Chapter 834: As much as you can

"You really gave up your pension insurance voluntarily?" The tax officer looked at these burly orcs again and asked.

"We can't work in Ailan Hill all the time, so we voluntarily gave up pension insurance..." Famarus nodded, acknowledging his choice.

They are the orcs, the bravest warriors of the Beast King, so they don't need to lie, their honesty is their greatest glory.

"Then I don't have any questions." Tax officer Louis nodded, and then sat in his seat, supervising the payment of wages on the spot.

Two banknotes with a denomination of 50 gold coins were thus placed in the thick and thick palm of an orc, which looked a little thin.

One hundred gold coins a month seems to be quite a lot, but you must know that this kind of work in mining is very dangerous. The Ailan Hill Empire stipulates that the minimum wage for mining workers is 100 gold coins per month.

In more remote areas, there may be illegal mines employing workers below this wage standard, but that is illegal and cannot appear in a regular mine.

Nowadays, in the Higgs area, the wages of many mines have reached the terrible level of 700 gold a month, which is the real high salary.

"Take your salary! Boy! There are everything you want in the nearby city! Everything has its own price, isn't it?" Tucked two 100 gold banknotes into Famarus' palm. The human nobleman said with a smile.

This strong orc is the leader of these orcs, and he really works very hard, so he should get more gold coins, this is the reward he deserves.

The cocoon in Famarus' palm, which was worn out by holding the long sword all the year round, looked so ugly, but the gold coin printed with the side face of the Emperor Elanhill and the eagle emblem blocked everything.

Red banknotes are much more beautiful than red blood. Even sometimes, gold coins are covered with blood-red liquid.

"Why give me twice the salary?" Famarus squeezed the paper money in his palm and asked in a simple and honest voice.

"This is what you deserve." The noble businessman said casually. This is the last salary he will pay today. The orcs here can get up to 200 gold coins and at least 100 gold coins. Everyone will be very happy. Happy.

In just one month, the mine had to pay more than 300,000 gold coins for the miners, which was hundreds to thousands of times higher than the previous annual tax of 1,000 gold coins in Serris.

The city of Serris almost couldn't pay the "annual fee" that year. Today's Ailan Hill, whether or not a banknote with a denomination of 1,000 gold coins should be issued has been put on the agenda for discussion.

Famarus took the money and walked out of the room, seeing the orcs with the same smiles on their faces, and felt that the weather was not so cold anymore.

He felt the sun shining on his back, and a warmth flowed all over his body. He felt that he was standing in the sun and his whole person was more powerful.

This is a kind of power called respect, not because he is strong or because he is fierce, but because he has paid his own labor and deserves sufficient materials in return.

It's just that he didn't know. In fact, he was still a little bit tricked. If he insisted on insisting then, he could have made his own people and his own salary more.

The current Ailan Hill needs manpower everywhere, and there are jobs waiting for people to come to work everywhere.

…

On the flagship of the Sky Fleet with the Royal Banner of the Ailan Hill Empire, a staff officer is reporting to the Emperor himself the information he has just gathered: "According to the spy and satellite reconnaissance reports... the forces of the Eternal Empire are frequently mobilizing. "

"The opponent's three best-equipped divisions are gathering in the capital, and the magicians are also urgently gathering." He said while sketching out the opponent's route on the electronic map.

"Obviously, they are preparing for the battle, and the target is us." Ironforge Grand Duke Su Molai snorted, urn said angrily.

He is not too big of a problem. If the war breaks out, he can once again show the strength of the dwarf and his loyalty to Ailan Hill.

"Although they are gathering forces, they are doing very well. They tried hard to avoid our misjudgment and are very sophisticated." A staff officer glanced at Su Molai and continued to say to Chris.

"Yes, their troops are retreating. It is not so much assembling forces for a decisive battle, for example, retreating and avoiding battle." Another staff officer nodded and introduced their speculation.

According to the inference of the General Staff, the Eternal Empire does not really want to go to war right now. Therefore, when the staff member introduced, he said very firmly: "They are trying hard to send us a message: We are defending ourselves, not really going to war."

"While proposing to negotiate with us, while actively gathering troops to put pressure on us...a veteran of politics." Seeing that Chris was interested, he added two more sentences: "Probably not the emperor of the eternal empire. In dispatching troops and generals, they want us to know that if we rush to war, we may have to pay a certain price to win the war."

"What price do I have to pay for a 100,000-level battle?" Chris smiled and asked a very practical question.

"Puff...haha." A staff officer couldn't help it, and almost spit out the hot tea he had just drunk. He wiped his mouth before he continued to laugh.

For the military headquarters of the Ailan Hill Empire, the cost of a battle of 100,000 or 200,000 people is really negligible.

Even with the sky fleet hovering in the sky of the eternal empire, the staff of the Alanhill Empire are confident of winning this war against the eternal empire.

In their opinion, as long as their cannons fired at Karan Meeks for an hour, the opponent would hang a white flag and surrender.

"However, it’s okay to talk to them, so we might save a lot of effort." Chris weighed it up, glanced at Andrea and said, “I’m not going in person, Grand Duke Andrea, you On my behalf, lead a delegation of Ailan Hill to see what friends in the Eternal Empire have any plans."

Chris is not a fool, so he won't give the opponent the chance to jump the wall in a hurry. Often doing dangerous things, it is either a lunatic or a fool.

"Negotiating?" Andrea glanced at Chris, then nodded and asked: "I'm fine... What is the bottom line of the empire?"

"As much as you can get, as much as you want!" Without even thinking about it, Chris replied directly—

There is one more update, everyone can watch it tomorrow morning.
