LOL: I'm a bad prince in Demacia

Chapter 63
Sitting on the sofa and meditating for a while, I didn't come to any conclusion.

Seeing that the sky outside was gradually getting dark, Lu Qi turned on the lights in the living room, then lay down on the sofa, and called Urna over.

"The truffle porridge I ordered yesterday is pretty good. It's still the same. Let's have two servings each. Go and return quickly."

He waved his hand and gave the order.

These days, Lu Qi’s daily dinner is basically bought outside.

I was too lazy to run, so I asked Urna to ride a carriage.

Lu Qi closed his eyes and rested his mind, but Yuerna didn't leave directly, but leaned slightly and said: "Your Highness, the family has no money."

"Huh?" A sentence made Lu Qi open his eyes, wondering if he had heard it wrong, "What did you say?"

"There is no money in the house."

Urna repeated it again.

This time Lu Qi heard it clearly, but he didn't pay too much attention to it: "If I don't have money, I'll go to the palace to ask for something. It's a small problem."

Presumably, the last time I left the palace, the more than 200 gold and the gold coins exchanged for the training camp were all spent at this time.

This is normal.

He is the one who knows how extravagant Lu Qi lives these days. The daily takeaways start at least [-] gold, and there is no limit to the high-grade ones.

Even the tea leaves that were discarded and replaced with Tianshan tea just now cost dozens of gold to buy a few liang, which is also an extremely precious variety.

Did you see Lu Qi blinked when he bought it?
Just when Lu Qi didn't care.

Urna continued: "Your Highness, I'm afraid not."

Lu Qi asked strangely: "What's wrong?"

"A new order came from the palace. Starting from last week, you can only withdraw fifty gold for living expenses from the palace every week."

Urna said in a slow voice.

Lu Qi spent a little time processing the information in this passage.

After a while, he asked, "You mean, my living expenses limit has been locked?"

"It should be like this."

Urna nodded.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Qi suddenly became furious, and angrily slapped down the table: "Impossible! My father would never treat me like this. There must be some daring lunatics obstructing it. Prepare the car, I want to enter the palace!"

He was really angry this time!

It just doesn't make sense!
"The Daredevil is me."

At this time, a voice came from behind.

Lu Qi turned his head full of anger, and when he saw Tiana approaching with a smile on his face, his anger suddenly vented a bit.

"There is no need to enter the palace, lest His Majesty really soften his heart."

Tiana walked over slowly, and said, "I think you should have almost spent all your money, so I'm here to explain the situation to you, and listen to what you have to say by the way."

Lu Qi was naturally dissatisfied, and said directly at this moment: "I think fifty gold a week is extremely unreasonable."

The prince of his country only has [-] gold per week for living expenses?

Can this be justified!
"Dell Building, Jufeng Pavilion, Shell Restaurant, Red Crab Hotel."

Tiana didn't directly answer Lu Qi's dissatisfaction, but read out one restaurant name after another, and then clicked her tongue twice, "This is a famous restaurant in the royal capital, a place that ordinary nobles probably can't afford to go to. "

A meal starts at more than a dozen gold, and it's okay for the little nobles to eat once in a while, but I'm afraid they can't stand it every day.

But Lu Qi went there every day.

You know, his meal is enough for an ordinary family to live for two months.

"It's no problem to go, let me tell you a statistic."

Tiana sat on the sofa at the other end, and said, "Last month, the imperial palace's subsidy fees and various expenses for various places added up to 720 gold, and the tax revenue and other income totaled 830 gold. "

It is clear from this data that spending exceeds income.

This is normal in terms of a country's financial situation, as long as the difference is not too big, and a relative balance between the two is maintained, it is stable.

But the four thousand gold in the middle is not a small sum.

"Then do you know who usually pays for the four thousand pieces of gold?"

Seeing Lu Qi's pensive expression, Tiana naturally knew that this kid was not stupid, so she asked again.

"Royal family?"

Lu Qi replied.

Tiana nodded: "That's right, the appropriation in the middle was paid by His Majesty."

Jarvan III is the king of a country, and he should take money from the royal treasury to make up for the four thousand gold.

Tiana continued: "The royal family has accumulated rich heritage throughout the generations, but you probably don't know that your father, His Majesty the Third, has lived more diligently and frugally than some second-rate nobles in the past half of his life."

Having said that, Lu Qi probably understood what Tiana meant.

Probably, he didn't spend his own money, so he didn't feel bad.

Damn it, since the background of the past dynasties is so rich, so what can I do if I spend some money on him?
Of course, Lu Qi didn't dare to say these words.

"Don't think it's targeting you. It's the same situation with your elder brother."

Standing up, Tiana took two steps, patted Lu Qi's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "I came here to explain the situation to you, that's about it, then goodbye."

After speaking, she really left.

It was as if it was specially made to block Lu Qi.

Lu Qi sat on the sofa, rubbed his swollen temples, and asked, "Tell me, where did the other money go?"

Even if he eats that much every day, it stands to reason that the nearly three hundred gold shouldn't be spent so quickly.

Urna naturally has statistics here.

Hearing Lu Qi's question, he replied.

"The total account in the family is 310 gold. These days, I spent a total of [-] gold for meals, [-] gold for the purchase of carriages and horses and other expenses, [-] gold for living expenses, [-] gold for autumn leaf tea and my The salary is thirty gold per week."

"Wait." Lu Qi couldn't help but glanced at Yurna in front of him, and asked, "Do you still need salary?"

When Yuerna heard this, she tilted her head strangely: "Did your Highness think that I was working for nothing?"

Lu Qi did some calculations, and asked again: "That is to say, I will give you [-] gold for living expenses of [-] gold per week?"

Urna nodded.

"Is it still too late to return it?"

For the first time, Lu Qi felt that thirty gold was so expensive.

He stared at Yuerna left and right, and there was still a little doubt in his eyes: "Say, are you the undercover agent that woman sent to me?"

Something is wrong, and now he is worried that something is wrong with everyone.

Calculated in this way, he only needs [-] gold a week for living expenses, will he really not be starved to death?

Urna didn't speak, just stood aside quietly.

"Forget it, you go out and buy some food, and cook for yourself at night."

Lu Qi sighed and waved his hands again.

There are more than a dozen gold coins left at home, which should last until next week.

One of his great strengths is that he is extremely adaptable.

If you run out of money, it’s a big deal to tighten your belt and save some money.
