Yegor was soon taken away by Leo, and the prince left the execution of the mission in the hands of the Moscow bureaucrat.
After Yegor left, the audience continued, and Gvalan's voice continued to announce the audience.
However, the following things are generally a bit boring, and they are all daily government affairs issues.
For example, they requested materials and manpower from Moscow, and proposed various ideas to the prince to seek funding.
In response to these requests, Rostislav also provided some reasonable support as always. After all, they came all the way to Moscow just to obtain resources. It would be very bad if they didn't give anything.
So he had to give him something. He didn't want to be known as stingy like his uncle.
However, some people discovered this and came to Rostislav to beg for food and resorted to all kinds of tricks and tricks. Rostislav endured it three times and hanged him to death on the fourth time.
The prince of Moscow can give some supplies to these guys who come to beg for food, but if they think the ruler of Moscow is a fool, then Rostislav will say that his sword is very sharp.
It was precisely by relying on this decisive killing that Rostislav deterred many greedy people and prevented his court from being filled with such beggars.
No one comes here to file a complaint. The circuit court in Rostislav has been established for so many years. Everyone knows who to go to for arbitration when they encounter disputes. Even people who don’t know how to go to the court will be directed there.
The circuit courts have more or less established their prestige in Northeast Ross over the years. These judges and their entourage travel around the countryside every month to handle some legal matters that need to be handled by them.
The authority of the Moscow regime is reflected in such small things, and Rostislav has always been satisfied with this.
Compared with sending away the beggars, it took a lot of time to talk to the representatives of Vicher. Talking with these people made Rostislav feel headache, and their demands always made him feel troublesome.
The guild's request is roughly that Vicher wants to strengthen its control over the guild area, and therefore hopes to obtain some privileges, some privileges that can put their status above all civil organizations in Moscow.
As a grass-roots unit in Moscow, Wycher is very dissatisfied with the guild district, a state within a state. The existence of the guild district has greatly damaged Wycher's power, making Wycher feel that their control over the grassroots has been greatly restricted.
Big threat.
Although Wycher is essentially a self-governing people's organization in Moscow, with its operation and the appointment and clarification of the powers of grassroots peace officers, tax collectors and militiamen, Wycher, a grassroots organization, has its own will and interests.
, it naturally has to act to safeguard these.
Moreover, those guilds were under the management of Wicher at the beginning, and even the guild masters were elected by the guild organizations. Now that these guild areas are independent of Wicher's scope of power, they are naturally extremely uncomfortable.
They felt even more uncomfortable after the guilds made the city more prosperous. Originally, all this should be their contribution, but the prince used his privileges to separate the guild area from Wicher's management. Now Wicher has difficulty even going to this area.
.
In this regard, Rostislav chose to continue with Xini. He asked Representative Wycher to talk to the big guys in the guild area. Come to me after you have negotiated, otherwise don't say anything.
On the surface, Rostislav gave so many privileges to the guilds in order to promote production in the guild areas - yes, there is indeed this reason, but he did not do it just for this.
What's more important is to separate the guild. If Wiche still has the support of a powerful group of guild craftsmen, then the authority of the prince will really be in danger.
Rostislav didn't want Moskovich to become as strong as Novgorodovich, so he chose to artificially divide it, and the effect was very effective.
The guild area is extremely treasured with this power, so there is no doubt that its loyalty to the prince has reached a higher level, and Witcher has also been established as a powerful enemy, enough to give it trouble for a long time.
This answer made Representative Wicher's expression look as ugly as if he had eaten a fly, because what he said was the same as what he didn't say.
If the guild area was willing to give up its privileges and return to the rule of Wicher, then the trouble would have been solved long ago, and they would not have been causing trouble for the prince.
After Representative Wicher said that they could not convince the guild, he was directly ordered to leave by Rostislav. If you can't be convinced, what can you say to him? Anyway, don't come to me about your affairs - this is Rostislav's best way to shirk the matter.
Good excuse.
The interviews continued, and among the many interviewers, only one caught Rostislav's attention and received his funding.
This man's name is Prolev, and he is a mixture of Norse and Rus.
He sailed on the Baltic Sea all year round, but he did not have his own ship, and he hoped that the prince would fund a large sum of money for a long voyage, allowing him to recruit men and order ships.
In fact, Prolev himself had saved a lot of gold and silver during his sailing career, but unfortunately it was still too far away from obtaining the resources he wanted, so he met with princes everywhere to try his luck, hoping to find someone willing to sponsor him.
And now he has traveled all the way to Northeastern Ross, which shows how many rejections this person has received. After all, the place he talks about is too vague. Many people have not even heard of this land. This land is in North
There is a name in people's mouth - Wenlan.
And Prolev hopes to go to that land and explore the scenery and land there.
This mixed-race child has grown up in various magnificent legends from far away places. His goal has always been to set foot on distant lands, explore the unknown and satisfy his strong curiosity.
Therefore, he chose Vinland as the destination of his voyage, a land that could only be reached across the vast western sea. The scenery there would surely amaze him and satisfy his restless desire to explore.
In this regard, as a visitor from later generations, Rostislav certainly knew what kind of land Vinland was, and it would become America in the future.
Vinland, also known as America, has actually been discovered by the Norse for a long time in this era. They even colonized this land, but they were soon driven out by the indigenous people, and no one has cared about this land since then.
stand up.
Prolev's request interested the Prince of Moscow because he had a perspective from later generations, so Rostislav did not mind sponsoring this man who everyone in the hall thought was a bit ridiculous.
Although there was no technical condition or necessity to colonize America, Rostislav still wanted to leave his name in the history of the discovery of America.
So he funded this man and gave him a very exaggerated amount of gold and silver, enough for him to order a powerful ship with materials that were not stingy at all and experienced sailors who could make him
Build the most powerful long-distance voyage ship of this era.
Prolev himself was surprised. He subconsciously thought that the ruler would still reject him, but he did not expect to receive funding, which made him almost jump with joy.
Everyone else in the audience hall was surprised. Rostislav had really changed his temper by doing this. According to the custom, shouldn't he be given a few silver coins and dismissed?
And because of Rostislav's gender change this time, no one raised any objections to this request. It was rare for the prince to let his temper run wild, and everyone had to give him face no matter what.
Facing the strange looks in everyone's eyes, Rostislav didn't care.
These people didn't know the significance of exploring Vinland, but he knew that doing so would make his reputation in history even greater.
After giving out such a huge sum of money, Rostislav also sent several soldiers to follow the ambitious sailor all the way to ensure that he spent all the money on building ships and recruiting sailors.
In this way, Prolev left the audience hall with many thanks. At this moment, Rostislav did not expect that it would be eleven years before he saw this man again.
What the Prince of Moscow didn’t even know was that Prolev would penetrate far deeper into the American continent than Rostislav imagined, and everything the adventurer recorded and witnessed in America would become powerful material for his creations.
