Eric is staring at the document in hand, deeply frowns.( 艾瑞克盯着手中的文件,眉头紧锁。( Good after long time, he long sighs, puts down the document, closes the eye, pinched the bridge of the nose with the hand, was relaxed by oneself slightly. 好半晌后,他才长长叹了一口气,放下文件,闭上眼睛,用手捏了捏鼻梁,让自己稍微放松了一些。 Had reviewed the entire afternoon document continually, the middle besides on a restroom, he had no time of rest, naturally feels very exhaustedly. 已经持续批阅了整整一个下午的文件,中间除了上了一次厕所外,他没有任何休息的时间,自然是觉得十分疲惫。 Looked on a table still to pile up one on top of another old tall document, Eric can't help it smiles bitterly. 看了一眼桌上依然堆叠得老高的文件,艾瑞克禁不住苦笑起来。 Before mounting the throne, he has been fantasizing, if oneself really become the king in this kingdom, that certainly is how satisfying and joyful matter. 在没有登上王位之前,他一直幻想着,如果自己真的成为了这个王国的国王,那一定是多么让人满足而愉悦的事情。 But when he mounted this throne truly, actually only then just started happily on several days, later this is close six months, actually by the annoying work winding, cannot have least bit to be idle. 可是等到他真正登上了这个王位,却只有刚开始那几天高兴了一下,之后这接近半年的时间内,却一直都被烦人的工作缠绕,根本不能有半点儿空闲。 The extremely before busy intense life lets he cannot help but fondly remembers frequently, be a prince time. 太过忙碌紧张的生活让他不由自主地经常怀念起以前还是一名王子的时候。 At that time, he does not need to consider that so many at sixes and sevens national affairs, want to eat eat, wants to rest rests, how wants to play how to play. 那个时候,他不需要考虑这么多乱七八糟的国事,想吃就吃,想睡就睡,想怎么玩就怎么玩。 But after to become king, because is extremely busy, he not only cannot have a good sleep, eats meal continually is the time of every day hardly pushing, is not free. 可是在成为国王后,因为太过忙碌,他不仅睡不好,更是连吃饭都是每天硬挤出来的时间,一点儿也不自由。 As for playing? Has a dream continually he is reviewing the official documents! 至于玩？连做梦的时候他都在批阅公文！ Before in seeing the Royal Father reviewed the official documents the busy appearance, he has not cared, when he did this matter, thoroughly understands, was a king, was really not the comfortable matter. 之前在看到父王批阅公文的忙碌模样时,他还不怎么在意,可是等到他自己来做这件事时,就彻底明白,担任一名国王,真的不是什么舒服的事。 Actually he is very clear, reason that oneself are always tired, is completely because has not been satisfied. 其实他很清楚,自己之所以总觉得累,完全是因为没有得到满足。 Why wants to become the king? Naturally is because the king has this kingdom you biggest power. 为什么想要成为国王？当然是因为国王拥有这个王国你最大的权力。 But after he becomes the king . Actually discovered oneself have no control to this kingdom. 可是他成为国王后。却发现自己对这个王国根本没有任何掌控力。 Words below order that said. No one will care. When what significance that this king and does have? 无论是说的话还是下的命令。都没有什么人会在意。那这个国王当得又有什么意义呢？ „Sincere-” “笃笃-” The door was sounded suddenly, but also without and other Eric opened the mouth, had been shoved open, an exceptionally familiar form walked. 房门突然被敲响,还没等艾瑞克开口,就已经被人推开,一个异常熟悉的身影走了进来。 Looks that this is stepping the exceptionally calm step forever, every step as if with ruler precision measuring the middle-aged man arrived at the front slowly, Eric squeezed a smiling face reluctantly. 看着这个永远都迈着异常沉稳步伐,每一步仿佛都是用尺子精确测量出来的中年男人缓缓走到面前,艾瑞克勉强挤出了一丝笑容。 „Does Duke Stark, have the matter?” “斯塔克公爵,有事情吗？” Count Stark bends the waist slightly, is salutes to Eric. 斯塔克伯爵微微弯了弯腰,算是对艾瑞克施了一礼。 „Your majesty. Now disturbs you, three days later must the military headquarters budget conference come.” “陛下。现在来打扰你,是为了三天后就要召开的军部预算会议而来。” Count Stark is calm, no fluctuation, then hears in Eric ear, makes in his heart jump fiercely. 斯塔克伯爵语气平静,没有一丝波动,然后听到艾瑞克耳朵里,却让他心中猛地一跳。 Silent after long time, Eric asked: „Does Duke Stark, what opinion have to raise about this you?” 沉默半晌后,艾瑞克才问道:“斯塔克公爵,关于这个你有什么意见要提吗？” „Yes.” Duke Stark nods. „I heard that your majesty intends to enhance the budget of military headquarters this year, particularly enhances the budget of Northern Guard Regiment, right?” “是的。”斯塔克公爵点点头。“我听说陛下有意在今年提高军部的预算,尤其是提高镇北军的预算,是吗？” A Eric brow wrinkle, thought oneself disclosed a rumor slightly. This Duke Stark found the gate, does not give itself seriously any space. 艾瑞克眉头一皱,心想自己只是稍微透露了一下口风。这个斯塔克公爵就找到门来,当真是不给自己任何一点儿空间啊。 However his is only also thinking at heart. In the surface still maintains the smile saying: „Un, I have this plan. According to the information, Sakk Kingdom seems to be ready to make trouble. In order to prevent the infringement of Sakk Kingdom, appropriately enhances the budget of military headquarters necessary. Moreover, the financial revenue of kingdom is if as expected good this year, increases some budget should not be a problem.” 不过他这也只是在心里想想。表面上依然保持微笑道:“嗯,我是有这个打算。根据情报,萨克王国似乎又在蠢蠢欲动了。为了防止萨克王国的侵犯,适当提高军部的预算也是有必要的。而且不出意外的话,今年王国的财政收入还算不错,增加一些预算应该不成问题。” Count Stark slightly hesitates, asked: „Has your majesty, you thought a very important issue?” 斯塔克伯爵略一沉吟,又问道:“陛下,那你有没有想过一个很重要的问题呢？” „What issue?” “什么问题？” „Next year one beginning of the year, you loans of many aristocrat to the kingdom must expire. If there is not come out when the time comes this debt, perhaps you will lose many important supporters.” “明年一开年,您向王国内很多贵族的借款就要到期了。如果到时候还不出来这笔欠款的话,恐怕您就会失去很多重要的支持者。” „Debt?” Eric deeply frowns. “欠款？”艾瑞克深深皱起了眉头。 This so-called debt, is actually in the kingdom these supports his aristocrat to mount various investments before throne in him. 这个所谓的欠款,其实就是王国内那些支持他的贵族在他登上王位之前的各种投入。 But that fellows were called the donation this before, but after waiting for him to mount the throne, actually calculates that immediately these donations borrowing money, and requested Eric to repay this debt. 只不过之前那帮家伙把这叫做捐赠,而等他登上王位之后,却把这些捐赠立即又算成了借债,并要求艾瑞克偿还这笔欠款。 That ten chambers of commerce that the Magic industrial management bureau assigns, the back is standing is actually these fellows. 魔法工业管理署指定的那十家商会,背后站着的其实就是这些家伙。 Eric has looked Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce is not pleasing to the eyes, in the name of this, not only renovated Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce, but can also treat as to arrive by this trades the debt, to him really kills two birds with one stone. 艾瑞克本来就一直看新飞商会不顺眼,借着这个名义,不仅整治了新飞商会,还可以以这个来当做抵换欠款,对于他来说实在是一举两得。 Moreover enables these technologies not only to grasp in the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce hand, is good to the entire kingdom. 而且让那些技术不只掌握在新飞商会手中,对整个王国也是十分有好处的。 Therefore Eric has been tolerating various Magic industrial management bureau types in view of the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce petty action, the main purpose, actually to rob was the Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce income. 所以艾瑞克一直都在纵容魔法工业管理署各种针对新飞商会的小动作,主要目的,其实就是为了抢走原本属于新飞商会的收益。 But now the date and time is still after all short, in addition that ten chambers of commerce were still well below Fresh Flight Chamber of Commerce regarding the influence of market, therefore could not have too many incomes from this for a short time, debt that these aristocrats said that was still a Eric unusual headache matter. 只不过现在时日毕竟尚短,再加上那十家商会对于市场的影响仍然远远不及新飞商会,所以一时半会儿之间从这里面也产生不了太多收益,那些贵族们所说的欠款,依然是艾瑞克非常头疼的一件事情。 „But if allocates funds to repay the debt from the kingdom, next year various kingdom aspects will be very intense.” Helpless Eric quite said/tunnel. “可是如果从王国里拨款偿还欠款的话,明年王国各方面都将会十分紧张。”艾瑞克颇为无奈地道。 Since has mounted the throne in the half year, Eric discovered oneself compare to a king, looks like a merchant on the contrary. 登上王位这半年以来,艾瑞克发现自己比起一个国王,反倒是更像一个商人。 Because of every day, almost always, he is worrying for money, even in worries before the small number of gold coin gold coin him completely not caring. 因为每天,几乎无时无刻,他都在为钱发愁,甚至在为一个金币一个金币这种他以前完全不会放在心上的小数目发愁。 Became the king truly, he clear present Lanpali Kingdom is facing how embarrassed situation. 只有真正成为国王了,他才明白现在的兰帕里王国是面临着多么窘迫的情况。 Although the Lanpali Kingdom overall financial revenue has been in the continued and massive growth in the two years, but according to the statistics estimated, perhaps this year the financial revenue of whole year will not break through 3 million gold coins. 虽然这两年兰帕里王国的整体财政收入一直都处于持续、大量增长中,但是按照统计预估,今年全年的财政收入恐怕也不会突破三百万金币。 If places in a city to be considerable these money, but places the nation, that feels sorry to the extreme simply. 如果把这些钱放在一个城市里还算可观,但放在全国的话,那简直就是可怜到极点。 If nothing else, solely only calculates the military expenses. 别的不说,单单只算军费。 Before Eric when commands Northern Guard Regiment and Sakk Kingdom combat financial statistics calculates, every day average expenditure in 50,000 to 70,000 gold coins. 以艾瑞克之前统领镇北军和萨克王国作战时的财务统计来算,每天平均的花费都在五万到七万金币之间。 Continued less than probably for a month with the Sakk Kingdom war, has spent enough over 1 million gold coins. 和萨克王国的战争持续了大概不到一个月,就已经花去了足足超过一百万金币。 But these fights are not intense. If really launches all -out war. The military expenses consumption only feared that must turn time to continue. 而这些战斗还都是不怎么激烈的。如果真是发动全面战争的话。军费消耗只怕要翻倍都不止。 Naturally. At that time to create the momentum to Eric, in the kingdom supported his aristocrats massive investments in Northern Guard Regiment, was much higher compared with the military expenses of former Northern Guard Regiment consumption. 当然了。当时为了给艾瑞克创造声势,王国内支持他的贵族们在镇北军中大量投入,远比之前镇北军消耗的军费高出很多。 However even deferred to before the Northern Guard Regiment military expenses consumption standard, one year in antiwar still guaranteed 100,000 gold coin above military expenses at least. 但是就算按照以前镇北军的军费消耗标准,在非战时一年也得起码保证十万金币以上的军费。 In addition in the kingdom other armies, military headquarters beforehand the military budgets of every year 300,000 gold coins, are beset with problems radically. 再加上王国内其它各支军队,军部之前每年三十万金币的军费预算,根本就是捉襟见肘。 Eric went to the battlefield personally, has experienced aggressive of Sakk Kingdom these soldiers with own eyes, naturally understands that must enhance the Northern Guard Regiment strength. Can assure the Lanpali Kingdom security. 艾瑞克亲自上过战场,亲眼见识过萨克王国那些士兵们的凶悍,自然明白一定要提升镇北军的实力。才能保证兰帕里王国的安全。 But the issue lies in...... money. 可是问题就在于……钱。 The kingdom whole year financial revenue defers to 3 million gold coins to calculate, regardless basic administrative expense 1 million gold coins, in addition various types in view of the preferential subsidy of aristocrat, must spend to be close to 1 million gold coins. 王国全年财政收入就按照三百万金币来算,抛开基本行政开支一百万金币,再加上各种针对贵族的优惠补贴,又要花费接近一百万金币。 The words of remaining 1 million gold coins, definitely must put out part of infrastructures that is used to construct the kingdom. 剩下一百万金币的话,必然还要拿出一部分用来修建王国的基础设施。 For example couple days ago the agriculture bureau proposal must in several farmland before the kingdom conduct similar Bunta City has made the reorganization, it is expected that the preliminary expenditure is 200,000 gold coins. 比如前几天农业署提案要对王国内几处的农田进行类似邦塔城之前弄过的整改,预计初步花费为二十万金币。 Is counted other at sixes and sevens things again, could not have been left over several gold coins. 再把其它乱七八糟的东西算上,就已经剩不下几枚金币。 To squeeze out the military expenses of lowest 500,000 gold coin Eric thinks, is easier said than done. 想要在从中挤出艾瑞克认为的最低五十万金币的军费,又谈何容易。 „Your majesty, I understands your anxiety.” Sees the feeling embarrassed look on Eric face, the Duke Stark smile said: „First the military force of guarantee kingdom. This is certainly necessary. However don't you actually need deliberately to increase the military budget to enhance the military force not?” “陛下,我明白你的忧虑。”看到艾瑞克脸上的为难神色,斯塔克公爵微笑道:“优先保证王国的军力。这当然是必要的。但是你其实并不需要刻意增加军费预算来提升军力不是吗？” Eric stares: „Does not enhance the military expenses, how can the army strength enhance? I have treated in Northern Guard Regiment. I am very clear. Without the words of money, the soldiers cannot even eat to the full the food, how also possibly to have what battle efficiency?” 艾瑞克一愣:“不提高军费,军队实力怎么能提高？我可是在镇北军里待过的。我很明白。没钱的话,士兵们甚至连饭都吃不饱,又怎么可能有什么战斗力？” „Like this said yes right. However your majesty, you have thought that the military expenses of kingdom are limited, and is very difficult to promote. Then supports massive armies with it with the limited military expenses, causing these army in fact battle efficiencies unable to obtain to safeguard, might as well simplifies the army quantity, takes the crack troops route, instead is easier to enhance the battle efficiency.” Duke Stark said. “这样说是没错。但是陛下,你有没有想过,王国的军费是有限的,并且很难提升。那么与其用有限的军费来支持大量的军队,导致这些军队实际上战斗力根本得不到保障,还不如精简军队数量,走精兵路线,反而更容易提升战斗力。”斯塔克公爵道。 „Simplifies the army?” Eric brow big wrinkle. „Duke Stark, in our kingdom altogether less than 50,000 in the army of arranging, such quantity was only the defensive entire kingdom has also had enough to do at present truly, if reduced again, the kingdom everywhere was the loophole? Even if can defend Sakk Kingdom, other aspects what to do?” “精简军队？”艾瑞克眉头大皱。“斯塔克公爵,我们王国内目前真正在编的军队总共还不到五万,这样的数量光是防守整个王国就已经很吃力了,要是再减少的话,王国岂不是到处都是漏洞？就算能够防得住萨克王国,其它方面怎么办？” „This is very simple.” Duke Stark obviously is prepared very much early, the smile continues said: „kingdom * the team is only responsible for the main defense goal, as for the secondary defense duty, the aristocrats like me naturally also has the duty that assists to defend.” “这很简单。”斯塔克公爵很明显早有准备,微笑续道:“王**队只负责主要的防卫目标,至于次要的防卫任务,像我这样的贵族们自然也拥有协助防卫的义务。” Eric was startled being startled: „What do you mean?” 艾瑞克怔了怔:“你这是什么意思？” „Gives an example on the northwest province of by Northern Guard Regiment main guarding. At present Northern Guard Regiment to guard against the invasion of Sakk Kingdom, not only guarded the northern border of entire kingdom, but also the large army under the northwest province arrange/cloth, does not need in my opinion completely. The northwest province currently has the grand total seven stretches of aristocrat private territories, then these seven aristocratic family have the responsibility of defense territory, can definitely make them assist to share the defense duty.” “就以镇北军主要驻守的西北行省来举例。目前镇北军为了防备萨克王国的入侵,不仅驻守了整个王国的北方边境,还在西北行省布下重兵,在我看来完全没有必要。西北行省目前有总计七片贵族私人领地,那么这七个贵族家庭都拥有防卫领地的责任,完全可以把防卫任务让他们协助分担一些。” Eric shakes the head: „That how line. This is kingdom * the responsibility of team, the aristocrat private guard is only responsible for defending own private territory, how during can involve the kingdom territory to defend.” 艾瑞克摇了摇头:“那怎么行。这是王**队的职责,贵族私人卫队只负责保卫自己的私人领地,怎么能牵扯到王国领土防卫之中。” „Your majesty, you led Northern Guard Regiment counter-attacks Sakk Kingdom the time initially, may also gets the help of private guard many aristocrats have sent out. Why now don't you allow them to perform your responsibility?” Sees Eric also in hesitant, Duke Stark added one. „, All expenditures of these aristocrat private guards are the most important thing is solved by aristocrats, the kingdom finance does not undertake. Under this can't save many military spending?” “陛下,当初你率领镇北军反攻萨克王国的时候,可也是获得过很多贵族们派出的私人卫队的帮助。现在你又为什么不允许他们尽自己的一份责任呢？”见艾瑞克还在犹豫,斯塔克公爵加了一句。“最重要的是,这些贵族私人卫队的一切开支都由贵族们自己解决,王国财政并不承担。这样不就能节省下很多军费开支了吗？” Eric is frowning, is lost in thought. 艾瑞克皱着眉头,陷入沉思。 Good after long time, his right hand unconsciousness patted the racket on the table, said gently: „This...... as if is also means......”( please search the floating astronomy to be continued, the novel is better to renew is quicker! 好半晌后,他右手无意识地在桌子上拍了拍,轻轻道:“这样……似乎也是一种办法……”(未完待续请搜索飄天文學,小说更好更新更快!
