Under Bruno's rule, the Principality of Idar has a unique executive power on this continent.

As soon as the order for the formation of the Ministry of Defense of the Principality of Idar and the construction of the Alhambra was issued, all the departments and agencies involved in related matters in the Principality of Idar all acted immediately.

First, the Idar military.

After being appointed as the Minister of Defense of Idar, Sarah Koren immediately mobilized a small part of the backbone of the Idar CIA and Idar’s navy, land and air forces to form the Defense Ministry of the Principality of Idar. Prototype.

The distribution of the soldier's salary, the organization number of each unit, the deployment of weapons and equipment, the assessment of military rank, the formation of the reserve, the recruitment of soldiers, and even the operation of the Idar Arsenal and the management of the Idar Humanistic Care Laboratory...

All of the above, all matters related to the defense construction of the Principality of Idar, are all the work that the Ministry of National Defense is responsible for.

Today, the Principality of Idar is indeed stable internally and develops steadily.

However, the situation outside the Principality is changing rapidly, and it may change every moment, so...this also requires that the Idar army must continue to expand its troops and improve its combat effectiveness.

The existence of the Ministry of National Defense also allows commanding generals such as Sam Layton to save daily trivialities and devote all their energy to training the army and tactics.

While Saron Coron was busy forming the Idar Ministry of Defense, the construction of the Alhambra began to be carried out in an orderly manner.

The Idar Department of Finance began to approve funds, and the Department of Government Affairs and the City Planning Department began to prepare for the demolition and compensation of houses for the resettlement of people who originally lived in the construction area of ​​the [Alhambra].

As for those refugees who were originally responsible for the construction of the Venetian Armory, if they have found a reliable job in the Merlin District, the Idar Immigration Administration will be responsible for the local resettlement.

But if they still fail to find a suitable source of livelihood, they will begin to move to the city of Idar in batches under the arrangement of the staff of the Migration Bureau and participate in the construction of the Alhambra.

Not only that, due to the close connection between the Alhambra and the Idar military, which is different from the construction of the previous spectacles, the Idar army and the agents of the Idar CIA also participated in the construction of the Alhambra.

Of course, in addition to monitoring the progress of the construction, they will also present their own needs to the great engineers of the Principality of Idar and point out the parts that need to be revised on the original drawings.

For example...

The Alhambra needs to allow the Griffin Rider to land,

The Central Intelligence Agency of Idar needs to set up an independent office inside the Alhambra to realize timely communication with the Ministry of Defense of the Principality of Idar.

It even changes the internal structure, removes unnecessary luxury installations inside the palace, and reserves part of the space as a safe house, or reserves office space for other departments that have not yet been established.

In short, with the groundbreaking of the Alhambra, the city of Idar is obviously more lively than in previous days.

The east end of Jingshi Road has become a huge construction site, and since the Alhambra almost traverses Jingshi Road, this east-west road had to change its direction near the Alhambra.

The influx of a large number of people made the streets of Idar City bustling with hustle and bustle, and more and more walls were demolished due to the expansion of the city.

If you look down from the sky, Idar City at this time will have a large gap in the wall in almost every direction.

But…

Bruno is not worried, nor are the Idars living in this land.

There are no robbers and bandits, and there are no riots and wars.

The soldiers of Idar have long kept the enemy thousands of miles away, and no enemy's army can break through the blockades and come to the core territory of the Principality of Idar.

The defeat of the Odin greatly strengthened the confidence of the Idars. In addition, the people’s life is getting better and better under the rule of Stuart, and the people are also devoted to the Duchy of Idar. The Idar soldiers are full of respect.

so…

When Justin Lucio finally passed the Stranglethorn Vale Customs and saw the city of Idar in the distance, although there was no shelter from the towering walls there, his heart was still hanging. This moment calmed down.

Located in the eastern part of the Norman Empire, the Idar Nation can be said to be a necessary place for traders who traveled between the Kingdom of Basel and the Norman Empire.

And Justin Lucio was a merchant who traveled between the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel.

As a trader, his job is nothing more than selling the goods of the Kingdom of Basel to the Norman Empire, and then bringing the specialties of the Norman Empire back to the Kingdom of Basel.

All in all, it is through reselling goods to earn the difference in price.

Since it often takes a long time to travel between the two countries, and the long distance will greatly increase the possibility of encountering changes, the risks to be assumed are also extremely high.

therefore…

Most of the traders engaged in this kind of trade were civilian traders who did not have the protection of nobles.

Most of them were born in the most ordinary civilian families. By chance, they caught the opportunity, and then they became businessmen.

But officially because of their shallow foundation and lack of background, these ordinary traders cannot compete with the white gloves under the aristocracy, nor can they enter any low-risk, high-profit industry.

Therefore, you can only earn money by buying and selling, risking being robbed by bandits to accumulate your wealth.

And Justin Lucio can already be regarded as the top civilian businessman of this era!

He not only owns a few fleets, but also employs a large number of driver and guards under his command. With bit by bit accumulation, he has accumulated a lot of wealth in these years.

However, because he didn't have any background, even if he accumulated a lot of money, he could only be buried deep in the ground.

Because Justin Lucio knew very well in his heart that as long as the noble master said a word, the money he had accumulated after working hard for most of his life would be gone forever.

therefore…

When Justin Lucio witnessed the tremendous changes that have taken place in the Principality of Idar in the past two years, his heart was full of restlessness.

From a dilapidated small city far away on the border to this magnificent giant city today.

The strength that the Principality of Idar now possesses is enough to break with the many powerful forces on this continent.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Justin Lucio would never have believed that in just two years, Idalling could have undergone such changes as if it were a change in the world!

But for Justin Lucio, this is not the most important.

The Principality of Idar is the only nobleman on the entire continent with clear regulations on commercial taxation.

At Bruno's request, the Principality of Idar formulated a clear tax policy, regulated the taxes that merchants had to pay to the Principality, and clarified the rights and obligations of merchants.

As long as the laws and regulations of the Principality of Idar are not violated, and the taxes that should be paid are not evaded, even the most ordinary civilian businessman can live steadily on the land of the Principality of Idar!

In Justin Lucio's view, or for all civilian businessmen, nothing can be more attractive than a stable social life and clear rules and regulations!

so…

Coming to the Principality of Idar this time, Justin Lucio is no longer ready to leave!

The chaotic situation in the interior of the empire caused severe damage to the business travel between the two countries.

With the gradual advancement of the army of the second prince Ryze, even the southern part of the empire, where the frontline has been relatively stable, has become a mess.

You know, the hungry and cold refugees and the defeated soldiers fleeing from the battlefield don't care about the guards in the civilian caravan, as long as they can survive, they can do anything!

It is precisely for this reason that the business environment in the interior of the empire has deteriorated sharply. If he does not want to take his own life, then Justin Lucio must stop the march of his caravan.

"Everyone, stop, I'll settle the wages of the past few months for you..."

Looking at the city of Idar not far away, Justin Lucio stopped his caravan from advancing.

Hearing that, the surrounding guards and coachmen all surrounded one after another.

In fact, they didn't make much money this time, and it could even be said that it was a loss-making business.

Most of the goods in the caravan were already looted by deserters and refugees when they were in the middle of the empire.

Even though the caravan's guards fought hard to resist, many of them were stunned, but it was of no avail.

If you change to someone else, you may refuse to pay compensation on the grounds of a loss, but Justin Lucio, who is a commoner, knows that these people's lives are not easy, so he can't do anything that deliberately defaults on payment.

In fact, it is precisely for this reason that Justin Lucio has become one of the few civilian vendors with several fleets by virtue of his good reputation.

And the most important thing is that today Justin Lucio has become a citizen of Idar. In the Principality of Idar, he maliciously defaulted on workers' wages, but he would be charged a hefty fine!

Moreover, for Justin Lucio, such a loss is completely affordable.

Except for the current team, the rest of the team has already been sold by Justin Lucio, and the relevant personnel have been properly placed.

And Justin Lucio's wife and children have long since immigrated to the Principality of Idar with all their belongings and took root in this land.

As for the guards and coachmen in front of them, they can already be regarded as the last people around Justin Lucio.

"Master Justin, thank you for your gift, the God of Light will surely send you blessings!"

"Master Justin, if you have any more work in the future, please do not hesitate to tell us!"

The drivers who got their wages bowed and expressed their gratitude toward Justin Lucio.

After dismissing the labor and escorts who followed him, Justin Lucio returned to his residence in the city of Idar before sunset.

Justin Lucio’s house is located in the eastern part of the city of Idar, near the Caracalla Baths. It can be regarded as one of the best houses in the city of Idar.

Mrs. Lucio had long been waiting at the door to greet her husband who had come from afar.

"I knew I would not take this last trip. I encountered some problems on the road and lost a lot of money."

After a long separation, when Justin Lucio saw his wife and children again, in order to avoid unnecessary worry, he just mentioned lightly the shadow of the sword he had experienced.

"It’s good to come back safely. Our family has accumulated a lot of money over the years, and business in Idar City is gradually improving. From now on, you don’t want to run around. Just stay in the Principality of Idar safely and securely. NS."

Mrs. Lucio carefully wiped the sweat stains on her husband's forehead, and said with some worry.

Different from the requirements of the refugees to emigrate to the Principality of Idar, if a foreign businessman wants to obtain an Idar citizen ID card issued by the Idar Public Security Bureau, he must provide a certain number of jobs for the Principality of Idar.

Therefore, in order to obtain permission to emigrate, Justin Lucio gave his wife a large sum of money to buy shops in Idar City and recruit workers, so that her family could obtain the citizenship of Idar. identity.

When the exhausted Justin Lucio sat down from the dining table, Mrs. Lucio had already prepared warm coffee and freshly baked white bread for him.

"This is…"

Looking at the cup of dark brown liquid in front of him, Justin Lucio looked a little puzzled.

"This drink is called coffee. This is something unique to the Principality of Idar!" Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lucio said quickly: "When you take it, you will feel a little bitter, but if it is fine, you can taste something. The strands are extremely mellow and sweet."

Seeing his wife's swearing appearance, Justin Lúcio picked up the cup of warm coffee and chuckled: "In less than half a year, you have begun to call yourself Idar?"

"call…"

Mrs. Lucio added a little sugar to the coffee, so instead of feeling any bitterness, it surprised Justin Lucio.

The taste is full-bodied and full of aroma. After the slight bitterness, there is a unique sweetness of coffee, at least...Justin Lucio likes it very much.

"Indeed... not bad..."

"That's natural!" Mrs. Lucio raised her head and said proudly.

"But... Since this business has stopped, I should always find something to do, otherwise... Isn't it just sitting in the air? You have been in the Principality of Idar for half a year. Have you found any business opportunities? ?"

He tore off a piece of white bread and stuffed it into his mouth, a trace of worry appeared on his face.

In the days when Justin Lucio was in business, Mrs. Lucio not only provided him with advice, but also provided him with great help. She acted boldly and competently. Otherwise, he would not rest assured that his wife would take it alone. With the family and children, came to this strange land in the Principality of Idar.

Therefore, Justin Lucio did not evade anything, but asked straightforwardly.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lucio's face showed a trace of puzzlement:

"Didn't you give me a sum of money to open a few stores in this city of Idar? If it wasn't because our stores provided enough jobs, how did we get our citizenship?"

"It's just a few shops, no matter how many stores, how much money can you make every month?"

Although Justin Lucio had already made up his mind to take root in the Principality of Idar, he still said nonchalantly.

after all…

Although the risk is high in business, the profit that can be gained by running a business route is definitely not a small amount.

And to be honest, Justin Lucio never thought about how much profit he could make for the shops that opened in Idar City, and it was enough as long as it could break even.

Because his original purpose is actually very simple, that is, to hire more people and provide a sufficient number of jobs, so that his family can be eligible to immigrate to the Principality of Idar.

Heard that,

Mrs. Lucio raised her head proudly and said sternly:

"Don't tell me, just one month's work, I made a full 30 gold coins."

"Well, not yet... Wait, how much do you say?"

Justin Lucio's voice suddenly changed.

You can earn more than 30 gold coins in a month, so if you count it like this...

There are nearly 400 gold coins in one year!

This kind of profit is already comparable to the profit made by running a caravan!

With similar profits,

One is to take great risks to walk in a foreign country, and the other is to stay in the Principality of Idar. It is obvious which business is better or worse!

Seeing the astonishment on her husband's face, Mrs. Lucio once again affirmed:

"Yes, I can earn more than 30 gold coins a month!"

"How could there be so many?!"

"Do you know how much an Idar civilian can earn in a month?" Mrs. Lucio did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Dozens of copper plates?" Justin Lucio said a number he thought was very high.

"Eight or ninety copper plates, many ordinary people's monthly wages can even exceed one hundred copper plates!" Mrs. Lucio said seriously.

"How can this be?!"

At this moment, Justin Lucio was completely shocked.

If a civilian can earn one hundred copper plates a month, then one thousand two hundred copper plates a year, which is equivalent to sixty silver shillings, or three gold coins!

As a trader who travels all over the world, Justin Lucio clearly knows that among other nobles, an ordinary civilian can get 30 copper plates per month, which is already considered good!

And the salary of Idar's civilians can reach three times that of other nobles, or even more! !

"In the beginning, I thought it was impossible, but...this is indeed the status quo in the Duchy of Idar."

Mrs. Lucio paused before continuing:

"The war in the interior of the empire has led to more and more refugees and merchants pouring into this land. The existence of refugees will bring a lot of labor, and the arrival of merchants will bring a lot of money to this land."

"And Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, also made a lot of money from the nobles in various ways, and then organized the refugees to build roads and bridges and build wonders."

"But... Actually, I don't know why such a significant change occurred, but the Duchy of Idar seems to have produced a discipline that specializes in this type of issue, and the Duke calls it'economy'."

"economy?"

"Yes." Mrs. Lucio nodded affirmatively.

Although Justin Lucio would often pass through the land of the Principality of Idar before that, his knowledge of the Principality of Idar is certainly not comparable to that of his wife who has lived here for more than half a year.

Therefore, after a detailed discussion with his wife, Justin Lucio gradually understood the current situation of the Principality of Idar.

But…

The more detailed he understood, the more he was shocked by Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar.

Before that, he had only seen that the Principality of Idar had a powerful army, had a growing population, and its status in the Norman Empire was getting higher and higher, able to stay out of the chaos of the empire.

But when he heard more and more news about the Principality of Idar in his wife’s mouth, Justin Lucio finally realized that the military strength and institutional norms of the Principality of Idar were only one aspect. What he had previously understood was only the tip of the iceberg of the Duchy of Idar.

During the reign of Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, the most significant change that took place in the Principality of Idar was actually the lives of ordinary people.

From hunger and cold to living and working in peace and contentment, in Justin Lucio’s cognition, there is no aristocratic leader in this world that can make such a huge change in two years.

but…

The Principality of Idar has subverted Justin Lucio’s cognition, because...this aristocratic leader in the eastern part of the empire really did it!

The skyrocketing income of the people will certainly increase the price level to a certain extent, but this increase has been controlled by Bruno within a certain range.

There is sufficient food supply and stable market supply and demand.

As the people began to have more coins in their hands, the items available to the people of Idar to buy and choose were gradually increasing.

In daily wear, civilians no longer have to wear a crude cotton-padded coat that has long been dilapidated as a family heirloom. They can buy clothes of fair price and good quality in department stores in the Principality of Idar.

In terms of diet, white bread in the Principality of Idar is no longer exclusive to the noble lords, and hard-working civilians can also rely on their own efforts to buy white bread that has just been baked.

In the living environment, the streets full of dung water and stains have long disappeared, replaced by clean and tidy streets and the goal of various communities to create a civilized community in Idar City!

The new clothes produced by the Idar Textile Factory are featured snacks near the Caracalla Baths and on the streets of towns, mosquito coils, soap, daily necessities, newspapers and other reading materials...

During this period of time, all the changes that took place in the Principality of Idar were seen by the people and deeply affected all aspects of social life in the Principality of Idar.

"So... relying on those shops, you can earn more than 30 gold coins in one month..."

Although he has accepted this fact, in Justin Lucio's heart, there has been an unreasonable sense of frustration.

He didn't know why he felt this way in his heart.

But what the Principality of Idar had shown before him made him feel dumbfounded and speechless for a while.

If at the beginning,

He was shocked by everything about the Principality of Idar, so when his wife described everything about the Principality of Idar to him in detail... Justin Lucio’s emotions in his heart can no longer be described by the word "shock". NS.

As if seeing the imbalance deep in her heart, Mrs. Lucio continued:

"Not all stores can generate such huge profits. Our three shops are all located near Idar Avenue and in the Idar Department Store. There is a huge flow of people nearby, so sales and profits naturally don’t worry about it. ."

"It's just... there is one thing that I'm a little bit unsure of and can't make up my mind, so you still need to make up your mind..." After her husband gradually recovered her composure, Mrs. Lucio muttered for a moment, then said in a deep voice.

"what's up?"

"Buy a house! And it's a villa outside the city of Idar!"

A week's time, fleeting.

The new house mentioned by Mrs. Lucio is actually the "noble manor" located northwest of the city of Idar.

Just as Bruno had imagined, although the name of this real estate project was called "Noble Manor", the actual target customers were these big businessmen who moved to the Principality of Idar.

The main reason why Bruno attracted Idar nobility such as Earl Dale and Earl Bailey was not to make money, but to hype!

Being neighbors with nobles and being neighbors with merchants are definitely two completely different concepts.

so…

Since it can sell a price of 15 gold coins per square meter to the nobles in the wilderness, when it is officially publicly sold, Riverside Real Estate will definitely be able to sell at a high price of more than 20 gold coins per square meter!

In other words, if Harley Santa Cruz, the person in charge of Riverside Real Estate, is not a fool, then as long as you follow the strategy drawn up by Bruno little by little, the sale of this aristocratic manor will definitely be extremely popular!

In fact, there are already many businessmen who are ready to move about this, even Justin Lucio, who just came to the Principality of Idar, is one of them.

It has been a week since Justin Lucio came to the Duchy of Idar.

During this week, he not only personally visited the shop that had been run by his wife, Mrs. Lucio, but, like most Idars, he was used to reading the latest issue of the Idar Daily. ".

During this period of time, the name "Noble Manor" has always been a frequent visitor to newspapers.

In fact... advertising slogans such as famous waterfront mansions, comfort, drunken gardens, and private territories are not very attractive to Justin Lucio.

But there is one sentence in it that impressed Justin Lucio-as a neighbor to the nobles and imagine the future life.

Man is a very complex creature.

When Justin Lucio never came to the Principality of Idar, he was always worried that his wealth would be coveted by the greedy nobles, and he was always afraid of the power of the nobles.

It cannot be denied that while fearing the nobility, everyone wants to get in touch with the nobility, seeming to want to prove their extraordinary.

The stable social environment of the Principality of Idar and the "aristocratic manor" created by Riverside Property provide them with such an opportunity.

Although in the Duchy of Idar, the noble families other than the Stuart family have long lost their power and status, and they cannot intervene in the decision-making and operation of the duchy.

But the nobility still holds an unusual position in people's hearts.

The nobles care about their dignity as aristocrats, and these merchants who have seen hope in the Principality of Idar also want to pick up their dignity and obtain a position similar to their wealth and abilities.

For most businessmen, the simplest and rude way to give themselves status and dignity is to have a relationship with the nobles. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

So... Becoming neighbors with the noble lords naturally became a common idea in the hearts of many businessmen, including Justin Lucio.

It is precisely because of this that once the news that the villas of the noble manor will be officially opened for sale today, the great merchants of the entire Idar Principality have heard the wind for a hundred years and rushed.

Naturally, many of them came with the mentality of joining in the fun and long-term knowledge, but there are definitely many merchants who sincerely want to pay for the villa.

What's more... The name "neighbors with nobles" is more to speculate on prices and increase attractiveness. The future appearance of the noble manor described by Riverside Realty has made many people's hearts itchy.

If the construction is not good, how can aristocratic lords like Earl Dale and Earl Bailey buy properties in such a remote place?

so…

On the day when the Noble Manor officially opened for sale, Justin Lucio, who was impatient for a long time, took his wife to the sales office of the "Noble Manor" located in the downtown area of ​​Idalsi.
