Chapter 353 The fief is over, ready to go to Notting City! (twenty two)
"Uncle Xue Xing, what you said is wrong. The Black Steel City is indeed very important to the empire, but it is not just the Black Steel City that provides the empire with minerals, right? The Emperor Father has already entrusted the Black Steel City to Bai. Sing, now that you say this, do you want to put the father in an unrighteous place?"
On the side, Xue Qinghe stood up.
"Qinghe, as the crown prince, you have to think about the empire. As the emperor, your majesty has to think about the empire. Although this matter is small, it has far-reaching consequences. You must not start with it!"
Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Prince Xue Xing argued sophistry.
"The beginning? Hehe, but if you really do this, where is the prestige of the father? According to you, many of the emperor's uncle's fiefs should also come back. After all, there are also people in their fief There are many cities that are very important to the empire. I remember that there is a Huitieling in your fief, Uncle Xuexing. Two years ago, it was discovered that there is an important soul guide material, dark iron ore. Dark iron ore is very important to the empire. Please also Uncle Emperor, return Huitieling to the empire!"
Xue Qinghe sneered.
"This……"
Prince Xue Xing wanted to say something more, but Emperor Xue Ye suddenly said: "Okay, don't say any more, since I have sealed Heigangcheng out, it won't change anymore, Xue Xing, don't say any more gone."
Seeing that Xue Qinghe was about to quarrel with Prince Xue Xing, for the sake of the royal family's face, Emperor Xue Ye stopped in time.
Although things didn't develop as he imagined, but making Baige owe Prince Xue Qinghe's favor was not a bad result.
"...Yes, Brother Emperor."
Hearing Emperor Xue Ye's words, Prince Xue Xing obediently put his flag down.
Originally, he knew that he would definitely not succeed this time. Baige has great potential, great power, and background. It is impossible for him, a shrewd brother, to offend Baige for such a worthless trivial matter. It's just to add some embarrassment to Baige.
Huang Xie Ye is so shrewd that he will definitely not give up this opportunity. He will definitely take advantage of his nonsense to finally appear on the stage as a good old man to win Bai Ge's heart, but he did not expect Xue Qinghe to take advantage of it. It made Prince Xue Xing a little depressed.
……
After the conferring ceremony was over and the conferring document was accepted, Baige successfully obtained the fief Heigangcheng, and became the lord of Heigangcheng and the towns in the area radiated by Heigangcheng, while Ning Rongrong, Meng Yiran, Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling They also each received their own letter of conferment.
Black Steel City plus the fiefs of the four women, these five cities are connected together, basically including the entire border county of Fanos province. To a certain extent, Baige is the lord of the border county of Fanos province .
"Thank you, His Royal Highness."
After the knighting ceremony, Bai Ge found Xue Qinghe to thank him.
"You're welcome, it's just a matter of little effort, but my uncle has always been a caring person. If you offended him before, I'm afraid he won't let it go. You really don't need my help?"
Xue Qinghe shook his head, and while talking, looked at Baige again with burning eyes.
"No need, I'm going to leave to go to the fief soon, so he shouldn't follow me to find fault in my fief, right?"
Bai Ge wiped his sweat.
Of course he understands the meaning hidden in Xue Qinghe's words. Dare to feel that His Highness the Crown Prince has not given up on recruiting him, but in Bai Ge's view, Prince Xue Xing can only disgust him on this. If he dares to play, it really doesn't look right on him. Kill him, don't say anything else, let Meng Shu beat up Prince Xue Xing every day, Prince Xue Xing dare not fart, but he doesn't bother to care about it now, there will be opportunities to clean up in the future.
"Are you ready to return to the fief so soon? Are you ready? Being a lord is not as simple as being a soul master."
Xue Qinghe said with concern.
"It's ready, thank you His Royal Highness for your concern."
Bai Ge smiled.
"Oh! I almost forgot, you are not an ordinary person. The Dragon Snake Clan, the Bilin Clan and the Nine Heart Begonia Clan are all under your command now. You should not lack talents under your command."
Xue Qinghe shook his head amusedly.
"But you can still write to me if you have something to do. As long as I can do it, I will definitely come to help you even if you are thousands of miles away."
Xue Qinghe said solemnly.
"I see, thank you His Royal Highness for your concern."
Bai Ge nodded.
……
As soon as he left the royal hunting ground, Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang chased after him. Looking at Bai Ge, Huo Wu said with some embarrassment, "Well, Bai Ge, I'm sorry, we didn't talk just now."
"It's okay, I can understand this."
Bai Ge smiled indifferently.
Xue Qinghe has always wanted to recruit him, and it is expected that he is willing to stand up for him, and Xue Qinghe also has the identity and status to argue with Prince Xue Xing, but Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu are different.
Although the two are genius soul masters, their status is too different from Prince Xue Xing's after all. Whether they dare not or have no ability, Bai Ge can understand.
Moreover, Bai Ge could see the purpose of Prince Xue Xing, but it was just to add to his obstacles. Even if Xue Qinghe didn't stand up for him, Emperor Xue Ye would not say that he would not seal Heigangcheng to him. He would definitely not be able to explain it to Ning Fengzhi.
The reason why Emperor Xue Ye stopped Prince Xue Xing so late was just to sell his favor through comparison, and Bai Ge couldn't see this clearly.
Taking Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang together towards the direction of the Heaven Dou Imperial City, on the way, Bai Ge chatted about the development plan for the fiefdom, bluffing Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang for a moment.
For the construction of the fiefdom, Baige has various means from technology to economy.
How to develop business through science and technology, and then drive the economy, improve the living standards and income of the people in the fief, and the increase in the income of the people can increase the tax, and finally benefit the lord Baige, and Baige can invest money in the fief when he has money Development, going back and forth like this, and finally realizing the prosperity of the fiefdom is far from comparable to that of Douluo Continent when it still stays in how to collect taxes.
On the Douluo Continent, the main sources of income for noble lords still come from exploiting resources in the fief and collecting taxes from commoners in the fief. There are also some lords who will buy their own properties, but very few of them can develop and grow.
After all, just exploiting the resources in the territory and collecting taxes is enough for them to live extravagantly, and buying properties is only small, and they don't know how to develop.
If we talk about a fiefdom, the maximum benefit that the lord can get is 1, which includes mining resources and collecting taxes, then most of the lords on the Douluo Continent still know how to get as much as possible from this 1. But what Bai Ge thought about was how to turn this 1 into 2, 3, 4...even 10!
This is the fundamental difference!
After bidding farewell to Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, Bai Ge returned to the castle.
A few days ago, Bai Ge asked Meng Shu, Su Moshan, and Dugu Bo to start mobilizing talents in the family. Now that the fiefdom has been confirmed, Bai Ge is going to leave tomorrow.
Of course, Baige is not planning to go to Heigangcheng immediately. In fact, for Heigangcheng, Baige is only planning to use it as a resource mining point. What Baige really wants to build is a city from scratch, a new For a city, if you want to overthrow an established city, it is better to rebuild it.
The reason why Bai Ge left in such a hurry was that he still wanted to go back to Notting City in the border county, or the Holy Soul Village. You must know that Bai Ge hadn't seen Grandpa Old Jack for a year.
