Veselské panství zachycujeme ve 30. letech 16. Století na počátku ekonomického rozvoje, o něž se zasloužili představitelé rytířských rodů Bilíků z Kornic a Vojsků z Bogdunčic. Ekonomická situace se ovšem diametrálně odlišuje s příchodem 30války, kdy je veselské panství zasaženo prvními údery evropského konfliktu

In 1526 the new owner of Veselí dominion is Hynek Bilík of Kornice. He turned out to be a good landlord. He intensely cultivated fishpond and he founded serval largem ponds in the Veselí region. He also started the reconstruction of Veselí kastle in Renaissance style. In 1580 Tetour family gained the dominion from the childless Václav Bilík and in 1587 Jakub Srov. Vojska from Bogdunčovic became a new owner of veselí. This hitherto not very wealty landlord became an episcopal and capitular attorney. Hence, there was only one step to the royal attorney (1584) and Jakub sr. Actually lived to see his ennoblemenst (1604). Evenhe was a dutiful landlord and in his dominion he kept economy well. But 1605-1606 Veselí was affected by the rampage of the troops of Transylvania duke Štěpán Bočkaj. Jakub sr. Left his dominion to his nephew Petr Vojska who actively participated in the Estates Uprising. Due to these proceedings, his sons Fridrich and karel lost Veselí after the battle of White Mountain
