I Have a Dragon Island - Chapter 562
[Chapter 562 Chris’s Expectation]
As the only countess in the Kingdom of Thorns, Chris felt that she was already very kind.
The tax rate in his own territory was only 40%, but he didn’t expect that the new baron of Thunder Town would be even more generous.
After a pause, a smile suddenly appeared in Chris’s eyes.
“Could it be that the variable is this baron? Oh, Yosel, mercy cannot change fate.”
Although there was a smile in her eyes, Chris’s tone was a little bleak.
After a pause, a bright glow suddenly appeared on her face.
“Forget it. No matter what the variables are… No matter how barren this land is, it is still my territory… You go back first and ask the servants to clean up the castle. I have decided not to leave.”
After a pause, Chris’s voice became barely audible again, whispering softly.
“The benevolent baron? Interesting. I can’t wait to meet him.”
…
Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.
That day, Yu Bu sat in the Baron’s office, frowning as he flipped through the last town information booklet.
“When did the citizens register?”
Yu Bu was very dissatisfied. If he really wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination, the residents on the list in front of him could be traced back to a hundred years ago.
He didn’t expect that the previous baron was so irresponsible that he only knew how to eat and drink and didn’t even update his registration.
After a pause, he sighed, feeling that he had really committed a sin to be a noble here.
I originally wanted to distribute the corn seeds and then wait quietly for them to mature.
However, within this half month, the people had finished sowing the corn seeds, and the system issued the third round of tasks.
“Verify the information and set up patrols and knight groups.”
When Yu Bu saw this task, he couldn’t help but complain inwardly.
Could it be that when he was in Fengming Town, he often acted like a hands-off boss, so even the system couldn’t stand it and wanted to make up for it?
Thinking of this, Yu Bu became secretly angry again.
But no matter what, the dragon knight’s bloodline has only been increased to 30%, and the dragon knight’s path still needs to be continued, so I must not slack off.
Although he was reluctant, he finally compromised.
“Old Mike, Old Mike!”
Yu Bu called out twice, and suddenly a thin but ruddy-faced old man came running from the corridor on the second floor.
After taking a look at the other person, Yu Bu said calmly, “It seems like you’ve been living a comfortable life recently?”
Old Mike smiled awkwardly, then immediately turned serious and claimed that he felt the master’s kindness and that was why his health had improved recently.
Yu Bu waved his hands in disdain.
After just a few days in Thunder Town, he had completely wiped out the decline of the entire town.
Although Thunder Town is not much different from what it was half a month ago, the atmosphere of the entire town has changed and it is full of tremendous vitality.
After learning that Yu Bu had reduced taxes, the whole town became happy.
Old Mike and others also benefited greatly. Their salary increased to two silver coins a day, and they couldn’t help but feel elated.
Even two days ago, the Baron, for some reason, gave the servants in the castle a day off.
Taking advantage of this time, Old Mike went to the neighboring town of Thunder Town to visit his old friend.
That town is very rich. Although they are neighbors, the living standards of the residents there far exceed those of Thunder Town.
Old Mike was once very envious of his old friend, because the other party also worked in the noble castle and his daily salary was 50 copper coins!
