"So the question is, where does the money come from? The pension, reconstruction costs, and the money Pelican city has made it clear that it can''t take out, which is one of the reasons why the round cheese decided to leave it alone. Knight peanut Tun, in such a case, where do you think the woman who has been dazed by the desire for power will want to get money? "


    George peanut Tun stretched out his finger and gently said, "mermaid song!"


    Eddie smiled: "yes, if the city has no money, then as a president, if she wants to show her outstanding ability, she can only use the money of her guild to fill the money of the city. In this way, her assets will be quickly emptied! According to my estimation, it should be nothing to empty her tens of thousands of gold coins. If it is not enough, then we will pretend to help those victims and urge her to give greater benefits to the victims! Where do ordinary civilians think about how much money they should be able to get? When we see that the Holy See and the association support them to get more money, they will certainly stand on our side instead of going to Baron Garcia, who was already the mayor at that time. "


    "But after she bled a lot in this incident, I believe it will not be long before the end of the year. And it was time for us to borrow money. At that time, we immediately asked her to pay back the money and empty her house in one breath. I believe at that time, on the one hand, we can keep our money, on the other hand, force the woman to go bankrupt, completely hand over the mermaid song, by the way, admit that the element machine has no future, and finally obediently enter the royal family as a vase carrying excrement and urine. It should not be difficult. "


    George listened and waited silently for the flame magician to finish all his thoughts.


    As he said these words, he began to eat grapes again and again, looking at the guy with a surprised look on his face.


    Finally, when he finished, George shook his head gently, looked at the magician with a very admiring look and said, "I didn''t think before, but this time I really think you are really a talent! Eddie invincible, if you go on like this, it is estimated that one day you will become a senior member of the association and take charge of many things! "


    For George''s words, which he didn''t know whether to praise or ridicule, Eddie shrugged a little and said, "I prefer you to say that my magic power is getting stronger and stronger. Not to mention this, let''s think about how to solve this problem. We let that woman become mayor first, and then secretly bleed her. Such a process may take a little time, but generally speaking, there should be no problem. "


    In this regard, George looked very impressed and said, "what can be the problem? All right, all right, don''t worry! Now that we have decided to support her as mayor, I won''t fuck her again. The next period of time... Hey hey, I understand. It''s just to show absolute support for her, isn''t it? "


    To tell the truth, Eddie, as a member of the association, didn''t want to have too much contact with the people of the Holy See. But now there is no way. Except for the man who has the same purpose with him, he has no other power to learn from in Pelican city. However, we should guard against him, so as not to have problems with each other because of anything.


    "Now that it''s decided, let''s unify our caliber first."


    Seeing that Eddie continued to pour himself a glass of water, George thought a little and said, "I have an idea here. What do you think?"


    Eddie took a sip: "what''s the idea? Tell me. "


    With a sneer, George picked up the last grape, put it in his mouth, bit it off and said, "do you know? Those robbers are not ordinary robbers. Behind them... Hey hey, but there are a lot of family members. "


    At that moment, Eddie stopped drinking. "What do you mean?"


    George: "although we generally support that woman as mayor, our fundamental goal is to make this woman become mayor, but not many people agree, and then continue to be bled? Yesterday, our Knights went outside Pelican city and saw the families of the prisoners. That battle, a lot of women with messy children, and some old, weak, sick and disabled! "


    "You said, if such a large number of people suddenly flock to Pelican city... Hey, hey, do you think that woman will be more difficult to deal with?"


    Eddie lowered her head, frowned and thought carefully for a moment.


    After such a long thought, the flame mage raised his water cup and raised it to the paladin in front of him in a respectful way.


    "What did you just say about me? Say I''m a talent? "


    Eddie''s mouth cracked and showed a smile——


    "If I''m a talent, I think you must be the genius who can add another layer of bricks and tiles to a wonderful idea, Mr. George peanut tun."


    At that moment, the paladin and the magician smiled at each other, and the whole room was immediately filled with a happy atmosphere.


    ————


    The debris disposal and daily maintenance of the whole Pelican city are carried out in an orderly manner.


    Ten days have passed since the robbers attacked Pelican city. In these ten days, Ariel has too many things to do. Even if she doesn''t have enough time, she can''t wait to give two more hands.


    The trial of prisoners and the process of swearing in as a new mayor are also moving forward step by step. At present, it is generally determined to publish at the same time, which can be regarded as saving time to some extent.


    Since the round cheese needs to be removed from the mayor''s job and Ariel needs to take over, such rumors spread like wildfire and spread throughout the pelican city in a few days.


    For such a result, some people will worry, some people will be restless, and feel that there has never been such a precedent.


    However, when asked about round cheese, the "current mayor" had a red face, just perfunctory with the sentence "you will know by then".


    Later, people saw that the "mayor" would run to the mermaid song no matter what it was. It was obvious that he was working as the beginning of the mermaid song.


    Since the round cheese has no opinion, other citizens will naturally have no problem, just waiting for the moment when the final results are announced.


    As for Ariel


    Now, after so many busy days, she finally finished all the books about Pelican city and determined the general matters. On the whole, it can be regarded as a clear calculation of all the problems that may arise during the mayor''s shift, and hopes to form a stable transition stage as far as possible.


    After completing these, she was relieved. She put down her pen, spread it on the sofa, put on black circles, and her whole body softened.


    "Tonight... I must have a safe sleep! He will sleep for ten hours and sleep until dawn! "


    Looking at the dusk outside the window, Ariel seemed to make up her mind, swearing and swearing, deeply imprinting this determination on the bottom of her heart.


    "If necessary, President, I think you''d better let Miss Margo help you sleep."


    At this time, Tesla came out of his own room and said with a smile as he went downstairs——


    "When you sleep, let her apply a recovery magic to you. The whole person will feel light and comfortable. Help sleep. Before, in order to improve the element machine, I had insomnia at night for some time. I asked Miss Margo to let me sleep in this way. "


    Ariel was stunned. She turned her head and looked at the others in the guild. Then she suddenly remembered that those members had gone out to work after dinner. I couldn''t help sighing and said, "it''s been a hard time for you. You''ve done no less work than me. You''re the more tired person."


    Tesla smiled, sat down at the corner of Ariel''s table and said, "I don''t dare to tell others, but I don''t have much trouble. Except for the two magic bracelets. Actually... The forbidden devil bracelet is also thanks to the help of flower goblins. I just made a shape. So... I really didn''t do anything. "


    At this point, Tesla''s smile was a little embarrassed. He touched the back of his head again, then became silent and said slowly, "president, I think... What can I do for you? If I can, I really want to share the pressure for you like other members. "


    Seeing Tesla now, Ariel smiled.


    However, instead of directly comforting him and saying "I don''t need your help", she began to think seriously.


    "You want to help... That''s right, um... What can you help?"


    Ariel looked up and down at Tesla. Like herself, the assembler had no combat ability. It shouldn''t be much for him to help work in the city... Maybe he can help drive a car? Well, it''s ok if it''s just driving.


    But on second thought, driving is a job that our own workers can do, so that our engineers can run out and drive when they have nothing to do, which seems to be overqualified.


    ... workers?


    At the thought of workers, Ariel suddenly thought of a key point.


    She pinched her chin, thought carefully for a moment, and said, "Tesla, I do have something I want you to help."


    Tesla nodded and said, "president, you say! As long as I can do it, I will help! "


    Ariel breathed out slowly, thought carefully about the thoughts in her mind, and said, "the bandit attack we encountered this time suffered heavy losses. What do I think is the main reason?"


    Hearing this, Tesla also nodded and said, "I''ve thought about this question, too. The reason why those robbers can enter the pelican city so easily to kill and set fire is that the pelican city has no defensive power in essence. "


    The assembler held his arms, thought carefully and said slowly: "it is also a city. Xiehu city and Tianhe City in the border province have walls. The gate entrance of Tianhe City is even built on a natural mountain road, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. "


    "If there were a circle of walls around our city before the robbers attacked us... It doesn''t even need to be a wall. As long as there is a fence, I believe our damage will be reduced a lot."


    Speaking of this, Tesla suddenly understood and said immediately——


    "President, do you want me to help build the wall? Well... Although it''s not good to say so, it''s better to find the carpenter named Dacron for this job than me. He should know how to build the city wall better than me. But... If it''s a protective weapon such as a catapult on the city wall, I can still find a way to design it. "


    Although Tesla said happily here, Ariel shook her head silently. Just out of politeness, she waited until the assembler finished what she thought before she said, "although the city wall is also very important, I think there are still some problems in other directions."


    Tesla frowned: "what''s the problem? If we are armed or caught off guard, if there are women on our side and men on their side, it may require military training... "


    "Tesla, can you make a more convenient weapon? A weapon that can easily defeat the enemy without much training? "


    "Weapons?"


    Tesla really didn''t expect this request and was stunned at once——


    "Why... Is it a weapon? Not the defense of the city? "


    Ariel breathed out slowly and said, "because our city will expand. If we build a wall around our Pelican City, we will be trapped in this wall forever. What I need is not complacency. I hope it is a smaller, more convenient weapon that even women can easily use. "


    After a short pause, Ariel said slowly, her hands intertwined, her head bowed——


    "You should know that in the process of this bandit war, although there are differences in the number of mermaid songs and robbers, it can''t be said that it''s really much worse."


    "There are more than 460 robbers, a mob. And there are almost 200 workers here, plus our mermaid song. "


    "Logically speaking, even if they are superior in number, we have strong adventurers, and the overall strength should not be too poor. The final result is indeed like this. These robbers can''t beat us, and finally they all become our prisoners. "


    "However, even if they are weak on the whole, the huge number of people can make us unable to stop all of them for a time."


    "Where our mermaid song and the workers can''t stop, they can rush into Pelican city to kill and set fire. There are too many of them. That''s why Pelican city lost this time. "


    "Although according to what you said, Pelican city can solve the problem by building walls, or I recruit some mercenaries, or even train citizens to become guards. But it involves too much military knowledge. And I... I''m really sorry. At best, I''m just a businessman, not a military expert. "


    "Once or twice, maybe I can solve problems with my cleverness. But more times, I''m sure there will be one problem or another. At present, our guild does not have the role of a military commander. "


    "In this case, I think the best way is to make a more powerful weapon. Moreover, this weapon can be very brainless when used. Even a weak woman like me who doesn''t have much wrist power can wave it at will to destroy the enemy. "


    "So, Tesla, can you make this weapon?"


    After hearing Ariel''s request, Tesla''s face was full of sadness.


    He frowned, with a slight dissatisfaction and surprise around his mouth, and said, "president, do you want me to... Make weapons to kill? You should know that at the beginning, our origin guild was named as a cult because we were slandered and made some terrible weapons... And I believe that my former president created the element machine to better benefit the world, not to... Take the lives of others. What''s more... It becomes something that can kill people more easily and effectively... "


    Seeing Tesla''s hesitation, Ariel also calmed down.


    But a moment later, she bypassed the table, put her hand on the assembler''s shoulder and said slowly, "I always respect the president of the origin guild. Moreover, rectifying the name of the origin guild has been one of the things I must do in my life. "


    Tesla raised his head and looked at Ariel with hesitation and hesitation in his eyes.


    Ariel patted him on the shoulder again, returned to her seat and said, "it''s just that in this world, some things, some things, not that some people can''t understand or understand. It''s not that they don''t understand. It''s even possible that they are smarter and understand a hundred times than we think. "


    "Tesla, do you really think that as long as our mermaid song is better, our textile factory and element car factory are better built and earn more money, the association and the Holy See will recognize the element machine, so that the era of magic may have ended, and then the era of element machine?"


    Tesla gently bit his teeth: "if... If we do well enough... Maybe... They..."
