Start As a Lord In a Viscount

Chapter 35: : Hemp bandits are always going to be suppressed!

Early in the morning, everyone saw that there was an additional notice on the city wall, but unlike before, this time there was no need to find someone who could read it. Robin had been standing under the notice since the notice was posted. Pedestrians passing by explain the contents of the above notice.

In less than a morning, the people inside and outside Nafu City knew that their lord was going to hold a new speech.

At noon, the same wooden platform as before was built, and people from all over the place gradually gathered here.

Nearing the afternoon, those nobles also came over in their own carriages, but Claire deliberately did not set up seats. They could only stand like the people, and from time to time they had to take out handkerchiefs to wipe the sweat on their faces.

After about an hour or two, when the sun was about to go down, Claire was late.

Before he showed up, the nobles below heard violent cheers and applause from behind. Claire was much more popular than they thought.

"Good afternoon, everyone!" Claire smiled and stood on the platform.

"Your Excellency the Viscount, Gui'an!"

"Lord Viscount is doing well every day!"

"May the reputation of the Viscount reverberate throughout the world!"

The people below waved their hands in greeting. Since the end of Claire's speech last time, most of them have become Claire's little fans and little fans.

Claire waved her hand, and the people below consciously stopped their voices.

"I called everyone here this time, mainly to suppress the bandits. The bandits outside the city have always been a problem for us in Nafu City, and they even dared to assassinate me and **** the goods of our Nafu City!"

The people below quietly looked at Claire on the stage. Indeed, as Claire said, the robbers did more than that. Sometimes when there was a lack of food, they would break into the village to **** food and loot some Women, the hatred in their hearts is very.

"Mah...Bah! Robbers are always going to be killed! Think about it! When you were drinking fine wine and hugging the maid at home, there was a sudden news that your goods had been robbed by the robbers! So, no The days of robbers are good days!"

The people below didn't know why, but they still shouted: "Yes!"

But why did the nobles below sound a little uncomfortable? They always felt that Claire had something to say on stage.

"However, because I returned to the territory for the first time, all the funds I had prepared were used to train the knight team, and the tax reduction was so much, and now there is not enough money for us to go to suppress the bandits, so now we have gathered everyone here. I hope you can help a little and donate some money, of course, donating more and donating less is all in your heart!"

Although Baron Eugene felt that the previous words were a bit wrong, he didn't have time to think about it. Now it's time for him to go out.

"Lord Viscount said it well, the days without robbers are good days! I, Baron Eugene, invested 50,000 gold coins to suppress the robbers!"

After waving his hand, the people below him immediately took several large boxes of gold coins from the carriage to the stage, and opened them all at once. The glittering gold coins almost blinded the eyes of the people below.

"Turtle, I have never seen so much money in my life."

"I never dared to think like that in my dreams."

The people below stared straight in their eyes. They rarely even saw a single gold coin on weekdays. How could they have seen such a big scene.

"The administrative officer of my Viscounty also donated 30,000 gold coins." Frank also stood up and said, but he was not as relaxed as he showed. Looking at the gold coins that were put on the stage, his heart was bleeding, and he and Unlike the nobles, he knew that he could not get the money back after donating it.

After two people took the lead, the rest of the nobles also stood up and announced the remuneration they had donated.

The people below looked at the whole boxes of gold coins piled up above, and they didn't know how to react for a while. They didn't even know what to show, and some were just shocked.

But after the shock, everyone quickly took out their pockets, took out all the money in their pockets, and ran to the table to put them on.

"Although I don't donate much, I hope I can help the Viscount!" a member of the public shouted.

"Yes! I don't have any money on me now. I'll get it back when I get home!"

"I will also go back and get the money from the bottom of the box. Lord Viscount is a good man, and I am willing to donate my money to him!"

"Me too! We all believe in the Viscount!"

The people below put their money up one after another. Some copper coins and silver coins piled up and quickly formed a hill, and people kept taking their savings from their homes and putting them on top.

The nobles below showed their gums when they laughed. Sure enough, these stupid pariahs took out all the money themselves when they cheated!

It's that Claire felt a little guilty on stage. Although it was only a temporary lie, she still felt a little bit sorry. But there is no way, if you don't do this, you won't be able to deceive the nobles at all.

This fund-raising event lasted until the sun went down. In addition to the gold coins donated by the nobles, the people donated nearly 20,000 gold coins. Not only some commoners will donate, but some middle-class families have also donated. Quite a few, if it came down in total, nearly everyone donated more than ten silver coins

He asked the knights to carry all the gold coins on the stage onto the carriage and transported them back to the Viscount's mansion. Robin, the tax officer, calculated the total amount of money collected against the ledger in the carriage.

"Early morning tomorrow! The knights will set off to suppress the bandits!" Claire said at the last second before the sunset.

……

In the morning, before the sun rose, the main street of Nafu City was crowded with people, all of them squatting here with fruits and flowers in their hands.

"Da da da!"

The sound of neat hooves came, and everyone looked over.

The knight captain, Hunter, rode a war horse and walked at the front of the team. All the knights were wearing heavy armor, and the silver armor exuded a dazzling light. Just over 60 knights rode their horses like a torrent of steel and walked slowly towards the crowd. Come.

The momentum was beyond words, and everyone who was waiting at the scene was stunned. They had never seen such a majestic knight, and such a majestic knight belonged to their Viscounty, so they should go out to suppress bandits for them. Yes, a sense of pride welled up in my heart.

The horses carried the knights slowly from the main street all the way to the city gate, and the people followed along to the city gate. At this time, Claire had been waiting here for a long time.

"Dismount!" Hunter ordered!

The sixty knights immediately strode off their horses, and their movements were uniform.

Hunter walked in front of Claire and knelt down and said loudly: "Lord, your knight team is assembled!" The knights behind him also knelt down with his movements~www.wuxiahere.com~ Claire took the flowers from the people and handed it to Hunter, who was half-kneeling on the ground, "Get up."

"Yes! Lord Lord!"

The knights stood up abruptly again, and the armors rubbed against each other and made a harsh sound, but no one thought it was noise, only thought it was very cool, wishing it was themselves wearing the armor.

Claire glanced at the excited people around, smiled and waved their hands. The people understood what Claire meant, and hurried over, stuffing the gifts they had prepared into the hands of the knights.

Those teenagers were a little overwhelmed by the things in their hands, and even Hunter was a little overwhelmed. He had never seen such a battle before.

When he was a knight in the past, these people feared them like tigers, not to mention giving gifts, it would be nice if they didn't take a sip from the back.

Claire said: "Take it, those gifts they gave you represent their hearts. Don't feel embarrassed, you are not only fighting for me, but for them!" Claire is telling the truth, although They did not intend to suppress the bandits this time, and some of them stole their names, but what they did was a good thing for the people.

"Yes!" The teenagers looked at the fruits and flowers in their hands, and there was a different kind of excitement in their hearts. It turned out that as a knight, they could still gain the support of the people.

Claire pulled out the matching sword from her waist, and nodded on Hunter's shoulders and head, even if the ceremony was done.

Then he pointed the tip of his sword outside the city gate and shouted, "Let's go!"

The knights immediately got on their horses, saluted like Claire, and then drove out on the horses!
