In order to show that he was giving preferential treatment to the vassals of the North.

Lynn thought for a moment before nodding and replying in the affirmative.

"Yes, as long as you are a nobleman in the north and swear allegiance to White Harbor City, I will consider it at my discretion, but the remuneration of the clerk cannot come from within the castle, it can only be issued by the castle, and the clerk only performs the management of daily affairs, and major decisions on the castle must be approved by the castle. ”

"Isn't the approval of White Harbor City the approval of the adults?" someone asked suspiciously.

Lynn chuckled, "In the future, unless there are major resolutions or military matters, I will let a team of officers in White Harbor make decisions. ”

When Lyanna heard this, her eyes widened and she said, "Officer of White Harbor City, do you plan to hand over the daily affairs of White Harbor City as well?"

Lynn glanced at the excited Lyanna, knowing what the hell she was doing, and nodded without concealing it: "Of course, when things in White Harbor are on the right track, I plan to recruit an affairs officer for White Harbor City." ”

Lyanna continued, "But don't you have a Master Hill, and in the future, there will be a Master from the School City to assist you." ”

Lynn looked at the back of the old bachelor who was lying on the bookcase and galloping with a pen on the left hand side, "Of course the old Bachelor Hill is fine, but he is old, and he should train a successor, and then spend his old age in peace, as for the school city, I don't plan to ask for new scholars sent by the school city, but I welcome the affairs officers to study in the school city for a period of time, and then come back as a bachelor to participate in the management of the castle's affairs." ”

"But the school city will not allow non-bachelors to go to study, and every new bachelor needs a letter of recommendation from the old bachelor to enter it after being approved. ”

Lynn did not answer this point, believing that the school's monopoly on most of the new knowledge might change in the future.

In addition to the Mint, with the Officer, Lynn finally proposed to build a fleet.

"The North has lacked a navy for centuries since Brandon the 'Ship Burner' burned down the Stark family's entire fleet. ”

Lynn felt the need to build a fleet in the North, one large enough to challenge Dragonstone and King's Landing.

As soon as he heard about the warship, Rooney's interest came.

As an observer, no one asked him for his opinion, but he felt that the lord's idea was really good, and he could already sketch that scene in his mind!

The Manchester United led by him was in front, and behind him was a fleet of thousands of sails, waiting for the command flag from the Manchester United at any time, pointing where to fight.

However, this time in the Battle of Widow's Hope, the lord did not send his Manchester United to carry out the mission, but some strange new warships appeared, it is said that the names of the battleships are Lip, Hot Spear and Chelton or something, I wonder if the commander of those warships will compete with him for the position of commander-in-chief of the fleet in the future?

Rooney wanted to knock on the side, but unfortunately the proposal had already been circulated below, stamped with the seals of the northern vassals, and handed it back to the lord on the high platform, while the old Maester Hill was still immersed in writing.

Instead of privately funding the construction of the Northern Fleet in White Harbor alone, Lynn proposed it at the vassal assembly and built it in the name of the North.

Actually, the reason is very simple.

To establish a sense of collective honor, it doesn't make a difference whether the name of the fleet is the North or the Gripen Legion in White Harbor, as long as the people sailing on the ship are Lynn's sailors, no one can touch Lynn's army.

Lynn's proposal is the same, even the clerk is not allowed to recruit a soldier, the squire can, but the power of the army will always be firmly in Lynn's hands.

Lynn built the northern fleet, is to let the northern nobles have a sense of sustenance, Lynn has no longer recruited army soldiers from their territory to supplement the army, the navy is built in the name of the north, at least these nobles can get the most basic sense of participation, otherwise these northern nobles because Lynn does not need to recruit troops from their hands, and there is no need to deal with any threats in the north, the soldiers in the territory are gradually declining, without the army, these nobles are easy to have a sense of emptiness, this sense of emptiness is the lack of honor brought by the loss of the army, Lynn is based on this consideration, set up the name of this fleet。

However, Lynn did not expect that this simple act of comfort would have a huge and far-reaching impact someday in the future.

In the subsequent vassal meeting, there were also other northern vassals who raised some of their own issues one after another, but there were no major issues, some people mentioned the signs of climate, saying that the weather seemed to be getting warmer and warmer, sometimes the sun was scorching, and even the snow left by last night could not be seen in the territory, and it was not at all like winter falling.

This was indeed an anomaly, and Lynn had noticed it, but it was an indisputable fact that winter was coming, and he didn't think too much about it.

Some vassals talked about the stupidity of the commoners, others probed Lynn's tone, and even talked about his nephew's eagerness to join the war.

"My son organized a detachment of lancers himself, all children, none of them over nineteen years of age, but all of them considered themselves to be part of the new Eagle Lion Cavalry. I called them a bunny bunny, and they laughed at me instead. No, they simply called themselves the Eagle Corps, and the feathers behind the arrows were all made of eagle feathers, and they sang the knightly way in their mouths, and they ran around on horseback. ”

Lynn thought it sounded like a great idea, but the Gripen Legion had to ensure that the bloodline was pure, and he had a psychological expectation that it would not recruit Northerners.

The meeting lasted from morning to afternoon, and in the middle of the meeting he sent the pock-faced servants to the kitchen to bring a meal of ale from the sister island, and every nobleman ate cheese, roast chicken, and brown wheat bread, or tore the chicken with his thick fingers, and talked politely.

With no formal agenda, the meeting became a banquet for the highest nobles in the North.

Two days later, the nobles from all over the country left White Harbor one after another, either on yachts, in sedan chairs, or on horseback, and brought them with a large number of men: knights, squires, minor lords and their wives, heralds, musicians, and a juggling troupe, and took them back from White Harbor.

These nobles, when they came, their flags and clothes were dazzling and colorful, and they were full of momentum and vigor when they left, and they were full of longing for the future.

Of course, the nobles also left the gold dragon and the silver moon to make up for the shortfall of the grain harvested in the previous season, which was the first tax collected since the implementation of the new tax policy in the new White Harbor City.

Paying taxes to White Harbor on a quarterly basis, instead of paying them every year, will become the norm in the north.
