"That was because I suddenly chose to hold it in the Holy City, so the time was rushed."
"Speaking of which, I still want to apologize to you all for not being able to buy you a drink."
Nalant was very humble and did not ignore these little nobles just because they had become weak.
Of course, he politely declined the gift.
"Baron Nalant, your choice must be reasonable, and there is no need to apologize to us."
"However, Baron Nalant must give this gift. This is the wish of all of us."
"If Baron Nalant doesn't accept it, we will feel bad about it."
"Everyone, I really can't accept this gift, and it won't be easy for you either..." Nalant felt helpless.
He knew the situation of these small nobles and they were not wealthy.
Therefore, he really couldn't bear to accept these gifts.
After all, he was a little worried about whether these nobles were given away by others.
But if they didn't send it, they would make their own suggestions when the time comes.
"Baron Nalant, please accept this gift, and we...we will not disturb Baron Nalant any more!"
Several minor nobles saw that Nalant was really not ready to accept him.
He actually put the gift box directly on the road, and then took a group of subordinates to wander around.
"..."
Nalant didn't expect that he would encounter someone who was giving gifts to someone who was running away.
"Sir, let me go and give you the gift and put it away!"
At this time, Raymond's reaction was not slow, and he immediately moved towards several gift boxes.
"Wow, sir, they are sculptures made of gold. There are golden wolves and golden swift eagles!"
Raymond held several wooden boxes, opened them and looked at them, and immediately exclaimed.
"Okay, Raymond, put it away!"
"By the way, is there any signature in it?" Nalant thought for a while and asked.
"Sir, yes, there is a signature underneath this golden sculpture."
Raymond checked it and answered immediately.
"Okay, then keep the gifts and ask Butler Thomas to register these names in the register when you get back!"
Narant shook his head, and then the team started setting off again.
"My lord, my lord, Baron Nalant's motorcade has left!"
After Nalant's motorcade left, in an open space one mile away, the nobles who had said they were leaving gathered here.
"Did Baron Narante take the gift away?"
"Take it away, sir. I saw the tall barbarian captain loading the gifts onto the carriage!"
"Great, Baron Nalant accepted the gift!"
"Yes, even though I didn't get to make friends with Baron Nalant, by giving me a gift, at least I will have an excuse to go to Stormland to visit Baron Nalant in the future!"
"Alas, it's such a pity that we couldn't attend Baron Nalant's wedding!"
"I heard that Baron Nalant was very majestic at that time. That holy son of the kingdom of God turned green with anger in the end. Those ten dragon knights faced Baron Nalant, but they didn't dare to move!
"
"Yes, Baron Nalant is now the most powerful nobleman in our Holy Continent!"
"So, we have to hug Baron Nalant's thighs!"
"I am very sure of that!"
"By the way, have you ever thought about whether to leave the empire and join Baron Nalant's Storm Territory?"
"Well... I do think so, but haven't Jerry and those guys not yet succeeded in getting Baron Nalant to establish a principality?"
"Even if we leave the empire, we won't have anywhere to go by then!"
"That's true. I hope Jerry and the others can complete it quickly and let Baron Nalant establish a principality. Then we will directly break away from the empire."
"Following Baron Nalant is definitely better than following these empires!"
"Yes, not only do they require us to pay three more layers of taxes, they also require us to change our beliefs. What kind of thing is this!"
"Yes, we have believed in the God of Glory for half our lives, and we can never change it!"
"Then let's all go back and wait. I hope Jerry and the others can succeed soon!"
…
Nalant didn't know that the addition of Io continent had changed the structure of the entire Holy Continent.
Many empires and principalities had to pay more taxes to the Kingdom of God, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many nobles.
Originally, nobles only had to hand over 30% of their taxes to the prince.
But now because of the Kingdom of God, their taxes have reached the sixth level.
This is because the upper-class nobles directly passed the pressure on to these small nobles.
In this way, in the end, someone else got the lion's share of the hard work of the small nobles, and naturally no one was willing.
As for the nobles who originally belonged to the Holy Continent, it's okay to say that, after all, they have a strong sense of belonging to the original empire and principality.
But the nobles from the Glory Continent are different.
They have no sense of belonging to these empires.
In addition, Jerry and others who returned from the Holy City some time ago promoted the majesty of Nalant's wedding all the way.
They also secretly stated that they were planning to elect Narant to establish a principality.
When the time comes, relying on Nalant's thighs, they will be able to live a better life than these indigenous nobles in the Holy Continent.
Suddenly, the words of Jerry and others gave these little nobles a different thought.
If Nalant establishes a principality, they can also join.
In this way, a group of nobles appeared on the road and stopped Narant's motorcade and forced them to deliver gifts.
And these nobles are not the only ones who have such thoughts.
At this moment, there are waves of nobles waiting on the Black Rock Plain.
Some even came all the way, but when they met Nalant, they still shamelessly said that they were the nobles nearby.
The consequence of this was that Nalant's originally light and simple team actually ended up with three extra cars of gifts.
Basically, they are all kinds of statues made of gold.
Although this gift is not expensive, it is enough to express my feelings.
