Two Hundred and Twenty-Six. Cleaning the Nobles
For the family members of the Reinhardt work club, the Six Forms can greatly improve the fighting strength of family members, especially Blatter, who has already eaten the Devil Fruit of the ancient animal species. Putting it on the agenda will be very beneficial for the overall strength improvement in the future.
This is also the reason why Reinhardt has been coveting the Sixth Form, but he has never had a good chance to get the Sixth Form into his hands. It is impossible for him to obtain the highest martial arts skills of the Navy from all over the world. For him, from The Naval Academy is the best chance.
The next day, Reinhardt had a meeting with Ulma, who was busy being promoted to brigadier general. Ulma naturally knew his intentions and did not refuse to borrow a naval warship.
On the one hand, Reinhardt's brewery brought him and the Kadan naval branch huge financial benefits every year. On the other hand, the opportunity to be promoted to brigadier general this time was entirely because of Reinhardt's secret assistance.
It's just a navy warship. This request is not outrageous. Besides, Ulma doesn't need to upset Reinhardt because of this kind of thing. After all, he hopes that the cooperation can continue smoothly.
"All the sea towers in the Kadan branch have been requisitioned by me, and I have found some for you from other branches, so that the bottom of the warship is filled." There are many ways to reach the East China Sea from the North Sea, but for now, Rhine The easiest thing for Hart to achieve is to use the sea towers loaded on the bottom of the naval warships to enter the Great Sea Route from the North Sea, cross the windless belt from the Great Sea Route, and directly enter the East China Sea.
It is even simpler to return to the voyage. From the East China Sea, it directly enters the Upside Down Mountain and enters the reverse flow leading to the North Sea. Because the naval warship is powered by wheels, as long as the power is sufficient, it can completely rush through the distance of the reverse flow.
Without waiting for Reinhardt to speak, Ulma continued: "But the warship can be used for you, but the navy can't lend it to you. You know, the navy in the Kadan branch itself is not that much, plus it has been with the sea for the past year. The thieves are fighting, and there are not many people left."
"This is no problem, I will solve the problem of manpower by myself." Reinhardt has no opinion on this point, "but I want to modify the warship a little, no problem?"
"The warship will be sent to you. When you come back, I have to purchase a few sailboats from your dock. You have to give me a discount." Ulma squinted and smiled. A huge sailboat was changed to Warships, Ulma can get half of the oil and water from the middle.
Reinhardt nodded. The shipyard was fully constructed last month, and a large sailboat was also successfully built, and many orders were received in the North Sea.
It was noon when he came back from the Kadan branch. He first went to the brewery to prepare the brewing recipe for the next six months. Then he visited the workshop, experimental base, farm and other places, and explained things one by one. After that, we returned to the King's Hall.
There were already many people standing in the King's Hall. After seeing Reinhardt come in, the ministers hurried over to pay their respects.
"Duke Reinhardt and I will leave the North Sea for a while. From now on, all affairs of the kingdom will be left to Bratt, Minister of Military Affairs." On the Iron Throne, Fiona glanced at the ministers with a grim look, and then spoke.
All the ministers were shocked, and then they all cast their eyes on Reinhardt next to the Iron Throne. Seeing that he had been silent, they all replied: "Yes, Your Majesty the King."
"Colin, report on the current financial situation of the kingdom." Fiona's delicate face was painted with light makeup, which looked amazing, especially with the Queen's noble temperament, it was even more beautiful.
Colin, the old fox, glanced at Reinhardt on the side, and was a little surprised. Why did the Queen on the stage suddenly ask about the kingdom's financial situation? She had never asked about these things before, and it was more than this that made him puzzled.
"Report to Your Majesty, allow me to go back to the study to get the account book." Colin's old body bowed before saying.
At this time, Reinhardt's closed eyes finally opened, and all the ministers were stunned. Today's Reinhardt... seems to be very different from usual. In his dark eyes, there is occasionally a light blue light. After a flash, everyone who knew him knew that as long as this happened, it would prove that Reinhardt was going to kill.
"Take the account book!" Reinhardt said softly, and then two guards came from outside the hall. Next to the guards was a man in a suit and leather shoes. He had a broken beard and short hair, and his face was calm and confident.
"See Your Majesty the King, Your Excellency the Duke." The man, led by the guards, bowed towards the stage.
Fiona didn't speak, and Reinhardt, who was next to him, said, "Sake, please announce the financial situation on the ledger."
"Yes, Lord Duke." Igarashi Sake nodded, and then took out countless ledgers from the box brought by the guards. After turning over them one by one, he began to publish the data.
"The taxation of the kingdom's finances in the past year..."
After reporting Sake's numbers one by one, Colin felt more and more flustered. As the finance minister of the current kingdom, he also knew these numbers very well, and he felt very normal. Although the deficit was very large, it was all because of Rhine Hart's administration reform, the deficit caused by the massive construction.
The reason for his panic is that today Reinhardt will not let Igarashi Sake announce this matter for no reason. He clearly knows that Igarashi Sake is the chief financial officer of the Reinhardt Brewery. Said that he had also served as the financial officer of a certain kingdom in the West Sea, so the purpose of letting him come is self-evident.
If he replaces himself, then with Reinhardt's character, he has absolutely no chance of life, but what can he do in the current situation?
He has already cleaned up a group of nobles of the kingdom, is he still worried? Are you planning to clean up your group of unsettled nobles before leaving Beihai?
"Mister... Duke." Before Sake had finished publishing all the figures, Colin couldn't help but fell to his knees, his voice extremely trembling.
"Lord Colin, what do you want to say?" Reinhardt asked softly. After listening to this sentence, Colin was completely discouraged and decadent, as if he had been sentenced to death. .
"Please spare my life, Lord Duke." After struggling for a long time, Colin finally said this sentence.
"Spare your life?" Reinhardt couldn't help sneering, "What crime did you commit?"
Colin was stunned for a moment, but another minister came out next to him. It was the minister of court affairs, Dennis, who was picked up by Reinhardt.
He walked to the front and bowed towards Reinhardt: "Lord Duke, according to the laws of the kingdom, Lord Colin has committed no less than eight crimes."
"Corruption and corruption, indiscriminate killing of civilians, insinuation of partisans, collusion with enemy countries, human trafficking, fornication with pirates, smuggling of arms, and deduction of military funds."
Just one of them can make Colin subdue the law, but some of the crimes are out of nothing, and some of the crimes are real, so Colin is not wronged, in other words, if all the nobles in the pirate world are taken Gather together and shoot him dozens of arrows casually, then among the dozens of arrows, there may be no unjust death.
