The Defeated Dragon - Chapter 573

[Chapter five hundred and twentieth the name of the lord]

“What’s this?”

“corn.”

“What kind of spirit is there in corn?”

“Mickey.”

On the boulders that divide the fields, a group of serfs in patched clothes gather to drink water, eat bread, and dip them in peanut butter.

The clerk, Mark, whose clothes were not patched, was holding a stick, pointing at the corn seeds on the ground, and questioning the group of serfs.

This is field teaching time.

Since most of the new serfs are from the Eagle Kingdom, they can only speak wind and not snake.

In order to increase the sense of belonging and facilitate communication, the Lord has stipulated that the official language of the territory is Snake, and everyone must learn Snake for daily communication – only the knights need to learn Snake and Wind at the same time.

Mark’s wind language is not very good. He only knows a few words, which he learned from Mr. Grandet.

In fact, his snake writing is not very good, he can only read and speak, but not write.

However, as long as he taught the serfs the everyday language, his level was barely enough.

It is spring ploughing season.

It is impossible for serfs to have a fixed time to learn snake writing, so Mr. Grandet suggested to the lord to use the rest time of serfs to arrange teaching reasonably.

The lord agreed, and the clerks who were in charge of teaching had to rush to the field every day and go down to the fields with the serfs.

Many clerical officials sighed and managed to mix up the administrative work, but they still couldn’t do without the mud.

But Mark didn’t complain.

Because he is ambitious.

“You have to remember, Mickey, it’s the Lord’s third elf, the corn elf!” Mark shouted loudly, otherwise the serf would not be able to concentrate at all and listen to what he was saying, “Now you tell me, What is the name of the lord!”

“tulip!”

“Black Horse Island!”

“Sky Knight!”

“The descendant of the great Tulip family, the Viscount of Dark Horse Island who rules everything, the sky knight Liszt Tulip!” The serfs skillfully called out the standard snake text.

This is the snake text that they have been taught since they first came to Heima Island.

At that time, the phrase “Knight of the Sky” was not yet known. After learning that Liszt was promoted, the officials immediately added this title to the name of the lord.

There is no doubt that this method of teaching is rude, inferior, simple and lame brainwashing.

Every day the serfs were taught by the clerks who repeated these slogans repeatedly.

When repeated once or twice, it may not have any effect, and may even cause resentment.

But after thousands of times, these contents will be deeply imprinted in everyone’s mind, beyond doubt.

In fact, Liszt is not very keen on this kind of propaganda. He knows that strength is the first condition to ensure the loyalty of the territory.

But officials are willing to flatter and brainwash the people in this way, and he has no reason to stop them. He can’t shake his own rule.

As a modern person, he is very aware of the importance of public opinion – commonly known as the construction of spiritual civilization.

Seeing the uniform slogans of the serfs, Mark was very satisfied. This was the result of his teaching during this period.

He was assigned to a farmland area in Grain Town, where he was responsible for teaching snake text to the serfs who cultivated the farmland.

Compared with other clerical officials, he takes every teaching time seriously.

Not even eating time.

At this time, I saw that the serfs taught by myself were obviously more than the serfs taught by others.

He was looking forward to it in his heart: “The lord will commend the officials who worked hard during the spring ploughing… If I work so hard, I will definitely be rewarded. After the spring ploughing is over, I will definitely be promoted, from ordinary clerical officer to cultural officer. The clerk… maybe he will be valued by a supervisor, and he will directly choose me as his assistant!”

The official system of Heima Island is a new system after Liszt’s reform. It generally follows the previous administrative system, but it is more subdivided and clear.

Compared with the past, there were only a few supervisors, plus a group of clerical staff, a chaotic and vulgar system.

The current official system is very clear.

Take the town office as an example,

The lowest level is a “clerical clerk” similar to the establishment of a career, responsible for various errands and chores; a “department clerk” with a formal establishment is mainly responsible for the specific affairs of each department; a further promotion is quite “Assistant in charge” chosen by officials.

These three levels belong to the “official” class.

The real “officer” is the “department director” of the town, also called the “office officer”.

Depending on the direction of development of each town, the number and functions of the affairs officers are also different.

Service officers generally include administrative officers, treasurers, defense officers, legal officers, cultural officers, and diplomats, which are permanent affairs officers of other lords’ territories.

In Heima Island, there are additional service officers such as insect officers, maritime officers, traffic officers, construction officers, and fishery officers.

All affairs officers are responsible to the advisors of the town.

However, after the port town is upgraded to a port city in the future, a set of city officials will be formed to manage all the towns.

The city’s affairs officer, and the town’s advisor, double leading the town’s affairs officer.

In order to avoid the formation of consultants, and balance the power of officials.

Mark didn’t dare to hope that he could become a service officer. After all, the service officer’s requirement was a trainee knight, and he was just a commoner who had not practiced martial arts.

His greatest wish is to become an assistant to the clerk, and then to marry a beautiful wife.

Just as he was fantasizing about his success and teaching snake writing, a group of people suddenly came over on horseback riding a small road in the field in the distance.

It wasn’t until recently that Mark suddenly realized that it was Mr. Grandet, the cultural officer of the port town, who was highly valued by the lord and led the teaching of all snake and wind language in the territory.

He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: “Mark, the clerk, I have seen the cultural officer!”

“Mark, I remember you. When I was in class, you were very serious.” Grandet got off his horse and identified it carefully, as if he recognized Mark.

Mark suddenly trembled with excitement: “It is an honor for Mark to be remembered by the cultural officer!”

Grandet nodded, in fact he didn’t remember who Mark was at all.

When the Black Horse Island was built, the Administration Bureau urgently recruited a large number of clerical staff to conduct pre-job training. There must be hundreds of people: “I am here to randomly check the teaching progress of your clerical staff, Mark, let all the civilians get ready.”

“Yes, cultural officer!”

…

Spring ploughing work, arrange it.

Liszt didn’t pay any more attention.

He rushed back to Huahua Town the next day. Since the potion had been eaten up by the little fire dragon, he had to buy a batch again through the channel of Tulip Castle.

This would cost thousands of gold coins.

What’s even more depressing is that the little fire dragon obviously won’t be destroyed so easily. When it wakes up from its chest, it is screaming for food and drink.

If it wants to grow, it has to consume more resources, and potions are only one of them.

I am afraid that the potion money of several thousand gold coins a month cannot be beaten.

Then Liszt, as a knight in the sky, had a lot of money for taking drugs and eating meat every day.

“Just relying on the output of Heima Island is too laborious. If it weren’t for the huge profits from liquor and glass, I might not be able to support my own cultivation… I really hope that the development order will come sooner. Lots of loot, subsidized consumption.”

At this stage, I can only live by digging and searching.
