Chapter 147 Attending the Marquis's Funeral
On this day, Wei Ya, An Lina, and Qiao Qingqing practiced in the Warcraft Forest for a day, absorbing a large amount of Warcraft essence, and their magic power soared. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Bai Xue also ate a lot of magic cores. Then Via returned to the Lord's Mansion in Fire with two stunning beauties and Snow White.
As soon as Via returned to the Lord's Mansion, he received a report from the maid, and Greenwood, the lord of Greenwood City, came and waited for Via in the living room. Via then went to the living room.
In the living room, Greenwood, the city lord of Greenwood City, was wearing a luxurious blue silk dress and sat on the main seat. Via walked in and said, "Lord of the city. ”
Green said, "I'm here today for two things, the first is to collect taxes from you. According to the laws of the principality, you, as my lower nobleman, are required to hand over to me a tenth of the taxes you receive. Via, this town of yours is really prosperous, with a huge population, a lot of arable land, and you have set up checkpoints to collect customs duties, and the tax revenue you get this year must be amazing. ”
Via said, "The total amount of taxes I have received this year is more than two thousand three hundred gold coins, so I will give you two hundred and thirty gold coins." ”
Green was overjoyed. Each of the other nine towns in Greenwood City was able to give Green a little more than twenty gold coins a year. However, Via offered two hundred and thirty gold coins in a single town, and the gap was too big.
The income of the Lord of Green City mainly comes from the taxes of the various streets in the city of Green Forest City. With a population of about 200,000, the city of Green Forest City is very prosperous, and it can provide about 3,000 gold coins in taxes to the Lord of Green City every year.
Via took out two hundred and thirty gold coins from the space ring and handed them to Green. Green happily took it, counted it, and confirmed that it was correct.
"The second thing, and it's a very big thing, shakes the whole principality," Green said. Our Greenwood City belongs to a county, and this county belongs to a marquis. Now the old marquis of our marquisate fell ill and died, and his title and domain, rights, and army passed to his son, the new marquis. Now all the counts and viscounts of the entire marquisate have gone to the center of the marquisate with generous gifts to attend the funeral of the marquis. I'm also going to the funeral of the Marquis. Viva, come with me. ”
Via said, "Okay, I'll go with Lord Green to the Marquis's funeral." ”
Green said, "You prepare, come to my City Lord's Mansion early tomorrow morning, and we will set off together." ”
Green walked out of the Lord's Mansion and went back to his Green Forest City City Lord's Mansion.
The next day, wearing a blue silk dress, wearing a legendary-level long sword, and holding a top-grade longsword, Wei Ya rode in a carriage and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion in Green Forest City.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Via met the City Lord Green, and then rode to the center of the Marquis with the Lord Green in a carriage. The carriage that Via and the Lord of Green City rode in was very luxurious, and it was four fourth-order thunder horses that pulled the cart, and the coachman who drove the carriage, that is, the owner of the carriage, was a fifth-order powerhouse.
Such a luxurious carriage cannot be owned by the Lord of Green City. It was the new Marquis of the Marquisate who sent many of these luxurious carriages to transport the various city lords to the funeral. Because the distance was very long, it was necessary to take such a carriage to reach the center of the marquisate quickly.
Reima's speed is fast. Via and the Lord of Green City rode together in such a luxurious carriage, and after only one day's journey, they arrived at the center of the marquisate, White Horse City.
The White Horse Castle covers a huge area, and the walls are extremely long, spreading all the way to the horizon. The walls are extremely high, reaching a height of more than 100 meters. The gate of Hakuba Castle is a large iron gate that is tens of meters wide and dozens of meters high.
Via and Green rode into Whitehorse in a luxurious carriage and galloped through the streets of Whitehorse. The streets of Hakuba are very busy, with a lot of pedestrians and high-end shops. Villas of two or three floors are located on both sides of the street.
The luxury carriage drove to the center of the city, outside the Marquis' Palace. The Marquis' Mansion is very luxurious, covering a huge area, like a city within a city. There were many generals with numerous armies guarding the Marquis' Palace.
The luxury carriage drove into the Marquis' Palace and stopped at the square of the Marquis's Palace. Via and Green rolled over and got out of the carriage. Then an ordinary-looking maid in white came up and said, "Please come with me to the new Marquis." ”
Via and Green followed the maid through the Marquis's Palace. The Marquis' Palace was very, very large, and Via walked for a long, long time before finally coming to a group of buildings. Via and Green followed the maid into a house and into the living room of the house.
In the living room, a very handsome young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a luxurious purple dress, was sitting on a luxurious velvet chair. A hundred or dozens of richly dressed men and women were kneeling before this young man.
Green walked in with Vea. Green knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, and said, "Lord of Green Forest City, Viscount Green greets the new Marquis. Via also knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said, "Baron Via, the lord of Bathing Fire Town, a subordinate of Greenwood City, greets the new Marquis. ”
The very handsome young man said, "All those who came to my father's funeral were counts, viscounts. What qualifies a little baron, a lord of a small town, to attend my father's funeral. Green, why did you bring him here?"
Green said, "Your Excellency the Marquis, his name is Via, and he is the one who invented the waterwheel, and that very good wine. ”
The very handsome young man said, "He invented the waterwheel, and that kind of good wine, so he is somewhat qualified to attend my father's funeral." ”
A hundred or so men and women around him all looked towards Via. Watermills they are clear. Because of the invention of the waterwheel, many dry fields were turned into paddy fields, and the income of each territory doubled. Now watermills have spread all over the world. The kind of very good wine, which they have also tasted, is very tasty, and they are very obsessed with this fine wine.
Green took out a necklace from his pocket, which sparkled and was set with a very large diamond, very beautiful. "This is a gift from me, this diamond is very large, this diamond necklace is worth three thousand gold coins," Green said. ”
Three thousand gold coins, this is the income of the Lord of Green City for a year.
The handsome young man nodded and said, "This gift is okay." You little viscounts, little city lords, can't come up with very valuable gifts. ”
At this time, the white-clothed maid standing aside took Green's gift.
Wei Ya took out a top-grade longsword from his spatial ring, and this top-grade longsword emitted a blue light. Via offered the superb sword and said, "This is my gift." ”
The handsome young man looked at Via's gift, smiled disdainfully, and said, "The best grade long sword, this gift is really not good. But I'm surprised that you, a little baron, could come up with such a gift. ”
At this time, the white-clothed maid on the side took over Via's top-grade long sword.
