Chapter 468: Coco's Dowry
The crown at the gate of the Coco Manor was crowded, and more than a dozen nobles came.
As soon as Coco and Randy went out, the nobles gave Coco a salute under the guidance of Sanjael.
Listening to the introduction of the old butler, among the more than a dozen nobles, there were not only nobles in the city, but the two leaders were actually the two khans of the Khiva Khanate and the Bukhara Khanate.
Thirsty Rock is now a city attached to the Khiva Khanate, which of Bukhara was to the south of the Khiva Khanate, and the two countries occupied the fertile riverine region of Central Asia.
Khiva is 1,200 miles away from Thirsty Rock, and Bukhara is more than 600 miles away from Thirsty Stone, and now there is no railway, no airport, and the two khans cannot fly.
I came here so early because I had come to visit Coco Manor before, and this time I used a return ticket.
The two Khans were much more informed than the old man Sanjar, and could read the newspapers that were a few weeks behind.
I have long known about the arrival of Coco a year and a half ago, and they all claim that the eldest princess is coming, and it is too late to meet and so on.
The two Khan kings were both from the royal family of the Later Xia court.
The Later Xia court claimed to be the Tang Dynasty and the Great Xia Zhengshuo, and theoretically speaking, these two nomadic Khan kings should have seen the eldest princess of the Divine Envoy of Light.
But in fact, the global empire of Datang is long gone, and Coco is now just the owner of a charitable foundation.
When the two powerful kings got the news, they came to meet them in a hurry, much to Randy's surprise, who had evolved into a political animal.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Sanja cleared his throat, "Ladies and gentlemen, our Su Mansion Steward Family has been guarding the territory and manor for His Royal Highness Coco for nearly two thousand four hundred years from the ancestor of Yuerdo down.
Even in the 1,000-year Dark Ages, our legacy has not been broken.
When the cataclysm occurred, His Highness's manor was spared and blessed the people near and far, and the land given by God has become famous far and wide.
Now that His Highness has descended from the Light God Realm again, our duty of guardianship has finally come to an end.
I would like to formally hand over to His Highness the property that he has been keeping, and I would like to ask you to bear witness. β
Randy shook his head, such a small manor was about the size of his own Bern manor.
Bern Manor is located in the capital of Switzerland, where every inch of land is valuable, and it is only 30,000 gold coins to buy.
In this remote place of thirsty stone, such a manor, even if it is decorated with gold and jade, how much can it be worth? Can you afford to make such a big move?
In Randy's eyes, Sanjay, who had never seen money, still had a serious expression.
"Originally, once His Royal Highness Coco got married, his territory in his mother's family would automatically disappear, and the Divine Envoy of Light would give a rich dowry.
The god of light made all the other daughters' fiefdoms do the same.
However, His Royal Highness Coco did not marry, but returned to the Bright God Realm. Therefore, His Royal Highness's identity as the lord of Thirsty Stone County has been retained, and Thirsty Rock County has always been His Highness's fiefdom to this day. β
it! Randy was blindsided.
And this rule? Well, according to the rules of feudal society, it seems that this is indeed the case.
So how much is the tax revenue of a county that lasts for 2,400 years? Randy feels that his knowledge of arithmetic is insufficient.
Sanjay then took out the sandalwood box that Randy had seen yesterday, "This is the handwriting of His Highness Coco back then.
It told the ancestors that she would not come back in the near future, and the taxes of the territory would not be needed, and she would give back to the people.
All the people of Thirsty Rock County have enjoyed two thousand four hundred years of tax exemption, all of which have been given by His Royal Highness Coco. β
Well, Randy suddenly sobered up again, and it turned out that he was thinking too much.
A note from Coco exempts the people of a county from taxes for 2,400 years, but Coco is a big loss, how much is this.
Even later, when Timur Khan ruled Central Asia, he always obeyed this will of His Highness Coco.
The people of this county have always enjoyed the gifts of His Highness, and everyone has to come to the manor at least once in their life to thank His Highness for his kindness.
For 2,400 years, the manor has received a large number of tributes from its lords, and there are five million gold coins left after deducting the money spent on repairing the manor and employing men, including our steward family. β
Well, it's pretty much the same, tribute, depending on the mood, the quantity can't be compared with the tax.
Five million gold coins, more than ten tons of gold, this is a huge amount of money. However, for Randy, who once had a net worth of three hundred tons of gold, it was still acceptable.
It was in this county that Timur the Great Khan was born, and he already enjoyed the kindness of tax exemption.
This is his hometown again, and it is understandable that he will continue to give tax exemption to his hometown after his power has grown.
Sanjar took out a master storage ring, "This is the income of the manor over the years, and it will be handed over to your Highness Coco now." β
Coco took the ring, put it on the equipment, and looked inside, uh, a lot of gold coins.
Randy thought that this was the end of it, that the housekeeper family had been so loyal and trustworthy for generations, but it would definitely be rewarded.
"Now, I will give us another commission from the God of Light."
And also?
"In the era of the Tang Global Empire, the Divine Envoy of Light guarded the empire for a hundred years, and at that time, all his other descendants had their own territories in the world.
Finally, the Messenger of Light sailed into seclusion in a saucer-shaped ship. At the time of leaving, our Sogdian Alliance still existed as a subordinate force of the Global Empire, and had always been the direct territory of the Divine Envoy.
At that time, our Tocharian ancestors, please tell the divine envoy how to deal with the direct territory.
At that time, the lord made a decree to leave the land in the river owned by the Sogdian League as a dowry to the eldest daughter Su Keke.
He prophesied that more than 2,000 years later, his eldest daughter would return from the Divine Realm of Light and ride a unicorn from the sky, and that the land in the river would be given to His Highness's husband as a dowry for the eldest daughter.
Until then, the Lands of the River were ruled by a global empire. β
As if by magic, Sanjar took out another crystal vacuum-sealed document, "This is a document signed by the Lord of Light Envoy, in triplicate.
One was kept in the archives of Constantinople, the capital of the empire, one in the Sogdian Confederation in Kangju, and the other in the estate. β
Coco took the document, it was a printed document, and if it had not been stored in a vacuum, it would have been destroyed long ago.
Coco suddenly covered her mouth and smiled, "Randy, you see, Dad's crooked signature is still the same in his hundreds." β
Well, the Divine Envoy of Light can predict what will happen more than 2,000 years later. Well, it stands to reason that Coco's dad shouldn't know about Coco riding a unicorn by now.
Now his father-in-law is only in his forties, and when he is in his hundreds, most of them will already know about Coco, and they will make any prophecies.
As expected, Coco's husband's family is basically my Randy, so this land in the river will be mine in the future?
Well, both Constantinople and Kangju have been destroyed in the cataclysm and are ruins, where will there be any documents?
Can this separate document, legally called orphan evidence, be legal evidence?
Even if this document is legitimate, will anyone listen to it?
No wonder the old man Sanjar called the two khans.
The naΓ―ve old man thought that the two khans could obey the will of the God of Light 2,300 years ago and hand over power?
For the sake of the throne, fathers, sons and brothers can kill each other, and the will of the oracle of light, which has disappeared for more than 2,000 years, will they listen?
Do you think these murderous and unblinking Khan kings will be as trustworthy and obedient as your butler family? Do you know that faithful servants like you are hard to find in the world?
Something unexpected happened to Randy.
Khan of the Khiva Khanate, Abud. Allah Khan and Muhammad, Khan of the Bukhara Khanate. Alim stepped forward in unison and bowed to Coco in unison.
"We are the descendants of Genghis Khan. Descendants of Jochi.
I am only the Jin clan to carry the heavens, the Tang Dynasty, the Great Xia Zhengshuo, and I am willing to obey the will of the Divine Envoy of Light, and respect His Royal Highness Coco as the lord of the river. β
