Throne of the North.

Chapter 56 Beating
Irina followed to the Frozen Territory. Not only for the three monster eggs, but also to observe the Frozen Territory in person.

She had heard about what the Frozen Territory was like from Blade Rose's intelligence before, but as Ryan gave her surprises again and again, she began to feel that the information was not so accurate.

Looking at the frozen land that was almost turned upside down, Irina was speechless for a long time.

When the three monster eggs were taken away, Irina's opinion finally changed completely.

She thought of her purpose. She came here to check out the commercial value of the Frozen Territory and Baron Ryan. Because the Empire has begun to abandon the North Wind Province, the impact of this decision is all-encompassing.

For example, their chambers of commerce may reduce the number of visits to the North Wind Province in the future. Secondly, even if they come to the North Wind Province, they will only be temporary business trips, and they will not set up bases in various county towns.

At this time, how to make a choice becomes very important. Some chambers of commerce will directly give up some remote places to conduct trade. It is not worth wasting more costs for a few thousand or ten thousand gold coins.

For example, as she knew, several chambers of commerce in Lingdu City had decided to give up the trade profits of the entire Lingdu County. Even Hanshan County, which was close to the Xiangshan Plain, was more valuable to the chamber of commerce than Lingdu County.

In the future, teams from these chambers of commerce will not appear in Lingdu County. It is also because of these chambers of commerce that others are hesitant. After all, with fewer chambers of commerce, trade will be scarce, and Lingdu County may show signs of economic downturn, and they will also be affected at that time.

After Viscount Miles' family returned from North Wind City, they were also troubled by this matter. In the past few days, they have been meeting with people from the Chamber of Commerce who were heading north from the south, because these decisions could not have been made by the Chamber of Commerce itself, but by the great nobles behind the Chamber of Commerce.

If the Miles family wants to keep the Chamber of Commerce, they must impress the nobles behind the Chamber of Commerce.

Irina didn't know what the final outcome would be, but she felt that perhaps she could maintain some contact with the baron.

……

The Lordship system has not yet been known to the entire continent, and has only been circulated in the aristocratic circle until now, but Ryan still decided to take the first step and inform certain people about it.

He reached out and touched Viscountess Wittman's slightly bulging belly, and only withdrew his hand when the latter's ears turned red.

"I heard that many people in the territory got pregnant last winter. The population of the frozen land territory will increase in the future."

"Then management will become a problem. Although the old housekeeper is already training young people, it is still not enough."

"You should teach those maids more. At least teach them to count and understand the geographical environment."

Ryan said this, and Viscount Wittman had no choice but to obey. She was still living under someone else's roof and could not resist Ryan's orders at all.

At the end, Ryan finally asked about Baron Yazhe.

Of course, he is no longer a baron now.

"Father and several others have been gathering in the tavern recently. They plan to build a workshop in the territory to weave clothes. Many people in the territory don't have a second piece of linen to cover their bodies."

Ryan understood that these nobles from Exnel, even if they became commoners, could still live better than most people. Moreover, there were many slaves and commoners who once belonged to them in the territory. As well as the unique temperament they were born with, even though they were no longer nobles, they were still dignified and authoritative.

Together with the dozens or hundreds of gold coins hidden on their bodies, these could completely become the first original accumulation of these nobles who once possessed a lot of knowledge.

Similarly, Ryan also values ​​the authority and higher education knowledge of these people.

"Call them over." Ryan said casually, but it made Baron Yazhe and others who soon appeared in front of him very nervous.

Baron Yazhe looked at his daughter standing behind Ryan, as if he wanted to see some instructions from his woman's face. The reason they were nervous was because they were worried that Ryan would ask them where the money came from, and whether the reputation they had built in the territory recently had caused Ryan's displeasure.

It can only be said that this group of people adapted to their identities and lives after they were no longer nobles earlier than anyone else. When facing Ryan, they no longer had the arrogance they had before. If it weren't for the fact that Ryan, who was enjoying his drinks and had a good expression, they would have knelt down.

"Mr. Yazhe, and everyone else, I have a bad news and a good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Seven or eight people looked at each other, and finally their eyes were focused on Yazhe. It was because his daughter, Viscountess Wittman, had some face in front of Baron Ryan.

Yazhe smiled and bent down and said:

"My Lord, let's hear the bad news first."

"The bad news is that I promised you that if you offered your wealth, I could allow you to have a piece of land in my territory, build a manor, buy your own slaves, have a few guards to look after your house, and cultivate the land."

"This promise may be invalid."

After hearing Ryan's words, Yazhe and others changed their expressions in an instant, looked at Ryan with some fear, and one of them even knelt down directly.

"Lord Ryan, you made a promise at the beginning. As a noble noble, how can your promise be so cheap?"

Ryan did not answer, but quietly put down the wine glass, while the Viscountess next to him tactfully picked up the wine given by Irina and filled it up.

After hearing this, Yazhe's face turned pale. Without the original promise, how could they distance themselves from the others in the territory? Could it be that they, the former nobles, had to open up wasteland and dig the land like those peasants?
But he looked at his daughter standing beside him, calmed down, and asked:

"My Lord, I want to know, what is the good news?"

Ryan laughed.

"The good news is that your long-cherished dream of returning to noble status may come true."

After Ryan finished speaking, everyone looked at him in shock, and those who were originally pale widened their eyes at this moment.

During this time they had been in the territory, they had not done much. They had just taken out some gold coins and built themselves a stone courtyard, which was the closest to the foot of Rhinoceros Horn Mountain.

During the time when Ryan was away, this group of talents gradually gathered together and prepared to set up a workshop in the territory, intending to use their knowledge and means to make some profits.

To the extent that they also wanted to use this to gradually expand their prestige, so that when they built their own manors in the future, they would be able to become rich in a short period of time.

But all these things combined are not as good as the hope of becoming a noble again.

They once gave up everything in order to survive, so now they can give up all their wealth again in order to become nobles again.
