Chapter 371: Getting Married? (Part 2)
Chapter 371: Marriage? (Part 2)
The gifts given by the three nobles were very large. Don’t underestimate the two hundred stallions, which was equivalent to giving Rex tens of thousands of thoroughbred horses.
Safiros was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted. Let the nobles continue to give supplies to Rex, but there was no one left. It didn't matter if Rex defeated Yunliu. Anyway, the Yunliu Empire was a country composed of a group of bastards.
Others were not clear about the situation of Yunliu Empire, but Safiros specially sent someone to lurk in, and he had his inner support in the palace. He knew very well the absurdity of Emperor Yunliu that the luxury and despair of the Yunliu nobles made him, Yunliu, feel that it was a shame for human beings.
Those who originally planned to sacrifice Rex, now it seems that it is better to sacrifice with another method.
There is a reason why the nobles enthusiastically supported the Kushui County. Everyone's interests are all in Galauran. Rex will definitely not go west again. He asked her to fight Yunliu people. You can pay for it, just give up Galauran.
After all, Rex's identity is sensitive, so everyone cannot blatantly attack Rex's land. Last time Antos suffered a great loss and was scolded by the emperor. The House of Commons did not speak for him. Everyone understood that even if Rex was not favored, he would have the same surname as Sephiros.
If you can do something behind the scenes and attack Rex directly, that is disrespectful to the royal family.
Hundreds of nobles of all sizes were Qin Yin’s most wealthy and powerful people. Even if each person paid 100,000 gold coins, he could support tens of millions of gold coins. What’s more, what they sent were not gold coins, but shortage of military supplies.
These things are hard to buy in large quantities in Qin Yin, and Sephiros' support this time is real. If anyone else, at most, they would give Rex a large batch of gold coins.
The Holy Rock City was busy raising gifts for Rex, Yunliu was busy increasing troops, but the Skochenya Empire was discussing how to face this political marriage.
The emperor of the Skochenya Empire also brought his close ministers.
Last time, Skochenya's emperor His Majesty Donni made a big profit in the three empires. This time, it was related to Kushui County and the Kingdom of Metatrim. What he had to consider was whether to show friendship or continue to be neutral.
The ministers close to His Majesty Donnie are basically all from military generals. He attracted the ministers and directly raised his own questions.
"Everyone, what posture should we keep in marriage between the Kushui County and the Metatritling Kingdom?" His Majesty Donnie stroked his beard with his fingers and observed his ministers with his tiny eyes.
"Your Majesty, no matter they are, we are from mercenaries, of course, with a neutral attitude. The people of Tanggulas still want to pull us into war, and we refuse even if we are different?"
"That is, your Majesty, no matter what the conflict between them is, we do our own things, who can dare to make trouble? Since they are in marriage, they will just give a similar gift according to the etiquette between the countries."
"But, it's not good to be too stingy!" Donnie said with a smile.
The ministers looked at each other, and suddenly a guy had an idea and understood Donnie's thoughts. He said with a flattering smile: "Your Majesty, Kushui County is now short of soldiers. We will ask a mercenary group of ten thousand people to congratulate him in the name of giving gifts. Then Rex will definitely hire this mercenary group as a way, and we don't have to spend more money to make her appreciate it."
"Hahaha!" His Majesty Donnie, who had already advanced to the Golden Sword Saint, smiled vulgarly like a hawker in the city. He was very satisfied with his close minister, who could come up with such a good idea.
Anyway, according to the law of the empire, this country can mobilize a formal large mercenary group, which only requires a small amount of money. This mercenary group will not complain, but it is also for the purpose of taking business when they go to Kushui County. Everyone knows it. The important thing is that this mercenary group is going to fight against Yunliu people, not fighting the Tanggulas people, and the Tanggulas Empire that is so close is not angry.
He won three goals at one go. No matter how light his gift is, Rex would not say a sarcastic word. He sent a large mercenary group.
"Very good, but, which mercenary group should I send?"
"Red Tiger Mercenary Group, their magicians have also been abducted by the Metatrilians." A minister said gloatingly.
"No, if this happens, Rex won't appreciate it." Donnie flatly refused.
Moreover, although the Red Tiger Mercenary Group is registered in Phoenix, it is actually a local corps of the Principal of Rhine. It has to be known to the Lord Rhine, and it is considered a personal favor. With Donnie's stinginess, this kind of favor will never be taken.
"Your Majesty, hasn't the Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group recruited two new level 8 mages? You have advanced to the level 8 mercenary group and let them go. Anyway, these guys are unruly. If they stay in the empire, they will have to garrison their city. I'm so troublesome."
"Well, that's right." His Majesty Donnie applauded. Skochenya's law, if a mercenary group advanced to level seven, they had the right to manage a large city and as a garrison, they could collect various taxes.
The Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group was originally a sixth-level mercenary group, but it has always been difficult to manage. The leader is stubborn and has a bad relationship with local nobles. Now that he has advanced to level 8, Downey will definitely not be willing to give him a certain city. He throws it out directly, and may die in battle at Rex.
"Your Majesty, if the Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group leaves, their base..."
"Don't move for the time being. After all, there are two level 8 magicians who are their people. If you annoy the magicians, it will be hard for you." Donnie was finally awake and did not think about depriving the original resident of the Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group.
His Majesty Donnie, who was indifferent, continued to discuss the details with the ministers, what gifts were given, how to get the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group out of the way, etc. The most lively Skochenya Empire was of course the Kingdom of Metatlin.
Upon receiving the news that Salin succeeded, Shika immediately issued the first national order of the kingdom as the Regent, which involved everyone above and below. The civilians received one year of tax exemption, and the farmers received three and a half years of tax. The nobles all smiled and they got more.
Not to mention the confidant nobles of Salin in Metathrin, each of the Phoenix nobles subdued by Salin has gained leadership in their own city. Although it is not a fiefdom, it has indefinite management power. These nobles, temporarily used as municipal officials, can withhold 20% of the taxes.
The Phoenix nobles were not happy about this. They were happy that Salin and Rex got married, so their status would be different. Rex was named Grucos and was the daughter of the old emperor. These Phoenix people recognized Rex the most. Salin and Rex were the alliance with Rex at that time, which was also the main reason why they defected to him.
Now that Salin suddenly wants to marry Rex again, these Phoenix nobles completely regard the Metattering Kingdom as their country. Salin will definitely gradually distribute the territory and other areas, which is something that does not require judgment.
After the spread of the Metattering Kingdom, the southern part of Phoenix was affected. In areas beyond the control of the Qinyin people, millions of people flocked to the Metattering Kingdom, and some nobles who were still hesitating also joined in.
The population of the Metatlin Kingdom exceeded 10 million in one fell swoop, and finally it looked like a country.
With tens of millions of people, the pressure on recruitment has been much smaller, and Salin's kingdom can finally develop steadily.
The Kingdom of Metatlin was in a festive atmosphere. In the temple, Shika was lying in Salin's room, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Neris stood beside him carefully, without saying a word.
"Nelise, do you think Salin will change his mind?" Sika asked the little demon.
"Sister Shika, the master will definitely not change his mind. I know how you feel."
"What do you, a demon, know!"
Neris thought to herself, then you asked me. But she didn't say that, but said: "Rex also likes his master and will not make things difficult for him. She is a magician and wants something different from you."
"Yes, she is a magician, so I hope that the person Salin married was her." Shika's eyes lit up, and then they became a little dim.
"Sister Sika, it doesn't matter whether you are a magician or not. The master likes you because you are the master's most precious lover." Neris recalled the descriptions of love in human books and said to Sika.
"precious?"
"Of course, it's the most precious thing. When the master met me, you were by my side. I like you too, so if Rex dares to bully you, I will eat her."
"Haha." Xika laughed. Although Neris was not telling the truth, she probably dared to do this.
"Sister Shika, you just feel uncomfortable. Didn't you keep instigating him before the master made a decision? When the master left, he asked you to be the Regent, for why?"
"Why did you say?"
"This country is needed by the master's teacher. Under the temple, the plane teleportation array is prepared. From now on, you will be a family with the master's teacher."
Shika was stunned, knowing that the demon's description was inaccurate, but Salin must have thought so.
What Salin did must be extremely dangerous. He left the kingdom to himself, not to let himself take care of the land, but to let his teacher take care of him!
After figuring this out, Shika rubbed her nose, wiped away the inexplicable liquid, and said, "Sarin, this guy, is quite conscientious. Nelise, what did he tell you when he left?"
"You're just asking me to protect you. If I can't do it well, my master will not want me in the future." Nelise said aggrievedly.
"Protect me? Haha, we Caucasian priests, even if we have children, have the same combat power..." Shika said this, suddenly stopped her mouth and blushed a little. She remembered that when she was with Salin, this little demon always had to peep nearby.
"Sister Sika, the master's child, is very important. Don't touch him. Are you afraid of the darkness?" Nelise asked a strange question.
