King
Chapter 68 The road is long (please vote)
After the dust settled, Hudson also joined the process of completing the territorial rights confirmation procedures. This time, Earl Pierce did a good thing. He directly placed the service window of the Governor's Palace in Dadir City, eliminating the need to rush all the way to Beida.
Registration is complete, and then comes the long waiting period. Hudson belongs to the nobility of the kingdom, not a retainer of some great nobleman.
According to the rules of the kingdom, the canonization of nobles in the kingdom must be approved by the king in order to be effective. To be precise, one must be personally canonized by the king to be considered a true noble.
The Kingdom of Alpha has a vast territory. The more than 20 provinces in the country combined have a total area of millions of square kilometers and a population of tens of millions.
In such a huge kingdom, the replacement of nobles happens almost every day. If the king had to be canonized every time there was a change, then Caesar III would not have to do anything but just hold a nobility canonization ceremony every day.
For convenience, the canonization ceremony of the kingdom's nobles is held every five years. At that time, all the nobles who need to be canonized will arrive at the royal capital and accept the official canonization from the king.
The previous title inheritance and canonization are also valid, but some of the rights of the nobles are missing before the procedures are completed.
For example: in the Parliament of Nobles, they only have the right to observe and make suggestions, but not the right to propose or vote.
These are all small issues. For Hudson, whether it is a proposal in parliament or a vote, they are far away from him.
Just look at the Southeast Provincial Nobles Council and you will know that voting on such a sacred matter is actually held at a banquet hosted by the governor. You will know how stupid this thing is.
After packing his bags and preparing to lead his troops to the territory, Baron Redman suddenly brought a bow.
"I got this from an old friend. It is said to be the exclusive bow of the elves. Although it is not equipped with a magic device, its power is not comparable to that of ordinary bows and arrows.
In the hands of ordinary people, it is pure waste. Give Hudson a try, I hope it can unleash its real power in your hands. "
Baron Redman said with slight joy.
If he hadn't accidentally mentioned it in a conversation with an old friend, he wouldn't have known that his son was the famous "Knight of the Divine Bow".
Even now, he still feels like he is dreaming. After all, as a father, he couldn't understand what Hudson's talent was.
But facts speak louder than words. When people around him began to say this, Baron Redman could only understand that Hudson was deliberately hiding his clumsiness.
After all, there are so many legendary things about Hudson. He obviously took 500 serf soldiers with him before setting off, but everyone said they were 500 elite soldiers.
Explanations were useless. Not only did they list their achievements as proof, they also swore that they had seen them fight with their own eyes. This made Baron Redman doubt whether the five hundred elite troops he sent were.
Unfortunately, there are still those familiar faces in the camp. Although some strangers have been added, most of them are still his subjects.
If you don’t understand, then you don’t bother to delve into it. If the outside world thinks they are elites, then let this beautiful misunderstanding continue.
What's more, the rumors are not completely without merit. At least they have frightened countless peepers and reduced a lot of unnecessary trouble.
The strength that hundreds of elite soldiers + a divine archer with the Earth Bear can exert is enough to make countless small and medium-sized nobles fear them.
After taking the bow and arrow, Hudson immediately noticed something unusual. Ordinary bows and arrows are made of hardwood and cowhide as the main materials, but this special bow and arrow of the elves is made of mysterious rattan and magic beast sinew.
After trying to nock an arrow, Hudson was surprised to find that he could not fully draw the bow even though he had exhausted all his strength.
With a "swish" sound, the arrow actually penetrated a big tree two hundred meters away, then flew more than ten meters and was inserted into a boulder.
The power is indeed impressive, but it's a pity that it consumes too much energy. With such an intense attack, even if Hudson was cheating, he wouldn't be able to fire a few arrows.
"It is indeed a good bow, but it is a pity that the arrows are not very good, otherwise the power it can exert would be even greater!"
Hudson sighed with a slight embarrassment. The fact that the bow was not fully drawn was definitely due to the quality of the arrows, not to him as the "Knight of the Divine Bow".
"That's very good. It seems that this bow is really suitable for you. With it at your side, as long as you don't give the enemy a chance to get close, even the great knight will not be able to catch a few arrows.
Cultivate the Earth Bear well, it is your strongest support. As long as it survives its infancy, its combat power can surpass that of many silver knights; if it is lucky enough to be cultivated into adulthood, you will be one of the strongest knights in the continent.
If one day, we can restore our family's glory and return to the ranks of middle-class nobility, we may even be like the Dalton family..."
After listening to his father's words, Hudson reluctantly discovered that he had greater hope for the cub than for himself.
In theory, there seems to be nothing wrong with it. Under normal circumstances, it would take more than two hundred years for Earth Bear Light to reach adulthood, but as long as he was willing to spend a lot of money, this time could still be advanced.
If it weren't for ripening, the growth cycle of Warcraft would be so long, and no one would contract the cubs.
It just so happened that the territory that Hudson chose was suitable for making quick money in the short term. It was not surprising that he was misunderstood as cultivating the Earth Bear.
No one came out to cause trouble. That's because the higher the level of Warcraft, the more difficult it is to ripen it in advance. Many of the things needed cannot be bought with money.
In the eyes of most people, before the Earth Bear reaches adulthood, Hudson will receive the lunch first. A free bear who is not bound by a contract will not continue to work for the Koslow family.
"Father, let's discuss this issue later! The top priority is that we rush to the territory as soon as possible to resume production in the mine."
Hudson replied calmly.
Compared with other nobles, he has the capital to be calm. It takes a season for grain production to be harvested, but as long as mining and iron smelting resumes production, profits can be seen in ten days and a half.
Salt, iron, grain, and cloth are all hard commodities recognized in mainland China. There may be fluctuations in price, but there is absolutely no problem that they cannot be sold.
Wright and Wyton counties have been severely affected and will face labor shortages for a long time to come.
If the lords wanted to resume agricultural production, they would inevitably purchase more and more advanced production tools to make up for the impact of insufficient labor. It was only a matter of time before iron farm tools replaced traditional farm tools on a large scale.
The opportunity to make a fortune was at hand, and Hudson didn't want to miss it.
"Um!"
"But over there, you can just go there by yourself. With your reputation as a knight of the divine bow and your reputation as a family's private army, there won't be anyone who can't think of it.
It's different with Berio and Guarente, two unlucky kids. He lost his parents early, and his family fortune was wiped out by the rebels.
There are a lot of people who are eyeing them now. If the family doesn't help them a little, I'm afraid they will die violently soon and their territory will be annexed.
We will also need to fund the construction of your territory later. Our team is not able to provide them with much support in terms of money and food, but military support is indispensable.
I will take people over to watch first. After your two brothers return, they will stay in Wyton County for the next few years.
Several other branches of the family will also send people there. Before their private army is cultivated, the family's resident knights in Wyton County will not be less than eight.
If you are in trouble, you can also go there and ask for help. However, given your reputation in the southeastern province, the probability of such a thing happening is low. "
Baron Redman said with a look of relief.
The son is capable and has made his own fortune. He does not need to worry about his father, but he has gained enough face in front of all his old friends.
Even though there are a lot of eight knights, if they are put together with the "Knights of the Divine Bow" who hold "elite soldiers", everyone would rather seek the bad luck of the eight knights.
If you can't beat the former, you can still run away, but if you encounter the latter, you may not be able to get close and will have to lie down in advance.
When it comes to this, Hudson naturally has no objection. To enjoy the benefits brought by the family, you must also assume corresponding obligations.
Watching each other is the key to the Koslow family's ability to survive. Now that members of the Koslow family need help, they naturally cannot sit idly by.
The family's investment of so much power was obviously not to guard against the nobles from the southeastern provinces. Everyone hangs out in the same circle, and there is a certain amount of love from the ancestral marriage, so they will not easily break the rules of the game.
Benefits are temporary, but reputation is lifelong. If you want to mix in this small circle, you must pay attention to your food and appearance.
We can secretly plan and plot, slowly waiting for the other party to decline or even die, but we cannot personally go there and do evil things.
Only outsiders who are not bound by the rules of the circle can break the rules unscrupulously. As long as it doesn't violate some taboos, even if the food looks a little ugly, everyone will be more accepting of it.
Migrant households are already being squeezed out, so they don’t care about the extra money. If you want to gain everyone's approval, the best way is to rely on your fists to win everyone over, and the problem of being excluded will naturally cease to exist.
…
Looking at the convoy full of supplies, Hudson felt particularly happy. This was the result of processing a large amount of surplus supplies, otherwise hundreds of carriages would not be able to hold them.
"War changes destiny", this is the most true portrayal of the Aslant continent. Just a war to quell the chaos caused Hudson to rise from a knight who was about to wander into a noble fief baron.
The bamboo spears and orchid shields that were used when setting out were now replaced by broadswords and spears. There were also many soldiers holding war hammers and battle axes, and many of them also carried bows on their backs.
The team has also grown from the original 500 serfs to 637 veterans. Just looking at it from a distance will make you feel chilly.
The only thing that is the same is that this team still continues the tradition of advancing at a tortuous pace, without any galloping gallop.
…
The number of words in the update has increased, and the number of votes has increased. Haiyue needs the encouragement of votes...
