After the Full Level of the Profession
Chapter 522: I want to see him
In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun filled the palace of the Bright Road.
The queen is counting money!
Of course, it was not that she counted by herself, but the five clerks were counting together.
There were several linen pockets piled up in front of her, filled with silver coins. The five clerks had been counting for two hours, and it was far too early to finish counting.
Grand Duke Madeleine stood beside him with a smile of joy: "Elizabeth, I didn’t expect the movie to be so profitable. After only a few days of release, I made so many silver coins back. If we put it on for a month or two, our military expenditures will fall. I heard that there is a second and a third. If the latter two can make money like the first, the royal family won’t be short of money to spend."
There was a weird expression on the queen's face: "This thing is more than a football game, which is far beyond my expectation. I didn't expect that the money made by doing such a mess would actually be enough to support one. The military expenditure of the army is too exaggerated."
In Her Majesty’s perception, the cost of the army is very large. At least the agricultural taxes of dozens of towns and even the entire country are enough to support the army’s expenditure. In fact, all countries are like this. Large-scale wars always occur after the food is harvested.
I don't know, Robb made such a broken movie, just let it go, and the money he earned was enough to get rid of the usual agricultural taxes, enough to support the army's expenses.
The queen felt that she was sap slammed by money, and her worldview and values deviated a bit from the norm.
She couldn't help thinking: Does the way of using agricultural taxes to support the country's economy need to be changed?
Madeleine’s voice awakened her from her contemplation: "Your Majesty, I saw what the clerk was recording the ‘box office’, what did this thing do when it was recorded?"
The queen laughed nonchalantly: "This ghost man asked for statistics. He said that the movie was made by him. He is eligible to divide the money earned from playing this movie, so I need to count the box office income and share it with him. ."
Madeleine said: "Oh, if we deliberately reduce the statistics, he doesn't know."
The queen spread his hands: "Yes, in theory it is true. But I am a country queen, how can I play a small trick in this kind of thing, and give him as much as he should, not for a little money, to destroy the king's family reputation."
Madeleine nodded.
The queen saw that the clerks were sweating profusely when counting the money, and she couldn't help but sighed faintly: "That ghost man, in terms of making money from funny things, is really convincing. Such a large sum of money. , Even if I want to give him a part, it still exceeds my imagination. The point is that I did almost nothing, so I picked up so much money..."
Madeleine was not interested in listening to her girlfriends talking about her ghost man. She was more concerned about the other person. She couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Elizabeth, you...you often call that ghost man, so do you listen to it? Any news about Robert Smith?"
Queen: "Oh? You are talking about the orphan of the Smith family... I heard that he made the Rough Stone Canyon beautiful under the guidance of a ghost man a few days ago. It seems to be a good weekend for the people of Westwind. Where to go, that small town with a population of only a few hundred is now actually beautiful and picturesque."
Madeleine immediately became happy: "Really? That's great! That's the territory you gave him, that is, his home. He should make it more beautiful."
The queen squinted: "It will also be your home in the future, right? He makes it full of flowers. You like it too, don't you?"
Madeleine: "Hey...hey...it's too early to talk about it now, hey, too early...hey!"
Queen:"…"
Madeleine: "It's nice to hear about him, but it would be better if someone could see him."
How clever the queen is, she knows what she means when she hears this: "Understood, I'll call that ghost man and ask him to call Robert Smith to have a few words with you, how about?"
Madeleine was overjoyed, but immediately played with her clothes: "However, he is studying hard now. This is the most important time in life. Wouldn't it be too good for me to harass him and interfere with his studies like this."
The queen said in an unpleasant manner: "It is not you who are looking for him, but I am looking for him. I want to ask if he has any new inventions to contribute to the country. Is this the head office?"
Madeleine said: "Ah, it would be best if this is the case. Then I will hide behind you and look at it quietly, and I will look at it quietly without disturbing his study."
Queen:"…"
There is no reason to talk to such an obscure girlfriend. The queen took out the crystal ball for communication with Robb and dialed the phone.
The phone was connected soon...
Through the crystal ball, the queen saw Robb's lazy but handsome face, with a woman sitting beside him.
The queen felt tight in her heart and thought to herself: Is this the infamous woman Xuelu again?
However, when I looked closely, I was relieved. It turned out that it was Marian Cotton. She was obviously not flirting when sitting next to Robb. Instead, she was holding a pen, desperately calculating what Robb was giving her. Talking about math problems.
The queen asked, "What are you doing?"
Robb smiled and replied: "Two-dimensional quadratic equation."
Queen:"…"
Well, the queen said that she didn’t understand, but it didn’t matter. The king of a country didn’t have to understand something like this kind of professionalism. She just needed to be able to control the overall situation and put on a prestigious posture. To Marian said: "Are the rails and sleepers prepared by your Cotton family and the big businessman Probo, are they already being prepared?"
Marian hurriedly said: "We are already preparing, and we have already started on the side road here. Currently, starting from the railway terminal of Xifeng Town, we are building a railway towards Nanli Village..."
The queen nodded: "Very well, the railway on my side has also begun to be built. The railway we built on both sides should be connected at Nanli Village."
Marianne bowed to show that she knew it.
The queen turned to Robb: "How are you preparing for the steam train you ordered?"
Robb smiled and said: "The dwarves have just copied the first steam engine. Now that there is a steam engine, the train is just a shell with a steam engine. It will be done soon. You don't have to worry about this, you just need to prepare a lot of money. Just come to me to buy a locomotive."
The queen was expressionless: "Can't it be cheaper?"
"No!" Robb shook his head: "You also know how difficult this thing is. I won't get the money down by myself. I will give all of it to the blacksmiths, carpenters and miners. This is their hard work. ."
