Chapter 286
ps: Ask for tickets, ask for recommendations

There is no loyalty without complaint or regret in this world, and there is no reward without reason.

For the more than 2000 pounds, Edward spilled it without hesitation, what a joy!

The consequences of doing so are also obvious. This kind of reward before practice has won a lot of people's hearts for him.

In other words, most of the more than 200 people in front of us were born as civilians, that is to say, their families were not very rich, and such a large amount of expenses for going to the East of England really put them under great pressure.

This was the case for Lemiel, who was originally tense, but with His Majesty's generous gestures, he suddenly relaxed.

As mentioned earlier, he is from an ordinary family, and his monthly salary and some extra income are just enough to maintain the family's expenses. How can he have so much money to go to Cambridgeshire.

Therefore, before the trip, he came to the Royal Bank to provide a guarantee in his own name, thereby borrowing ten pounds, of which five pounds were given to his wife and children who stayed in London, and the remaining five pounds were for him to go to. All property in Cambridgeshire.

In this era, ordinary people would rather suffer a little bit more, and they would not borrow money.

You must know that at this time, most of the people who run the loan business are Jews. The Jewish vampire-like face has long been formed in the hearts of all Europeans. Borrowing money means that you have fallen into the abyss of the devil, and you can no longer escape.

More importantly, the lowest loan interest rate at this time is 50.00%, and other 80.00%, 90.00%, or even doubled are commonplace.

If you don't have some capital as your confidence, you don't have the guts to borrow money.

The reason why he went to the Royal Bank to borrow money was because he received his monthly salary from there and was most familiar with it; the second was because the interest rate of the Royal Bank was relatively low, the price of conscience - 50.00%, and he borrowed ten pounds , after one year, only fifteen pounds will be repaid, which is the most cost-effective.

And as the mayor of a hundred districts, without the same strict supervision as in London, the mere fifteen pounds can be recouped in less than half a year, which is simply a piece of cake.

But the Shang King on the high platform didn't know that his reward this time also reduced his family's business a lot.

The young guards had a cold face, two of them were carrying the box, while the other two were walking around, distributing the gleaming gold coins inside the box.

In less than 10 minutes, more than 200 people had finished distributing. As the king, Edward also consciously delivered his final speech and walked off the high platform.

In the carriage, Edward was sitting in the center, the soft velvet back was gently supporting his waist, but he closed his eyes with an expressionless face.

As a king, for the officials under him, it is to use rewards and punishments to firmly tie their hearts in his own hands, so that he can truly control the country.

As for Henry VIII, who was a high-ranking nobleman from birth, he naturally didn't have the leisure to win over these officials who were born as civilians.

In his heart, only nobles are the most worthy of wooing, and commoners have no qualifications!

This is not the case for Edward, he is the soul of a commoner, even though he has been educated by the royal family for more than ten years, but he is born with a sense of distrust for the nobles.

After all, the noble family has been passed down to this day. No matter how kind you are, it is impossible to grant fiefdoms like before. At most, there are a few manors. For those nobles who have been passed down for hundreds of years, isn’t it a drop in the bucket?

Therefore, for ordinary people, a little reward will be remembered in the heart, cheap and easy to see the effect, the most simple and fast.

Thinking that these hundreds of people are pouring into East England, if they are real talents, they will definitely stand out. At present, England is still relatively short of talents, especially in the local area, which is basically dominated by nobles and gentlemen. It is time Break this calm.

Thinking about it, Edward's face gradually showed a trace of cruelty.

To be honest, being a king in England is really aggrieved.

Don't be old, his power is boundless now, that is because the power of the nobles has shrunk, and the king controls the parliament.

When the strength of the nobles gradually recovered, the parliament would surely be out of control, and the power of the royal family would gradually retreat.

If the royal family of France still controls its own territory, it controls a large number of subjects, while in England, all the land in name belongs to the royal family, but except for some duchies and counties, the population under its control is at most 10,000 +.

More importantly, the English people pay special attention to the parliament. Even though this parliament has nothing to do with ordinary people, the English still trust this parliament as always.

Between the king and the parliament, England will not hesitate to choose the parliament, which began with the Magna Carta in 1215.

The parliament has always appeared among the people in the role of supervising the king, representing the name, which is what we call the people's hearts.

Therefore, when the capitalists have not yet risen and the aristocrats are in decline, centralization is carried out in a hurry.

A few months later, this group of people sorted out some contradictions, and after the second official selection examination, the 39 counties across the country will implement it together.

It doesn't matter how many people die.

A stern look flashed in Edward's eyes, and the king also needed to be ruthless.

Suddenly, he felt that the speed of the carriage began to slow down. It seemed that Whitehall Palace had arrived.

After getting out of the carriage, a girl with big breasts in a long skirt greeted her with a smile on her face.

"Your Majesty, Knight Alexander is back!" The girl moved parallel to Edward, her footsteps moving gently with him, her blue eyes fixed on his face, and said softly.

"Really? This is a big surprise!" Edward looked at the smiling girl, stopped, paused, and smiled.

This is indeed good news. The guards have not been away for a long time, which makes him a little uneasy as a king.

Now that he's back, he's back from a bloody battle. After seeing the blood, his combat effectiveness has improved a lot.

Afterwards, Edward started to walk again, but at a slightly slower speed. Just now, he saw a group of elders, and now the girl is by the side, and the fragrance is lingering, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Is there any other good news?"

"Ah? A letter from the Marquis of Northampton, saying that Kate and Brother Kate have been captured alive, waiting for your reply!"

Seeing the king's sharp and handsome face suddenly less than half a foot away from her lips, the girl suddenly became confused and blushed.

Fortunately, she also knew what her responsibility was, so she forcibly suppressed the shyness in her heart, and then said softly.

Edward stopped again this time, thought for a while, and said slowly: "Just execute him in Norwich! Use fire—"
