There is also a bounty for the competition, and William gave a full 2,200 silver coins as a reward for this competition, of course, this is not for one person, after all, this is a team competition, and the 2,200 silver coins will be distributed equally to everyone in the winning group.

Divided into ten equal parts, or two hundred silver coins per person, this is a very large fortune for most people.

Even if it was William's knights in the Inner Palace, it would take three years to be able to save this number.

There are a total of 75 teams that have signed up, which means that 825 people participated in this competition, and of course William could not attend every game of such a huge number of games, he would only appear in the preliminary and semi-finals.

In the past few days, seventy-five teams have begun to compete fiercely, riding on the horses in a heroic posture, with the horse in their hands to hit the polo under their feet, the action is extraordinary.

The audience was fascinated by the fact that polo matches were different from athletic tournaments, polo had a very strong spectacle value, rather than just watching the knights beat each other in armor like the athletic tournament.

Now in polo, they are wearing uniform leather armor and playing with the four-meter riding gun provided by William.

In the audience, there were bursts of cheers from time to time, cheering for the players they were optimistic about, or applauding when they saw the wonderful picture.

The nobles also nodded from time to time, they were also more interested in this polo, not only was it very ornamental, but they also saw a lot of knights with very superb riding skills in it.

Such a warm atmosphere naturally attracted a lot of speculators, who peddled their goods around the arena, and took advantage of the irrational nature of the spectators to defraud them of copper coins with their inferior goods.

Of course, no one dared to coax the aristocracy, nor could they coax them, because they did not sit in the audience like ordinary spectators.

Their location was under the high platform where William was, and there was basically no one to reach it, not to mention, the nobles usually had servants or attendants to serve by their side, and there was no shortage of food and drink.

It can be said that although William spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to hold a game, it also brought a lot of benefits.

With so much aristocrats and knightly classes, and merchants also attracted them, their consumption during this period alone brought at least forty or fifty thousand silver coins to Dellenburg.

And this money William has to be taxed, and some taverns and service establishments are still officially operated by William, so that William will be able to return seven or eight thousand silver coins for this part.

And that's not even counting the other effects of the contest, such as attracting merchants and letting all the merchants in the kingdom know that there is a Denlenburg that has removed all tax cards along the way and only charges 20% of the last transaction tax.

Even if many merchants did not come, these small and medium-sized merchants would spread the news throughout the kingdom when they returned.

William would no longer have to go to great lengths to issue decrees to attract merchants, and merchants would flock to the market because of the tax exemption and the market.

When the time comes, commercial prosperity will be certain, and commercial prosperity will bring the wealth of the territory and the strength of the lord.

You don't see, the kingdom of Lingiche near the sea in the north has made a lot of money by relying on sea trade and land trade, and it is a country that has become the country of gold coins.

Its financial strength is terrifying, for example, one hundred and twenty years ago, the Lingicher Kingdom alone bears 60% of the military expenses of the Holy War Army.

That's to maintain the military expenses of more than 90,000 people, which logistics supplies can rely on plunder, but the necessary funds for extraction, as well as some other materials, must all be provided by them.

After the war, according to some calculations, in that holy war, the Lingiche Kingdom took out 1.2 million silver coins at one time, which was enough for the income of the royal family of the Tskma Kingdom for four years.

But they didn't spend it in vain, and the 1,200,000 silver coins gave them the equivalent of a quarter of their land.

If it weren't for the fact that their army was too withered and the population was not too large, then the position of the continental hegemon might have been theirs long ago.

The royal family of the Tskema Kingdom was relatively poor, because they no longer had any business to make money except for the iron ore.

I don't want the royal families of other countries to control a pillar industry, but among the surrounding countries, the Kingdom of Cikma is okay.

However, even William's annual income can reach more than 100,000 silver coins, and if the business in the territory prospers and the commercial tax increases, it can even exceed the industry under his control.

There were a lot of speculators around the arena who started betting on the game, hoping to make a profit from this game.

Like them, William also opened a gambling market, but since he was official and had better credit, more people came here to participate in the gambling game.

In a short period of time, sixty or seventy thousand silver coins were gathered in the gambling market.

Five days passed, and the teams in the competition were almost eliminated, and in the end there were only five teams left, and that's it, two of them from William's knights.

William's knights, with more than 120 of them, took part in the tournament, and because they had been in contact with polo earlier, and their riding skills were very good, and their training was mostly cooperative, they also had quite good results.

At this time, William appeared on the field, he took Wella's hand, and the two of them appeared on the red carpet in full costume.

They were accompanied by the three counts, with their wives, Baron Mouyaune and General Yousen, also dressed in splendid gowns, and walked to the high platform.

The game soon began, and the team of the Knights of Denlenburg and the team of the Royal Knights began to compete fiercely.

Baron Muyeune and General Yousen came this time to bring fifty royal knights, and after learning that the knights of Denlenburg had also formed a team to compete, the royal knights could not be left behind, and with the approval of General Yousen, they also signed up to prepare for the competition.

At this time, Autumn is on the side of the Knights of Denlenburg, and they are holding a four-meter riding gun modified club, and on the club is something similar to a pot lid, which can push the ball forward on the ground, of course, this is also a very test of skill.

Hu Limu rode a war horse, galloping on the field with joy, and the war horse seemed to be a part of his body, allowing him to sit on the back of the horse and perform all kinds of difficult movements.

Shaking off several opponents in succession, Autumn seemed to grow on his club, and with his superb equestrian skills, no one could do it.

Flying up and down, he is like a gorgeous butterfly, and like a flying arrow, relying on his superb riding skills, playing opponents round and round.

I saw that he shook off the two closest opponents to him two or three times, and threw the club in his hand upward, and the ball inside was thrown into the opponent's goal by him.
