Live Broadcast: I Am A Lord In Another World

"It is said that the rebel army first sprouted in the territory of an earl. The earl was very good at doing business. In order to obtain enough liquidity, the earl exchanged most of the food for money at the beginning of the year for business. The earl originally Counting on enough grain after the autumn harvest, who would have imagined that the locust plague will reduce the grain production by more than half, and in the case of grain shortage, the earl has money but can’t buy grain, so he can only increase taxes. Get in trouble.

On the square of the city, a businessman was slowly telling Richard about the situation of the rebel army in the kingdom.

"Count? For a count, there must be at least a thousand standing troops. Have you not suppressed it?"

Richard asked.

The businessman said: "I don't know the specific situation, anyway, the earl's castle was quickly breached by outside cooperation, and then more and more people joined in, they attacked the noble's castle one after another, robbed the food inside, Under such circumstances, more and more people joined the rebel army."

Richard asked: "Did the kingdom send troops to suppress it?"

The businessman said: "Sent, but the royal family did not expect the scale of the rebel army to be so large at first, and sent an army of tens of thousands of people to suppress it, but was attacked by the rebel army, and the entire army lost more than half, not to mention The wonderful thing is that similar turmoil and uprisings have appeared one after another in other places, it is said that a city has been breached, and now the king is preparing to recruit troops from all the nobles to suppress it."

Speaking of this, the businessman sighed and said: "No one has imagined the power of this locust plague. If the turmoil continues, some ambitious people may also participate in it, and the world will be in chaos."

Richard asked the businessman a lot of things.

These businessmen know quite a lot. Of course, most of them are just hearsay and he has never seen them.

He didn't know any more details.

After talking about the rebel army, the businessman hesitated for a moment, but he still spoke to Richard, saying:

"By the way, Lord Lord, I see that there are many corpses in the wilderness..."

"That's a horse thief."

Richard said lightly.

"Horse thief? So, the lord's city has also been recorded by the horse thief shop?"

said the businessman.

Richard said: "Yes, but they have already been defeated by me, just so, you see, they are prisoners."

Richard points in one direction.

The businessman looked and saw a large number of horse thief prisoners with iron chains on their hands and feet being escorted out of the barracks and sent to the hydropower station outside the city.

There were quite a few of these captives, and they lined up in several rows, pulling out a long line.

"so much!"

The businessman was startled!

He didn't know that there was a large-scale battle in Richard's territory not long ago!

Richard said lightly: "Well, there are a dozen horse thieves in total, seven or eight thousand people."

The businessman was shocked again.

Seven or eight thousand horse thieves is not a small number.

The fighting power of the horse thief is not weak.

However, so many horse thieves were actually defeated by Richard, and so many horse thieves were captured by Richard!

The businessman immediately had a feeling of admiration for Richard!

The original Richard had so much grain that the merchants couldn't figure out Richard's origin.

After all, Richard is just a Baron.

Still a knighthood to buy.

However, within a short period of time when Richard bought the title, the entire territory was completely renewed.

Not only built a huge city, but also established a powerful army, and now they can win more with less, defeating seven or eight thousand horse thieves!

Such a Richard, in the eyes of these businessmen, is probably not even comparable to some viscounts!

After chatting with the businessman, Richard sold him a lot of "luxury goods" such as potatoes and porcelain glasses, but this time the businessman didn't buy too many "luxury goods".

However, Richard also raised the price of potatoes a lot, from 10 copper coins per catty to 15 copper coins per catty.

up by half.

"Lord, to tell you the truth, now that the country is in turmoil, nobles have less demand for these luxuries and greater demand for food. In addition, if the lord has enough ironware

Even weapons can be sold to us, and we can charge as much as we have. I am afraid that the time for the rebels to make trouble will not be short, and the demand for iron will become extremely high. "

said the businessman to Richard.

Food can be sold.

As for ironware... Richard is not ready to sell yet.

Even if he wants to sell, Richard will not sell refined steel, but it is possible to sell some inferior ironware.

Although the "luxury" merchant didn't charge much, the police still earned dozens of gold coins due to the increase in the price of potatoes and the increase in the number of carriages brought by the merchant.

After the businessman left, other businessmen came one after another, bringing more news.

And as the news spread, the war that took place in Richard's territory also spread from their mouths.

It caused a lot of shock in some cities.

It also gave Richard's name a certain degree of popularity in this different world.

'."Master, big turmoil is coming!"

After receiving all the merchants, in Richard's castle, Mia stood behind Richard and said.

At this time, Richard was standing on the height of the castle, overlooking the whole city.

The current city has become quite prosperous, and a large number of residents have moved in. These people are working on Richard's territory, and some people have rented some houses from Richard, and started catering and the like. Business.

The merchants and their guards who came to the city were their customers.

In the later stage, Richard plans to gradually reduce the "food and drink" treatment, increase part of the salary, and then let go of food purchases. The residents of the territory can also buy potatoes and other foods from him for secondary processing and sales, so that the economy of the entire territory Prosper thoroughly.

At that time, not only can you make money by selling food, but you can also earn a lot of gold coins by extracting commercial taxes.

Now, though, Richard wasn't thinking about that.

It is an opportunity in this (Li Le's) great turmoil.

For Richard, this wave of great turmoil also contains great opportunities.

Even if he doesn't think about longer-term things, this wave of volatility, if he grasps it well, the strength in his hand can be multiplied many times.

Even a wave of takeoff is possible.

However, before that, the two viscounts who had made up his mind could be dealt with first.

"Has Dorothy gone?"

Richard asked.

Mia nodded, and said: "Yes, we have already set off, and I also sent spies to explore the territory of the two viscounts, master, the territories of the two viscounts are not close, if there are no cavalry, we must go there and attack It does take a lot of time.”

Richard said: "No, after the people arrive, just take the people there and buy them."

Mia showed surprise: "Master, will it be too obvious to employ a horse?"

Richard said: "Don't worry, Mia, it's so turbulent now, no one will notice that the two viscounts disappeared."
