87_87410The forces of the Duchy of St. Munn and Keanu in Smtoo were forced to withdraw by Danas V, but the merchants of Smtoo who had escaped told Twilight.

Their reason for suing Twilight is to indulge the army in attacking their Chamber of Commerce in Snar, which is also a bad thing, and when Twilight sends people to attack Snarr, she pretends to be a robber with such a thing in mind.

They want to tell Twilight about attacking their merchant premises, and of course Twilight wants the Smto'o Chamber of Commerce to come up with evidence, otherwise they will be framing the dignified Baron Darius, and how can the Chamber of Commerce come up with definite evidence to prove that the people who attacked Snar Town are Twilight's soldiers.

Not only that, Twilight also claimed that he had defeated the bandits who attacked Snar Town, and that the merchants led by the Black Eagle Chamber of Commerce of Smtoo had framed him as an excuse to expel the merchants of Smtoo, and if they resisted, they would be killed on the spot.

At the same time, Twilight is also expanding her army, increasing the strength of the Dreadnoughts to 15,000 in one fell swoop, including 5,000 permanent soldiers at Fort Watch, 3,000 in Snarrtown, 5,000 in Graven, and the remaining 2,000 in mobile forces.

Of course, Twilight personally sent a letter to ask the eldest prince Dreyus when recruiting troops on a large scale, after all, a small kingdom baron actually has a force of 15,000 people, although he is also a lord of a land, but it is still too much, if Twilight does not ask for instructions first, and wait until the others sue him in front of the king, he will be passive.

In addition, in a series of actions, Twilight's seized funds are also rapidly depleting, not because of the large-scale recruitment, but because of the large number of customized equipment, of which the six giant crossbows placed on the head of the Overwatch Wall alone cost Twilight nearly 30,000 gold.

Fortunately, at this time, the Windranger Chamber of Commerce controlled by Benjes was able to provide him with a steady stream of funds, and the materials of the Black Hawk and other chambers of commerce that had been seized before also came out one after another, which gave Twilight a great relief.

But this is obviously not a long-term solution, after all, the Watchtower has not yet been built, and the stone and wood are still enough for a while, but it is definitely not enough, and Twilight also has to renovate the structure of the Watchtower, and add defensive measures, according to Twilight's future ideas, the fortress will be built, and the money needed is huge, of course, this is all in the future, and Twilight also knows that she will not be in a hurry.

After the situation at Fort Watch, Snar, and Glaven is completely sorted out, the unrest in the Preto area gradually returns to calm due to the previous days, and Twilight has her eyes fixed on the smallest town downstream, Moonstream.

However, at this time, the Simberola Chamber of Commerce in Moonstream Town took the initiative to find Twilight.

There are only two of the most famous chambers of commerce in Simberola, one is the Aoneng Glorious Chamber of Commerce, and the other is the Violet Chamber of Commerce, both of which serve the official organization of Simberola, that is, all the state-owned enterprises in people's mouths, and most of the money earned is usually used for research and construction, and the person who found Twilight this time is from the Violet Chamber of Commerce, led by a sexy and intellectual woman.

At this time, Twilight is looking at the sexy and intellectual woman standing in front of her with a pair of glasses, a purple robe, and big wavy brown hair, and when Twilight looks at the woman, the woman is naturally looking at Twilight.

The half-ringing woman was the first to speak: "I really didn't expect that the lord who single-handedly stirred up the changes in the entire Preto would be so young."

Hearing the woman's words, Twilight retracted her gaze and said unhurriedly, "I don't know who this is from the Violet Chamber of Commerce?" What's the matter with me?"

"Lord Lord, my name is Lilith, and I am the steward of the Violet Chamber of Commerce in the Preto Region, and I came to ask you one thing this time." Lilith said in a slightly muffled voice.

"Oh, sit down and talk!" Twilight gestures to a nearby chair and says to Lilith and her companions behind her.

"I'm here to ask your lordship if it's time to do something to Yuexi Town!" Lilith looks at Twilight.

"What do you do to Yuexi Town, Lilith is in charge, don't talk nonsense, Yuexi Town is my territory, what should I do?" Twilight says with a confused expression, as if she doesn't understand what Lilith means.

"Lord Lord, don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, sit and watch what the Lord Lord did when he came to Preto can be said to be a plan and a move, one link after another, I don't believe that the Lord will let Yuexi Town go." Lilith said with a serious face.

"Really? So what do you want?" Twilight raised an eyebrow, noncommittal.

"We want to live in peace with the lord!" Lilith said.

"Oh? What kind of peaceful coexistence?" Twilight says with a hint of curiosity.

Lilith: "We recognize your rule and pay taxes to you, but you can't interfere in our affairs in Moonstream."

"How much tax?" Twilight asks.

"Ten taxes and one." Lilith said without hesitation.

"That's it?" At Lilith's words, Twilight's mouth turns into a mocking smile.

"My lord, peace is precious, and we have bowed to you and recognized your dominance, isn't that okay?" Lilith looked up at Twilight.

Before Lilith's words fell, Twilight said coldly, "Of course not, Moonstream Town is my territory, when do you need to be recognized, who do you think you are?" Twilight asks word for word.

"Hey, we didn't want to have a conflict with you to come here, we really don't have to be afraid of you." Hearing Twilight's words, the purple-robed man next to Lilith speaks.

As soon as she heard her companion's words, Lilith knew that it was going to be bad, but Twilight couldn't help but laugh at this time, and then Twilight's eyes turned cold and said, "Violet is so majestic, my army will be stationed in Moonstream Town tomorrow, I want to see how capable Violet is."

"My lord, I think you misunderstood, we have no intention of being your enemy." Lilith hurriedly replied.

"I don't want to hear what you say, since I am now the lord of Prito, Prito will act according to my will, I can reduce Violet's commercial tax to ten taxes and three, but I must garrison troops in Yuexi Town, this is my bottom line, you have to agree if you agree, if you don't agree, we will send troops to let you agree." Twilight's words are slow, but murderous.

Hearing Twilight's words, Lilith's face became a little ugly, and after a while, Lilith let out a sigh of relief and said, "Lord Lord, I agree with your mention."

"What? Lilith, we can't say yes. When Lilith agrees to Twilight's request, the man next to her is furious.

"Shut up, you can do bad things." Lilith turned her head and glared at her companion and scolded.

Before coming, Lilith had already inquired about the taxes of the towns of Glaven and Snarle under Twilight's rule, the merchant tax in these two places is five out of ten, and the tax for the Violet Chamber of Commerce is three out of ten, so it can be said that it is already a concession, Lilith is worried that if she doesn't agree now, I'm afraid that when Twilight's army arrives, this treatment will be gone.

In fact, this is also Twilight's intention, after all, the Violet Chamber of Commerce came to the door, and some kind of Cheng dù is a voluntary surrender, of course, some preferential treatment should be given.

Now that Lilith agrees, Twilight immediately discusses the details with her.

The next day, Twilight directly sent 2,000 men to Yuexi Town, and took over the city defense of Yuexi Town very smoothly, and the merchants of Simberola, led by Violet, also cooperated.

When Twilight's forces take over Moonstream, a system prompt appears.

If the host is found to meet the requirements of the lord, the lord system is opened, and the lord himself can check the situation of his territory at will in the future.

With the prompt of this system, a territory appeared under the original attribute and skill bar, and Twilight paid attention to the territory column, and suddenly Preto's map appeared in front of his eyes first, and then the detailed description of his territory also appeared in front of him.

From here, Twilight can clearly see the state of his territory, but he can only see, and it is impossible to build it with his fingers like in the game, but it will at least give Twilight a general idea of his territory
