The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 610 Dealing with the situation

Hu Yan owns two castles, and according to the information of Polcha and Manid, most of them are players or traversers. NPCs are just the city guards guarding the city, and the traversers have become the main force of the army. Those special forces It is equipped with special equipment and weapons of special arms that have only appeared in the game world in recent years. It seems that this world is quietly changing.

Zhang Qiang flipped through the information, while Polcha and Manide stood aside.

Wei Wuji walked in, found a random place and sat down, holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, resting his chin on the back of his hand, staring at Zhang Qiang as he dealt with the matter.

After a long time, he asked: "How about the Countess Fang Ziyi and Viscount Lewis who were released by you, now the entire Swadia kingdom is reunified and the civil war is over, they are the confidantes of Queen Isona , doesn't Aisona have any arrangements for them?"

Zhang Qiang said with a smile, "Why are you so anxious about them? Could it be that you are interested in her?"

Wei Wuji chuckled, "How dare I be interesting, who doesn't know that Fang Ziyi is your man, the woman who stole the protagonist, my supporting role has not been eaten up, the bones are ground into powder, and mixed into the feed bag to feed cattle and sheep."

Zhang Qiang threw a roll of parchment on the table, sniffed it with his hand under his nose, turned his head and glanced at Borza and Manid, then waved his hands, "Go down, and report if there is any situation," then With a wave, the guards guarding the living room also exited the bedroom.

The maid brought over a rough ceramic basin, which was filled with clear well water, and it was a little cold to touch. Zhang Qiang immediately felt his spirit return to him in an instant, and his mind became sober. The situation in the subcontinent made my dizzy mind come alive.

After receiving the burlap towel brought by the maid, Zhang Qiang wiped his face and hands vigorously until they were clean, then said to the maid: "Go down, don't approach the living room unless called."

"Yes" the maid dressed as a European woman, Yingying curtseyed, stood up and tidied up, and exited the room.

Wei Wuji's eyes followed Zhang Qiang's body and movements slowly, and waited until Zhang Qiang finished all the movements before saying enviously: "Corrupt enough, depraved enough!"

Zhang Qiang sat down in his seat, "What is corrupt enough, depraved enough, just enjoy it, think about it as a wage earner, to be able to enjoy such a life, that is also the result of our hard work, a real life, not like Some people, relying on the shadow of their parents, are domineering."

Wei Wuji lowered his head and smiled and said, "Don't say that grapes are sour because you can't eat grapes. Timing, fate, and other people's hard work have created their life like that. Don't blame the sky or the earth, just blame yourself for not being able. There are many people who have worked hard to become the richest man, the key is to look at your own destiny and the ability to grasp the opportunity, you can be regarded as grasping the opportunity, and then rely on your own efforts to create a brilliant life."

Zhang Qiang nodded, "Well, it makes sense, but I'm still not reconciled. My status and identity are nothing in the real world. I guess a co-op or an assistant foreman at a construction site would despise me. Because I have no roots in the real world."

Wei Wuji, "Don't be dissatisfied. No one is so noble and prominent. Look at those officials who lose their power. They are not just ordinary people. When they lose their souls, they are worse than ordinary people like us. Look at those who fell from a high place. The company’s executives and managers are all mentally ill, and you also belong to the kind of poor, arrogant, but full of humbleness.”

Zhang Qiang wanted to say something else, but Wei Wuji raised his hand to stop Zhang Qiang from continuing the topic, and said to Zhang Qiang: "Zhang Qiang, look, you live a good life here, but I am still living in the cowshed and the stables, do you think it is for me? I re-sealed a territory."

Zhang Qiang spread his hands, and said helplessly: "You said you want to be my knight, within my authority, you said you want to be a baron, I can't make the decision, you said you want a territory, even if it is a village territory, I will I can't be the master, don't look at such a big land, in fact, apart from buying two villas for my knights, soldiers, and servants, and a few pieces of wild land, I, the earl, can't do anything. Just like the officialdom in the real world, the appointment of officials of a certain level is in the higher-level agency, and my higher-level agency is King Harolds."

Wei Wuji's canonization as a baron was recommended by Zhang Qiang. He was originally granted a territory, a village, by King Halaus. Everything else is lost, so the barons and viscounts under him, the knights are not counted, even if they are lost, Zhang Qiang will regain their rights after regaining them.

In the past, whoever had territory, or where to go back, did not exist. The landlord was overthrown, and the land was redistributed, because Zhang Qiang didn't want to bother. Sen, handled all of these very well. That is Zhang Qiang's right, but when it comes to nobles, the high-ranking noble group is nominally loyal to the king, and they are the king's thugs and supporters. Those titles are also given by the king. Unlike Knights are given by various lords and nobles, and they have the right to canonize and withdraw.

So these things have to go to Harlaus, and it seems that King Harlaus obviously has no time to deal with the affairs of their little lords. The Kingdom of Swadia has just been unified, the civil war has ended, and a lot of things are waiting to be done. Just dealing with the conflicts between the new family and the old family, as well as the affairs and conflicts between Zhang Qiang, a newly emerging powerful figure, is enough for King Harolds to have a headache.

Zhang Qiang also has a series of troubles to deal with, and the biggest trouble is exactly the same as Wei Wuji's troubles. The Dherim City he occupies has not yet been canonized by King Harlaus, even if it was defeated by Zhang Qiang, but according to the rules, It needs the approval of the earl nobles and the canonization and conferment of the king. Otherwise, Zhang Qiang has only two choices, either not surrendering the territory and openly rebelling, or taking a little military expenses and bonuses from King Haraus and giving up the city of Dherim. Go back to Lana, which has been confirmed to be Zhang Qiang's territory, and the Kujit city that Zhang Qiang identified as the capital of the territory.

Since Viscount Tianci was captured by Zhang Qiang and betrayed Mrs. Aisona, his territory was also confiscated, and Zhang Qiang submitted the military merits of Viscount Tianci to King Halaus, as well as the merits he had obtained, which showed that he was fully qualified to renew Obtaining the canonization of the Viscount Nobility, as for the territory, you have to wait. After all, he surrendered and betrayed. In terms of name and character, he is not even more respectable than the lords of other kingdoms who were exiled. Sometimes, can you get The title also depends on your character. A person with a bad reputation, unless he is favored by the king, he cannot easily get a title of nobility that everyone wants, or even a fiefdom.

Fiefs are a scarce resource in the Calradia continent, otherwise it would not cause long-term wars. Some people think they should get territories, some lords think he should get more territories, and some nobles simply want wars and don’t want to Seeing that others have territories, or have more territories than oneself, is jealous.

Wei Wuji and Zhang Qiang have been together for so long, and have been in the game world for a long time. He will not fail to understand Zhang Qiang's current situation, and the two look at each other.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh." Ramosen led a messenger in and walked in. The messenger was wearing the armor and costume of a Swadia Kingdom rider. This is the family coat of arms of King Harlaus, a horseman of King Harlaus' family.

Like a dedicated steward, Ramosun said to Zhang Qiang: "My lord, this is the Xilin knight from Palaven, the king's messenger, and he brought the king's instructions about the ownership of Dherim City. "

Zhang Qiang gestured to the messenger with his eyes, and the Xilin knight spoke, and the Xilin knight raised his head, like a haughty British gentleman, his eyes were full of contempt, maybe he didn't have much respect for this serf-born nobleman, but he said in his mouth : "Honorable Earl Zhang Qiang, I have brought you the latest instructions from King Harolds."

Zhang Qiang nodded slightly, and said in a calm tone: "Tell me, I am the guardian of this castle, and I am also the person who recovered it from the enemy. Who does His Majesty the King think this castle should be sealed to?"

The Xilin knight took out a letter wrapped in silk from his arms, "I have to say, Honorable Earl Zhang Qiang, I admire your wisdom and bravery, and am amazed at the combat effectiveness of your army. Looking at it this way, he feels that your credit should be attributed to his arduous and long-term entanglement with the enemy under the city of Palavin. Without his entanglement, you might not be able to recover the city so quickly and easily. It is a very important commercial city for the Kingdom of Dia."

Hearing these words from Xilin Knight, Zhang Qiang knew that there might be many changes in Dherim City.

He didn't even bother to read the king's letter, and said to Ramosen, "Send the king's messenger back to the post to rest and wait for my news."

Ramosun was a very smart man, and he immediately stretched out his hand and said to the Cylinder knight, "Your Excellency, please follow me!"

The Cylinder knight looked around, and the convener said, "Your Excellency, the king is waiting for your reply. Do you agree to hand over the city of Dherim? This city should belong to His Majesty the King."

Zhang Qiang waved his hand, Ramosun didn't want to say anything anymore, he shouted, "Come here."

The guard standing at the door lifted the curtain and walked in with the sound of metal and iron armor, and Ramosun shouted to the two Swadian guards in a bad tone: "Send the king's messenger out. "

The two Swadian guards, one left and one right, sandwiched the Cylinder knight, a young rider who seemed to have become a knight from the shadow of his father, with stern eyes, and the Cylinder knight followed them with some fear. walked out.

Zhang Qiang glanced at Ramosen, and Ramosen resigned knowingly.

Wei Wuji has been sitting there, watching.After Zhang Qiang invited the past messengers out, he said: "The relationship seems to be deadlocked. The king didn't just give up a big city, a city with unlimited benefits and a very important strategic position, just because of his friendly relationship with you." The pass city is handed over to you, and he wants to master it himself."

Zhang Qiang nodded heavily, "Yes, I knew it wouldn't be that easy."

"But I'd like to see, the Harlangoth family, Earl of Crags; the Olaf family; the Doruboye family, Earl of Varithien; , like a greedy, old-fashioned little landlord, how did these powerful people divide up the cake after the reunification of the Kingdom of Swadia? In the cracks of the powerful family, how does King Harlaus deal with their relationship and the distribution of interests, so don't worry too much about how to reply to the king's inquiry."

Wei Wuji looked at him, "You seem to have figured it out all of a sudden. Also, you missed someone, Queen Aisona."

"Queen Isona? Well, in the face of the power of Earl Crags, the superior family history and powerful influence of the Harlengoss family, she is not enough to look at at present, so she can only follow the Harlengoss family, even if there is a carat Earl Gus's sympathy and love, it is difficult for her to do anything. The orthodoxy of the Harlan Goss family will always be the Earl of Harlan Goss and the Earl of Rogers. The entire family power dominated by these two people will make Krag Earl Si has a headache, and Queen Isona is afraid. That is not something we have a headache about. Wait a few days, maybe the situation will change."

Wei Wuji was a little depressed, lowered his head, and shook his head helplessly. His appeal was not answered. He is now like a counselor under Zhang Qiang, a knight guard. Skills, the ability to engage in scientific research, he himself is a game lover, a senior reader of fantasy novels.Many things are not too demanding, unlike Zhang Qiang, who wants to reach the ultimate peak of a matter, he has an indomitable tenacity, a long-term endurance of a small person.

Zhang Qiang stood up, walked to him, and patted him on the shoulder, "Wait, I'm not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry, it's just a village, my strategic position is very important, and it can collect tens of millions of customs and taxes every year City, I don’t know if I can get it, although... I shot him down. At least 1000 soldiers were sacrificed, and more than [-] soldiers were injured and disabled. I don’t believe I can’t get it after such a big effort return."

In the next few days, Zhang Qiang patrolled the territory every day, practiced the skills of the lord, and sometimes found a forest, carrying an ax like he just came to this world, chopping trees and logging, and practicing his lumberjack skills.

His lumberjack skills have been cultivated to level 80, and he has been able to chop enough firewood proficiently. A lot of red pine, black iron wood, and camphor wood have been felled back.

He has obtained the title of Logging Master in the Skills Guild.

This is how he copes with the current chaotic and complicated world situation. Anyway, he has a strong army and a huge territory. Every day he occupies Dherim, he will have an extra day of taxation. The Kingdom of Swadia will end the civil war After that, business flourished again. Every day, businessmen and adventurers from all the kingdoms on the mainland that were not at war with the Swadia Kingdom or restored countries came to this city to seek opportunities for wealth and development.
