Chapter 195: Seating
As soon as Li Youran's words were finished, the people below immediately began to applaud! This is all learned from TV, and all the leaders who are let go in it have to applaud after speaking.
Li Youran pressed down with both hands, and his voice was quiet!
"To reward Ziggy for his bravery, and to let others see that as long as you are for the sake of the territory, I will not treat you badly! Here I declare that I will canonize Zieg as my baron, and that the village of Ida on the west side of the city that never sleeps will be his fiefdom, where there are nearly three hundred inhabitants, and there is a lake and woodland nearby, it is a good place! Ziggy came up. ”
Zig didn't expect Li Youran to give him a fief at all, saying that it was a village! But Ziggy is in charge of the affairs of the territory, how can he not know what the village of Ida is, that village is similar to a prosperous town, mainly because of the relationship between the lake and the woodland, so it has two taxes, fishing and hunting, and if the adventurer wants to enter the Phantom Night Forest, where will be a good entrance, supplies and accommodation are very convenient, so the commercial tax is also very rich.
The key thing is that these are all his own, he only needs to pay a tax to Li Youran, as for the rest, he doesn't care about anything else, how much he earns is his! This news really confused Ziggy, he didn't even know it, he just thought it was a baron title, after all, his main butler!
Thinking of the housekeeper, he reacted, if he went to be a baron himself! So who's going to be the housekeeper? This position is from a close minister, and if the lord establishes a palace in the future, then the housekeeper will belong to the level of the inner minister and the palace minister! This position must not be lost! With a decision in his heart, Ziggy walked up.
"Thank you, my master, but I think I can accept the baronial title, and the fief should be taken back by the owner!" Ziggy's words caused a burst of exclamation from the people below, what is the situation? I don't want a fief. There are even many people beating their chests and sighing that they didn't get such benefits.
You must know that now is not as good as before, Li Youran's team is not so easy to enter, now that there is an academy, it is difficult for people who are not from orthodox colleges to integrate into Li Youran's management system, and foreign talents need to work hard to integrate into it. The previous John, Carl, Ellington Knight and others had already entered the academy for further study, and they didn't want to be excluded from the center of power.
"Why not accept it? It's a reward you deserve! Li Youran was very puzzled, he knew Zigge's character, and he just wanted to become a nobleman and rely on his strength to regain his strength to shine on the lintel, the enemy was brought into the forest by him as soon as he was notified, and he heard that there was a miserable howl inside, and then he couldn't hear it anymore, and after coming out, Ziggy seemed to be a lot more relaxed. Because Li Youran sued him, most of the nobles in Phantom Moon City died, and his family was spared because of the loss of power.
"Master, I hope to be able to continue to stay by your side, if I become a baron, I don't think I have so much time to take care of you with a feudal territory!" Whether it is loyal or really wanting to stay, after Ziggy finished speaking, Li Youran really felt good!
There are already people below who are secretly applauding in their hearts. In their opinion, Zige's approach is to curry favor with Li Youran, the lord, in order to have another subordinate who doesn't even want a territory by your side. Isn't it faithful enough? It's not to be reused in the future, but they also admire Ziggy's courage, after all, it's territory, and they can't bear it!
"I see, don't worry! The territory is still wanted! Otherwise, what do you let the people behind you do! They are also considered meritorious, and you don't even need to reward them. Are they too embarrassed to take it! Take it, you can find someone to act as an agent for the territory, anyway, it's just to collect taxes, and as for your housekeeper position, even if you don't want to do it, I won't let people go. Be honest with your housekeeper! ”
Li Youran's words really did not surprise everyone, everyone looked at Zig jealously, his luck was really good!
Li Youran handed over the specially customized costume and the badge representing the baron to Ziggy, and then said to everyone below: "Next, please take a seat, the banquet will start immediately!" ”
Just when everyone didn't know how to sit, Ziggy got a list, and as a result, the waiter was arranged to guide everyone's seating, and the guests were of course another table, and the main ones who needed to be ranked were everyone in the city that never sleeped.
First of all, it is naturally Li Youran, the main position is undoubted, and the seat on the left hand side is his fiancée Elena, after seeing this arrangement, Locke is very satisfied, which is equivalent to admitting in front of everyone that Elena has the right to manage the castle in the future, the position of the hostess.
The rest of the people were on both sides of the table, and the first to sit under Li Youran was naturally Morton and Field, and everyone knew very well in their hearts what these two people represented to Li Youran, but Heywood did not sit on the seat, which made the others mumble in their hearts, of course, when they saw his tower-like body standing quietly behind Li Youran.
No one would be so stupid that Heywood had lost the trust of his lord, on the contrary, everyone thought that it was because Heywood didn't need a seat to establish his position, didn't he see that Zigger, who had just been made a baron, was a head short in front of him! Who would dare to underestimate him?
Actually, the real situation is, how do you make an active armor to eat? The undead don't need food, at least not until they become gods!
The second, of course, is Ziggy and Archbishop Oak! One of these two people is the mainstay of the territory management that has grown up, and Ziggy doesn't need to talk about arranging major matters, but Ellington is inconspicuous! But he tried his best to stabilize all kinds of conflicts within the territory, even if Li Youran never gave him any rights! He is still doing what he can, and he has done a lot for the Knight Academy and other academies, and the reason why he was able to sit in second place this time was also the result of Li Youran's special arrangement.
Everyone knows that although he is very young, in terms of future, Oak is the only one who can be compared with Morton and others, if it weren't for the fact that there are only two starting positions, it is estimated that Oak will be the first order as an archbishop.
As for the third one, John who was naturally in charge of the engineering team and Carl as the sheriff, as the first two of the earliest group to follow Li Youran, their positions were relatively low, but they were real power figures, Carl was in charge of the security station, and the security team has developed from a small team to a large department with a standing army of several thousand people due to the continuous growth of the city that never sleeps.
This is not counting the members of the auxiliary security team, of course, Li Youran did not get out the temporary worker, the so-called auxiliary security team is equivalent to the militia team, and each village is composed of its own, but the salary is borne by Li Youran, the lord! Carl only needs to inspect these teams every once in a while, and if you encounter unqualified or corrupt or illegal situations, you can eat you!
The territory is still very good at this time, the people are some tough guys, in addition to respecting and fearing their lords, if other people want to search their heads, the first thing they have to face is the weapons in their hands!
But John is in control of the Ministry of Construction, a department closely related to people's livelihood, almost all the projects are from John's hands, especially after getting the technical support of technicians from the earth, the Ministry of Construction is becoming more and more important, and the livelihood industry is also affected by him a lot, and the lumberjacks and workers such as mining stone and ore almost all rely on John to eat!
It's only natural that these two sit in third place! After all, the changes in the city that never sleeps can be seen!
After that, there were some other small nobles like the Ellington Knight and the original Maple Leaf Lord, and the attached nobles of the City that never sleeped surged several times immediately after Li Youran's victory, and there were more than ten of them that had not been dealt with after Ziggy came back, all of them were the kind that had territories and took refuge!
After the seats were arranged, Li Youran raised the wine glass, the bright red made the wine glass look particularly charming under the illumination of the light, Li Youran drank this glass, and the guests below immediately raised the wine glass and drank it all.
The banquet finally began, and while everyone was enjoying the food, they were talking quietly with people they didn't know, and they might be able to use it in the future to establish a connection with each other, and after a meal, they dispersed, of course, everyone had already established their own connections, and there would be correspondence in the future, and the lord was said to have made alchemy items that could talk and even see each other in distant places, and they were ready to be sold! Be sure to buy one when the time comes.
The satisfied people left, and the remaining orc and elf representatives from the wasteland and the city of the moon, and of course Zhenhaehou were among them, and everyone stayed and waited to talk about the captives.
In fact, there is nothing to talk about, Li Youran has accepted all the captives, and they saw Li Youran just to leave enough impressions.
"You don't have to be restrained, sit down, you want to see me, is there something wrong?" Li Youran said to the orcs and gray elves of the wasteland.
"That's right, honorable lord, our orc empire hopes that you can open the mutual market, so that the orcs of the wasteland can come here to trade, or your shop can be opened to the orc empire, and our emperor can guarantee that your interests will not be interfered with by others." Goode said his purpose, which was also confessed by the Orc Emperor when he came!
"We Grey Elves also want your help, so we have specially organized a bunch of brave and warlike warriors, hoping to join your territory, and this is the best woman in our Grey Elf clan, I hope you can do it." The gray elf came out with a girl, and it seems that the best woman she said must have included herself. (To be continued......)
