"I'm still saying that, we have to expand this town into a small city and focus on the city's entertainment industry......!

"I'm asking how it can be done on our current terms!" Gray quickly interrupted what he was about to begin in his tirade. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wright didn't have the slightest bit of annoyance at Gray interrupting him, he was obviously prepared for Gray's question, "We should cancel the duties on the caravans!"

When he finished saying this, he glanced at everyone present, and it was not surprising that these people all looked at Wright like idiots, Gray didn't like people who spoke unpleasantly like this, but he didn't show his displeasure.

Wright glanced contemptuously at the other three except Gray, and continued, "In doing so, we will attract a large number of merchants here, and if we can, we should crack down on the rampant bandits in the territory, so that there will be more and more traders in the territory!"

"Whew!" Wright took a sip of his coffee, and Gray waited patiently for his next words.

At the same time, the Baron should encourage the townspeople to open more entertainment-related shops, which can appropriately reduce the commercial tax related to the entertainment industry. ”

Gray just listened, and didn't rush to make a statement.

"But we can't let it overflow, so let's put it this way, we should set some levels for these entertainment stores!"

Gray's heart moved, he thought of something, but it was very vague, he didn't like Wright's character very much, he stopped talking and asked, "How exactly?"

Sir Wright was very satisfied with Gray's reaction, and after a smile, he asked, "Lord Baron, what do you value most when you go to entertainment venues?"

"I've only been to the tavern!" replied Gray.

Sir Wright was stunned when he heard this, then turned his head to look at Rand, and seeing that the other party also had an ignorant expression, he squinted and patted his forehead, as for Rena and Master Mick, Sir Wright automatically ignored them.

"Lord Baron, you ought to have fun, it's a good experience!" said Sir Wright, in a serious manner.

Rena glanced at Gray, furrowed her little eyebrows, and then stared at Sir Wright in disgust.

Gray tried to be patient, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Well, Sir Terrah, you just have to tell me how I need to cooperate with you, and you will be fully responsible for the development of commerce in the realm." ”

Gray's words made Wright's small eyes light up, as if they had become a lot bigger, he looked at Gray seriously, looking at the other party's serious and serious expression, Sir Wright also put away his smile, he gently put down the cup in his hand, and seriously applied a noble etiquette, and said: "I will write a report, and you will see it on your desk by tomorrow morning at the latest!"

Gray nodded in understanding.

"Lord Baron, I think your butler should learn a little more aristocratic etiquette!" Maester Mick reminded Gray.

Gray nodded, "These are the trouble for the bachelor to take the time to teach Wren, you know, I trust him very much, it is impossible to remove him!" His current housekeeper is Wren, Mrs. Wren is temporarily recuperating because she is pregnant, and Gray specially built a villa for their husband and wife in the aristocratic district.

Mick was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded, "Of course! ”

Gray turned his head to look at Sir Lant, he hadn't said a word since he came in, Gray knew that he didn't plan to say anything, which was a bit inconsistent with his current position, but Gray didn't care, he was in this position now, all for the sake of balancing all the forces in the territory.

This impromptu meeting made the sky-high arrogance in Gray's heart dissipate a lot, and he became calmer.

The finances of the territory were a big problem, and he didn't have the same deep heritage as other families with a long heritage, and he could come up with an astronomical sum of money at once.

Thor can help himself very little, he may have the same problem as Gray, at most provide some troops, but the supply problem must have to be solved by Gray himself.

Gray even wanted to make up his mind about the two thousand soldiers of Count Lockton, but this could only be thought of, and he could never do it.

Just as Gray was in a hurry, the Earl of Lockton, who was far away in Cousson City, and the Grand Duke De Rooney had reached a secret deal! Thousands of miles away, in the royal capital, Suke City, several cabinet ministers in the palace chamber were also arguing over a matter.

"The Knights of the Kingdom Guard, responsible for the security of the entire royal capital, how can it be handed over to a hairy boy who has just turned twenty years old!" was the voice of the Marquis of Yaro, the Minister of War, who uttered this sentence completely.

Marquis Yarrow, Minister of War, Eden Yarrow, their family has been in the army for generations, and there are a total of eight military ministers in their ancestors, who belong to the powerful figures in the army of the human kingdom.

"Grand Duke Rimu is the younger brother of His Majesty the Kingdom, and he is the best candidate to be the head of the Knights of the Guards!" said Earl Gara, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with a smile.

Earl Gara's full name is Tus Gara, a former commoner, was the logistics chief of King Laubert's army when he was young, and because he was good at financial management, he was favored by King Laubert, promoted all the way up, and finally became his lieutenant.

Later, in the war for the accession of King Laubert, the Count of Garra, with his excellent business acumen, used only a quarter of the kingdom's territory to support the expenses of a full army of 200,000 for three years.

After Laubert succeeded to the throne, he soon replaced the previous Chancellor of the Exchequer as the new Chancellor of the Exchequer, and then King Laubert's annual personal expenses of millions of gold coins were all provided by the Earl of Gara.

Count Gara is indeed a rare talent, and during his tenure, the commerce of the human kingdom has developed rapidly, especially in recent years, and the annual tax revenue near the royal capital has more than tripled as before.

However, many of Count Gara's measures were detrimental to the interests of a large group of nobles, and if it weren't for the protection of the Kingdom of Laubert, he would have died many times.

Marquis Yaluo snorted coldly: "He can't even manage his own palm-sized territory, how can he manage the Guards Knights?

A hunchbacked bachelor next to him, named Baote, he was eighty years old, and he could still run back and forth, and as soon as Marquis Yarrow said this, he said 'cough' twice: "Marquis Yarrow, pay attention to your words!"

Marquis Yarrow glanced at Paute, and said sarcastically: pedantic old man!

The chief magician of the court, Boya Tree, hung high as if he had nothing to do with him, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"And who do you think is the most suitable, Marquis Yarrow?" said Count Garra, still smiling.

Marquis Yarrow's eyes widened: "Viscount Daig Lanna, the commander of the First Legion, his military achievements are outstanding, and his qualifications in the army are sufficient, he is the most suitable to be the head of the Knights of the Guards, and no one is dissatisfied!"

Count Gara took a sip of coffee, which was already cold, and he laughed: "Isn't that your brother-in-law?"

Marquis Yaluo nodded: "Yes, but his military merits and qualifications are completely sufficient, the army is not as simple as you think, don't think that you know everything in the army by playing logistics supplies!"

Count Gara avoided the topic: "Then this issue will be put on hold for now, and we will discuss it another day!"

"Still on hold, a lot of things have accumulated in this time, and if you don't make a decision, it will soon be messed up!" Bachelor Bert reminded the two ministers.

Since the death of the Prime Minister, Archduke Ella, the normally functioning court cabinet has not gone so well, and the nobles in the royal capital have begun to doubt the competence of other court ministers, and many nobles have even publicly criticized their inaction.

"Knock! knock!" there was a sudden knock on the door, which silenced the two people who were arguing in the chamber.

"Come in!" Marquis Yarrow shouted first, as if he were the master of this council chamber, and Count Garra glanced at Yarrow with a cold glint in his eyes.

It was Baron Harson, the captain of King Laubert's guard, who walked to the conference table in a few steps and said, "The king asked you when the Grand Duke of Mikla will arrive in the royal capital?"

When several people heard this, they looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and didn't know how to answer.

Since the death of the Prime Minister, Archduke Ella, the king has sent numerous royal orders to the West, asking his former military brother, Archduke Mikla, to come to the royal capital, but there has been no response.

Ha Xian looked at the expressions of the people and knew what was going on, so he said, "His Majesty has decided to go to the west in three days, so you can get ready!"
