I am reincarnated in the heavens in another world

Chapter 42 What?You want to sell the territory?
After finishing speaking, Baron Manke was a little surprised and said: "Viscount Rocco, when I came just now, I saw the city wall. Dare I ask, are you planning to build the territory into a city like Black Rock City?" Baron Manke was a little envious.If there is this city, can the barbarians be so presumptuous?
Even if the defense of this city is not very good, as long as it has enough troops, it can withstand the barbarian attacks every year.

You know, at the end of each year, most of the gold coins of those nobles are spent on hiring mercenaries and buying people.With the city, it is completely different.Therefore, the nobles in this world are still very friendly to their own people.

As long as you don't violate the laws of the territory, you can basically exchange your hard work for enough food.Looking at other territories, just like Butler Hughes said, the tax level is 7 levels, and the remaining three levels are all used by the people who save money for food.Not counting the salary he usually gets from working for the lord.Although it is small, it can also add some new things every year.

Compared with Blue Star or the medieval aristocratic system on Earth, I don't know how much better it is.

"Well, Baron Mank, as you can see, I am planning to build a city, just like Black Rock City, so that neither my subjects nor I need to worry about the barbarians every year, and those from the Jones Mountains from time to time Beast riots. You also know that even if those barbarians dare not directly attack my territory, they will occasionally rob my people of food or money." Rocco nodded, and there was nothing he did not admit.After all, others are not blind.

"Oh! It's really... so wise, Viscount Rocco. I have known for a long time that the Falek family is the nobles of the kingdom, and they really have abilities that ordinary people don't have. Moreover, all the people of the Viscount are working hard for the city. It's very enviable." Baron Mank smacked his lips.

"Then, Baron Manke, let's continue the topic just now. In this extraordinary period, how did you come to my territory?" Rocco said casually.Interrupted Baron Mank's desire to continue, and went straight to the point.

No way, Rocco's title is greater than the baron.That's how willful it is.

"Oh, yes. So, Viscount Rocco, do you know if you are interested in purchasing a barony?" Baron Mank regained his composure.Said lightly.

"What?" Rocco looked at Baron Mank in surprise. Rocco never thought that Baron Mank came here to sell his territory. Are you crazy?
You know, nobles with territories and nobles without territories are completely different things.

Look at Rocco's surprised look.The corner of Manke's mouth twitched, and he nodded, "That's right, Viscount Rocco. I plan to sell the redstone collar. I believe you know that little nobles like us spend a lot of gold coins every year to resist the barbarians. I can only save a small part of my annual income. If it weren’t for the trade relationship between the Redstone Territory and Viscount Rocco, I might not be able to persist. Moreover, the attacks of the barbarians are getting stronger every year. There is no way to do this. .”

Baron Manke smiled bitterly, and said again: "It's better to sell the territory and become a leisurely nobleman. I can also let people form caravans, or open some stores in Black Rock City, and barely maintain it. It's not that I don't have ambitions , but the strength is not enough. Aren't those nobles who have no territory like this? Hey!!"

"Then, Baron Mank, how much gold do you plan to sell Redstone Leader?" Rocco asked.Rocco still knows about the redstone collar.The livestock and some mahogany on his territory are all from the redstone collar. Although these things don't make much money, they can still earn hundreds of gold coins every year.

If he really bought those livestock, Rocco could get them into his own territory and designate a piece of land for those who specialize in raising livestock. Barbarians would not be interested in wood for the remaining mahogany.

Just send some people there and you can build a satellite town.Not flattering. ?
"Viscount Rocco, I don't want any more. You can get 500 gold coins from the redstone collar. I can guarantee that the gold coins earned by the redstone collar every year will definitely exceed this amount."

Rocco nodded, the price of Baron Mank is quite reasonable.

Maybe Baron Manke is already determined to buy some stores in Black Rock City.It's withdrawing funds.

Rocco looked at Baron Mank again and said: "Baron Mank, may I ask how many knights and warriors you have? Don't get me wrong, I'm just asking casually."

Baron Manke said with a wry smile: "How much more can there be? I can hardly support those knights and warriors. Otherwise, how can I sell my territory. My strength is silver, and I have a silver knight leader under my command. There are about 20 fighters with a bit of fighting spirit. Hey, I can’t resist. If these fighters have not been the citizens of the territory for generations and swore allegiance to me, they might have left a long time ago.” Baron Manke looked bitter.

It turns out that the little nobles are like this.It was the first time for Rocco to see other nobles.When he crossed over, the person in front of him had almost managed the territory.Although most of the food and resources were spent on the army, it didn't make the people hungry.Taxes were also lowered and land was divided.

After all, Rocco took advantage of it.

A small territory like the Redstone Collar is well managed by the Baron Mank.If it weren't for the border, which was invaded by barbarians every year, Rocco believed that Baron Mank would definitely be able to develop the Redstone Territory.if. . . . . .

Rocco looked at Baron Mank with bright eyes.

Baron Mank trembled.Some nervously said: "That... Viscount Rocco. I don't know what you want?" I really can't stand Rocco's eyes.Baron Mank asked directly.

"That. Baron Mank. Look, we are building a city in Falek Territory, and it will be completed next year at the most. It will definitely be more prosperous than Black Rock City by then. I wonder if you are interested in settling here?"

Baron Manke felt relieved, what was going on.But he was a little embarrassed.Comparing the new city with the already developed Blackstone City, we all know that there is no comparison.Rocco asked this, not to embarrass him. . .

The scene suddenly became tense.

Baron Manke's son, Little Manke is only 15 years old now, and he hasn't held a coming-of-age ceremony yet, so he hasn't been officially named yet. Now the little guy is nervously looking at his father and Viscount Rocco.

Although he is young, the children of nobles in this world are very precocious.He has been educated since he was a child and knows a lot.

Next to him, Klee and Butler Hughes were also a little nervous. Why didn't Rocco play the cards according to the routine today.Others are just here to buy and sell territories.Now that Rocco is here, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Rocco has other ideas.
