"Damn, I seem to have forgotten something important …" Li Huailin suddenly felt like he had forgotten something as he walked out of the palace. He then thought for a moment, "Oh right, I seem to have forgotten to tell Anthony that Duke Lautner has contacted King Ryan …"
"Forget it …" Li Huailin thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to kill him soon anyway. Once he's dead, this matter will be over. It doesn't matter if I didn't tell him …"
That's right, Li Huailin had already forgotten about Cecil's matter after hearing about how fun it was to fight a war. He kept feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of what it was. The consequences were very serious …
It was already past nine in the morning by the time he finished his meeting with Anthony. At this time, Misty Rain had already gone offline to deal with some matters in the company. She had been so busy for the past two days that she didn't have time to come online. Li Huailin looked at his online friend list. They had finally come online. Li Huailin immediately contacted Feng Yiliu and the others.
"Tonight? Hmm, it's fine. There's no competition today. Tonight is fine. "Feng Yiliu immediately won the Ruins Exploration Team at night.
"Oh, tonight? Of course. I've been waiting for two days. Alright, let me know tonight. I'm leveling up now." Millennium Unchanging immediately agreed.
"You finally came online for me. You actually dared to stand me up. You're the first. Tonight? You're not standing me up again, are you? Alright, if you don't come, I'll really get angry. See you tonight. " After explaining to Jade Emperor for a while, Li Huailin finally settled the party for the night. It was really hard to be a party leader. It was so hard to form a party. Li Huailin finally understood how tiring it was to be the guild leader of Red Moon.
After meeting the King, Li Huailin had nothing else to do, so he returned to his fief. After all, he had to prepare for war, and he had to use his private army to fight. There were some things that needed to be prepared.
"My Lord!" As soon as he reached the entrance of the Duke's Mansion, the guards immediately rushed over.
"Inform all the ministers to have a meeting immediately," Li Huailin said.
As soon as the Duke gave the order, the people here immediately moved. Soon, all the ministers gathered in the conference room, waiting for Li Huailin's order.
Due to the number of talents slowly increasing, the people who came to help from the 2nd Division had also returned to the barracks. Li Huailin's current cabinet had also changed a little. The Minister of Finance was still Oliveira. He was doing a good job, so he hadn't changed his position. The Minister of Internal Affairs was now an NPC called Geert, a male human in his thirties. He had been working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs when Maccon was still around. Later, the Minister of Internal Affairs, Norman, had been promoted to the City Lord of Keimler in the suburbs by Li Huailin. Now it was Geert's turn to be promoted. Li Huailin saw that Geert's attributes were around 80, so he officially appointed him as the Minister of Internal Affairs.
The Minister of Military Affairs was Legg, who had just been promoted by Li Huailin. He was also sitting in the meeting room. Since the Minister of Foreign Affairs had already returned, the Minister of Foreign Affairs was promoted to an NPC called Gwenis, who was in her forties. Although she wasn't very pleasing to the eye, her attributes were quite good, so Li Huailin let her be the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Although he hadn't been in contact with her for a long time, he guessed that she was a woman who was strict with herself and others. She had few friends, but she was quite capable.
Sitting in the main seat, Li Huailin looked at the four people sitting below him. These were his most outstanding subordinates, and they looked quite good. Although there wasn't anyone particularly outstanding, they were all useful. It was already good enough that he could use them, unlike when he had first arrived. He couldn't even find a single person, and he almost had to use Leticia, who had only single-digit Charisma. It was simply miserable.
"Alright, your madam won't be able to come for the next few days. I'll be in charge for a few days. Now, if you have any work on hand, report to me." When Li Huailin wasn't around, Misty Rain basically made the decisions. Now that he was in charge, he wasn't used to it, so he let them report to him first.
"My Lord." Oliveira of the Ministry of Finance was the first to stand up and say, "Currently, the territory's finances are still relatively adequate. The Dean's Trade Association has already started a formal cooperation with us, and they are currently digesting a large amount of our food reserves. The territory's finances are still considered ample, and the construction of Camel City is progressing smoothly. It's estimated that it will be completed in 4 months. Currently, the biggest expenditure is the military horses. Due to the large number of warhorses that the Dean's Trade Association brought back, the cost of buying the horses alone is as high as 1.38 million gold coins. There's also the cost of building the horse farm and hiring the workers to take care of the horses."
"I don't quite understand what you're saying. I just want to ask, if we were to go to war now, would we have money?" Li Huailin had a headache when it came to finances.
"War? With who? "The few people present were very surprised. Another war? But who? They had just made peace with the Elves, so it was unlikely that they would fight again. Could it be the Orcs? That was a little too far.
"My Lord, who are we going to war with?" Oliveira asked.
Li Huailin had no intention of telling them about fighting Duke Lautner, so he waved his hand and said, "Hmm, I'm just saying, for example, for example."
"Then, My Lord, what's the scale of the war? A few thousand people? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands? "Oliveira asked.
"Both sides add up to less than ten thousand," Li Huailin said.
"I see. In that case, a war of this scale will definitely not be a problem," Oliveira immediately said.
"That's good to hear." Li Huailin nodded. "What about the Internal Affairs Department?"
"Reporting, My Lord." On the other side, Geert stood up and said, "Regarding the labor issue you've arranged for the people, things are progressing smoothly. However, the people still don't understand the excessive wages. I've tried my best to persuade them, but they still think the wages are too high …"
"Then increase their workload and tire them to death, understand?" Li Huailin immediately said.
"This … the workload is already very heavy …" Geert said.
"If they raise their wages too high, increase their workload until they refuse to raise their positions, understand?" Li Huailin said. "Is there anything else?"
"There's nothing else, but I have a suggestion …" Geert said.
"Hmm, go ahead," Li Huailin said.
"I feel like we're lacking an internal intelligence department …" Geert said. "The Foreign Affairs Department is currently handling external intelligence, but for internal intelligence, such as the castellans … we don't have any such arrangements yet. I'm not sure what you think, My Lord."
"Oh, so it really is the Internal Affairs Department. I didn't expect you to bring up something like this," Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Please forgive me, My Lord," Geert immediately said.
"No, it's a good suggestion. We do need such a department. I'll leave this task to you. This department will be placed under the Internal Affairs Department. As for the person in charge, recommend me a capable person," Li Huailin said.
"Alright, I'll keep an eye on it," Geert immediately said.
"Okay. Next, the Military Department, Legg, right? I still remember him. "Li Huailin turned to Legg and said," Has the recruitment notice been sent out? "
"Yes, My Lord," Legg replied immediately.
"Wait, let me see …" Li Huailin opened his interface and looked at the Military Department in the territory's page. Sure enough, there were two new members under the Minister's name. They were Bennett and Bruno. Li Huailin immediately looked at their stats.
Bennett Galen
Current Position: Military Department
Loyalty: 50
Commander: 93, Strength: 41, Intelligence: 92, Politics: 88, Charm: 84
Special Skill: Cavalry Training (Intermediate)
Cavalry Training (Intermediate): Cavalry Training Speed increased by 10%.
Recommended Positions: Internal Affairs Department, Finance Department, Military Department, Foreign Affairs
As expected of a general of the 3rd Legion. This Bennett was indeed extraordinary. His attributes were comparable to Maccon's and higher than any of his subordinates. It was a pity that his Loyalty was a little low, to the point where he could betray them at any time. It seemed that without Verden's orders, this guy wouldn't stay here.
Li Huailin nodded and looked at his son's stats.
Bruno Galen
Current Position: Military Department
Loyalty: 60
Commander: 61, Strength: 99, Intelligence: 32, Politics: 9, Charm: 41
Special Skill: Cavalry Training (Beginner)
Cavalry Training (Beginner): Cavalry Training Speed increased by 5%.
Recommended Position: Military Department
"F * ck!" His other stats were incomparable to his father's, but what's with his strength? 99? You're a little too awesome. I knew you could fight, but Li Huailin didn't expect you to be so good at fighting. You're so awesome.
"We must keep this guy. He's a real talent," Li Huailin said immediately. Li Huailin immediately said. Although his father was powerful, Li Huailin didn't lack people like him. The simplest example was Maccon, who could completely replace him. However, this madman who was invincible in one-on-one fights had to be kept, because none of his subordinates could fight him.
"Legg, in a few days, a large number of people will report to us. They're all from the Military Department, helping to train the army," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, my lord." Legg nodded.
"Pay attention, this group of people, arrange for me to live together … Just this group of people, separate from our other matters, understand? Don't let them notice this, "Li Huailin said.
"Hmm? Oh, yes, my lord. " Although he didn't know what Li Huailin meant, Legg still nodded and obeyed the order.
