Genius Demon Empress
Chapter 412 The Lord’s “Liquid Assets”
Not long after Jinnuo left the Five Saints Town, he was called back by the furious Niuer tax officer.
After learning about Sky Dragon Palace's "flying" away, Jin Nuo's first reaction was to burst into laughter.
The tax collector Niuer was so angry that he almost fainted for the second time.
In fact, Jin Nuo cannot be blamed for this matter. I am afraid that Emperor Long Teng's first reaction after hearing such a thing would not be much better than his.
But as an honorable dragon knight, Jinnuo still knows how to have a good relationship with the tax officer of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
So after secretly wiping away the tears from laughter, he looked up at the sky.
Only then did I realize that what the tax officer Niuer said was actually true.
Later, he ordered someone to inquire about the whereabouts of the Dragon Palace in the Sky. The news sent back by the spies made Jin Nuo abruptly turn his smile into panic.
The spies stationed around Fontaine County saw with their own eyes the Sky Dragon Palace flying into the territory of Fontaine County.
"Flyed to Fontaine County? You said it was Fontaine County on the southern border of Xuan Beast Ridge?" Jin Nuo felt incredible. It was just that Dragon Palace "flew", but how could he fly to Fontaine County without any bias.
The recent events surrounding Fontaine County were enough to surprise Jinnuo.
First, the neighboring Bailu County suddenly changed hands, and then all the empire's spies stationed in Fontaine County were eliminated. It became a blind spot for the empire's information.
The information related to Fontaine County and the true identity of the new lord are all a mystery.
The only bit of information was extracted from the mouth of a drunken businessman in Helen's Tavern, saying that the new lord of Fontaine County was a weak and delicate young man.
In the past few days, Jin Nuo has repeatedly surveyed the Black Beast Ridge area in order to formulate a plan on whether to attack Fontaine County.
"Oops, Lord Jinnuo, it would be very bad if the Sky Dragon Palace flew to Fontaine County," Niuer's tax officer's reaction was much greater than Jinnuo's.
He is an imperial tax officer, and he explains more about the empire's tax laws and property laws than the average person.
According to the provisions of imperial law, any personal territory granted to a lord by the imperial monarch, the lord has ownership of all items in the territory.
This territory covers the development ownership of airspace, territorial waters, underground minerals, etc.
Right now, the only way to get back the Dragon Palace in the Sky is to come and ask for it back while the Dragon Palace has just "flew" over.
"What are you afraid of? I have already made a detailed plan. I am just a fake lord with no hair. As long as my black pretty girl roars ten miles away from the territory, the entire Fontaine County will be shaken three times." Jinnuo's temper also rose.
Although I don’t know what shady method the other party used to steal the Sky Dragon Palace, there is one thing: the empire’s property is sacred and inviolable, and the tax-resistant lord must be punished.
After Jin Nuo made up his mind, he immediately mobilized his troops.
Before leaving, I wanted to bring my brother Yue Xiaodi along with me and learn more about them, but I didn't know that even his figure was missing.
Perhaps after accepting the mercenary mission, with this thought in his mind, Jin Nuo took more than a thousand elite imperial soldiers and fifty imperial war beasts, covered with stars and moons all the way, crossed the Black Beast Ridge, and rushed straight to Fontaine County. .
On the other side, Fontaine County seemed to have no idea about the arrival of the imperial army.
The people were only concerned about the sudden appearance of a dragon-shaped palace above Yunluo Lake (the original ice lake, which was later renamed to commemorate Miss Yunluo, the county's largest investor).
If it had been in any other place, I am afraid that the people would have been horrified and rushed to leave, but this happened in Fontaine County, but it was like a small stone thrown into the sea, causing a small After the splash, it quickly subsided.
Some people from other counties were a little uncomfortable for a while, so they secretly asked the locals.
I saw a local resident impatiently lighting a blue snow candle, "Have you ever seen this kind of light outside?"
The outsiders shook their heads quickly.
"Have you ever seen a pig that can plow the land?" The local pointed to the stone-eating pig that plowed through the hard ice loam in the spring plowing field.
The outsider's head shook even more vigorously.
"Then have you ever seen the Beast God appear in person?" The local pointed to the statue of the snake-haired Gore standing tall on the bank of Yunluo Lake.
The necks of outsiders would be broken.
"This is Fontaine County, a place blessed by the Beast God. That palace is the Beast God's residence. It's no big deal," the locals said with great piety.
Of course, this version of the story about the Palace of the Beast God originally came from the Lord's Mansion, and was personally told to the servants by Hong Ling, the chief steward of the Lord's Mansion.
Soon, not only the residents of Fontaine County, but also the passing businessmen and some foreigners accepted this version.
They couldn't help but not believe it. You must know that just a year and a half ago, Fontaine County was still a shabby place where birds didn't shit and mysterious beasts didn't care.
Now, thanks to the protection of the Beast God, Fontaine County and the neighboring Bailu County have become well-known wealthy counties.
The picturesque Yunluo Lake, clusters of arrow bamboos of different colors, beautifully crafted blue snow candles, roasted fragrant pig that can only be tasted locally, and frothy beer with a mellow taste.
These have attracted caravans from the Risong Federation and even neighboring principalities, who have sprung up and settled in the territory.
Due to the lord's encouraging policies, a large number of craftsmen and craftsmen lived in Fontaine County. They brought not only prosperity in population, but also unprecedented vitality in Fontaine County.
The dilapidated stone houses were replaced by exquisite glazed tile houses, and the muddy frozen roads were replaced by spacious carriage roads. There was no longer a wave of mysterious beasts. Residents who fled to other places returned one after another. Fontaine County now has nearly fifteen people. million permanent population.
Of course, these outsiders, especially the Dragon War Empire, don't know much.
Even the real lord of Fontaine County, Little Duke Yue Minzhi of Blood Sakura of the Dragon War Empire, had only recently obtained this new information about the territory.
"Master, this information was sent from the Black Beast Ridge area one day ago," when Sequoia, the steward of Duke Longzhan's Mansion, handed a letter and the latest information and income of the territory into Yue Minzhi's hands. , Yue Minzhi, who had always been calm, was stunned.
More than half a year ago, when the steward Sequoia went to Bailu County to ask for help, he was ridiculed by Viscount Moore and kicked out of Bailu County. In desperation, he had to return to the imperial capital, hoping to find Yue Minzhi to think of some ways to help the territory survive. Difficulties this time.
However, Yue Minzhi was training at the Imperial Preparatory Camp at the time and was really busy with his duties. When he returned to his home after a short vacation, he received a letter like this.
When facing this letter, Yue Minzhi and Sequoia had the same reaction. How could this be possible?
