Among the entourage, the good-looking Marlene was covered with a veil and a few swords dangling there.

So the male villagers didn't dare to look more.

And Bran and Howard, who were wearing silk clothes, were also thrown out by several women, looking at them with seductive eyes.

Is it possible that there are "beauties in distress" or "cute girls" hidden in the fields and villages?

The answer cannot be said to be no, but it is also minimal.

Civilians suffer from heavy labor, diet, and poor hygiene, and as long as they do not leave this environment after the age of twelve, nine out of ten will be crippled - both men and women.

And culture is also an important part, and it is really difficult for illiterate people to have spiritual exchanges with nobles.

So a pair of grandparents can't do such a thing as a "night attack" or flirting.

Howard was dragged into the tiled house by a maid from the manor.

Bran was out directing the replenishment of water and forage.

The amount of gold and silver rubles is too large, and below it is a mixture of silver and copper coins called "krona", which is more divided into large and small krona.

The krona was a must-have in the pocket of small merchants, and below it was the duka (copper coin), which came in four types, the lightest denomination also known as the "penny".

Pennies are used exclusively for change.

The ruble, krona, and duka are the first currencies in Italy and the Mediterranean.

Bran took out a silver ruble and a packet of krona mixed with Duka coins as a reward.

The village is rich in wheat, and at dinner Bran also eats boiled wheat porridge, which is lighter in color and tastes worse than that produced on the estate.

Now the yield of fine wheat on the farm is not enough, and when more and more land can be mastered, Bran still has to make wine and trade wheat, under the splendid galaxy, sitting in the carriage, Bran leans on Marlene to talk about his plan, while accepting her to rub his head and serve.

Carol was also not far from the two of them watching the protection, occasionally picking up a water bag and drinking low-alcohol fruit wine.

"When I have returned to the kingdom, I will take the two most fertile lands in the kingdom as your and Carol's fiefdoms, and one day if you become a kingdom, and let you ride a horse, and in time you will be given all the troops of the horses...... Here you go. ”

It was comfortable to rub his head, and Bran's breathing became heavier.

Marlene slowly lifted Bran's head to her lap and looked at the stars.

The next morning, continue the journey.

When the village chief and his wife entered the tiled house, the fragrance that had not yet dissipated was faintly diffused.

"This is the real aristocracy, a hundred times better than those bullshit knights in the village, when they pass by the village to replenish, not only do they not give money, but they always have to steal some food and flirt with the young women of the village."

Raymond shouted loudly, holding back for a whole day, and now he was back to his usual volume. He also shouted louder than usual, to wash away the gentle image of the villagers yesterday towards him.

I'm Raymond, the lord of Rabbi Village!

After entering the room, the wife's eyes were attracted by the bed, and her hand slowly reached out.

There was a silky quilt on the bed, with a fine pattern on the quilt, which Howard had covered last night and had not taken away, which was considered a reward for the village chief and his wife, and such a quilt was worth more than five silver coins.

……

Every village is the same, except for the size of the population, and Bran is focused on the future.

As the city of Meath drew nearer, the footpath became more crowded, and the road widened to the point where it was possible to walk with the cars of the outside world, and the carriages of other merchant groups could be seen, staggering past and speeding with wool.

The peninsula wool industry is highly competitive, wool, leather, and woolen are the main trading goods in Florence, especially wool, but in fact, the wool produced in Florence does not account for the majority, but relies on imported foreign sources, and then processing.

Florence became rich because of its high textile technology and craftsmanship, and the wool merchants of Meate had the power to influence the price of wool on the peninsula, which in turn was responsible for forty and a half of the wool products on the mainland.

So in Florence, wool merchants were aristocrats who could manipulate state affairs, and Lady Meghan was one of them.

But the merchant aristocracy of the republic was despised by some of the old powers, believing that it was only the common people who wore bright silk, and their blood was still low.

The most respected "consul" of the republic, in their opinion, is the status of "grand earl".

Even now, Howard has never looked down on Meghan's status.

During the period of the Duchy of Venice, although there were close contacts with Florence due to trade, in addition to the intermarriage of his subordinates, each generation of the Grand Duke of Chaman was elected as a papal nobility (close to the Holy See), and the third Grand Duke became one of the most prestigious princes and lords in the world because he married the Pope's niece.

Or the daughter of a large Franconian nobleman in the north (a distant land ally who holds the commercial power of Central Europe) is also a good choice.

The black-haired lords of the Aegean region (Byzantine Greeks) in the south were no bad either.

……

The main body of the city was getting closer and closer, and on the fourth day, the group entered the meates.

Meath is a natural harbour town that has not been developed much and has excellent waterways for large ships to sail.

There are three tallest and most conspicuous buildings in the city, the "Grand Commercial Hall" where the aristocratic councillors work, the sixth floor is 19 meters high, the Grand Commercial Hall was not so tall, but after the power of the merchants was raised, it was added to it.

The second highest is the "Great Monastery", which is the most extensive and is a set of buildings.

The third tallest building is 14 meters and is the "Cathedral".

The monasteries nurture the clergy, and the churches serve as places of prayer for the people.

As a protectorate of the Holy See, the city archbishop of Florence was appointed by the Pope to reside in the cathedral and govern the diocese of the territory.

The reigning archbishop is Torrean Egger.

The second son of the count, he joined the Holy See at an early age and was an assistant to a cardinal, but the bishop lost the battle for the "Holy See", which forced Torreen to leave the Holy See and become a local bishop.

The forty-year-old Torreen has always wanted to return to power, but he is from a different faction than Luyo II, and unless Luyo II loses power, the prospects are not good.

As for the great monastery of the city, there were forty-four adult priests. Carter.

Heywood, who had been transferred from the Bishop of Rome to the faction of Pope Luio II, had recently lived in Rome and had little regard for the secular affairs of the monastery, and was on a par with Torrean.

The Holy See has knowledge, but also force.

Many of the members of the two secular orders, the Hospital and the Templar Order, were nobles who had lost their status, children who had no right to inherit, or squires.

By participating in the conquest, many people obtained new fiefdoms, which is the path that Bran followed.

At the end of the three-year period, he was confident that he would complete all the disciplines and was recommended to enter the Holy See, starting as a secular official in the Holy See.

The first time I set foot in Meate, the city has "97,000 people", and it is also the number one city on the mainland today.

In the eyes of the countryside and mountain people, it is simply a giant city in the sky, but in the eyes of Bran, who has memories of his previous life, it is a small township.
