"The largest fighting ever took place in Ortlenburg, and the local clerk's report reported that the death toll was approaching 300. The garrison and the city defense army did nothing www.biquge.info pen "Fun", and allowed the local civil forces to swell and conflict. The new lord of the city, Wren, did not stop the conflict either. The scholar in the court took the news he had just received, stood respectfully in front of His Majesty the Emperor of this empire, and read it softly.

The Orlando Empire has lasted for 371 years, and there have been two extremely serious civil wars, the "Armed Taxation Case" during the Orlando II period and the "Reduced Succession Case" during the Orlando V period. Civil wars consume a lot of national strength, but they are of great benefit to the continuation of the rule. The high concentration of money and power strengthened the centralization of power. If it weren't for the outbreak and victory of these two civil wars, Orlando might have changed from a complete sovereign country to a feudal federation at this time.

At this time, Orlando VI was lying on the soft collapse of velvet, his eyes slightly closed, and the heavy crown was thrown by him on the foot pier beside him, enjoying the temperature brought by the magic furnace, humming comfortably.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and the entire exquisite and luxurious study seemed to light up in an instant, and the scholar lowered his head deeply to show his respect for His Majesty the Emperor.

"Wren?", Orlando VI pondered for a moment, chuckling, "is it a boy from the Alcanian family? ”

A drop of sweat escaped from the corner of the scholar's forehead, and he did not dare to answer the words of His Majesty the Emperor.

Last March, the Golden Scepter Noble Patriarch died on his sickbed, and the young patriarch seemed to be far inferior to the former Imperial Prime Minister in terms of personal prestige and skill. The entire imperial capital is surging, and there are not one or two nobles staring at the power of the imperial prime minister.

The state, in fact, is a magnificent building built by a group of the strongest nobles, led by a group of weaker nobles stepping on a group of commoners. For such a powerful position as the prime minister of the empire, almost all the nobles who have the right and conditions to compete have a peeping heart. This includes the Thorn Family, Arcania, who are also golden nobles.

It's just that no one thought that the less than forty-year-old Gandwen Spitsnow, the new heir of the Golden Scepter family, would defeat all his opponents, take the throne of the imperial prime minister into his arms with lightning speed, and successfully inherit everything from his father, becoming one of the three most powerful people in the imperial capital.

In this political war, many families fell because they stood on the wrong side, and many nobles benefited greatly because they stood firmly on the side of the Golden Scepter family.

Alcania, on the other hand, is on the unlucky side.

The reason why Orlando said that Wren was lucky was because before leaving the imperial capital, Wren had been lying in the Cathedral of the Holy Light for treatment. He was severely cursed and assassinated, and the physical damage didn't matter, but the real death was the inexplicable curse, which almost killed Wren. Fortunately, he survived, and as soon as he announced his cure, he was kicked out of the imperial capital and sent him to a chaotic place like Ortlenburg.

This is one of the rules among the nobles, you can shoot against opponents of the same nobility, but only once. Needless to say, if you miss, then you are not allowed to make a move because of the same thing, otherwise you will touch the nobles and will be crusaded by all the nobles.

As Orlando VI, who knew most of the secrets in this incident, he naturally knew how terrifying that curse was, let alone an ordinary person, even the Divine Family might not be able to withstand it. It was a curse on the soul, and there was almost no way to dispel it, only to resist and persist through willpower. Out of a thousand people who have fallen under such a curse, it is very fortunate that one person can resist the past.

So, isn't Wren a lucky guy in the eyes of Orlando VI and more?

"Now that he's paid the price of his mistakes, there's no need to target him anymore. Orlando VI was a very wise fellow, although in the eyes of the common people this emperor was absurd, but no nobleman dared to really treat him as a fool, "In the future, about the affairs of Ortlenburg, it will be enough to report once every three months." This time...... He was ordered to be reprimanded once, without being too formal, and told him that since he had become the lord of Ortlenburg, he should do his job well. ”

The scholar nodded, keeping it in mind.

Orlando thought about it and shook his head with a smile, Golden noble, hehe.......

Wren, who was far away in Ortrenburg, naturally didn't know that what had just happened was already on the Emperor's desk, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

In Alma's apprehensive mood, Wren finished his lunch and invited the eldest sister of the top three forces in Ortrenburg to sit with him in the garden and enjoy a moment of peace in the afternoon.

The rich fragrance and warmth of black tea brought people a great sense of happiness in this late autumn, and Wren looked at the slightly bleak but undefeated scenery in the garden, and said: "You see, in the summer, there must be a hundred flowers blooming here, but they disappear in a blink of an eye. No matter how beautiful the flowers are, they only have a summer scene, what is the difference between them and people?", he put down the teacup in his hand and sighed, not knowing whether he was lamenting the withering of those flowers or the impermanence of life.

"Sometimes I admire the gardeners and gardeners who always make the place look good according to the season. They don't even have to think and wait for a long time to change the scenery at the beginning of the seasons and make it beautiful all year round. ”

Alma's brain was running at super speed, and her brain formed a whirlpool, and she carefully considered every word of Wren's words, deducting every word, only feeling that the self-proclaimed shrewd brain in the past was a little unable to keep up with Wren's rhythm. She took a deep breath, hoping to impress the nobleman who danced quietly in the most sincere tone, "My lord, Alma is willing to be a tool in the hands of your gardener and take care of the beautiful scenery for you. ”

This is a sign of loyalty and allegiance, Wren glanced at her with a smile, rubbed the bronze ring in his hand, and nodded noncommittally, "I heard that Big Sister Alma's business is doing very well, and it is one of the best in the entire Bell Province, right?"

Alma squeezed out a smile, "Thanks to your compliment, my lord, it is. Many people take pride in having the skilled women I have trained. Of course, all this is so insignificant compared to your career!"

"The imperial capital asked me to come here to manage the city, naturally hoping that I would manage her better. If a city wants to grow and grow, it cannot do without economic support. I walked around the city a few times and found that many places were dilapidated, the public facilities were badly damaged, and the people living at the bottom were destitute. I'm worried to see this, and these are all reflections of the true face of a city. "I asked some passers-by that they hoped that at least they would be able to maintain food and clothing, and at the same time hope that the city would not be so dilapidated. ”

Alma was agitated, and immediately reacted, it was Wren who was looking for her for money. If she wants to lose her sincerity, she naturally has to show something, it is useless to just say it with her mouth, only the real benefit is to let this city lord who does not see rabbits and eagles know her loyalty. She immediately said, "I'm willing to donate a ...... No, two hundred gold coins are available for you to fulfill your ambitions. ”

According to the exchange standards of the major chambers of commerce after the beginning of autumn this year, 200 gold coins can be exchanged for about 22,000 silver coins, and about 26 million copper coins, which is equivalent to about 13 million purchasing power.

In this world, that's definitely a lot of money. However, Wren knew very well that two hundred gold coins seemed like a lot, and for these giants who completely controlled and monopolized a certain industry in a city, two hundred gold coins could only make them feel painful, far from breaking their muscles and bones.

Wren behaved indifferently, and the more frightened Alma became, thinking about the news she had not yet received, and her entire net worth in Ortrenburg, she gritted her teeth and said, "Every year, I will give the same donation to support your administration. ”

Wren nodded, "Then I will thank the eldest sister Alma for her contribution, and after these troubles are over recently, I still have a small matter to discuss with the eldest sister." ”

Alma didn't even dare to do so, and after sitting for a while, he took his leave. Leaving the City Lord's Mansion and standing outside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, she glanced back at the majestic manor and sighed faintly.

Two hundred gold coins are not much, and if you can buy a peace, it is not too expensive.

She didn't know that these two hundred gold coins were not even a fart in Wren's eyes.

The profits brought by the monopoly far exceed the value of these two hundred gold coins, several, ten, or even more! In Wren's heart, this kind of monopoly business can only be done by him, the city lord, and anyone else who dares to touch it is to touch the tiger's ass and seek death! Including Alma, once Hut and Les are eliminated, he will have to deal with Harvey and Alma, and their existence is destined to damage the majesty of the city lord's mansion. If they are willing to cooperate, Wren doesn't mind giving them a sip of soup to drink, and if they don't know what to do, then send them to the God of Light.

Let's briefly talk about the problem of late updates these days. In the early years, the family bought two houses, which were restoration buildings at that time, which belonged to resettlement houses, and were originally planned to be demolished and relocated later, so there was no real estate certificate. As a result, a series of changes led to the construction of new houses around the restoration building without demolishing it. Now that area is included in the government's demolition plan, and if you don't have a property ownership certificate, you won't be compensated in the future, so you've been running this thing these days.

Everyone must know the urine sex of the government unit, whoever advocates who presents evidence, you say that the house is yours, then you will come up with evidence. I've been running this thing for the past few days, and I already have eyebrows, and it should be about the same for a few more days.
