After hearing this, several people looked at each other, and then the outspoken little sunfish said first, "The mining of the mine requires a lot of equipment, pumping screws, various tools, mules and horses, wheels, and exhaust wheels; And then smelting also needs a lot of equipment, furnaces, blast pipes, and finally casting need a lot of equipment. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn short, the cost of money and manpower is huge. ”

"Not only that, but there must also be sand, brick and river transport industries, and there are too many places to invest." After listening to the words of the little sunfish, although the mushroom-headed heraldic officer was silent, Wright hurriedly added.

Gawain sat back in his chair, rested his hand on his chest, looked at the three of them, and listened to the difficulties they mentioned, and suddenly laughed, and then he said with some emotion, "What you said is very pertinent, which shows that your ability has really increased greatly. I remember that the little sunfish was an unworldly girl, Wright was a Sicilian prodigal who only wanted to hook up with women, and Androdart was a probationary friar whom I had forcibly pulled out of the monastery in the mountains of Calabria...... Time flies so fast, and now you can all be on your own, and you have a lot of military and political insight and experience. ”

After saying this, Gawain sighed lightly, and his brows furrowed very imposingly, which showed that he had a set of opinions and plans to publish, "There is not much problem with river transportation, not only do we have a number of usable barges, but we also have duty-free shipping treaties with Adanab, and we can use their ships to win together, and the conditions of the Sanus and Felamis rivers are better than those of the Sidenus River in central Cilicia, there is no siltation downstream, and river transportation and irrigation can be provided at the same time." Fort Tronzak, located between many tributaries, is rich in hydraulic and forest resources, and it is convenient to build workshop machinery; In addition, it is backed by a large mountain, so there is no need to worry about the production of clay and river sand, and it can be used to build a furnace for iron smelting. In addition, we can set up workshops for farming, armor and weapons in the triangle of Sith City, Siqi Tesla and Gemalicia, where there are very complete water and land transportation roads. In terms of manpower, I immediately had the consuls send two thousand Paulicians, all of whom were experienced in pottery making and brick-making; And then this area, together with the nearly 40,000 Armenians who had been previously migrated by us, brought the total to about 80,000, and there were also a number of Syrian craftsmen to use, and miners and craftsmen could always be found, that is to say, ......"

Under the gaze of the three men, Gawain stood up, solemnly pinned his hands behind his waist, and stared at the beautiful whitewashed walls, the hanging paper map, which marked the fortresses, rivers, roads, and passes of the entire Anatolia and Cilicia regions, "Now that the kingdom is in place, it is time to divide its administrative region and govern it." The regions of Seleucia, Aralman, and the Mut Valley are basically under the direct jurisdiction of the Six Divisions, so I don't have to worry about the establishment of the 'Seleucian County'; Lamas, Zephilim, and Koleadiou, and now I have to add the city of Tarsus, that is, the West Cilicia region, and I am ready to establish the 'County of Tarsus', and here, the 'Sith County', which I have carefully and fully prepared, will become a rich and powerful iron-smelting, farming, and forestry production area in the future, and the two 'county magistrates' are ready to be handed over to Androdat and Wright respectively. ”

The county magistrate? This sounded like a glorious official position equivalent to that of a general of the Byzantine Roman Empire, so the two heraldic officers were stunned, but they looked at Gawain with his hands behind his back and continued to look at the map, and did not stop, knowing that the Grand Duke did not like to be interrupted when talking about ideas, so they remained silent.

"According to the simple official position I originally formulated, the heraldic officer should help me deal with foreign and internal affairs, but now that Anna has the Orson girl on her side, I also have a little sunfish to help me for the time being. Therefore, the position of heraldic officer must be put on hold for the time being, and we are no more flexible in our official position than the old empire like Constantinople. What's more, both of you are brained and cultured people, although your personalities are not the same, you can't stick to paperwork, and you will engage in bigger and more important careers in the future. I hand over to you two counties—the counties of Jinat, such as Polybi, the Gospel Farms, the large number of village communes, and the markets and workshops of the castle market towns, which are intricately organized and taken care of as well as marching and fighting, and which are to be done with great composure. Your first task is to set up a lean and efficient county government, although St. Paul's College is not yet completed, but there are a number of students who have graduated, and I will send them all to the county to make use of their strengths, and they will be integrated into the county government, the reformation church, and the brotherhood, and receive a salary to serve as your right-hand man. Anderodart, tell me what you think about governance! After saying a lot, Gao Wen asked about the mushroom head coldly.

"Divide and rule," said Androdart, "my county will follow the division of labor of the six divisions, manage the city and the estates within the fortress, collect the market tax, the toll tax, the festival tax, and the chimney tax, and except for the general treasury which is paid to the Grand Duke, the rest shall be used to pay the salaries of the student trainees and the city brotherhood; In addition, the county government would collect the shield tax from the rural communes, and the rent from the lease of communal cattle and mills, which would be used to form a garrison army, and regularly select personnel to form circuit courts to check the law and order and morals throughout the region. As for the Holy Gospel Farm, I will appoint some of the brotherhood presidents to serve as overseers, and I will also promote some of the Holy Warrior farmers to assist, and all the profits obtained will be used for the military expenses of the Grand Duke's Triflank Brigade. The Genat estates were handed over to their respective owners without interference, but the circuit courts had the power to inspect their books. Production, religious ceremonies, and judicial cases in the rural communes are handed over to the Liberal Renewal Society, and the members of the Liberal Commune also own land and property, and can also control the litigation fees and fines paid in judicial cases, but they are also subject to the review and supervision of the circuit courts. ”

"Good." Gawain said, "In this way, the county will be healthy and orderly." But aren't you afraid of a shortage of manpower? ”

"It doesn't matter, as the county magistrate, I can recommend capable people, no matter what race he is, he can come out to take up public office; Second, I can also imitate St. Paul's College and establish public schools in the county, and hire talented people to come and teach and cultivate all kinds of talents. Anderodat's reply made Gawain nod frequently, "In this way, you are enough to govern the population of nearly 200,000 in Tarsus County." ”

"Now I have three questions, and I hope you can solve them, Grand Duke. One question is why Wright is governing the newly acquired Sith County and not me, and the second question is the other districts, such as Vanka, under what name are you going to govern them? The third question is how you will solve the problem of the funds needed for the iron ore mines of Trangzak, because you have always avoided talking about this most crucial topic. Finally, Androdart, straightening up, asked the Grand Duke a series of questions. (To be continued.) )
