Compared with the Ministry of Households and the Clan’s Mansion, the Ministry of Internal Affairs manages fewer things, but some of the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are also very huge, and it is also the unit most closely related to Li Cong, let alone other things. , Let’s talk about the imperial merchants under the name of the House of Internal Affairs. All of them belonged to Li Cong’s current partners. Because of Li Cong’s reasons, they all lived very well. Is it because the manager came to the door to see them too well?
The county king is one of the few iron hat princes. Although he is a county king, he is an iron hat king. As long as he has not committed the crime of treason, his title must always be like this. The prince is even more powerful. He has been the head of the House of Internal Affairs for 70 years. The people from top to bottom are basically the old guy’s people, and everything he wants or people can get into his own hands. It’s not that the reason why he came to Li Cong is also for money. Except for the Ministry of Households, they are the emperor’s second purse. Ordinarily, they should have a lot of money, but the emperor is so happy to build it here today. A palace, I will build a villa there tomorrow, I really don’t have that much money, and the rewards for meritorious people are all funded from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is said that it is the emperor’s chief steward, but he is embarrassed. There were more times than Tian Congdian. If the emperor couldn't satisfy these things, his head would fall quickly.
At the moment, both the household department and the clan government have obtained the money they need, and I still have a shortfall of 80 billion dollars. It would be great if I could loan this out. In fact, there were a lot of money in the internal affairs department before. The interest rate is not so low. The interest rate in other places is less than 50% every year. Li only needs 25% from here. If he doesn’t take this opportunity to borrow I am too sorry for myself.
"Actually, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is completely different from those two units. If I am right, the annual income of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is even more than that of the Ministry of Households?" Li Cong said with a smile. There is no fake.Because the tax is not high, the tax revenue of the Ministry of Households is not very high, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs can manage a lot of transactions, just like the shipping on the Magnolia River that Li Cong first involved. All the money in the house was collected by the royal family, and that was something that was managed by the people in the internal affairs office. The people in the internal affairs office can be said to be supernatural.If people like them are short of money, they can get some, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is still so short of money.There is only one reason. They are embezzling too much. Of course, they will not take care of this matter. This matter is not something that I should manage. If I ask more questions, it may be my own. , So Li Cong just wanted to get his own interests.
"What Cao Jue said is true. It's just that no matter how good the appearance is, there is no money inside. This 80 billion silver is the money to prepare for your Majesty's upcoming Southern Tour. If this is not well prepared, it is estimated My top wear is over. In fact, sometimes I think about it. It’s better to take a break every day. It’s a pity that it doesn’t give me this chance to rest. What can I do? . I can only continue to do this." Li Cong didn't believe it at all when he said this. This kid wanted to be the head of the internal affairs office for a lifetime.
"It's okay to borrow 80 billion. What I want to know is what I can get?" Li Cong said directly, seeing these officials in succession is really a bit tired, and this is the last one. Li Cong is already The concierge might as well anyone come in.I also need my own space.
"Hehe, the interest is the same as the Ministry of Household has negotiated with you. If you borrow for three years, you can have 60 billion silver in interest in three years." Lijun Wang said with a smile.
"Hehe, the prince is joking. Since this is the case, I won't give it away, I have something to do." Li Cong said jokingly, and Prince Li also smiled helplessly.
"Really. It's just a joke with you. This will make people go. I want to give you a good exchange. You have a monopoly on shipping on the Magnolia River. Only our Ministry of Internal Affairs has 40,000. The boat is in my hands, how about it? I immediately contracted these 40,000 boats to you, and I just hand in 150,000 taels every year. All the rest is yours, how about it?" Jun Wang laughed He said, he didn’t know how much Li Cong’s profit was, because he didn’t know what was going on with the machine Li Cong installed. All the major forces got that thing, and they tried to build some, but they all failed in the end. So I don’t think about it anymore. Obviously Li Cong is not afraid of them doing it. Now, in addition to the various fees paid by each ship under Li Cong’s, he can earn 400,000 yuan in silver a year. , This year there are 16 billion silver, which is very good.
"It's a little bit less. If you can give me 40,000 boats on the Wutu River, this transaction will be fine. Of course, you can't work in vain. One thousandth of the interest on my loan every year belongs to the prince. "One-thousandth is not very pleasant, but one-thousandth of one hundred million is worth 0 million taels of silver, and it is worth 60 million taels of silver for three years, which is not a small amount.
"Well, you still have the big head, but this is no problem. That's good. In addition to the 80,000 you proposed, I will add 000 from the Wutu River to you, and make up a whole number, 100,000 boats. You give me two thousandths." This old guy is not a fool, anyway, the total income will not decrease and will increase. He fired all the people on the boat there and told them to get out. He can save hundreds of millions of dollars every year. Yes, I am really happy to do such a thing.
"The prince is easy to calculate, so this thing will be done." Li Cong said with a smile, even if this thing is done, Li Cong directly fell into the seat after sending away the Lijun Wang. Damn, I will meet three a day. The chief of an authority department can only receive this treatment for the emperor, and he really can't stand it.
"Oh, I didn't expect that these uncles are usually so serious, just like this county prince. Every time his father says he wants to fight corruption, he is called the most fierce one, and he is very The cooperating party will report some corrupt officials of the House of Internal Affairs. I really didn’t expect that he was the biggest asshole.” The little princess waited for this guy to leave and said that the number of prominent princes in the House of Clan was due to the clan’s children. , This county king was purely because of his own interests. In fact, such things were very popular throughout the empire.That is, the little princess doesn't know.
"Hehe, actually you don’t need to say that. You have also seen that the life of the clan’s children is not easy. You do this to these imperial uncles for your children and grandchildren. Now they are all iron hat kings. With that kind of plan, their own direct descendants naturally don’t need to manage this way, just like the Lijun king. Except for his eldest son who can inherit the palace, I guess the other sons will have two if they don’t have thirty. Ten. After the twenty sons were separated, the title is not very high. He will only have two or three prostitutes at most. Except for the boss, the others are all earls. The status of this concubine is even lower. They are all barons. , Although the court will give them a certain amount of silver when they canonize them, but what use do you think those hundreds of thousands of silver are for these clan children? As far as I know, the youngest son of the King Li will only hold a red card. It costs tens of thousands of silver a night. The money given by the court is gone for three or two days, and he can only turn to his Lao Tzu for help. Although all have been separated to live, but if his son does not live well, he In his heart, it is estimated that he is also uneasy. This son takes care of one or two million people a year, and nothing else. It is said that his son has nearly half a billion silver in a year, and this grandson has more. There must be a hundred grandchildren. The New Year's Eve money will cost you a few million dollars, otherwise you won’t be able to get it.” Li Cong smiled and defended the Li County King. In fact, this is nothing else.Who said this old guy has such a strong reproductive ability, his descendants are also the same as him.
"Yes, I didn't expect it to be so difficult even when I saw his usual scenery." The little princess now had her kindness again.
"He is a very good iron hat king. Most people do not live well in his life. Many people live much worse than him. He is still a powerful king. Those who have no rights The prince, the children and grandchildren are no less than him, and the lives of those people are even worse. Among the seventy-odd county kings, 20 of them can be the same as the Li county kings." These princes and younger brothers Li Cong are still very clear.
"Why don't you know how to go out and find a way out, just stay in the capital, what can you do in the future." The little princess said worriedly.
"Hehe, it’s not because I feel like I’m the son of the dragon. If you can’t hang around in the capital, go to the place? How could the faces of all these people pull their heads down? Let’s not talk about how much they are. It’s embarrassing that they really went out. What do you think they would do?” Li Cong felt a bit abrupt after saying what he said. His wife was the same as them before, if not for Li Cong If it is true, many princesses in the capital have encountered similar experiences to him. The princesses of this clan have a worse life than these men. If they marry the little princess into a rich family like this, it would be great, but if there is no such thing. If it’s fate, let’s follow the bad luck. Regarding the married princesses, whether they are the highest-level princesses or the low-level embroidered women, all are 500 taels per person per year. As for the sons born to the princesses, there is a fourth grade. The official title of a captain, but it is also a lifelong title.
As for Li Cong’s prince, the rank of the prince is equivalent to that of a first-class general in the pillar country. The annual salary is 13,500 taels per year, plus other things, it is estimated to be enough for 1,000 taels. It’s still very easy to live outside of the capital. But if you are in the capital, you don't necessarily spend such a small amount of money on a party.
"Although it is said that, but I really want to help them, you must have a way, come up with a way for me to add some income to them every year, it is always some of my brothers Yes." The little princess knew that Li Cong had many ways, and it was okay to help the master in disguised form to help her family.
"My wife, how can your mind think that way? This is impossible. I do have a way. It is even possible for me to give them some money. But the clan children are different from normal people. Can you let your Majesty be kind to them, absolutely can't let other people do this thing, if I do this thing, is it because I have bad intentions? At that time, we want to live some quiet life, that is impossible. "Li Cong said solemnly. In fact, there is another one of these clan children that Li Cong didn't say in order to take care of the little princess. These clan children are not worth helping at all.These guys are all rubbish.
The little princess nodded helplessly. It seems that she has seen this fact clearly. Her husband is right. They are not ordinary people and can't help them casually. Seeing the little princess's face a little unhappy, Li Cong It's not very comfortable in my heart.He told the little princess what had just been discussed with Prince Xian, although he couldn't change much for the entire clan residence.But after all, 20,000 or 30,000 people can live a good life every year. This is not bad. After listening to this, the little princess also has some smiling faces. I didn’t pay attention to these people before, but now I see them. , The days are really miserable.
The little princess also went out to take a look during the day. Of course, he went to some very good homes. From other people's homes, these people lived well.But suddenly he thought of his sister Ilha. Ilha is the little princess’s half-sister, but her mother is just an ordinary concubine. Compared with the little princess’s mother, the imperial concubine, it is very different. Big, so she was a princess when she got married, and she married a third-rank general from the forward camp, but unfortunately it was involved in the previous prince disputes.She was dismissed from office by the emperor in a rage. Although the princess can still live in her own princess mansion, her husband and family are all living in a small courtyard with a second entrance, and her in-laws and other things, she herself How can I live in the princess mansion, let's talk about it.It is also a very main reason. After the marriage, the princess mansion is the princess’s private property. Those things are yours and cannot be sold, but you can only rely on yourself to operate, so the princess in Beijing is deserted. The mansion is not a two-seater, no one will live in five years.The emperor will take it back.
Li Cong really can’t take care of these things. No matter what he has made, it seems to these people that he is wrong. To these clan families is too good. Some people will say that he bought them. If it’s not good to them, it’s not good to spread the harsh words of the clan, but Li Cong doesn’t have so much time to think about it. What Li Cong has to do now is the opening of his first jewelry store.
Li Cong also knows how to buy and sell jewelry on the earth. This thing can be said to be very good. The profit can definitely be more than 100%, especially in places like the Imperial Capital. As long as you have better things, then those people They definitely won’t be stingy with the silver in their hands. They spend almost the same amount of money as flowing water. Now Li Cong is not only dealing with all jewelry, but now Li Cong mainly plays with pearls, all of them are Dongzhu. Those who have been cultivated in the last one or two years are naturally inferior to the best Dongju, but there is no problem with the middle and upper ones. As long as they are not professionals, it is impossible to tell what this thing looks like. , How good and bad are all brought out to see.
When Li Cong was about to leave, Li Cong began to prepare for this last thing. In fact, if Li had left long ago according to the original plan, it would take time for the Stormtrooper to get there. It is not that easy. It is not a simple matter that many people want to get there in a short time. Li Cong has been out for a few more days, and he is idle anyway, so it is better to handle the Cao jewelry by himself.
The wealthy ladies and the ladies in the capital think that what they like most is the opening of a new jewelry store and other things. What Li Cong wants is not how precious his own things are, but how beautiful his styles are. This world Li Cong is very clear about some of the jewels on the website. Basically, there are no styles of these things. Li Cong used the teleportation array to teleport some things to the earth. Of course, such as those on the earth. Some glass is also available here. Those things are the most precious things here. Normal glass is not good. That is too fragile, but the things made of bulletproof glass are completely different. Those things It is definitely the hardest thing, and people here will definitely fall for it.
The place chosen by Li Cong’s Cao’s jewelry is naturally the best location in Beijing. This is the youngest shop and it has to have a history of more than 0 years. Li Cong’s approach to this shop in front of him can be said to be exhausting. Yes, although the royal family gave the little princess a door-to-door room when she got married, the place is incomparable to this place. It is also a good place for merchants to gather, but there are mostly medium-sized contacts. Merchants, here are the most powerful and wealthy group of people in the entire capital, and they will spend a lot of money here.For ordinary people's money, Li Cong knew that it was not very profitable. They would think about it for a long time for every two pennies. It was completely different from these people. These people would not feel those things.
This is actually the connection of two shops, with a total of seven floors above and below, with an area of at least 50,000 square meters.It's completely different from the guys in other shops. Most of the waiters here are beautiful women.It is very easy to buy some beautiful slaves. As long as you can pay the price, we can collect all kinds of people for you. Basically all of the 370 waiters here are so-called ladies. There is no way, your father and brother have committed something, and we can only ask you to come to this place as a waiter, but the basic salary of 30 taels per month is definitely not less, and the welcome at the door is also thousands of people. Picked out of ten thousand.Beautiful girls like them are trying hard to flatter those women who are no longer graceful. I believe that those people will be able to pay vigorously. For nothing else, praise themselves for this watery girl, and we have to take this too. Don’t you buy things?
Before the entire jewelry shop opened its doors, a lot of people came to see it. It can be said that it has created a lot of momentum, and things like propaganda posters are sent to the hands of every upper class in the empire.Li Cong spent millions of dollars on the promotion fee, and he would also give out some small gifts and so on that day. All of them bear the Cao’s logo, although none of them are very valuable. , But this thing is really beautiful, and most people already have one.If they compare with Li Cong in trading, many people will be hit, because everyone is not a person of the same era, you will naturally suffer.
The jewelry shops around Cao’s Jewelry are basically all jewelry shops, but they just saw the hot one that opened the door on the first day of Cao’s Jewelry Shop and they didn’t even bother to continue doing it. What else?Damn, everyone on one street went there.What do I have here? There are two or three kittens. When they came, I told Lao Tzu that the styles of Lao Tzu were not good and that was not good. Damn, I didn’t believe that the things in Cao’s jewelry were amazing. When it opened one day, all of the around a dozen shopkeepers went to Cao's jewelry to study. After seeing the design style, they were convinced, and they were nothing compared to others.
They also thought of stealing learning, but the style of others is not something they can learn in a while. It seems that some of their craftsmen have never seen it before, and it is useless to read them. You have to wait for those. The master craftsmen came and took a look. This can't be done in a short while.
On that day, the entire jewelry store made a profit of more than 100 million taels of silver. This is the previous transaction. The large area in the back was made into a so-called VIP box by Li Conggi. You want to come in and choose something, no problem, it’s not you. If you have money, you must be a nobleman or a magician. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible. Of course, all the nobles are given gifts when they enter for the first time. Seven on the first day The VIP boxes are basically all full. Naturally, the most noble things are shown to them. Each item will not cost a few million silver. The gifts given are also more than one million silver. First of all, Li Cong won one. The name is generous, and the ones that are given out are transparent glass ornaments. No one here has seen these things. Even if you want to buy them, we will not sell them. This is only for our most distinguished guests. , So most people want to become VIP customers, not for anything else, not for their own face.
Adding up the front and the back, Li has sold more than 2 billion silver items from now on, with a net profit of more than 1.5 billion silver, and the materials of many things are also very precious. Li will start selling glass jewelry after half a month. These things need someone to open the market first. Those who enter the VIP room within half a month are the best promotional materials. They looked at the things Li Cong gave one by one and thought they had taken a big advantage. Well, in fact, it's not the same thing at all. All these guys made a false advertisement for Li Cong. Cheap things match their identities. This is the most precious thing.
Of course, the headdresses of the ladies in the palace are the most important things. These people are also leading the fashion of the upper echelon of the empire. Naturally, these people do not need to come out and buy them. Set of jewelry worth more than one million silver, this one alone cost Li Cong nearly 200 million silver.Who said the emperor has too many wives? Of course, some princesses in the capital and the women in the real power family also got a share, and other jewelry traders saw that they spent billions of silver just as gifts. , Let's fight with others, do we have the ability?It's better to separate it from others and buy it in the future. Otherwise, it's yourself that will suffer in the end. As for stealing learning or something, let's forget it.Now that the upper class society in Beijing doesn't want a face, everyone knows that the Cao's firm is the most authentic.This one of ours is from someone who is stealing, and it is incomparable with others.
Li Cong estimates that just this store in the capital can make more than 0 billion silver every year. This jewelry store must be opened. I originally thought that the entire Northern Empire could have hundreds of billions of silver every year. It has been doubled several times, but these are not what we have now, we have to wait for time to prove it.
After doing all these things, Li Cong was on the road. Now Li Cong has received a report from the Stormtrooper. They are already waiting for Li Cong at the border between the Northern Empire and the Forgotten Lands.Good guys, some are prisoners in exile or escaped criminals from the empire, and others are people who are against the empire. This is against the most elite Stormtrooper in the north of the empire. This is nothing wrong. Strange, no matter where they are, they hope Li Cong can go back soon.
If the Stormtroopers didn't care about these people in the past, they would show their weapons and rush over.Those people may not want to stop the Stormwind Legion at all, but now they are different from before. The bosses of both sides are now Li Cong. Although they all know this, it is necessary for the members of the Stormwind Legion to follow Are these people hanging around together?Forget it, we won't be with this mob.But the people of Forgotten Lands don’t see much of these people from the Stormwind Legion. Don’t you rely on some formations or something? If you really rely on your own ability, I will beat you two.
When Li Cong arrived, the atmosphere on both sides was already very tense. According to their regulations, the Stormtroopers would still perform daily exercises. The voice was so loud that the people in these Forgotten Lands would wake up naturally every day.If you woke up, you would eat, drink, and bet for money. Such a loud noise would naturally irritate them, and everyone would go to the door of the Stormtrooper to yell at them. Good fellows, you bastards are really courageous. This is also in this forgotten place. If you are inside the empire, you will be directly arrested and pressed into death row. Commander Lin Lei of the Stormwind Legion can be said to have endured for a long time, if not thinking of Li Cong. People don't get up because they can offend, and they have killed their own people long ago.
Li Cong saw this situation when he arrived. Tens of thousands of heavy cavalry from the Stormwind Legion were already on the cusp. As long as their general ordered them to rush out and wash the mobs, there were hundreds of thousands on the opposite side. The people in Forgotten Lands are still screaming there. Li Cong really doesn’t know what to say to these bastards. Do you really think you are very capable? The tens of thousands of soldiers from the Stormwind Legion really rushed out, the opposite. Those sixth-level fighters may be killed. This is a normal thing. Their attacks all have formations, and you can always find your defensive weaknesses. It will be strange if you don't suffer.
Although these people who live and die are not very afraid of the members of the Stormwind Legion, they are still very scared of Li Cong. Seeing Li Cong stepping down from the airship, they retreat quickly. The soldiers of the Stormwind Legion also saw it. Li Cong’s airships, but they are different from these people. They think Li Cong has nothing to do, that is, just an earl. If it weren’t for the emperor’s son-in-law, how could he please move them? Li Cong felt it on it The arrogance of these guys is indeed a trouble. It seems that if they don't show their hands, these people would really not put themselves in their eyes.
The airship is still 300 meters away from below. Li never waited for the airship to land, but jumped straight down. At this height, the average sixth-level fighter can do it. If it's that simple, Li Congye I won’t do such boring things anymore. When Li goes from the bottom to the middle, big ice cubes can condense under his feet. It can be said that Li Cong stepped on these ice cubes little by little. People don't look at Li Cong that much anymore, the good guy's ice cube can appear in such a short time, this ice magician will not be below the eighth level.The people in the army have all seen ice magicians on the battlefield. They know that an eighth-level ice magician can kill thousands of them or even tens of thousands of them in an instant. The person in front of them is an eighth-level multi-line. Of the magician.
Lin Lei himself is a ninth-level fighter. In fact, speaking of being the boss of such a main battle army, the first-level ninth-level fighter is a bit difficult, but he is indeed the best person in all the main battle army. Awarded by His Majesty the Emperor.In such a team, personal ability is certainly an important aspect.But the ability to command and coordinate is the most important aspect. How you should manage such an organization of more than 10 million people is the most important thing. Lin Lei is undoubtedly an excellent job in this regard. Not only were many people here convinced, but the other commanders were also satisfied.
Seeing Li Cong coming down, and getting down to the camp of the Stormtroopers, Lin Lei urged his mount to pass.His mount is an eighth-level monster, which Lin Lei has been raising since he was a child. The relationship between the two is very deep. This monster is a snow lion living in the frozen forest. Look After arriving at Li Cong, the snow lion was also confused for a while, but when Lin Lei urged the guy to rush to Li Cong's side, he knew that he could not be ashamed today.
"Mr. Earl. Please allow me to take a look at the tiger charms you carry. This is the rule in our army." This guy's face is not as flattering as the officials in the capital. Some are the habits of this guy. No wonder The corps commander has not been promoted for nearly three hundred years. Although this position is also good, few people will be in this position for 300 years.This guy is definitely the only one. Although Li Cong is not his boss, he is much bigger than this guy after all, so it's okay to cheat, but obviously this guy doesn't mean that.
"No problem, please look." Li Cong didn't move, and the tiger charm slowly flew from Li Cong's pocket to this guy's hand.It was an eighth-level wind magic, this person was really powerful, even Lin Lei, who was usually very proud of him, had a headache at this time, this person was definitely much stronger than himself.
"There is no problem with tiger charms. Now the entire Stormwind Legion accepts your command. Please give orders." Lin Lei raised the tiger charms in his hand above his head, and the tens of thousands of heavy cavalry behind him immediately pulled out their sabers and pointed them at the sky. It’s uniform. Li Cong is not someone who has never seen an army, but Li Cong is absolutely sure that the army in front of him is stronger than his own guards on the earth. Such a team is from such a detail. It can be seen from above.
"Okay, I'll try to see if your Stormwind Legion is the same as what was said outside. Everyone is ready to set off immediately and arrive at the frozen forest from here. It is said that you can go back and forth without rest. I will see if you just arrive. It’s fine there. I don’t need to come back at all. I’ll see if your team and your formation have spread out and set off." Li Cong said loudly, his words surprised the Stormtroopers. To be honest, in the past few years, millions of people traveled hundreds of miles, which is absolutely no problem, but these years have never experienced such training at all, because there is not so much money, these millions of people are frozen. Eating in the forest is a problem. This guy will not let them find something to eat. If a few people kill some beasts, it’s okay. Millions of people are expected to eat the beasts in the frozen forest. , But if the order came down, they still went to work immediately.
Fifteen minutes, it only took fifteen minutes. These heavy cavalry have already started to set off. If millions of people set off on this road, it would take several hours. In fact, this speed is already It is very fast. Tens of thousands of people are dispatched every minute. Except for the movement of people and the shouts of officers, there is basically no sound coming out of the entire camp. People also understand that the Stormwind Legion really isn't something they can provoke if they want to provoke. They are obviously not on the same level as the members of the Stormwind Legion.
Li Cong also glanced at the outermost guys in these Forgotten Lands. They are really a bunch of rubbish. They can't live their lives. Maybe what they do every day is just to try something like this. Li Cong didn't take the airship either. , He also has to challenge himself, he has to drag himself past with his own space power. In the eyes of others, this is wind magic, but he knows that it has nothing to do with the flying technique of wind magic. .
The soldiers around also felt admiration for Li Cong’s approach. They all knew that magicians could fly, but they would not fly over long distances. Otherwise, there would not be so many magicians. There is a means of transportation, and now people are willing to go there by themselves, which is indeed worthy of admiration.
At this moment Li Cong has already started his own battle, and Li Cong's enemies will naturally not be idle. They already know who their enemy is, but now the entire frozen forest wants to pass the news. That’s impossible. Even if they have the ability, they don’t have that channel. They have to get out. But if they are exposed, there are a lot of precious things in the headquarters of the Thunder Gate. These tens of thousands of years The search is not a joke. If it is exposed now, their tens of thousands of years will be in vain, and then it will be cheaper.
In fact, they also said that they should pay attention to Li in the last meeting. Why did this guy use so much manpower and material resources to block them? They can't believe this, and it doesn't make much sense. Most of them can't. What I understand is that all the messages they sent out through Monsters were intercepted, which made it impossible for their huge strength outside to exercise. If people go out, they can intercept them, but how does this Monster do?This depends on the tenth-level monsters brought by Li Cong. They released their breath. Those monsters that went out were all low-level monsters. They felt that the terrible aura would probably be nothing.(To be continued.
