Blood tax

Chapter 368 The Fertility Rate Has Not Declined This Year!
why are you here...

Of course, this kind of idiot-like speech cannot be blurted out!
What a smart person Griffith is, especially after the King of Mystery lost three games in a row, his mental state has been raised to an astonishing level, like a groundhog sticking out his head on the grassland, he will not let go Never the slightest danger!
"Children make choices," Griffith raised his chin, "I want them all!"

Galadia raised the corners of her mouth slightly, swaying her waist-length hair as she walked towards the dining table.Her steps are very light, as light and agile as if she was on tiptoe.When she leaned over to put the stewed mutton with radish and bread on the table, the round curve under her graceful and slender waist was stretched out at a glance, making people want to hug her from behind and hug her. .

As soon as this idea came to mind, a strong fragrance was already gushing out from the small pot.Griffith's mouth seemed to be overflowing with the scalding aroma of tender lamb gravy stir-fried in butter, as well as boiled carrots and peas that melted in the mouth.

Griffith instantly forgot all about exams, wars, evil gods, etc., and moved his hands one step ahead of his mind, passing through the long straight black hair that was as smooth as a waterfall, and along the fine cashmere school skirt. Stretching out the undulating curves, holding her slender waist, slowly and irresistibly turned her around, and hugged her into his arms.

"what……"

Galadia let out a cry, feeling a powerful scorching force enveloping herself, a wave of heat passed over her long pointed ears, and rubbed against her earlobe.She only felt that she was lifted up by the strength in her waist, and just when her toes stood on tiptoe, her slender legs began to tremble slightly, and she was dragged into the almost fainting stimulation little by little.

Griffith turned her around, only to see that her agile eyes were blurred.He gently rubbed the fragrant and smooth hair tip, sniffed his cheek, and kissed carefully on the swan-like neck.

The snow-white neck immediately became flushed.

Even though she hadn't done anything yet, Galadia felt that her body was about to burn.She wanted to resist, but she just subconsciously raised her hands and grasped the powerful arms that hugged her. Her consciousness was about to fly away from her body, and her dizzy mind was blank.Moreover, she still felt thirsty, so she couldn't help raising her head, and unconsciously licked her delicate red lips.

Just once is fine, just lightly...

Galadia raised her head, raised her body a little more, and offered her delicate cherry lips.The moment the lips were touched, the crackling fire in the fireplace sprang up like a volcanic eruption.

"Don't!..." A sob of resistance came from the blocked red lips.Galadia trembled all over.

Griffith felt himself drowning in a wave of pleasure.With a little force from him, the girl was pushed down on the dining table by him.

"Ah, no!"

Then, she passed out.

"???"

Ah, this?
Griffith was taken aback.

Galadia collapsed beside the pot of mutton, completely lost consciousness, and it took a long time to recover from the fainting.

"Well, are you okay?" Griffith was sure that he hadn't done anything yet, but why did the situation become like this.

Miss Elf managed to break free from his arms, glanced at him shyly and lowered her eyes hastily.She pulled her torn school skirt and fled to the second floor quickly.

……

"Emmm..."

Excited and baffled, Griffith sat down at the dining table, pondering over what the situation was as he thought about it.

Galadia's dinner is really delicious!Even the banquet at the Earl's Mansion doesn't have such a rich taste that almost makes the soul soar.

I'm such a sinful person~ Could it be that I saved the world in my previous life to cultivate this good fortune?
Griffith ate quickly.He vaguely heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom upstairs, and his eyes wandered around unconsciously, landing on the crystal cup at the corner of the dining table.

This beautiful mug has slid to the edge of the table, any more and it will have to fall to the floor.The almost black liquid in the cup does not look like coffee, but there are still small bubbles, exuding a curious taste.

Must be something to drink!Griffith grabbed the glass and took a sip.

Oh--!
A novel taste that has never been seen before pops up in the throat with the bubbles, and there is just the right amount of sweetness in the coldness, which makes people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts!

"What is this! How can it make people so happy!"

Griffith squealed like a hamster.Then he heard a sound on the stairs, and Galadia came down from it.

"Hahaha, do you act in dramas every day?" The girl smiled like a blooming peach blossom, and there was a wave of spring water in her bright eyes.She changed into a dress and came to sit next to Griffith: "I've been wanting to try it since you told me about carbonated drinks!"

The knowledge of carbonated drinks comes from ancient stone tablets found under the Turan Swamp.After that, Griffith just told Galadia as an anecdote, but she didn't expect her to really take it seriously.

"The raw material is a mixture of water and carbon dioxide, coriander and lime, and honey!" Galadia leaned over, squeezed Griffith's face away, and took a small sip, "Isn't it extraordinary? ! You can add a business scope to your bootlegging business! It will be a big sale in the future!"

"That's right!" Griffith said, shaking the crystal glass, "but the taste is so wonderful, I feel it's a waste to drink it for these rough embryos. I'll give you half of the shares in the red wine business!"

"Let's call it Galadia and Griffith Beverage Store from now on!" Galadia clapped her hands, "Will you make breakfast tomorrow? What time can you have it?"

Oh?Galadia is coming to my place for breakfast, so I have to prepare well... Griffith thought for a while and said, "Seven o'clock."

Miss Elf pointed to the big box in the corner: "I put some clothes and supplies in that box, please put them away for me later."

"No problem, I'll go now."

Is Galadia going to put some things here with me?Well, not much, my basement is quite spacious.Griffith immediately got up to pick up the box and walked to the basement.As soon as he reached the stairs, Miss Elf suddenly caught up with him and took his arm, turned around half a circle, and walked to the second floor.

"Put the coat in the closet, and put the shirt in the low cabinet~" Galadia bouncingly pushed open the door, "Look at the bedroom I decorated!"

The original monochromatic bed has been replaced by a white back mattress, the floor is covered with fine woolen blankets, and the curtains have been replaced with fine goods.Miss Elf jumped up barefoot, sat on the edge of the soft bed and bounced, reaching out to pat her side.

"I tore down the original bed and replaced it with a bigger double bed!"

"..."

Griffith was stunned: "Why do you need a double bed? Do you want to sleep in my bedroom?"

"I sleep in your bedroom for granted~"

……

Homemonwarts has one day off a week.For smoky students who are busy with more than a dozen courses each semester, this day is also an important day for making up homework and shopping.

Griffith turned over on the floor, opened his eyes, and saw Miss Elf lying on the edge of the bed, sleeping in a narrow gap, and was about to roll down and slap him on the face.The white arm slipped from the quilt, just a few centimeters in front of his line of sight.

When we were on an adventure together before, Galadia's sleeping posture was quite dignified, why did she roll around while sleeping on the bed?Griffith smiled, trying to put the girl's arms back under the covers.

Those hands are so pretty...

It's kind of weird to say, but Griffith was excited.He slowly rubbed over.

Oh--!This feeling is really wonderful. Although I haven't tried it before, it really makes people unable to stop!

Griffith felt a shudder in his fingers, and curled up slightly.He let go of his fingertips, rubbed his face against the smooth back of his hands, and raised his head again.

"what--"

Galadia buried her head under the pillow and let out a beautiful moan that she couldn't tell whether it was pain or pleasure.Griffith was encouraged, and continued to touch and kiss gently...

Miss Elf let out a cry of surprise, bit the sheet with her mouth, withdrew her hand, clenched her fist and hit Griffith on the head.

"Boom!"

……

"Cases of destroying machines occur frequently, and the authorities dispatched military police!"

"The "Grain and Textile Trade Act" has come into effect, the provinces and dominions are exempted from tariffs, and many places welcome the price reduction of textiles and agricultural products."

Since the army conquered the eastern and southern provinces, grain and minerals have been loaded with cargo ships and sent to all parts of the world every day.Griffith thought of the black bread that he ate more than a year ago that could be used as a murder weapon, and looked at the breakfast of small cakes and fried eggs on the table, and felt that the quality of his diet had indeed improved a lot.

However, Roland's machine was not very popular.According to the newspapers, his invention did increase productivity, but it also reduced the demand for weavers, miners, and workers of all kinds. Unwilling unemployed workers appeared everywhere to destroy the machinery.

Earl Roland has repeatedly emphasized that unemployment is temporary, and the expansion of production will lead to a larger market and better material life.God knows how many people will listen to it.

If it wasn't for me being so overwhelmed by the exam, I would be quite happy living like this.

"Why are you groping here and there again~"

Miss Elf came behind Griffith in her nightgown.Her steps were very light, and she came behind Griffith gracefully like a cat. She put her slender arms on his shoulders, stroked the woolen coat, and hugged him gently.

"Since you're not reading, try on the clothes. I'll check the size and take them to the clothing store for you."

"Oh—!" Griffith hastily put down the newspaper and stood up, "Unexpectedly, I can play the newlyweds game with you again. I must be blessed by saving the world in my previous life."

Galadia smiled and gave him a white look, took a coat that was still being modified, and some other materials, and gestured at him.

As an officer and knight of the Imperial Guard, Griffith can receive new winter clothes in winter.The official did not issue a uniform to him, but directly gave woolen, wool, gold thread, buttons and a lot of clothing materials plus a sum of money, and he ordered suits and cloaks himself.

The new coat was supposed to be made two weeks ago, but Griffith was out on a mission and delayed the final fitting.

Galadia helped him take off his coat and put on a new sample: "Try this dark blue one again. You are a knight now, you can't just wear a military uniform. Leave it to the tailor today, and you should be able to get the ready-made clothes before the Frost Festival." .”

Griffith turned around in front of the full-length mirror and felt fine:
"You really have a good eye. The young nobles in the capital all wear this style to the evening parties. I heard that there is a nobleman who wears a blue coat and medals every night to go around the court."

The girl didn't answer his words, her fingers were running along the neckline to her arms, and then stroking her broad shoulders and back.The soft touch has an indescribable magic power, which penetrates the gentle experience into the bottom of my heart little by little.

Griffith sighed heavily: "It would be great if we don't have to fight."

The girl smiled and complained softly: "Yes, there are endless battles, and you are not missing. How nice it is to stay with me in Homeworth!"

"It would be even better if there were no exams."

"It's your own fault that you don't have time to study. Even though you have returned from the front line, you have to go back and waste two weeks."

Galadia took Griffith's arm and turned him so that he could take a closer look at the coat of arms, the ribbons, and the pendants and flower tassels on the cloak.

"Your human military uniforms are pretty nice too~ It's much better than the black coat you wore when we first met. If you compare it, that one looks old and stiff."

"Please don't say that about the first set of good clothes I bought with almost all my property at the time!" Griffith puffed up his chest, "I really like it, and I'm taking good care of it now."

"Ah, the man is really nostalgic~" Miss Elf nodded, and said quietly, "I know you can't forget Krista."

"..."

This, how does this continue.

Griffith felt himself start to sweat. There must be too much charcoal on the fire in the room.He even felt that the charming hands on the neckline were tightening, about to strangle him.

"I'm going to name my daughter Krista!" Griffith used his brains and quickly took up the topic.

Galadia, who was tightening her boyfriend's neckline tightly, froze for a moment. She raised her head and moved her long pointed ears in doubt.Before she could speak, Griffith added another sentence:
"In the future, I can introduce to others--

"This is the little girl, Krista, the birth rate has not dropped this year!"
