king of ros

Chapter 244 Homecoming Trivia
After many affairs in the country, Rostislav Vladimirovich Rurik returned to his city of Moscow.

The ruling group in Moscow naturally prepared for the prince's return long ago, and Rostislav saw the huge crowd gathered in front of the gate of Moscow from a distance.

Undoubtedly, as the wife of the prince of Moscow, Zoe is naturally among them, and she is surrounded by high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Moscow regime.

But to Rostislav's great disappointment, Zoe held a baby in her arms, while little Rurik stood beside his mother.

Rostislav's disappointment was not due to anything else, but mainly because he regretted not being able to catch up with the birth of his son.

Gevalan stood behind the two of them inseparably. He was standing there like an iron tower in his iron armor. The captain of the bodyguard was still as serious as ever when performing tasks.

And more soldiers stood around their captain, alert to all possible threats.

When the Moscow princes and his entourage approached, the welcome music sounded all around, and Rostislav smiled at this. It was obviously Leo's handwriting, and that Greek loved such ceremonies.

In the midst of the music, Rostislav walked up to his wife, and after slightly hugging his wife and hugging the little Rurik who raised his arms high, Rostislav took his second son from his wife's arms , and he learned that his son was born a month ago.

And Rostislav, who took the baby, named the little baby.

"Volodary, your name is Volodary, Volodary Rostislavitch Rurik."

The reason why Rostislav chose this name is quite simple, because this is the name of his second son in history.

It can be said that Rostislav was completely lazy when it came to naming his child, and it was completely based on history. The main thing was that he didn't bother to think about it, so he used what he had ready-made.

At the moment when the prince gave the name of the second son, Leo, who was standing beside him, immediately ordered the musicians to play the cheerful music, bringing the happy atmosphere to its climax.

After the welcome at the city gate was over, Rostislav rode his horse into the city.

The citizens of Moscow welcomed the prince's return very much. Many people crowded the streets and waved to the prince, and Rostislav all responded with friendly smiles.

But for the people who followed Rostislav to the north, all this was quite novel to them.

Especially those Hungarians, it was the first time for them to see such a northern scene.

As for the immigrant Russians, there are also things that surprise them in this city, such as the red brick walls in the inner city of Moscow, which is a sight that is difficult to see in Ross.

Leaving the job of resettling immigrants and troops to Leo and Anwar, Rostislav went straight to the palace named after him.

Entering the audience hall, the Prince of Moscow sat on his most frequent seat, re-feeling the feeling of being in charge of the Northeast.

Originally, Rostislav wanted to take a good look at the records of Northeast Rus in the recent period to determine the situation during the period when his wife and subjects ruled.

It's just that not long after he gave the order, he was dragged away from the main seat by Zooey to the bedroom, and the two children were handed over to the maid to take care of.

The reason for the delay is simple. As a young and healthy woman, it is too uncomfortable to be away from her husband for half a year, but now that her husband is back, there are naturally some things that need to be made up.

Rostislav also readily accepted this. He was also a young man, and he had never had any desire for his wife's body, but this time Rostislav had completely miscalculated.

The next day, when Zoe was still sleeping with a satisfied smile, Rostislav grabbed his waist and picked up. Zoe was really... he almost couldn't take it last night, her husband was away for a long time Are women that scary?

And just when Rostislav thought the night would be over, he was ruthlessly pulled into the house by his Greek wife for the next three days...

When Rostislav finally appeared before his subjects, everyone was a little surprised.

Because their almost invincible Muscovite princes are now distracted and look overworked.

Of course everyone knew that it was caused by excessive indulgence, but they didn't know the reason, and everyone thought it was caused by Rostislav on his own initiative.

Some people also hinted that although young people are in good health, they still need to pay attention to restraint.

And he can't say anything, what can he say?Did you say that you have been suppressed by your wife for the past three nights?He, Rostislav, also wants to save face.

After coughing, he signaled everyone not to care about the complicated matters, and returned the matter to the current meeting. After he returned to Northeast Ross, he had a lot of things to do.

The first thing is to summarize the quantities of various raw materials produced in Northeast Ross in the past six months, and put them into the prepared sacks after the prince confirms them, and these sacks are then sealed with the seal of the prince's symbol.

After all this is done, these things will be sent to Kyiv, where they will be checked and accepted, and then they will be sold to Constantinople in the south by the Grand Duke of Kyiv's large fleet, and the profits after the sale will be made by The princely garrison in Kyiv was taken back and sent back to Moscow.

This is how the ancient Varangian-Greek road works, and it is the basis of commercial Rus. Countless Rus cities collect all kinds of supplies like this, and then transport them to Kyiv, and the Grand Duke of Kyiv will take them. Unify the sales to the south, and then bring back the profits and distribute them to everyone.

At the same time, this is also the root cause of the maintenance of the Ross country. It is these commercial profits that unite many city-states on this land.

This income is still an important part of Moscow's finances. Although the princes of Moscow are now working hard to carry out the agricultural Rusization efforts in Northeast Russia, that is, to change the majority of income from commerce to agriculture, but after doing these years, In fact, the effect is minimal.

Don't look at Rostislav's flourishing construction of towns and villages in Northeast Ross, but to this day, he still spends more than he earns by doing these things.

Had it not been for his reform of the guilds in Moscow, which established the source of growth for the city's handicraft industry and brought economic growth to the city, plus the gold and silver he obtained from the battle, Moscow's finances would have gone bankrupt long ago.

The Rusticization of agriculture is not an easy task. Historically, it took hundreds of years to complete this task. I don’t know how much manpower and material resources were spent during this period.
