Those who were eager to try and couldn't wait to get out of the crowd struggling to get out of the crowd, they lifted the warm robe, and revealed the blue shirt with white background.

The First Banner team was brave and brave. They first gathered together to draw a line with other people watching the excitement, and then lined up in a neat line under Arik's orders.

A flag team is divided into four squadrons, which is actually four hundred teams.

The centurion restrained his subordinates. The blue-dyed feathers in the leather helmets on the heads of the four became the most eye-catching feature, which allowed the subordinates to see clearly and neatly lined up, and made Rurik see it clearly.

The originally quiet scene was slightly noisy again, and Rurik stretched out his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

How can the order be accurately conveyed to the gathered people?

Leurik made his wife retreat with a wooden face, and he stood alone on the platform, letting the wind blow his pony tail.

He fingered Conusson to get him on stage.

What can Conuson do? I couldn't keep things on my face when things didn't go well. I saw that the Duke apologized: "My lord, I never thought that all the residents of the city were here, and I was guilty for showing you the chaos."

"It's true that you are not doing things well. You call on the idlers to wait to go home. You will command some men and ask them to persuade others to leave. Tell the people that today's affairs only have something to do with the First Banner Team."

"Yes!"

Conusson stepped back, and Rurik pointed precisely at Carlotta, who had clearly come to watch the show.

The girl hurriedly walked up to the platform with interest. She smiled and wanted to say something, but what she didn't expect was an iron reprimand from the man she loved.

"Did I... let you come? All the people who took you back! Hurry up!"

"Ah? I..." Carlotta was at a loss for a while, and reluctantly explained: "I told the tribe. Everyone praised you as the greatest person, and they came to admire your face specially."

"Little mouth wipes honey." Rurik's mood eased a little, "Are you all satisfied now? Tell them to step back and stop staying in the cold outdoors. Beware of illness."

Rurik didn't want to entangle with the idlers, because a signing site inside the palace had already been set up, and there were already temporary maids and personal guards guarding them.

He watched Carlotta return to the team of the Ostara people, and watched those people leave reluctantly.

Now that a group of people have left, other people watching the show are consciously boring, and because of Conuson's persuasion, some people have begun to return home.

Disappointment filled the faces of many people. Women sternly scolded the children who ran around and went home, and some complained about why their elderly husbands were cowardly going to fight. There are also the Neoross from Sweden and the Slavs from the south who have joined the group in recent years. They really regret the difference between the princes, but what can be done? This is the territory of the Principality of Rus. Old Rus is the most noble talent, more noble than other Varangans, and the young fighters among the old Russ are noble in the nobility.

The sun rises high, and the cold in the morning is mostly gone. There is still no sign of snow melting in the whole world, and the city of Shilla Fort is a vast expanse of whiteness. As a result, the soldiers of the First Banner team put on wooden-framed sunglasses. In addition to their battle robes, it is indeed a beautiful landscape, even a little more. Bizarre.

The idlers waited to retreat, and Liurik reaffirmed his own opinions.

"Brothers! I will fulfill the agreement! Every one of you! One of you is entitled to farmland of 100 stika in length and width! You all have the right to grow wheat on your own land, and you all have the right to take your family with you. It was a good day to eat wheat last year..." Everyone knows these things, and now the prince preached it again to confirm it again.

"Brothers! I will sign a contract with each of you! Everyone will enter my palace and sign a written contract with me face to face. The sacred contract will be recognized by Odin, and you will also be blessed in the future. Attention to centurions! The first centurion of the first banner team! Take your men into the palace. Don't worry about others, all the contracts will be signed before noon!"

People burst into shocking shouts, the contract has not yet been signed, and even their own land has not been stepped under their feet, and their faces have been filled with the joy of harvest.

The once chaotic scenes restored order, and the soldiers of the First Banner Group stepped into the Prince's "Winter Palace" for the first time in awe-inspiring manner.

There are tables in the rather spacious hall, and a large number of contract documents are stacked. The beating flames of dozens of oil lamps made the whole hall extremely bright and at the same time brought comfortable warmth. The hundredth team entered here, and the soldiers looked around.

This is the palace of the prince, it is not spacious or even a little crude. This is very different from the description of the legend. The palace of the prince should be covered with bear heads, when there is a lot of gold and silver for decoration, and there should be a throne studded with gems, but it is not here.

There are bear heads, they are not many, and this is almost the only thing that shows the nobleness of the prince.

Indeed, the "Hermitage" in Shilla Fort is currently the residence of Rurik. Rurik likes this location, but doesn't like this retro longhouse-style building. Since Rose already has a three-story building made of wood, stone, and cement, the palace of the prince has reason to be built tall, and it is best to become the first building in Shilla Fort, so that her monarch can overlook the entire city.

The prince needs a splendid palace to show its majesty. Maybe it is extravagant and wasteful, but the current palace is indeed simple.

The land to be built here is temporarily set aside. Rurik has been daydreaming these days. It is this autumn that he can stroll through the endless wheat fields, watch the wind and waves, and touch the wheat ears by himself.

The dream can be realized, and it starts with today's "big contract".

When they saw the paper and the densely written text for the first time, the soldiers did not appear shocked. They were delighted and obsessed. Who is not curious about rare things? This cloth-like and wood-like thing completely surpassed their imagination. Everyone's psychological preparation was to take away the wooden boards filled with words. Unexpectedly, there are no wooden boards here, only the neatly stacked objects called paper.

The paper can be circled and tied with a rope, and it can be folded without being damaged. Its only disadvantage is that it is afraid of water. It's okay, I'm afraid the water is just a small trouble. Besides, charcoal ink painted on a wooden board will fade if it gets wet with a lot of water. It is necessary to protect the wooden board of the contract from water, so this paper should not be watered, otherwise, I am sorry for the neatly written Luen letters on it.

Both the Runic alphabet and the Roman alphabet are derived from the ancient Greek alphabet, and the two sides even have an insightful contrast relationship, and can be transcribed almost without barriers. Therefore, theoretically speaking, those who understand the traditional script can accept the Roman alphabet in a short time.

Western Pinyin text belongs to as long as you can speak and understand the pronunciation of the letters, you can spell it down with great difference. If the monarch further regulates the spelling method, one text is completed.

Each soldier of the First Banner Team's 100th team received a contract document.

Leuric asked them to read the few terms, and declared that because this is a reward, the recipient has no right to argue. After reading the terms, he feels that the terms are acceptable and he comes to sign a contract with him one-on-one.

He did not persecute his subordinates, and this contract was not mandatory from the beginning. After signing the contract, you must pay the eleven tax every year. It doesn't matter if you don't sign, it's okay to continue to be a fisherman.

They can weigh the pros and cons, and the land that the duke rewarded comes from the rebellious Pine Needle Manor that was crusaded down. They directly participated in the war, and they knew best that those fields were downright fat fields!

One of the main purposes of the old Rus people out of the cramped fjord was to find a warm and fertile farming field for two days. Before they knew the fertile black soil of Ukraine, the homeland of the Pine Needle Manor in Novgorod was the best fertile field!

After a brief discussion, the 100th team signed with Rurik one-on-one.

The soldiers wrote their own names, father's names, and their flag team centuries on paper with beautiful wild duck feathers.

Rurik also stated his full name here: Rurik Ottoson Principe.

Almost all the people in the Russian Principality have no surnames, or attribution names placed at the end of their names. The surname is something that an ethnic group must have to strengthen its status after it has developed to a higher level.

At the same time they signed the name, this issue became prominent again.

Just like doing a census in Novgorod by the way, the Slavs of the White Tree Manor have the same problem with their names. At least some Roths will use something to strengthen their uniqueness and act like a surname. What's more, some big families are already using real surnames.

Ordering the people to give themselves a full name, it seems that for the time being, this kind of thing cannot be rushed.

Rurik couldn't ask them, the fighters, to invent a surname for themselves immediately, so they made them write their identity information in more detail, and it's best to fill in their nicknames.

No, they were just as Rurik had estimated, a group of domineering nicknames popped on the paper.

"Skull Breaker", "Smashed Palms", "What the Gotland People Are Feared", "Whale Hunters"...

Every traditional Ross man has a nickname, and Rurik disdain to give himself some weird names. He has only one name, "Princip", the only prince in all of Ross.

In fact, among the people, he already has a series of names such as "son of god", "wise man", "relentless butcher", "conqueror of the sea" and "Danish nemesis".

If every name is turned into a medal, then Rurik will have a pair of extremely strong fish scales.

Smart people realize that the great value of this contract is that they and Rurik are a community of destiny in various senses.

It is the obligation of the contractor to pay taxes to the prince, and the contractor is also obliged to join the army to fight for Ross.

The prince also has his obligation, that is, to protect the life rights of the contractor and his family at any time, even in the event of a disaster, to ensure that the contractor and his family will not die of starvation, illness, or freezing.

Over the years, the prince has taken care of all the children of the brothers who died in the war, and even the vast majority of the children in the Ross headquarters have been raised by the prince.

The princes are young for their credibility and protection, and their contracts are signed happily.

The four centuries completed the signing very quickly, making Rurik worried that they didn't actually look at the terms.

They do, but there is no need to look at the terms carefully. There are not many clauses written in black and white. The whole article is in the vernacular. I really understand the meaning after just a few glances.

The people who signed the contract were asked not to leave because the prince had to announce a decision that would benefit everyone.

Rurik deliberately sold it off, which really drew the brothers' appetites.

The noisy hall finally calmed down, and a large number of contract documents were harvested. Lurik knew that he had also done a census of the soldiers of the First Banner by the way.

From the point of view of the name alone, there are so many people named after Bjorn, Harold, Ivar, Carl, etc. among his most capable subordinates. It is no wonder that these compliments are so popular that they are too similar to each other. Fortunately, their nicknames are varied and even bizarre, and there are many humorous elements among them.

They gathered outside to discuss a lot, but in fact, many people have already learned the news.

The news was revealed by Arik that the co-author of the prince wanted to buy the squirrel skins in everyone's hands.

Until now, no one wants to buy leather at the bazaar in Shilla Fort, and the market here is saturated. It's okay to force the leather to sell, and the kind of sell-off for almost no money can indeed get rid of all the leather on hand. But who would be so stupid to do this? Fifteen or sixteen silver coins. At this extremely low price, no one is willing to keep the price down.

Now the situation has become responsible. Many people originally planned to ship the leather to their hometown after the ice and snow melted, or to ship the leather to Tombstone Island and sell it directly to the local merchants. Even if it is difficult to reach the price of a silver coin and a leather, they definitely do not. Will earn less.

But now that the contract with the prince has been signed, everyone can't go to the West now. In addition, some brothers' fathers signed another contract with the prince, so he couldn't leave.

There are many reasons for not leaving. As the current backbone of the Principality, the First Banner Team must go to Novgorod to cultivate their own land, and they must also accept the call at any time to wait for the opportunity to attack the Karelians.

If the prince buys everyone's leather and sells it at such a low price, many human rights balancers will think that this is a helpless move.

Because many squirrel skins are simply peeled off from the meat, because there is too much leather, the fat layer under the skin can't be scraped off. This kind of leather will start to rot and smell into useless filth within a few days in the warm season. Fortunately, the leather is frozen as hard as a slate in the cold. Objectively, because the leather is frozen, it has a certain freeze-drying effect, and the leather loses water and is more resistant to storage.

Shilla Fort lacks the processing conditions for tanning leather. The veterans of leather processing are all in their hometown, and the must-use Glauber's salt is also mined from the stone piles in the mountainous area of the hometown.

What's very bad is that the most lacking thing here in Shilla Fort is stone. The nearby area doesn't even have a mountain, only the endless forest and endless squirrels.

Without glauber's tanning, the weather becomes warmer, and all the leather becomes worthless.

This fact is in Rurik's calculations. He deliberately did not talk about the purchase of leather first. After all the contracts were signed, according to the agreement, the brothers of the First Banner should pack their bags and ride on the reindeer sleigh to Novgo. Rod is waiting for spring ploughing. Rurik promised them that since a major immigration project is to be carried out this year, their wives and children will board the fleet and be reunited with the Novgorod family from their hometown. As husbands, they will establish a new home in Novgorod and welcome family members who come with softness.

It becomes very important to turn the wealth obtained from hunting into silver coins that can be easily carried.

Rurik finally came out again. He arranged four teams of centuries around the rammed earth foundation in the square to form a matrix, so that his preaching could be heard accurately by everyone.

"I heard that you have caught an amazing number of squirrels, but there are not enough buyers here. Now I am here, I will buy all your squirrel skins and other leathers! I now have ready-made silver coins in my hand! Right here You bring the leather in the afternoon, and I will buy it at the price of fifteen pieces a silver coin!"

Other words Rurik didn't intend to say any more, anyway, after the weather gets warmer, these soldiers who can't go to the west can't let the leather rot.

So Rurik really has a lot of cash on hand?

Of course not. The boxes containing a large number of silver coins are in Roseburg's hometown, and Rurik indeed has a lot of wealth in New Roseburg, which is the abundance of oats in the granary.

There is indeed someone who has a large fortune in hand, and that is the Asraki family.

Her father, Harald the Elder, has been actively reviving the family, and Ashraqi's mill business has brought new impetus to the family's revival. The biggest leather buyer in Sillasburg is the old Harald. He did this kind of business in Gotland. Now he is just returning to his old business, but he has lost too much. Because of practical reasons, it is no longer possible to deal with a large amount in a short time. leather. Besides, the processed leather still has to be sold, and it is impossible for Old Harald to consume all the silver coins on hand to stud. Even though the price of leather was extremely low, he announced that he would stop buying glauber's salt because of the exhaustion of the glauber's salt on hand, which further pushed the market price down.

Their family still has silver coins, and the number is actually quite a lot.

Maybe the brothers still have 20,000 pieces of leather unsalable? As a prince, Rurik ordered Asraki to take out fifteen pounds of cash. He was indeed forcing his second sister-in-law to do this.

However, Asraki was not a loss, and Rurik paid the price. He promised to take out 15,000 pounds of dried oats, and another 1,000 pounds of oats was considered extra interest.

The oats can be put in place in a few days, and Liu Rick got the silver on the same day.

In the afternoon, thousands of people gathered in Harvest Square. They saw the warriors of the First Flag Team picking up wooden poles, on which an astonishing number of frozen squirrel skins were **** with twine. Sled skin.

Paying the money in one hand and the goods in the other hand, people have seen the great Prince Ross buying leather on a large scale. The afternoon sun is very gentle, and onlookers saw the smiling faces of the soldiers holding silver coins and the brilliant light reflected by the silver coins.

It's not just their group who went hunting. There were a lot of Slavic immigrants who came to settle in the city in the early years. They were all human beings. After mixing with the Rus for a long time, the hunting skills of this group of Slavs have also improved.

By the end of the evening, Rurik had already planned to close the stall, and as a result, more than one hundred Slavic men were dragging their sleighs with some unsold varieties of leather on them, begging the Duke to mercifully buy them.

This was not in his expectation, and his guards also wanted to expel these people on behalf of the master.

If they were really expelled, it would be harmful to their prestige.

Rurik could ask in Slavic language: "If I give you oats~www.mtlnovel.com~ would you like it? Ten pounds of oats is worth a silver coin. The exchange principle I set is fair and stable."

Everyone nodded one after another, hurriedly offered their own leather, and sighed with a smile, "The gods will always bless you."

Rurik expected to purchase 20,000 pieces of various small animal leathers, but the result did not meet expectations, and in fact it was basically completed. The price is very low, and it consumes this and 18,000 pounds of oats as a whole.

If all these leathers are processed, can they be shipped to the Danes with two silver coins? Do not! As long as a large amount of leather enters, the local leather market will be messed up. They all have to dump at low prices.

Dumping is okay. Even if the price drops to one silver coin to two pieces of leather, you still make a fortune.

Is this a prince being a profiteer? Rurik didn't think so, because the Vikings used to do business. He is well aware of the core reason why he can make a fortune from this-the powerful Ross Fleet's own time and space Europe's first water transport capability.

The acquired leather will be transported back to the hometown as the Russian Navy enters, and can be tanned in a short period of time. It will not decay during the lifetime and become a tailorable leather clothing material.

The efficiency of logistics, which determines the success or failure of business, is equally universal in this era.
