Dealing with aristocrats who are selfish by nature, Vincent is not blindly attacking.

Like kings and princes, who hold the power of the country, there is nothing to satisfy their appetite except to expand the territory, and there are irreconcilable contradictions with the demons who occupy the territory, no matter how great the sincerity is, it can only be changed to be peaceful, and it is impossible to really live in harmony.

Of course, under the system of the kingdom and the vassals ruling the world together, it is the norm for the king not to have a fief.

In the border areas, which had their own strength and geographical advantages, and which the king could not control by force, financial resources, in-laws, and diplomacy, the nobles lived a life of complete self-government, and it was a sign of their loyalty to listen to the tune and not to listen to the proclamation.

However, this group of nobles is also the barrier of the kingdom, and they have fought for the life and death of the previous kings, fought bloody battles against various enemy countries and barbarians, and paid an unimaginable price to gain the trust of the royal family, occupy distant lands, and expand the territory of the kingdom.

Because it is too far away from the king's capital, the power whip is beyond the reach of the whip, and the king's gold coins are not enough to spend by himself, so in addition to titles, honors and marriages, there is only one way to decentralize power.

This time, in order to provide the king with the military obligations of vassals, the noble lords on the border worked tirelessly, with their precious armies and low-level vassals, under the leadership of Prince Lingus, to launch a surprise attack, wanting to give the new demon little lord a little color, and use their strength to tell the lord Vincent how the two sides should interact in the future.

If he takes back a little land, the other party swallows his anger or admits defeat in defeat, and the prince will become the first hero of Herod to regain lost land from the demons in thirty years.

According to the nobles' own confessions, this is the preparation of the prince for the death of his brother and brother in the future after noticing the deterioration of the king's health.

Even if it is a prince, in the face of his uncle's great prestige of defeating the demons, he should know the times and be a handsome man, and take the initiative to give up the throne.

If you are smart, don't let the prince work hard, and when he pulls the army to hunt in the wilderness, he also bothers to carry out a drill with a yellow robe.

Unfortunately, King Gadlin II's health was still deteriorating, and if the prince's plan was carried out, the seizure of a few border villages from Vincent, even a few that could not be found on the map, would cause a frenzy of praise in the country of Herodes.

Unfortunately, Vinson said that although the Coastal Territory was poor and small, not an inch of land was superfluous.

In addition to Lingus's own vassals and political allies, the support of the border nobles was an important reason for the escalation of the conflict, and this group alone provided Lingus with 2,000 knights and 10,000 infantry.

The reason why they are willing to serve the prince is that it must not be said that they are only loyal to the monarch and patriotic and hate the demons, but from an economic point of view, this group of people cannot get any benefits from the demons except land.

The prince's direct territories are all the heartland of the kingdom, and even if they are defeated new territories, they will not be looked down upon, but those lands can bring direct benefits to the border nobles, so they are easily agitated.

Compared with the natural one, it is easy to expand, but the land in the north is barren, and even if the land in the south is a little short of water, it is also a warm and fertile land, which can make the nobles on the border very tempted.

The prince wanted a name, the nobles wanted land, and the two sides hit it off and mobilized nearly 30,000 troops to invade on a large scale.

If it weren't for the fact that some stupid nobles were reluctant to expend their own forces, and had to rely on mercenaries and cultists to infiltrate to meet them, Vincent probably would not have noticed the military intervention of the Herodians so early.

As for how Miss La Nina was kidnapped into the territory of the demons and almost killed by the demons as cultists, Vincent also got the answer from the mouths of some parties - some people not only want to abandon their fiancées who have no use value, but also want to blame the demons for creating a reasonable excuse for themselves to make war.

Believing that mercenaries and cultists can maintain discipline and complete a big operation related to the fate of a country in a low-key manner, the IQ of the nobles is really worrying, and the best thing this group of guys does is to kill and rob, and after being discovered, the whole village was killed and burned by them.

The mercenaries alerted Vincent so much that the prince had to send his own knights

Sweetwater responded, fending off the territorial army before the large army gathered on the border.

However, they must not have expected that the original nobleman of Herode, Schalke, had two hearts, not only did he not eat the pot pulp to welcome the king, but also let his son ventilate the news and assist the demon army in burning the village, causing the knights to suffer heavy losses.

The earl's family was exiled on trumped-up charges, and many years later, he asked Schalke, who was so downtrodden that he had to rebel, to cooperate in the fight against the demons because of the country's righteousness.

Let someone help, or restore his reputation and title first, and then show real money and military protection to prove his sincerity, right?

Not only did they not pull out a dime, but they also let the militia go out and be sent to death as cannon fodder, so how could they get the allegiance of others?

After losing the war, he began to fabricate rumors again, framing Schalke and letting his daughter sell her hue to please the demons, and deceived the king who came to liberate the same clan with a trap prepared in advance.

All those who spread rumors and spread rumors, Vincent did not intend to convince education, and planned to send them to Big Brother to work hard.

In the Blue Shore Territory, there will not be a slave who will have the strength to chew the root of his tongue after finishing his work.

In the same way that the former nobles were treated, the royal family of Herodes was both using and guarding against the frontier nobles.

After this defeat, Prince Lingus really put the responsibility for provoking the war on the border nobles, and he became a moderate person who rationally restrained military action and prevented military escalation.

For this kind of powerful people who are inconsistent with the outside, Vincent has also thought of a way to deal with it.

Since the prince wants to make a feud between himself and the border nobles and cause a long-lasting conflict, then I will not let you get your wish.

Therefore, while the two sides were talking, Vincent summoned some nobles who bordered or were closer to his own territory in advance, and arranged for them to wait next door to the meeting place.

I don't know who is troublesome, and I used sound transmission magic to spread the conversation between Lingus and Vincent to the next room, which can be regarded as a hornet's nest.

The aristocracy's allegiance to the royal family was fed to the dogs, and Lingus's clever words made everyone gnash their teeth.

In order to convince everyone, Vincent arranged for them to sit in on two other occasions, and each time Lingus made the point that the frontier nobles were greedy and belligerent, and that they had come to put out the fire and were implicated.

How can the nobles accept such a sanctimonious villain?

Vincent's attitude, by contrast, is quite different.

The ransom is still insisted on, because the ransom is the financial income of the territory, and the lord cannot be exempted from it out of responsibility.

However, the lords of the Primordial Territories, despite their victories, always openly showed a gesture of encouraging commerce, especially in favor of the normalization of trade on the borders, and were willing to negotiate openly with the nobles of the territories on the borders. Five

"It's better to do business than to fight, it's better to get rich than to die, and it's better to win than to lose."

Although some of the border nobles were not too high in title and their territory was not rich, they took advantage of the location of their territory and signed a bilateral trade agreement with Vincent that they were embarrassed to let outsiders hear, and they were allowed to reduce taxes.

Everyone knows that even His Majesty the King has extremely weak control over the territories of the border vassals, and if they are willing to do business with other territories, if the royal court does not plan to tear their faces with the vassals, they will definitely not be able to control it.

Recently, Vincent used the manpower that did not need money to renovate Sweetwater Village, demolished many dilapidated houses, and built several spacious and decent halls in the village, which served as the town office and the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce in Sweetwater Town in the future.

In the hall of the chamber of commerce's headquarters, it is full of local specialties brought by merchants from Silver Dragon Castle, and in addition to goods from the southern seaside, there are also various interesting toys made by Vincent in the city, prints from the Boulder Chamber of Commerce, woodware from Dolan Village, leather goods from Nuer Village, spirits and glass crafts from Sweetwater Village.

Of course, weapons such as the Swiss Happy Knife and the Khitan Happy Crossbow are not on display.

The nobles, who had sworn that they would never trade with demons even if they were executed, saw that the decoration style was simple and elegant, and the furnishings were exquisite and elegant

The hall couldn't help but admire, and they had a new understanding of the taste of the demons.

It's not like a merchant's showcase, it's like a collector's museum.

Toys are indeed new and interesting, such as the kind of football that local children are playing, and it is worth the money to get a few things for children to play with, but everyone understands that the most valuable goods are the sweet water cellar and glassware, if the two are combined, it will definitely lead the trend in the aristocratic circle of Herode.

Wine glasses, glass after glass.

If you can get the distribution rights of the glass bottle in Herodes, the losses caused by this failure will soon be recouped, and you will get richer and richer.

Even if the distance is far away and the nobles who can't trade stably with the demons can still use the mentality of not being able to eat grapes and complaining about the sourness of grapes to condemn others for forgetting their righteousness, but the nobles on the border who can deal with the coastal territory can't let go of such a big temptation no matter which one.

If you say that if you don't fight, you can't make a deal, then after you finish fighting, hurry up and make a deal to avoid the escalation of the war, wouldn't it be beautiful?

In the face of interests, the disgust brought by racial differences, historical grievances, and border conflicts can be forgotten.

For these nobles, who were anxious to make a fortune, Vincent first carefully assessed the situation of their territory through conversation and investigation, and then responded positively to the image of starting trade.

Trade is stronger than war, Vincent welcomes the peace-loving, territorial law-abiding Herodian to do business in the territory, and is willing to provide protection for the merchants, who can trade in the foreign trade market of Sweetwater Town in the early stage, and then further expand the scale of trade and deepen the level of trade after the relationship between the two countries is stable.

Gold coins, grain, minerals, magic stones, treasures, talents, the lord will not refuse.

This time, however, Vincent no longer proposed the purchase of slaves, but instead proposed a new term for labor dispatch.

Of course, this difference in concept is that everyone is an aristocrat, and everyone understands it, and no one delves into this point.

Vincent also kindly reminded him that if there was anyone who didn't want to see it and was inconvenient to dispose of, he could give it to him, which caused the unanimous approval of the border nobles.

There is no need for Vincent to deal with this kind of person, and he directly throws it to Big Brother Shule, ensuring that there is no return, out of sight and out of mind.

Under the protection of the plateau mercenaries and demon armies, border security will become safer and more stable than anywhere else.

With an undead overseer who is loyal only to the liege, the merchant will not have to worry more about being blackmailed and defrauded, and all the efforts will be rewarded.

The normalization of trade is the first step in the relationship between the two countries from the trough to mutual benefit, and only by replacing the army with caravans can the two countries achieve lasting peace.

However, if anyone dares to breach the peace of the border, the lord Vincent also assures that the Herodian will pay an unbearable price.

In fact, this threat is not necessary at present, all nobles currently have a curse on them, and they dare not disobey Vincent's wishes for ten years.

Vincent also did not expect the Herodians to turn enemies into friends with him, but the Herodians were not monolithic, and there were always people who would remain friendly with him for the sake of immediate interests, which was another insurance to contain the power of the Herodian hawks.

The most important thing is that his identity as a god's chosen one determines that he can't rely on war to obtain the favor of the gods, and only by continuously strengthening the manufacturing industry, and marketing the items that people could not hope for in the past, and the market-oriented commodity cabbage, which is continuously exported to various countries, can the belief of the craftsman god spread throughout the continent.

At the same time as the export of goods, the coastal manufacturing that carries the artistic value is used as a business card to promote those kingdoms and races that are prejudiced against the demons, invisibly changing the concepts of other races, and enhancing hard power through trade, and enhancing soft power with cultural output.

In that way, after three years, the demon clan should also have a new understanding of the abilities of the six princes, and Vincent, who has always been a fringe of the royal family, will become more comfortable in his own clan.

With less than two years left on his birthday, Vincent has never felt so fulfilled in his life.

Every night, the undead and monsters began to scream uncontrollably, squandering the magic stones to bathe

The moonlight, accompanied by the long songs of the orcs and the strange sounds of musical instruments, echoed around the camp and the village.

The beautiful blonde knight beside Vincent would also take off her armor and dance in front of everyone with a red face and strange costumes made by the lord, accompanied by novel and brainwashing music.

Many people who came from Silver Dragon Castle were extremely excited about this, and all the hard work along the way paid off at this moment.

This is a rare live performance of Ninia, the first idol of Silver Dragon Castle, and people thought that they would never see it again.

With the help of the god of art, Vincent could easily write a score that the natives could understand, and all the musicians learned the art of accompaniment more quickly, so that as soon as the music started, the whole audience was inspired by the music, and the hearts of the war-strained were all relaxed, and they were immersed in the cheerful brainwashing music that they had never heard before.

Today's music was created by the lord again, and it is said to be called "Little Apple".
