I Want To Be a Nobleman

Harold asked Lucius to borrow someone from Marcus as a teacher to teach knowledge, train a few clever system soldiers, and let the servants inform about the promulgation of laws. Now he is a nobleman and has the right to execute the territory Anyone who violated the law, few people dared to challenge his authority.

In this era, the rule of man is not the rule of law. After breaking the law, the specific crimes are decided by those in power. As long as they want to, they can be fined for murder and rape, or sentenced to death for petty theft. Corruption is dark and scary.

Harold has a lot of ideas, but he can only do so much now, and he has to eat at a bite. He will train his own team first and then slowly carry out more reforms.

Harold took the giant snake scales to the forging city to find dwarves for equipment, and met the dwarf master Airl.

At this time, Airl had already established the largest and most luxurious blacksmith guild in the Kingdom of Corondo. There were more than 20 apprentices and helpers under him alone. Only a small number of dwarves who came here to vote for the lover's kingdom are human craftsmen.

"These scales are of good quality, but they don't have any supernatural energy, so they can only be made into ordinary armor." The dwarf master Ai Luo touched the scales of the giant snake with his hand, feeling a little regretful.

Harold was not disappointed either. The giant snake's heart, head, and gallbladder might have something special about it, but the scales were only a little harder and couldn't have other functions.

It's not a giant dragon, and that giant snake monster hasn't even reached the legendary level, so how can it be full of treasures?

"I don't need to do these materials, just let those young people do it. Let's discuss how to create a new legendary equipment!"

Harold gave those associated metals and gold coins to the dwarf master as a return gift for the invincible armor. Harold felt that it was not worth 200,000 gold coins just to help drive away some wolf men, and it was better to sell favors than to take advantage.

However, the dwarf master insisted on not accepting it, so Harold pushed it to the dwarf master in the name of making new equipment, but the dwarf master took it seriously.

After the dwarf master returned to the forging city, he searched for other metals in order to create an armor that surpassed the previous level. Of course, Harold would definitely need to add more money, and the remuneration would not count the cost of materials.

"Master, the armor can be heavier this time. My ability to awaken as a noble can control gravity, so I don't need to deliberately reduce the weight!"

At the same level, the defensive power of heavy armor is definitely better than that of light armor. Now Harold can trim the half-ton "Rune Heavy Armor Set" and put it on without any problem.

Harold's current gravity control limit is 1,000 catties. You can increase or decrease weight within this weight, but you will feel a little uncomfortable when your own weight is increased to 5 times. It is not just as simple as being difficult to move.

Astronauts in the previous life could withstand 5 times the gravity. Harold's physical fitness and life level must far exceed them, but he has to function normally in that state, which is different from those astronauts who simply resist gravity. .

"Oh, this is good news. Although I have a lot of experience in reducing gravity, I must admit that only armor with enough weight can withstand powerful attacks! The limit of light armor is still too low!"

When the dwarf master said this, he looked at the invincible armor that had not been repaired with some distress. Harold asked the dwarf master to help repair the armor immediately after returning to the territory.

The Invincible Armor is indeed strong. It helped Harold block countless fierce attacks, especially in the battle with Kuka. how.

Withstood the brutal blow of Kuka's actual power exceeding 100 points, deformation and cracks were inevitable, and because the manufacturing process was very complicated, it was also very laborious for the dwarf master to repair.

"The materials are basically assembled, but there is a lack of some gold coins!" The dwarf master gestured to Harold, and Harold thought that there is no need to specifically bring up such a trivial matter, am I a person who is short of money?

"Don't worry, I'll get someone to send it later. Is 50,000 gold coins enough? You can also add a few bottles of top-quality wine!" Harold said richly. He now has more than 100,000 dollars in taxation, trade income, and compensation from the King of Prague. 200,000 gold coins.

"I'm not talking about the reward. I've already accepted the reward in advance. I'm talking about the materials needed to make the armor! I'm going to use well-purified holy gold as the core material."

"Gold is a mysterious metal rich in magic and divine power. The rare materials you gave are too small and can only be used as auxiliary materials, while ordinary metals cannot have extraordinary abilities!"

"The enchanting technique of our dwarves has been lost. If you want this armor to have special abilities and be promoted to legendary equipment, you must use gold with mysterious power to refine it into holy gold as the core material!"

The dwarf master explained that when Harold slapped his head, it turned out that his own thinking was wrong, but the gold in this world is indeed quite magical, no wonder it can circulate among all races.

"The holy gold needed to forge the core part should be at least a ton of gold. The more the better, I will return the extra to you!" The dwarf master gave the required amount.

It's not too outrageous, the volume of a ton of gold is not too large, after all, the density is about 20 times that of water, and after refining it into holy gold, it needs to be cut down a lot, and the final volume is estimated to be only a few cubic decimeters. The key parts to build the armor are almost suitable.

Harold made a simple calculation. A gold coin is about 10 grams, a ton of gold. One hundred thousand gold coins! And according to the dwarf master, this is still the minimum standard, and it is best to continue to increase.

Harold is only 200,000 gold coins. After the dwarf master builds the equipment, he will charge another fee. After all, it takes several months to build the armor. Besides the master himself, he has a bunch of other helpers, and the union has spent a lot of money. For other materials, it is unreasonable not to give some compensation.

Harold gritted his teeth and said, "I'll offer 150,000, Master Arrow, don't save money for me, try to be as perfect as possible, and it's best to be able to resist the attack of the legendary powerhouse!"

The dwarf master laughed. He definitely hoped that the quality of the work would be as high as possible. He patted his chest and assured him: "Don't worry, the final product will definitely be better than those giant dwarves' rune sets. It will never be broken!"

Rune heavy armor set, the original giant dwarves relied on this equipment to withstand the attack of the centaur commander after the transformation, and it can be regarded as the top armor in the whole continent. , It is really not a dream to resist several attacks from the legendary strong.

All of a sudden, Harold's money was a lot tighter, and the subsequent construction of the territory would also cost a lot of money. Not to mention all the taxes included, he would have to pay for it, so he had to find a way to get money from other places.

The giant snake scales from this trip could have been sold for tens of thousands of gold coins, but unfortunately Harold wanted to keep them for himself, and also wanted to keep the snake meat in the inventory. means.

Are you going to run a business again? Three to forty thousand for a trip, six to seventy thousand for a round trip, it takes three to four months, half a year is 100,000 gold coins!

It seems that it is not impossible, is it a bit strange to work hard to run a business even after becoming an aristocrat?

Running a business is risky. In case of natural disasters and man-made disasters, the goods are lost, not to mention life-threatening, unless Harold does not lead the team himself.

However, if Harold didn't lead the team himself, he wouldn't be able to use the lv10 [Trade] skill effect, and he would earn much less money. Moreover, Lucius was helping him with his internal affairs, and there was no other capable man who could handle it alone.

"Hey, let's talk about the money later!" Harold sighed helplessly, and dealt with the matter of the Yiren Dynasty first.

He told other nobles about the alliance between the Wingman Dynasty and the Kingdom of Dragons, but the result was exactly as he thought, and only a handful of people believed it. Even Marcus and Kryon, who trusted him very much, only expressed that they would pay attention .

The nobles of the Corondo Kingdom all have this attitude, let alone other countries. Humans are still fighting civil wars when other races are forming alliances. Harold feels a headache when he thinks about it.

There is no way, the aristocratic system of mankind and the division of kingdoms lead to insufficient unity. Only when the enemy comes and the army is overwhelming, can we stop the internal fighting and unite against the enemy.

Harold bid farewell to the dwarf master, took out the associated mines and fine wine from the warehouse, and prepared to go to the home of the elves.

The system virtual building "new farmland" of the Forge City has been built, and the surrounding villages have begun to vigorously develop agriculture early on. Now Harold's territory not only has enough food for wine making, but also sells a lot to Marcus.

The number of Marcus's army is close to 10,000, and the food consumption is so worrying that he can hardly sleep. Fortunately, his caravan brought back a lot of food from the Dwarf Kingdom, and the stable trade relationship can continue to flow Purchase, this is also thanks to the high-quality drinks Harold gave.

It took another 12,000 dinars to start building the system building "Tax Bureau". The Forge City now has a tax revenue of 5,000+, and the "Tax Bureau" can increase the tax by 20%. However, the deduction of army salaries also earns more than 4,000 per month. You can consider building system buildings for some second-tier towns.

Buildings such as "wine cellar" and "blacksmith shop" can not only affect the actual material output, but also produce some rare items. The more the better.

Harold had something important to do this time, so he didn't play with Bias or Tiona first, but went to visit Alan immediately and asked about the magic that controlled other people's souls, thoughts, and lives.

Alan frowned, took Harold into an empty room, and asked seriously, "Is what you want something like a soul contract?"

"Yes, I want to support a Winged spy to go to the Winged Dynasty to find out the situation. The alliance between the Kingdom of Dragon and the Winged Dynasty is very detrimental to us humans. As a human noble, I need to be on the safe side!"

Harold is also afraid that Alan will misunderstand him, he is not satisfying his own interests, he is doing it for human beings!

It's a pity that Alan is not a human being, and as an elf, he must avoid getting involved in the struggle between races. The elves have always stood by their positions.

The powerful power of the elves is feared by other races. If you don't want to be targeted by the mainland, you must keep aloof from the world. In this way, there is no conflict of interest and few races will offend the elves.

Although the elves are strong, population is a big problem. No matter how invincible they are, they will perish sooner or later under the consumption of years of war. The orcs are different. They can not only fight but also survive, so don't be too fierce!

"The slave contract involves the soul, which is taboo, and this matter is a bit contrary to the position of our neutral race of elves, sorry, I can't help you with this matter!"

Ailan rejected Harold rightly, and Harold was dumbfounded. Isn't it a waste to keep the sand, why not just let the giant snake swallow her!

No, how could Harold just give up like this, what he said just now was not right, it should be fine to change it to another way, Alan is still very friendly to him, and he is just controlling an ordinary wingman, there is no issue of race !

"Brother, what you just said doesn't count, let's do it again." After Harold finished speaking, Alan blinked and nodded in agreement.

"I reached an agreement with a guy with a bad personality. I supported her in the position. After she gained power, she helped me earn benefits. I have paid a lot of money and resisted many powerful enemies for her, but she did not do anything. Repay me, I can't trust her a bit, is there any way to make her promise to fulfill her promise?"

"It's fair, it's just a little mandatory restraint, it's a fair deal, it's not who enslaves anyone!"

Harold separated the issues related to the country and race this time, turned the nature of the matter into a personal issue, and then did not mention any taboo words such as controlling others, emphasizing giving and rewarding, profit and A word that symbolizes fairness such as repayment.

Alan nodded with a smile. This matter is really not a big deal. As long as Harold can change the nature of this matter, he is still willing to help.

"I haven't studied this aspect of knowledge, but my uncle is better at it. Take that wingman with me to the forest of elves!"

Harold struggled for a while. Il Tiran gave him a big psychological shadow, but he is now a nobleman. Since the elves stick to their position and do not take the initiative to attack other races, he should be in no danger. Just go to learn magic. Was his talent so outstanding all his life?

Soon, Harold was ready to go.

Although Harold felt that there should be no danger in his heart, he still called Bias and Tiona from the bottom of his heart, especially Tiona. Her master is a legendary powerhouse, and she has a lot of face. For Tiona's sake, she wouldn't do anything to herself.
