I Want To Be a Nobleman
Chapter 66
Harold had a complicated dinner, slept, and had a dream. He dreamed that the capital of fire was destroyed by a burning meteorite. Marcus died under the hands of the legendary elves. He was tortured by the Archmage.
Harold woke up pale and panting. The scene in the dream should not happen, but he still had lingering palpitations and couldn''t help feeling angry at the king of Prague and theona.
This trouble making king is not satisfied to be a king. Do you have to be the supreme emperor? Who''s going to fight it now?
Theona is also an idiot. It''s none of your business for other Asians and slaves to be bullied. You want to be a "Pacific policeman"? When the legendary strong man comes, don''t make fun of him and help persuade him.
After a hurried breakfast, Harold was ready to go to talk to Fiona and clarify the causes and consequences, at least to dispel her idea of starting a war for the slaves.
Just as Harold was about to set out, a [northern rogue Knight] came to him to report the news that the dwarves in his territory "forging city" were filled with indignation when they heard of yesterday''s riot and wanted to see the Lord.
Harold had no choice but to take his ace bodyguard Lucius to this multi-ethnic mixed town inhabited by thousands of dwarves. Harold met with several representatives sent by dwarves and other races.
"Lord harlott, we think the kingdom should promote some Asian nobles. The number of Asian people in China is as high as hundreds of thousands. It is unreasonable that all of us are human beings! At least we should arrange a dwarf high-level as the Asian representative!"
Harold has a big head. Go and talk to the king of Prague. What answer can I give you? Dwarves are different from those messy Asians. They must not be ignored.
Harold can only learn from the civil servants of his previous life, verbally speaking clearly, understand and rest assured, but he does not give any practical solutions and commitments.
The dwarf representative was dissatisfied with Harold''s answer and gave an ultimatum: "the dwarf king has sent a delegation to support us. The leader is the previous giant dwarf."
The half step legendary strong man who can show "God comes to earth"? It''s not necessary. You already have a lot of minerals! Isn''t it good to dig and strike iron at ease?
Harlott was also unable to stop the dwarf. The dwarves called him only to inform him of the matter, not to solicit opinions. Is he qualified to reject the dwarf King''s decision? The king of Prague has to bear it.
The dwarf king "maglu liquor" once killed three legendary dragons who coveted the wealth of the dwarves alone. The dwarf king, who was himself a legendary strong man, was strong enough to go against the sky after performing "high-level gods coming to earth". His strength and physique were the best in the continent. All the frost giants and five color dragons rolled aside and swung down with a hammer.
Harold set out with Lucius towards the "elf home", with thousands of thoughts on the road.
Slaves wanted to turn over and be free; Asians, especially dwarves, yearn for political status; The king of Prague hoped to weaken the influence of Marcus and use Marcus to drive away the Asians; The elves want to punish and warn those who hurt their people.
Various forces and demands are mixed together, and the situation has been completely chaotic.
This pool of muddy water must not be touched! This was Harold''s first thought. It had no direct connection with him.
"I am not Asian, slave, noble, Marcus... I am a friend and subordinate of Marcus!
Harold sighed, not to mention his previous life. In the past 15 years alone, he has been taken care of by Marcus. He has received no worse treatment than the noble children since childhood, and has won a huge territory.
Marcus was definitely the most damaged in this incident. He was the focus of direct conflict with Asians and slaves. There were the most Asians in his territory. On the surface, the capture of elves was also his responsibility. Whether it was the slave team or "Paradise Babylon" was under his jurisdiction.
How much trouble would Marcus face if I walked away?
If I help, what can I do and what are the risks I face?
Warcraft war horse is very excellent. Even Harold can "fully autonomous drive" outside the sky.
Dwarves have strong backing, which can not be countered by Colombo or any other human kingdom. We must not perfunctory deception. The promotion of dwarves can only be a wrangle over the level of status and territory, and it is impossible to veto it completely.
As the eastern province under the command of Marcus is a newly developed territory, the number of Asians is the largest. At that time, a piece of meat will be torn off and a large area of land will be ceded to the dwarves.
The spirit is to make an example of others. Neither Marcus, the person in charge on the surface, nor the mastermind behind the scenes will let go, but the scope of punishment and warning is very wide, ranging from large to small.
When it''s small, it''s OK to apologize and kill a few small people. When it''s big, it''s not impossible to say the battle of legend. With strength guarantee, the elves won''t suffer anyway.
The king of Prague himself is a legendary strong man and has a higher status. Marcus is difficult to compete with the king of Prague and is absolutely at a disadvantage in the political struggle.
There is no need to worry about the problem of slavery. In this era, slavery is unconditionally abolished. All nobles will stand on the same front, even Cleon, who was once a slave.
Besides, this is an internal affair of the country. What do the elves do? Tieona is a shit stirring stick. Don''t pay attention to it. After a while, both soft and hard must let tieona stay cool.
It doesn''t matter about the elves. I have a relationship with Alan. A few words of advice should make Marcus less trouble. After all, Marcus is trapped. There is another person behind the scenes. The elves are not stupid. They won''t let the real murderer punish the target on the surface.
After analyzing one by one, Harold felt that there were two main problems: how to divide the dwarf''s territory and how to deal with the suppression of the king of Prague.
King of Prague, he had no choice but to carry it by Marcus himself.
However, his relationship with the dwarves is OK. The dwarves in the "forging city" are very satisfied with his jurisdiction. As a piercer, Harold has advanced ideas and systematic "territory system" help. It is still good to govern the territory, which is much better than other nobles.
Here we have to introduce the new functions of the system, [territory management system] and [system store].
[territory "forging city"
Population: 32000+
Prosperity: 306 (higher)
System revenue: 3164 dinars per month
Garrison (non system forces): 200 regular forces, 500 militia
System building:
Blacksmith shop (efficiency of all blacksmith shops in the city + 10%, urban prosperity + 50)
Mine (the mining efficiency of surrounding auxiliary minerals is + 10%, and the urban prosperity is + 20. There is a chance to obtain associated minerals, which are directly put into urban warehouses.)
Wine cellar (increase the quality of wine produced in the city, prosperity + 30, randomly obtain high-quality wine every month, and directly transfer it to the urban warehouse)
Training ground (it can train noble arms and establish knights. At present, the number of noble recruits is 28.)]
[territory "Stan town"
Population: 6000+
Prosperity: 101 (low)
Income: 300 dinars per month
Garrison (non system forces): 11 regular forces 50 militias
System building: none]
[territory "Noah village"
Population: 800+
Prosperity: 18
Income: 22 dinars per month
Garrison (non system force): 12 militia
System building: none]
The territory management system was activated when Harold was 10 years old when the "forging city" was officially established.
In addition to the forging City, other small towns and villages are very chicken ribs, similar to the "Stan town" and "Noah village" above, with a combined income of more than 2000.
System buildings are virtual, there is no actual building, but the effect is very good, but the price is too expensive.
The construction cost is tens of thousands of dinars, and the construction cycle is as long as several months. In addition to the "forging city", the construction of buildings in other territories is simply a waste.
[system store: refresh all kinds of weapons and equipment groceries randomly every month, and you can recycle all kinds of goods produced by the system.]
The reason why harlott''s defense has been upgraded to 60 points is the new equipment bought through the system store.
His current equipment is [ox horn helmet + 20], [ogre gloves + 12], [iron shinguard + 23] and [worn sweater + 5].
The equipment of the system is very dark. Any body armor with more than 40 defense will cost tens of thousands of dinars. Of course, Harold is cruel and angry.
The reason why he still used such a shabby "old sweater" is that he spent his money on building towns and buying equipment for Rand.
Rand''s full set of equipment has 120 defense, that is, the crossbow and arrow hit, that is, it rubs a little skin. It feels a little "invulnerable". The whole equipment cost a total of 30000 dinars.
Different from those tool men and thugs NPC in the game, Harold loves Rand from the bottom of his heart. He is not only a brother, but also a son!
When the territory system was just activated, harlot''s income was far less than it is now. There were many fewer villages and towns. The few were poor territories with "very low prosperity", and the forging city had only a few hundred dollars of income.
The system can''t increase the population out of nothing to make the towns rich. It can only develop slowly over time. Harold, only 10, racked his brains to think of various ways to make the territory rich slowly.
The wealth began to increase slowly. There was no entity system. The wealth "Dinar" was a part, and the real gold coins were also greatly improved. Now harlott has an inventory of tens of thousands of gold coins, and its annual income is more than 10000.
It mainly depends on the income of the forging city. Other towns are barely out of the scope of relief and assistance. Not to mention the village. The village is poor and may not be able to pull out a gold coin.
In addition to building system buildings and spending in system stores, the dinars of the system also pay wages to the system forces.
In the past, there was no money. We fooled around with you by virtue of loyalty. Now that we have money, how can we say that we don''t pay wages in the past?
LV1''s commander can reduce his salary by 5%. A [rogue Knight] has a monthly salary of more than 100. Lucius, a level 60 [adventure hero], has a full 300. It doesn''t matter how many other soldiers add up.
This point harlot wanted to make complaints about the fact that the soldiers were loyal to the real gold coins and did not know anything about the system at all.
At first, Harold''s income was low enough to pay his salary, and they didn''t respond. It can be seen that those Dinar knights were not given to the Army soldiers at all, but the system was hacked!
Up to 1200 monthly salary! Harlot''s income of more than 5000 feels distressed. He can''t help adding skill points and attribute points to command and charm to reduce wages!
However, harlott held back, and now he has successfully saved 12000 dinars. The "forging city" is building a "building: market". It will be completed in a few months. This money can be used to buy equipment.
Harold is going to buy himself a 50 + defense good armor. At that time, he will also be a "invulnerable" man.
