Chapter 450 [Financial Issues]

Looking at the secretary general of the empire in front of her, Princess Mu Ying Yang Yue fell silent.

Seeing the silence of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Secretary-General took advantage of the victory to pursue and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty's meaning is not to let you pay for the imperial army in all aspects, but to let Your Highness do what you can." ”

Let the Star-Moon Kingdom pay for the Imperial Army, the Secretary-General naturally knows that the Star-Moon Kingdom can't afford to pay.

The current fleet of the empire is extremely large, even if hundreds of fourth-level civilizations are asked to pay, they may not be able to buy it.

"Hongu can only pay for a combined fleet."

After a moment, Princess Mu Ying gritted her teeth and said.

A level 4.7 civilization, paying for a combined fleet of a level 5 civilization, is already the maximum limit she can do.

After all, her Star and Moon Kingdom is already the sole overlord of the Spirit Cage universe.

There are also countless subordinate civilizations under its command, and there are no lack of two or three fourth-level civilizations.

Therefore, she can barely pay for the empire.

"Your Highness, refresh! The minister then returned to the empire and informed His Majesty of the news, and I believe that His Majesty will be pleased to learn about it. ”

The Secretary-General bowed slightly, and immediately prepared to leave.

"Wait."

"What else does Your Highness command?"

The Secretary-General paused and looked at Princess Mu Ying suspiciously.

"Say hello to my father, mother, and eldest sister for this palace."

Princess Mu Ying said.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Go ahead!"

After the secretary general left, Princess Mu Ying had a toothache.

I was actually knocked out by my father one day.

Does she dare not give it?

If you don't give it, when the time comes, there will really be a father and daughter's filial piety, and it will be a big joke in the world.

……

The next day.

The Secretary-General has returned from the world of the Spirit Cage.

She stood respectfully in the imperial study, looked at His Majesty the Emperor sitting on the emperor's chair, and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Mu Ying, on behalf of the Xingyue Kingdom, is willing to support a T0-level combined fleet for the empire. ”

"I'm glad to know that I'm sharing the burden for the Empire."

Hearing this, Yang Yu was satisfied with the bottom of his eyes.

There is a girl in my family who has just grown up.

And Princess Yang Yue, who is far away in the world of "Spirit Cage", still doesn't know the Secretary-General's words, if she knows, people will be confused.

The combined fleet that Hongu is talking about is not a T0-level combined fleet, but a T1-level combined fleet, right?

"By the way, Your Highness, greetings to you."

Secretary-General Lin Zijin said respectfully.

"I see."

Yang Yu bowed his head slightly and said, "Stand down!" ”

"No."

The Secretary-General bowed and exited the Imperial Study.

Looking at the back of the secretary general's departure, Yang Yu had a faint relief in his eyes.

He understood that Lin Zijin should go to the harem again.

He still knows his daughter.

"Your Majesty."

That's when it happened.

The figure of the canopy gradually appeared in front of Emperor Yang Yu.

"What?"

Yang Yu looked at the canopy that appeared, and the smile in his eyes gradually converged.

Suddenly.

He has the prestige that belongs to the emperor.

"According to the statistics of the Heavenly Canopy, the empire's resources are currently overloaded, and if it can't be solved, the empire will be wiped out in 150,000 years."

Tianmu said solemnly: "Tianmu suggests that the resource supply of the Imperial Engineering Academy be reduced again, or the construction problem of the empire may be reduced. ”

"Da-da-da-da."

In the imperial study, the sound of crisp knuckles and tapping on the table sounded.

Every time the sound of knuckles tapping on the table sounded, it meant that the emperor was thinking about something.

It also indicates that there will be big moves ahead.

And the figure of the canopy gradually disappeared in the imperial study.

"Chuan Long Rank, Bai Qi, Ouyang."

After a while, Yang Yu said in a deep voice.

"No."

The voice of the Imperial Light Brain Star resounded in the imperial study, and then fell into an endless silence.

Less than half an hour.

Prime Minister Long Zhi, Minister of Military Aircraft Bai Qi, and Finance Minister Ou Yang, who had just started work, came to the imperial study in person.

The Emperor's summons, unless there is a war.

Otherwise, you have to come in person.

Otherwise, it is disrespectful to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Ministers."

Long Zhi, Bai Qi and Ou Yang immediately saluted the emperor.

"No need to be polite."

"The purpose of summoning the three of them this time is also very simple."

"Resources."

Yang Yu looked at the three core tycoons of imperial power present and said.

"Your Majesty, according to the current development of the empire, it is enough in terms of resources, but after Your Majesty promised to provide more resources to the Imperial Academy of Engineering, this will make the empire's resources a little stretched, and even make the empire's income overloaded."

"If this continues, there is a high probability that the empire will collapse."

Ou Yang pondered for a moment and explained his current situation.

Subsequently.

He glanced at Bai Qi, the Minister of Military Aircraft next to him, and said, "Unless, reduce the military expenditure of the empire now, the construction of the empire can stabilize the empire's finances, or reduce the capital output of the imperial engineering academy." ”

"No! The army's military expenditure has been suppressed to the lowest state over the years, and if it continues to be reduced, it will be a very unfavorable thing for the empire. ”

Bai Qi immediately refuted the words of Chancellor of the Exchequer Ou Yang, what are you kidding?

Cutting the military spending of the empire?

The Imperial Military Spending has been cut from 25% to 18% today, do you still want to cut it?

Why don't you die?

Aren't you afraid of a backlash from the Imperial Army?

"The construction of the empire must not be stopped, and it is impossible to reduce military spending, and of course, the project funds of the Imperial Academy of Engineering cannot be broken."

"Cutting off the project funds of the Imperial Academy of Engineering is tantamount to cutting off the future of the empire."

"Some projects are broken and restarted, and the cost will be far greater than the current empire can afford."

"I don't recommend cutting the Imperial Academy of Engineering's project funding."

Long Zhi said in a deep voice.

"In that case, it can only raise the tax revenue of the empire, and increase the tax revenue of the dependent civilizations."

Chancellor of the Exchequer Ou Yang saw that the two bigwigs disagreed, and said after a while.

"Raising the tax of the empire, this is not possible, the current tax of the empire, has reached a critical value, if the tax is raised, it will lead to the bankruptcy of many companies at the same time, it will also make the empire appear unstable, increase the tax of the subsidiary civilization, increase by about 1% ~ 3.5%, but no problem, if the increase exceeds 3.5%, it is likely to lead to the affiliated civilization, unwilling, or even the other way around."

Long Zhi said.

"Don't want to? If you don't want to, then fight. ”

Ou Yang snorted coldly.

The entire universe belongs to my Star Empire, and you affiliated civilizations are vassal states at the top of the sky, and you want to rebel?

I'm afraid I don't want to live anymore.

"When did you follow that guy Ouyang Xiu and learn like this? Fighting at every turn? ”

Long Zhi frowned, and said, "If you want to get rich, then be calm and fight?" Fighting a war will only make the empire's resources export like flowing water. ”

"That's it! Construction cannot be stopped, military spending cannot be reduced, and the engineering institute cannot be stopped, then it is up to you. ”
