up too fast".

Adele also couldn't help but say, "Poor Leo

Catherine was stunned: "I am the fourth gentle and virtuous woman in the world"

Then. Vera had also finished eating, looked at Leo's shadow, let out a long sigh, and said, "Alas, poor boy, when you grow up, you will also suffer." Isn't it, young master?.

Lorraine felt the same way at the moment, and said, "Yes, Weixin,"

When he said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and immediately turned his head, stared at Vera's blue eyes, and said in a cold voice: "What do you mean by the word "also"?

Vera immediately realized her gaffe, took a step back in surprise, looked left and right, and said, "Oops." As I remember, it's almost time for morning tea. ”

Lorraine shouted angrily, "Wei'er, you just had breakfast. The sun has just risen, what kind of morning tea are you drinking?

Vera looked at Lorraine's angry gaze, lowered her head at the moment, and patted her pretty face. said: "Young master, don't care about this kind of detail." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed the hem of his skirt and turned around and ran.

Lorraine was behind her, waving her fists, and shouted angrily, "Don't run, you dead girl, tell me clearly, what does the word "also" mean?

Vera listened to him. The delicate plump body instinctively dodged a broom, two books, and a feather duster flying from behind him.

Then he fled faster. In the blink of an eye, he turned a bush of flowers, and he had already disappeared.

Lorraine's seven orifices are smoking. He waved his fist and shouted angrily, "You dead girl." If you have the ability, don't let me see it today."

The women were on the side, but they were snickering.

When Lorraine saw it, she was even more furious.

As soon as he turned around, he shouted angrily at Adele, "It's all to blame."

Adele was shocked at the moment. Said: "What's the matter with me?"

Lorraine said: "It's not that you showed her those messy books and taught her badly

Seeing him breathe on his body, Adele rolled her eyes and sneered at each other, Lorina hurriedly said, "Stop, don't make trouble, everyone." I'm down to business. ”

The crowd was stunned for a moment. Then he also followed the persuasion next to him, and said: "Okay, okay, don't make trouble, it's important to get down to business, it's important to get down to business." ”

Adele glared at Lorraine hatefully, and whispered reluctantly: "You wait, see how I clean up tonight"

Lorraine rolled her eyes at the moment. also whispered: "I don't know who is often cleaned up."

Lorina saw that everyone sat down again, and then said, "The things you want me to do have been done, and my father will bring back what you want after work in the afternoon, and I will bring it to you when the time comes." ”

Everyone immediately forgot about their previous suspicions. They cheered and high-fived. Dao: With that account book, if you calculate it carefully, you can know the details of Naian. ”

It was afternoon. Estimating that the time was almost up, Lorraine and Catherine did their best and went together to visit the Chief of War.

Padres heard the news that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to appoint Lorraine as the governor of Naian. I was also very surprised. He said to the two: "I just discussed the transfer of the Marquis of Marleton with His Majesty today. Still wondering how it could be so sudden, it turns out that His Majesty has already planned it. ”

He thought for a moment and said: "Although Lorraine goes, this is a good opportunity after all, if you miss it, it will be difficult to have it again, Lorraine should challenge yourself, although the place in Naian, although it is a little remote, on the border, but the location is good, it is very safe, there are constant troubles, pirates also appear from time to time, but there will be no big problems." You can rest assured in this regard. ”

Lorraine listened to his words and felt a lot more relieved at the moment. To know the security of the Palres Chief. It should be said that the one who understands the most is the deepest, since he said that the problem is not big, then no matter how big the problem is, it is not a problem.

They talked to Padres for a long time.

Padres was intrigued by Lorraine's concentrated use of magicians. He inquired in detail about the situation of the original defense battle of Ye Danlin.

Lorraine faced this respected veteran general who had fought all his life, and he didn't dare to hide his secrets, so he answered them all one by one.

By the time the two of them said goodbye and returned home, it was already dusk.

Lorina had already thrown the thick cards and a lesson on the desk, and Leo was holding some of them seriously.

Seeing Lorraine and Catherine walk in, Leo waved the text in his hand. His face turned red with excitement, and he said loudly: "Boss, this place is full of gold"

Lorina was sitting in her chair with a teacup for a long time, seeing Leo so excited. Said: "Is it so exaggerated as you said? There are so many old guys in the finance department who have worked for decades that can't show up." You've only been watching it for three minutes and you'll know it all?"

Catherine saw that Melina was present, and in order to set an example for her, she sat down very ladylikely, and then said, "Well, what they see is always those numbers." As long as the books are flattened, everything will be fine, and who cares about what is behind these numbers

Luo Lina said: "Those big families in Ruman City, but some of them are talents, can't they see it." ”

Catherine snorted coldly, and said with a disdainful face: "It's not that I'm laughing at them, now these noble families in Ruman City, in addition to playing official * business * collusion * , forced buying and selling, in terms of business vision, they are a lot worse than Leo." Not to mention Lorraine

Lorena smiled wryly. said: "Okay, okay, I won't fight with you, anyway, in your eyes, Lorraine is good at everything."

Leo shouted from the side, "It was, if it weren't for the boss, how could we have made so much money in Almohad." ”

"That is". Adele also said on the side: "Don't forget, Lorina. Your wallet must have been filled by Lorraine, too.

Lorena stretched out her hand and made a gesture of surrender, and said, "You're all right, okay?"

Leo exclaimed dissatisfied, "It was meant to be"

Lorraine pulled a chair, sat down next to Leo, and said, "What's the big deal?"

Leo flicked his finger at the text in his hand. said: "For such a large territory in Nai An Province, the tax revenue comes from the land tax and trade tax, and the commercial tax is pitiful. Moreover, Naian guards the two large forests, and there is no wood processing industry. What does that mean?"

Lorraine shrugged and said, "There's a lot of money."

Leo slapped the table. "Yes." As you can see, the humans of Nedel are mainly farming, and the trade is focused on the crafts of the dwarves and elves. Taxation of the whole of Nai'an. It's as simple as that.

Really, what did the governors of Ne do? This is simply letting the gold coins flow into the Madidom Sea in vain, you see, you see, there is such a golden location, and the tax value paid every year is only more than three million gold coins. These people are literally stealing my money. ”

Later, Leo's heart ached like beating his chest. It was as if someone had taken a knife and dug into his flesh.

As the future heir of the Ruman Empire. Leo is very owner-like when it comes to money, and he can't rub sand in his eyes at all.

Lorraine thought for a moment and said, "There should be a reason. Maybe it's because the humans of Naian don't deal with other races, or maybe it's because those guys who like to live in caves and woods can't pull the consumption index

Leo rubbed his chin with one hand, nodded solemnly and said, "Well, it's very likely, whatever, anyway, this is our chance." You can't let go of the way to stimulate consumption. I still have a lot of them. Hey, hey, hey

Leo didn't know what bad water was bubbling in his head, and he laughed hard. Hearing this, everyone next to him was full of hair.

Catherine couldn't see it for the moment, got up and walked over, then shook her hand and gave Leo a violent shudder, snatched the text in Leo's hand, and looked through the text in her hand.

Leo touched his head and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Just say it if you want it, and don't you give it to you, don't you need to beat people all the time?"

Catherine ignored Leo's thoughts, and began to look at them seriously.

After a while, Catherine gave Lorraine the text in her hand, sighed, and said, "Leo is right, those governors of Ness. It's all a bunch of stupid people who haven't grown. For more than a hundred years. The tax revenue of Nai Ann has not changed much, and the province of Nai An is so big. It's the same as playing in vain. ”

Lorraine flipped through the text in his hand and saw that the taxes paid in Nai'an over the years had been fluctuating around three million, even eighty years ago. As the area of Nai An expanded, so did the population counted above. However, the tax situation remained unchanged at all, and the tax revenue from land and maritime trade was still divided evenly.

Luo Linsi paused for a moment, and then said, "Maybe it's because the alien problem in Nai'an is really strict, after all, the residents of the newly expanded area are all aliens. ”

Leo said disappreciatively, "Cut." What kind of reason is this, as the governor, they should solve this problem, it will not be like this, it has not improved for a hundred years. ”

Lorraine was very disappreciative in his heart, and secretly thought: If you can be the governor, you are all cattle. Catherine and Leo could see the problem. Of course, they can also see that since it has not been solved, it can only mean that this problem is very difficult to solve.

Lorraine said to Leo, "That's good. This glorious and great task is entrusted to you, and the prosperity of the economy of Nai An depends on our Flying Eagle Company

Leo slapped his chest. said ruthlessly: "No problem, leave it all to me, I promise to give you a step up a year." ”

Catherine was dissatisfied, and hammered Lorraine. said: "How can you be so lazy, these things are not your responsibility in the future." Still give Leo what reason. ”

Leo said: "It's okay, it's okay, the starting point of our Flying Eagle Company to develop its business and become the world's dominant big trust group started from Nai'an." ”
