Chapter 159, Who will be the earl?
Hearing Kyle say this, Lord Earl's face suddenly became gloomy, and with a wave of his big hand, a crisp slap was directly slapped on Kyle's face.
Said angrily: "Bastard! Only the Duke can mobilize the Black Armor Regiment!
Kyle was also stunned by his father's slap, he would give his father whatever he wanted, and he would actually slap himself because of such a sentence.
The earl said coldly: "I warn you, don't even think about the affairs of the Black Armor team, let me cut off your feet once I find out! I don't care what method you use, at the latest this afternoon, I want to see that person, otherwise, you go back to the family fiefdom and become a little rich!"
With that, the Earl snorted coldly and walked towards the Duke's Palace.
"Yes! Father......
Kyle covered half of his face, reddened, and a seed of resentment had been planted before he knew it.
Turning his head to look in the direction of the Shunfeng Chamber of Commerce in the southern district of Roland City, his eyes were full of resentment.
......
"Didn't you go out with that very bullish man, and why did you come back so soon?"
As soon as he returned to the Shunfeng Chamber of Commerce, Andalia's voice sounded behind Caesar.
Caesar shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, how are the preparations for the opening of the business?"
"Almost, we haven't officially opened yet, but there have been a lot of orders, and the hot air balloon has been passed to the imperial capital in the Chamber of Commerce in Trier City!"
Andalia propped her chin, looking a little bored, and continued: "The Roland Empire is very interested in our hot air balloon, and once thought about buying it in large quantities, but I refused, although on the surface they are very talkative, but I always feel that ...... Secretly there may be some action. ”
Caesar nodded lightly, Andalia's worries are not unreasonable, the appearance of the hot air balloon has restored Atlanta to the peak of the year, and the volume of transactions is stronger and more terrifying than in the past, Caesar doesn't know how much he can earn just by charging fees.
This is still the case in the uninhabited prairies of the northwest, let alone the three empires in the east?
"Hot air balloons can be sold, you can send them a few directly, but the fuel recipe must be kept!
The manufacture of hot air balloons is not difficult, even if Caesar does not take out the drawings, with so many elite talents in the Roland Empire, it is very fast to dissect them.
But the fuel that makes the hot air balloon rise is the most important, even if they research something in the ready-made fuel, but without the formula that Caesar learned on Earth, it will never be able to replicate.
"We reached an agreement with the official side, except for the official, its
None of his hot air balloons are for sale, they are all leased, and the process is exactly the same as that we do in Trier...... The official side also gave us a choice!"
Medusa crossed her long legs, leaned back on the high-backed chair, and said softly: "The fuel for the hot air balloon, the Roland Empire can officially do without it, as long as we provide it all the time, but in the same way, they hope that we will not open the hot air balloon business to the other two countries!"
Caesar's eyebrows raised, not open to the other two countries?
In other words, the Roland Empire intends to eat alone?
But in the current situation of the Triple Alliance in the East, even if they agree, the other two countries can't help but want to get a piece of the pie when they see this kind of cross-era product.
"That'...... What benefits does the Roland Empire give?"
Speaking of this, Medusa's eyes lit up, and her eyes were full of curiosity: "The person who negotiated the conditions with us that day said that as long as we want, the Roland Empire can give you the title of earl, but ...... But there is no fiefdom, and our chamber of commerce can reduce taxes for three years!"
Tsk, a noble title, plus a tax deduction, this condition is quite tempting.
Caesar, they are just merchants, and on the territory of the Roland Empire, people who want to check your Caesar's family background can soon find out.
Maybe Atlanta is too far away from here for the Roland Empire to be officially found, but it is certain that Caesar must not be a local!
That's why the Roland Empire will use this kind of interest to try to impress Caesar, but Caesar has no interest in the nobility at all.
If nothing else, if Caesar was not the lord of Atlanta, he might have agreed directly, but his identity determined that he could not accept such benefits from the Roland Empire.
Rather be a chicken head than a snake tail!
A good lord is not right, he came to the Roland Empire to be a so-called nobleman, what the hell are you kidding!
Just when Caesar was about to get Medusa to reject the Roland Empire, he suddenly saw the girl in a sexy maid costume standing quietly in the corner, listening to them without saying a word.
Caesar suddenly changed his mind.
The corners of his mouth slowly raised a smile that he hadn't seen in a long time.
It's the kind of cheap ...... Very cheap smile!
The last time Carlo saw Caesar's smile was when he pitted the necromancer Saruman in Atlanta.
"Miss Carter, please tell the official people of the Roland Empire, we have agreed to the matter, but the candidate for the earl must be designated by ourselves, and whoever we specify is who it is!"
Caesar chuckled.
Medusa nodded: "No problem, they also said that anyway, they can give a title of earl, although there is no fief, but it is a real noble, we can distribute it ourselves,
Who's going to be this nobleman?"
For the Roland Empire, no matter who is the earl, it is no problem, this is just a name.
There is no position in the empire, and there is no fiefdom, but you can receive a small amount of money from the imperial treasury every year.
As a promising person in charge of the Shunfeng Chamber of Commerce, the annual salary of an earl may not be as much as that of a part-time worker.
For such a famous earl, there is naturally no problem for the Roland Empire to canonize it.
It's just that Caesar is not interested in the name of this earl, Andalia is not interested, let alone Queen Medusa and Tyrell.
Carlo...... Hehe, Carlo himself doesn't have a good impression of the aristocracy, so naturally he won't be interested.
Since the name of the earl has no effect on Caesar, then the name of this earl can only be given up.
But for whom?
Although the title of this count had no rights and no fief, it was ostensibly only a fixed 'salary' every month.
But the other abilities of the earl's title still exist!
For example, canonize a knighthood three levels lower than yourself!
In other words, an earl can be canonized as an imperial knight.
In the aristocratic circle, the ranks from the highest to the bottom are dukes, marquises, earls, barons, viscounts, and knights!
Although only a knight, but ...... Also an aristocratic one.
Taking 10,000 steps back, here in the imperial capital, no one cares about a knight with the title of knight, but what if this knight goes to some relatively remote places?
For example, in a small village or a small town, the knight's rights are higher than that of the city lord or the village chief!
Because he is a nobleman canonized by the Empire!
That's why nobility is sought after by all.
Moreover, the function of the title of earl is more than that, according to the imperial decree of the Roland Empire, the earl can recruit private troops!
Although the number of members of this private army is limited to 500 people, which nobleman's private army does not exceed this number?
For Caesar, in addition to the above two reasons, the title of earl has a more important role.
This effect may not have the slightest meaning to Caesar, but it means a lot to someone in the Tailwind Chamber of Commerce!
"If I'm not mistaken, if the slave status is regained the title, it will have the official name again!
For a while, everyone's eyes were on the maid girl.
Alice...... Are you interested in being a countess?"
