, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!
Noren and Svetlana, the two daughters, have naturally integrated into a new life. This time they went to Roseburg, they were not cautious and uneasy, and some of them had expectations for future life.
They were dressed in thick clothes, standing at the bow of the outstanding Aphrodite ship, standing beside Rurik, letting the increasingly cold north wind blow on their faces.
The two Ross fleets have turned, and nearly a hundred ships are escorted back home with amazing cargo.
As he set sail, Rurik learned how much food and leather the old man had obtained from the manor houses in Novgorod during his voyage in Sorgun in the autumn.
Eight hundred thousand pounds!
Oats from Novgorod are only 800,000 pounds.
This number will be moved by Lurik in the past, but now, forget it...
Novgorod is just a mixture of twenty manor houses. The object of the Rus people's blackmail is the pine needle manor that has the possibility of rebellion, and the white tree manor is open to those who are focused on support.
Novgorod is located on the shore of Lake Ilmen, and the population around the lake is more than that of Lake Mälaren. Even with the bad weather this year, the people in Mälaren provided millions of pounds of wheat.
"It seems that the exploitation of Novgorod is still too benevolent."
Rurik calculated the total amount of food that the Ross people would get this fall.
Novgorod was 800,000 pounds, Mellaren was one million pounds, and another half a million pounds was taken from Britain. This total of 2.3 million pounds of wheat is a gratifying and astonishing figure.
The situation is very good, that is, I'm still a little bit away from my hopes.
It is completely different from the poor weather that an unprecedented baby boom is erupting in the entire area under the control of the Ross people. This situation is most notable in the hometown of Roseburg.
"I'm afraid we will have 2,000 babies born this year! In the past, they deliberately killed many children because they could not afford many children. Now they have enough food to support them. They also lack entertainment. Of course, men are desperately having **** with women. It is an important entertainment for the family."
"If I have 10,000 people to feed, and guarantee that each person has a pound of wheat per day, I need at least 4 million pounds. It is difficult to achieve this, but now my population is really going to exceed 10,000!"
"Even if there is a big battle, I will die hundreds of young men. The population loss is far less than the number of babies born and the immigrant population."
Rurik thought about it this way. Even if the 2.3 million pounds of wheat was eaten sparingly, I'm afraid it will be almost finished by the summer of next year.
He hoped that the subjects of the Principality of Russ, each adult male and female could guarantee one pound of wheat and two pounds of fish a day, and children and the elderly would also be at least half a pound of wheat and one pound of fish. He felt that this should be the bottom line of the ruler's conscience. He did not know that this seemingly low nutritional standard had already made him enjoy great prestige among the people.
There are only a few brave and ruthless people who don't care about their own identity, they just listen to Rurik's exploits.
The broad masses of people, they simply follow the leader who can give them food.
In this era, population is productivity, which is equivalent to comprehensive national power, especially military power. The man’s duty is naturally to farm and encircle the territory, while the woman’s most important duty is to give birth.
If the Danish leader is really dead, Denmark is busy fighting for power and has no desire for revenge on the north.
The Ross people will continue to develop territories in the north, and the population will be peacefully exploded.
At least in Lake Mälaren and the entire northern world, the geopolitical situation has been completely stabilized. The Ross people did not ask for the title of King of Sweden, Ross is already an uncrowned king.
In this area, the overall geographical environment is still terrible.
Although it was going home this time, Lurik saw his Svetlana, thinking of the Eastern European world in his mind.
Novgorod is at least much warmer than Mälaren, and the number of local farmers is also huge. They must provide Ross with a steady stream of stamina.
Is it necessary to sail in Sorgon?
Why is it necessary to ask for tribute in the same way as Mingqiu? Why must the cooperative attitude of the local manor owners be necessary?
Kill these manor owners, split the manor, and dismantle all the manor population into small family units and become small farmers. The small peasant family is then put together into a brand new village, which is directly ruled by Prince Rus.
In this way, the native aristocratic system of Novgorod collapsed, and local leaders who might rebel were lost.
But how dare the people who have lost their leader say no to the monarch’s tax requirements?
But in doing so, it is necessary for the Ross people to come up with a basic bureaucratic team, which has allowed this more advanced model to run.
Rurik just thinks about it. Considering the current situation, Ross doesn't even have a clear internal system.
Wait a minute! Maybe one can be set this winter.
For this, Lurik had a new plan.
The fleet floated on the sea for four days, and it was precisely because of carrying too much supplies that it slowly returned to the fjord of Roseburg.
There is still some time before the sea freezes, and a large number of Ross fishing boats are swaying with the waves in the narrow Gulf of Bothnia. The boat dragged the fishing net and caught herring by luck. There are also some fishing boats going straight to the north. They lay nets on the river next to Fort Elon, fishing for local salmon on a large scale.
As in previous years, when the fjord was full of white sails, people flooded into the sea to welcome the return of the Sorgon fleet. This time, they saw an unprecedented scale of the fleet, the core of three "huge ships", leading a large number of cargo ships straight to the pier.
Compared with the large number of long ships in the past, these cargo ships are unable to wash the beaches. The people have long been broken to divide up the supplies at the suddenly formed beach market. The men are simply taking their wives and children to observe the grand occasion and hold tightly. The silver coin in his hand is waiting for the Lord Duke to open the market to sell supplies.
Just as the voyage fleet is rapidly transforming from a long ship to a heavy cargo ship, Roseburg's body has undergone earth-shaking changes after this warm period of development!
"finally arrived at home!"
Rurik, who was thinking about a lot of things, was inevitably tired, and he kept sighing with emotion when he saw the completely changed Roseburg built on the gentle **** of the mountain after standing on the bow of the ship.
Otto’s white beard allowed the north wind to blow, and he put his hands on his son’s shoulders and yelled deeply: "Your mother has been waiting for a long time. This time you bring back two women and see what she will say."
"Of course she is very happy. By the way, I have to look at Lumia in particular, me! I have to check her belly myself."
"Okay! Go and take a good look. Now I still can't believe it. That was the first slave I got for you, and gave birth to my first grandson." Otto really felt the fantasy of life. I just don't know whether Lumia will give birth to a boy or a girl.
The whistling wind in the ear forced Rurik to say loudly: "She is already a high priest, not a slave."
"Have you thought about your name?"
"what name?"
"The child's name."
"Think about it." Rurik shouted again: "Velika! Whether it's a boy or a girl, just call it this name!"
"Is it to commemorate Veria? Good name. Get ready, we are about to dock."
Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. Three large ships steadily berthed at the pier, and the rest of the cargo ships also berthed.
At the beginning of the year, Lurik had formulated a plan to expand the terminal, so it seems that the plan has not only been implemented, but has been over-implemented.
Check it out!
In addition to the trestle bridge of the Gould family's private wharf, as many as twenty trestle bridges stretch out to the sea, and a total of ten cargo ships can be docked on both sides of each trestle bridge.
No, some merchant’s long boats are already parked here. Many boats are **** horizontally. The beams of the sails are twisted to be flush with the center axis of the boat. The bows of the boats are aligned with the trestle bridge, thus occupying a small space and mooring. A large number of ships.
There is a very mild salty smell in the air, as is the case in a typical northern seaport city built on the hillside.
The Aphrora laid down the planks, and the people on board disembarked one after another.
"The end of the voyage is here, hold on to my arm." Rurik casually said to Svetlana, whose eyes were wide open.
The girl walked off the plank cautiously, for fear that one fell into the water accidentally, and she would pass through her and could not swim.
She stood steadily on the trestle bridge, and suddenly saw her companion Nolen, the Varyag girl jumped off the boat, as if she was not afraid of any danger.
Noren ran happily, eager to be pampered, so he hugged Rurik's neck directly from behind.
"Ah! This is Roseburg? It's so great! There are still walls and towers..."
"There are not only walls, but also many interesting places. Tonight, you two sleep in the palace, and that will be your home from now on."
Rurik explained this in two languages, but in fact he didn't know how his new home was built, he thought it was already completed.
Otto held the hilt in his hand, dressed as an old warrior. He was full of vicissitudes and accomplishments with his vigorous spirit and the deepness of an old man.
In front of Otto, Rurik was holding the hands of the two women, and the three of them were dressed in luxuriant gemstones, and their childish faces revealed determination and pride.
A completely uniform warrior followed closely. The white cloak was sewn with blue cloth strips, occasionally showing the chest, and the white chest linen also had two interlacing blue stripes.
People gathered on the beach, along the road to welcome the Duke's triumphant triumph. The current people still don't know what kind of great battle Rurik has gone through. They just saw the huge fleet return and their minds were occupied by excitement. They not only welcomed the Otto father and son, but also welcomed them to bring back the supplies that the Rus people could prosper.
At the critical moment, the girl high priest Lumia, with a helmet with antlers on her head and a wooden staff with precious stones, stood up.
They were followed by ten female servants of Slavic ethnicity from Rurik. Under the leadership of the Corvin girl Rumi, they wore a crown of pine branches on their heads and accompanied the high priest in plain clothes.
After a while, Niya also led Carlotta, Ella and Sepolawa to appear.
Judging from their clothing alone, they are obviously far more noble than other people.
Svetlana clearly saw that the people were evading spontaneously, and finally they backed away and formed a circle.
"A lot of beautiful girls, shouldn't they all belong to you...women..." she asked weakly.
"Yes, it's all mine."
Rurik's calm answer made Svetlana startled. Although she was prepared, she didn't expect her man to please women like this? Do not! Rurik, he is probably a lascivious. Suddenly, Svetlana felt that her rewarded position was not stable, or even precarious.
Niya's eyes were already crying, she opened her arms and looked at her son kindly: "Ruriek, come over, let me see you..."
Rurik walked straight, and finally let the old mother touch her forehead and kiss her cheeks.
She was excited, and she saw two girls standing quietly and smiling silently from the corner of her eyes.
"You..." Niya leaned on his son's shoulders and asked urgently: "Sell me, did you coax a woman from outside again."
"Of course, let me introduce it to you." Rurik turned around generously: "This is Noren, the daughter of the leader of Balmerk, and is the sister of Biyuni who came here at the beginning of the year. She is already mine. Woman. This is Svetlana, the wife my father chose for me."
"Oh, that's great." Niya waved her hand hurriedly, "Come on, both of you."
She stroked the cheeks of the two girls again, admiring her son as the greatest boy and the greatest man in the future, and also praised the beauty of the two brothers and girls.
However, his own man has an astonishing number of wives and concubines. Which woman would not be jealous?
Jealousy, that is true jealousy, but as a woman of Rurik, every woman has her own destiny.
Lumia held a wooden staff in one hand and stroked her belly with the other. She approached Rurik, took his hand again, and put it on her stomach.
Rurik couldn't understand this better.
"Have it already?"
"Yes. It's been six months now."
Rurik nodded, after all, just by looking at Lumia's current posture, even if she was dressed behind, she couldn't hide the fact that she had a big belly.
Her cheeks already showed the joy of being a mother, to be honest, Rurik didn't have the ultimate joy.
In the family of the Duke of Rose, every wive and concubine has his own destiny, and his children also have their own destiny.
The child born by Lumia ~www.novelhall.com~ will eventually inherit the antler helmet and gemstone stick representing the history of Ross, as well as the duties of the high priest.
But after all, she was her first woman, and she was also her, making herself a real man.
Ruriek now cares more about herself than the child in her womb.
Under the gaze of the people, Rurik, who had grasped the pure power and was the Duke of Ross, kissed the forehead of the holy high priest of Ross in public!
The people are cheering, and more are just booing, which is also accompanied by a large number of babies crying after being frightened.
None of this will affect Rurik, he leaned into Lumia's ear and smiled and said, "Tonight, I will accompany you..."
Lumia, she never dared to expect much. Now she feels that she is the happiest woman.
It is the intimacy of the two. In the eyes of the many wives and concubines of Rurik, it is really complicated, and this feeling is difficult to describe in words. Then... follow the roaring Ross people and laugh together.

Maybe one can be set this winter.For this, Lurik had a new plan.The fleet floated on the sea for four days, and it was precisely because of carrying too much supplies that it slowly returned to the fjord of Roseburg.There is still some time before the sea freezes, and a large number of Ross fishing boats are swaying with the waves in the narrow Gulf of Bothnia. The boat dragged the fishing net and caught herring by luck. There are also some fishing boats going straight to the north. They lay nets on the river next to Fort Elon, fishing for local salmon on a large scale.As in previous years, when the fjord was full of white sails, people flooded into the sea to welcome the return of the Sorgon fleet. This time, they saw an unprecedented scale of the fleet, the core of three "huge ships", leading a large number of cargo ships straight to the pier.Compared with the large number of long ships in the past, these cargo ships are unable to wash the beaches. The people have long been broken to divide up the supplies at the suddenly formed beach market. The men are simply taking their wives and children to observe the grand occasion and hold tightly. The silver coin in his hand is waiting for the Lord Duke to open the market to sell supplies.Just as the voyage fleet is rapidly transforming from a long ship to a heavy cargo ship, Roseburg's body has undergone earth-shaking changes after this warm period of development!"finally arrived at home!"Rurik, who was thinking about a lot of things, was inevitably tired, and he kept sighing with emotion when he saw the completely changed Roseburg built on the gentle **** of the mountain after standing on the bow of the ship.Otto's white beard allowed the north wind to blow, and he put his hands on his son's shoulders and yelled deeply: "Your mother has been waiting for a long time. This time you bring back two women and see what she will say.""Of course she is very happy. By the way, I have to look at Lumia in particular, me! I have to check her belly myself.""Okay! Go and take a good look. Now I still can't believe it. That was the first slave I got for you, and gave birth to my first grandson." Otto really felt the fantasy of life. I just don't know whether Lumia will give birth to a boy or a girl.The whistling wind in the ear forced Rurik to say loudly: "She is already a high priest, not a slave.""Have you thought about your name?""what name?""The child's name.""Think about it." Rurik shouted again: "Velika! Whether it's a boy or a girl, just call it this name!""Is it to commemorate Veria? Good name. Get ready, we are about to dock."Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. Three large ships steadily berthed at the pier, and the rest of the cargo ships also berthed.At the beginning of the year, Lurik had formulated a plan to expand the terminal, so it seems that the plan has not only been implemented, but has been over-implemented.Check it out!In addition to the trestle bridge of the Gould family's private wharf, as many as twenty trestle bridges stretch out to the sea, and a total of ten cargo ships can be docked on both sides of each trestle bridge.No, some merchant's long boats are already parked here. Many boats are **** horizontally. The beams of the sails are twisted to be flush with the center axis of the boat. The bows of the boats are aligned with the trestle bridge, thus occupying a small space and mooring. A large number of ships.There is a very mild salty smell in the air, as is the case in a typical northern seaport city built on the hillside.The Aphrora laid down the planks, and the people on board disembarked one after another."The end of the voyage is here, hold on to my arm." Rurik casually said to Svetlana, whose eyes were wide open.The girl walked off the plank cautiously, for fear that one fell into the water accidentally, and she would pass through her and could not swim.She stood steadily on the trestle bridge, and suddenly saw her companion Nolen, the Varyag girl jumped off the boat, as if she was not afraid of any danger.Noren ran happily, eager to be pampered, so he hugged Rurik's neck directly from behind."Ah! This is Roseburg? It's so great! There are still walls and towers...""There are not only walls, but also many interesting places. Tonight, you two sleep in the palace, and that will be your home from now on."Rurik explained this in two languages, but in fact he didn't know how his new home was built, he thought it was already completed.Otto held the hilt in his hand, dressed as an old warrior. He was full of vicissitudes and accomplishments with his vigorous spirit and the deepness of an old man.In front of Otto, Rurik was holding the hands of the two women, and the three of them were dressed in luxuriant gemstones, and their childish faces revealed determination and pride.A completely uniform warrior followed closely. The white cloak was sewn with blue cloth strips, occasionally showing the chest, and the white chest linen also had two interlacing blue stripes.People gathered on the beach, along the road to welcome the Duke's triumphant triumph. The current people still don't know what kind of great battle Rurik has gone through. They just saw the huge fleet return and their minds were occupied by excitement. They not only welcomed the Otto father and son, but also welcomed them to bring back the supplies that the Rus people could prosper.At the critical moment, the girl high priest Lumia, with a helmet with antlers on her head and a wooden staff with precious stones, stood up.They were followed by ten female servants of Slavic ethnicity from Rurik. Under the leadership of the Corvin girl Rumi, they wore a crown of pine branches on their heads and accompanied the high priest in plain clothes.After a while, Niya also led Carlotta, Ella and Sepolawa to appear.Judging from their clothing alone, they are obviously far more noble than other people.Svetlana clearly saw that the people were evading spontaneously, and finally they backed away and formed a circle."A lot of beautiful girls, shouldn't they all belong to you...women..." she asked weakly."Yes, it's all mine."Rurik's calm answer made Svetlana startled. Although she was prepared, she didn't expect her man to please women like this? Do not! Rurik, he is probably a lascivious. Suddenly, Svetlana felt that her rewarded position was not stable, or even precarious.Niya's eyes were already crying, she opened her arms and looked at her son kindly: "Ruriek, come over, let me see you..."Rurik walked straight, and finally let the old mother touch her forehead and kiss her cheeks.She was excited, and she saw two girls standing quietly and smiling silently from the corner of her eyes."You..." Niya leaned on his son's shoulders and asked urgently: "Sell me, did you coax a woman from outside again.""Of course, let me introduce it to you." Rurik turned around generously: "This is Noren, the daughter of the leader of Balmerk, and is the sister of Biyuni who came here at the beginning of the year. She is already mine. Woman. This is Svetlana, the wife my father chose for me.""Oh, that's great." Niya waved her hand hurriedly, "Come on, both of you."She stroked the cheeks of the two girls again, admiring her son as the greatest boy and the greatest man in the future, and also praised the beauty of the two brothers and girls.However, his own man has an astonishing number of wives and concubines. Which woman would not be jealous?Jealousy, that is true jealousy, but as a woman of Rurik, every woman has her own destiny.Lumia held a wooden staff in one hand and stroked her belly with the other. She approached Rurik, took his hand again, and put it on her stomach.Rurik couldn't understand this better."Have it already?""Yes. It's been six months now."Rurik nodded, after all, just by looking at Lumia's current posture, even if she was dressed behind, she couldn't hide the fact that she had a big belly.Her cheeks already showed the joy of being a mother, to be honest, Rurik didn't have the ultimate joy.In the family of the Duke of Rose, every wive and concubine has his own destiny, and his children also have their own destiny.The child born by Lumia ~www.novelhall.com~ will eventually inherit the antler helmet and gemstone stick representing the history of Ross, as well as the duties of the high priest.But after all, she was her first woman, and she was also her, making herself a real man.Ruriek now cares more about herself than the child in her womb.Under the gaze of the people, Rurik, who had grasped the pure power and was the Duke of Ross, kissed the forehead of the holy high priest of Ross in public!The people are cheering, and more are just booing, which is also accompanied by a large number of babies crying after being frightened.None of this will affect Rurik, he leaned into Lumia's ear and smiled and said, "Tonight, I will accompany you..."Lumia, she never dared to expect much. Now she feels that she is the happiest woman.It is the intimacy of the two. In the eyes of the many wives and concubines of Rurik, it is really complicated, and this feeling is difficult to describe in words. Then... follow the roaring Ross people and laugh together.
