Chapter 157

Nord sat in front of the desk with his arms around his chest and leaned against the chair. Nord was more comfortable in this position. If Abbott was in the study, Nord would not dare to pose like this, otherwise he would nag continuously when no one was there. Nord was most afraid of nagging in both previous and present lives.

Sitting opposite Nord is old Moore. Nord is not so strict about the rules. If it is not necessary, Nord sits down with them to discuss things. If Nord sits and they stand, Nord will be very uncomfortable.

"You may have to go back later. Take the bow and arrow squadron of Nanshan stronghold and take the prisoners with you. When you arrive, just give it to Hansen and let them go to the mine first. Then I'll make other arrangements. You don't have to worry too much."

Old Moore's face showed a thoughtful look and thought for a while. It seemed that he thought of something. After several months of experience in the South Mountain stronghold, old Moore also became calm and considerate. He raised his head and asked Nord:

"Well, after sending the prisoners, should I take the archer squadron back to Nanshan stronghold or stay in Tami village? The mountain people of Nanshan stronghold Archer squadron still have a great freshness to the outside world and don't have to return for a while."

In fact, Nord has been thinking about this problem carefully for a long time. Because the archer squadron climbed the city wall at the back, the casualties are not very serious. Unlike the Lancer Squadron, it has basically lost its combat effectiveness and needs to replenish soldiers immediately. Therefore, Nord plans to let the archer squadron stay in Tami village temporarily to deter these prisoners, Prevent someone from escaping.

"Just stay in Tami village and wait for me. I'll rush back to Tami village after I deal with isaacburg. Then I'll give you an order. In the next few days, you should help Hansen take good care of these prisoners and don't let them cause trouble in Tami village."

Old Moore nodded heavily, indicating that he had understood Nord's orders. Nord was still very reassured about old Moore's work, so after he nodded, Nord didn't ask him too much and directly asked him to start immediately. Now it's just after noon. If he is ready to start immediately, he can return to Tami village before dark.

Looking at the back of old Moore leaving, Nord thought in his mind whether he had missed anything. After all, Nord ruled such a large territory for the first time, which is completely different from the Tami village that he could visit a few minutes ago.

This is a real Viscount leader, which is completely different from Nord's castrated version of the Viscount leader. In fact, according to reason, a village is just a baron leader. Although there are about 100 miles of mountains, Tami village is not qualified to be a Viscount leader at all.

It's certain that Nord was cheated, but Nord didn't have the strength to argue with the aristocracy. After all, the position of the aristocracy is very special in the whole continent. The aristocracy of the Duchy of Bethel only needs to be responsible for Duke Bethel, and has the qualification to participate in all kinds of things of the aristocracy. Although there is no force in his hand, he still has considerable power.

Every country on the mainland has a house of nobility, but they have no subordinate relationship with each other, and they only exchange some information with each other. It is said that the institution of the house of nobility was established by the Eresin empire that unified the mainland at that time.

The Empire used the house of Lords to help the nobles govern various territories. At that time, its power was towering, but now its glory has ended with the glory of the Empire.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so Nord can only eat a dumb one. Who let Nord bully at that time? It is a well deserved fat meat in Bellon city. Everyone wants to bite. Nord at that time thought silently in his heart. Don't bully the young poor for 30 years east and West (hahaha).

But now, with the territory of the kreisen family, Nord is very satisfied. This is equivalent to a huge Viscount collar. Now it's Nord's turn to be fat and full of oil. Now Nord has some indigestion, because there are not so many people to manage so many places.

At least for the three villages under isaacburg, Nord can't take care of it for a while, but Nord will have a good look tomorrow. Although he can't send someone to manage it, Nord will hold him tightly in his hand. If he can't eat the meat in his bowl, he will stay at the next meal. Nord is very hungry now.

Scholar hill and a group of people soon came to the market. Because of the war yesterday, today's market was very cold. There were no shops opening. These businessmen were first intimidated by housekeeper Barry, and then there was a war, and basically all who could run ran away.

Those who stayed were hiding in the house and didn't dare to go out at all for fear that the battle would affect them, so the doors were closed tightly, and no one dared to go out, even to inquire about the news, waiting for the two sides of the battle in the castle to decide the outcome.

Under Harry's leadership, Hill scholar came to the grain store. There was no special office in the market. Before, Barry housekeeper's management of the market was very loose. As long as he could pay taxes on time, all other things were solved by the businessmen themselves.

It can't be solved. Housekeeper Barry will deal with these things in the grain store or castle. However, housekeeper Barry still believes that one thing is better than one thing. Therefore, there are few opportunities to discuss things in the market. Housekeeper Barry will pay attention only when the tax is collected.

When he came to the grain store, the first thing Hill scholar asked Harry to do was to reduce the price of grain. There was a sign at the door of the grain store, which said the price of grain every day. However, since the crison family opened the grain store, the number on the sign has not decreased, and the number is higher and higher again.

I don't know how many civilians starved to death, but compared with their humble lives, the crimson family prefers glittering coins, but this time the food price is really going to fall, and Nord doesn't look down on the hard-earned money of civilians, especially the behavior of raising food prices will be damned by heaven.

"What was the price of grain in the previous grain store?"

After entering the grain store, scholar Hill looked around, especially the pattern of the store and the small granary behind it. After all, the grain store should also be managed by scholar hill. Nord thought that the grain store should be managed by the administrator, because it can regulate grain prices.

However, Nord does not prohibit other businessmen from selling food. As long as they do business seriously and pay taxes on time, Nord will not prohibit any business activities, even if they may have a conflict of interest with Nord's own stores. Nord believes that the market will make a reasonable choice.

Harry hesitated when he heard Hill's question about the price of grain. He still had a little conscience. He knew that the price of grain was very high before, so he was ashamed. However, he couldn't help answering Hill's question. Finally, Harry blushed and whispered:

"The previous grain price has reached 45 copper shells a catty."

Hill scholar took a panoramic view of Harry's reaction just now. At the same time, he was very surprised at the high food price in the grain store. Hill scholar knew that when the food price in Tami village was the highest, it was only 15 copper shells

If it is replaced by yam, now there are only five copper shells at most. Although the price of yam can not be compared with that of wheat, the price of grain stores is also sky high, which makes civilians how to live.
