Black Iron Crown

Chapter 55: Spring is coming

Sir Cod's heart trembled. Earl Zhebo was the strongest nobleman in the North. He used to not dare to act rashly under the imperial decree prohibiting private fights. But at this time the emperor is seriously ill. Although the imperial family is not weak, it is restrained. The force has dropped.

   The sky is high in the north, and the emperor is far away, and the power of the royal family is suppressing the lords everywhere. Even if Earl Zhebo makes any action, it is difficult for the royal side to use troops to interfere.

  Sir Cod nodded. Although the Northland is not prosperous, the land is extremely fertile and has a lot of food production, not to mention the lord’s army lifeline, iron ore.

Once he annexed territories above the northern border, he would be the most powerful lord in the entire empire. I believe this temptation would be difficult for him to overcome. Thinking of this, Sir Cod immediately wanted to return to the territory and tell Lay about this. Satisfied.

   "Good Lord Earl, I will forward your words to my lord Baron Rainer!" Sir Cod saluted and said, "Please allow me to retire!"

   "Good Sir, you can leave at any time!" Count Weasley said.

   Leaving here, Lombard and Sir Cod looked at each other. The reminder of Earl Weasley made them frightened. If Earl Jeppel really wanted to annex the North, how could they resist.

  Sir Valas disagrees. As the top class in the magic world exchanged in the system, he single-handedly suppressed the strong orcs and wolf cavalry in the entire **** plain. The pride in his heart is unparalleled.

  In his opinion, as long as the Lord Baron exchanges another hundred, no, fifty companions, there is no need to fear that Earl Zhebo.

Two hours later, Earl Weasley’s people sent one hundred and seven gold coins and five silver coins. The whole small bag was filled with golden coins. But speaking of it, this kind of gold coins are rarely used for direct transactions. Except for large transactions, most of them are silver coins and copper.

   However, they did not exchange gold coins for silver and copper coins. This easy-to-carry gold coin is the best way to escort, otherwise it is likely to cause loss.

   In this way, they left the imperial capital, and Lombard was still reluctant to give up. Young people always have a yearning for such a prosperous big city.

   In this way, in the city guards' once again surprised eyes, the well-equipped and well-trained Morand Army appeared in their eyes.

   After a period of intense vigilance, the group of outsiders wearing armor and holding weapons finally left here.

Except for the imperial capital, they walked all the way north. After more than ten days, the farther north they are, the colder the place. They are about to reach the northern border at this time. There are already many small puddles on the ground, which appeared after the snow melted. .

   went north for nearly ten days and walked about two hundred kilometers. It was already obvious that some rustling snow still existed on the roadside, but it was much less than in winter.

   Looking at the familiar surroundings, Lombard couldn't help but burst into joy, driving the horses to start trotting around the team, causing Sir Cod to yell.

   The muddy road is very difficult to walk, but fortunately, their carriages didn't carry anything on them, so they didn't get stuck in the mud.

  Rainer is very dissatisfied with the current state of the territory. Before the heavy snow blocked the connection between him and the territory, the muddy land now hinders his orders.

To get rich, he does not understand the principle of building roads first. Many emperors in the previous celestial dynasties, especially the first emperor, built gallops. Although not for commercial services but for political needs, the importance of roads is self-evident. Metaphorical.

   But the cost of building a stone road is too high, not to mention that he does not have so much manpower to build such a difficult stone road. He is eager to get cement to make his territory extend in all directions.

However, the system did not give him this loophole. The cement technology required a full 1,500 points to be exchanged. Moreover, no lime ore was found in the entire northern border. If you want to exchange lime ore in the system, you need to exchange it. More expensive price.

   There is no way, now his deposit is only more than a hundred merits, and he can't exchange these things at all, so he can only sigh.

  Walking in the open space in the castle, Wend still practiced swordsmanship or equestrianism here uninterruptedly. At this time, he was flying up and down on a war horse, and he could see that his riding skills were quite adept.

   After all, as an aristocratic class, the military must remain strong. No matter what kind of aristocrat, the children of their family will start fighting practice at the age of eight, and the etiquette training courses will gradually decrease.

   was walking on the clearing, and the cool humid breeze blew on his face. The melting of the snow finally added a touch of moisture to the dry air, and no longer need to breathe a breath of air to dry his nose like in winter.

   The day of paying the salary is almost here, and he is a little worried. He is afraid that Sir Cod and others will not come back on time if there is an accident on the road, so he will face a huge dilemma.

   Another few days have passed~www.wuxiahere.com~ The snow on the ground has melted and is almost invisible, making the country roads and fields even more muddy.

   At this time, Sir Cod and others have already entered the range of Goreburg, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Fort Merland the next day.

   They stayed in Goerborg for one night. Before dawn the next day, they left Goerborg at dawn and rushed to Morandburg with the gold coins brought back from the imperial capital.

   That night, they appeared outside Fort Merand.

   "My Lord Baron, Sir Cod, they are back!" A guard followed behind a footman, who said to Rainer.

  Rainer got up from the chair with excitement immediately after hearing this: "Finally, I'm back!"

   He hoped that Sir Cod could bring him a surprise, a huge surprise.

Sir Cod had already taken off his armor at this time, put on a pale yellow uniform, walked into Lena’s room, and said: "My Lord Baron, the armor we built in the Imperial Capital and our trophies are all sold. To the royal family member of the imperial capital, Earl Wesley Moreland, we got one hundred and seven gold coins and five silver coins!"

"Okay! Very good!" Rainer laughed like a chrysanthemum when he heard this amount. It was beyond his expectation to sell such a high price. With this money, he can maintain the army for a month. In fact, as the main line of Fort Moreland, he really has no money to spend besides supporting the army. The more than one hundred gold coins are enough for him to support the army for more than a year.

   "Besides, Earl Weasley wants me to remind you!" Sir Cod stared into Rainer's eyes and said slowly.

   "What's the matter?" Tilted his head, Leiner looked at the other party's serious expression slightly and felt a little uncomfortable.
