The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 950: Cake Sharing Conference

Roland never thought of following the trajectory of history. If he really followed history, part of the territory of the Kingdom of Raglan would be legally claimed by Aragorn. Although Aragorn, as a wise and virtuous king, would definitely give that part of the land to Roland after the War of the Ring, just like the former king of Gondor gave the land to Rohan! But that was not what Roland wanted!

Although it's a bit double standard, Roland doesn't want his subordinates to play the game of "whoever has the most power and the strongest army will rule the country", but it doesn't mean that Roland himself doesn't play it... And you can tell what Roland's series of layouts are for by just opening the map. Although Roland is a political novice, he is extremely aware of how precious the inheritance from Earth is! History tells us that it is impossible for two adjacent world powers to exist on the same continent at the same time! The rise of one side must be accompanied by the decline of the other side, otherwise there will only be endless wars!

But you expect Roland to bow to Aragorn? Pah! Isn't Roland showing you a Han family smoke in the northeast, the Han generals leave their homes to destroy the remaining bandits? Just after the War of the Ring, Roland is going to "promote" Aragorn's coalition forces! What level can make the descendants of the Dragon God and the Dragon Emperor of the Empire bow to him? With that not-so-thin bloodline?

"Develop quietly, don't show off!" Roland waved his hand. If the continuous increase in his high-end combat power made Roland arrogant, then the last words of the Frost Dragon King Assata were enough to make Roland sweat! Come to the Middle-earth stage if there is work to do! The representative of shallow water and many turtles! The shadows of the gods are still lingering in the world! Is there anything more terrifying than this?

(Roland: I fight God? A noble vacation?)

"I understand!" Kaslo nodded to Roland. "King Lagrango! Everyone is struggling in pain, only you are quietly making progress! Hajilan! You make the other kings of the North too sad!"

……

"Are you done?" Nix put down the half-embroidered dragon robe in her hands, raised her head and smiled at Roland.

"Well, is this for me? Wow! You have such a skillful hand?" Roland hugged Nix's waist lovingly and stroked her ears gently.

"Stop messing around, or the embroidery will get crooked... My Lord, you don't want to go out to meet people wearing a crooked dragon, do you?" Nix rubbed Roland's chin with her head and snorted.

"Tsk!" Roland raised his eyelids. Could it be that his wife was from Japan? Why was she so angry? Lord of the Rings wasn't a Japanese anime after all!

"Okay, let's get down to business. The kingdom is now basically on the right track. The Rapids Avenue has been connected, and the kingdom's territory is finally connected!" Nyx said with relief, leaning in Roland's arms.

"Well, thank you, Nyx, my love!" Roland hugged Nyx and caressed her waist lovingly.

"Why should you thank me? If you want to thank someone, thank the subjects of the kingdom. I didn't go to carry bricks... But you should really thank old man Radil! He almost became a bricklayer because of the Rapids Avenue..." Nyx seemed to have thought of something, and quickly straightened up and said to Roland.

"Let's put that aside for now! The key now is to build the framework of the kingdom! Otherwise, we will be no different from a makeshift team!" Roland estimated that the handsome readers outside the screen had already started complaining that after nearly a thousand chapters, the kingdom was still a makeshift team.

In the past, it was difficult to implement government orders without doing these things, after all, cities communicate through roads! Now that the Swift Flow Avenue has been repaired, it is natural to integrate the resources of the kingdom! What? Why don’t you use the Swift Flow River for river transportation? Good question! Aquatic monsters will give you the answer! For a ship without an engraved dispelling magic circle, sailing in the Swift Flow River is no less than playing Minesweeper! If you sweep a high-level monster, the entire fleet can be offline!

"Yeah!" Nyx looked at Roland's serious eyes and nodded subconsciously.

"Let's go! Gather all the people! Let's have a meeting!" Roland patted Nyx's head and said calmly.

……

"Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted Roland with their hands on their chests.

"Are all the people here? Forget about the children!" Roland looked at Duke Joltea.

"We're all here!" Duke Joltea looked around and nodded to Roland.

"Okay, let's cut to the chase now that everyone is here. Now that the Rapids Avenue has been built, it's time for the kingdom to enter a new era! When the kingdom was just starting out, everything could be kept simple, but now we need rules and regulations!" Roland nodded to Duke Joltea. "Yes, Your Majesty, it's time to differentiate between court nobles and fiefdom nobles, and civil and military officials need to perform their respective duties!" Duke Joltea immediately took over Roland's words as soon as he heard what Roland said.

"We'll talk about the fiefdom later. After all, the kingdom doesn't have much ability to resolve the fiefdom issue right now! But it doesn't mean that the kingdom will forget everyone's contributions. Our goal has always been the revival of the empire! And I, Roland, will not enjoy this glory alone!" Roland stood up and set the tone.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Others also stood up and joined in on the gesture. After all, when else could they show their political stance?

Amid the crowd's shouts of "Long live the emperor", Roland waved his hand to silence the flattery, then turned his face serious and started to talk business.

"I have promised the post of Prime Minister of the Kingdom to Duke Yun Feng! Normally, the parliament should be convened by the Prime Minister, but I have stepped in this time!" Roland joked. In fact, he was implicitly reminding Duke Joltea that most of the prime ministers in history came from the Empire's Double Fist Family. As the right-hand man of the empire, Roland still needed to appease them even if they were down and out now.

"Duke Jolstea will serve as the Archon of the Kingdom!" As compensation, Roland gave the position of the first person under the Prime Minister to Duke Jolstea. If the Prime Minister is second only to the two people in the kingdom, then the Archon of the Kingdom is the person who represents the will of the royal family and walks the kingdom!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Duke Joltea bowed and thanked Roland, but his expression was very calm. After all, the Double Fist Family has supported the royal family for so many years just because the royal family gave them a share of the cake!

"Marquis Al-Tigrand Franz! The Minister of Finance... I leave it to you! Don't let me down!" Roland paused and said with a sullen face. After all, the Franz family had a history of taking advantage of the situation and the small nobles jointly filed a complaint!

"Your will is my direction!" Marquis Al-Tigerand Franz humbly bent down and was about to kiss Roland's instep.

"Get lost!" Roland kicked the flattering guy away and continued speaking.

"Is there any objection to Adolf Heinrich being appointed Minister of Magic?" Roland raised his eyelids.

"Okay then! Next! The Minister of the Kingdom's Engineering Department will be His Excellency Radil. By the way, congratulate him on his advancement to the fifth level for me!" Roland did not forget old man Radil who was mixing mortar at the construction site.

"The Minister of Medicine will be His Excellency Charlie Pross! Congratulations on being elected Bishop! The Chief Medical Officer will be Ms. Ivy, and she will be your subordinate and obey your orders!" Roland nodded to Charlie Pross.

"May the Dragon God bless you and me!" Charlie Pross said respectfully, touching his chest.

"..." Roland gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"Baron Lance is appointed as the governor of Pingnan! He is in charge of the three cities of Pingnan, Beidu and Longya!" Roland continued.

"Darian Nightblade is the commander of the imperial carriages! He is in charge of the secret guards!" Roland looked around but could not find Darian Nightblade.

"Where are the people?" Roland frowned.

"Your Majesty, I am here!" The voice of Darien Nightblade suddenly came from behind.

"Your dad! He scared me to death!" Roland shuddered.
