Chapter 168 Severe (3/5)

It turned out that during the process of Krober reviewing the documents, various managers in the St. Gold Castle learned that the palace prime minister personally appointed by the Grand Duke had arrived.

At that time, Veronica sent a total of two letters via raven.

One of the letters was to Kloeber, and the other was to the steward who was in charge of St. Goldberg at the time.

In the letter, she clearly described the news of her appointment of Clober as the palace prime minister and the possible subsequent war with the Dukedom of Edwin.

And in the letter, Veronica allowed the housekeeper to inform other servants of these two things.

However, the housekeeper did not make the matter public.

He only spread the news that Krober was appointed as the palace prime minister. As for the news of the war, it only spread among the management of St. Goldberg.

When everyone learned that Krober was appointed as the palace prime minister, they were very surprised and curious.

Because the position of Palace Prime Minister has never appeared in the history of the Golden Duchy, and this newly appointed Prime Minister has attracted even more attention.

Despite the prime minister's unfavorable reputation, these managers did not believe the rumors easily.

After all, they all know that to become a close confidant of the Grand Duke, appearance and flattery alone are far from enough.

"The Grand Duke's love interest is not something that ordinary people can do. Otherwise, there are so many people in the Dragon's Breath Knights, how come no one can get close to the Grand Duke?"

This sentence comes from the intelligence chief of St. Goldberg, one of the most trusted subordinates of Archduke Veronica.

He has an in-depth understanding and unique insights into his master.

He knew very well that the criteria for the ecumenical selection of candidates were by no means external factors, but required real talent and wisdom.

Therefore, he had high expectations for the palace prime minister and believed that he must be outstanding.

After learning that Krober had arrived riding a griffon, they quickly formed a team and went to the office to formally meet with Krober.

When Krober served as the royal herald, they all met Krober more or less several times and had a preliminary understanding of him.

It's just that their impression is still at the stage of Krober being a formal knight.

At that time, although Klober was considered excellent, he was not so eye-catching.

He can only be regarded as a good-looking young knight.

And the Grand Duke was a man of appearance, so it was normal for him to be partial to this young knight.

After the Grand Duke's birthday party, they learned that the original little knight had become a viscount and had been promoted to an earth knight.

At that time, they really looked at this young man named Krober.

Because they knew that Krober had truly entered the upper echelons of the principality at this time.

At this time, they still didn't know that Krober had discovered three new islands on the blue sea.

If they knew it, it would probably refresh their understanding of Krober.

"Meet the Prime Minister!"

When they saw that Krober was finally planning to take a rest, everyone stepped forward and bowed to Krober.

Seeing this scene, Krober didn't know that he was so absorbed in his work that he left these people aside and asked them to wait for him for a long time.

"Sorry everyone, you said you didn't call me even when you came. I really didn't notice you. Please forgive me."

Krober said with a smile.

Logically speaking, with Krober's own strength and status, there is absolutely no need to apologize for such a thing.

But after all, this was the first time they had met as superiors and subordinates, and they had been relatively harmonious when they got along before.

If you act condescendingly at this time, it will inevitably make people feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, Krober chose to handle this matter in an equal and cordial manner, hoping to shorten the distance between them.

At the same time, he didn't want his image to become the kind of person who would be domineering after getting rich and no one would look down on him.

On the contrary, he hopes that through this move, everyone can see his sincerity and affinity.

Be kind to the weak and unyielding to the strong.

This is the true way of knighthood!

Well...it's all bullshit.

This is actually a way for Klober to get closer to people.

After all, he, the palace prime minister, was also driven to take office.

I haven't been here for a few days, and there are already a lot of documents waiting to be processed.

I have just taken office and I don’t know much about many things.

So there were a lot of these files that he didn't know what to do with.

And these people are all veterans who have been in official circles for a long time. They know how to do many things and who are suitable for doing which things.

With their help, all you have to do is simply assign these tasks.

To put it bluntly, in this aspect alone, Krober still needs to rely on the people in front of him.

Even if we kill them all and promote a few more, it will still be a change of soup but not medicine, there will be no difference.

And those people lived up to their reputation as veterans. After Krober finished speaking, they all understood the hidden meaning behind this sentence.

Originally, when they came to the office, they saw that Krober was focused on reviewing documents and ignored them, and they couldn't help but think that Krober wanted to give them a slap on the wrist.

It is normal for a new official to have three things to do when he takes office.

So everyone stood there and waited.

It wasn't until more and more time passed that they realized something was wrong.

The Prime Minister really didn't seem to notice them!

But they didn't dare to disturb the Prime Minister's work, so they had to wait and wait for when Krober would discover them.

If you think about it from another angle, this can be regarded as a different kind of show of force.

"Where is it? You are working hard for the country. How can we blame you for this?"

Everyone said a few polite words, as long as there is no malice towards them, as long as there is no malice, we are a family!

"Sir, we have been prepared for war after receiving the war preparation instructions from Archduke Veronica.

It's just that we don't know what to do next. I wonder if you have any secret instructions from the Grand Duke? "

The person who asked this question was also the intelligence chief. The war was imminent and he had the heaviest burden, so he was also the most anxious one.

Like the stable master, he is the most relaxed, he only needs to take care of the horses he is responsible for.

The logistics director and financial director have been frantically calculating the amount of money and food needed for this war these days.

The two of them came to meet Krober, even with ledgers in hand.

The logistics director followed closely and reported to Krober:

"Your Majesty Prime Minister, the Grand Duke already took away part of the material reserves before setting off. Now that war is about to start again soon, the stored food is simply not enough!"

The financial director nodded in agreement and said worriedly: "Yes, this battle happened too suddenly. We had no preparation before. It is too difficult to prepare supplies at the last minute!"

The two looked at each other and sighed.

Others also spoke up and told their own difficulties.

Anyway, thousands of words can be summed up in just one sentence——

"The odds are not good!"
