Live Broadcast: I Am a Lord In Another World

Chapter 262

   In the hall, after Richard's canonization ceremony, the king also canonized several other nobles.

   However, the limelight of those nobles was completely robbed by Richard.

When    canonized them, few nobles watched them at all.

   The eyes of the nobles still stayed on Richard's body one by one.

  Some nobles are thinking about waiting for a while to get close to Richard!

   The promising Richard has already made many nobles make up their minds to ingratiate themselves.

   In addition, the dazzling array of goods shipped in Richard's motorcade also made the nobles feel very excited. These nobles all wanted to buy with Richard.

   Especially those aristocrats who have been showing off for a long time by the aristocrats who already possessed porcelain and glasses, and are helpless to fight back.

   Soon, the canonization ceremony of all the newly promoted nobles is over.

   Immediately afterwards, entered another link.

   That is the part of giving gifts to the king.

   At the end of the year, the nobles had an audience with the king.

   That is the nobles need to pay tribute to the king.

   Nobles have a lot of autonomy in their own territories.

   Except for conscription, the king basically cannot interfere with the affairs of the nobility.

   Of course, the king actually has one more right.

  That is the right of amnesty.

   means that someone committed a crime in a noble territory and was locked up by that nobleman. If the king feels that the other party is wronged, he can amnesty.

   But the king generally does not exercise this right.

  Because it is easy to offend people, and if the guy who is amnesty does commit a crime, the reputation of the king will also be affected.

  Although they have autonomy, the nobles also pay a certain amount of property to the king every year.

   The amount of tribute is related to the title of this nobleman.

   Generally speaking, a baron who pays 5-10 gold coins per year is enough.

   is equivalent to a few percent of one's annual income.

   Viscount needs 20-50 gold coins.

   Earl is 100-200 gold coins.

   There are more Marquis, generally more than 500 gold coins are required to pay tribute.

   There are actually many nobles.

  Like the northeastern province, there are dozens of nobles, large and small.

   In other more prosperous provinces, there are also a lot of nobles, and the number of nobles in some provinces has exceeded one hundred.

   There are still thousands of nobles in the whole kingdom.

   Of course, among these nobles, the lowest baron accounted for the vast majority!

   However, the king can only collect tribute from the nobles a year, and it can also be more than 100,000 gold coins.

   The tribute has long been collected by someone.

   Richard was quite generous, and gave the king 1,000 gold coins directly according to the marquis's standards.

   Such generosity is also necessary.

   directly gave Richard a good reputation in the circle of nobility.

   can also demonstrate Richard's financial resources.

   As for 1,000 gold coins, it is not a huge sum of money for Richard.

   In addition to paying tribute, usually on occasions like today, the nobles also give gifts to the king.

   And interestingly, gifts worth less than 100 gold coins are only included in the gift list and do not need to be presented separately.

   Gifts of more than 100 gold coins need to be presented to the king alone in this hall.

   In the circle of nobility, this is also a form of comparison.

   After all, being able to give a gift of more than 100 gold coins alone, so that all the nobles can see, this is a long-faced thing.

   Also, things with more than 100 gold coins are generally quite difficult to see.

  Don't say, the king still has a good grasp of the mentality of the nobles.

   Every year, the king receives gifts from the nobles, which are also worth tens of thousands of gold coins, even more than the gold coins paid by the nobles.

   "Earl Toby presents his Majesty a thousand-mile horse worth 300 gold coins, which can travel thousands of miles a day."

   Above the hall, a middle official had already taken the gift list and shouted loudly.

   "Wow, Maxima!"

   "Earl Toby is so generous~"

   "……"

   In the hall, the whispers of the nobles sounded.

   Then, a nobleman led a white horse in.

   This white horse does look quite good. Before Richard crossed it, it was a fairly rare horse.

   No wonder it is worth 300 gold coins!

   Such a horse, if it weren't for Richard to have Xiao Hei, he would want to buy one.

   "Earl Naz presented his Majesty a pair of South Sea corals, a pair of antlers, and 10 tiger whips worth 100 gold coins!"

   "Earl Petty presents your Majesty..."

   Zhongguan continued to read.

   Every time I read one, the nobleman will come out, present the gift personally, and the king’s guard will take it away.

The order of    Zhongguannian is not from small to large, or from large to small.

   but first the earl, then the son, the baron, and finally the marquis and duke.

   This extraordinary gift-giving conference lasted a lot of time.

   Although the netizens in the live broadcast room found it interesting, they were also scolding their mothers: "Can you hurry up, our time is precious!"

  Earls basically gave gifts worth more than 100 gold coins.

   Immediately afterwards, I read the Viscount.

   There are also many gifts worth more than 100 gold coins from the Viscount. At least the Baron is basically rare.

   It was the barons from the northeastern provinces who gave gifts of more than 100 gold coins, which made many nobles look at them with admiration.

   After reading the words of the son and the baron.

   Finally, it was the Marquis's turn.

  Many nobles' eyes focused on Richard.

   want to know how much Richard will give the king.

   They were not disappointed.

  Because the middle officer reads Richard first.

"The Marquis Richard presented a gift worth 5,000 gold coins to his Majesty. They were a crystal mirror worth 1,000 gold coins, a silk piece worth 1,000 gold coins, a set of 50 kilograms of Longjing tea worth 1,000 gold coins, and a set of 100 soaps worth 1,000 gold coins. Blocks, 100 barrels of beer, 100 sets of toothbrush and toothpaste..."

   The official read out the long list of gifts.

  In an instant, in the palace, a thousand waves were stirred up!

   Even the king couldn't help standing up.

   Because the value of the gift from Richard is too high!

  5000 gold coins!

  Some dukes are reluctant to give so many such expensive gifts!

   However, the gift that Richard gave, and the contents in it, the king has basically never heard of it!

   Not only the king, but a large number of nobles in this hall have never heard of it.

   But there are also some nobles who know, especially in the Northeast Province, there are nobles who have been to Richard's territory.

   "Earl Richard is so generous!"

   The nobles thought about it.

   Richard was a gift of 5,000 gold coins when he shot it. Such a big deal also made many aristocrats look at him with admiration!

   "Look at the expressions of these nobles and kings...I am afraid they will not know that these things from the anchor will definitely not exceed 100,000 yuan~"

   "50 Jin Longjing is still a bit expensive."

   "It also depends on what Longjing is. Ordinary ones are only a few hundred yuan per catty. They taste good when they drink. Silk is worth a little bit. As for other things...the total amount will not exceed 30,000 yuan!"

   "The premium of this mirror is terrible!"

   "Stainless steel mirrors are sold for 50 gold coins. Isn't such a big mirror expensive to sell?"

   "That's it~ scare them to death~"

   "……"

   In the live broadcast room, netizens also had an interesting discussion after hearing Richard's gift list.

   The things that Richard gave, really didn't cost much.

   Soon, those things were lifted up.

   "Wow~"

   When they saw the one-meter-high oval mirror, all the nobles couldn't help but "wow".

  Although many nobles have seen it outside before, the perception is different when viewed from such a close distance in the main hall.

   When the king saw this mirror, he couldn't help but walked down from the throne, and looked around the mirror endlessly, with a very happy expression on his face.

   "Haha, good, good!"

   The king is very happy.

   The one that was carried up right after that was silk.

   When the king touched the silky silk, his face changed.

   This kind of silk, even if the king wears extremely delicate clothes, he feels that it is not as noble as this kind of silk!

   "Richard, this kind of cloth is called silk?"

   The king touched the silk, very happy.

   In the hall, all the nobles, one by one, raised their toes and opened their eyes and looked at them.

   Richard said: "Exactly, Your Majesty, this is made of silk from a kind of insect called the silkworm. It is quite rare."

   The king touched the silk with great joy, and said: "It is indeed a good cloth, a horse of gold, it is indeed worthwhile!"

   What Richard wanted was his words.

   A piece of cloth is 33 meters long.

   A horse of gold is equivalent to thirty gold coins per meter of silk.

   The price is not generally expensive.

   is much more expensive than silk in another world.

   After all, this piece of silk, Richard bought the value of 100 yuan per meter, and bought a total of more than 30,000 yuan, but one piece of silk is worth 10 million!

   This is a difference of three hundred times!

   The best way to get the nobles to pay the bill obediently and pursue the silk is to ask the king to endorse them.
