Chapter 764: Reform 6

"Most of what you do is so that they can live in this world." Mormont said with a slight seriousness, "You even think about what might happen in the future..."

"You may think I'm complimenting you, Your Majesty, but I still want to say that you are really a great king."

"Your fraternity and heart are incomparable to other nobles, and without a commoner like me, I can feel the deep malice of this damn world towards them!" With that, Mormont bent down deeply towards Locke. "Whatever your intentions, Your Majesty, I am sure that the people will tell the Light every day about your merits and deeds, pray for your health and longevity, and the Mormont family will always be loyal to Your Majesty!"

Just because I used to be just an ordinary person... Locke thought silently in his heart.

I've never forgotten when I was very young and picked up snacks in the trash bin that other rich students still had in the trash. During recess, I watched other students drink soy milk and buy pies to eat, while I could only hold my gurgling stomach in the classroom, looking at other students with envy. I wear my cousin's old clothes all year round, and I never wear new clothes, the kind of life that no one cares about, no one raises...

One time is enough!

That's why I take care of ordinary people... Because I used to be an ordinary person.

"The people of Lordaeron have given so much for the liberation of Lordaeron, and they deserve it." Locke smiled reluctantly, dispelling the memories he remembered, "I can't let them live the same life as the nobles, but I expect them to live a life without worrying about food and drink." It's me too! King of Lordaeron! Guardian of this kingdom! The right thing to do! ”

Mormont's clenched fist trembled, loosened and clenched!

"Don't show loyalty to me here anymore, there will be more opportunities in the future." Looking at the excited Mormont in front of him, Locke smiled and said, "You are the prime minister, you not only have to do your own thing, but also need to help other departments coordinate and deal with various matters." If you do the work I have assigned to you, you will be the greatest help to them. And you will definitely be busier than me in the future, and in two months, Lordaeron will need you and Wang Hou to preside over the overall situation. Then you and the queen will be in charge of our kingdom! ”

"Yes! Your Majesty rest assured! Mormont assured with a serious face!

"Good! Then I'm relieved. I'll go first..."Locke nodded in satisfaction and tried to leave. But he had barely taken a few steps when Mormont suddenly sprang out from behind him, blocking his way.

"Your Majesty, I was fooled by you just now!" Mormont said a little depressedly, "Whether it's Countess Lucas or Baron Berg, they are all fine, and most of them are doing their previous jobs. But I, as the Chief Minister, have to build the Prime Minister's staff, review the decisions of various departments and revise laws, and I am also responsible for the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Propaganda! I am still the Speaker of the House of Lords, and your Majesty will certainly not be in charge of the House..."

"Your Majesty! I need a helper! I don't have deep roots in Iva like other ministers. ”

Locke held his forehead a little embarrassed, he was indeed going to run away just now. It's really tiring...

"You're the chief minister, you need to pick it yourself! Although now it seems that we have a lot more departments, and a lot more work out of thin air. But this was done before. You just have to expand those people into your department! "Looking at the prime minister in front of him, Locke can only give one solution." In view of our current situation, whether the person is suitable or not is secondary, and the most important thing is to build the framework first. If a person is not suitable for the current position, it can be slowly modified later. ”

Locke's words broadened Mormont's mind.

Locke had already consciously begun to cultivate relevant talents before, and almost all of the financial, civil affairs, and government affairs departments had a staff group behind them. Now, if you expand these into the new department, there will be a lot fewer problems. What is lacking is only an understanding of the rules and regulations and the revision of the law.

"If you bring people in casually, doesn't that affect your work? Wouldn't it be a mess? Mormont was skeptical.

"Is there anything more chaotic than we have now!? Take my word to heart, now is the time to build the framework! As long as the manpower can be used, it can be used, there is a real shortage of people, and if it can't be used, put it in! When it stabilizes, the aristocratic officials will make up for it! Seeing that Mormont was still a little confused, Locke reluctantly continued to explain, "The nobles who have lost most of their authority will soon accept this setting of the political officer!" This would be much better than just voting in the House of Lords and recommending legislation in other sectors! If you are really worried, you can even put up an announcement and go outside to recruit civilian affairs officers, and use affairs officers to do some unimportant work. ”

"Don't be imprisoned in your thoughts, as long as you can do your job well, even if you are not human!"

"Well... I'll try. ”

Mormont bowed to Locke and was about to leave, but Locke took the initiative to stop him.

"Wait! If that's what you're thinking, that's what the ministers out there are all about. Tell them what I just said. Locke pointed to a roll of parchment in Mormont's hand, "Tell them to take a good look at the responsibilities of their department, and if they don't understand, ask me about the staff group I arranged for them!" Then look for people to build the framework...."

Mormont went out, but Locke was in no hurry.

Sure enough, at the moment when the door of the conference hall was closed, there were bursts of inquiries outside the conference hall, and the ministers under him were really waiting outside the door.

Locke sat quietly in the conference room, to be honest, those people outside were the most suitable people he could find, this was really the time to show their abilities, but Locke was not in a hurry. This kind of thing can be said to be unprecedented in Azeroth, and being able to do it shows that he is really a talent, at least he is absolutely capable. It doesn't matter if you can't do it, you can take your time, who let them support themselves?

If it weren't for the fact that Locke was going to meet Varian in two months, Locke would have given them a year to get things done with their department.

Having served as Prince Derek's chief advisor, Mormont's comprehension is definitely better than the others. He quickly conveyed the king's words in his own words, and the effect was quite good. Many of the ministers had left, and at least Locke had heard much less noise outside the door.

But it's unrealistic for him to be lazy.

"Your Majesty, Lord Norris asks to see you."

"Please let her in."

Locke sat up straight, and Norris walked in in armor.

"Sit, do you need my help?" Without waiting for Norris to ask, Locke was the first to speak. Locke doesn't help his relatives in this regard, how can he say that this is also his own woman, who will he help if he doesn't help her?

"No, it's not a big problem." Norris spoke her words without thinking, but when she pulled out her seat and sat down, she said something that did not match what she had just said, and she looked at Locke who looked up, "No, I still need your help." ”

Without piercing the face of his tsundere woman, he smiled and asked, "You say, what's the need?" ”

"The Local Garrison Corps and the Sheriff's Force, which used to be under the control of Hudson's General Staff, but now that there is the Department of Defense, their management has passed into the hands of Admiral Abydis. I need to communicate with him about the ownership of the security forces, the establishment of police stations in various places, and the formation of a rapid reaction force by splitting the garrison corps. But you know..."Noris said to Locke indifferently, "because of my personal race, I don't have a good relationship with him, and in order not to affect my future work, I need you to act as a bridge between us and make this separation clear." ”

"I also need to split the military intelligence and reconnaissance part of the agency from the Security Service to the Ministry of Defense. That said, I need you to be by my side for a while to help me deal with these issues. ”

Looking at Noris's indifferent face, how could Locke suddenly feel that this was an excuse for her to want to be alone with herself?

"What about oversight?" Locke pondered and asked, "Actually, that's the main reason for the reshuffle of the Home Office, you know?" ”

"In the future, the Ombudsman will have a great responsibility to supervise the production and operation of other departments in the kingdom, as well as all royal companies."

"I'm going to talk to Whitemane and Quett about this, divide the relevant people from them, and then gradually cultivate them myself." Norris had apparently already considered it, and Locke had all the questions.

"The Security Service still needs to control the whole country, but it needs to be buried deeper in the future so that it is not discovered, and at the same time, foreign intelligence still needs to be obtained." Locke pondered to remind her, but Norris thought a lot about these issues, and she took Locke's words and said, "The work of the Inspectorate is carried out in the sun, and the work of the Security Service is hidden in the shadows. With the Ombudsman, the Security Service will do a good job, and many things that could not be done before can be handled through the Ombudsman. ”

Locke thought about it for a moment, and then mentioned the matter of the Rapid Reaction Force.

"The Rapid Reaction Force will be an important force for maintaining stability in the country in the future, and the fight against smuggling and other crimes will be within his mandate. It is not under the control of the Ministry of Defense, and the army cannot command it. It will be under my command and that of the Minister of the Interior, which is you. In the future, each province after the division must have one such army, it does not need to be too large, 500-800 people will do, but it must have combat effectiveness that is no worse than the army. ”

"As for the police, they have the same responsibilities as the sheriffs before, it..."

"I know, you don't have to say it to me again." Norris said impatiently, which made Locke get stuck, not knowing what to say.

"I'm fine," said Norris, standing up from the conference table, her blue eyes looking at Locke unblinking, "I know you're busy, come to me when you have time." ”

After hesitating for a moment, the expression on Noris's face struggled a little, and finally she asked, "Is it true that Sally is pregnant?" Fake? ”
