Chapter 168: Rank 3 Promotion
As soon as Lin Yue said this, the ministers in the palace couldn't help but look at each other, and Arman VII on the dragon chair was stunned for a moment and then laughed loudly, "Haha, your joke is good, but it's not funny at all." ”
A minister stood up and pointed at Lin Yue's nose and sneered: "You are young and don't know what to do, you dare to blatantly talk nonsense in the Imperial Palace, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”
"Brother Tuhao, what do you mean?" Lady Elizabeth looked at Lin Yue with a worried expression, she knew Arman VII's temperament too well, if Lin Yue didn't make it clear, I am afraid that this matter would not be able to be put to rest.
Lin Yue gave Lady Elizabeth a reassuring look, and then stepped forward and said, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, if I want to spend money to buy a knighthood, what is the price?" ”
These words were even more shocking than the words just now, and the ministers in the palace were in an uproar, and some even pointed at Lin Yue and shouted: "Bold, the title is a glory given by His Majesty, and it is a symbol of the dignity of our country's aristocracy, how can it be measured by money?" ”
"Can't you?" Lin Yue looked at the official who spoke, and asked rhetorically: "Since you said that it was given by Your Majesty just now, is it not as long as Your Majesty is willing, why should I spend money to buy it?" ”
"You ......" the man was speechless, as if he couldn't find anything to refute.
It was at this time that the voice of Arman VII rang out.
"Boy, you want to buy a knighthood?"
"That's right." Lin Yue crossed his waist, completely unaffected by the other party's imperial momentum, and said with a smile: "Although I was promoted to a baron ten days ago, I think that a sesame mung bean official like a baron is too small, and now I want to be a bigger official, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
"Yes, of course!" Surprisingly, Arman VII readily agreed to Lin Yue's request.
"Your Majesty......"
There were also ministers in the palace who wanted to object, but were stopped by Arman VII with a wave of his hand. Arman VII then said to one of his attendants, "Someone has come and prepared me a list of the price of the title for this adventurer friend to see." ”
"Huh? Even a price list? This time it was Lin Yue's turn to be surprised, and he couldn't help but laugh.
After a while, the attendant really came out with a price list and handed it to Lin Yue.
"Boy, this is the price list of the titles of all classes in our country, including the price of the fief, you can choose to buy it, but ......" Speaking of this, Arman VII's tone became extremely calm, "If you can afford it, it is great, if you can't afford it, I have a way to make you adventurers regret coming into this world." ”
"That's that, that's." Lin Yue didn't listen to the other party's warning at all, but lowered his head and looked at the price list in his hand, not to mention, the official rank, the position of the title and even the fief, the tax and even the number of people in the fief, this price list is indicated one by one.
After looking at it for about a few minutes, Lin Yue suddenly raised his head and asked, "Why did you only buy a marquis for the title?" Isn't there a higher price point above the Marquis? There doesn't seem to be one here! ”
"Dukes and princes are only eligible for them if they have established great achievements, and this is indeed not something that can be measured in money." Arman VII said expressionlessly.
"OK, I see." Hearing this, Lin Yue quickly made a decision, pointed to the top of the price list and said, "Then I want the title of Marquis, as for the fief, I will choose the Emerald County in the northeast." ”
Damn, do you think it's so light to buy groceries?
The ministers in the palace vomited in their hearts almost at the same time, because Lin Yue's tone was too light, right?
"Do you want to think clearly? The price of the Marquis is 2,200,000 gold coins, plus the cost of choosing a province of 1,600,000, for a total cost of 3,800,000. Arman VII asked
"Now the question is, do you want cash or a card?" The aborigines (NPCs) in the game will use a special magic crystal card when making large money transactions, similar to real bank cards, which is why Lin Yue has this question.
"Whatever you want."
"That's good."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Yue waved his hand, took out 3.8 million gold coins in the system backpack and threw them on the ground, and with a flash of blue light, a golden mountain appeared in front of everyone.
One of the ministers still didn't seem to believe it, so he ran to Jin Shan, grabbed a gold coin, put it in his mouth and bit it, and then said to Arman VII: "Your Majesty, the money ...... Money is real. ”
"Really? That's really great! Arman VII's originally gloomy face disappeared, and he actually stood up from the dragon chair and said to Lin Yue: "Haha, Brother Tuhao, no, Brother Tuhao, Marquis, from now on, you are the lord of the Jade County of our Young Dragon Empire!" ”
As soon as the words fell, several new messages were refreshed in front of Lin Yue in a row.
System: NPC Lupin. Arman's opinion of you has been increased by 40 points, and he is currently close.
System: NPC Lupin. Arman VII grants you the title of "Marquis", and you receive the fief "Emerald County", which is 2000 gold per month (10 days of real time).
System: You get the Marquis Medal (purple)
System: Congratulations to the player Little Gluttonous Brother, you are the first player to obtain a county-level territory, have you announced your glorious deeds to the whole continent?
Lin Yue chose "yes", and after a while, all players on the server saw such a server-wide announcement.
System: Full Server Announcement: Congratulations to the player Little Gluttonous Cat's local tyrant brother for becoming the lord of Emerald County, obtaining the jurisdiction of all secondary cities in Emerald County, the Emerald County regional map is open, and his glorious deeds will go down in history.
System: Full Server Announcement: ......
System: Full Server Announcement: ......
"Damn, what did Brother Tuhao do?"
"Lord of Emerald County? What the hell is that? Is the Territory War Starting? ”
Although Lin Yue is now a "frequent visitor" of announcements on the whole server, and he will scare everyone from time to time, the sudden pop-up of such an announcement still stunned all online players.
"Then Your Majesty, can I still come to Fledgling Dragon City in the future?" Lin Yue asked with a smile.
"Of course you can, my favorite thing is a generous friend like Brother Marquis of Tuhao, come, there is a drinking party in our palace tonight, you must come then." Arman VII warmly invited.
……
Taking off the connector, Lin Yue couldn't help but smile smugly, he didn't expect it to be really successful, and he could buy a knighthood directly with money.
Now Lin Yueguan has been promoted to three levels, directly skipping the viscount and earl, changing from a baron to a marquis, and also becoming the lord of Emerald County. What this represents Lin Yue couldn't be clearer, and it means that Lin Yue will gain a huge advantage in the game that ordinary players can't match in the future.
You must know that players can only compete for territory in the name of the guild after the game opens up the territory war, and only the guild that wins the territory battle is eligible to become the city lord of some third- and fourth-level small cities.
However, Lin Yue became a lord in one go, and he also governed more than a dozen second-level cities under his command, so how could those big guilds who were ready to show their strength after the territorial war was opened up?
That night, the official complaint platform of "Realm OL" received a large number of complaints from players, many of whom questioned the legitimacy of Lin Yue as a lord.
Lin Yue, who was in a good mood, didn't know about it yet, but was about to call Liu Ziyu in the house to go out to eat and celebrate, but when Lin Yue walked out of the room, he smelled a fragrance.
