Chapter 241： The king is short of money

After finding out the specific type of this devil fruit, Ling Yu stood up and stretched out.

After closing the thick paper in his hand, he left the Nafirutali family secret vault with the box containing the devil fruit.

As for the large piles of books randomly placed on the desk, someone will naturally come to clean it up.

The secret library of the Nafirutali family is not completely closed. After all, these books are usually maintained by people, but those who maintain it are all well-known and loyal, or simply come from the side of the Nafirutali family. Department members.

······

After leaving the secret vault of the Nafirutali family, Ling Yu walked straight back to his room in the palace, planning to have a good sleep.

Early the next morning, Cobra ate breakfast in the dining room alone. From time to time, he glanced at the positions that Ling Yu used to do before, as if he was wondering why his very self-disciplined son didn't come out for breakfast on time today.

Icarim, who was standing behind Cobra, saw His Majesty's small movements, and deliberately stepped forward and whispered in Cobra's ear.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has been looking through the information in the secret library last night, and he didn't go back to the room to rest until the dawn this morning! If you have something, do you want me to inform your Highness."

Cobra heard Icarem's words and understood why Ling Yu hadn't come out today.

Cobra shook his head with a laugh. He understood why Ling Yu turned through the information so late. After all, Ling Yu had told him before that he came back to find out himself through the collection of the Nafirutali family. What is the power of the devil fruit in the hand?

Therefore, he was not surprised by Ling Yu's behavior, it was just that Ling Yu would check it out as soon as the day broke.

"In that case, tell the palace to be quiet today! As for Xiaoyu, don't bother him for the time being, and wait until he wakes up! By the way, ask to set off to warm up some food and eat when Xiaoyu wakes up." Blah finished smiling and ordered Icarim.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

After speaking, Iqalem exited the restaurant and passed Cobra's order.

Cobra speeded up his meal, then walked out of the restaurant and started a busy day.

On this day, the palace, which was quiet on weekdays, seemed to be quieter. After feeling this weird atmosphere, even the chirping birds on weekdays were much quieter.

When Ling Yu woke up, he found that it was three poles in the morning. He looked at the clock on the wall and found that it was already more than one in the afternoon.

Ling Yu shook his head, still a little confused, and walked to the bathroom to freshen up.

After he walked out of the room, Ling Yu's whole person already looked a lot more energetic.

After walking out of his room, Ling Yu walked straight to the restaurant, intending to fill his stomach first.

On the way, he found that today's palace seemed a bit quiet, so he deliberately let out his domineering perception.

Only after discovering that everything was normal in the palace did he secretly laugh at whether he had made a fuss.

But after all, is there nothing wrong with being careful? It is always good to be more cautious.

Next, Ling Yu filled his stomach with today's breakfast and lunch in the dining room of the palace, and found Cobra in the study next to the hall, who was discussing something with the ministers.

Ling Yu listened at the door for a while and found that they were discussing all the money and materials that need to be consumed in those places.

The military minister smiled bitterly over there and was having a headache for the food and money that the army needs to consume next.

The Minister of People's Livelihood continued to complain about the materials needed to resettle the victims and rebuild the city.

The Secretary of the Environment is struggling to restore the environmental problems caused by the drought in Alabastan.

The Minister of Finance is blowing his nose and staring at the ministers who complained above. Are you short of money? The national treasury is even more short of money than you. Not only is it short of money, but it is also short of food. Nowadays, a lot of grain in Alabastan has to be imported from other grain-producing kingdoms due to drought.

Fortunately, which partner of His Royal Highness the Prince can rain for Alabastan, otherwise the lack of water will be a big problem!

These ministers can be said to be the people who know the current situation of the Kingdom of Alabastan the most. Everyone knows the financial situation of the Kingdom of Alabastan well, but if they lack money, many of their work cannot be carried out!

These ministers could only look at each other with Cobra and then gave each other a wry smile.

Cobra in his seat was also very worried about this, and Zhi was able to once again take out a sum of funds from the private library of the Nafirutali family for emergency use.

After several ministers received a sum of funds for a temporary emergency, although they breathed a sigh of relief, they all retired full of sorrow.

After all, this emergency fund can't solve the problem at all! But they can't always let the king's own private treasury fill the void of the treasury!

So when I quit one by one, I felt a bitter face Then I thought about how to use this fund where it was needed most, and then tried to see if I could save a little money from that place and use it in other places. local.

However, after seeing Ling Yu at the door, they still managed to squeeze a smiling face and greeted Ling Yu.

······

After the ministers retired, Ling Yu and Cobra also had a lot of randomness. In front of Ling Yu, Cobra seemed to have forgotten his previous sorrows for a while, and laughed and joked that Ling Yu didn't go to bed until dawn. thing.

Ling Yu looked at the smile on Cobra's face and understood that Cobra did not want to worry about what happened just now.

After thinking about it, Ling Yu temporarily stopped telling Cobra that he might get a lot of gold on the island this time.

Let's wait for the gold to be brought back from the sky island before telling him!

Otherwise, it won't be good if something happens to be delayed at that time, lest the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

After chatting with Cobra for a while, Ling Yu told Cobra about leaving Alabastan temporarily in a few days.

Regarding Ling Yu leaving Alabastan a few days later, although Cobra was reluctant to give up, he did not ask too much. After all, it is normal for children to have their own affairs when they are older.

In addition, Cobra also knew that Ling Yu also had a huge Baroque work agency to manage, and he thought that there was something in the Baroque work agency that Ling Yu needed to deal with.

Before parting, Cobla deliberately emphasized again to Ling Yu, asking him to notify him in time if he encounters something similar to Jack in the previous drought, and he will try to solve it like this time.

Ling Yu could only agree with this with a smile.

That night, Ling Yu once again accompanied Cobra to eat a hearty and warm dinner, and once again fluttered away from Albana.
