038 Roast suckling pig
On the sea, there are pirates and foreign navies obstructing cargo ships, and on land, there are smuggling, embargoes, customs duties and other problems, and all the bureaus in the territory have to take money.
The intelligence network and connections outside the territory make the seemingly beautiful Adolf more famous than the average royal family, but it takes a lot of gold coins to maintain, at most another year, the territory income can not sustain so much expenditure, and the military strength and investment in technology must be reduced.
The bigger the power, the more troublesome it is to govern.
"Rickdo is a sorcerer?" Randall sat down and said casually.
"It is very likely that his physical strength recovered very quickly, and if you look closely, the originally weak body is actually just eating enough and gradually getting stronger, which is very in line with the characteristics of a physical practitioner. "Sleeping Bear Road.
"Don't practice badly, I'm only "two" now, and they are all of Moorish blood, is it related, I see you let those unmarried children of your family try it, find one with relevant blood, maybe the descendants of your family are all sorcerers, and the descendants are dyed black, so it's called a black bear. ”
Randall said deliberately, two days ago, some members of the Knights followed the navy to fight and took two islands off the coast, not to mention a ship, and they didn't even tow back the goods in a cabin, he thought, the eight CDs were divided among the officers and nobles, and he was counting on getting some profits back, and he was angry at the moment.
"Don't worry, this kid treats food as his life, just give him enough to eat. The sleeping bear only halfway back with a gloomy face.
Marrying a Moor, it's also thanks to Randall who said this, and if his status is lower, he can turn his face directly.
"How many pounds do you consume per day per ration?" Randall then moved on to the topic he wanted to ask.
"Nine... to ten pounds. Sleeping Bear was about to pause, and added another number, ready to make Randall bargain.
"That's one hundred and eighty gold coins!" Randall put down the teacup that had already been raised.
"I can show it to the people close to you. Sleeping Bear pointed to the Commerce Bureau officer who had been with Randall.
"Young master, I have already checked, the cost of the knights, I will solve it for you one by one..."
"Do they all have two mouths, two stomachs, two anuses, and even two zz. "Randall doesn't have a good breath.
The official forced a smile, "Actually, this kind of training intensity, nine to ten pounds, is not too much, including forage for war horses, and additional supplies for non-commissioned officers, which have to be subdivided..."
"You are a commercial bureau, you really know, so you simply enlisted in the army and came to this regiment as a quartermaster. ”
"You're laughing, young master. Randall raised his voice as the officer continued to explain.
"Nine to ten pounds, really?"
"There are a lot of people who eat a lot. ”
"You will call people to me, and give me food, and if you can't eat, you will stuff me, and fill all the holes in your body, and do this every day, and you are not allowed to go out, for a week, and when the total amount is calculated, you will not leak at all, and I will give you fifty pounds according to this weight, and if you have thirty pounds, I will give you fifty pounds!"
Randall said this, and the official took three steps back, not daring to say anything more.
"Seven pounds! Randall was very unhappy, after losing his sight, all the easy things were no longer easy, and he couldn't see anyone's facial expressions change.
The person in front of him, if he doesn't make a sound, he doesn't even know if he is dead, and the sense of powerlessness often descends, and this advantage is slowly disappearing.
"Seven and a half pounds, maybe you can try, beans, eggs, fish sauce, milk, these can be eaten less, not a big problem. "Sleeping Bear needs more than half a pound, and this half pound can give him at least fifteen more gold coins a month.
"You're going to eat me up! Half of the posts are paid from my pockets... Forget it, this big war, behave well, raise troops for many days, and use it at this time. From nine to ten pounds to seven and a half pounds, Randall's anger finally subsided.
He knew in his heart, there was meat and vegetables, seven pounds a day per person, which was already a very large amount, and the officers of the Blue Lion Knights, including him, a martial arts teacher, scraped money from him all the time.
He said to himself, "I'm too good to you...... ”
In the past few years, Randall has treated the noble officials with great courtesy, and has used extremely tolerant remarks to talk to them, hoping to develop the territory together.
Yes, everyone is extremely faithful, but as they become richer and richer, selfishness also increases in the invisible time, and it is almost proportional to loyalty!
There are more and more gold and silver and foreign imports in the circulation territory, but can the people of this territory really enjoy it completely? Randall was depressed.
During the meal, he took a bite of the dish on the table, "This beef is too hard, it gives me a toothache, I will lend you the chef of the Moonlight Palace for a few days, they are all my people, and you will be happy to eat." He stopped, and the servant next to him immediately handed over the warm tea that had already been prepared.
"Seven and a half pounds, two gold coins a day, and a dowry that will be spent, and two hundred gold ......coins are missing from the officials who are going to pay Aragon. ”
After the break, the afternoon begins with lighter exercises. Randall didn't leave, parked the carriage a little farther away, and listened to the officials in the car report the account, but it was not the one just now, and Randall instinctively took advantage of it, replaced him, and found a new one.
Seeing that the young master did not leave, these people of the knights did not dare to relax, and worked harder than in the morning.
The officers of the Knights, raising their voices, began to teach, hoping that Randall would hear his efforts.
“...... Before all kinds of hurting weapons were common, people used their natural bodies to delve into various fighting techniques to kill enemies, and each region was different. It can be simply subdivided into two kinds of martial arts: group and individual.
In terms of team skills, I'll start with the two strongest empires. The most famous Mamluk legion of the Persian Empire, this legionnaire, from the first day of joining the regiment, the scimitar does not leave his body, and even sleeps with him, the elite, responsible for protecting the Persian royal family.
They are in groups of three to five, divided into small teams on the field, supporting each other, very powerful, when they collide and disperse, they are immediately designed for single combat, very strong, scimitar skills, our territory only includes two sets, it is difficult to practice,
And the Byttin Empire, the most famous is the Holy Armor Legion. Legend has it that the founding emperor Constantine, who dreamed of the apocalypse, asked him to start a new religion, so the Church of Light in the territory developed and changed into the Monroe religion with his support.
The Holy Armor Regiment is a silver cross as a chest medal, covered with armor, and specializes in practicing riding and horse combat, which is a dream for infantry.
In our territory, there is no such a legion with a long history, and the training of group martial arts, like other Gallic nobles, swords, guns, bows, etc., is taught evenly. As for the wrestling, grappling, boxing and other offensive skills, the young master has ordered someone to collect them, and in the near future, you will be lucky to see ...... newly built library. ”
In fact, Randall just casually agreed, these subordinates who are keen on martial arts, gave them a dream of building a martial arts system, he thinks that under the powerful protective gear and attack weapons, a child can stab a strong man to death, plus holding a musket dream, he does not want to spend much effort on the development of individual martial arts, and even often reminds these officers that only training team combat skills that can kill people is enough.
However, the Eurocontinental martial arts competition is still in a very prosperous state, and the knights and nobles love to show off in the competition, so the individual martial arts are still in the stage of prosperity, which affects the training methods of the military nobles and officers.
Randall admits that he has no military talent, and he can't tell which of the organization, command, weaponry, soldier quality, and number of people affects combat effectiveness the most, so he only strictly intervenes in one thing, so that the soldiers are fed, and does not force his subordinates to follow the training methods known to him in later life.
After the hourglass of the timer outside the car shook to the other side, the driver reminded, "Young master, I stayed for almost two and a half hours." ”
"Let's go, go to the next place, and see how we cry poor. ”
After Randall left, about two hours later, Sleeping Bear also finished teaching the battle skills, and said to everyone, "Tomorrow will start the march with weights, the training literature left by the Roman Empire mentions that you have to walk forty kilometers a day, go back today and enjoy it, and I will ask you more from tomorrow." ”
Near dusk, Rictor first went to the knightly etiquette training, mainly to learn to speak.
The way to learn is between the beds, of course, and this method also dates back to Roman times, when the Roman Empire overthrew countless alien races, and the barbarian aristocracy who could not speak Roman was as despised as criminals.
It took a lot of exploration for foreigners to find this way to learn the language quickly, and it was passed on.
The person who arranged the course found a few more women for Rick, and he began to teach love words, and in just a few days he had mastered a large number of words between the beds, and every time he learned a fixed number of words, he would "unlock new positions", but these women were too thin to suit his appetite, and they could not be replaced, because they were all female employees with great teaching experience.
The clock struck eight times in succession, and when it came to eight o'clock in the evening, he was free, and the first thing he did was to go to see the painful Weber.
When Rictor arrived, he saw that Weber was pale and was fighting with several people, and he was in pain, so he volunteered, "I'll help!"
"Good brother!" Weber from the bottom of his heart.
After a while, Webber was worried about Rictor, and after fiddling with a group of centaurs, he turned his face away.
only to find that Rickdo's voice is a bit strange!
"Ahh
When the bell rang in the middle of the night and the woman went back to rest, Webber hurriedly asked Ricto, "Are you alright?"
"Yes, great! I'm still a little hungry!"
Three days later, Weber's face was yellow and thin, and he finally got rid of the nightmare, and with Rictor helping him share part of the affair, he finally didn't go crazy, and even collapsed.
And Rickdo, who was originally enjoying it, also said falsely under the double training day and night, "I'm so tired, it's a hundred times better than practicing a sword, tired, woman, don't touch it again." "Hands and feet are shaking as well.
Weber let out an "um" with all his might.
The two rested in the bathhouse for a long time, and helped each other back to the house, where Rictor lived in the same room with him, and they hired two maids to cook and clean and take care of the housework.
The main dish that night was a dish of "roast suckling pig", and the two of them took a look at it and vomited wildly.
