"My lord, how are your father's and brother's funerals planned?" Billy asked.

This is a question Billy had asked Lynn the other day.

The implication was to know how much the new lord was willing to spend for the funeral.

A more luxurious funeral can bring a lot of prestige to the family.

But Lynn wasn't going to do that.

As a ruler, he already has different consciousnesses.

A simple funeral can also appease the heroic spirits of the ancestors, and the most important thing today is to appease the orphans who lost their loved ones to the war.

Compared to the so-called family prestige.

Lynn wants to use this opportunity to win the hearts and minds of the people.

He asked rhetorically, "How much money do we have in our vault?" "

Old Billy said an exact number: "Three gold coins, one hundred and sixty silver coins, and seven hundred and thirty copper coins." "

"My lord, I think your father's funeral will cost at least two gold coins to be decent..."

"No need." Lynn refused: "My father's funeral can be a little simpler, and the extra money can be used to appease and compensate the orphans of those soldiers who died in battle!" "

Old Billy's gray hair was messy in the wind, and his expression instantly became complicated.

He obviously did not expect the young new baron to have such an idea.

Hit the beginning.

Billy didn't have much hope for the new heir of the Cassar family, after all, the previous baron had always groomed his brother as a successor.

And Lynn was just being trained as a knight, and it might be difficult for him to become a qualified ruler.

But now.

Billy felt like he was going to be impressed by Lynn.

After all, not many noble lords in this world would care about the untouchables in their territories.

"How much money is it good to give them? My lord. "

Lynn thought for a while: "At least each family should compensate for one silver coin." Although this compensation is not rich, there is only so much I can do at the moment! "

In fact, his motives were not as noble as Billy thought.

It's purely the idea that Lynn has memories of his past life, and even those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

That's why this is the case.

It's just that Lynn's understatement of compensation made Billy sturdy startled.

He trembled and reminded: "We have to compensate a full one hundred and thirty-six families this time, this is one hundred and thirty-six silver coins, in conversion, we all need one gold coin plus thirty-six silver coins!" "

Portia had only more than two thousand people, about six hundred and thirty households.

The average annual income of each household is about fifty copper coins, and the annual income of all people together is only more than three hundred silver coins.

According to the laws of the territory, the tax rate paid by each household for a year is 30%.

The Cassar family can get more than ninety silver coins from all their lords every year, and there is not a single gold coin for a whole year.

This time the compensation cost more than a year's taxes, and as a faithful steward, it is inevitable that I will feel a little distressed.

Old Billy mentioned: "Sir, maybe we can also lower the standard of compensation a little, how about compensating each person with fifty copper coins per household?" For them, it's a year's worth of income! "

Lynn shook her head and insisted on her thoughts: "Just do as I say." "

He wanted servants who obeyed his orders.

Old Billy still wanted to say something, but opened his mouth but there was no sound.

............

The next morning.

A cavalry squad of more than a dozen people, carrying the banner of the Norton family, appeared on the border of Portia.

Lynn knew that his new wife had been delivered.
