From Baron to Lord

Of course, when it comes to strength, Boltzmann and the others could absolutely beat them to within an inch of their lives.

However, these goblins were brought by Allen, and they didn't dare to really go too hard on them.

Allen helplessly rubbed his forehead. He felt like he had brought a bunch of monkeys.

Seeing these goblins like this, Allen also felt embarrassed.

"All of you, stop it." Allen's words reached the ears of every goblin.

Instantly, the goblins all turned their attention to Allen.

Fortunately, the system was still reliable, and there was no awkward question like "Who are you?".

"Greetings, Master."

The goblins immediately didn't dare to mess around anymore and all stood in front of Allen.

Boltzmann and the others immediately breathed a sigh of relief and began to take stock of the losses.

However, there were still many goblins who were not well-behaved. You gave me a punch, I gave you a slap, and another felt that he had been taken advantage of and wanted to return it. Seeing that they were about to start fighting again, Allen could only ask, "Who is your leader?" The goblins immediately quieted down, and a strong goblin appeared and said proudly.

"Master, I am their leader, Monte the Jumper."

Allen was rendered speechless by his name, and his mouth twitched even more when he saw his smug look.

However, it was good to have a leader.

Allen said to him, "Well, Monte the Jumper, are these all your people?"

"That's right, Master, these are all the Jumping Clan." Monte the Jumper immediately puffed out his chest.

"I heard that you goblins are good at alchemy?"

"That's right, we goblins are born alchemists."

Boltzmann and the others also knew that these dwarves were goblins and couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

Heavens! These are goblins, legendary born alchemists!

Moreover, goblins had disappeared long ago, and now there were actually more than a thousand of them!

"Monte the Jumper, from now on, you will stay with these alchemists. You must listen to them and work together, understand?" Monte the Jumper pouted, "Understood, Master."

Seeing them like this, Allen immediately didn't dare to have any hope for them and could only hand them over to these alchemists.

Allen said to Boltzmann, "Boltzmann, keep an eye on them. If anyone is not well-behaved, just give them a beating."

Boltzmann had a constipated expression, but when he thought that these were goblins, he still accepted the task. "Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured."

Chapter 453: Arranging Everything

"Boltzmann, first make a musket and show it to me when it's done, then continue to improve it."

"Also." Allen thought of something.

"The turrets and shields from last time were very good. Since there is no shortage of manpower here, make another batch."

"Yes!"

Only then did Allen return satisfied. He suddenly remembered that he had promised Cecilmina to arrange a job for Cruz and Mina, but he had completely forgotten about them.

Allen was a little embarrassed and hurriedly returned to the palace.

Sure enough, as soon as he landed, he saw Edward waiting for him.

"Your Majesty, Lord Cruz and Lady Mina have been waiting for you all day."

Edward looked at Allen, "Do you want to meet them?"

"Yes, let them come to see me." Allen nodded, trying to remain calm.

Before long, Cruz and Mina arrived.

Cruz was fine, his face was very calm, and you couldn't tell anything, but Mina was a little unfriendly, staring at Allen.

"I have kept you both waiting. There is really too much work, and I forgot the time." Allen was still a little embarrassed.

"I wonder what kind of work you two want?" Allen asked.

Now, it's not that there are too few positions, but that there are too many. Allen didn't know what they were suitable for.

"We are willing to follow the Duke's orders." Cruz said with his head lowered, looking very respectful.

This was difficult. Allen frowned and thought for a while.

The three major legions are now lacking a suitable commander. It's not good to let Jackson act as the sole agent all the time.

However, Cruz is now a newcomer. Letting him manage the legion, no matter which one, I am afraid that some people will not accept it.

And Mina, a woman, is even more difficult to manage.

"Well, Cruz, now the Allen Kingdom still has more than 400,000 Dragon Blood Warriors. Are you willing to lead them?"

Cruz looked at Allen in disbelief. He never thought that he could actually lead those Dragon Blood Warriors.

After all, he knew that the 400,000 Dragon Blood Warriors were the absolute elite of the Allen Kingdom, and they also played an important role in the last war.

He didn't expect that he, a newcomer, could actually lead them.

Actually, Allen had no choice. Those Dragon Blood Warriors hadn't been managed by anyone for many days, and it just so happened that Cruz was not weak, so he let him go up.

"Your subordinate is willing." Cruz looked happy.

"Well, go down first." Allen waved his hand and let Cruz go down.

Suddenly, only Mina was left in the hall.

Allen looked at Mina and frowned slightly. It was really hard to arrange for her, a woman.

"How about this, Mina, why don't you manage my intelligence system?"

"Intelligence system?" Mina muttered, a little puzzled.

"Oh. That's a branch of my chamber of commerce, usually hidden through the chamber of commerce..."

Allen gave a brief introduction, and Mina's eyes lit up, "Sounds good."

"Well, I need you to spread the intelligence system to the entire Radiant Empire within a year, and to other three empires within three years. Can you do it?"

"Of course." Mina didn't seem to realize anything and agreed without hesitation.

"I will let the chamber of commerce fully assist you." Allen looked at Mina with a smile and didn't say anything. She would naturally mature when she hit a wall.

The next day, Allen summoned the ministers and prepared to make a big move.

Basculich, as the prime minister, was the first to report.

"Your Majesty, now the six duchies of the Allen Kingdom and Your Majesty's territory are on the right track. The residents have begun to work again, but since it is winter, production will have to wait until spring."

"Well, Basculich, what was the tax revenue of our Allen Kingdom before?"

"Your Majesty, the tax revenue of our Allen Kingdom is only 70%, which can be said to be very low." Basculich looked proud.

Allen didn't know what to say. 70% is still low? These are really some vampires.

That is, here, thanks to the help of magic, people are not starved to death, but their people must not be living very well.

"Basculich, from today onwards, all taxes in the Allen Kingdom will be adjusted to 50%, not only the Allen Kingdom, but also the Jomley Duchy, the Hilton Duchy, and the Lane Duchy must do so."

The tax revenue of the Allen Duchy had already been adjusted under Allen's command, so Allen didn't need to worry about it now.

Allen would not hoard wealth like others.

He knew that the best way was to enrich the people. Otherwise, it would be useless even if the country was rich.

… … … … Seeking flowers …

Now is a continent where strength is respected, but the principle is also common. Letting the people have spare money is the best way for the country to develop.

"Your Majesty, this is not possible!" Basculich, as Allen expected, was very excited. Allen reached out to stop what he was about to say.

"Alright, just listen to me."

Anyway, he is now the lord of a country, and there is no need to explain everything to others. Before long, they will naturally understand.

Basculich hesitated for a moment and still agreed.

"Your Majesty, I am naturally willing. However, the kingdom's tax revenue of 70% is the rule. If we change it privately, others will be dissatisfied."

Allen didn't expect this. Before, he was at most a duchy, and others didn't bother to care about what he did. Now that he is the king, naturally many people are paying attention to him.

However, he didn't take it seriously. If others want to say it, let them say it. "Don't worry, just do as I say."

Allen looked at Rogner, the president of the Sapphire Business Association behind Finance Minister Sparrow. "Rogner, how is the profit of the Sapphire Business Association?" Rogner. Hearing his name, he hurried forward.

"Your Majesty, now the Sapphire Business Association has spread to several other countries, and the monthly profit is about more than ten million."

"So much?"

Hearing Rogner's words, many people were surprised. They knew that the Sapphire Business Association made a lot of money, but they didn't expect it to reach this point. "Well, the final gift magic potion of the Sapphire Business Association should not be sold anymore. From now on, we will only use it in the Allen Kingdom." Rogner was immediately anxious when he heard Allen's words.

After all, the final gift is a major selling point of the Sapphire Business Association.

Moreover, this magic potion also occupies a very important department of the Sapphire Business Association, and the Sapphire Business Association has successfully entered the circle of nobles with this magic potion.

Hearing Allen say this, Rogner didn't know why, but he didn't dare to refute, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Allen didn't hide it from them, "This is a deal I made with His Majesty the Radiant Emperor. Our Allen Duchy will hand over the magic potion formula and sales, and His Majesty the Radiant Emperor will help us."

"He promised to let the Sapphire Business Association fill the Radiant Empire within a year." Several.

Chapter 454: Sapphire Business Association

"What?"

Sure enough, not only Rogner, but others also couldn't believe it.

That is the empire!

The most powerful country on the entire continent actually wants to help their Allen Duchy.

However, when they thought of what Allen said, that it was exchanged for magic potions, they were a little bit enlightened.

After all, the final gift is the proud work of a magician.

They even felt a little distressed, they shouldn't have taken it out.

However, one is the king, and the other is His Majesty the Radiant Emperor, neither of whom they can afford to offend. "Now you have to work hard to spread the Sapphire Business Association to the entire Radiant Empire, understand?"

Allen is very concerned about this, after all, in this way, he has a huge chamber of commerce, and other things will be much easier.

"Yes, Duke." Rogner nodded.

Allen thought carefully for a moment, and there was nothing else to do. "Basculich, I have decided to expand the army."

This Basculich did not object, and nodded. "Indeed, it should be so. The number of troops in our Allen Kingdom is too small, only a few hundred thousand."

"The armies of other dukes are more than that. Now the Radiant Empire has transferred 80 million residents to the Allen Kingdom, and the number of people has recovered a lot."

"Your Majesty, I suggest expanding directly to 10 million!" Basculich looked at Allen.

"Cough cough cough!" Allen was almost choked to death.
