I Want To Be a Nobleman

Harold informed Marcus and Kryon who had rushed back about the news of the Sun Scepter, and the three of them discussed how to act in Harold's castle.

"It's no wonder that the Kingdom of Chiat fell out with Lucanir and Babylon. The King of Prague should also know about it. No wonder he didn't contribute much in the later stages of this war!"

Through this incident, Marcus also understood what he thought was a little strange before, and Kryon was a little puzzled, "Since we found the Sun Scepter to unify the human race, why did we start a war instead?"

"From now on, everyone will be aristocrats of the empire, internal friction is meaningless!" Kryon's character is like this, he is too kind, he is not stupid, but not cruel enough, he is a commoner and there is a qualitative difference between him and the nobles, the earliest in the gladiatorial Because of this, he was deceived by Sarick and went around in circles, and he is still naive now.

Kryon still hasn't seen the greed and selfishness of the nobles. The atmosphere of the Corondo Kingdom is too good, everyone is busy opening up wasteland, and he is the second-ranked quasi-legendary powerhouse in Corondo. Who dares to mess with him? Influenced by the positive image of Marcus, it is natural that human nobles should be united and help each other.

Harold didn't explain anything, but Marcus sneered and said: "The cake is so big, if you want to share more, you must grab it from others, especially those big nobles, I guess I wish the little nobles could beat them." The strength is greatly damaged, and then they can only be their vassal nobles."

Harold also had a strong disgust in his heart. The internal fighting will never stop. Even if it is a great opportunity for the rise of human beings, they must calculate each other. The King of Prague will probably fight for the throne of the new empire emperor.

King Aldo is definitely not willing, coupled with the intervention of the other two kings, the war will definitely be fought in the dark, and the big nobles who know about it will definitely form their own camps and compete with each other, while those little nobles who don't know anything are going to fight against each other. is the most pitiful.

It is estimated that after the war is over and the distribution of benefits begins, they will understand the true purpose of this war. At that time, the army and supplies will be greatly depleted, and their strength will decline. After the establishment of the new empire, their titles will be the lowest, and their territories will also be forcibly taken back. few.

Kryon felt a little uncomfortable. He inherited the blood of the orcs, and he didn't hate wars. Moreover, because he had a strong sense of justice as a hero, he was even a little proud to fight to defend the country and the people.

But now he knew that his battle was just a power struggle between those kings and great nobles, and it didn't matter whether he won or lost, which made him sick like eating a dead fly.

"Then what should we do, make this matter public? Let the nobles sit down and have a good talk?" Kryon put forward a very naive idea.

Harold immediately retorted: "No, how many people will we offend if we tell this matter? Besides, Earl Ramon told me this information. It's not a big deal for me to disclose it to you, but I'm too sorry to announce it. Blinded!"

Marcus also objected to the announcement, and persuaded: "Kryon, don't care about others, and don't feel sorry for other nobles! Only when you are strong can you have more right to speak, and only in a high position and powerful can you really change this corrupt society. nation!"

Harold was a little touched when he heard this sentence. It seems that Marcus and Kryon have not only been busy opening up wasteland these years, but Kryon, who was once a slave and a mixed-race civilian, and the upright and brave Marcus are also very interested in the current situation. The aristocracy is somewhat dissatisfied.

But as Marcus said, the rules can only be changed if they have enough strength, and this war is their best chance to accumulate strength and strengthen their strength!

Marcus is the core of the three. Although he is not as good as Kryon in terms of personal strength, and he is not as good as Harold in terms of elite combat power, the huge army of tens of thousands of people and the super high status of the second in command of the Kingdom of Corondo make him Qualified to be a leader.

Marcus put forward the core point: "Since a new empire will be established in the future, the outcome of this war is not important, and we don't need to devote ourselves to it. It is enough to show our strength to shock others. The most important thing is to take the opportunity to grow! Military exploits Not worth mentioning at all, the formation of the new empire will not recognize any merits of the civil war!"

The reason why the nobles of the various kingdoms are willing to lead troops out of the station is out of interest, and who is willing to lose troops and generals and consume food and money to fight with just a word from the king.

The nobles all share the fruits of victory in order to obtain military exploits, such as attacking the Kingdom of Corondo. In the end, Corondo sued for peace and ceded the territory and the right to open up wasteland. The more nobles who sent troops and food, the more they got.

Even Korundo, who is at a disadvantage, can't bear to surrender. Whoever contributes more will cut less meat. It is also possible to cede all your territory to the enemy without participating in the war.

The establishment of the new empire will naturally integrate the territories and resources of several kingdoms, and then reshuffle the cards to distribute the benefits. Who cares what merits you made in the previous wars? Everyone is a noble of the same country. You still have credit for beating yourself. ?

Harold immediately gave his suggestion: "Now is a rare opportunity to expand the population. The Kingdom of Corondo has a large number of war refugees, and there are also many cheap slaves in other countries!"

"Even if the establishment of the new empire will re-divide interests, as long as we are strong enough, the original territory can be preserved like the people! And the more population and the more troops, the more we can guarantee our strength and let us have enough words right!"

The lives of civilians in this world are thinner than paper, but when the number increases, the influence it brings is also great. Among other things, the army can expand according to the increase in population, and taxes can increase with the increase in population. It is very important.

The three of Harold discussed for a long time, and came up with a plan for the future. With the strength of the three of them, they have the opportunity to become an independent faction in the new empire.

The three of them led the most elite troops to the front line together. In just a few days, they bravely defeated several noble families, and then withdrew from the front line and returned to the Kingdom of Corondo on the grounds of recuperation.

The combined strength of the three of them is indeed very strong. Cleon's quasi-legendary combat power is almost invincible. Marcus and Harold are equally strong. They can be regarded as the top level of the kingdom's nobles, not to mention the soldiers under them. Let all the nobles know that apart from the legendary king, the Kingdom of Corondo has another force that is not easy to provoke.

The alliance formed by Harold has fully demonstrated its strength, and continuing to fight is just a waste of time and troops. The move to withdraw from the battlefield surprised the King of Prague, but after a brief confrontation between him and Marcus, the King of Prague I understood that Marcus and the others knew the truth, but they didn't say anything.

Harold's trading metropolis plan is progressing smoothly. Marcus and Kryon are relatively short of food, and their ability to accommodate refugees is not as good as Harold's. Harold has accepted more than 10,000 civilians in just half a month.

The ransom from the two nobles was also sent. Harold didn't dare to continue to owe Leonard's gold coins, so he paid back the money. The remaining 20,000 gold coins continued to be invested in the construction of the "Trade Capital". Now the basic plan is completed , began to expand a little bit, and the surrounding villages were also established.

Those human slaves happen to be free coolies, and Harold also gave rewards. The best part of the slaves who work every month can be exempted from slave status and gain freedom. The labor efficiency of slaves has been greatly improved, and the road has begun to open .

The winged slaves sent here are all beauties. Harold originally wanted to send these slaves to Sha Duoer. The new empire must be a human country, and there is no room for demihumans to live. Just keep these winged girls Being a slave girl is a bit of a waste.

But these Wingman slaves were very unwilling. When they learned that Harold was going to send them to the Wingman Kingdom, they cried and refused. They didn't feel the joy of returning home freely.

The Yiren dynasty is really not a place where weak people like them who have nothing but beauty can survive. As beauties in the human kingdom, their greatest value is not in labor or fighting. They don't have to worry about life danger or fatigue. Don't worry, there's nothing unacceptable about working while lying down.

Harold thought about it, and Sha Duo'er did not lack this kind of waste who would seduce men with light and no fighting ability. They also bought many slaves of other races, the main body being human beings, and started doing "club business".

After the war, all foreign shops in the Kingdom of Corondo were closed, and "Paradise Babylon" was no exception. Harold didn't shy away from it, and directly relied on his status as a nobleman to bring down a large number of "private clubs" in the surrounding territories.

From Harold's own territory to Marcus's and Cleon's territories, all branch stores have been opened. Don't mention it, they are really making money. Thousands of gold coins have been brought in within a month. This is still busy with the nobles and knights. The reason why wars are not often used for consumption.

No wonder the nobles behind "Paradise Babylon" are so rich. This business is indeed very profitable. This also made Harold pay attention to the various chambers of commerce in the territory. Most of them are relatives and friends of former territorial officials, and many nobles They all have connections.

Harold cleaned up the officials in the territory, but he really ignored these guys. He immediately promulgated new laws and began to levy taxes. Many chambers of commerce left angrily, and Harold directly asked his own chamber of commerce to send someone to take over.

In the long run, this kind of behavior is wrong. If the business wants to develop, it cannot be completely controlled by the ruler alone. It will lose its vitality and competitiveness, and it will be difficult to thrive. But Harold is short of money now, so he can only do this first. Dry.

Marcus is going all out to develop agriculture. Except for some necessary jobs, most of the civilians in the territory are forced to reclaim the land. He also spends a lot of money to invite sun priests to help perform magic. The food production in the territory has greatly increased, etc. Next year, it is estimated that there will be no need to worry about insomnia for food.

Kryon took the "Ancient Dragon Egg" given by Harold, that is, the egg of friendship with the Archduke Lance to find the Archduke Lance, and asked him for special training. Kryon was far from the legendary level, but he became After he died, he could briefly fight against the legendary powerhouse.

It is difficult to improve his strength again, but it is definitely beneficial for the Grand Duke of Lance to give him advice. The Grand Duke of Lance has been slowly getting up in the middle of the war, and he has a lot of free time. With the egg of friendship as a stepping stone, and some gifts, Cleon successfully impressed the Grand Duke of Lance.

Grand Duke Lance is not interested in being the great emperor of the new empire. With his strength and prestige, he doesn't have to worry about the distribution of benefits. He just happens to be interested in giving advice to Cleon, who has extraordinary potential.
