Lord of the North

Chapter 70: fief

  Dorn and others lined up to the high platform, standing behind Jason, waiting for the moment of their honor.

   "Today is your glorious day, the day you deserve your rewards." Jason turned to look at them and said seriously.

   Although he looks like a teenager, no one will despise him.

   "Thank you!" He said, looking at the seventeen people closely.

   "This is for the seventeen of you, and it is for the thirty-three people buried in the ice sheet."

   This is indeed what Jason wants to tell them. In the case of insufficient preparation, a group of fifty people left their hometown under their orders and entered that area of ​​uncertain future.

   In the end, only these seventeen people will come, thank them for being worthy of this sentence.

   "This is what we should do, sir!" With tears in his eyes, Donne thought of his brother who had died tragically.

   "This is the medal I will award to you, with your names engraved on the back. You are heroes with iron teeth collars."

   Jason reached out and took a box, then opened it and read out the name behind the medal and the last name Jason gave them.

   "Dorn Strawman!"

   "Yes!" Dorn took a step forward, took the box respectfully with both hands, and then Jason helped him put it on his chest.

   "Darren Charles!"

"Yes!"

   "Zatya Danny!"

"Yes!"

  ……

   Without seeing a name, a hunter stepped forward, with wounds on their faces, even someone with a cane.

  Because it was too cold on the ice sheet, some wounds were left crippled before they could be treated, but it was a blessing in misfortune to be able to save their lives.

   Soon the medals of 17 people were issued, and there were 33 boxes left on the table, which belonged to those who had sacrificed.

   "These belong to those who stayed on the ice sheet. They died generously for their teammates. Their spirit will always shine on our soldiers!"

   Jason looked at these boxes and said lowly.

   "Afterwards, these medals will be received by their family members on their behalf, and the castle will also support their family members in the future, so that they can have no worries in the happy land."

   Beidi people believe that people will not disappear after death, they will go to a place called Happy Land, where they can watch their relatives who are still alive.

   There is no struggle, no sadness, but ruthless happiness and joy.

   Then Jason started to say the names of these people. No one in the field was speaking, and they were all there listening quietly, even those who could not hear it at the farthest distance were keeping quiet.

   was there with her ears erected, hoping that she might also hear something.

   There are only a few weepings occasionally. Those are the family members of these sacrifice hunters. Although they have all received honors that they may not get in their lives, their relatives will never come back.

  Time flies quickly, and Jason finished all the medals in a short while, and he felt uncomfortable looking at the sobbing residents holding the medals.

   But a qualified person must harden his heart and cannot be ruthless, but at least he must be hard-hearted. This road is destined to be full of blood.

   may be the enemy's, it may be his own, it may be his friend's, or even his own.

   Any indecision, sentimentality, will be an obstacle to Jason's journey on this road, so he has to adapt to it all.

   "In addition, this expedition brought back not only a map of that land, but also valuable information. Mr. Donne, who was the leader, contributed a lot."

   Finally, Jason spoke again. In the eyes of civilians, this was the real highlight.

"I decided to grant him the knighthood of knights. He will own a village as a beneficiary!" He announced loudly that this is the first noble in the Ironfang Nation. Dorn will also officially become Jason's confidant, which is of great significance. .

   But his title is not a hereditary title, which means that he will become an emerging noble under the approval of Jason, but his next generation can no longer claim to be noble.

   This kind of title is only a bit better than the name of honor.

   After a pause, Jason took a roll of parchment from Lancelot, with a piece of gold and red string tied on it. This is Don's appointment book.

   With this book of appointment issued by Jason, he is the truly recognized Jazz. From then on, he is responsible for all his decisions.

   "I decided to make Yarrow Village the beloved Sir Dorn. I hope that the villagers of Yarrow Village can accept your Sir Dorn."

   "It's actually Yaluo Village."

   "Yes, I didn't expect that the adults would give this village to Sir Donne as a beneficiary."

   "So what? Yaluo Village is no longer the Yaluo Village decades ago, and now it is no different from the surrounding villages!"

   "But they still live very well with the remnants of that iron ore."

   "Humph, this mine has been abandoned for so many years, how many remnants can there be?"

   "Yes, you have to know that without the consent of the lord, mining privately is a big crime!"

   "Hey! Keep your voice down, isn't everyone forced by life?"

   "Don't say anything! The little ore left in there is only enough for them to eat and wear. Is it possible that people are not allowed to find some ore for emergency when the harvest is not good?"

   "But next year's life should be much better."

   "Yeah, yeah, that **** tax rate has finally been lowered."

  ……

After hearing Jason’s decision, there was another buzzing sound in the square. This Yaluo village is very famous on the iron tooth collar, mainly because some ordinary townspeople are jealous. They are close to the mine and can often steal. Just go in for mining.

Although the iron tooth iron ore has been abandoned for a long time, it does not mean that there is no ore inside, but the few remaining mines are no longer suitable for large-scale mining with a large amount of manpower and material resources. Otherwise, the gains are not worth the loss, so this was abandoned by the kingdom .

  It is also very dangerous to enter the mine without protective measures when mining.

   Some residents around the mine will sneak into it to try their luck in an era when the harvest is not good, to see if they can find some ore, and if they sell it, they can help subsidize their families.

   If you are lucky, you will find a little leftover mine in a corner. If you carry it out and buy it, you can exchange more than a dozen copper coins, which is enough for your family to spend a few days.

   But few people are willing to risk being caught to steal mines, unless they are really pressed by the embarrassment of life.

   But fortunately, Sir Oki is not interested in that little residual mine, otherwise they would not even have this way to survive.

   And Jason chose this village as Donne’s beloved because the village’s annual income is pretty good, not far from the town~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It takes less than half a day to ride on horseback, which is very suitable for Donne’s situation.

   In addition, the population of this village is quite large. The size of more than two hundred people is also suitable for Donne to recruit his own private guard here.

   "Thank you, sir!" Dorn knelt on one knee with excitement, his voice trembling.

   Although the reputation of aristocrats in the north is not very good, becoming an aristocrat is something that every commoner can't imagine. Don't like this can already be said to be a glorious ancestor.

Although he is not a hereditary aristocracy, he only collects taxes and does not have the right to rule. But as long as his next generation is not too bad and contributes to Jason's territory, it is not impossible to succeed him as the next aristocrat. .

   "You are already an aristocratic gentleman, you don't need to kneel on one knee in the future." Jason said to him with a smile.

   "Yes, my lord." Donn stood up, looking a little at a loss.

   A big man in his forties would feel embarrassed because he became a nobleman, which made Jason a little bit jealous.

   "My lord, what should I do when I become a nobleman?" He blushed for a while before he blushed.

   "Go to your beneficiary first and get acquainted with your fellow citizens. You can go back to live in the town and serve as an official in the town government."

"Of course you can also build your mansion in Yarrow Village, and when I have a war, take your guard to join my army." Jason looked at him and said, it depends on Donne's choice. .

   "I hope I can stay in the town." Dorn thought for a moment. The town is not far from his beneficiary. If there is anything to do, I can go back soon.

   Jason nodded when he heard the words, and did not speak. This is his own decision. He has his own plan, so he can't interfere.
