The Strongest Lord: Rise from the Knights

Chapter 56 Sunset Star
In Qingping County, above the land occupied by Lin Chen.

In the past few days, Lin Chen finally stopped and did not continue to aggressively attack the rest of the territory.

On the contrary, during this period of time, he paid attention to civilian affairs.

In order to let the civilians in these territories know that their new lord is not a tyrant.

Lin Chen had already issued two government orders.

First, exempt civilians from all taxes for half a year!
Within half a year, civilians do not need to pay any taxes whether they cultivate land, work or engage in business.

The second is to take out some of the land of the local nobles and distribute some to the common people, so that the common people can grow food on these lands.

As for the income, it will be dealt with in [-]%, of which the common people get [-]%, while those local nobles can only get [-]%.

As for the second decree, Lin Chen had just issued it not long ago.

He was immediately opposed by several knight-level nobles.

But Lin Chen ignored them at all.

After all, the territory occupied by these people is really too big.

The territory is large and the family members are few.

Therefore, for these local nobles, many lands are vacant.

I would rather my own land be vacant than give some to civilians.

That's why Lin Chen issued this decree to require the nobles to share their land.

Of course, Lin Chen would not treat them badly.

As long as it was a noble who distributed the land to the common people, Lin Chen remembered it all, and even took out some silver coins as rewards.

As for these silver coins, how much Lin Chen still has left.

There is no need to worry about this, because

in a room.

At this moment, Lin Chen was listening to his sergeant report a sorted list.

"Master, after we sorted it out carefully."

"Right now, in our inventory, there are already as many as 21 silver coins! As for the various treasures other than silver coins, these things can also be worth about 25 silver coins."

"In addition, a total of two third-order magic crystals, fifteen second-order magic crystals, and more than 110 first-order magic crystals were harvested."

In general, the harvest is quite big.

Because, when attacking the territory in the previous days.

Don't forget, Lin Chen will seize half of the property of the local nobles.

It is more reasonable for Lin Chen to search for such wealth if all five territories are added up.

But of course, in fact, what Lin Chen was most concerned about was not silver coins and treasures.

What really made him care.

Or only the magic crystal!

"Just so many magic crystals? Well, I guess that's the only way to go. After all, magic crystals are not necessary items for those nobles, so they usually don't store too many magic crystals in their homes."

"But with this little magic crystal, it seems that it can only convert about [-] to [-] energy points in total, right?"

Ten or twenty thousand?

For this amount, if it was several days ago, Lin Chen would definitely feel satisfied and even quite excited about it.

But now
There is no way, because Lin Chen's current goal is to recruit a team of Eagle Cavaliers!

Eagle Knight, this type of arms is not as cheap as the warrior and attendant arms.

Just a knight needs to spend 300 energy points to recruit.

Because of this, Lin Chen felt that these magic crystals were not enough at all.

"Well, it's troublesome. And now the situation in the kingdom is in chaos. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to buy magic crystals with silver coins, unless you go to the county."

"But the county town, can I go now?"

Go to the county seat?
Just kidding, the current Jacques family hates Lin Chen to death.

If Lin Chen or his men dared to go to Qingping County.

Then the Jacques family will definitely retaliate wildly against them!

As for the rest of the counties.

Lin Chen thought for a while, but he also felt that this seemed to be a solution.

"Qingping County is too dangerous to go to. At worst, I will go to other counties. Anyway, I have plenty of time now."

Just like that, Lin Chen had already made the decision.

So, after asking the opinions of the noble subjects under his command again.

Lin Chen then decided to go to Camo County City in person to participate in the triennial auction held by the largest Chamber of Commerce in Camo County.

In fact, Lin Chen didn't really want to go to Kamo County.

After all, it was there, but there was a Gutenhope who had some hatred for him.

But this auction, listen to what the noble subjects under his command say.

That's really interesting, almost everything will appear in the auction.

Because, the organizer of this auction is the Sunset Star Chamber of Commerce!
Moreover, the power of this chamber of commerce is huge, even the Jacques family and the Garten family are absolutely inferior!
But why, since the Sunset Star is so powerful, does it have to submit to the auction in Cameron County?

The reason is also very simple, because the Sunset Star Chamber of Commerce in Cameron County is just a branch.

As for where the headquarters of Sunset Star is, no one of Lin Chen's noble subjects knows.

Not even the headquarters, even such a branch.

Those nobles also know only a few.

And these branches are all scattered in the Liuhuo Kingdom.

There will not be a phenomenon that several adjacent counties have Sunset Star Chamber of Commerce.

"Sunset Star? Tsk tsk, this name is very interesting."

"An auction held every three years? Well, since that's the case, then I really need to go and see it."

Thinking of this, Lin Chen had already made some plans.

This trip to Cameron County.

He only needs to bring a few Eagle Squadron Leaders and Baron Sail.

The others all stayed on the territory under their own command.

Just like that, in the afternoon of that day.

Lin Chen directly wanted to take these people to Kamo County City.

It's just that what he didn't expect was.

Just when he was about to leave Blood Ville Castle.

A relatively beautiful figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Chen and the others.

I saw that person, wearing a beautiful white dress, with long yellow hair, although his figure was not superb, it was definitely considered to be of the upper-middle level.

Such a beautiful woman, who else could it be?

"Lisa!"

"Why did you come out? Haven't you been practicing with that existence?"

Seeing this, Lin Chen was slightly surprised.

But what really surprised me was not Lisa's appearance and why she appeared here.

What he was really surprised by was the aura of mana on this person!

Lin Chen, who is the attendant of the magic swordsman, of course he can clearly perceive it.

Today's Lisa may have stepped into the ranks of junior magicians!
In such a short period of time, he was promoted from a magician apprentice to a junior magician.

Among them, this Lisa probably really benefited a lot from that great magician.

"Why, can't I come out?"

"By the way, I heard that you are going to participate in some auction, right? I'm going too, and I also want to buy some magician's equipment."
