Chapter 295: With Fire

PS: Ask for votes, ask for recommendations

There is no uncomplaining loyalty in this world, and there is no reward for no reason.

For more than two thousand pounds, Edward did not hesitate to spill out, that is called a pleasure!

The consequence of this is also obvious, this kind of reward before practice has won a large number of people's hearts for him.

In other words, most of the more than 200 people in front of them were actually born in commoners, that is to say, their families are not very wealthy, and such a large amount of expenses to go to the East England area really put them under a lot of pressure.

Lemure was like this, and his originally tense mood was relaxed at once with His Majesty's generosity.

As mentioned earlier, he was born in an ordinary family, and his monthly salary and some extra income were just enough to support the family's expenses, so how could he have so much money to go to Cambridgeshire.

So, before he left, he went to the Royal Bank and vouched for it in his own name, thus taking out ten pounds, five of which were given to his wife and children who remained in London, and the remaining five pounds were all his assets on his way to Cambridgeshire.

In this era, ordinary people would rather be a little more miserable, and they will not borrow money.

You know, at this time, the people who run the loan business are basically Jews, and the Jewish vampire-like face has long been formed in the hearts of all Europeans, and borrowing money means that you have fallen into the abyss of the devil and can never get out of it.

More importantly, at this time, the lowest loan interest rate is 50 percent, and the other 80 percent, 90 percent, or even double are common.

Without some capital as confidence, there is no courage to borrow.

And the reason why he went to the Royal Bank to borrow money is because he receives his monthly salary from there, and he is most familiar with it; The second is because the interest rate of the Royal Bank is relatively low, and the conscience price - 50 percent, if you borrow ten pounds, after a year, you only need to repay 15 pounds, which is the most cost-effective.

And becoming the mayor of 100 districts, without the strict supervision of London, a mere fifteen pounds, can be recovered in less than half a year, which is simply a piece of cake.

But the king of the high platform didn't know that his reward had also made his family's business much less.

The young guards grimaced, and the two carried the boxes while the other two walked around and distributed the glittering gold coins inside the boxes.

In less than ten minutes, more than 200 people were distributed, and as the king, Edward also consciously gave a final speech, and walked off the high platform.

In the carriage, Edward sat in the center, goose down backrest soft, gently supporting his waist, while he closed his eyes and looked expressionless.

As a king, for his officials, he uses rewards and punishments to tie their hearts firmly in his hands, so that he can truly control the country.

As for a high-ranking nobleman like Henry VIII who had been a high-ranking nobleman since birth, he had no leisure to woo these commoner-born officials.

In his heart, only nobles are the most worthy of wooing, and commoners have no qualifications!

But Edward is not like this, he is the soul of a commoner, even if he has been educated by the royal family for more than ten years, but he has a natural sense of distrust of nobles.

After all, the nobility has been passed down to the present, and no matter how gracious you are, it is impossible to give a fief as before, at most a few manors, which is not a drop in the bucket for those nobles who have inherited it for hundreds of years?

Therefore, for the common people, a little reward, it will be remembered, cheap and easy to see the effect, the most simple and fast.

Thinking that these hundreds of people are sprinkled to East England, if it is a real talent, it will definitely stand out, the current England, talent is still relatively lacking, especially in the local area, it is basically the world of nobles and gentlemen, it is time to break this calm.

Thinking about it, Edward's face gradually showed a hint of ruthlessness.

To be honest, being king in England is really a humiliating thing.

Don't be old, he now has a lot of power, because the power of the nobility has shrunk, and the king has control over the parliament.

When the power of the nobility gradually recovers, the parliament will inevitably get out of control, and the power of the royal family will gradually retreat.

If the French royal family still controls its own territory, it controls a large number of subjects, while in England, nominally all the land belongs to the royal family, but except for some dukes and counts, it controls a population of more than 100,000.

More importantly, the English people care about the Parliament, even if it has little to do with ordinary people, but the English still trust the Parliament as always.

Between the king and the parliament, England would not hesitate to choose the Parliament, which began with the Magna Carta in 1215.

The parliament has always appeared among the people in the role of supervising the king, representing the name, which is what we call the will of the people.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that the capitalists had not yet risen and the aristocracy was in decline, they hurriedly carried out centralized power.

After a few months in the past, this group of people sorted out some contradictions, and after the second official selection examination, the 39 counties across the country implemented it together.

It doesn't matter how many people die.

A twinkle flashed in Edward's eyes, and the king needed to be ruthless.

Suddenly, he felt the speed of the carriage begin to slow down, and it seemed that Whitehall Palace had arrived.

After getting out of the carriage, the big-breasted girl in a long skirt greeted her with a smile on her face.

"Your Majesty, Knight Alexander is back!" The girl was parallel to Edward, her steps moving slowly with him, her blue eyes staring at his face, and she said softly.

"Really? What a big surprise! Edward looked at the smiling girl, paused, and smiled.

This is indeed good news, the Guards have not been away for a long time, which makes him, as a king, a little unstable.

Now that he is back, he has come back from a bloody battle, and he has seen blood, and his combat effectiveness has improved a lot.

Then, Edward's footsteps moved again, but the speed slowed down slightly, just now I saw a group of big men, and now the girl is beside him, and the fragrance lingers, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Any other good news?"

"Huh? The Marquess of Northampton has sent a letter saying that the Kate brothers have been captured alive and are waiting for your reply! ”

The girl watched as the king's angular and handsome face suddenly fell less than half a foot from her lips, and her head suddenly became a little confused, and her face flushed.

Fortunately, she also knew what her responsibility was, and forcibly pressed the shyness in her heart, so she said coquettishly.

Edward stopped again this time, thought for a while, and said slowly: "Just execute in Norwich!" With fireβ€”"
