Heroes of Silver Moon Chapter 618

"Boy, take care of yourself!" Finally, when the time for parting came, Jona patted Simon on the shoulder and sighed earnestly.

His main battlefield is in the royal capital, and Simon's main battlefield is in Xinfaling. They are separated by thousands of miles. We say goodbye today, and we don't know when we will meet again in the future.

"You too!" Simon nodded at Jonah, then looked at Guy and others, preparing to leave with the king's army.

During the past few days in Xinfaling, they were very happy, but unfortunately, their lives were always in the capital.

Even Irina, who was engaged to Simon, boarded the carriage reluctantly.

Engagement is not marriage after all, and she cannot live here with Simon until she is officially married.

The mighty group of people gradually drifted away, gradually disappearing.

Simon, who stood from morning to noon, came back to his senses in a daze, then suddenly woke up, turned to Deborah and the others and said, "Call Christine, you come to my study."

Not long after, a group of people gathered in the lord's study.

They are Harris, Deborah, Christine, and Siegel, Bullard, Gratton, and Alyosha, a total of seven people.

"Simon, did you ask us to come?" Looking at the people in the study, Deborah asked excitedly.

He already had a faint guess in his heart. Simon has promised to give them a bright future for these people in the room...

Now, is it time to deliver on the promise?

"It's for the reward."

Without making a fuss, Simon said straightforwardly: "I will give you two options. One is to break away from the new legal system. I will cede some of the fiefs to you so that you can build your own family. Both Harris and Christine will get three fiefs of two towns, two for Deborah, and one for the rest."

Harris wants to marry Xiludi, and Xiludi's father is a well-known lord in the kingdom. If he wants to make people look up to him, he can't be the son of a mere knight.

The fiefs of the three towns are the entry requirements for the real earl. Based on the relationship between Simon and the king, as long as the fiefs are in place, the title can be obtained at any time.

This is a dowry gift prepared by Simon for his brother, and the other single dogs don't have this kind of treatment.

After Christine returned from the royal capital, he followed Simon's arrangement and has been working as a political officer in Xinfa. His reward was promised by Simon to his mother Hina.

Other than that, Deborah and Siegel received normal rewards.

Harris, Deborah and others were obviously taken aback by Simon's boldness, and looked at each other in surprise.

In total, there are 12 town territories. After the new French territory merged with the mountain territory, although there are forty-five town territories, nearly half of them are mountainous areas that are difficult to develop.

Of course, Simon wouldn't give them the mountain land, that's just playing tricks, and he couldn't do it.

Give them twelve towns, which is almost half of the land that can be developed in the new law.

"What about the second choice?" Just as everyone was short of breath, the taciturn Graton suddenly asked, and everyone immediately pricked up their ears.

After taking a deep look at Graton, Simon said, "If you stay in the new French collar system, I will give you knighthoods and knighthoods. Harris, Christine, and Deborah will be knighted, and you four will be knighted."

In the previous enfeoffment system, the knight was the lord's lord, the lord's lord was the lord's lord, the lord was the lord's lord, and the lord was the king's lord.

The classes are clearly defined and progressive, the vassals of my vassals are not my vassals.

But with the development of the times, countries have already begun to move towards centralization.

If it hadn't been hit by dimensionality reduction, the Blue Kingdom that Simon had been to might have completed the unification as early as fifty or sixty years ago.

If you have to refer to the era on Blue Star, it is probably the dividing line from Huaxia, Spring and Autumn to Warring States.

Talking about enfeoffment is not enfeoffment, and talking about centralization is not centralization, but something in between.

Today's knights seldom choose to entrust the knights, but to serve the lord together with the knights. No matter how big or small the lord is, he must be loyal to the king.

There is no such thing as the best of both worlds.

Either choose a fief and become a lord to be loyal to the king, or choose to adopt a servant and become a retainer to be loyal to him as a lord.

"If we choose fiefdom, you won't distribute it to our people!" Graton hit the crux of the problem.

He didn't believe that Simon would be so kind, and would give them the part that was opened up with great difficulty. Now, half of the land that is suitable for living in Xinfaling is just wasteland.

Once the other people were reminded, they also thought of this point one after another, and they all fell silent. Without people, gold coins, and soldiers, what is the use of a wasteland for them?

But, that's a fief...

Even if it is a piece of wasteland, if the fiefdom of a town is put up for auction, at least tens of thousands of gold coins can be sold.

"Of course not!" Simon shook his head as a matter of course.

To cede the fief is already showing brotherhood, and now the residence opened by the new French leader has cost him hundreds of thousands of gold coins, so why should he distribute it to these people.

After all, if you break away from the new legal system, you are no longer your own...

Simon may help them, but he will definitely not be stupid and help them in a way that seriously damages his own interests.

"I choose to stay in the new law!" Graton said without hesitation.

Everyone who was hesitating was startled, and all their eyes were on him.

"Don't be blinded by names and illusory things."

Gratton said lightly: "Among the few of us, except for Harris who is under pressure, we all have nothing to do. If this is the case, why bother to ask for trouble?"

Don't look at just a little knight.

But staying in the new law, can Simon really treat them badly?

The most important thing in life is to always be self-aware! It's not the piece of material to be a lord, so why bother to scrape it together?

"It makes sense, I'll stay too." Siegel nodded in agreement.

He is a man with a bold temperament at best, and rude and sloppy at worst. He even finds it troublesome to manage the army. How can he successfully build a territory from scratch?

"May I ask about the treatment of staying in the new French territory?" After careful consideration, Bold asked.

He is confident that he can manage a piece of territory well, but he must also consider the ratio of effort and gain, and he will only choose the option with a higher ratio.

"From generation to generation, prosperity and wealth!" Simon smiled mysteriously and replied ambiguously.

After staring into Simon's eyes for a while, Bourde sighed: "I'll stay too."

Compared with governing territories with uncontrollable risks, the income of being a vassal may be lower, but it is definitely more stable. Some small lords may not necessarily have the vassals of the big lord, so they can live freely.

"That, that, then I'll stay too!" Alyosha, who had never had a strong opinion, saw the other three members of the foursome making choices one after another, so he also decided to stay.

It is absolutely right to follow the masses, anyway, everyone will be in the same situation at that time...

"I'll stay too." Deborah said with a sigh.

He participated in the development of the new legal territory, and has been serving as the chief administrative officer of the new legal territory. He knows how difficult it is to build a territory from scratch.

Christine looked at Harris, then at Deborah and the others who made the choice, and asked with a tangled expression: "If I want to build a territory, can I borrow resources from the Hawke family?"

Unlike Deborah and others, he is Simon's younger brother, a member of the Hawke family, and his father Valery is still the head of the Hawke family.

In comparison, if he chooses to be a lord, he may be able to get the support of his family.

"No!" Simon looked at Christine and said meaningfully: "But as your eldest brother, I will give you some help."

"Uh, forget it, I'll stay too!" Christine resolutely chose to refuse.

His old brother is not very reliable. When he went to school in the capital, he was bullied by Simon. The entire circle of nobles in the capital wanted to kill him!

If you choose to go it alone this time, you may be tricked into something...

Seeing other people looking over, Harris' eyes moved slightly with a confused look on his face. Everyone chose to stay, and he was the only one left.

However, he still wants to marry Xiludi...

Xi Ludi's father, Earl Hamilton, is not so easy to talk to. If you want to marry your daughter from him, you must show your own value.

"Don't hesitate, stay in Xinfaling~www.mtlnovel.com~ Simon really can ignore you and Xiludi." Siegel patted Harris on the shoulder carelessly.

During the two years when he and Bullard were refrigerated by Simon, it was Harris who kept looking for them to reminisce about the past and cheer him up, so he didn't get discouraged, and finally waited for it to be used again.

Now the Harris authorities are fans, of course he wants to drag Harris out!

"Huh?" Harris was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized.

yes! If he continues to stay in Xinfa, can Simon really ignore them? At that time, he will definitely try to impress Earl Hamilton.

Just like helping Guy to impress Viscount Doyle in the capital, you know, in the end Guy managed to marry Alicia.

Although the difficulty is higher this time because of the difference in status, isn't Simon powerful and omnipotent?

"I'll stay too!" Harris looked at Simon triumphantly, as if he was happy to see through this guy's past.

"Okay!" Simon looked a little tired.

He is indeed lost in the past, after all, with a bunch of younger brothers, he has to be responsible for them, let them be independent as soon as possible, and also get rid of the burden as soon as possible.

But why, Graton, a guy who is too sober, doesn't talk about martial arts, it's fine if he sees it through himself, so why do he have to speak out to remind others?

It's good now, I have to solve problems for this group of guys again, and I'm almost exhausting him...

"Notify everyone that a military and political meeting will be held tomorrow!" Simon put down his teacup and said helplessly.

This is just a small meeting held by my own brothers. The retainers and children like Galken and Maslan, as well as the people who joined later like Wallace, have no right to choose at all.

If you can be assigned to retainers, you can have fun secretly!
