Chapter 485 The French Are Really Rich
"My lord, aren''t you a noble? Our vige will be your fief from now on!"
Vige Chief Moss was surprised when he heard this sentence, he blurted it out quickly, and asked in a low voice, without respect and etiquette.
As soon as the words came out, Moss regretted it endlessly. He was just a humble farmer, so what right did he have to ask the adults.
As a result, Thomas Befort saw it and asked his vigers. He immediately knelt down with a look of remorse.
"My lord, please forgive my rudeness!" A trembling voice sounded.
Thomas finally realized that the French aristocrats are so powerful that they can scare ordinary people to their knees.
However, the nobles in Ennd can only be respected and envied by ordinary people, but cannot be feared.
Becausemoners do not need to rely on blood to obtain rights, knowledge bes another thingparable to blood, and nobles are no longer out of reach!
Next, Thomas exined in detail the United Kingdom''s governance of the Normandy region.
For example, dozens of surrounding viges were merged into towns, under the leadership of the mayor, and then a dozen towns were merged into counties, under the leadership of the Governor of Normandy.
And, all nobles, like Ennd, will lose their governance, judicial, and taxation rights over the subjects, just like Ennd.
In this way, after exining in detail for more than half an hour, Thomas finally narrated most of the things, which surprised his future subordinate.
He just quietly looked at the vige head in a daze, with a smile on his face.
The reason why Thomas has such a good temper and patience is because in the next time, in order to sessfully carry out the decree of His Excellency the Governor, he must win over these local snakes, otherwise he will definitely be a puppet.
After a while, when the former tax collector Florent, who was watching the y, got a little impatient, the vige chief Moss finally realized it.
"Of course, of course, obeying the leadership of the adults is what I should do!" Moss nodded immediately, expressing his loyalty, Fengshuang''s face was full of excitement.
"As long as you give orders, my lord, we will definitely obey you. If anyone doesn''t listen, I will break his leg!"
"Very well, Vige Chief Moss, I am very satisfied with your loyalty!"
Mayor Thomas had a gratified smile on his young face, as if he was very satisfied with his performance.
"I''m here this time because I have something to trouble you, I hope you will cooperate a lot!" Thomas said, patting the shoulder of Vige Chief Moss.
"Of course, of course! This is what it should be!" Moss suddenly showed a smile that was not a smile, and agreed with a bit of tears.
"Okay, you lead the way ahead, let me go in and have a look!" Mayor Thomas said with great interest.
The smile on Moss'' face became even more forced, and his walking posture was a little trembling.
In this small vige, in this famine year, what else can the mayor entertain?
Thomas walked while describing his ns.
And Moss'' face is like a chameleon, changing randomly.
When he heard that the newly established town of Sneva was about to be established here, his face turned pale.
And when the young mayor said he became the deputy mayor, he became rosy again.
Then, a series of decrees came out of the mouth of the young mayor suddenly, making the face of the vige chief Moss change.
Mandatoryly require the vigers to conduct military training every winter; register households and register all vigers; prohibit the passage of rivre and francs in the Normandy area within half a year, and allow vigers to exchange at any time, only the British pound is allowed...
After this series of policies came out, although Moss didn''t know the effect, there was a word in his heart: The English were serious about the rule of Normandy.
After inspecting the poor vige, the young mayor sighed:
"It seems that if a new town center is to be established, it will cost a lot of money!"
"Moss, I just saw that there are not many stocks in the vige!"
"Yes, my lord,st year''s harvest was not good, and this year we are still short of food for several months!" Moss said with an ugly face.
"In this case, the vigers can go to the Bank of Ennd in Rouen to borrow grain. The interest will be waived for the first year, and they will be repaid on time in the next year!" Thomas said casually when he remembered the orders of the Governor and the rewards given to him by the Bank of Ennd.
"My lord, is this true?" Moss said in surprise.
"Of course, the Bank of Ennd belongs to the royal family. It is the most trustworthy and the service is good! In the future, your sry will also be drawn from the Bank of Ennd!"
"What? I still have a sry?"
"Of course, there is a reward for serving His Majesty the King!" Thomas said as it should.
Rouen, Normandy, in the newly established Governor''s Pce.
Since the situation in France has temporarily maintained a dangerous bnce, the English have seized the other half of Rouen from Count Gabriel, and all of Normandy has been brought under the rule of the United Kingdom.
The first thing the newly established Governor''s Mansion did was to divide thend of the Catholic nobles and the church into three, 40% for the king, and three levels for the military and the government.
Then, ording to the original arrangement, the bondholders were allowed to buy thend at half the price. As a result, the governor''s government''s finances became rich immediately.
"Your Excellency, at present, ording to the arrangement of the cab, the Normandy area is divided into 18 counties and several towns.
And using talents from the Cis and Brizgne regions, as well as talents sent from the United Kingdom, plus local defected nobles and families, a total of 460 people, after another month of training, they have been dispatched to Normandy All over, integration is currently in progress! "
In the governor''s office, Adam Carroll, the former governor of Cis and Baron Belloni, read a document seriously with a thick and maic voice.
He was appointed and dismissed by His Majesty the King as the Vice-Governor to assist His Excellency in governing the Normandy region.
His Excellency the governor has a stern face. There is no trace of a smile on his unusually handsome face, but when viewed from the side, there is a different kind of beauty.
"What a charming man!" Baron Belloni sighed inwardly, swallowed his saliva, and ended the report.
In view of the differences in the Normandy region, the new governor is Alexander Knight, and the military and government are in charge.
Moreover, in recognition of his meritorious service, His Majesty the King has canonized him as the Baron of Rouen, with a manor of tens of thousands of acres.
The Marquis of Edinburgh who captured Brittany only added a title of baron and thousands of acres ofnd.
"Your Excellency, please try your best to urge the Bank of Ennd to open a branch. Agriculture in Normandy was damaged a lotst year. I''m afraid it will cause riots!" His Excellency the Governor looked at Baron Belloni with his beautiful eyes, and ordered seriously.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Such a beautiful face made Baron Belloni a little distracted for a while, and he didn''t realize it until a whileter.
"The finances are currently rtively rich. Don''t be too tight about the appropriations of the town and county governments! Moreover, please allocate 5,000 pounds as a reward for the expeditionary force to boost morale!"
As the actual head of civil affairs, Baron Beroni thought for a moment before agreeing to the governor''s opinion.
Thanks to the ie from the sale ofnd, the government’s finances have reached a terrifying ￡100,000. This shows how rich the French church and nobles are!
The French are really rich!
