Aristocracy is generally divided into two types.

One is the nobility of the kingdom with territory.

One is the honorary nobility who has no territory.

The former, as the name suggests, is a nobleman who has received a territory given by the kingdom, takes the territory as a base, occupies the land as the king, becomes a lord, and takes the development of the territory as his own duty.

This kind of aristocracy has the right to form a private knight order, can have an army, and the power is also extremely high, all matters in the territory are basically controlled by him, unless he commits a major crime, or he cannot contribute to the development of the territory all year round, then he will be reclaimed the territory and demoted to the altar, otherwise, in addition to the need to hand over 20% of the income in the territory to the kingdom every year, in the territory, the right of this nobleman is the highest and largest, and even the royal family has no right to intervene casually.

The latter, on the other hand, will not receive a domain, but will have the same rights as the former, and will not only be able to gradually own the Knights and personal armies, but will also receive annual offerings from the kingdom, depending on the rank of the knighthood.

Some of them will serve in the kingdom and become the relevant power in all aspects of the kingdom and the rest of the realm, while others will choose to do freelance work, travel everywhere, and even become honorary nobles of adventurers.

For example, Miggis and Leili's Lazahad family is an honorary nobleman, the title class is a marquis, responsible for all matters of the adventurer's guild, and the family has managed the adventurer's guild for generations, and the same is true of the Elbein family where Alidia is located, the unit where he serves is the knights, and he is also an honorary nobleman, and the knighthood class is also a marquis.

And of course, the relationship between the nobles of the territorial kingdom and the kingdom will be deeper.

After all, there is a territorial connection, even if you don't want to be involved, it's unlikely.

Honorary nobles have a higher degree of freedom, unless they choose to serve in the kingdom's authority, otherwise, unless they do something harmful to the kingdom, no matter what they want to do, the kingdom will not control it.

Honorary nobles who do not serve in the organs of power of the kingdom have only one obligation.

That is, when the kingdom is in trouble, it must come to the rescue.

In view of this, for people like Sheehan, becoming an honorary nobleman is undoubtedly a relatively high degree of freedom.

Rosie says that Sheen can choose between becoming a realm nobleman or an honorary nobleman.

"Then I'll be an honorary nobleman!"

Sheehan didn't hesitate to make such a decision.

So, Rosie immediately made a promise to Sheehan on behalf of the royal family.

"Since you have decided to become an honorary nobleman, the kingdom will not grant you a territory, but you still have the right to form a knight order and a private army, but the size of the knight order and the size of the army will be affected by the title."

"For example, the lowest-ranking barons in the nobility only have the right to form a hundred knights and an army of a thousand, and neither the knights nor the private army can exceed this limit."

"The viscount can form a thousand knights and an army of ten thousand."

"The Earl can form a 10,000-strong knight order and an army of 100,000 men."

"The Marquis can raise a hundred thousand knights and an army of one million."

"The Duke can form a million-man knight order and an army of tens of millions."

"This is an open-faced rule that cannot be violated."

As long as it was within this prescribed scale, the nobles were free to decide how they wanted to form the knights and private armies.

Sheehan wanted to complain.

"Even if you don't have the front, is it possible that there will be millions of dollars in the back?"

As far as the Knights are concerned, even the Kingdom Knights have less than 100,000 people, and even if a marquis has the right to form a 100,000-level knights, so what?

Does he have a way to get his hands on it?

Not to mention the duke, the idea of forming a million-man knight order and an army of tens of millions is not a joke, right?

Sheehan was furious.

It's just that Sheehan also understands that this is just a boundary, as long as it is used to restrict those small nobles who have a relatively large number of private soldiers, and the big nobles give them the right to look good, as for whether they can get together with this scale of knights and troops, it depends on their ability.

And Sheehan's words...

"In view of your two achievements, the kingdom has decided to grant you the title of viscount directly."

Rosie said to Sheen.

"The viscount can form a thousand knights and an army of 10,000 people, and enjoy an annual offering of 10,000 gold coins, that is, you can receive 10,000 gold coins from the kingdom every year as an offering, in addition to getting a house in the noble district, but that house is chosen by the kingdom for you, if you are not satisfied, you can also choose to ask the kingdom for a thousand gold coins and go to the noble district to buy it yourself."

With Rosie's words, Sheen only cared about the offering of the 10,000 gold coins and the ownership of a house.

Because, it represents a meaning.

"Lao Tzu is not only a 10,000-dollar household...... No, it's a Wanjin household, and it has a house directly? ”

Is this the rhythm of being poor and becoming rich?

Rosie, who didn't know what Sheehan was thinking, continued to explain.

"After becoming an honorary viscount, if you want to serve in the kingdom, you can apply directly to the palace, and after checking, the kingdom will assign you a certain position."

"The higher the title, the better the position, and if you can become an honorary earl, you will directly hold a position of high power, and you will be eligible to attend the kingdom's council."

"Of course, you probably won't want to take the job."

Rosie introduces Sheen to the rights and privileges of being a nobleman.

This made Sheen suddenly feel that becoming a nobleman didn't seem to be a bad thing.

Even if he wasn't interested in a position or anything, he still felt that some rights and privileges could be had.

If not, why do so many people want to become nobles?

Especially...

"The kingdom has a clear rule that commoners are not allowed to marry side chambers, and only one wife can be married, and only merchants who have contributed to the kingdom can marry one more concubine."

"The nobility has the right to polygamy, but it also depends on the rank of knighthood."

"A baron can have a wife and a concubine."

"The viscount can have one wife and two concubines."

"The earl can have two wives and three concubines."

"The marquis can have three wives and four concubines."

"The duke can have four wives and five concubines."

"There is only the royal family, there is no limit, how big the harem is, then you can take as many side rooms, but the heirs of the side rooms do not have the right to inherit the throne, and when the kings of the same generation are decided in the future, their heirs will not be given the title of duke, only the children of the main family have heirs to the throne, if they do not ascend the throne in the end, they can get the title of duke, so the number of main rooms will not be too much, at most five."

When Lothy said this, she stared at Sheen.

And what about Sheehan?

When he heard that the viscount could take one wife and two concubines, he had already stood up.

"My loyalty to the kingdom is visible to everyone, so I deserve this nobleman!"

Sheehan's serious words made the corners of Rosie's mouth twitch, and she wanted to bite him twice.

Wasn't it quite tough before?

You're going to keep being tough! Soul light!
