In the royal city, the first people Ryan saw were not the nobles of the kingdom.
Rather, they were representatives of the Chamber of Commerce from the empire.
"Master Baron, you have brought us Blade Rose Merchant Guild a huge wealth."
Irina stood in the dilapidated royal city, his eyes filled with fondness for this royal city that was about to be completely turned into ruins, because the Chamber of Commerce had obtained a large number of trade contracts in the past few days.
"Yes, it's such a huge wealth, so how much do you plan to share with me?"
Ryan said with a smile, making Irina's expression stiffen.
" All Blade Rose's wealth belongs to the Earl. I am just a steward and have no authority to deal with it."
"Then you should hurry up and ask the countess Legendary."
Ryan said:
"After all, contracts can sometimes disappear, especially within the Andara Kingdom, right? The new King here will regret the deal with you soon."
Irina looked at Ryan, she wanted to say whether King regretted it or you Baron Ryan wanted to regret it, but in the end she did not dare to say it.
Ryan has not returned to the empire yet, but the news about Baron Ryan within the empire has been overwhelming. Countless people believe that Baron Ryan is a new star in the empire. If it were not for the changes in the Noble Title system, Baron Ryan is likely to become a count noble like his father in the future.
Andara Kingdom's war is over, Baron Ryan is very dazzling.
"I think Lord Earl will not let you down Baron."
After Irina finished speaking, the surrounding chamber of commerce representatives also came together and began to talk about their real purpose.
"Lord Ryan, we Lantern Merchant Guild want to establish a settlement in the Andara Kingdom. We are a little worried about safety, so we would like to ask you to help us invite some nobles..."
The representatives of the Chamber of Commerce talked about their future plans for the Chamber of Commerce. With the establishment of Northwind Avenue, as the war in the Andara Kingdom subsided, and as Church of Dawn withdrew from the kingdom's land, these chambers of commerce swarmed in like sharks smelling blood, and they could see the huge benefits in it.
But no matter what they do, they can't avoid both.
One is Baron Ryan, the most powerful owner of Northwind Avenue, and the nobles on this land.
Especially the latter, because if they want to obtain the trade wealth here, they must not only care about the Andara Kingdom, but also Sera Kingdom, because to enter Andara Kingdom, they must pass through the Griffin Mountains, which is the land of the Sera Kingdom.
Fortunately, these two things can be the same thing, and Baron Ryan has a strong voice and actual power in both Sera Kingdom and Andara Kingdom.
"This matter is not that troublesome."
Ryan said, he told everyone that he has a very safe city, which used to be Wall of Dawn and is now Dawn City.
At this moment, Ryan felt that all the chamber of commerce representatives were shining. Those who responded more slowly realized something quickly, and looked at Ryan with eager eyes.
They are the chamber of commerce of the empire. If they enter the kingdom's land, they will inevitably need to hand over a large sum of wealth to King and the nobles, and even give them a share of profits.
But if it is on the land of Baron Ryan, this money can be saved. Although it is given to Baron Ryan, one noble will always need less than so many nobles.
And the most important thing is that in the land of Ryan, they can avoid a lot of troubles in the future, at least in a short period of time, they will not have many conflicts with the nobles.
"I can allow you some streets and land to be used as shops and warehouses, but don't think that you can avoid the kingdom's nobles. You have to give them what is due, but I can guarantee that this money will not be garbled, and the nobles will accept your sincerity."
"After all, you also want to gain wealth from the nobles' land, don't you?"
Wealth is fundamentally still in the hands of the nobles. They are the owners of the land and the power. The chambers of commerce are the moneybags. But if there is not a powerful noble behind these chambers of commerce, they are nothing.
Buying and selling also requires background. Why are there not many chambers of commerce? Because the vast land is filled with countless malicious intentions.
The nobles will become suspicious when they see the chamber of commerce passing by their territory, and the wanderers in Mountain Forest will also attack the chamber of commerce.
They are not actually safe unless protected by strong military force.
The representatives of the Chamber of Commerce have no objection to this. After all, they have long been accustomed to the fact that most of the wealth they earn belongs to the nobles, a small part belongs to the Chamber of Commerce, and the last part belongs to them, the members of the Chamber of Commerce.
"I can also help you open up business channels for the Sera Kingdom, but this is a bit troublesome. You should understand that Sera Kingdom is different from the Andara Kingdom. They are still supporters of the Church, but they are not so opposed to the empire."
"Hundreds of thousands of Dawn Believers among Dawn City also migrated to the territory of the Sera Kingdom. That Archbishop Adriana is a cleric who has received blessings from Lord of Dawn several times. She is the future Cardinal Archbishop. Her attitude towards the empire is not very good."
Ryan went beyond these representatives of the Chamber of Commerce. These matters cannot be ended in a day or two. These people from the Chamber of Commerce need to go back and discuss carefully, and finally the nobles behind them will give Ryan an answer before they can conclude a contract.
This is why Ryan said that the kingdom's current contract with the Chamber of Commerce can actually be reneged on, because time is too short, and the contract concluded between King and the Chamber of Commerce is not the contract concluded between King and the nobles behind the Chamber of Commerce.
In the contract between the nobles and the chamber of commerce, the initiative is in the hands of the nobles, not to mention a King.
Only the contract between nobles and nobles is one that King dare not easily renege on.
Ryan entered Royal Palace. It has to be said that extraordinary power is very helpful in building buildings. With the help of a demon Mages and knights as well as Alchemist, Royal Palace has become tidy again.
However, the gorgeous part cannot be solved by extraordinary people. What is needed is wealth and foundation.
In addition, it is only a superficial project at present, because most of the magic Mystic Runes engraved by the Royal Palace has been lost. After replenishing it, Royal Palace can be completely restored to its original state.
Standing on the steps of the Royal Palace, Ryan looked back at the huge royal city. He could see that in the direction of the Royal Palace leading to the southern city, the widest main street was already neat, and there were many houses on both sides.
It seems that the royal city is recovering, if you don't look at the ruins behind the houses on both sides of the street.
In the entire royal city, only Royal Palace and Royal Palace's streets leading to the south are clean and comfortable, because King has to accept the allegiance of the nobles here. As long as the nobles don't look back, the royal city will still be as majestic as it once was.
These days, all the nobles of the Andara Kingdom have come to the royal city. Everyone tacitly ignored the mess of the royal city and respectfully told King their misery and loyalty.
King Adams enjoyed these days very much. In order for that day to come as soon as possible, he began to agree to the requests of Canterlot and other great nobles.
When Ryan entered Royal Palace, he was naturally stared at by pairs of eyes. This imperial Baron brought an unimaginable deep impression to the Andara Kingdom.
Ryan responded to the nobles with a smile. He is an excellent noble.
"Count Kantra, it seems you got what you wanted."
Ryan naturally stood in the circle of the great nobles. Looking at the great nobles Count Kantra, the latter smiled at him, but there was also a little helplessness in the smile.
"King is more majestic than expected, perhaps with the help of Moses."
Count Kantra said this, if there is only Adams and King and the royal family, they nobles are sure to play around with this young King and pocket a lot of benefits.
But Count Merses has become a stumbling block that hinders them. The original plan has only been completed to the point of 30 to 40%.
Although it is still a huge benefit, these nobles are not very satisfied. Their appetite is wider than the earth.
"Count Merses?"
Ryan nodded and said:
"It seems that Merses Family of the Andara Kingdom is about to rise again."
"Hmph!"
A noble snorted coldly, a little dissatisfied. Ryan looked over and nodded slightly.
"Count Scott should be very reluctant to see such a result."
Back then, the Scott family and the Old King family destroyed the rebellious Merses Family army, and the two families were feuding.
Now that Count Merses is relying on the power of King to rise, I think Count Scott will be quite frustrated for a while.
"I have a solution here..."
Ryan's voice made the nobles here look over, all with shrewd eyes.
"You also know that the military fortresses of the North have been recovered, but the mountains to the north of the Andara Kingdom that are isolated from Northlands have been opened up by the power of Twilight Otherworldy God. The road created by the collapse of more than a dozen peaks can allow Northlands's Orcs to go south."
"In addition, there are still remnants of the Warthog Orcs ethnic group in the North. If Orcs cannot grow food, they will enter the kingdom's land and plunder it."
" No matter how powerful Count Merses and the royal family are, they don't have an army now, do they?"
Count Scott's eyes lit up.
"Baron Ryan, Scott family will remember your kindness."
Ryan smiled slightly. The more ways he could make friends with the nobles, the better. This would make his behavior in the kingdom more reasonable and gain support.
Turning around, Grand Duke Leta of the kingdom had already walked out of the palace. This was an authoritative grand duke who had just entered middle age. Andara Kingdom was now the second most powerful figure.
Through wars and chaos, although in the end Royal City War Witch Ghosts's performance is not satisfactory, but it cannot affect the fact that the Grand Duke has completely entered the Noble Circle family of the kingdom. In the Andara Kingdom, which is now full of waste, there are Orcs threats to the north, and Sera Kingdom peeking from the south. Grand Duke Leta is constantly being accepted by the kingdom.
Demand determines supply, and the strength of Grand Duke Leta is exactly what Andara Kingdom, who is in urgent need of combat effectiveness, needs now.
However, Ryan found that the Grand Duke's face was not particularly happy.
Grand Duke Leta naturally stands in the ranks of the great nobles. Baron Ryan and Grand Duke Leta also met face to face for the first time today.
"Your Majesty the Grand Duke."
Ryan performed noble etiquette, Grand Duke Leta nodded and said to Ryan:
"Lotti cannot return to live in the Royal Palace. This Royal Palace already completely belongs to King, and he does not allow Lottie to stay in the royal city, which will affect the authority of King."
Ryan is confused, who is Lottie?
Fortunately, the soft words of Count Kantra next to him made Ryan react, and his expression was not so embarrassing.
"Lotti Leta, the second Queen of the previous King, ordered the nobles before..."
Ryan suddenly realized that it was also the first time that he knew Queen Leta's name. Thinking of Grand Duke Leta's words, he asked with some guilt.
"Then what should Queen Leta do now?"
That woman now lives in Dawn City.
Grand Duke Leta looked at Ryan with cold and deep eyes.
"King doesn't want his father's Queen to threaten his status and power."
With this said, Ryan understands that Adams takes King's identity and authority too seriously. Everything that affected his dignity before will be liquidated. Queen Leta, who gave orders to the nobles in the name of Old King, was naturally targeted.
But...
Ryan's eyes gradually became a little cold.
This is also directed at oneself.
Adams, no, it should be Count Merses. He wants to enjoy the ignorant King Adams alone and achieve his own interests by controlling King.
Ryan and Grand Duke Leta, who can use Queen to influence the power of the kingdom, are both his enemies.
The surrounding nobles are also enemies that Count Merses does not want to see.
If the previous war was a struggle between Royal Authority and theocratic beliefs, then when the war ended, it instantly turned into a political struggle for power within the Andara Kingdom.
These nobles enter the state very quickly.
Ryan Only now do I realize that he still has too little political experience.
The kingdom has not yet completely stabilized, and politics have begun among the nobles.
Theoretically, Ryan can obtain all the benefits within the kingdom through the empire's military assistance to the kingdom, but now, in this Royal Palace, he has lost his influence and control over King.
Without Queen Leta, the relationship between him and King would only exist between Monarch and the nobles.
The nobles who fell silent were all thinking about their own gains, losses and impact in this matter, and King finally put on the noble robe in the complicated ceremony.
Adams held the scepter, put on the crown, stepped on the golden carpet and walked out from the depths of the palace. His expression was solemn and majestic, and his firm eyes seemed to inherit the ancient royal glory.
Count Merses stood beside him with shrewd eyes. He finally ushered in his glory. From today on, Merses Family will rise again.
He will inherit the glory of his ancestors.
"Long live Your Majesty."
The nobles saluted, and they did not need to kneel down, but after cheering, Grand Duke Leta walked out first, knelt on one knee in front of King, and punched Knight's Greatsword on the ground.
"Leta Family, I will be loyal to you and follow your will."
Adams finally couldn't suppress the expression on his face, and showed a proud smile.
"I accept your loyalty, my people."
The Grand Duke retreated, and Count Merses also knelt down on one knee and swore allegiance to King.
Then one after another ten other earls and nobles bowed on one knee to show their loyalty.
However, after this, what the Viscount and Barons need is to kiss the ground under King's feet, and they cannot just kneel down on one knee.
King smiled and accepted the loyalty of the nobles. Such a scene made him feel no fatigue at all, and could only make the Ryan and Imperial Nobles watching next to him bored.
Finally, night fell, and after King in the firelight accepted the loyalty of the last Baron, the ceremony ended completely.
"Dear Andara Your Majesty, congratulations on becoming the noble Monarch of this land. The emperor of the empire expresses his sincere joy for this. I think His Majesty the Emperor will give you a gift."
Finally it is Ryan's turn. He now represents the empire. Now both sides can be said to be completely on the same front as South land versus the Church.
"Oh? What kind of gift will Flor His Majesty the Emperor give me?"
Adams asked curiously, Ryan replied:
"His Majesty the Emperor will order Magic Academy to send a group of demons Mages to the Andara Kingdom to build a kingdom of the Magic Academy here to help the demons Mages on the Andara Kingdom land learn."
"At the same time, Commander and Legion Commander Farrell of Winged Gorge will also send an army of two thousand people to help you defend the military fortress in the north to prevent the evil Orcs from touching your land again."
Adams Surprise.
"Thank you Emperor Flor for your kindness."
After the ceremony and scene are over, it is time for the banquet. At the banquet, King will announce the future interests of the kingdom.
Simply put, it's a new slice of the pie.
At this banquet, Ryan also saw a large number of women for the first time.
Many of the ladies of the nobles and the noble ladies accompanying them winked at Ryan, but Ryan could only pretend they didn't see it.
He knew that the nobles wanted to bring their daughters to Queen, but looking at the Merses Family woman standing with Adams, Ryan knew that the nobles' plan was ruined.
Adams now trusts Count Merses very much. The future Queen should also be the woman of the Merses Family.
At the banquet, King announced the heroes in the kingdom's chaos. The first thing that could not be avoided was the help from the empire.
Baron Ryan is just Baron Ryan, but Baron Ryan represents the empire, and all the credit must be ranked behind the empire.
"In order to thank the noble emperor of the empire for his help, Andara Kingdom will grant Baron Ryan and the empire's Legion of Light Judgment wealth worth six hundred thousand Gold Coin."
"Thank you for your generosity."
After Ryan finished speaking, he said that he would use the wealth to purchase supplies on the kingdom's land in the future, so that the wealth would return to King's hands.
