Chapter 429: The New Year is Approaching
At the end of each year, the human beings of the entire magic continent will carry out a festival called New Year's Day, which will last for a month, and during this month, the mercenary union will stop all mercenary tasks, and the magic union will distribute all kinds of small gifts, almost every passerby will be distributed, this is to thank everyone for their support to the magic union during the year.
The Warriors' Guild will have a holiday at this time, so that they can go home and have fun with their families for a month, but the Thieves' Guild will be open at this time, but secretly, of course, they have always been the dark side of society, and will never be on the front.
This is the time when they have the best time to make a move, and it is also the time when they are most likely to make mistakes and be caught, because the patrol guards at this time are not on vacation. They are still conscientiously defending every human city, and being caught will definitely be a matter of life and death.
There is only one country they will not steal, and that is the Morok Kingdom, not because they are cruel to thieves, but because they will be captured and locked up in a small black room, which is an extremely terrible thing.
According to the Holy Hand Thief who had been imprisoned, he said frankly: "It is a privilege to be caught in the Moroc Kingdom, they will give you a choice of punishment, don't choose to lock up the small black house, it's terrible." ”
Many thieves didn't believe it and tried it, but the result was tragic, and after being locked up for a few days, they were like crazy.
With the lessons of these predecessors, many thieves know that when they enter Morokke's dungeon, they don't choose to close the small black house, and honestly go to the construction site to renovate it.
It's just that what they didn't expect was that the life on the construction site was actually better than the outside, not only three meals a day, but also meat to eat, although there was more work, but the foreman knew that they were doing meticulous work, and they picked some meticulous and difficult ones for them, and more importantly, they could actually learn from it, which landlord was so luxurious? Even asked the workers and prisoners to read and write?
He thought it was a dream, so he took the awl and gave it to himself, and immediately howled and screamed, and was sarcastically ridiculed by the others, so he had to obediently curry favor with him, and then he got the information back.
It turns out that the Moroc Kingdom is in a national literacy activity, no matter where, even if it is a public toilet to pick up feces, there will be an assessment once a week, nothing else, it is a literacy assessment, as long as you pass the test, there will be a bonus, I heard, there is also a challenge mode, once it passes, then it is ten gold coins! That's going to cost them months' wages.
"What? Do you still get paid? ”
"Nonsense, otherwise why would everyone work so hard? Just for those few pieces of meat? Boy, Lao Tzu told, I used to do your job, but now it has been improved, not only have wages to get, but also to read and write, I heard that after a while, schools across the country will open, that is the academy that His Majesty the King asked to open, although most of the recruits are children, but His Majesty said, education should start from the baby, and nine years of compulsory education will be held! Where to find good things, if I were you, just don't do this business, just get a household registration. The foreman mysteriously told everyone what they knew, and told the thief directly.
As a result, the once-rumored Holy Hand thief disappeared.
"Your Majesty, this is the financial income of our Morok Kingdom for the past year." Lu Wei is now completely accustomed to the world's style of doing things and theories of doing things, and even speaking.
"Damn, does Lao Tzu's treasury have so much money? How did Lao Tzu not know? Wang Erhu was a little confused, is this a mistake, this year, just the wine money paid to the dwarves and the group of drunkards has removed half of the treasury, as well as the money for building schools and wages, and even the money for building roads, which one is not costly, where is there so much money?
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that a series of side businesses derived from the construction of schools, as well as factories and workshops, wine shops, etc., are all profitable. Although they haven't started paying taxes yet, there is a crazy rush to build schools all over the country, so those side hustles have become the most profitable. "Lu Wei is very clear about people's livelihood, he originally did this business.
"Your Majesty, didn't you say that money should be encouraged? So our chamber of commerce opened a lot of hotels throughout the kingdom, and there were some messy places for consumption at the bar, and when the workers had money, they all went to the places with the logo of our chamber of commerce to consume, and the wages we paid to the workers came back back to the back and forth, and there were many more buildings in the meantime. Lu Wei also sighed at the productivity of people in another world, which is much faster than people on the earth! And it's crazy to fight hard.
"Alright! And what about the payouts? Don't tell me you haven't figured it out yet! I'm going to give you a holiday soon, so don't let me read the documents alone, or I'll let you sweep the streets. Wang Erhu was very angry when he thought of this, he hadn't comforted each other with his wives for a long time, because everyone was very busy, and even his two younger sisters were sent by him to help receive some envoys from other countries, of course, this is not really to let them go up, it is some officials who really go up, they just let the envoys of other countries know that they don't pay attention to them.
After all, the most honorable people in the Morok Kingdom have come out, and they have nothing to say, originally His Majesty the King of the Morok Kingdom has no royal relatives, except for the two empires of Savigne and Letizia, there are no other people, and it is good to be able to send his precious sister out to receive them.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, what are you talking about? We're also working overtime, no, this is our indicators, summary. Lu Wei knew that Wang Erhu was anxious at this time, not to mention him, he was also very anxious, the large and small data of the entire kingdom was simply a headache, and for the authenticity of these data, they secretly investigated it, but fortunately, these are very good and real data.
"Throw the data into the school, and let those students with high school status investigate and ponder it." Wang Erhu directly decided this matter.
"When it comes to schools, there is a problem, that is, our students already have a preliminary budget, and there are more than 10 million students from all over the country, which is not enough at all!" The prime minister also came, he didn't be polite to Wang Erhu, he saluted and began to complain, isn't this a waste of resources?
"If you don't have enough, just look for it! People from other kingdoms, as well as people from the grasslands, and mercenary circles, all kinds of things are fine. Wang Erhu said with a smile, this is not a problem at all, his school is called Baizu, so it will not be left empty.
"But then it would be very chaotic, and wouldn't it be too ...... to come from the grasslands," De Elous thought it would be too difficult to control even the grasslands, and it would be bad if the power of the grasslands grew.
"Old man, do you know why Savigne has always been unable to control the grassland? You don't know that controlling an entire race is not something that can be done by violence, and that cultural aggression is the best and most bloodless way. The grassland recruits all young dolls who have not yet reached adulthood, and the plasticity of these children is very high, as long as they come to our Moroke, how to teach them is not up to us. "This is what Wang Erhu wants most, and the beast king doesn't understand, but this is something that can't be done, after all, orcs really need people with knowledge.
De Elous is worthy of being an old fox, and he instantly thought of the feasibility of the matter, and admired Wang Erhu even more.
"Now what I'm most annoying about is the teachers, but it's not difficult, at the beginning of the year, you gave me this power of attorney to all the guilds in the whole world, and then the talents will come." Wang Erhu instantly thought of a way, which is still very feasible, because his salary is too high.
"But Your Majesty, in this case, there will be more people fishing in troubled waters." At this moment, even Lu Wei felt that it was inappropriate.
"It's very simple, there is a probationary period, after the probationary period is over, the students will be graded, the good ones will stay, and the bad ones will be resigned directly, and then it will depend on their ability, and they will eat with their ability." Wang Erhu said with a smile that education is the top priority next year.
"Okay, then it's decided, I'll do it then." De Ilox also thinks it is feasible.
"There is also next year to start screening some new officials who can be used, this item will be handed over to you, try to negotiate a new charter, and also, don't bother me with small things in the future, the council is not for you to solve problems, not to put it on the side, and then give it to me if there is a dispute." Wang Erhu is tired of these big and small things that have to be decided by himself, it's too fucked.
"Uh, Yes, Your Majesty." De Elous hurriedly arrived, the council itself was in charge of him, they dared to make decisions when Wang Erhu was away, and after they came, they really didn't dare to make up their minds casually, this thing is the lord who doesn't even let go of the king, how can they withstand these little shrimps?
Now that the reported work has been completed, the Prime Minister and Lu Bi immediately resigned and left, they still have a lot of things to do!
Wang Erhu took a look at the expenditure statement, and suddenly his scalp was a little numb, this year, the entire Morok Kingdom actually spent 10 million purple gold coins, which was a direct spend-up to the money that his old Wang family had brought from other countries!
Fortunately, they are not making a loss-making business, and the income from perfume and other high-end things and the catering school is directly flattened.
All right! It's time to build a treasury, it's time to expand the emperor's private treasury, and the lizard guy has been complaining that he can't lie down anymore.
Really, is it that good to lie on top of a gold coin? Don't panic?
The work at the end of the year is extremely complicated, and the right things need to be given a qualitative summary and the plan for the coming year, everyone is busy, and no one has free time at all, not only the entire palace is busy, but the people of the entire Morok Kingdom are also starting to get busy, and this world is a good time to make money!
Many of the most active citizens began to make handicrafts and sell them, and the hunters even took out the bacon and sold it. No one will save money at this time, except for unnecessary expenses, they will choose to spend their money at this time and share the festive feast with their families.
If you want to say that you earn the most at this time, it is still Xiaohan Xiaoru The two girls, those messengers took money and contributed in order to please them, and the two of them were like two little pixius, only in and out, and asked the two of them to do things, all of them became good babies who didn't know anything, which made the accompanying Morok officials breathe a sigh of relief and gave them a big thumbs up.
These two girls are also very kind-hearted, and they directly shared the dirt with other officials afterwards, and this matter was once passed on as a good story by officials. The Yanfeng official and the historian ran to tell Wang Erhu.
What is a gift from him to a child? Wouldn't it seem that I, Morok, were too stingy to even care about that? Sent away.
The official of speech and the official of history had no choice, so they had to record it according to the facts......
