Regarding Frozen Earth Territory's economic development, Ryan has always had ideas, but the most critical point in this matter is circulation.
Productivity must interact and circulate to create an economy. Unless he, Ryan, can find a gold mine in the north, a large amount of gold coins and wealth can only be obtained through this method.
Regarding this step, Ryan also left a record in his little book, which is free trade.
Ryan believes that as long as free trade spreads throughout Zero Crossing Prefecture or even Northwind Province, Otherworld's crops and Frozen Earth Territory's tens of thousands of people can easily bring him a lot of wealth.
During the Iron Mountain County war at the end of last year, Ryan has opened up economic exchanges between Iron Mountain County and Zero Crossing Prefecture on a small scale. If it goes well, the lives of all Zero Crossing Prefecture noble lords will be better this year.
But only a few.
If you want more free trade, you need to open more trade routes through more wars. When the major chambers of commerce in South begin to reduce their investment in Northwind Province, the internal economic and trade of Northwind Province must become active.
This is Ryan's plan. Of course, the premise of everything is that Northwind Province must act according to his will.
Otherwise, Ryan would not be willing to plant trees for others and let others pick peaches.
"War, with the position of Baron, commanding the entire Northwind Province, can only be war."
Ryan thought so, turned around and came to the army camp under Rhino Horn Mountain.
With the development of the territory, the army has officially arrived directly below the north of Rhino Horn Mountain, which is the land between the frozen Northgar River and Rhino Horn Mountain. Looking up, you can see the large shadow covered by the protruding part of the majestic Rhino Horn Mountain.
The war is coming, and Ryan also needs to be trained. The power of Dragon Heart previously pushed all three of his Knight Breathing Techniques to the level of Silver Knight. Until now, he has not adapted to this powerful strength.
Moreover, despite the help of the Viscountess, Ryan still needs to expend part of his energy on knight training.
There is no habit of killing nobles in war, but... what if?
Viscount Dragoon If he were stronger, wouldn't he be able to survive?
"There are still too few people suitable for management."
Three days later, the new year started at Frozen Earth Territory and the new Zero Crossing Prefecture development meeting.
Ryan's statement made the nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture feel a little strange, so they came to Frozen Earth Territory as promised.
At least... they think they think so, and it is definitely not because they are worried about Northwind Province's war this year, and they want to know what Baron of the Frozen Earth, the war strategist, plans.
Ryan, who had just completed training, looked at the dozens of noble members who came to the Frozen Earth Territory conference hall, put on the noble nobles' gorgeous robes sent by the maid, and their serious voices rang in the ears of these nobles.
"Everyone, you all know how Northwind Province is called by the nobles in the south."
"Poor and cold are the labels given to us by the nobles of South."
"Even because of this situation, even our relatives in South keep a distance from us."
Ryan's words made these nobles frown unconsciously. Indeed, they were not welcome when they went to the south. This also caused the previous generation to still want to return to their homeland, but the nobles of their generation rarely thought about going to the south.
Go for what? Being looked down upon?
They would rather have the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. These nobles only want to dominate Northlands.
"Coldness is the price of War of the Deities Across Planes. Even Deities cannot expel the cold brought by the wind of Winter's Chill. This has nothing to do with us, but..."
Ryan Looking at these nobles, every noble was wearing gorgeous clothes, which cost a lot of money.
"Are Northlands nobles really poor?"
Ryan asked a question, causing these nobles to start thinking subconsciously.
"Of course we are not poor. Each of you here is not a noble who owns several mines. Such a huge wealth makes us rich. This is a land resource that South most nobles cannot match for hundreds of years."
"But in our hands, it is difficult for such a huge wealth to turn into a golden punk."
"We have huge land resources, but we can only watch the South nobles getting rich little by little. We are forced to be labeled as poor."
"Do you know why this is?"
"Obviously we have more resources, but we are less wealthy."
"Why?"
Baron Hatton asked subconsciously, and Ryan couldn't help but like it.
"Because of circulation, our land resources cannot be smoothly circulated to distant places. Even within us, there is no economic exchange between noble territories."
"The only ones we can rely on are those chambers of commerce, so only those chambers of commerce truly know that Northlands is never poor. Not only do we have the most abundant Iron Ore in the empire, but we also have a huge amount of Northlands that has never been developed."
"We used to hand over our resources to those chambers of commerce to earn a small amount of money, but none of us know how many gold coins those chambers of commerce made with our resources in the south and even further."
"But we can guess that the price of a Highland Warhorse in South is only a few dozen Gold Coin, but what about Northwind Province? Everyone should have bought it, right?"
Several times, even ten times the difference.
The nobles have good knowledge and education, and they can react to this price difference no matter how slow they are.
"Similarly, if Iron Ore of Northwind Province is shipped to South, what will be the price change?"
"The Iron Ore we mined over the past year, if placed in the hands of those chambers of commerce, should have a price difference of ten times, if not a hundred times. Otherwise, why are there still chambers of commerce going north for Northwind Province today who are unwilling to accept the wealth here and are trying to be exploited by Winged Gorge?"
"Everything is trade brought about by circulation. This is true for Northwind Province, and it is also true for us Zero Crossing Prefecture among various noble territories."
"This year, everyone must have eaten Iron Mountain County's game, right?"
Ryan's words finally made these nobles react.
Yes, during last year's war, Iron Mountain County was opened up to free trade by Ryan. As a result, their food was much better this year, and it was vaguely visible that the Gold Coin in their pockets was indeed better than at the beginning of last year.
There aren't many good things, but it's true. They thought they were managing things well.
Now hearing Ryan's words, it is obvious that this wealth comes from Iron Mountain County.
The nobles felt something strange in their hearts, but they couldn't tell what it was. In short, it was a fact that they had more money.
