“Military expansion is not a trivial matter.” Milo explained to P5092, “It still needs to go through a formal approval process by Commander Dublin.”
However, the Great Hoodwinker said from nearby, “Commander Dublin has said that you’ll be in charge of things in Stronghold 144 and its territories. He won’t interfere with your decisions. Even if you submit documents for approval, they’ll be rejected and sent right back. Right now, you basically have the power to act as you please.”
“Does Stronghold 144 have the budget for military expansion?” Milo looked at Scott.
“Of course. After the trade routes opened, although the tax rates were very low, Stronghold 144 has become the richest stronghold in the Northwest,” Scott replied. “In terms of our local regional finances, we have more money than we can spend.”
“More than we can spend or do you just not know what to spend it on? Otherwise, the food shortage issue should’ve been resolved already. I’ve walked around the market recently and noticed that the food prices are increasing almost daily. This is a very bad sign. P5092, you can just take charge of the military expansion plans. The rest of us still have to resolve the major problem of the food shortage first,” Milo said calmly.
