Chapter 63 Territory

Exchanging a worthless crystal ball for a knighthood, where can such a good thing be found? Zhou Tian has no reason to refuse the transaction.

Therefore, after listening to Princess Lori's words at that time, Zhou Tian hesitated for a moment on the surface, and finally pretended to hesitate: "Five crystal balls! If you really want to sell it, even if you go to a small country to change to a duke. ”

"Can the duke of a small country be compared to the baron of our orc empire? Become the baron of our orc empire, you can get the corresponding treatment in any country, if it weren't for the fact that your crystal ball is too expensive, we don't want to spend so much money to buy it, do you think there will be such a good thing to find you?"

After listening to Princess Lori's words, Zhou Tianzi, who had actually agreed in his heart, nodded at that time and replied: "What you said also makes some sense, since this is the case, then I will agree." However, after nodding his head to agree to this transaction, Zhou Tian immediately said: "I have no opinion on the baron changing the crystal ball, but you have also seen the situation here, I need a piece of land to redevelop, so I, the baron, should always have a territory!"

Even if Zhou Tian didn't know much about the current situation in this world, he still knew that there was a great difference between the nobles.

Needless to say, the difference between the nobility of a large country and a small country, even if it is the nobility of the same country, there are actually three different grades.

First of all, the most powerful nobles, that are the top nobles like the royal family, they not only have great power in the imperial capital, but they seem to have no territory, but they have extended their tentacles to all aspects of the country, there is no power on the surface, but in fact, every word and deed can directly affect the entire country.

Secondly, it is natural that those lords who are outside, the nobles have absolute power in their own territory, although they are only lords in terms of title, but in addition to some rules and responsibilities that must be followed, in fact, those lords are in their own territory, then they are already like kings.

The most subordinate nobles are naturally those down-and-out nobles, they either spend money to buy the title, or the ancient family in the middle of the family, although they have the name of a nobleman, but in fact they do not have much power, if the upper echelons of the country look at them unpleasantly, and want to take back the title, such a nobleman does not have the slightest ability to resist, and giving up the title by himself is the best result, and a bad one may be directly wiped out.

Undoubtedly, Zhou Tian getting a baronial title was enough to make him satisfied, but it was obvious that he didn't just want to be an ordinary nobleman, and in the case that it was impossible to get the power of the Orc Empire, Zhou Tian directly asked for the territory.

Obviously, no one in the Orc Empire would have thought that Zhou Tian would dare to raise such an opinion beforehand, and it was not enough for a mere merchant to give you a title?

Because Zhou Tian's request was too sudden, so that after listening to his words, Princess Lori couldn't help but be stunned. But soon after she reacted, Princess Lori snorted coldly, and directly refused: "Impossible, most of the territory of the empire has been divided, and now my father is still worried about how to recover the noble territory, you are still thinking about the territory, we will not agree to this request." Moreover, although the anger of the Red Dragon King is difficult to provoke, as long as we are willing to pay the price, he may not do anything to us, and the crystal ball is not our only choice, so you should not make such unreasonable demands again. Otherwise, we'll have to cancel this proposal. ”

Listening to Princess Lori's words, Zhou Tian's heart inevitably had a wave of anger, after all, the other party repeatedly looked down on himself, he just made a little request, and even the two sides didn't have any discussion, Zhou Tian got such a reply, even if he knew that he had no status in the eyes of Princess Lori and their orc leaders, it still made Zhou Tian feel unhappy at that time.

"Wait for me, if Lao Tzu can buy an atomic bomb in the future, he will directly throw a few in your imperial capital. Zhou Tian, who was angry in his heart, secretly muttered to himself a few times, and finally could only hold back his anger and mentioned again: "You don't need much territory, as long as it can be used for us to develop, a territory like this only occupies one village at most, you won't even refuse to agree to this request!"

"This ......" Hearing that Zhou Tian only needed a village, Princess Lori was also a little hesitant at that time, after all, the territory Zhou Tian asked for was indeed not big, even if he had great power in that territory, it would not have much impact on them if the royal family gave up so much territory.

Seeing Princess Lori's hesitation, Zhou Tianer didn't say a word and pressed again: "What is a baron to you? And the value of five crystal balls, to put it mildly, can directly buy a city, you want to exchange the title for the crystal ball, there is no problem, but it is impossible to make a name without any payment! Besides, the reason why I am destroyed like this here is not because of your own reasons, now I only need a village as compensation, I can't look too much!"

"Okay, but this matter is too involved, and I have to inform my father and queen to give you an accurate answer. ”

"No problem. ”

After reaching an agreement, Princess Lori didn't say much to Zhou Tian, and without saying a word, she found a place where no one was there and used her own means to get in touch with Beamon the Great.

As a result, there were no accidents, Zhou Tian was right, a village was really nothing to the Orc Empire, and it was even far less valuable than a baron. At the moment, even the baron has already been given to Zhou Tian, so it is naturally not an unacceptable thing to add a village to make a territory for him.

In this way, not long after Princess Lori left, she saw her leading a fox-headed man back in front of Zhou Tian.

"Hello Baron Zhou, this is the proof of His Majesty's knighthood, and this is the ...... of your territory" There is no general proclamation procedure as in the novel, and in the current world, the power of the imperial power is not so great. After Zhou Tian reached an agreement with the Beamon clan, the messenger sent by the Beamon Great, the fox-headed man handed over the title certificate and the territory certificate to Zhou Tian, and left directly with a flying demonic beast at the suggestion of Princess Lori.

"Congratulations, from now on you are a nobleman of our orc empire. ”

"It's just a baron, and I'm nothing to you as a princess. After speaking, Zhou Tian changed the topic but suddenly said: "But you are not very kind to the Meng clan! Just exchange a worthless baron for five crystal balls for me, the territory given to me now is not only small, but this position is also a bit special!"

Zhou Tian said that suddenly, even Princess Lori, who had been mentally prepared, couldn't help but blush and felt embarrassed after listening to his words.

Why did Zhou Tian suddenly say something like that?

It all started with the location of the territory given to him by Beamon the Great.

At first, Emperor Beamon really didn't think about handing over Zhou Tian's territory, but was just going to exchange the name of a nobleman for five crystal balls from Zhou Tian. And this is still a decision made by Emperor Beamon after he has seen the crystal ball, in that case, when Zhou Tian proposed to make a village as a territory, although after finally thinking about it, he still nodded and chose to agree. But because Zhou Tian was not an orc, when he really gave him the territory at that time, Emperor Beamon still couldn't help but make some arrangements at that time, just in case.

In any case, Zhou Tian is not his own person, even if the territory he occupies is not large, but if he really wants to do something, it will be enough to cause some minor trouble to the orc empire.

And in such a situation, in a very short period of time, Beamon the Great also came up with a way to get the best of both worlds, that is, to divide a territory for Zhou Tian on the border.
