Chapter 48

Count chebman rejected the plan to control Victor's collar! Dwight couldn't believe his ears. He didn't eat meat at the mouth. Is this still count chebman?

"In fact, no matter what we do in that territory, we can't really control it, because the power that really determines the ownership of that territory is outside the territory!" In Dwight's puzzled eyes, count chebman explained.

"Archduke Williams!?" Dwight quickly reacted to the fact that he was a great knight who stepped into the extraordinary field.

"Yes! I believe that as long as I nod my head, Archduke Williams will offer his hands to the territory. As for the little Baron, it will naturally be attacked by thieves again, but this time there will be no Knights of the York family to rescue him."

"Before that, any of our tricks are meaningless and will only expose our intentions!"

After listening to chebman's words, DeWitt suddenly realized that it was originally this way that power could determine power. He was a great Silver Knight, but he tried to use some tricks to plot a small Lord who was unable to protect himself. It was really ridiculous.

"My Lord, I am far inferior to you." Dwight said shamefully.

"Tell me, can we ask Archduke Williams for the territory?" Chebman wanted to test Dwight's political wisdom.

"Of course not!" Dwight said firmly that as a great knight, once he jumped out of the idea of flying camp dog Gou, he immediately had a vision that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.

"Archduke Williams has an advantage in the house of Lords and the Senate, and has the support of the church. He looks colorful and powerful, but his weakness is also very obvious, that is, his military strength is not enough!"

"If his highness Roland didn't force the York family too hard, I'm afraid he didn't even have the ability to break the wrist with the prince party, so he must win over other military nobles of the kingdom to join his camp, and our chebman family will naturally be valued by him."

"Unfortunately, his opponent is too powerful! Two Golden Knights, half the military strength of the kingdom! Hehe, how can we bet on him!"

"My Lord, I just have a question all the time. Since we are not optimistic about Archduke Williams, why don't we support Prince Edward?" Dwight asked chebman.

Although political speculation has great risks, it also has great benefits. Since we are not optimistic about the grand duke party, why not support the prince party and remain neutral? Dwight knew that his Lord had never been an indecisive man.

"Because I can't see!" Chebman said solemnly.

"In fact, the prince party is the weakest party. In addition to their great righteousness and strong financial resources, the only thing they can rely on is the support of his highness Roland!"

"Unfortunately, the support of his highness Roland cannot represent the support of the three Knights of the kingdom. In fact, the Marquis of goron, the military minister, and the three Knights just want to put his highness Roland on the throne!"

"Moreover, Duke Williams is not without means to turn the tables. It is said that he is planning a plan with the one in Guangming mountain. However, there is too little information now, and I don't know what it is?"

"Church?! what is Archduke doing? Doesn't he know it will offend all the Lords of the kingdom?" Dwight said angrily.

The current Pope of the church is ambitious and attempts to strengthen the influence of the church in the human world, which is contrary to the interests of all human Lords.

"After all, the church is the most powerful force in the human world. They will never focus only on the Gambis kingdom. The interests are too entangled, so we can only remain neutral first. This is the safest way."

Chebman rubbed his forehead. The treacherous political situation in the Kingdom gave him a headache. He couldn't help sighing: "if your highness Roland is willing to sit on the throne, I will fully support it!"

Princess Roland was a Golden Knight at the age of 23. She defeated the old Golden Knight Adrian at the age of 25. Her knight talent and military talent have convinced all the military nobles and high-level knights in the kingdom. It's not too much to say that she is the pride of heaven.

"What your excellency said is, it's just... The character of his highness Roland. It's really amazing..." Dwight said softly.

"Alas..." The two big Knights stared at each other, sighed and shook their heads at the same time.

"In fact, what I admire most is Mrs. Rosa, who turns her hands into clouds and covers her hands into rain. She is clearly the defeated party. Not only her strength is not lost, but also she has obtained the control of the whole human horse hill. The territory is several times larger than the original Duke. She has quietly made friends with her majesty, the Imperial Emperor who has stepped into the legendary field. Now no matter who is the Royal Highness on the throne, she stands still. This kind of wisdom and means is really amazing! " Chebman patted the table and said with emotion.

"Isn't the York family a core member of the grand duke party? How can she stand still if the prince party wins?" Dwight asked puzzled.

"The York family was forced under the Archduke by his highness Roland. In fact, it was the work of the York family that made the Archduke want to covet the throne. But if the York family could be forced under the Archduke, couldn't it be forced under the Imperial Emperor? You know, the York family didn't hold him back when the Imperial Emperor recovered the three eastern provinces." Chebman sneered.

"I see. It's a family with boar as its coat of arms. You can't force it. It's fierce when you force it." Dwight murmured.

"In that case, I'll give up the plan. It's just that the incompetent little Lord. What if he comes to trouble us? After all, we are mining there as free people, and he is now using iron and blood to clean up the free people in the territory." Dwight asked chebman for instructions.

"Incompetence? Hehe, DeWitt, you have been blinded by arrogance. Can't you see that Baron Victor has reached a tacit understanding with me?" Chebman chuckled and shook his head.

"When the old count was alive, he often said that there was no stupid Lord! I think so. Even if the Lord is a real idiot, his men will make him a qualified Lord!"

"What does it mean that a lord, who has a guard captain comparable to a knight, was shot through the thigh by a group of free people under his own hands, but did not stand still? It means that he already knows that the camp is ours. Therefore, his men are no longer close to the territory in the East. This is what he showed me that he has admitted that we actually control the place!"

"And the work point system that you think is useless, in my opinion, is simply wonderful!"

Chebmanton paused and asked Dwight, who was confused, "Dwight, what is the basis of our ruling territory?"

"It's a vassal!" Dwight thought for a moment and said.

Knights and castles are the core of the territory ruled by the Lord, and vassal is the foundation.

"Yes! It's a vassal! In order to ensure the vassal's loyalty to the Lord, we need to test the people for three generations. But Baron Victor doesn't have this condition because he was abandoned by the family and he has no foundation. So he came up with the work point system."

"The temptation of exchanging 1000 work points for one mu of land makes his collar people unable to refuse. In order to obtain work points, they will work hard for Baron Victor, and in order to ensure the final implementation of this system, the collar people will work hard to maintain the Baron's rule. This is loyalty, a loyalty connected by interests!"

"Look again, what did the poor Baron Victor pay in this process?" Chebman asked with burning eyes.

"He didn't give anything!"

Dwight was shocked to find that Victor had won the support of the collar people without paying anything. As for the land allocated to the collar people, the vassal would have been canonized.

"No! He paid for the future! Great! It's really great! He exchanged an empty future for the heartfelt support of the people! What a genius idea!" Chebman couldn't help standing up and pacing back and forth.

"Sir, can we do the same?" Dwight said with some excitement.

"Impossible, because we already have vassals, and vassals are exclusive!" Chebman shook his head.

Are you kidding? If you are allowed to receive civil work points in exchange for the status of vassal, what will those vassal who have experienced the test of three generations think? Human society is like this. It always wants to put others under its own ass.

"Unfortunately, Baron Victor is still too young and inexperienced. It seems to me that he tied his work points to copper sol. It will make him bankrupt. He didn't expect the people's enthusiasm for work points!"

Chebman thought that Victor would pay a lot of money and couldn't help feeling a little distressed. Although it wasn't his money, it was his nature. But he didn't know that Victor had solved the problem.

"However, the purple cane wine he invented may help him overcome this difficulty." Chebman smacked his mouth and said.

DeWitt made some purple cane wine through the eyeliner planted in the hill camp. After he had tasted it, he praised his unique sweet taste.

"Yes, who would have thought that purple cane, which is worthless in the eyes of others, would have such great value in the hands of Baron victor!" Dwight sighed that before he knew it, he no longer used the little Lord to call victor.

"The Wimbledon family is worthy of being a business aristocrat. They are born with a keen business sense. It's really enviable!"

Victor, and the old Marquis of Wimbledon, the former finance minister of the Kingdom, earned more wealth in his life than the chebman family accumulated for generations.

Ordinary nobles buy territory and titles in the horse hill at most like 100000 gold sols, but Sophia spent a whole 500000 gold sols. Although chebman knows that this is actually Sophia's political contribution, he still doesn't want it with envy.

That old goat, why didn't you marry my daughter!? Chebman thought angrily.

"So now the best plan is to maintain the status quo. We still mine the secret silver mine there, but don't let our people go to Victor to lead other places. This is a tacit understanding between the Lords."

On the one hand, any small move to that territory may disturb the York family and expose the secret of the secret silver mine. On the other hand, if you join the Archduke's camp in order to obtain that territory, you will not only bear unpredictable political risks, but also never swallow the secret silver vein alone. Only by maintaining the status quo can we obtain the maximum benefits. Chebman knows this very well. Therefore, he will not drag Victor back, and even help Victor control the territory.

"Yes, my Lord!"

"Also, those purple sugarcane can be cut down, and we can also make wine. Let our people stare at Baron victor and see if he has any ideas to get rich!" Chebman commanded.

Chebman said that DeWitt was blinded by arrogance and his mind was blinded by greed. He never thought that it was because of his covet of purple cane that he would bring a disaster to his territory in the future. Because in the eyes of Victor and his vassal, purple cane is far more valuable than Mithril.

You can dig my secret silver, but if you touch my purple sugarcane, you'll die!

"Unfortunately, Baron Victor's strength is still too weak. Caught between the grand duke party and the prince party, he will be crushed to pieces at any time!" Dwight shook his head with some regret. Although Baron Victor's talent amazed him, he had no ability to protect himself in front of absolute power.

DeWitt's words made count chebman's heart move. He had missed the old Marquis of Wimbledon. Should he miss the little Baron of Wimbledon? He had an intuition that Victor would become a more successful business aristocrat than the old Marquis.

"DeWitt, I want you to keep an eye on Baron victor. If one day he is really desperate, we will protect him. As long as he is willing to join our chebman family, I will marry Gillian to him!" Count chebman commanded Dwight solemnly.

Dwight's mind suddenly appeared an arrogant and domineering figure, which made him have to fight a cold war.
