"In other words, we are short of money?"

Standing in place, Chen Heng looked at Alice in front of him and said so.

"Although there are some differences, you are right to say so."

Alice nodded respectfully, but her face gradually became a little serious: "if you don't stop the acquisition, our funds will soon be tight."

"There may be new problems."

She said so with a serious attitude.

Chen Heng was noncommittal and just said, "how much tax do we collect from the city every year?"

"About five thousand purple coins."

Alice thought for a moment and finally gave a positive answer.

In Chen Heng's territory, Alice not only takes care of Chen Heng's daily life, but also manages those private properties for him.

Chen Heng knows best how much territory there is and how much tax the territory can collect every year.

Of course, Chen Heng himself knows.

He looked at Alice, thought for a moment, and then continued, "I see."

"I'll find a way to solve this problem."

"For now, don't stop the acquisition."

He spoke softly and gave the following instructions.

Alice nodded.

After a while, she turned and left here, ready to go to other places.

Chen Heng is the only one left in such a big hall.

As for Charlie, he's already down to work.

As a bodyguard specially appointed by Chen Heng, he has a lot of things to do. He is not as busy as Alice.

Chen Heng got up from his place and was ready to go out.

Along the road, the ladies and bodyguards around saw Chen Heng salute respectfully.

The changes in Chen Heng did not seem to have had any impact.

This is the influence of mental power.

In order to prevent any change, Chen Heng applied a layer of protection to himself by using his spiritual force, and let the people around him automatically filter his appearance.

Even if Alice stood in front of him, although she could recognize who he was, there would be an inexplicable hazy feeling when she looked at him.

Chen Heng is still thinking about the problems he is facing at the moment.

It's OK to say the economic problem.

The so-called lack of money is actually a lack of resources.

It may be difficult for the indigenous people of the world, but it is good for them.

Let alone Chen Heng, even if Charlie goes out, it is estimated that he can come up with a bunch of ways to raise funds.

Selling potions, formulas, spells

These can be done, and they are profiteering.

Chen Heng has prepared to take out several pharmaceutical formulations and establish several simple production lines in his own city for production after a period of time.

The power of this world is strong, but it mainly relies on blood. As for other aspects, it can't be said that it doesn't exist at all, but it is also relatively simple.

The pharmaceutical formula summarized and learned by Chen Hengna from all over the world is an absolute scarce product for this world.

Coupled with his own prince's name, he can mobilize all kinds of resources in the official chamber of Commerce of the violet empire. It's not a big problem to start sales.

This problem is fairly easy to solve for the time being.

However, the problem in the king's parliament is a difficult problem.

Chen Heng has accepted the gift from the other party. Now he has eaten it in his stomach. It's impossible for him to vomit out again.

Do you want to complete the other party's requirements?

This is a problem.

For Chen Heng, whether to fulfill his promise is the second.

The key is not to let people get hold of themselves.

Otherwise it will be very troublesome.

Including the subsequent contact with the king's parliament, it is best to completely put aside contact with yourself and not let people doubt themselves.

"It seems that we must open a vest."

Chen Heng rubbed his eyebrows. At this time, the idea flashed in his heart.

In a few days.

Chen Heng turned into Kailin and came to that town again.

Compared with the previous time, this time did not go through so many steps.

As soon as Chen Henggang entered the town, someone noticed it.

A pale young man who looked not too old stood there, smiling at Chen Heng.

"Here you are, Mr. Kailin."

"You look like you've been waiting for me here for a long time?"

Looking at the boy in front, Chen Heng raised his head and showed some surprise on his face.

He knows each other.

Earlier, when Elena took him to the residence of the kings' Council, in addition to Pru, who shot at him, the young man was also one of them sitting around the campfire.

The name seems to be kana?

"Everyone who has entered the town will be recorded by us."

To Chen Heng's words, kana opened his mouth and explained, then changed the topic: "please follow me."

Chen Heng nodded and didn't say much. He just followed the boy in front of him and walked forward slowly.

Walking into the town in front of me, I was not surprised. The hazy feeling of being peeped by something reappeared again, like someone hiding in the dark and watching his every move there.

This is the border that envelops the town.

I think the record mentioned by kana also comes from this boundary.

When Chen Heng entered the town, the border caught Chen Heng's breath, so he immediately exposed it.

Chen Heng couldn't help thinking at the moment.

This time he entered the town, he didn't hide himself.

If he tries his best to hide, can the border detect him?

He was curious about it.

Walking into the town, pedestrians hurried around and walked everywhere.

It looks very prosperous everywhere, which seems to be inconsistent with the status of a remote town.

However, on the whole, it doesn't seem to be much different from the last time Chen Heng came.

The only thing that surprised Chen Heng was that the pedestrians around him were walking in a hurry, but no one seemed to notice them and ignored them directly.

It seems that the boundary has shielded their existence, and the people around them can't find their existence at all.

Walking to the front, Chen Heng stopped in front of a tavern and stopped for a moment.

In the tavern, a girl named Wendy is still busy taking care of her business.

The tavern owner had a pointed knife in his hand and cut the meat finely there.

A slight friction sounded.

It seemed that Chen Heng was there. The meat cutting boss paused, looked up at their direction, then returned to normal and went to cut the meat again.

As for Wendy, she felt nothing and was busy there alone.

"Let's go."

Ahead, kana smiled and said, "Elena is not here now. She is moving in another place."

"She can only come here at a specific time to complete the task given by the elder."

"Elder?"

Chen Heng regained his consciousness and keenly noticed the name.

"That's what we call the congressman."

Kana opened his mouth and said, "there are twenty-eight members of the king's assembly, and each member is called an elder."

"Our area belongs to this elder."

Chen Heng nodded, indicating that he was clear.

Then they walked on and slowly came to the center of the town.

Through an entrance, unconsciously, the world seems to have changed.

The original bustling town around disappeared and was replaced by an empty town.

The busy street was gone, and one of them could not be seen.

The open space is frightening.

This place, which Chen Heng entered last time, belongs to the different space of the town.

But last night, this time it was day.

In the middle of the town, a bonfire is still burning, with brilliance in it. After spreading out, it turns into an invisible ripple, enveloping the whole town.

Chen Heng paid attention.

Beyond the town, there is an invisible deep fog.

The fog completely shrouded the outside of the town. People couldn't see the scenery outside the town, but could barely see the town in front of them.

Chen Heng frowned.

Looking at the fog outside, he could feel that something existed in the fog, which brought him a faint sense of threat.

The feeling surprised him.

At his current level, he can feel the existence of a sense of threat

"What is there in the fog?"

Standing beside kana, Chen Heng looked at the fog outside and asked.

"Some relics and remains of the past, and maybe some god sin creatures."

For Chen Heng's question, kana shrugged and then said, "as for what's specific, I'm not very clear."

"After all, I'm not a congressman. I'm just a small role."

"What is God's sinful creature?"

Chen Heng continued to ask.

"Some creatures related to the gods."

Kana said, "blood can cause distortion, not only us, but also those powerful lives."

"In ancient legends, more than one God's parents and children once had distortion, so they directly became distorted and powerful monsters."

"These lives are collectively referred to as divine sin life in the mouth of ancient scholars."

"For this, there should be relevant records in the violet empire. You can go back and have a look."

"I will."

Chen Heng nodded. Although he was curious, he still took back his sight.

He had a hunch that there was a strong life in the fog, and I'm afraid there was more than one.

If you really rush out, I'm afraid no one in the world can stop it.

No, it seems not.

Chen Heng realized a problem.

What appears on the surface may not be all.

The strongest person on the surface of the world is only a king, which is equivalent to a seven level epic.

But in the dark, are there stronger people hiding?

There should be.

After all, this is a world with strong ancestors.

The parents and children of those ancestors, even their lineal blood, if they were still alive, I'm afraid they would still exist today, but they may hide in every corner invisible to ordinary people like these king councils.

The same is true of the three empires, many of which have some inside information.
