The Empire's assistance pressure on the Beamon Kingdom and the Elven Kingdom is also huge. When www.biquge.info the alliance agreement was signed with the two countries, it was during the peak of the Verona Empire, and of course those aids could be afforded. However, now that the empire is adrift, this aid is overburdened.

Anyway, in a word, lack of money. What to do then? The empire has already imposed a heavy war tax, and those who can get a large amount of money in a short period of time can only borrow again.

So the unjust head Dipu was once again remembered by the whole empire. It's ridiculous that whoever makes Dipu feel happy every time he touches the money? People are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, and Dipu once again becomes the money bag of the empire. Of course, Dipu could no longer be asked to borrow or donate, and the empire was afraid of forcing Dipu to hurry, so in the end someone came up with an idea and found a "very reasonable" excuse.

What excuse? That is, fair trade!

Do you remember that young master Xiuren? The one with one of the three words of fate? Didn't he become a dead ghost in the hands of Dipp, and the Taiyin family of Xiuren also participated in the southern rebellion? And the empire has also confiscated all the property of the Taiyin family, this time it is to resell these properties to Dipp, and at the same time discount of 2.5 billion!

"Two and a half billion?" said Dip looked at Count Sicma with a smirk, a "you're here again" expression.

Count Sicoma hurriedly explained: "The Imperial Treasury has already calculated, and all the property will definitely be converted into more than three billion, two and five billion at a fixed price for you, and that is also because you are the only guardian knight of Her Majesty the Empress." If you don't believe me, you can take a look at the list of properties I have brought, and you can ask the treasurer of your territory to calculate it. ”

"What do you look at you?" Dipu said politely, "As far as the relationship between the two of us is concerned, we don't say 'you' anymore, but 'you'?

Count Sicoma is not a very good talker, and besides, he knows the inside story, so he is also a little weak-hearted. It is true that at that time there were three billion of assets calculated, but by now, there is already a lot of moisture in it. For example, the Zhiju Sword Trading Company has long since become lifeless because it has not had the protection and credibility guarantee of the Taiyin family, and it is only one step away from bankruptcy. And in the accounts, it is worth nearly a billion.

And real estate or something. Like a scenic resort, it can be difficult to find a seller, unless it is a blood-vomiting sale. In addition, due to the absence of the Tyin family, many of the slaves in care of them have all gone to fend for themselves, so that the real estate has become dilapidated and in disrepair, and it will cost a lot of money to restore it to its original state.

There is very little cash left, and there is very little property that can be realized quickly, and most of it is tasteless and discarded. And most importantly, if this large fortune is to maintain its value, it needs a very strong imperial background. Otherwise, it will be easily encroached upon by various forces, and eventually end up empty-handed.

However, Count Sicoma is the representative of the empire, and he can only speak on behalf of the interests of the empire: "Hehe, you are too sensitive, right?

"Don't do this! I haven't met Tracey since I met her. The more Di Pu thought about it, the more annoyed he became, "It's okay to extort so much money, and I don't even let go of my little obedient." The most infuriating thing is that how many men have died? ”

"That's Her Majesty, be careful when you speak. ”

"Attention? Where am I sorry for her? I finally opened up the situation in the Northern Military District, and an order drove me back to the Black-Eyed Collar. I'm still mindful that I'm afraid of her, and she's not my ......."

"Huh?"

"Okay! I don't agree anyway. Nothing will be said and will not agree. ”

The first informal private exchange quickly broke up. But both sides are noble people with status, so they have to maintain proper etiquette on the surface. Banquets, balls, social events. Then came the official meeting. And Dipu had already discussed this matter within the Black Eye Collar, and everyone was unanimous in their rejection. Therefore, such a formal meeting will certainly not be fruitful. Moreover, the actions of those alchemists dispelled Dipu's concerns, and they began to build the teleportation array of Blackeye City.

The second official meeting then broke down, followed by the third and fourth ...... , what made Tip feel a little admired was that this Count Sicoma actually had the courage to spit on himself, and insisted on staying in the black collar after frequent white eyes. It didn't cost much to entertain a few people anyway, and Dipu was not interested in having a fight with Count Sicoma, so in the end, he deliberately avoided the pesky fly and went about his business.

First of all, of course, is the material disposal of the Forbidden Demon God Ruins. After leaving half of the magic core, the other half was quickly realized, and a total of more than 50 million gold coins were obtained. The amount of gold coins realized is not as large as expected, and due to the popularity of magic bricks and the sharp price reduction, the price reduction trend of the magic crystal core on the continent has also begun to appear. Magic potions and bursting arrows take time to craft.

Then a large order was placed, and while visiting Revina and the child, a large purchase of food and daily necessities was proposed to her, and a large purchase was also made from the Magic Machinery Workshop. Such a large-scale purchase, of course, is not something that one Grenville City and Sequoia Collar can afford. However, with the Earl of Edinburgh's network, it will not be very difficult.

The Earl of Edinburgh also showed great energy, and the interest-free, low-interest borrowings from other nobles also greatly exceeded Dipp's estimates. The empire's financial predicament can't be managed, and the black eye leader's finances should be fine in the short term.

The construction of various large-scale projects is also being carried out at an accelerated pace under the auspices of Lisa. With money and people, it's much easier to get things done. And the exploration of Sunset Mangyuan is also progressing well. Surprisingly, quite a few small deposits were discovered. Although these mineral deposits are inconvenient to mine and transport, they can maintain the self-use of the black eye collar, save a lot of money, and solve a lot of labor problems.

The division of the various fiefs was even more impressive, and the first advance payment of the territorial tax was quickly received, and the nobles and knights from the Red Lion Principality brought a lot of money and labor, and immediately invested in the development of their fiefs. There has also been progress in renting out land in Blackeye City. However, the land that is scheduled to be sold to the major forces is not interested in it for the time being. Dipu is not in a hurry, anyway, the news of the Forbidden Demon God Ruins will be made public next year, and I am not afraid that no one will come to buy it at that time. (To be continued.) )
