Path of The Dragonborn

Vol 2 Chapter 1256: The Fate of Rivers (Part 2)

Jill quickly flipped through the proposal from the prince himself. He is more adept at doing this kind of things than his rugged and bold elder brother. Although the three brothers and sisters have not actually received higher education in management, they have been operating “Kapuya Express” for nearly two years. Here, he has learned a lot of experience from actual combat. He quickly grasped the main point of the prince’s proposal-a land lease system with guarantees in the name of the royal family.

The prince’s consideration was not inadequate—Jill thought so. During Liber’s years, they have decided to live as Liber citizens from now on, and their attachment to their homeland is no longer so heavy. Only occasionally after they and their eldest brother get drunk, they are still a little unwilling to think of the things at that time. Now that the culprit who caused them has fallen into the French Open, they have no other regrets. However, their registration status in the empire is probably still “aristocrat in exile”… If they can’t redeem the land with the money, then after 50 years of nature, the royal family can take back the land directly, and even the title will be invalidated. .

Let alone the fact that the cost of redemption of land has risen year by year, “Kapuya Express” is a Liber company, and as Liber citizens, they cannot serve as the empire’s nobles on the ground. This forms a paradox. In other words, they must make a choice between Liberty and Empire Territory. The addition of Olibat gave this kind of tit-for-tat alternative to maneuver: his proposal was to retain the title of the nobleman of the Capua family in the empire, but to change it from a nobleman on the ground to a nobleman who is close to the royal family; At the same time, the land was leased to the royal family for a fee by way of active transfer, and it can still be redeemed at a negotiated price after twenty years. If the Capua family chooses to return to the empire in twenty years, then everything will be business as usual; if they decide to stay in Liber thoroughly, their noble title will also be destroyed in the empire, but it is different from the situation where they are naturally eliminated after the time limit. Can get an extra payment.

To be honest, none of them had thought so far. No one can say what will happen in twenty years. The only thing that is certain is that they did have a very good life in Libel, busy and fulfilling… Jill explained the specific content of the contract to his elder brother in easy-to-understand language, and it was probably Duolun who also realized that it was quite Because of important things, he was more energetic and listened carefully. He actually understood it after only one time.

“Roughly speaking, if the prince does not intervene, we can only continue to stand in a stalemate with the imperial government, and then we will get nothing after 50 years… and now that the prince participates, we will either be in 20 years from now. If you redeem the land, you can either get a reward… And in these two decades, can we still retain the status of a nobleman in the empire?”

“Probably that’s the case.” Jill was relieved to see the rare excitement of his eldest brother. “The titles of court nobility and honorary nobility were originally granted to foreigners, as it used to be… so even in Libel, nothing will happen. Question. But… Generally speaking, the nobles on the ground will only be converted to this kind of aristocratic status that has lost power after they lose in the political struggle, and basically there is no need to think about turning back to the nobles on the ground… Your Highness’s thoughts. Obviously it benefits us.”

“As for the specific amount, you can ask the representatives of the Imperial Bank and the Legal Notary Office to discuss separately.” The civil servants of the Empire reminded them, “You only need to give a rough answer, and we can tell your Royal Highness to make further arrangements. Of course, if You want your lawyer to intervene, and it’s okay.”

“Can I dare to ask a question?” Jill hesitated for a moment, “His Royal Highness… what is his specific plan for getting Livers?”

“I’m sorry…I don’t know the answer to this question.” The other party was also sincere. “Specifically, you can talk with the temple. If you can’t make up your mind, you can also discuss and discuss with other people. Your Royal Highness is expected to meet. Come here in a few days and hope you can draw conclusions on some of the current issues.”

——————————

“The situation just now…it seems to be Olivier…Olibate wants to buy their former land from the tomboy family?” After sending the empire staff to the airport, Joshua and Esther arrived at the airport. In the rest area of ​​the area, “Joshua, do you understand what is going on?”

“Almost…” Joshua said while paying for ice cream from the window next to him, “The imperial government is inconvenient to negotiate, but it cannot treat the law as nothing… Your Royal Highness intervened as a royal family close to Libel to deal with this issue. At the same time, strive for something for yourself.”

“That imperial official looked like hesitating to speak…this shouldn’t be Olivier’s trick again…” Obviously, Estelle remembered the double act during the floating city period.

“It shouldn’t be… he has his own power now, and that kind of tricks can be played less.” Joshua took the ice cream and sat down beside Esther. “Speaking of… Esther. Compared to Your Highness’s question, now we should be more concerned about Ling’s question, right?”

“Ah… Yeah. If you don’t tell me, I almost forgot…” Estelle muttered, “Wait…Speaking of which, they two—”

“Don’t worry… Heliga told me before that they are going to the secret base on Lake Valyria, and then… they want us to meet in Luan.”

“Ah… when did you… when did he tell you?” As Joshua took out two airship tickets to Luan from his pocket, Estelle looked surprised.

“I said it early in the morning…” Joshua was dumbfounded. He took out the “ARCUS” force guide that Oribat gave to the two of them, and turned out the force address book, “Look.”

“Does it have this kind of function? I thought…” Estelle hurriedly took out her power guide and looked at it hurriedly, “Ah… there is it. Really… why do you have such a convenient function? I have to hide…”

“It’s not hidden, it’s just not easy to find. “ARCUS” is also the fifth-generation force guide, and its function is indeed much stronger than that of Anigma… It seems that the Guerrilla Association will be replaced with a new force on a large scale. The argument of the device is not groundless. “Compared to Estiel, Joshua obviously knows more about the news, “However, compared to the products distributed by the association, the gifts of your Royal Highness seem to have other functions…”
