On September 16, the caravan of the Heyan family left Byronsburg and set off in the direction of Liangyue City. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

He Yan Zhiheng and He Yan Xin did not leave with the caravan, but stayed in Byronsburg, living in the same residence where the two lived before, and were served by the subordinates of the He Yan family.

After the celebration, the people of Bairensburg enthusiastically plunged into a new round of reclamation. Since the tools purchased through the Heyan family had already arrived, the leadership of Byronsburg began to redistribute the reclamation team.

Most of the people of Byrensburg had no experience in reclamation, and the tenants of the Yu family took on the task of teaching others, forming a land preparation team under the leadership of Yu Changnian.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On 19 September, at the suggestion of Yu Changnian, Maier convened an impromptu meeting in Byrensburg. After the meeting began, Yu Changnian went straight to the point and explained the reason for convening the meeting.

"Yesterday afternoon, a verbal altercation broke out between Lord Meier's subordinates and Lord Lingyu's subordinates over the division of labor, and after an argument to no avail, a total of 63 people on both sides had a physical altercation at the lumber yard, resulting in eight minor injuries. After the incident, the two sides reconciled on their own, shook hands, and returned to work, and the relationship seemed to be better. ”

"But this incident is a wake-up call. As the saying goes, if people have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries. No one is perfect, and it is normal for teeth to bite their tongues, quarrels, fights, and brawls. But that doesn't mean we have to encourage it, and with a population of 6,000 in Byronsburg, we can't guarantee that every conflict will be resolved safely. Therefore, it was proposed that Lord Hopemer establish the post of sheriff in Byronsburg, and that he should be selected to restrain the people. ”

Yu Changnian's proposal was approved by everyone, so Maier asked everyone to nominate a sheriff.

"Mistress Maier, I think Yu Mingli is up to the task."

Nami Layman's words made Yu Mingli, who was sitting silently beside Yu Changnian, raise her head in surprise, and Nami Lay Monk smiled gently at her before continuing.

"Yu Mingli served as the chief of public security in the 29th Village when she was in the 29th Village, and she has rich experience in public security, and all the large and small cases in the 29th Village can be solved by her hands. This person is upright and selfless in handling cases, and he will never favor anyone. And acted decisively, with clear rewards and punishments, and gained great prestige in the 29th village after only two years in office, and the lawbreakers were terrified everywhere they went. ”

"Oh?"

Maier was very surprised by Nanyi's evaluation of Yu Mingli, who did not give him the impression of a resolute and selfless sheriff, but a girl from a large clan who was easily shy, panicked when she encountered problems, and knew nothing about politics.

In fact, it's no wonder that Yu Mingli is here. The division of military positions in the 29th village is relatively vague, the chief of security is also in charge of military power, and the troops except for the garrison of Nami Castle are under the control of Yu Mingli. Managing an army is not a difficult task for Yu Mingli, but her specialty is law and order management.

The standing army under her command, with the exception of the border guards and the garrison of the outpost, is basically used as a security force. With no experience in warfare, she was only at the stage of talking on paper about the march and fighting. As for politics, although Yu Changnian often teaches his daughter about this, Yu Mingli just can't understand it.

Maier's knowledge of Yu Mingli mainly comes from her behavior when the evil witch attacked the twenty-nine villages. In fact, as long as you think about it carefully, you will find that the problem that Yu Mingli had to face at that time was quite large. Even if it was a change to Mel, he wouldn't necessarily be able to do better, at most he would just stay calm and not cry.

After thinking about this, Maier nodded slightly.

"Yes. Do you have anyone else you'd like to recommend? ”

"I recommend Changrong."

Xiaoxiao saw that Maier didn't make a decision immediately, and immediately pushed his own people out. Changrong is the name of Qicao Eighteen when she was a witch, and now she is no longer an evil witch, so naturally she can no longer use the code name of the evil witch as a title.

"Changrong used to work in the supervision department of the big bazaar, and he also has experience in public security. She is conscientious and steady, flexible in her mind, and very peaceful...... Uh, Mel...... My lord, I think you--you ought to call her to the council chamber and let her introduce herself. ”

Even now, Xiaoxiao didn't get used to using honorifics for Mel. She didn't know much about Changrong, but she had heard her talk about her experience as a witch maiden during small talk.

The Grand Bazaar of the Supervision Division at the Satoya Shrine is equivalent to the General Administration of Public Security, and it also has certain military functions, and is directly subordinate to the Great Shrine Maiden. The chief witches who serve in the supervision department must be the cronies of the great witch, and the witches under their command must also be loyal to the great witch.

"Yes. Kiki, go and call Changrong. ”

When the people are in a meeting, there will be a maid standing by them. Originally, Myer's three maids were supposed to be standing behind him, but now that the bird has not fully recovered, Xiaoye has to stay at home to take care of her, so now there is only one Kiki standing behind Myer.

Kiki received the order and left the council chamber with silent steps. About a quarter of an hour later, Changrong, who was in the midst of a tree cut down at the lumber yard, was brought back to the council chamber by Kiki.

After Kiki left, no one put forward any more candidates for sheriff. When Changrong entered the council chamber, everyone was closing their eyes and recuperating. These days of hard work put a lot of burden on everyone's body, and everyone has developed the habit of taking a break when they have time. After hearing the footsteps outside the door, everyone opened their eyes unhurriedly.

After Changrong came to the council hall, he saluted everyone at the door and spoke.

"Master, do you have something to do with me?"

Maier made a rule for his subordinates not to kneel at will, and not to degrade themselves in their titles. Having studied under Gray, he values human rights and resent the cumbersome etiquette designed to highlight the dignity of others.

"That's right." Maier nodded, "I've heard you worked in the Grand Bazaar's Inspectorate, but is that the case?" ”

Changrong looked at Xiaoxiao, among the people present, she only talked to Xiaoxiao about these things. Xiaoxiao squeezed her eyes at her, and then raised her head in the direction of Yu Mingli, and Changrong probably understood what she meant.

Mistress Maier seems to need to choose one of me and the eldest lady of the Yu family.

Although he didn't know what Maier was going to let him do, Chang Rong felt that this was an opportunity to show his loyalty and ability, so he said it truthfully.

"I did work for a while in the Supervisory Office."

"How long have you been working in the Supervision Division?"

"I was transferred to the Supervision Department at the age of seventeen, and I worked for five years when I was not recommended as a long witch, and another five years after being recommended as a long witch."

Changrong has worked in the Supervision Department for ten years, and he must have more experience in public security than Yu Mingli. However, in view of the fact that there was a situation in the big bazaar where the war witch beheaded people because of a trivial matter of sesame seeds, so that he Yan Zhiheng was scared out of "witch phobia", Maier did not dare to believe the witch's security methods.

"Did you kill a criminal during your time in the Supervision Division?"

"Although the Great Witch at that time allowed us to kill people in the Grand Bazaar, I didn't think it was necessary. I didn't kill anyone while I was on duty. It's just that once when chasing thieves, in order to prevent the criminal from escaping, he shot and injured his left leg. ”

It seems that Changrong should belong to the more moderate type when enforcing the law.

Maier nodded, and then looked at Yu Mingli.

"Mingli, you are not as good as Changrong in terms of public security experience, even if this is the case, do you think you can be qualified for the position of sheriff?"

Constable?

Changrong was stunned when she heard this, she knew that the power of this official position must be not small, so she immediately cast a grateful glance at Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao just smiled and nodded, which was a response.

Yu Mingli looked at Yu Changnian, then at Nami Layman, and finally fell on Maier. She knew that she had done very badly in Village Twenty-Nine, and thought that Maier was trying to persuade her to give up. But she didn't want to live up to Nami Jushi's trust in her, so after hesitating for a few seconds, Yu Mingli said.

"Yes, I can."

After Yu Mingli gave an affirmative answer, Maier looked at Changrong again.

"The current situation in Bairensburg is completely different from that of the Great Bazaar and the Twenty-Nine Village, and for a long time there will be no criminals in Bairensburg. During this time, the role of the sheriff was to mediate internal conflicts, not to solve cases and apprehend criminals. From this point of view alone, Changrong is very suitable for this position. ”

Maier's words made Yu Mingli show a disappointed expression, but the corners of Nami Jushi and Yu Changnian's mouths still kept smiling, because they knew that Maier must have something to say later.

"But in the long run, it's also important to deter criminals. I believe in Chang Rong's abilities, but her deterrent power is clearly insufficient. At this point, Ming Li can make up for it. So I think that the sheriff of Byronsburg can have two people, one and one pair. Changrong is positive, Mingli is vice, complementarity is insufficient, I don't know what you think? ”

In terms of public security experience, Yu Mingli is not as good as Changrong, and at this stage, Byronsburg does not need a deterrent to criminals, so the candidate for the chief magistrate can only be Changrong. Changrong was too gentle in handling the case, and it is too much to say that she had only shot and wounded one thief in her ten-year working time. Therefore, it became a matter of course that the stern Ha Ming Li became her deputy.

There was no opinion on Meier's appointment, which was unanimously approved.

This voting system was established on the basis of the initial battle meetings of Meier, Yishan, and Julis, and Meier found this way of voting to decide things so good that he adopted it in Byronsburg. So even though Meier is the only rightful owner of Byronsburg, he is not alone in this matter.

"That being the case, Chang Rong, I now formally appoint you as the sheriff of Byronsburg. Mingli served as the deputy sheriff, assisting Changrong in stabilizing the law and order in Byrensburg. The security forces can choose from among your respective subordinates, and each of them will choose twenty-five men, a total of fifty men, and they will be under the full authority of Changrong, and Ming Li will be the followers. ”

Although he has only been a lord for more than a week, Mel now speaks and looks like a decent, and his way of thinking is becoming more and more mature. It's just that his temperament hasn't changed much, and he has a strong taste of a trader and a bounty hunter.

"Thank you for your trust!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

After Changrong and Yu Mingli received the order, they solemnly saluted Meier.

After that, the meeting dispersed in a hurry. Xiaoxiao ordered someone to inform the whole castle of Meier's appointment, and Changrong and Yu Mingli temporarily put aside the reclamation work and selected the personnel of the security force.

The security forces of Fort Byron were the first multi-factional mixed forces in the castle. Twenty-five people from each of the Maier and Yu families withdrew from the original work sequence, and after a simple retraining by Changrong and Yu Mingli, they quickly devoted themselves to maintaining the internal security of Byronsburg.

During the training of the security forces, there were four verbal clashes and two physical clashes in Byronsburg, all of which were mediated by Chang Rong alone, and the two sides of the conflict were quickly reconciled. Changrong's ability to do things made Yu Mingli admire it very much, and the little unconvincing buried in her heart disappeared. Since then, Yu Mingli often asks Changrong for advice, and Changrong also likes this little girl with a simple temperament, and the two are also teachers and friends, and the relationship is getting better and better.

After the security forces were officially put into operation, there were fewer and fewer clashes in Byronsburg. People have developed the habit of immediately reporting to the security forces when they see people quarrelling, and some people who are distressed will come to Changrong for psychological counseling. The security forces, with a staff of only fifty-two people, became increasingly busy, sometimes tempting to break a second in half. In the end, Chang Rong and Yu Mingli had to apply to Maier to increase the number of security forces.

Seeing that the work of the security forces was indeed hard, Maier gave the two of them a quota of fifty people. Since then, the burden on the security forces has been somewhat lightened.
