Chapter 114
The tribute offered by Earl of Xiaohe really amazed many people, but also offended many people.

After the contributions of Earl Megan and Earl Xiaohe, the remaining pioneering nobles began to increase their stakes one after another. Not to mention three times as much as Stewart and Matsurize compared to the vain nobles, it is still necessary to double.

Especially those aristocrats who failed to open up their territory, they were not sure what King Yagyu was thinking, and they didn't dare to be careless, so they had no choice but to increase the size.

Matsurize sees all this clearly, but Matsurize doesn't care about the resentment of these people.

After Matsurizawa finished his tribute, it took an hour later, and the contributions of the pioneering nobles and others also ended.

After that, King Yagyu talked about the future of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom, and roughly what kind of direction it is going.

After Matsurizawa finished listening, he had to lament that King Yagyu was an ambitious king candidate that was rare in a hundred years.

King Yagyu's vision for the future of the Pine Cypress Kingdom, internally, that is, the Pine Cypress Island is still continuing to develop the economy, constantly encouraging the nobles to open up the wilderness, and not only the nobles, but even the royal family themselves have left a piece of wilderness. , leaving it to develop the wilderness for itself, and then directly become the territory directly under the kingdom.

To the outside world, King Liusheng was blunt, saying that he wanted to combine business and robbers. On the one hand, he used business to communicate with the outside world. This included buying and selling people. Of course, this was buying people. The people on the Pine Island in the Pine Kingdom included Slaves cannot be sold to outsiders.

And this external robbery is just like the robbery of King Yagyu this time, stealing and plundering, doing business without money, and absorbing people into Songbai Island.

Although most of Songbai Island is a wilderness, the whole island has been explored by the ancestors, and it has been estimated that it is more than a mistake to feed a million people. , reaching a population of 30 million is also achievable.

Therefore, King Yagyu talked about the future of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom in terms of population.

King Yagyu discussed the future of the Songbai Kingdom with a group of ministers for more than an hour, and even Matsurizawa came forward to answer a few words.

However, Matsu Rizawa's answer did not quite suit King Yagyu's wishes, because Matsu Rizawa praised King Yagyu's population plan, but also warned King Yagyu not to engage in unjust wars.

Such remarks naturally did not please King Yagyu, who used everything to the extreme. Originally, King Yagyu wanted to discuss more with Matsu Rize for the sake of Matsu Rize's generous tribute, but after Matsu Rize expressed his intention , I will no longer call Matsurizawa's name to answer.

At this time, it was almost noon, and King Yagyu had finished talking, and finally the heir Prince Jay came to the end.

In the end, Prince Jay came out to speak to the ministers and nobles of the kingdom, but in fact, he was just a mouthpiece, conveying the meaning of King Yagyu.

Its main meaning is to return the tribute to a group of pioneering nobles.

Just like Matsurize, a thousand craftsmen were rewarded, not slaves, not to mention the spoils brought back by King Yagyu this time, but all kinds of craftsmen belonging to the royal family, such as the famous blacksmiths on Songbai Island, as well as bricklayers, stonemasons, and even There are also two doctors detained by Earl Maris for crimes.

Matsurize got a population of 1000 at once, and they were all craftsmen with their own skills, and there were even two doctors.

Moreover, Prince Jay not only bestowed these thousand craftsmen, but also placed an order for a thousand Xiaohe knives.

Matsurize's Xiaohe Knife is now well-known, it is good and cheap, and the royal family has placed an order again, so there is no need to worry about not having Bailey in the account. The population of this area is 1000, and today's Xiaohe collar can naturally bear it.

Matsurize is not only thinking about the 1000 people, but also thinking about the more than 4 mountain people living in the wilderness.

Earl Megan received a lot of rewards, and many pioneering nobles received rewards, and many of them failed to open up the wilderness this time.

Of course, there are not only rewards, but also punishments.

The aristocratic ranks of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom are divided into five grades: princes, uncles, sons, and men. In this punishment, a viscount who succeeded in pioneering the wilderness was punished by being demoted to a baron because he did not pay enough tribute.

The level of this title is not just a false name of who is higher and who is lower, like the five-level titles of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom.

Take pioneering nobles as an example, the baron can open up the wilderness, form his own territory, and be self-sufficient, but the baron has a population limit, and can only build a village with a population of 3000, including all the population including slaves.

The viscount can reach [-], the earl can reach [-], the marquis can reach [-], and the duke can become a country within a country, reaching a million.

This is a system customized by King Yagyu, which was already established when the nobles were entrusted.

For example, the reason why Earl Stewart of Megan and Matsurize, Earl of Xiaohe are earls and cannot be raised to a higher level is because the Pine and Cypress Kingdom has only 30 people now, and it is impossible to entrust a Marquis with a population of 10. Not to mention the Duke of a million people.

This time, what Prince Jay said was not only demotion, but also nobles who were completely demoted to commoners.

The false nobles are also involved, and some false nobles have also been turned into pioneer nobles.

After Prince Jay finished speaking, the first court meeting of the Pine and Cypress Kingdom came to an end.

After the disintegration of the dynasty, the surrounding area of ​​Matsurize was surrounded by many pioneering nobles, the most of which were newly sealed pioneering nobles.

They all came for the Xiaohe Knife of Xiaohe Ling. It is difficult to see a large number of swords like Xiaohe Knife on Songbai Island on a large scale.

Moreover, famous knives of this level generally cost more than 5 pieces on Songbai Island, while [-] pieces like Xiaohe Ling are already very convenient.

Matsurize was able to control the price of Xiaohe knives at 5 a piece, and it was because of the assembly line work that he controlled the cost. Otherwise, it would take more than [-] a knife to make a profit.

Matsurize received a large deposit, and after the construction is completed, it will be traded in Shipwreck City.

Song Lize asked Baritu to take fifty Xiaohe soldiers to collect a thousand craftsmen, and then meet him outside the city wall.

Matsurize is very satisfied with the results of this time. It is rare to relax in his life. Matsurize wants to have a good time in this brand new shipwreck city.

This time, the thousand craftsmen bestowed by the royal family of the Songbai King reminded Matsurize that although Matsurize didn't want a large number of slaves who could not get rid of his grudges, it was still possible to buy a small number of craftsmen and keep them for himself.
