Rise In Calradia

Chapter 148: : Looking for "friends"

Jamila returned from Uxhall. ()

Coming back with her, there were dozens of bankrupt farmers and refugees encountered in Rhodok.

They are generally a little malnourished, and their clothes are worn out. Many people can't even put on their shoes before they meet Yamila.

Among them, there are women with children. They lost their husbands in the war, their homes were also destroyed, and they had to take their children around to beg. Byron knew that it was Jamila's kindness that brought them, but these women can also work, and their children can bring a little bit of anger to the town.

Byron, the immigrants who came to Serendil, accepted them all. He arranged a place for them and divided the land, and asked them to cultivate the land, tools and cattle Byron can be out.

Jamila brought back a lot of things, a dozen carriages were all filled, food, drinks, daily necessities and tools, she bought a lot of things, so that the merchants in Uxhal made a lot of money.

Also in the villages and towns near Uxhal, Jamila bought 20 healthy bulls and 10 cows at a price of 20 dinars per head, as well as a large number of farming tools, enough for these refugees to clear the land. use.

Elaine thinks that Byron has invested too much. It is not that he does not understand the necessity of revitalizing the town, but he suggested that Byron should focus on those unstable factors.

The war is still going on, and the main force of Rodok's army is still there. If a large army departs from Agorronborg and the Swadia army encounters trouble again, the town will definitely not be able to keep it. He believes that Byron still prioritizes the army, and if he can, he can fight for other exploits. When the war is over, the town will naturally develop.

Byron accepted his suggestion, but still did not stop spending money to repair the town of Serendil. He even plans to maintain the roads around the town of Serendil, so that he can profit from the caravans when the trade routes are clear again. Even if the war is likely to make his efforts in vain, but he is still happy to discuss the future town construction with Jamila and Fatis.

In this regard, the heroes are a little helpless, they don't understand how fascinated a traverser is in his heart for farming expansion and hegemony, especially this field is obtained by Byron with such a great effort.

It wasn't until Alien listened to Fattis's advice and asked Byron a key question that Byron was pulled out of the joy of farming and construction, and let him face the reality.

"Without the army, what do you mean to the king and earls?"

"Yes, without the army, without the fief, I am a dispensable guy. I also master the formula of gunpowder, when the time comes..."

Byron thought of this and broke out in a cold sweat.

The next day, he put aside the plans full of town plans, handed over the trivial matters to the two clerks under him, mounted a horse and brought a group of soldiers directly to Palavin.

On the way, he went to the bandit camp he had occupied and took away the soldiers there, but he still kept the camp and made a proper cover. Now he is a baron, and if he still has garrisons in other aristocratic territories, it is easy to conflict with the other nobles, or they may cause trouble to the **** aristocratic court. This place can still be reserved for future use, but for now it is better to take the untrained troops to Dehrim, where Earl Kleis still allows the Peony Mercenaries to be stationed outside the city.

Byron intends to purchase horses and armor in Paravin, and then turn to Deherim to recruit mercenaries who are looking for work.

Of course, these things alone cannot be committed by Byron who has become Lord Baron himself.

Byron has already thought about it. Now that he has become an official member of the aristocracy, he cannot continue to fight alone with mercenaries as before. There are many factions in the aristocratic circle, as well as many minor alliances.

Byron hopes that he can find other powerful nobles to support him, and it is best to reach an agreement on cooperation.

Even if there is no aristocracy, we still have to win over some gentry and rich people, and they can bring considerable practical benefits to themselves. At the very least, a single investment can make up for all his expenses in Serendil.

Byron's behavior is similar to selling shares. As a new nobleman, although his strength is average and he has no background, he is still a superior nobleman to the common people, and they are very happy to catch Byron's relationship.

Byron rushed to Palavin, first visited the local barons, and hereditary barons without fiefdom, and then visited the local powerful families and wealthy businessmen, seeking their support and help.

However, Byron's civilian background still brought him a lot of trouble. The barons of the powerful territories did not care about him, and the barons of average strength did not have a good face towards Byron. Palavin’s nobles are all attached to King Haraus, and it stands to reason that they are on the same line as Byron. But those veteran nobles did not take Byron in their eyes at all, and still regarded Byron as a mercenary leader.

What's more, even the minimum aristocratic etiquette is too lazy to use Byron, which makes Byron very dissatisfied.

Although the local squires and wealthy businessmen were willing to be the leader Byron, they asked too much, and there were too many places for Byron's support, and the cooperation was naturally gone.

In the end, Byron found a partner in Dehrim, and before reaching an agreement, he didn't believe that he would actually reach a cooperative relationship with them.

The old business family of De Herim, once suppressed the Peony mercenaries, and sent people to assassinate Byron's Golden Hand family, Byron's new ally!

After Fu Shou Nian Gao figured out Byron's intentions, the old fellow Jinshou found Byron cheeky and expressed his intentions very directly.

Byron rejected them on the spot~www.wuxiaspot.com~ For Byron, his ability to hold back and kill this old guy is enough to give them face. Although Jinshou's family is very rich, he still remembers the previous fights with Jinshou's family and the humiliation that the other party gave him. He regards Jinshou's family as an enemy, and he is still the kind of immortality.

But the old fox, Golden Hand, knew very well what Byron needed now. He needs the recognition and support of the nobility circle, and more money to maintain his army.

The Jinshou family may have relatively average contacts because of the harsh competition, but they have money.

They can provide Byron with high-quality lending services and invest in Serendil for free.

And their request is also very simple, the two sides reconciled, Byron and Jinshou both vowed to give up their previous grievances, and reached a simple alliance relationship. The Golden Hand family supports the development of Baron Byron, and Byron should also give proper support to the Golden Hand family and let the young people of the Golden Hand family serve as his attendants.

After much consideration, Byron remembered an old saying, and finally shook hands with the other party to make peace.

"There are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests."
