Chapter 721： Maharaja's arrangement

Remember in one second【】

In his mansion, Rurik was fully rested, and when he regained consciousness, he had to sigh with emotion that such a good building had to replace the purpose of its existence.

He has already calculated that with the migration of the political center, Roseburg’s palace, the only three-story attic in the city, has the value as the local administrative center, and it is more suitable as the governor’s palace.

He listened to the servant's report, and understood the old guys' eagerness to hold the meeting.

Since the meeting is in a hurry, let's hold it as soon as possible.

"Ross Duma" is a big long house. When Rülik formally gave the order for a meeting, the talents of the entire Roseburg followed and almost filled the empty house.

The noise of their conversation made it look like a beehive or a scene of wild bees dancing. Everyone has their own minds, and the many words they are holding are eager to tell Wang Gong.

This meeting, Rurik, came well prepared. As early as in Novgorod, he used a quill pen to write out one arrangement after another on hard paper.

In the expectation of everyone, Rurik and High Priest Lumia stepped into the house lit by the oil lamps.

The appearance of the two turned the already noisy house into a pot of boiling water.

People cheered, stomped their feet, beat their chests or applauded, and made various noises to vent their excitement.

In such a hot scene, Rurik could only watch them with a smile for a while.

There are a lot of benches in the long slender room, so that if there is a lengthy meeting, the participants can do it leisurely, listening to the speaker's endless talk. There are two rows of benches on the left and right, all leaning against the wooden wall. There is a central podium inside, where Rurik will preach.

It is quite scientific to design a meeting place in this way. It is like a concert hall that makes the hall rectangular because of its excellent acoustics. The Ross Duma ordered by Rurik is a similar construction model in any Ross city. It is actually like a teacher, Rurik can preach on the stage very comfortably, and he can also walk off the stage and talk while walking on the crosswalk in the center.

Each of the Viking tribes has its own parliamentary chamber. The Russ parliamentary chamber named "Ros Dumas" is unique in structure and has all major cities, which is impossible for other tribes.

In the past, the Ross people could only dress themselves with gray, white and black three-color cloth and brown-grey leather. The love of beauty drove everyone to desire to have colorful clothes. In the past, conditions were not available, but now everyone is full of colorful clothes.

The technology of weaving floral fabrics by Slavs has spread. Participants generally wore colorful cloth robes and leather jackets, with a large number of colored glass beads hung on their bodies, and even the woolen caps on their heads were hung with glass beads and amber.

If such a person stood in a small Frankish city, he would be regarded by the locals as a big rich man, and even lured the local lord into malicious intentions.

Seeing that the people in his hometown are so wealthy, the pride easily rushes to Rurik's head. He can proudly say that Rose can have this day because of his own credit.

But he also saw that many of the old friends sitting there are always gorgeous and their decay cannot be concealed.

The heroes who are too old are getting old, and the heroes of the new era do not have plump plumes.

Ask yourself, it is obviously unwise to continuously launch foreign wars under such conditions.

This is the reason why Rurik decided to fight the Karelians again this year. His bottom line is that as long as the Karelians don’t take the initiative to attack the Principality’s northernmost stronghold in Lake Ladoga, the town of Bear Sacrifice, Ross will Choose conservative defense.

He stood in front of everyone. It was a relatively warm climate, but now the gathering of dozens of people in the house has caused the room to heat up quickly. He took off his coat and showed him in the image of only a long gown.

After half a year, the prince is still the man with the flowing golden ponytail. The fourteen-year-old prince obviously has muscled arms, but the figure is still thin. The beard on his face is as vigorous as his father's. If left unattended, it will quickly turn into a golden cheek, like the legendary beast "Rhine" only found in the far south.

Rurik stood here and allowed them to judge their heads. He held his head up and looked arrogant. It was this posture that everyone thought he was an extremely confident prince. He is so confident that he will have a perfect result if he wants to come to the immigration project.

When the atmosphere finally settled down, Rurik unhurriedly opened the cloth bag and took out a dozen papers with a lot of writing inside.

He can preach out of the text, but he is afraid of verbal omissions. It is obviously the best choice to write down important articles and read them out.

The preaching manuscript was placed directly at the desk, and he was also sitting on a square stool, with his arms resting on the desk in a relaxed manner, as if the teacher was facing his students.

"Old friends in my hometown, please be quiet. How to celebrate joyfully. Until the night, I will invite you to drink ale, eat barbecue and noodles. Now you must listen to my preaching on immigration work. Because this is related to yours. future!"

He was afraid that his words were not serious enough, so he deliberately repeated it three times. The so-called announcement today is not only about the future of the principality, but also related to the future of everyone present.

When Rurik began to preach, everyone had indeed straightened their backs and listened respectfully. Hearing the key part was either joy or nervousness, there was even a hint of regret.

On the stage, he easily observed everyone's emotions, and their expressions were probably within his own estimation.

Is Rose a free country? Yes, it is not.

Anyone who joins Roth can actually choose to leave, but the situation is completely other ordinary people of the Viking department, and after learning the real life state of the Roth people, they want to come in.

^0^Remember in one second【】

Get in. No one will take the initiative to abandon the current life, unless they have made a mistake and be expelled.

Since they are in Ross’s community life, anyone must abide by Ross’s rules of life.

Of course, Ross has a hierarchical system. The royal family and the elite families in the past were the upper core of the principality in the tribal era.

Nowadays, the population of Ross has expanded rapidly, but all the old Ross people who came from the Ross tribe are naturally the buddies arranged by Rurik.

The elderly women basically arranged the work of a tailor, doing rough processing of cloth and leather. There are also elderly women who have worked in soap processing. The older men used to be tribal warriors. They were supposed to die silently at home when they were old, or they stubbornly came out to offer sacrifices to the sea. Now Rülik hires them to be official fishermen, granary gatekeepers, and weapons repairers.

As for the children of the roots of Ross, their food is entirely provided by Rurik.

There are a large number of women who are married into the middle-aged of Roses. They actually don’t need much experience to raise children. They also take on the tasks of fishing, logging, mining and many other men. Salary.

This is the case in the inner circle of the Rus Principality. Women, children, old and young are all managed by a system. Lurik can guarantee that they will not die from starvation and freezing, but it is a luxury to want to suddenly become rich. Using taxation, lowering salaries and other means, Lurik can make a lot of wealth. The money is used to build ships, buildings, and especially food for more than 3,000 children.

The baby boom that Rurik dreamed of is still going on. It will give the Principality a strong future, and now these three thousand gluttonous mouths also make the finances quite strained. The number of children will only increase further, not to mention their own people, and to say that they are not just an April bull. Once life becomes unprecedentedly stable and prosperous and hopeful, it is inevitable to have a hard time giving birth.

After all, Roseburg is a narrow place, but for various reasons, the already overcrowded territory has become more crowded.

As the prince is here desperately squeezing those who defected, it will not be a good thing in the long run!

There are people from all the Confederate Confederate tribes who have moved in with their families. Although they are not many in number, they are not inferior to the Ross natives in their enthusiasm for childbirth. Only the children of Ros’s own people who have been defined as “adopted persons” by Rurik can get free meals, and the people of this group also get a stable source of income. This is a privilege that late entrants cannot enjoy.

In Rurik’s view, there are no real slaves in the principality, and he does not allow this. It is not because of his kindness and selfishness, but because of Ross’ current economic situation. Slave keeping is a waste of the economy, and so is allowing the powerful to keep slaves. Digging the corner of the prince’s power.

But there are actually "slaves" in the principality.

All the Vikings who came in from outside, the conquered Finns, and the conquered Eastern Ilmenslavs were all being economically exploited by the Ross Headquarters, a group that currently has a population of less than 10,000. Since the Principality is now rising at a speed like an arrow from the string, wealth is being created at a high speed, and the life of the exploited is actually better than in the past, and the internal contradictions can be ignored.

Therefore, the residents of Ross Headquarters have reason to leave Roseburg, where they have lived for nearly eighty years, to settle in the Wonderful East.

The preaching made by Rurik is to make arrangements for the various groups and major affairs that exist in Roseburg.

First: Harrodsson will continue to serve as the governor of Roseburg, and his mediocre eldest son has no right to succeed in the future. The next governor is appointed the young Kanuf. Rurik intends to cultivate this cub who is basically the same age as him. In a few years, this boy will also have a bear-like physique. By then, Haroldoson will be old and dead, and the post of governor is still in the hands of someone he trusts. Leurik also emphasized that only the prince himself has the right to appoint the governorship. Anyone who claims to be a governor is a traitor to the duchy. When the Great Immigration opened, the Government House was moved to the old palace.

Second: The Great Temple will be relocated, and all the statues will be moved to Fort Shilla at the mouth of the Neva River. Ross will use stone and hardwood to build larger temples, and will also choose opportunities to cast larger statues. In the temple, hundreds of people can gather to kneel and pray, and there should be a square outside the temple, which can be used to build a huge timber tower for worship.

Third: All the ordinary residents of Ross Headquarters were relocated, bringing their belongings and children to the east, reuniting with their husbands, and enjoying their own farmland. All widows who have deceased husbands also have the right to share their land in the name of their deceased husband. Any man over the age of fifteen is eligible to receive a piece of land at the cost of having to leave his original family. There is only one destination for this group of immigrants, near Novgorod on the warm Lake Ilmen.

Fourth: The people of Ross who are engaged in leather processing business have the right to get a small piece of arable land, but they must immigrate to Shilla Fort and build a new leather processing workshop in the city. All guest craftsmen who are engaged in related industries and new Ross leathersmiths who have moved in later can choose to immigrate to Fort Shilla. The Lurik principle suggests that everyone should immigrate.

Fifth: The blacksmiths’ union, especially the Cravason family, cannot emigrate to the East, because there are no mountains in the Eastern world. There is a shortage of stones and no ore can be found. The future of Roseburg is to become a northern iron producer in the Duchy of Ross, and it will use local iron and copper mines to continuously produce ironware. As a result, the supporting pottery workshops and charcoal burning workshops will not be relocated.

Sixth: The shipbuilding group represented by the Hotra family cannot abandon the shipbuilding workshops in Roseburg, but must send young people to build two shipbuilding branches in Shilla Fort and inland lake-side Novgorod.

Seventh: As the servants of the prince, the deer breeders continue to breed reindeer in Roseburg and pay deer skins to the governor and the prince on a regular basis every year

For taxation, when there is a levy order, someone will be sent to fight for the prince.

Eighth: The big businessman Gould cannot emigrate to the East with his family. The Gould family is in charge of all trade with the West in the Principality, and is also the most important distributor of Ross ironware, glassware, wine, and northern leather. The white fox Snoreva inherited the main body of the big merchant family and was mainly engaged in trade with Sweden. The second son, Blue Fox, started trading with Denmark and looked forward to a bright future.

These eight arrangements are the most important, and Rurik made arrangements for many craftsmen, as well as some other arrangements.

These arrangements were generally agreed by everyone, and it was obvious that Gould had raised his mouth.

Gould is indeed old, and he even felt that he was dead soon, so he publicly questioned the close friend Liuliu in Rothdumari: "Why can't my family run the Eastern trade? This is not appropriate!"

Naturally, Rurik used that rhetoric to prevaricate. Iron trafficking is an important means of making money in the Duchy of Roth. The Gould family, who was ordered to monopolize this, made many small merchants particularly jealous. After all, this Gould was also a small merchant back then, but It is the prince who has led to his current status.

"I still can't figure it out. I'm dying of old age. I still have many sons. They are qualified to go to the East!"

Rurik made a rare face sinking: "Gould I will tell you clearly! Don't be too greedy! This is my order, you can't ask for too much!"

Gould was really suppressed, he was not actually afraid of Rurik personally, but the military and political power **** with Rurik. He can only comfort himself, because this large immigration project is almost a huge benefit to the people of Ross, and his essence is a guest. Even if he enters the group early and is accepted, he is still a "new Ross person" in essence. .

If only this time was thought of, Gould would not deserve to be an old fox. He actually speculated that the root cause was that woman-Asraki Haraldot.

Because Rose cannot have a single big businessman, multiple business families need to be controlled by the royal family.

Gould chose to shut up. He would lose a large part of the leather trade income due to the large immigration project, and the Asraki family would make money from the leather trade and other industries because of the relatives of the prince. He was really worried for his eldest son, the white fox, but considering his advanced age, the children's career depends on them! At least the family can still control the privilege of iron trade. After all, the prince clearly described that the East is iron-free, and the commercial families of the East naturally cannot rely on this to make money.

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
