Chapter 5 Choice
After entering Carter City, Sulun separated from the caravan, and the caravan continued to go to the trading market, while Sulun was preparing to go to the hotel first.
When I opened the hotel door, the lively and noisy sounds were wrapped in the smell of ale, and the air was a little cloudy. It was afternoon and the hotel business had just begun.
Su Lun's arrival did not attract the attention of others. Under the guidance of the waiter, Su Lun came to the room on the second floor, took a brief rest, and went downstairs directly.
"A glass of ale! Give me some more food." Sulun came to the bar and threw a silver nhal at his hand.
He caught Yinnaer who was thrown over, and the hotel owner glanced at it and then smiled and put it away, "No problem! This is your ale, we eat grilled lamb chops, beef stewed with mushrooms and potatoes, and pork pies. They are all signature dishes in our hotel. What do you want to eat?"
"Give a serving of grilled lamb chops!"
"Please wait, your meal will come soon!" The middle-aged boss turned around and shouted.
"Bill, where is the death? Get this gentleman a grilled lamb chop!"
Soon a roasted lamb chop was served with a crispy and tender inside. Sulun tasted it and it tasted good, at least it was much better than eating it in the wild.
After eating voraciously, Su Lun took a bite of ale with satisfaction, then leaned on the table while listening to the people in the hotel bragging.
Su Lun did not live in a high-end hotel. Most of the people who were mercenaries were mercenaries. At this time, the tavern was almost full, with the sound of drinking, playing cards, chatting and maids' swearing, which was very lively. These mercenaries who walked around all needed to vent their responsibilities and return safely after finishing their mission.
They brought news from all over the world. Although many of the news were bragging by the mercenaries, it was still useful, such as local prices and information from surrounding cities.
Ordinary cast iron tools are not expensive, one an axe and one silver nal, and a saw is only two silver nal. However, military fine iron weapons are very expensive.
A military-style long sword is worth ten gold ners and is made using the 100-steel steelmaking process. It does not have any extraordinary enchantment. It incorporates some black steel to improve the toughness of the weapon, which is cheaper than Karen City.
A half-body chain mail is made of buckle technology. It is made of steel and has no enchantment. The price is seventy jinars. This price is equivalent to the savings of a civilian for three years. The price of an ordinary building in the outer city of Carter City is one hundred jinars.
As for more advanced plate armor, the price of full body armor is 400 to 500 jinars. This kind of well-made plate armor is only affordable for knights. Moreover, because plate armor is expensive, most knights' plate armor is inherited from the ancestral world.
So when you see a knight wearing historic armor on the battlefield, don't be surprised how much they pay attention to family honors, or traditions, they actually just don't have the money to exchange for new ones.
Sulun now has more than 6,000 kinars in his hands. These gold coins can only arm a team of fully armed soldiers of fifty people. Of course, if they are used to recruit militias with only one spear and leather armor, they can recruit 500 or even more. However, the gap between the two sides is that those fully armed soldiers can probably destroy these militias with one charge.
Su Lun came here to obtain a fiefdom and title. As a nobleman, there are many ways to want fiefdom and title. The easiest way to reincarnate as a good father. After adulthood, he inherits the territory and title directly from his father. Of course, this requires you to become the eldest son.
The second type is to join the army and get enough merits on the battlefield, and you have not died on the battlefield. When you are rewarded for merit, you can be crowned as a baron by the king and given a fief.
The third method is very operational. First, you must be handsome and handsome, and then have good health. It is best to reach the quasi-knight level. Find a countess with a dead husband with a knight territory. If you can successfully marry her, then you will have all the knight territory. Originally, Sulun had found a target, but because of the matter of Earl Karen, he could only cry and say goodbye to any countess.
The fourth type is the pioneering order, which is to go to the noble parliament, and then spend money to buy a pioneering order, and take people to the wilderness to build a territory. As long as you successfully persist, you can become a territorial noble, and the territory's scope is much larger than other nobles.
High profits are naturally accompanied by high risks. It costs huge supplies to open up the wilderness. Moreover, there are not only zombies, gangsters and goblins living in the wilderness, but also trolls, ogres, monsters, lizardmen, orcs, barbarian tribes, and even dragons. If you are not careful, your territory will be captured, and then all the huge investments in the early stage will be wasted. Even if you are not lucky, you will even become food in the belly of the wilderness monster.
If you don’t want to do this, then there is another choice, that is, to become a knight-level powerful man and then swear allegiance to a great nobleman, then you can get the title of a knight and a knight manor. Of course, as a knight of this noble, you must serve him for life and help him fight.
Su Lun naturally did not want to be a vassal of others. Once he was loyal to others, it would not be a generation. But from him, all his descendants would be a vassal of this noble. This was not sold for a lifetime, but for generations. Of course, this method was very attractive to civilians.
As for participating in the war and earning fiefs and titles during the war, the Kingdom of Florence has been established for hundreds of years, and most of the land in the kingdom has been enfeoffed. Even if Sulun made enough military achievements, the territory awarded to him will not be very large. There is a high probability that it will be a small town, and the area is pitiful.
He didn't want to work hard and die. Later, he was granted a small town in a remote area and sent him a chance of being unable to do so. With the urinary nature of those nobles, the chance of such a result was as high as 99%.
The first, second, third and fifth are not suitable, so Su Lun has the only way to buy pioneering.
Putting his luggage in the room, Sulun took his noble badge and picked up his long sword to walk outside the hotel, crossed the muddy street, and came to the bustling street. He found a stone with clear water horns on the side of the road. Sulun skillfully rubbed his feet on it a few times, rubbing the mud off the soles of his shoes.
His destination this time was the noble council of Carter City. The pioneering order can only be purchased here. In addition to the pioneering order, he can also donate aristocratic identity. Of course, this noble identity does not have a territory or title, and can only be regarded as an honorary title. However, even so, many big merchants are willing to spend money to buy it.
