What
George blinked, doubting his ears for a moment.
He looked at Earl Sanhe next to him, and found that the other party was also dazed for a moment. All the nobles looked similar to Guy. It was supposed to be explosive news, but no one in the hall responded.
This... was not planned!
Could it be that Count Delta has been persuaded in advance by Roland Wimbledon
He turned his eyes to the lord of Chishui City, and the answer he got was whether the count's reaction was not much calmer than theirs. He also widened his eyes and looked at the new king in disbelief. Obviously, when he arranged this dinner and invited everyone over, he did not know that the new king would do this.
For Delta, the trip to Lakeside Lodge was just a routine banquet.
Others also attended the banquet as usual.
This is just Roland's unilateral action!
Is he crazy
"I think many of you already know that the enfeoffment system has seriously hindered the flow and differentiation of people, thus restricting the development of productivity. Considering that Greycastle... and even the entire human race will fall into a major crisis, I have to make a decision. A difficult decision, and that is to reclaim all the land and power so that the people of Greycastle can act with the same will."
Personnel division? productive forces? Big crisis? George swallowed, what the hell is this guy talking about? Who would know these things!
However, the new king didn't seem to care about their thoughts, and continued to say, "From the current point of view, this decision is correct and necessary. Both the western and northern regions of Graycastle are successful examples. The disappearance did not cause the locality to lose order, but became more orderly. The unified decree, planning and deployment made the productivity gradually change from small workshop production of family inheritance to large factory production. At the same time, a lot of wealth was born, and those who actively participated in it It's an unquestionable fact that people who have made a lot of money have made a lot of money, and I think you can all see the results."
"I said this not to uproot the nobles, but to tell you that without fiefs and titles does not mean nothing. Under the new system, you can get more opportunities, just like a cake, if it only has a slap in the face It is so big that even if you swallow it all, it will only be enough to feed your stomach. But if you can make it the size of a table, even if you only eat a corner, you can hold on to your heart's content. Since the change is good for both parties, it is not a problem to promote it comprehensively. It's hard to understand... Many of you already know about this matter, right?"
There are indeed many nobles who are aware of your intentions, but I didn't expect you to be so urgent, and George's thoughts turned sharply. After the initial surprise passed, he gradually calmed down, and unexpectedly found that this unplanned accident was not a bad thing, but it was very beneficial to him!
With so many nobles present, it was almost impossible to reach an agreement. Instead, the contradiction was aroused in advance, which also saved him the effort to build momentum after winning the castle. After all, compared to convincing the lord of Chishui City to act again, this move is too direct, and it is easy to push those who would have fallen to Count Delta to him.
Sure enough, after the nobles came back to their senses, someone already said, "Your Majesty... I don't know much about the specific situation of the two northwest territories. Can you let me think about it for a few days before giving you an answer?"
"Yeah, this kind of thing is too important. I have several relatives, and I can't be the master alone."
"Your Majesty, can you guarantee that each of us will get more wealth?"
"If the reform fails and we don't have a fief, doesn't it mean that the original cake is lost?"
"Your policy is absolutely wise, but... I'm not a business person, Your Majesty!"
That's right, that's right, George secretly rejoiced in his heart. The more doubters, the better his foresight will be reflected, and if the new king can't make a final decision, he will only be caught in a dilemma!
I saw that Roland still maintained his original expression. After waiting for everyone to talk a lot, he raised his hand and suppressed the noisy discussion, "You seem to be mistaken a little, what I said is not a suggestion, but Is it the king's order for you to treat it as a commodity on the container and bargain here?" The peace in his tone faded a little, replaced by a icy chill, "I don't even need your promise, who are you? I will stand on the carriage of the times and go with me, and which will become the stubborn stones that block the wheels and be crushed into powder, I know clearly."
"How did you... know?" Count Delta asked in surprise.
The smile on Roland's face grew even brighter, "Because I can read people's hearts."
"What did you say, what?"
"Doubt is a normal reaction in the face of things beyond understanding," Roland turned and gestured to Edith, "Since that's the case, I'll show you a good example."
Beidi Pearl nodded and smiled at the nobles, "Your Majesty's ability is easy to prove, as long as you repeat what I said next, you will immediately understand that there is no lie to hide from Wimbledon's lineage. That's why I can become the ruler of Greycastle because I have this ability. But I have to say something first, if you don't repeat it, it can only be treated as a crushed stone."
Farce, it's a farce! George Narui sneered in his heart, there is no way to observe the mind, if the witch said this, it would be more credible. However, he still wears the Stone of God's Punishment in his arms, and he is not afraid of being bewitched by the power of the demon.
Although he really wanted to call on everyone to boycott this farce, he found that few nobles in the crowd objected. It can be seen from the expressions of the crowd that it is not how many people believe this statement, but they are holding a kind of test. No problem waiting for Edith to speak. I don't know if they want to see the new king's jokes, or if they don't want to offend each other completely.
Edith raised her mouth, "Please listen carefully. The first sentence is that I fully agree with His Majesty Roland's new policy and am willing to actively cooperate with the officials dispatched by Neverwinter."
The nobles followed and recited it indifferently, and some of them couldn't help but chuckle, apparently thinking it was quite funny.
"No one is telling the truth," Roland quickly answered, "Although it's a bit regrettable, it's normal. If it were me, it wouldn't be so easy to convince a king who stayed in the border area of Greycastle all year round. .please continue."
Wait... Something's not right, George frowned, will Wang really accept this calmly? He himself is the lord of Panshiling, and even though he knows that not every territorial citizen obeys him from the bottom of his heart, he still doesn't want to hear him say that. Shouldn't it be embarrassing and annoyed at times like this? Why is Roland Wimbleton so calm
"Although I don't understand what His Majesty wants to do in the second sentence, the entitlement is not something that is absolutely necessary. As long as those opportunities to expand wealth really exist, I am willing to give it a try." Edith nodded her lips with a look of expression. Feiyang said, "Come on, please make sure to make it clear word by word!"
