Chapter IV: Promulgation of new decrees
Early in the morning, the whole city of Roester was boiling, and almost half of the civilians gathered in front of the notice board to confirm the authenticity of the above decree.
"It's impossible!
"Incredible, the new earl is such a good man!"
————
From August 3, 621 of the Holy Empire, all serf taxes in the Welsh Territory were changed to 50%, entry tax, inheritance tax, mill donation and other taxes were abolished, and the market transaction tax was not changed in any way.
Decree modified: Wells Richer (Earl)
————
"Long live the Earl!"
"Long live the Earl!"
I don't know who shouted it, and for a time the whole city of Roster sounded this kind of slogan.
Lei Zhe, who stayed in his manor, couldn't help but laugh happily, this is what he wants, this is only the first step, once the farming of these serfs returns to normal, he will immediately announce the second benefit.
"Brother, and then!"
Then Snow White ate the witch's poisoned apple. ”
"Wow! Guess what's wrong with Snow White!"
"She, she, is she dead?"
"Does Eiffel want Snow White to die?" Looking at the half-sister Lei Zhe in front of him, he did not reject it, these are all his sisters, Eiffel is only one year older than Erin, and it can be regarded as an existence recognized by his mother.
This also allowed Eiffel to get rid of the status of an illegitimate daughter, and the fate of the illegitimate daughter of the nobility is very tragic, after all, living in high society, no one will admit that kind of lowly existence.
Shaking his head, a pair of big black eyes flashed with tears, the tears in the corners of his eyes were about to come out, Eiffel endured that he didn't cry, Eiffel inherited his mother in terms of hair color, it was a rare beautiful black, and his little face looked unusually soft.
There are some feelings of mixed East and West, the other party's mother Lei Zhe has seen them, and there are some Oriental beauty feelings, and it is precisely because of this unique beauty that Tolter, the earl who loves his wife deeply, forcibly marries the other party into the door.
"Lord Earl, Lord Viscount Thanny asks to see you. ”
"Huh?" There was no information about this person in his head, and these nobles under his own hands, Lei Zhe, had not yet had time to understand.
"Erin go play with Sofer, my brother has something to do. ”
"No, I want to hear Snow White's story!"
"Erin, be obedient! Brother has business to do!" Sophie looked at the little Erin in Lei Zhe's arms with a small face very seriously, the little girl's deterrence was still very effective, Erin pouted and could only jump out of Lei Zhe's arms.
"My brother will be back soon, and when I'm done, my brother will take you out to play. ”
"Go out? really!" Erin's eyes lit up, she hadn't left the manor since she was so big, so she naturally wanted to see what the outside world was like.
"How could my brother lie to Irene, wait for my brother to take you and Eiffel out to buy delicious food, Eiffel take care of Erin!"
"Yes, brother!"
"You girl. Lei Zhe smiled bitterly, this elder brother sounded quite funny, especially looking at Eiffel's pretended serious little face, only a year apart, Eiffel's education was obviously much stricter than Erin's.
"Adolf, what kind of person is Phenifine?"
"Lord Phenefine is a very capable person, the land assigned to him by the lord is very well managed, Lord Phenifine has a total of eight barons, and recently wants to set up a new baron, I am afraid that this time I have this intention. ”
"New baron, I have the right to be a baron?"
"Well, of course you have the power to appoint barons, except for the title of viscount or above, which requires the appointment of the king, and you can reward other titles in your domain. ”
"Eight barons, that is, forty knights, this guy's strength is a bit exaggerated. ”
Secretly smacking his tongue in his heart, he only has sixty knights for an earl, and forty for a viscount, although he understands that those knights are loyal to him, but he always feels a little hairy.
After all, those people don't eat their own.
"See Lord Earl!"
"Why did Viscount Lenfen come to me?" Lei Zhe waved his hand, walked to the chair and sat down directly, this middle-aged man who was a little short and chubby looked very kind and a little cute.
But a person with such exaggerated strength is certainly not an ordinary person.
"The earl is newly established, and his subordinates immediately set off from the territory overnight after learning about it, and they wanted to come early to congratulate, but the distance was still delayed for some time. ”
"How did you know that I became an earl?"
"This ......" Renifin was stunned, such a stupid question The earl actually asked, it can be said that it is very normal for them to have secret agents in the city, and it is completely normal to receive news in advance.
"Haha, just kidding, I'm going to have a banquet, you should stay in the city for a few more days. ”
"Yes, Lord Count!"
"Did you bring all these things?"
"Well, it's full of curiosities, and I've collected some considering you might like it. Looking at a large box beside him, he smiled slightly, he had put some thought into these things.
glanced at Lei Zhe indifferently and then took his gaze back, a box of wood carvings and toys, who are you fooling.
"He doesn't like it?"
In his heart, making the new earl happy was the first step of pardon, but Lei Zhe didn't look happy.
"I would like to thank Mistress Lennifen. "Damn Jil, everyone else is giving precious jewelry, and this product is so stingy to give this thing.
If he knew what Lei Zhe was thinking now, he would definitely cry on the spot, but he had spent a lot of effort to get these toys, and considering Lei Zhe's age, he would have thought of buying these curious items to please him.
"Uh, where. ”
"Is there anything else you can do?"
"It's gone. With an embarrassed smile, Phenifine couldn't understand the sixteen-year-old young man in front of him, and he swallowed back the topic he wanted to raise, the new earl had just taken the throne, and if he had too many requests, he would definitely not be pleasing to people, Phenifine was not a fool.
"How did this fat man give this thing?"
"Uh. Adolf on the side smiled bitterly, glanced at the items in the box, and then smacked his tongue, among which was a plaything he knew, the price was as high as thirty gold coins, and he didn't know how much it was when the box was full.
But in the eyes of the new earl, it became this thing.
"Let the boxes be carried to the backyard, Erin and Ashel should like it, and you bring all the viscount's materials to my study. ”
Back in the study, Lei Zhe studied, he has a total of six viscounts, each of whom has a different strength, this Shen Nifen is indeed a talent, from the four knight leaders in his hands to the current eight knight leaders, how he fooled his father for the time being.
But the 2,000 gold coins he sent last year are really staggering.
"This fat man is quite business-minded. ”
