"What is this?"

"Corn. ”

"What kind of elf does corn have?"

"Mickey. ”

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

Mark, a clerical clerk with no patches on his clothes, was holding a stick and pointing to the corn seeds on the ground, asking the serfs.

This is field teaching time.

Since most of the new serfs are from the Eagle Kingdom, they can only speak in the wind and not in snake language. In order to increase the sense of belonging and ease of communication, the lord has made the official language of the realm snake script, and everyone must learn the snake script for daily communication - only the knight class needs to learn both snake script and wind language.

Mark's wind language is not very good, only a few words, and he learned it from Mr. Grandet.

In fact, his snake writing is not very good, he can only read and speak, but cannot write. However, if he only taught the serfs the daily language, his level was barely enough.

It's spring ploughing season.

It was impossible for the serfs to have a fixed time to learn the snake script, so Mr. Grandet proposed to the lord that the serfs should take advantage of the rest time to arrange their teaching. The lord agreed, and the clerks in charge of teaching had to go to the fields every day and go down to the fields with the serfs.

Many clerical clerks sighed and sighed, and finally mixed up the signing work, but the result was still inseparable from the mud.

But Mark didn't complain.

Because he is ambitious.

"Remember, Mickey, it's the lord's third elf, the corn elf!" called Mark, who would not have paid attention to what he was saying, "now tell me what your lord's name is!"

"Tulips!"

"Dark Horse Island!"

"Sky Knight!"

"The heir of the great Tulip family, the Viscount of Dark Horse Island, the Sky Knight Liszt Tulip!" the serfs skillfully shouted the standard snake script.

This is the snake script they have been taught since they first came to Dark Horse Island.

At that time, there was no such thing as "Sky Knight", but when it was later learned that Liszt had been promoted, the officials immediately added the title to the name of the lord.

There is no doubt that this kind of teaching method is a crude, inferior, simple, and lame brainwashing. Every day the serfs were taught clerical clerks who repeatedly mentioned these slogans. When repeated twice, it may not have much effect, and may even cause disgust.

But after a thousand times, everyone's mind will be deeply imprinted with these contents, and there is no doubt about it.

In fact, Liszt is not very keen on this kind of propaganda, he knows that strength is the first condition to ensure territorial loyalty. But the official is willing to use this way to pat himself on the back and brainwash the people, and he has no reason to stop it, and he can't shake his rule by himself.

As a modern person, he is well 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, which was the result of his teaching during this time. He was assigned to a farmland area in Grain Town, where he was responsible for teaching snake language to the serfs who farmed the farmland. Compared with other clerical clerks, he takes every teaching time seriously.

I don't even miss the time to eat.

At this time, seeing that the serfs who taught themselves were obviously more standard than the serfs taught by others, the snake pronunciation standard and the snake vocabulary were more.

He was looking forward to it: "Your Excellency will commend the officials who work hard during the spring ploughing period...... I will definitely be rewarded for my hard work, and after the spring ploughing, I will definitely be promoted, from an ordinary clerical clerk to a cultural scribe...... Maybe some supervisor will value me and choose me as an assistant!"

The official system of Heima Island is a new system after Liszt's reforms, which generally follows the previous administrative system, but is more subdivided and clear.

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

The current official system is very clear.

Taking the small town administration as an example, the lowest level is the "clerk" who is similar to the establishment of a business, and is responsible for all kinds of errands and miscellaneous work; the next level is the "department clerk" with a regular establishment, who is mainly responsible for the specific affairs of each department; and the next level is the "assistant in charge" who is equivalent to the official candidate.

These three levels all belong to the "official" class.

The real "official" is the "department head" of the town, also called the "administrative officer". Depending on the direction of development of each town, the number and functions of the officers are also different.

The Officers of Affairs generally include the Administrator, the Treasurer, the Defense, the Justice, the Culture, and the Diplomat, which are the permanent Officers of the other liege realms.

On Black Horse Island, there are additional administrative officers such as insect officers, marine affairs officers, transportation officers, construction officers, and fishery officers.

All affairs officers are accountable to the town's advisors.

However, when 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, dually lead the town's affairs officer. In order to avoid the formation of advisers and balance the power of officials.

Mark didn't dare to expect himself to become an officer, after all, the officer's requirement was a trainee knight, and he was just a civilian who had not cultivated his fighting spirit.

His greatest wish was to become an assistant to the clerk and marry a beautiful wife.

Just as he was imagining that he had achieved fame and teaching snake script, a group of people suddenly stepped on the field path and rode over in the distance. It wasn't until he got closer that Mark suddenly discovered that it was Mr. Grande, the cultural officer of the port town, who was highly valued by the lord and presided over the teaching of all snake scripts and wind languages in the territory.

He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Clerk Mark, I have seen the cultural officer!"

"Mark, I remember you, when I was in class, you were serious. Grandet dismounted from his horse, made a careful recognizance, and seemed to recognize 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. When the Black Horse Island was first built, the Executive Office urgently recruited a large number of clerical officials for pre-job training, and there were hundreds of people: "I'm here to check the teaching progress of your clerical officials, Mark, and let all civilians get ready." ”

"Yes, Lord Culture!"

......

Spring ploughing work, arrange it.

Liszt didn't pay much attention.

He rushed back to Flower Town the next day, and since the potions had been eaten by the little fire dragon, he had to use the channels of Tulip Castle to buy a batch again.

This costs thousands of gold coins.

What's even more depressing is that the little fire dragon obviously won't just be sent away, and when it wakes up from its chest, it is screaming to eat and drink. If it wants to grow, it has to consume more resources, and potions are just one of them. I'm afraid I can't beat the potion money of thousands of gold coins a month.

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

"Relying solely on the output of Dark Horse Island is too difficult, if it weren't for the liquor and glass that began to make huge profits, I might not even be able to support my own cultivation...... I really hope that the opening order will come sooner, and I will make a war exploit as soon as possible, plunder more loot, and subsidize consumption. ”

At this stage, I can only pick and search to get by.
