    This idea made Ivan a little worried, but the magic crystal's magic power was limited in the call time, so he did not waste time on random thoughts, and quickly gathered his thoughts and contacted Emma.  "Oh hehehe, what did you sayIt's so annoying, I'm ignoring you" Intermittent and vague female laughter came from the scroll. If you distinguish it carefully, you can still hear the noise of the clinking of cups and bowls.  Background sound.  "Emma?" Alvin asked doubtfully.  The female voice on the scroll disappeared immediately. After more than ten seconds, the noisy background sound also fell silent. Then a hesitant question came from one end of the scroll: "Is it Brother Aiwen?" "It's me, what did you just say?"  Is it in the tavern?" Ivan asked suddenly.  "Yes, I was accompanying a guest just now. Where are you? Have you arrived at the Demon Castle? It turns out that the mission scroll also has this kind of communication method?" After confirming Ivan's identity, Emma's voice suddenly became much more relaxed.  Being in a place like a tavern where it is easy to collect information, you still haven¡¯t figured out the full purpose of the mission scroll. I guess you have been paying attention to other people¡¯s gossip these days!  Ivan cursed in his heart, but explained a little: "I am still in the Lion Heart Valley. Using magic crystal, I can use the mission scroll for long-distance communication, but believe me, the price is too high, you  I don¡¯t want to use this kind of communication method!¡± ¡°It turns out that magic crystals are needed. Well, I don¡¯t think a little girl like me can use this kind of communication method, so Ivan, a rich man, can use this kind of luxury.  You came to me in this way, don't you want to show off that you now have money that you can squander casually?" Emma was silent for a few seconds, and then said angrily.  "How could I have such an idea?" Ai Wen was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.  He said seriously: "Don't you know me? I am also a poor man. I would use this method to find you, of course because I have something urgent!" "Okay, you are already the lord of a territory, and you are still crying in front of me.  "No matter how poor you are, you are richer than me. Forget it, don't you have something urgent?" Emma said.  "Okay, how much funds can be mobilized at the Demon Castle now?" Ivan wiped his sweat and asked.  The other side of the scroll waited for a few seconds before speaking again: "About 30,000 gold coins." "Why are there only 30,000 gold coins?" Ivan was stunned.  According to his calculations.  With so many taverns alone, in one month, the net income can be more than 100,000 gold coins. Thirty thousand gold coins is a big difference from the expected amount.  On the other side of the scroll, Emma was not polite. She directly took out the account book and calculated the economic accounts for Alvin: "Brother Alvin, you want to know why there are only 30,000 gold coins left. I will calculate it for you one by one.  "Forget it!" "I won't talk about the bits and pieces of expenses, so as not to waste your time and mine. In addition, there are three major expenses. The first one is to purchase various items that are urgently needed for the territory.  Supplies - the prices of all these supplies are rising now. During this period, the demand for Lionhearts is getting bigger and bigger, with more and more varieties, and the need is getting more and more urgent. It would take a lot of money just to find out about those rare supplies.  It¡¯s a small amount of money, let alone actually buy it.¡± Thinking of the materials consumed to build the castrated version of the mage tower, Aiwen nodded silently.  "The second cost is to bribe those insiders, and at the same time release all kinds of false news to hide the information about the Lion Heart Valley - Brother Ivan, in the past month, do you feel that the territory has been developing smoothly?  There are no new demon lords to open up territory around you, and the price of your stability is the gold coins you spend here!" "Well done, you are really my sister!" Ivan couldn't help but praise.  "What did you say?" Emma didn't hear clearly.  "It's nothing, just keep talking, time is money!" Ivan urged.  "The third payment is the military merit you exchanged for yourself - to collect the 10,000 military merit of the viscounty, the various seizures you sent are not enough. This is also a large expense. Now there are only 30,000 gold coins left.  , thanks to the batch of replacement parts you sent over, the price of ordnance has increased recently. After repairing the broken crossbow I bought, I sold it for a good price! " "Okay, I understand, it has been really bad lately!  Thank you for your hard work!" After listing these three expenses, Alvin also felt that it was a miracle that Emma had 30,000 gold coins left in her hand, and comforted her.  "Humph!" "Forget it, 30,000 gold coins are just 30,000 gold coins. I need a large number of troops now. You can use this money to recruit more soldiers and send them over. Is that okay?" Ivan asked.  "It's not a big problem, but are you ready to expand your territory?""" Emma asked doubtfully. "Almost, now I have an excellent opportunity, but the time left for me is very limited. It would be a pity not to seize it!"  "Ai Wen said vaguely. "It's good to be able to expand territory. At least I don't have to keep giving false news here. The money spent is second, and the energy consumed is too much!  "Emma complained for a while and then asked with some worry: "It's enough to exchange for the military merits of the viscounty. But what are you going to do with the remaining 400,000 gold coins?  "Uh" Ai Wen had sweat pouring from his head and said with force: "You don't need to worry about this matter. Let's talk about how many people we can recruit first!"  " Emma said 'Oh', and after a little calculation, she said: "If they are all second-level warriors, including settlement fees, I can recruit 200 people for you. If they are first-level warriors, including settlement fees,  I can recruit five hundred people for you!  " "Then let's take five hundred people from the first level!  "Ai Wen made a decision decisively, but after he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of a possibility and asked quickly: "Wait a minute¡ª¡ªlistening to your tone, can there still be unqualified warriors recruited in Demon God's Castle?  " "Of course it's impossible!  "Emma dismissed Alvin's idea. "Then" "There are no unqualified mercenaries, but there have been too many reinforcements arriving at Demon God's Castle recently, and many first-level soldiers are coming to Demon God's Castle.  On the way to the castle, they were seriously injured or became disabled. The military of the Demon Castle refused to hire them. They had no other way out, so they started working as mercenaries. However, their strength was worse than ordinary first-level mercenaries.  It's hard to find work.  "Emma continued. "How many people are there and how much does it cost to hire them?  "Ai Wen's eyes lit up, but he never mentioned the word recruitment. "Since the Demon Castle military has rejected this batch of soldiers, it can basically be concluded that the vast majority of them will not be able to recover and have no potential to continue to improve.  , instead of recruiting them into the army, it would be more cost-effective to hire them directly. Even if there is no way to pull them out to fight, at least they can transform into the first batch of citizens of the territory. Now that they are running into obstacles, these weak warriors.  Soldiers have no higher ideal than having enough food. Most of the territories on Gray Plains have been managed by several or dozens of generations of lords. The lords do not have to consider the problem of lack of citizens, but Aiwen has to do it as soon as possible.  Planning. ¡°There are still two to three thousand people. Their strength is so low, so we don¡¯t need to pay too much in hiring fees. As long as we can keep them fed, the weekly cost is about one gold coin!  "Emma explained. "Sure enough, what grade of mercenary is what? I want them all. If there are such cheap mercenaries in the future, I must get them all to Lionheart!  "Ai Wen said quickly. "Get rid of the Lion Heart Collar?  That waste?  Oh, I think I see what you mean!  "Emma said with sudden realization. "Well, if you want to do this, then I can probably get you four hundred first-level warriors, and about two thousand disabled mercenaries. Judging from the numbers alone, it's quite good.  It's quite scary" After Emma finished the calculation, she gasped. "I think their combat effectiveness will also be frighteningly low. Forget it, I'm not going to use them as the main force in the battle anyway" Ivan  He muttered in a low voice. "If you decide, then that's it. I will try not to attract other people's attention and dispatch them to the Lion Heart Territory in batches. Within ten days, most of the 2,400 people will arrive. This shouldn't happen.  Is it too late?  Emma asked. "Okay!"  "Ivan responded simply. He hesitated for a moment, and while the magic power in the magic crystal could still sustain a call for a few minutes, he quickly asked: "Emma, ??have you heard about Vivian, the captain of the Succubus Queen's guard?  No?  " "Vivian?  Are you talking about the beautiful and powerful sixth-level succubus Vivian?  "When Emma heard this name, she could no longer keep calm and shouted incoherently: "Of course I know her, she is my idol. I heard that she recently broke through a defense with only dozens of subordinates.  This stern human city is so¡ªawesome!  " "Yes, she is right" "Hey, brother Aiwen, why are you asking her? Do you want to pursue her?  " Before Ivan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Emma. "Well, the reason why I care about her is very complicated, and I can't explain it to you in a short time. You just need to tell me her information.  Problem?  "Ai Wen rubbed his head and said. "Are you really going to pursue her? I will definitely support you in this matter. Moreover, if you ask me for help, you are looking for someone. In the entire Demon God's Castle, in terms of understanding of Lord Vivian  , except for those old monsters who hide in the world, I can be said to be standing at the top of everyone!  "Emma said with an eager tone.  Alvin didn¡¯t find it strange at all what Emma said. The Dakou Drinking Chain Tavern he founded originally paid attention to collecting all aspects of intelligence. As the person in charge of the Da Kou Drinking Chain Tavern, Emma deliberately collected a lot of information about Wei  Vianne's information is not surprising.  However, Alvin began to wonder if it was time for him to check the account books. Those gold coins were really spent on serious things, and they wouldn't be diverted by some idiot fan to collect idol information, right?  ¡­¡­¡­ This book is streaking this week, and I am asking for more recommendations. I hope it will be on the list (to be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
