Warhammer Throne

Tax official Gasparton began to report information about Baron Jean's information item by item.

Under the leadership of Baron Jean, he manages a baron ’s castle and town, a horse farm, a vineyard, and five natural villages. The Chinon River flowing down the mountain divides the baron ’s collar into two. There are mines in the mountains along the collar. There are workshops on the river.

Each year the Baron Collegiate can pay the Baron about 700-800 kronor worth of income, in addition to the vineyard income and a small amount of income from the pit, which adds up to a total of about 1,000 kronor, but about 300 of them The gold krone is to be used to pay for various expenses and maintain daily military expenditures. Then Ryan also pays a tithe to the fairy in the lake, but as a holy knight he will no longer pay 5% of the "king tax" to the king.

So his real annual income is about 500-600 kronor.

However, in addition, the superior knights ca n’t just let the poor serfs and citizens go. War taxes, road taxes, various special taxes, business license taxes, and even head tax can all be determined by the mood of the knight. The specific amount of income is not fixed. Some knights will even send tax officials to find all serfs to levy head tax such as "birthday tax" on their birthday.

That is to say, if he does not consider the cost and the consequences, it is also possible to force the net income to reach 1,000 kronor per year.

When the Duke of Winford, to which Ryan belongs, initiates the call, Ryan must send at least two knights, five cavalry, and fifty infantry to report, or pay military service equivalent to the cost of military recruitment for these exemptions.

What he didn't know was that the performance of the Holy Grail Knight also surprised Gaspardon.

Most of the knight lords of Brittania have a characteristic. They do n’t like to focus on these complicated things, and they are also insensitive to the messy figures. Therefore, the knight masters generally set a general after the inspection. The figures are then handed over to the tax officer to complete. Their attention is focused on how to play for their ladies and show their bravery.

This gives many tax officials and their stewards the opportunity to take advantage of them. Savvy tax officers and stewards will spend a few years or more slowly turning the money belonging to the nobleman into their own, and then find a way Get rid of the situation of doing things for people under the fence.

Gasparton, the tax officer sent by the fairy in the lake, would not naturally embezzle, but it ’s the first time that Gaspardon sees the holy grail knight who knows all the accounts and estimates the approximate income range. The middle-aged man not only played the spirit of twelve points, but he wondered that the person in front of him could become the champion of Ms. Lake.

"How many standing soldiers are there in the territory now?" Ryan asked casually.

"There are now twenty-five infantrymen and four sergeants." Gasparton replied immediately.

"Why are there so few?" Ryan frowned.

In the ancient days of the dynasty, the limit under the feudal system was ten men and one soldier, but this cannot be counted in the Middle Ages in this world. Considering the productivity of Baron Jean, the fertility of the land, and the war potential of the serfs, twenty Five men and one soldier is a relatively normal number of standing troops.

Even so, Baron Jean's collar, with a population of about six to eight thousand, should not have these standing troops.

"I disbanded most of the standing army, leaving only the best young guys. I think the army should be selected by His Excellency Lane." Gasparton said there was no pressure on this matter, and he said easily: "It is a great honor to be able to fight for Lord Lane as a holy knight. We cannot allow anyone to join the ranks of Lord Lane. Lord Lane must have his own selection criteria."

Huh? Ryan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and his insights showed that the tax officer sent by the fairy in the lake was indeed excellent, because his original plan was to disband the army and re-elect, but he did not want to be This wicked person, Gasparton can think that this layer is really not easy.

Next, Gasparton explained in many details that he not only sent people to clean and repair the castle in advance, but also prepared enough furniture for the second and third floors of the castle. The money is the lake **** witch Moji Anna gave it, which shows the preference of the fairy in the lake for Ryan.

Gaspardton was very careful in many places. He posted notices in several villages to let all serfs know that the new lord lord is a holy grail knight. He constantly urged spring ploughing and encouraged the serfs to work hard. The Duke of Ford seconded some rangers to patrol the border of the northern Sharon forest to ensure that he could organize the militia to fight back when the beastmen invaded.

"Very good! Mr. Gasparton, are you here to be seconded temporarily? Do you have the original position?" When Ryan asked the sentence, the middle-aged 40-year-old man immediately realized what , He endured the excitement and hurriedly replied: "No, Lord Lane."

"That's fine, you will be my tax officer for the time being. If you behave well, I will consider letting you formally hold this position ... but not now." There was no expression on Ryan's face, he waved his hand and gestured. Gasparton can go out.

"Yes!" Gaspardton bowed backwards, then exited the door.

Ryan frowned as he watched the tax officer slowly exit the door. He was thinking about many things.

Under the background of this world like the Middle Ages, the lord ’s authority over his own fiefdom is absolute, but the part of the management is limited. In addition to tax collection and conscription, the life of the lord and the life of civilians are undoubtedly separated.

He now needs to form his own team and manpower.

A baron has two kingdom knights and five ranger knights. Among them, Lopus must have the position of a ranger knight. As for the kingdom knights, there is no need to worry. , He believes that the two vacant Kingdom Knight positions will make everyone move.

Ranger knights also have the difference between real seals and virtual seals. In Brittany, any nobleman will get the title of ranger knight when he is an adult, but that is a virtual seal. The five ranger knight titles in Ryan's hand are real seals. There is income from positions.

Especially Ryan is also a Holy Grail knight, who does n’t want to fight side by side with the Holy Grail knight? To know that the powerful Holy Grail Knight can often win the personal attention of the lady. If you are accidentally noticed by the lady, wouldn't it be with Rong Yan?

The Holy Grail Knight can greatly reduce the mistrust of the existing lords to the new lord, but he still has a lot to do, and now most of the affairs can only be taken slowly one by one.

Gasparton has organized a five-person servant team for Ryan. Ryan immediately appointed Emilia as the maid chief and Olika as her personal maid, and then incorporated Miranda into the servant's team. .

In the evening, on the large wooden table in the dining room in the castle, Ryan had a dinner with people such as Lopes, Alfred, Gasparton, etc. Since the first arrival, there was nothing to eat in the castle, and everything I will deal with it.

As for Emilia and others who are not qualified to eat at the same table as Ryan and others, they waited for the newly appointed Baron to clean up the dinner table before completing their dinner in the kitchen.

The sky is getting darker. There is no moonlight in the Jean Baron collar tonight, and some are just stars. The time is now at the end of March. The night of early spring is still cold. Although the Jean Baron collar is a rich land, it will not be so. To spend more money to install magic lights, the night territory is very dim.

Ryan had some magic lamps in his hand, which were donated by Teresa's mother Aurora. He could activate them by inputting psionic energy. These lamps were already installed in several main rooms by him.

Standing on the balcony of the castle and looking out, the Sharon forest in the north appeared at the edge of the line of sight. No one knew that there were no dangerous creatures in the dark forest.

The mountains in the east have a road that leads to the Principality of Winford along the river. The snow on the top of the mountain does not change all year round. If you cross the snowy mountain, you can reach Helenhild, the capital of the Principality of Winford. The prestigious big city.

At this moment, footsteps came from behind Ryan: "My Baron, are you looking for me?"

It's Gasparton.

"Yes, Gaspardon, please sit down." Ryan turned around and motioned for his temporary tax officer to sit down with him on the balcony.

The dark elf Olika walked over with an iron plate, butter beer and mugs on it, and a small bowl of water, she carried things on the balcony table and filled both with butter beer, and then Shou Shan stood behind Ryan without a word.

Gaspardton was a bit curious about how Ryan got such a dark elf maid, but since the lady did not enlighten him, he naturally dared not ask, and then Ryan's actions continued to refresh the tax officer's three views.

I saw Ryan reached out his hand, the light blue energy gathered in his hands, a ball of water was separated from the bowl of water, and then quickly frozen in the air, the ice was thrown into Ryan ’s mug: "Gaspar Mr. Dun, do you want something? "

"No ... no need." Gasparton waved his hand a little under pressure: "Something please say it straight, my baron."

"Many parts of the castle are damaged, and the water tower is showing signs of disrepair. I plan to have someone completely repair my castle. I do n’t know what good advice Mr. Gasparton has?" Lane said quietly. Is not a problem. "

"If the baron has no financial concerns, then I suggest you go to Helenhild to find a businessman to do this." Gasparton thought for a while and said sincerely: "There are craftsmen on Jean , But their level is limited, it may not meet your needs, and ... "

"And?" Ryan still couldn't see any emotion.

"And I think it ’s necessary for the baron to visit His Excellency Francois Duke of Winford and His Excellency Connally Marquis Ascot." Gasparton continued: "Jean is part of the Principality of Winford Your portal, I believe that Francois will be willing to help. "

"Hmm ~" Ryan nodded. He made up his mind. When things settled down, he immediately went to visit Marquis Ascot and Duke Winford.

He will take root here and grow up in the future. It is necessary to establish a good relationship with his boss, even in name.

"By the way, I have a question. Can Mr. Gasparton explain it to me?" Lane smiled. "In the previous record, I remember that the name of His Majesty our King is 'Tiger' Dinoah-Jean -Richard, but in the mouth of Miss Suria, how did he become Richard Le Angouran? "

"This is not contradictory. Our full name is called Noah-Jean-Richard-Le-Angouran." Gasparton began to explain the difference.

It turned out that Di Noah was Richard ’s mother ’s name, let ’s be his father ’s name, Richard was his real name, and German meant “from”, and Le Angourand was the name of his lord.

The general meaning of the name is that the children of Jean and Di Noah are from Richard of Le Angourand.

"So Miss Suria's full name is Surya-Kumani-Antri-de-Winford?" Ryan said casually.

"That's exactly what it is, but please pay attention to all the families with the hereditary title that can only use the name of German + territory." Gasparton reminded.

"Okay, I understand."

Gasparton retreated.

There are only two people left in the balcony, Olika and Lane ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Lean said to Olika: "Let's go rest too."

The dark elf nodded, and she followed Ryan to the third floor.

The third floor is where the lord and his family live. Ryan lives in a separate room. This is a large room with a size of 60 square meters. Various carpets have been laid on the ground and the windows are thick. Covered by thick curtains, all kinds of furniture are available and the fireplace is already lit.

The maid called two barrels of hot water. The baron and the dark elf bathed and changed clothes one after another, and then they lay together on the innermost bed of the room, one by one.

In the dark night, everything was silent.

Until the dark elf took the initiative to speak: "Master? Can I make a suggestion?"

"Don't you know that the slave has no right to advise the master?" Lane smiled, reaching for the dark elf's shoulder gently, feeling her softness.

The dark elf resisted for a while, but her weak strength was not an opponent of the legendary middle-level human being at all. With her hands pulled to the back, she failed again.

But this was also what she expected. The dark elf knew that she could not succeed, but this was what she wanted, not that she wanted to be held by this human, but that she wanted to take this opportunity to provoke Words.

"I think I need to show you my value. The weak are not eligible for asylum." Olika shook her head and her face was all self-deprecating: "I can't reflect any of my own except for you as a servant Value, in Druzi, the only value of my slave is ... "

Speaking of which, Olika's cold and wild face was a little blushing, and she looked away.

"Emmm ~ Let's just listen to it."
