Frontier Lord Starts Out With a Population of 0
Families Day 2, King's Order to Eldan
According to Eldan, the Flame Dragon's Magic Stones were delivered to King's City by Eldan's men.
It was like a gift to the king or a thank-you for not paying taxes... and the king was so happy about it.
It seems that Eldan also gave various gifts at that time, and by doing so, he tried to reduce his jealousy towards us without paying taxes for three years...
It seems that there were quite a few nobles who were actually jealous of us, but the number was drastically reduced by the gift of a flame dragon magic stone, something that might be worth more than the tax that those nobles are paying.
It is well known in the King's City that there are no products such as this in the Maybadar prairie, and there are no people, and it is not possible to collect taxes. Even though it is damaged under such circumstances, if you gave the Dragon Magic Stone, it would be worth too much tax... I wonder what three years of tax exemption was, is it equivalent to three years of the previous Earth Dragon Magic Stone and this Magic Stone alone... It seems that some people who could not be jealous and were aiming at harassment with it lost their title of purpose...
"But Eldan, if that's all right with us, isn't there a problem with jealousy or harassment towards Eldan?"
The territory of Eldan is wider than the Maybadar grasslands, where many people live and where there are many specialties.
If you receive the same three-year tax exemption as me in such a state, you will be exposed to more jealousy and harassment than you had been directed at me, and Eldan will reply to my question with a smile.
"Your Majesty adjusted to the situation.
Your Majesty would like to thank Diaz for the Magic Stone, but there is no way for him to know what he wants right now, as it is difficult for him to get in touch from afar.
That is why I, the lord who ruled the nearest territory, was ordered to give him what he wanted on behalf of His Majesty...
It is an honor to act on behalf of His Majesty as Duke, and it is an obligation... I can never refuse, and by consuming the appropriate money and goods as an obligation, I have such an intention in the King's decree... eventually, when I met him in person, I thought I would talk about this matter, so I came here... "
That said, Eldan begins to explain the story in detail.
I've heard similar stories before, but when it comes to formal royalty, the importance is different, and the size or value of the gift is comparable to what it used to be… It wasn't up to Ellie and Camarots, who had been on each other's territory several times, but they needed to talk about what Eldan and I wanted to meet in person to hear their opinions.
It seems that even if we don't report it, we have to send the corresponding goods to the King's Landing on such a scale that the story naturally becomes rumored...
"─ ─ I don't think I can immediately come up with what's good about suddenly.
There is no problem during this trip or when you come back there after completing the trip to let me know your wishes.
If you do that, we'll be ready for you soon. "
That's what Eldan said when he finished explaining... he started to mouth the tea prepared by the side for a break... so Arnah, who had grown up next to me, followed me on the flank a little bit.
(It's a horse, I want a horse, a trained, high-quality army horse is expensive enough to accumulate gold, so it would be perfect for this conversation)
And then he whispered to me... and then he moved his ears twitching and heard them whispering, and Senai and Aihan smiled and said that the horse was good, and she would send me a signal that if Emma, who was on my shoulder, nodded small enough, it would be good for the horse.
Horses... horses...
Received 6 horses from Eldan as a thank you for the flame dragon material, and promised Juuha to buy more horses the other day. Apparently, Arner wants more horses.
Well, those six are supposed to be used by the Seki, Saku, and Aoi brothers in the shopping mall, and they will spend most of their time outside the territory... because it seems that ordinary horses and army horses are different again.
Of course, army horses are in better shape than ordinary horses. They are brave and obedient. If you instruct them to cross the saddle, they can attack any place without fear, no matter what they are waiting for.
Its assault power is overwhelming, and it can crush enemy forces by simply trampling them with weapons... naturally, it runs at uneven speeds.
(A good army horse gives birth to a good son.
The Maybadar prairie will increase the number even if it is left alone, and the more the number, the more it can be sold.
That way, you'll be able to make it a specialty, and the more horses you have, the more wealth they will produce and help you... 100, 200 is still not enough, 1000, 2000 is not a problem, even if it's over 12,000, you won't find it hard to take care of it.
Of course wolves and monsters don't come near the grasslands where a lot of horses run... please, Diaz, give me a good army horse.
As far as I can tell, there's a lot of wilderness, little grass, and it's not a good place to grow more horses... if we can grow more horses, it should be good for the Eldans.)
When Arnah told me that and I was worried... the smiling Eldan was small, but surely... he nodded in such a way that I could clearly understand.
... so Eldan was also a good listener...
That means you've heard Arnah whispering, and you're nodding that there's nothing wrong with demanding an army horse, as Arnah said.
In that case, if I decide to do what Arnab says, and I try to raise my voice... it's unusual for only Eihan to raise his voice.
"No, Arner, this is what we're doing here.
I mean, there's a strawberry in the strawberry, but I didn't do it deliberately.
Maybe that's how you keep your pussy from falling apart.
If you don't have a pussy, a lot of pussy can't come out, and a lot of pussy can't come out, you can't have a shiitake, you can't have a toilet, and it's very expensive. "
And I said, "Yeah?"As she leans her neck with her voice up... Eldan turns her eyes round, Patty next to Eldan turns her eyes round, and the beasts who were watching us start groaning.
Suddenly, Juuha suddenly slapped herself hard on the knee... and shouted out at Juuha with an unusual impression.
"This is amazing!
Lord Maybadar's daughter is brilliant!
Horses are certainly handy, but they eat plenty of water!Without them on the road, we can't operate… By deliberately drying up some local grass and thoroughly managing waterways and wells, we can restrict and guide the path when enemies attack, as is convenient for us!
There is also a hand to prepare leaves, but it is like wearing shoes and scraping feet so as to compress the load.
No, I'm really impressed, I feel like I've been studying. "
Juuha's manners were so exaggerated, so purposeful... that she thought that there might be some sort of temptation behind the words.
Or are you trying to deceive something, or did you deliberately raise your voice in a conspicuous way to do so... there was something next to Arner that made the corner weaker than usual, slightly redder and more visible.
... but, yeah, it doesn't feel like there's something I think about us from the way Juuha looks, it doesn't feel like there's hostility, it's like I lied to you somehow... from the length of my relationship, I realize things around here, and I turn back to Eldan and say, "I want to change the story."
"Ah... Eldan, if that's the case, I'd really like a horse, but can you get me some?
I'll leave the quality and number to Eldan and the others, so I want you to be prepared for the king's orders. "
Then Eldan nodded deeply and bigger than before, so that the surroundings could understand... the gestures of the beasts who were watching us were changing to something bright, happy, or happy.
