Chapter five hundred and seventy-four, I handed Ryan over to you, ma'am
The hot summer wind blew on the roadside of the Earl Glamorgan's collar. In the pavilion of the beautiful Ladies' Garden, Ryan, Surya and the fairy in the lake sat together and drank afternoon tea. I want to - free - watch - complete - complete - please - Baidu - search -
The dark elf Olika sat next to Ryan and helped him to serve tea and water. Suliya's maid and castle maid Sylvia stood behind Suliya. The maid stared at Ryan with some misjudgment, and finally turned away with a red face.
"Ryan, then you will not have any problem if you throw the army away, right?" Suliya sat down gently. The female knight was a little worried about it. The new land of Musilon was, and Ryan rushed back. There must be his own reasons. Suliya felt a little guilty, because at this time, Ryan's best choice was to stay in Musilon to preside over the overall situation.
"There won't be any problem." Ryan smiled and shook his head, and he turned his eyes to the distant sky: "Don't forget that it is their land, and they will naturally do their best."
Since the enfeoffment had been distributed, some people naturally dealt with the subsequent matters. Ryan threw down the army and rushed back to the castle. Many of the Knights' army remained in Musilon. The only six barons under him, only the Grand Baron Devon, Hex, returned to the Earl Glamorgan, and the remaining five barons, including Alfred, remained in Musilon.
Moreover, from another perspective, after following Ryan for many years, he deserves to give enough rewards.
"When are you going to succeed to the throne?" The fairy in the lake leaned lazily on the chair, and the goddess said with interest: "Will Richard die?"
"No, after all the things Musilon has been arranged, I will almost succeed to the throne." Ryan frowned. He felt the summer wind blowing through his face. The Duke sighed a little: "First of all, a canal runs through the north and south."
"Good idea, but you have to convince the Principality of Bastogne and the Principality of Boldro." The fairy in the lake reached out and brushed her long golden hair. Her long golden hair like a waterfall hanging directly to the ground. The goddess was wearing a pair of champagne-colored bow-heeled shoes, and her toes wrapped in flesh-colored stockings gently hooked the tips of her shoes and swayed back and forth. The fairy in the lake was indeed relieved to see that Ryan was willing to negotiate with Leonardo.
Of course, when it comes to land acquisition, the fairy in the lake is on Ryan's side, but the first Duke of Leonardae, "Great" Sirruf, also devoted his life to the Knight Kingdom. His life span of 350 years is endless battle. Now that the Principality of Leonardae is in such a dilemma, the goddess is also unbearable.
Sometimes this is true for all things in the world. The decisions of ordinary people will be influenced by emotional factors. As long as there is a fluctuation in emotions, it will be reflected into the subspace.
The canal is a very necessary matter, and this is Ryan's decision after thinking about it over and over again.
In the old world, there were crises everywhere and public security problems were serious.
Even the richest and most powerful Rick tribe in the empire was still covered with black forests, with wild orcs and green skins, and bandits who were infested. Although the emperor's army could continue to send troops to wipe out, hiking and trade were still dangerous.
The nobles of the Rick Territory also had a deep understanding of this. Starting from William III, the entire Rick Territory began large-scale canal excavation activities. Hundreds of native rivers and canals of various sizes formed the Rick Water System. All the large and medium-sized towns in the Rick Territory are connected by canals. The waterways are very wide and the sides are clear. In addition, the patrol of the Rick Navy has made water transportation a relatively safe travel and trade method.
Because of this, under the large area of reclamation, road construction, and improvement of planting along the river, a large number of free people and merchant classes in Rick's territory began to occupy the mainstream here, which led to the emergence of the citizen class.
Ryan also plans to dig a canal, which will connect the Gresmore River and the Sharon River, becoming the key to communicating between the north and the south.
But it can be imagined that this will inevitably be opposed. In addition to conservative forces, digging the canal will definitely affect the manors of all the nobles along the way. More importantly, the digging of the canal will also lead to the continued rise of the free people and the merchant class.
"Boldro should not object to you. After all, Boderick is very clear about what business has brought to him and his principality." The fairy in the lake held the Holy Grail in her hand, and the goddess continued to think: "As for Bastogne, most of the great nobles there are Holy Grail knights. With your current prestige, they will not object too much, as long as you can let them see the benefits."
"In fact, the biggest resistance comes from the conservative forces in the kingdom." Ryan nodded, and the duke was confident about it: "But no one can oppose me now, and this is the best time to do it in one go."
Suliya smiled for a while when she heard this, the female knight couldn't help but feel a little happy.
Indeed, after a series of wars and events, the conservative nobles of the Knight Kingdom are no longer able to oppose Ryan's will. Instead, they have to frequently ask for help from the nobles of the South.
For example, François, a cunning guy, just announced that he would lend a total of 15,000 kroner to the northern principalities. This money would be used to pay for the arrears of pensions, the cost of rebuilding towns and the cost of repairing castles. The annual interest rate is about 10%-15%. In addition, the southern nobles, including Ryan, opened the granary and prepared to provide food support to the north.
In this case, the conservative nobles could not stand up to oppose Ryan's decision.
Speaking of this, Sulia took the initiative to say: "Speaking of this, we have recently come to many Lyonasy serfs, especially many women, who are often stranded in bars and hotels."
After hearing this, Ryan smiled continuously. Staying was a erratic statement. It was extremely difficult to survive in Lyonaise. The liberal class in Ryan's territory is now rising, and even the serfs have a lot of spare money and surplus grain in their hands. It is not surprising that a large number of female serfs from Lyonaise will make a living here.
"Hmph~" Sylvia, the headmaid behind Sulia, snorted disdainfully. The headmaid was a little unhappy: "I think we should deport them all!"
"There is a market when there is demand." Ryan didn't care much about this: "Even if they are driven out, as long as there is a market, there will be others. It doesn't make sense for us to do this."
"The master is right." The dark elf brought the pastry into Ryan's mouth. When the dark elf saw Ryan back, he was in a very good mood: "There will be someone else to come, and this cannot fundamentally solve the problem. This is the nature of a mortal."
"But if this continues..." Sylvia still doesn't like these outsiders very much.
"You will get used to it in the future." Ryan said with a smile: "Not to mention the distance, the knights under my command are very favored by the female nobles of Lyonnas. After the recapture of Musilon, many female nobles expressed their willingness to marry. For example, the Baron Devon, who came back with me this time, had a countess who fell in love with him. In addition to Hex, there were many other female nobles who were willing to marry. Many rangers were trapped in the trouble of happiness, and many kingdom knights found that they could marry the daughter of the baron or even the daughter of the Earl family."
"This is too... strange, right?" Sylvia blushed after hearing this: "The Baron's daughter is married to a Ranger Knight or something?"
"But this is the reality." Sulia smiled gently, "Marriage helps stability, and large-scale marriages between your knights and Lyonaes will also help promote the integration of aristocrats. This is good news. We should encourage the knights to marry more."
"Um!"
Everyone chatted for a while, and the afternoon tea time, which was also Suliya's daily "letting time" ended. With Sylvia's support, Suliya returned to her room to rest.
Before leaving, the female knight held the fairy in the lake and her husband. She put the goddess's little hand into Ryan's big hand. The female knight said seriously: "My lady, I'll hand it to you during this period. You must help me take good care of him!"
"Don't worry! Suliya, leave it to me!" The fairy in the lake had a smile on her face, and the goddess's face was indescribable: "I won't give those bird pools outside a little chance!"
"Then please." Suliya smiled sweetly, and she turned to Ryan and said, "Did you hear it? My husband, you must get along well during this period!"
"Uh..." The Duke felt a little frustrated. He opened his mouth and under Sulia's sharp gaze, he could only nod as if he gave in: "I understand."
"Then I'll go to rest, Ryan, you're tired when you come back." The female knight said understandingly: "Go and take a shower and have a good rest. The lady will have dinner with us in the evening."
"Please follow me, master." The dark elf's eyes shone brightly: "Let me serve you to bathe."
"Okay!" Ryan didn't say anything more, and he followed the dark elves toward the bathroom in the castle.
………I am the dividing line of bathing…………
At the same time, the Old World, the southern countries outside the sea.
A huge fleet was sailing above the ocean.
This is a very well-equipped and well-trained army, almost everyone wearing high-quality armor, and under the scorching summer sun, they are arranged neatly on the deck to guard against all possible threats.
On the ship's flag, an eagle claw reborn from the fire came to life.
A powerful warrior with a very tall and soft silver hair without split ends was standing at the bow of the ship. He was wearing a set of ancient sage full-body vibrating plate armor with the first generation of Demon Toad Lord and Croke himself blessed. He held a golden power sword "Glory" in his hand, and a snake god pendant made of gold hung on his chest. The Sotigo spear was tied behind him, and the spear had the breath of the snake god on it.
The fleet's sea ships have deep waterlines, and it is obvious that they are not just because they are loading a lot of troops.
"Legislative Commander, we will probably arrive in Magrit in another week." Pedro Alvarado, the commander of the first company of the Ashes, came behind the Legislative Commander, and his tone was filled with excitement: "I finally returned to the old world!"
"Pedro, you are an Estalia. Do you think we can recruit enough recruits in Estalia?" Fogen asked casually at the turbulent ocean.
"Estalia has never lacked people who leave their hometowns. People here have always had a tradition of adventure, my Legion Commander." Pedro nodded: "The key is, Legion Commander, what level of recruits you want."
"There is not much time left for us. I hope to recruit new recruits with the power of fighting." Fugen frowned after hearing this.
There is not much time left for this world. If you want to recruit a group of recruits who don’t know anything to start from scratch, you don’t know how long it will take.
The great first-generation demon toad, the great Lord Croke, was resurrected under the power of the emperor.
Its resurrection brought new hope to the servants of the ancient saints. Crock knew how to rebuild the destroyed and lost ancient saint cities. Crock knew how to repair and sacred the polluted hatching pools. The first generation of the Great Lord of the Demon Toad predicted that before facing the threat of chaos, the servants of the ancient saints must give priority to solving the threat of the Scarven rats.
The Ashes Legion suffered heavy losses in a series of previous wars. Fugen decided to lead 3,000 people back to the old world to recruit new troops. With the financial support of the Lizardmen, Fugen decided to recruit 30,000 to 50,000 new troops and form a new expeditionary army.
"It's hard for Estalia to recruit new recruits with the power of battle," Pedro continued: "We are going to Tyriel to recruit new recruits."
"Where are Brittania and the Empire? They are the most powerful countries in the old world, right?" Fogen said with interest: "Why not go to those two places?"
"The knights of Brittania are the most powerful heavy cavalry army in the old world, but they generally do not accept employment. If you want to hire them, you must have excuses to let them go, such as the Red Flame Expedition and the Arabian Holy War." Pedro said: "As for the empire, the army there is not impossible to hire, but to find a way, I wonder if the legion commander has an acquaintance in the empire?"
"If you don't have an acquaintance, it will be difficult?" Fugen laughed. It seemed that this was the case everywhere.
"Yes." Pedro nodded.
"What about Tyriel?"
"In Tyriar, many people are willing to fight, as long as the price is right," Pedro said. "We can recruit humans, dwarves, elves, ogres and even greenskins and undeads in Tyriar, as long as we have money."
"Green skin..." Fugen shook his head with a wry smile: "Let's forget about Green skin."
"If the Legion Commander really needs it, we can even recruit soldiers from the Prince of the Border. The people there are very strong combat power, but equally, the people there are also a group of vicious, undisciplined and moral scum." Pedro continued: "In addition, if we are lucky enough, we can also recruit Kislov's winged cavalry. Those people are willing to take on everything as long as they are not fighting humans and dwarves. However, because they are bound by the oath of the winged cavalry, it is not yet clear whether they are willing to follow us on an expedition."
"Let's recruit new troops in Estalia and Tyriel first!" Fogen finally made the decision: "By the way, I'm going to meet my brothers in Brittania, too."
"I have a gift to them."
