Throne of the North.

Chapter 119 The truth is exposed
Is it easy to redivide territory?

Of course it is not easy. Just look at the constant wars in Lingdu County before and in the entire Beifeng Province now.

The changes in the land are accompanied by the outbreak of blood and fire, and war and death are just the norm.

But after seven or eight days, the land division in the permafrost territory is finally coming to an end.

The first is the lordship system itself. Ryan first communicated with all the barons. If the lords themselves did not agree with the division of their original territories, then the exploitation of them by the barons they depended on would be absolutely extreme.

The barons need these lords to appear in their territories, so this matter is not the will of Ryan alone, but the idea of ​​all the barons and two viscounts in Lingdu County.

It was only because Ryan had conquered all the barons that these barons did not dare to oppose him, so in many places, even if they suffered losses, they had to accept it with a pinch of their nose.

Almost all the nobles believed that they had lost out in the outcome of this re-planning.

Those barons felt that they had lost out because they failed to get more. Many lords even lost their original knight territories and needed to open up new ones. Of course, they lost out even more.

But if everyone loses, who can make money?

Ryan must have made money. During this period, he didn't know how many promises he had received from these nobles. Some were paid in gold coins, and some guaranteed to transport wealth to the Frozen Territory every year for a certain number of years in the future.

Including two viscounts, of course, they needed to fulfill their promises because of the previous war.

For example, every year Ryan can get food and iron ore from the Miles family, as well as taxes and land ownership of two streets in Lingdu City.

The same thing happened with Viscount Dragun. Within ten years, Viscount Dragun would provide the Frozen Territory with food and metal.

This is the big share, and Ryan can also harvest food and gold coins from other nobles, big and small.

These are all the wealth brought by the war. Ryan roughly calculated that the wealth he could gain this year, if calculated in gold coins, should be about 100,000 gold coins.

It will decrease every subsequent year, but even in the smallest year, it will not be less than 50,000 gold coins.

In addition, during the war, his quota in the Ice Peak Forest also increased to 45%, and the wealth directly obtained in the subsequent wars, and even the ransom from Count Weiss for the more than 1,000 soldiers and Castor in the near future, will all be in his hands without a penny left.

The war in Lingdu County will bring Ryan an income of up to 700,000 gold coins in the next ten years.

On average, Ryan could earn 70,000 gold coins every year without doing anything.

This number cannot be matched even by the combined total of the two most powerful and wealthy barons in Lingdu County, Baron Kendra and Baron Barnes. It is considered good if they can have a wealth of more than 10,000 per year in their territories.

After all, the gap between baronies is still limited.

Even if Ryan does nothing, his territory cannot but develop, and the development of those wealth cannot but proceed. He is sure that starting from next year, the wealth production of the Frozen Territory itself can easily reach the scale of 20,000 to 30,000 gold coins per year, or even more.

There are 20,000 to 30,000 people in his territory, so there is still a lot to be discovered.

This is still based on the current situation.

All we can say is that in war, the winner takes all.

Ryan defeated the two major noble groups in Lingdu County, so he was able to get everything. On the contrary, if Viscount Miles or Viscount Dragun had won before, they would have obtained half of the wealth, that is, three or four hundred thousand gold coins, which would have been divided up among the other nobles.

In short, is it a lot? Not much, but definitely not less.

For a baron, it is definitely a life of luxury, but for Ryan's frozen land territory, the gold coins he spent on the development of the territory in the past ten years are probably more than 700,000. This is not enough, he has too many things to develop and build.

"The war in the Northern Province..."

Ryan stood in the castle on Rhino Horn Mountain, looking towards the south.

He has tasted the benefits of war, and now he can't help but want to get involved in the chaos in the North Wind Province.

But he also understood that those counties were definitely not as easy to penetrate as Lingdu County. After all, he was a noble lord of Lingdu County.

"I hope those earls can do something."

Ryan thought so, but he did not forget that the cat-man assassin came from the Earldom of Weiss. If that was the case, then the casualties of the extraordinary armies of the other two earls could all be counted on the head of Earl Weiss.

"The news of the assassination of Viscount Dragun's eldest son has been brewing for so long, the two earls should have reacted to it."

Ryan thought expectantly.

North Wind City.

This is the only huge city in the North Wind Province. The former Governor of the North Wind Province, Earl Winter, did not like staying in this city. He preferred to stay in his own territory fortress in the distant mountains.

But he hasn't left here recently.

"Viscount Dragun is dead. He died at the hands of that old fox Miles. Killing a viscount openly and honestly, old Miles must have gone crazy."

"But... Ellis Dragun was killed by an assassin... a cat-man assassin, by that cunning villain Love!"

boom!
Earl Winter smashed the gorgeous stone table in front of him to pieces. The power of the sanctuary made his blood and energy as powerful as a dragon, and his eyes revealed anger at this moment.

He finally learned the truth through his own channels. Ellis Dragun was indeed killed in an assassination. And in that war, it was certain that it was the old man Miles who wanted to make the Dragun family as decadent as the Miles family and complete his rule over Lingdu County once again.

If successful, Viscount Miles of Lingdu County will be able to firmly sit on his ruling throne for decades, and Earl Weiss... will also receive the support of Lingdu County.

"Love Weiss, what on earth do you want to do?"

Earl Winter looked in the direction of Thundercloud County. He always felt that this guy who defected to the empire had the eyes of an eagle and the mind of a wolf.

Thinking of this, he stood up and planned to go to the mountain with thunderclouds in person.

But before that...

He looked at the piece of paper falling to the ground. The final result of Lingdu County shocked everyone. The final winner was actually the Frozen Soil Baron.

"Let Alevia prepare a gift and send it to the Frozen Territory."

"That little fellow named Ryan came to my North Wind Province to be the lord, and I, the governor, have not even congratulated him yet."

Count Winter said this, and a servant outside the door responded and left.
