Proof of the Sun King

Chapter 656: , the serf household registration redemption system

It is impossible to arrange to live in the Fairy Tower in the Lake for a week in one go. There is a lot of silt in the whole territory waiting for Ryan to solve. Before Ryan went out to fight, Suria helped him handle the internal affairs at home, and Morgiana was responsible for the gatekeeping. , it can be regarded as a clear division of labor, but Ryan left this time and took Suria with him, leaving only Morgianna alone.

In addition, Ryan left a group of three retainers to Morgiana, consisting of Katzenberg, the original butler of Musillon, Goffin from the Imperial Reikland, and Steve, a nobleman of Musillon. Assisting Morgiana in handling internal affairs, but the three of them, as courtiers, can only provide advice, and in the end it is up to Morgiana to make a decision, and the special role of the witch of the lake **** and the spokesperson of the mortal will of the fairies in the lake decided that she would not. It's too good to interfere in Ryan's internal affairs. The end is that for the past year, Morgiana has been troubled by this aspect.

After Ryan came back, he had a lot of things to deal with. He simply called all his subordinates to have a meeting and talked about the next step.

The first is the possible conflict between the Empire and the Bretons. Ryan immigrated from Brunswick, the capital of the Empire, to about 300,000 people, including 120,000 young men. The number of these people has exceeded Mousillon. If the aborigines are not dealt with properly, conflicts are very likely to arise.

Lane's method is to live together + encourage intermarriage, and at the same time strengthen propaganda. These imperial immigrants from Brunswick brought advanced craftsmanship, various technologies and many rare things that the aborigines of Musilon have never seen before. They will It will help the indigenous people of Musilom to get out of the current difficulties.

The aborigines of Musilon also have to undertake the integration of the imperial immigrants into the local area, and get used to the fertile swamps of Musilon and the environment where monsters appear from time to time. They teach the imperial people how to deal with these monsters and how to build strong villages and barriers. What are the activities of the swamp demon, and what taboos does Musilon have that he cannot touch?

In this way, both parties can understand each other.

The gap between the Empire and Brittany in terms of race and belief is not unacceptable. Everyone believes in the gods of the old world. The ancient church district of Freya, to which Alfred belongs, accepts immigrants from the Empire. , The two castles replaced with Noor were named "Charlemagne Fort" and "Noor Fort", and the garrison from two companies of the empire had been stationed in it.

After the immigration issue was resolved first, the second issue that was brought up for discussion was the issue of the award of the old guards. This time, in the decisive battle of Noor, many old guards made military exploits. Lane said at the meeting that it was time to learn from these old guards. Some of the guards were promoted and awarded the title of knight. The old guard who got the title of knight was equivalent to the knight of the ranger. From then on, they were the real nobles.

No one objected to Lane's decision, or rather, his subordinates, including the former Leonese South, the current Musillon's Count Doolin and Count Larot, all expressed their approval.

As for whether it is possible to continue to rise after obtaining the title of knight, Ryan did not say this, and everyone did not ask, because it is not necessary. In the eyes of the knights and nobles, the old guards can get the title of knight as a serf, it is already a The super promotion, as for the fief or even the title of title, the soldiers from these serfs probably dare not even think about it.

Ryan also feels that the title of knight can satisfy this generation of old guards and die for it. If there is really great credit, there is also the title of knight in the kingdom or even a baron.

The god-chosen champion of the fairy in the lake silently positioned the baron as the ceiling for the promotion of the old guard. The baron level is the highest level of the knight class and the lowest level of the great nobles.

The first batch of old guards to be awarded the title of knight is set at 30, and the time is set for this year's Winter Veil celebration. Ryan will, together with his wife Suria and the lake **** witch Morgiana, personally serve for this Thirty old guards awarded the title of knight.

After explaining the two matters, Ryan first asked the newly appointed Baron Meroving, the Holy Grail Knight Armand, the flag-holder: "How is the security in Musilon city now?"

"We spent a year reorganizing the entire city, but the situation is not particularly ideal. It will take at least six months for the entire city to be relatively thoroughly cleaned of the corruption left by the vampires." Armand told his difficulties: "Especially It is a shanty town, there are many deep secret passages, some secret passages even go deep below the sea level, only the lady knows what happened to Musilon City after falling into the hands of vampires.”

"Very well, it seems that we can't move the headquarters from Jean to Musilon City for the time being." Ryan nodded, and he continued: "Huan, is there any change in the direction of Orphan Hill?"

Juan Carlos, who was wearing the attire of the Sun Knight, smiled wryly and shook his head: "If it wasn't for the wood elves occupying the place now, maybe we would have been annoyed by the Skaven people hiding in the ground. Don't deal with the wood elves, Alaros the Brave has promised us to help us clear the threat of the Rat Men, on the condition that their current observatory site will be doubled!"

"Then give it to him!" Ryan immediately made a decision: "Our goal now is to try our best to create an environment where we can develop in peace and recuperate. Since the wood elves can help us, as long as it's not too much, we can agree. Let's get back to production!"

"Yes!" Juan received Ryan's promise and responded loudly, expressing his understanding.

"As for the investment attraction of the industrial belt along the Graysmore River, Katzenberg, this matter is left to you. Don't care too much about the immediate interests. The businessmen in Nuer know what to do." Lane continued. : "At least, let them stay first, everything can be discussed, our efforts in the Great Battle of Nuer will not be in vain, and their demands will not be excessive."

"Understood." Katzenberg still maintains his usual dress, with a big bald head, monocle and no beard. This year, he is in his thirties and looks much calmer. The agreement he made with Francois It's no longer meaningful, everyone knows that.

"And then... where is the canal now?" Ryan asked Count Doolin. As a former nobleman of Leonace, he knew this best.

A canal that runs through the north and the south, connecting the Sandnes River in the north, from the source of Palaon to the River Grismore, which flows into the sea at Musilon, and then to the River Chalon in the south, and finally arrives at the Beth, which originates from the forest of Athel Loren. The Leon River completes the north-south connection.

"The northern section of the canal started from the Sandnes River in Curona, and has now been built close to the Grismore River. It should have been navigable a few years ago." Count Doolin replied: "Temporarily, dig the canal. The manpower is still enough, but that is because of the famine in Leonasse, and the serfs are willing to dig hard for a bite to eat, but after digging the Grismore River, how do we maintain such a speed is also a problem. Some serfs are unwilling to leave their principalities, they are the property of their lords."

Ryan frowned when he heard the words. The serfs in Poldero were not Leonasser. The serfs there should be richer and more knowledgeable. More wealth means higher labor costs, and more knowledge means more knowledge. Harder to recruit.

We can only take one step at a time, and wait until the canal from the Sandnes River to the Gracemore River is open to navigation.

At the end of the meeting, everyone was given a task to carry out. Ryan originally planned to see how Veronica and Teresa were doing. He soon learned from the attendant that Veronica was currently retreating and attacking the Sanctuary. , her sorcerer's tower has been closed, and flames and lights have been continuously emerging from the top of the tower for a while.

Teresa had something to go back to the Garland Council for a meeting, and she would not be back in a few weeks. She left a message to Ryan, saying that she would return to Ryan's domain before Winter Veil.

After thinking for a while, Ryan finally decided to go to the Lake Fairy Tower and tell Morgiana and the Lake Fairy in detail about his plans.

For the serf redemption system to be successfully implemented, Ryan must get the support of the goddess, otherwise everything is empty talk.

…………I am the dividing line into the tower…………

Lane's entry into the Fairy Tower in the Lake is the most pleasing thing for Morgiana. Mogiana's previous dissatisfaction disappeared when she saw that Lane had dealt with everything and immediately came to the tower here. The witch of the lake **** cooked for Lane herself. Made a large table of dishes, including a dish she recently researched.

This dish is called "Haggis", and it is a dish passed down from Obian Island. It looks like a giant sausage, and chops all sheep's internal organs such as sheep heart, liver, and lung. After being chopped, they are mixed together and then stuffed into the stomach of the sheep. Then the stomach of the sheep is sewn together, and various vegetables are added to cook it together to make a hodgepodge.

Ryan looked at this watermelon-sized haggis, whose shape was like a giant egg that gave birth to a demon, all open, all kinds of unknown particles were densely packed, black ash mixed with feces and yellow water, and he held the knife and fork in his hand for a long time and didn't know how to say it: "This……"

"Don't know how to eat it?" Morgiana approached from a distance with a fragrant wind. Today, she was wearing a retro rose evening dress with layered gauze and snow, with a unicorn fleece vest under the skirt. The beautiful legs wrapped in white unicorn fleece pantyhose are beautifully curvy, slender and straight. Inside the fairy tower in the lake is a private area. The witch of the lake **** only wears a pair of ordinary open-toed high heels. Through the translucent white stockings, you can see Mo Jaina's pale, smooth skin and rounded pink nail polish toes.

"I really don't know where to start." Ryan sat at the dining table with a knife and fork in his hand.

"Haha." Morgiana sat gently on Ryan's lap, reached out and took the knife and fork from his hand, she reached out and cut open the lamb's stomach, revealing the ingredients in the chowder, and then gently forked a piece: "Ah~"

"Ah~m~" Ryan reluctantly opened his mouth to eat.

"Huh?!" The taste is quite surprising. Although the color is yellow and black, the taste is excellent, soft and has a special aroma. After tasting it, Ryan nodded again and again: "It's delicious, Morgiana, it's so good. eat!"

"It's good if you think it's delicious." Morgiana saw that Ryan liked it, her face glowed brightly, she took out a bottle of Corona whiskey, poured a full glass for Ryan, and said softly: "Sheep It's fishy, ​​this dish should be paired with whisky."

"It's delicious, Morgiana, I have troubled you for a while." Ryan was eating delicious food, and he adjusted his sitting position to make Morgiana more comfortable: "How did you learn to cook this dish? ?"

"In the north of Curona and Lyonnax there will be some fiery red-haired Obien, who have emigrated several times in their long history, and the fiery red-haired Obi were seen by the kings of knights at that time. The benefactors have not been corrupted by chaos and are brave and good at fighting, and chose to accept them. Haggis is a special dish passed down by these Obien people, and I think you may like it." Morgiana continued: "You know the Duke of Connett. Lawn's subordinate, Holy Grail Knight De Leones? He is the descendant of the Orbians."

"So that's the case." Ryan thought that the Kingdom of Brittany was not entirely composed of Bretons. The northern part of the kingdom had mixed blood with the Obians, the eastern part was intermarriage with the imperial people, and the southern part of the Duchy of Carcassonne, Berber The Principality of Leon also intermarryed with Estalians and Tyreans.

After a long dinner, Ryan and Morgiana cleaned up the tableware and dining table and returned to the bedroom. At this time, the fireplace in the bedroom was already burning vigorously, and the two were sitting on the sofa in the bedroom. The witch of the lake **** was so tired that she didn't want to move a finger. She whispered, "You must be looking for me this time, right? It's the serf household registration redemption system you mentioned to me in your letter before. ?"

"That's right." Ryan took Morgiana's hand and said softly, "This step must be taken, otherwise what I have done is only to temporarily ease the conflict between serfs and nobles. Among the fundamental changes, it will not take long for my reform results to be gradually swallowed up by the great nobles, and the treatment of serfs will not be fundamentally changed."

"I know this." Morgiana was a little puzzled: "But haven't you solved this problem through the old guard system?"

"The old guard is a road, but we can't hope that all the serfs are as brave and good at fighting as the old guard." Ryan shook his head, he explained: "People have a division of labor, facing those who are not good at fighting. Serfs, we must also give the opportunity to leave the serf household registration.”

"What are you going to do?" Morgiana thought about it for a while and thought that Ryan was right, but she couldn't understand what Ryan meant for a while: "Let the serf pay a large sum of money, and then you can leave the serf's household registration and get freedom. , buy a piece of land from the lord to cultivate it yourself? Just like the current free people, they are subordinate to the management of the original lord?"

"No, if you change it like this, it will just turn the serf into a tenant farmer, it will not fundamentally change the relationship between the serf and the lord~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ryan shook his head sharply, and he revealed his plan.

The core of the serf household registration redemption system that Lane planned is redemption, not that after spending a lot of money, the serfs just changed from serfs enslaved by the lord to tenant farmers attached to the lord.

The core of Lane's plan is probably the following three points.

First, as long as a serf has participated in the conscription of the knight master as a conscript and participated in the war, he can have the qualification to redeem himself and his family.

2. After meeting the conditions, the serfs can make a redemption proposal to the Lake Fairy Church. By paying a large sum of money, the Lake Fairy Church will notarize and extract a small amount of notarization fees. The ransom is handed over to the lord, and both parties cannot go back on it. .

Third, after the redemption is successful, the serf will leave the household registration and become a "free citizen". Since then, he has nothing to do with the territory. He no longer needs to bear any obligations, taxes and corvée to the lord. Farming, working as he wants, as a soldier as he wants, he enjoys the liberty of people and property, he is no longer dominated by others, he enjoys all the rights and interests of a Brittanian citizen, and the lord who wants to hire these people must pay out real gold silver.

After Lane finished speaking, Morgiana fell into deep thought. Lane's idea had a great impact on her, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

At this time, the voice of the fairy in the lake came from the door. The goddess was wearing a fragrant cinnamon and gardenia fluttering white off-the-shoulder skirt with black velvet pantyhose and white lace-up high-heeled shoes. Walking in, he smiled at Ryan and said, "My champion, I have listened to your suggestion. Here, I have a question for you."

"How much do you plan to set the ransom? Also, how are you going to convince the nobles of the kingdom to agree to this proposal?"

"I'm planning to……"
