Black Iron Crown

Chapter 74 Logan's Action

After sending back the things that the old Lei Wente sent back, news spread that Leiner would ban the "power of the night" and a series of exorbitant taxes.

Everyone is talking about Reiner's actions. The residents are grateful for Reiner's actions. They pray to the Holy Father in heaven, so that they and their descendants can live in the territory of the Moreland family. Live such a good life.

Even Goldberg, who had just been brought under Reiner's rule, sang praises to him, and became even more heart-warming. People are always forgetful, and it is always faster to forget that you killed your father and enemy than that you robbed him of his interests. You can have a beautiful Living is everyone's pursuit.

In contrast, Reiner gave them such hope that after canceling this series of tax items, their lives will become much better than before, and they will no longer have to face the children at home crying and crying But there is no food to fill his mouth.

"Bless the Baron, my venerable, great, supreme, all-knowing and omnipotent Holy Father, bless our Baron!"

"Great! Thank you, Holy Father, for blessing us, allowing us to live under the command of Baron Rainer!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

"Oh, kind Lord Baron, I am willing to do everything for him, even die for him!"

The residents were grateful for Reiner's actions, and some even cried bitterly for it. They felt that the hard days had passed, and they would never have to worry about freezing to death or starving to death in the Lord Baron's territory.

He even included Reiner's name in his daily prayers, and even Reiner's prayer was also said.

The freedmen said that they didn't care about it. They didn't need to pay other taxes except marriage tax, poll tax, and agricultural tax. Their obligations were military service, labor, agricultural tax, and loyalty. Other taxes were It is aimed at the bottom serfs, and those people are the private property of the baron, and have nothing to do with them.

The knights are quite uncomfortable, and even have some resistance and dissatisfaction with this. Reiner's "rich and powerful" can not care about these incomes, but they are quite concerned about them.

Not only did Leiner not collect these taxes himself, even they were not allowed to collect them. They lost a lot of income for no reason, and they would not be happy to put it on anyone.

"Oh, I really don't know what the Baron thinks! Is this the virtue of the Holy Father's patron?"

"Sure enough, a child is a child. This is simply ridiculous. How could the Holy Father choose to favor such a person!"

"Damn it, is he trying to make us a bunch of paupers?"

The knights were very dissatisfied with Reiner's actions. In just two days, Reiner received seven or eight letters from the knights, and some knights who could not write even came to Morland Castle to protest against Reiner. .

But Leiner didn't give in, and he didn't rely on them. Taking advantage of the fact that he was not powerful yet, and the reforms would not touch too many people's fundamentals, he had to get these things done as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it would not be so easy to solve this matter later, which is why he persisted to the end even at the risk of his knights becoming disunity under the shadow of Earl Zhebo.

This series of orders by Leiner caused the entire Fort Murand and Fort Gol to fall into rumors. Almost all the knights united to put pressure on Leiner, hoping that he could take back this order.

But Reiner didn't care, with a systematic army as his backing, even if this group of people joined together for breakfast, he could still suppress it.

Leaving aside the much-talked-about Fort Morland, Logan was having a conversation with the cook in front of him in a small village near Fort Carn.

"Did you see? As long as you agree to my conditions, then these two silver coins will be yours!" Logan looked at the fat figure in front of him,

Said the middle-aged fat cook with almost all facial features squeezed together.

The cook stared straight at the two silver coins dangling in front of his eyes. He stared blankly at the two silver coins. At this moment, only money remained in his eyes.

"No, they will kill me! They will definitely send me to the gallows!" The fat cook stared at the silver coins, but his mouth was not vague. Money was a great temptation to him. How could he not want the cook's salary for five years, but he still only cares about the seriousness of this matter, so he still controlled the desire in his heart and said.

"Don't do this! I swear to keep you safe. In addition to these two silver coins, you can also go to Sir Sophie's territory to be a groom, squire, or even an apprentice knight!" Logan took back the two silver coins and filled them with Said to the fat cook in a seductive tone.

"You..." The fat cook became even more uneasy when he heard these words. What a temptation this is. Becoming a knight is something everyone dreams of in this era. How many bags in the fat cook's house are civilians. The cooks who serve the nobles are already smoking from their ancestral graves.

"Don't you want to be a squire or even a knight? Don't you want to change the fate of your family so that your descendants will also become nobles? Don't you want to be a cook all your life?" Logan said with a smile : "Now, such an opportunity is in front of you, as long as you do what I say, you will get what you want!"

The fat cook's face was full of struggles, and the facial features that were already crowded together became even more distorted. After a while, it seemed that half of his strength had been drained from his body, and he said weakly, "Okay... I am willing to press you Do what you say!"

"Great! What a wise decision!" Logan said, took out a small cloth bag from his waist pocket, and said to the fat cook: "As long as you put this in the food for Mrs. Kahn , you can get it all!"

"I will come to you when the time comes. Baron Sophie will not treat you badly. As soon as I receive the news of Mrs. Kahn's death, I will come back to you immediately!" Logan said.

He would not wait somewhere for Mrs. Kahn's death. As an experienced intelligence worker, ensuring his own safety was the first priority.

If the fat cook bought himself in retrospect and handed the poison directly to Mrs. Kahn, wouldn't his plan fail.

That's why he said that he would come back to the fat cook when the time came, instead of waiting for him here.

The fat cook nodded, and Logan took out five copper coins from his pocket, and said to the fat cook, "Hold it first, this is a deposit for you, you have to believe that Baron Sophie will not treat you badly!"

"Thank you, thank you sir, I will definitely follow your orders!" The fat cook thanked.

Seeing the fat cook wriggling his fat body and leaving, Logan also left here with a smile on his face. Of course he would not come looking for this fat cook. What awaited him would be the anger of the Kahn family after the assassination. Torture, and the one who bears the wrath of the Kahn family and other knights will only be him, and Sir Sophie who was confessed by him.
