Transcendent Noble

"The Yinyue River flows from north to south, passes through our territory, and finally merges into the Jinshui River. She divides...the family territory into Hexi and Hedong."

Lilia is exceptionally intelligent, seeing Victor summon Nicole's vassals to participate in the round table meeting, so the Finikse Baron collar and Randal collar are called the family territory.

Nicole's subordinates have no objection to this. In fact, the two sides have long been difficult to distinguish from each other. Finikse Baron's financial, military, and food supplies all depend on the Randal Family. Moreover, Baron has a small territory, and the 3000 square kilometer trifling area does not have much potential for development. Nicole’s vassals cut their heads and wanted to send their second sons and daughters to Silvermoon Manor to serve as Victor’s attendants, so that they could find a job in the Randal Family. future.

Lilia slightly smiled, with a red lips, and continued: "In the past, we mainly developed the land in Hexi. Now, with the improvement of the water conservancy facilities in the ring canal on the east bank of the Yinyue River, we have begun to reclaim the Hedong area. At present, Hexi has Flatlake Town, Qiangwei Town, and 6 administrative villages, under its jurisdiction 11 villages and 72 tenant farms; Hedong area has Wanqu Town, 2 administrative villages, under its jurisdiction 5 villages and 35 tenant farms. "

"The total arable land area including terraces is more than 3.83 million mu, pastures are 4.66 million mu, the total reservoir area is 15,730 mu, the purple cane forest is 570,000 mu, and the remaining 6,000 square kilometers of territories are undeveloped. Developed hills and woodlands."

"The family adopted a three-year rotation system, and the total grain output last year was 220,000 tons; the pasture can breed more than 50 cattle, sheep, horses, elks and pigs each year. Ten thousand; last year’s aquatic fish earned 1.33 million pounds; 32,000 acres of purple cane groves were harvested to produce 54.2 million pounds of raw sugar... I will not report the rest of the cash crops. Flatlake Town Office of Government has detailed records, and I will send someone to copy it. Everyone here."

"In terms of population, the family has more than 67,000 registered children, more than 95,000 tenants, more than 27,000 freelance workers, and a total permanent population of more than 180,000."

My people exceed 180,000?

Victor secretly rejoiced, knocked on the table with a casual expression: "Tell me about the specific situation of young, strong, young and newborn."

Lilia pursed her lower lip slightly, thinking After thinking about it, he said: "There are about 40,000 elderly people over 50, about 50,000 children under 15 years old, and more than 70,000 young adults... There were more than 3,300 newborns the year before, and more than 5,200 newborns last year. This year’s newborn baby is estimated to be close to 7000."

Victor turned his head to Nicole laughed and nodded in praise: "Good job."

Nicole said softly, "You A family is required to have at least 4 children, and a couple will give birth to one child in three years on average. The church is full of praise for your childbirth policy, but in order to encourage childbirth, the family has paid a great price..."

"Uh...this issue will be discussed later." Victor changed the subject in time, turned his eyes to Boots, instructed: "Tell me about the situation in Raven Town."

Boots and Lao Ha Mu exchanged his eyes and said first: "Raven Town has 1 village under its jurisdiction, 6 tenant farms, a permanent population of more than 17,000, and 180,000 mu of arable land. The food we produce can only satisfy the people and tenants, those merchants and freelancers. The food depends on the output of the Viscount of Solon, and the living supplies needed by Barbarian and Paladin are supplied by the Chamber of Commerce... However, we lease shops and warehouses to the outside world; collect transaction taxes from caravans; purchase mountain products and products collected by Barbarian Minerals are processed into commodities and then resold. There are at least 8,000 kinsols in net income each year. Last year, we paid 5,000 kinsols to the family."

"Oh, yes." Ci brows happily added: "The inner wall of Raven Town that we built with softsilver ore has been completed. Adults can go to Raven Town to have a look if they have time... It's very strong and beautiful."

Hearing that the outer wall of thorium ore in Raven Town was completed, Victor was in a good mood and said with a smile on his face: "I will go...then, you can consider using softsilver ore to build the outer wall of Raven Town."

Boots’s face suddenly became bitter, and stammering said: "My lord, this...can build the outer wall of Raven Town with blue bricks and rammed earth? That...use softsilver ore to build the city wall, which is strong enough, that’s too It costs money... We have to buy softsilver ore from Barbarian, and also spend a lot of firewood to burn the softsilv er ore, plus labor costs, the overall budget is amazing. If this cost can be saved, I can assure you that the net financial income of Raven Town will not be less than 13,000 jinsols per year! "

Victor perceives that Nicole and Lilia are both looking at him with vigilant eyes. It seems that as long as they insist on building the outer wall of the town with thorium ore, they will immediately stop it.

I fill the city wall with thorium ore, which is a last resort in the eyes of outsiders. If I disregard the cost of building the wall and continue to use thorium ore to build the outer wall, it will inevitably be suspicious... Victor secretly thought, and the surface is not moving. Sensually asked: "Is it expensive to build a softsilver city wall? "

"It's very expensive! Its cost is almost three times that of an ordinary city wall! "Nicole gritted his teeth and said, paused, and calmed down, suggested: "My dear, we don't need to rush to build the inner wall of Flatlake Town... As long as the royal family fixes the port under Chebman, the southern kingdom of the kingdom will be sold to Centaur Hills. Stone. We might as well stop building the inner walls of Flatlake Town...when cheaper stones are available, then build the inner and outer walls of the towns. "

Nicole's "cheaper stone" refers to rock bricks. According to Duke York's plan, when King Edward was married, Centaur Hills threw iron bricks to the kingdoms. The envoy peddled the design drawings of the giant brick kiln, first made a fortune, and then took out the rock bricks after two or three years, united the kings, and forced the church to open up the coinage of the gold and silver sol.

Victor knew this well, but couldn't give up the thorium mine resources of the Marquis of Solim, and asked intently: "What is the interior wall of Flatlake Town? "

Lilia looked at Victor expectantly, and said crisply: "Most of the repairs are done...Should you stop first?" "

Victor frowned, showing a look of disgust, shook his head and said, "Most of the repairs are done?" Then use stone to build it? That's too ugly... Continue to repair the inner wall with softsilver ore, and forget the outer wall. "

The problem of Moon Elf’s beauty as everyone knows, Randal’s Royal Highness Victor said so, Nicole and Lilia can only nodded by default.

Victor asked in turn: "Raven Town’s What about the defense situation? "

Old Hamm replied: "My lord, Raven Town has 120 guards, 80 cavalry, and 30 fast bird light cavalry. The main task is to patrol the border, expel wild beasts, and catch poachers. There are 2,000 Paladin residents in Raven Town, and there is no problem with the security and order in the town. Barbarian is basically hiding in the mountains now, and he is not willing to deal with us very much. All trade cooperation with Raven Town is coordinated by Paladin. "

"Is there a problem with the police station to report?" "

The monkey stood up and said respectfully: "My lord, the police station currently has 454 soldiers, and the territory has a population of 180,000. There is a serious shortage of manpower in the security station. Almost all security soldiers do not have weekends. Many people do not even have time to go home even if their wives give birth to children. I ask the adults to increase the number of soldiers in the police station by at least another 500. "

Lilia said coldly: "You control two gangsters, and there are more than 4,000 gray towels for the police. "

The monkey said with a wry smile: "Madam, hyenas and gray towels are not paid, let them maintain law and order, they will only collect black money. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Mrs. Linda. "

Linda also said in an interface: "My lord, the monitoring station also needs to increase manpower..."

"Don't even think about it. "Lilia rolled the eyes and muttered in a clear voice.

Linda glared at Lilia. Without any fear, Lilia raised her eyebrows and glared back at her big brother's wife. She was born in War Bear. The two women of Mercenaries glared at each other, not like close companions at all.

If Victor had realized something, he motioned the monkey to sit down, turned his head and said to Elina: "How many family servants are there now in Silvermoon Manor? ? "

Alina smiled softly, and said softly: "My lord, it's not very long for me to return to the family. Let Alice answer this question on her behalf." "

Alice wrinkled her pretty nose and said, "Silvermoon Manor has 745 servants, 133 servants who will be 18 years old, 102 servants who will be 16 years old... …"

"I want 133 attendants! I want it! "

Nelson raised his hand suddenly and exclaimed.

Victor lightly glanced at him and said to Alice: "Don't pay attention to him, continue. "

"There are 328 maids in the house, and a total of 64 people can be married this year. There are 55 little servants of the noble bloodline, 39 boys, 16 girls... Oh, yes, in the season of fire last year, a little servant received body reshaping and naturally awakened Battle Qi. "Alice raised her pointed chin triumphantly, and said inviting credit.

The little attendant who naturally awakened Battle Qi, taking the golden potion would surely become a senior Knight. Victor was overjoyed and asked: " What's his name. "

Nicole smiled and said, "He is the little attendant brought back by Mrs. Audrey from the Eastern Alliance. I am 10 years old this year. I named him Dick... This time, Audrey The 250 noble children adopted by Mrs. Jin are very good. I first picked 30 and paid a total of 75,000 Jinsore for the persuasion. "

With Dick alone, the 75,000 Kingsall’s persuasion is even earned... Victor and Nicole looked at each other and smiled, avoiding this topic, and then asked: "The general knowledge school and What about vocational schools? "

Alice bulged her cheeks and said: "The general education school compulsory enrollment for children aged 4-8. There are general education schools in all towns, villages, and farms. The total number of students exceeds 22,000. . The vocational school has been running for two years. There are 556 people in the craftsman’s school and 377 in the soldier’s school..."

wanted! "

Victor said helplessly: "Their eldest is only 10 years old. What do you want them to do now?" "

"Really? Then I will wait. Nelson sat down in a whisper, and emphasized: "The child from the soldier school must be a soldier... You can't snatch someone from me." "

Victor also ignored him, frowned, and asked: "Why are there so few people in vocational schools?" "

" Vocational schools have to charge tuition, especially soldiers' schools need to use strong medicine, the tuition is much higher than the craftsman school. Tenant households are not very wealthy yet, and their children will be called back to help with work after their children have completed general education. The children who really go to school come from the families of the children. However, some people think that there is no need to send the child to the soldier school to learn martial skills. Anyway, hiring Legion will recruit soldiers. When the child reaches 16 years old, he will join the mercenary. Not only can they save tuition fees, they can also earn commissions. "Nicole explained quietly.

"hmph! No vision. "

Victor sighed, knocked on the table, and said with a headache:

"If you want to train elite rangers, you must receive martial skill training from an early age... I raise so many people, and I can't afford it...Let’s announce the announcement that the soldier’s school will be graduated from four years to three years, and Legion will be hired to give priority to recruiting young people who graduated from the soldier school. In addition, another obedience training camp will be set up to recruit outstanding students from the soldier school. The enrollment ratio shall not exceed 30% of the graduates, and the annual enrollment limit shall not exceed 1,500. The cost of the training camp will be borne by the family, and a set of martial skill secret methods are also provided. But remember, obedience is obedience, and there is no possibility of repentance...the training camp has free potions, martial skill secrets, and the future of conquering the land with meritorious deeds. There is no need for parents and families to pay a copper penny for the child...I want people Families will be happy to send children to soldiers’ schools. Don’t those tenant families have no money to train children? We encourage families of our children to adopt outstanding children in general education schools. The future merits of the adopted children will be counted as the adoptive parents' families, and have nothing to do with the biological parents' families. "

Nicole thought about it carefully and slowly said: "It's a good idea... The children of the people's family can't be the servants of Silvermoon Manor, they can be the servants of the family." The families of the children pay to adopt the children of the tenant families, and the tenant families can raise other children if they have money. But..." She said with a frown, her voice changed, "Most of Randal's families are refugees, and there is no tradition and method of adopting children by vassals. Moreover, the child has reached the age of 11 after graduating from the soldier school and will have his own ideas. If they are not selected for the obedience training camp, they may be abused by their adoptive parents. "

Victor held Nicole's delicate hand and said with a smile: "My dear, you are actually opposed to my opinion. You say this to preserve my face." ”

Nicole’s eyes have Divine Vein veins, with a smile, and Victor’s fingers interlocking.

The fief lord is openly showing his affection, and the vassal below sits upright, narrowing his eyes, and acting only I can’t see, listen to Victor said with a smile:

"Spending money is like buying someone else’s child to be a cow and a horse. Is there such a cheap thing? I just asked them to pay for three years of tuition, not really persuading Jin to adopt. Children graduated from soldier school and still return to their biological parents' families, but they will join Legion in the future, or join the Rangers, and they will have to use their salaries to triple the original bursary, their merits, rewards, and even pensions. 10% of the gold will be deducted in return for the self-help family. In addition, if he unfortunately died in battle, the student family would be entitled to a obedience training camp or a mercenary quota, while his biological parents’ family did not inherit the quota. "

"It turned out to be like this. "Nicole looked at Victor with a flowery smile, and nodded and said: "My dear, you are worthy of being the big scholar of the silver tower, and you have solved a big problem with ease. "

Lilia stroked her smooth and full forehead, and said painfully: "My lord, the family now only lacks available manpower and money... The problem of lack of people can be solved easily. Transfer from Nelson. That's it. Lack of money... I really can't help it! "

"How can I draw people from me?" I disagree, and I firmly disagree! "

Nelson jumped up and said loudly to Victor: "My lord, the number of the First Army regiment has been reduced to 3,000, and it can't be less!" "

Lilia slapped the table suddenly, and said bitterly: "Yes, the First Army group has been reduced from 4,100 to 3,000, but you put the extra 1,100 people into the second Legion, and then Another 1,900 people were recruited. Now the second Legion has 3,000 people, and there are a total of 6,000 mercenaries! Do you know how much they spend each year? "

Nelson didn't even look at the younger sister, but only defended Victor: "My lord, I have formed the second Legion according to your requirements... You also said that the Southern Fortress We need 4000 soldiers to garrison in turn, and we have to open up Southern Continent. If 4000 soldiers are removed from 6000 soldiers, what is left for 2000? You said that the size of the family mercenary must reach at least 30,000 people, and make ten Legions, I only make two, Lilia will dig from me! "

Victor said with a headache: "You still have to wait fifteen years to develop Southern Continent. Are you too impatient?" "

"My lord, what you said, the First Army regiment is the cradle, and the veterans lead the recruits...Isn’t it a murloc now? I formed the second Legion, just to train the murloc to train and hire Legion. veteran. "

Nelson is righteous, taking a bite of "what you said," and Victor has no temper.

"Then let me introduce the current situation of the family's army. "

"Oh. Nelson raised his chest and said excitedly: "The family now has two hired Legions with a total of 6,000 soldiers; the swamp scouts have more than 1,400 people; and the registered militia has 18,555 people. The elite guards of the family are all scattered in the hired Legion, which can be recruited at any time, including 500 elite cavalry and 600 infantry soldiers. Your bodyguard also has 350 Swiftbird Hussars. "

Victor nodded and said with satisfaction: "The configuration of 1,100 elites is more reasonable than 4,900 mercenaries, but the church does not allow mercenaries to participate in family wars. I also need a family tour of 600 people. cavalry. "

Nelson patted his chest and promised: "This is no problem. The First Army has experienced the Murloc War, and there have been many qualified backbone soldiers. As long as you put the Silvermoon Manor's attendants in the next two years Give it to me and I can deploy elite guards and form another elite ranger. "

"Are you planning to recruit another 600 mercenaries?" "Lilia asked with cold eyes.

Nelson touched the back of his head, chuckled: "This...I plan to pick some people from the swamp scouts. If it is not enough, you must try to fill the gap. "

Lilia glared at him fiercely, turned her head, and said, "My lord, the family's financial situation is not ideal." Last year, the family’s total financial income was 180,000 jinsols..."

The sound of suck in a cold breath sounded in the Conference Hall, and Nicole's four vassals were shocked by this number.

"That's it? "Victor frowned and said.

That's it... 180,000 Kingsall called it that way?

The two Knights, Jomoson and Hals, were speechless, Pabo The mayor and the village of Dennis simply looked dull. They had heard of His Royal Highness Randal’s tricks, but they didn’t expect the income of 180,000 jinsols really not in his eyes, and the officials of the Randal Family It's all an expression that makes them feel ashamed.

"It's really less. "Lilia said aggrieved: "That's also for a reason. "

"Financial revenue includes 130,000 jinsol of raw sugar, 21 thousand jinsol from the sales of various commodities, 18 thousand jinsol's double-headed lizard Chamber of Commerce dividend, transaction tax 5600 Kingsor, Raven Town enshrines 5000 Kingsor. "

"In the past two years, we have absorbed more than 20,000 refugees. Coupled with the growth of newborn babies, the population of the territory has exceeded 180,000. Due to an increase in population, our food and commodities can be self-sufficient, but our external sales have dropped sharply. Although the people also buy food and daily commodities, the profit of domestic sales of food materials and commodities is not as good as that of external sales, and the double-headed lizard Chamber of Commerce also gives us less dividends. If it had not been ordered by Mrs. Nicole to harvest 32,000 acres of purple cane groves and increase the raw sugar sales quota, our finances last year would have been unable to make ends meet. "

"Even so, our fiscal surplus last year was only more than 8,000 goldsore. "

Victor sighed, shook his head and said with a smile: "Financial income of 180,000, with a balance of 8,000 kinsols...you will spend 170,000 kinsols a year...very good, very good . "

"So, please tell me, how did you spend the 170,000 goldsoul? "
