"Two hundred thousand gold coins. ”

Solano was startled, then asked.

"I would like to follow Lord Wayne. ”

"The quota is over, you're too late. ”

If Solono's face had been made up of anger just now, it would have permeated the entire hall by now. These people who have been with Solano can feel the monstrous anger of Solano at this time.

But no one was afraid, now that the big picture was decided, Solono's resistance was useless. No one is afraid of a dog's wrath but of being bitten.

Solano shuddered, his teeth clenched. He wanted to rush up and knock the hairy boy who was concentrating on eating vegetables to the ground with a punch, and let him know what it meant to respect the old and love the young.

But he couldn't, and the aristocracy and commoners were an unbridgeable gulf in his upper-middle-class class. His bloodline is lower than theirs, and he was born to be their canine slave. Even though Wayne looks like them, with one nose and two ears. But some things just don't change.

His pattern is too small, and his strength is too weak. If Rune's prime minister didn't care about any nobles or not, only the powerful and the small. Solano can't, even a small viscount can kill him at will.

Solano had to make a choice, and no, he didn't. He can't get out of this door, absolutely can't get out. Either sit in that position that symbolizes compromise, or go to see God the Father.

Mandel can also roughly guess this kind of ending, after all, Wayne is not a good stubble, and he also needs to make an example of the monkey. Unfortunately, Solano became this monkey. He also doesn't have much sympathy, after all, it's hard to climb to this position with sentimentality.

When several other squires saw this scene, they were not only lucky, but also couldn't help but feel sad that the rabbit had died and the fox was sad.

Two hundred thousand gold coins, that is the amount that all the squires present could not make up. But none of the people present took this seriously, 200,000 was still too small compared to the land of 5,000 bagolis. In the future, Solano can only sit and eat nothing, which is completely different from having his own long-term assets.

Solano finally began to move his feet after a desperate internal struggle. Slowly walked over to the place Wayne had left for him.

Seeing that the person who was still trying to oppose him yesterday is now compromising with himself with unwillingness and anger, Wayne can't help but feel good. No wonder those plots of pretending to slap the face are quite popular, it turns out to be really cool.

When Solano sat down, Wayne raised his glass that glowed red.

"Gentlemen, I am glad that we had a happy end. ”

Wayne drank the red wine in a sip of the situation, and some squires who were in good health also did it to the end.

Wayne then summoned seventy retired soldiers who had been in Longi for a few days, ready for them to take over the squire's work.

For the start of the work, Wayne also specially prepared a uniform. In order to better blend in with the masses, these uniforms were made beige. The style is similar to that of a military uniform.

These soldiers stood in several rows according to the training, and it had been discussed in advance that Magat, who was the company commander before retiring, would be the temporary leader.

"The report is in chief, this time there should be 70 people, but there are 70 people. ”

Wayne was also pleased with the soldiers' ability to form discipline on their own. Although most of them are crippled, some have short arms and lame legs. But the mental outlook is good.

It didn't start to fall into decay just because he left the army.

"Well, I'm going to split you into teams of ten now. The number of people in each team is different, and I will tell you what you are going to do in advance. Most of you used to come from the countryside, and some of you even came from here. But for the sake of follow-up, none of you can shelter your teammates' families. I hope you understand. ”

"Yes!"

Neat and orderly, sonorous and uniform.

"And you can write and calculate basically, this time you must understand how the work of these squires is done. After all, I want you to replace them in the future. ”

"Also, remember not to look down on these peasants just because they have seen a little of the world and done some merits. Be ye in their mingles. ”

.....

It was unrealistic for seventy men to manage more than 40,000 bargories, so it was necessary to use the management system left by these squires.

Wayne has to take all the power into his hands, and these soldiers are the middle management, responsible for passing on his orders and conveying the problems below.

The squires relied on their cronies to manage the land, and the old man Wayne met was presumably a distant relative of Mandel's family.

Some of these people were responsible for bookkeeping and population statistics, some were in charge of the direct management of the peasants, and some were in charge of the village security forces. Now these squires are leaving the land, and it is impossible for these cronies to take them with them. can only let them transfer to Wayne's door, and these retired soldiers go back to let these squires complete the power docking.

Of course, there will definitely be resistance, but it is estimated that it will not be large. After all, the masters are gone, and there is a use for them to resist.

As for the peasants, it is estimated that they will die of joy when they hear that they have paid less grain tax.

After some time, the soldiers became familiar with the work, and Wayne began to make drastic reforms. The present system is entirely for the service of the squire. The squires ruled under the slogan of serving the aristocracy, the grain tax had to be handed over to the squire, the security corps was still organized by the squire, and the data on the population and land were all in the hands of the squire.

Wayne needs to spark these farmers' enthusiasm for reclamation and need them to grow more food. Previously, Wayne issued a rule on who cultivates and who plants. But there are policies at the top, and there are countermeasures at the bottom. The gentry prevented the peasants from cultivating their land by restricting the use of farm tools. Now it's Wayne who manages to turn those fertile wastelands into fertile land.

The production team is a perfect fit.

Production is actually a group of farmers cooperatively planting and clearing wasteland. The fruits of labor are distributed according to work.

Take 100 square meters of land overgrown with wild grass as an example, it takes at least half a year for two people to reclaim. But ten people are only allowed for half a month, which produces the effect that one plus one is greater than two.

Two people need to weed, turn the soil, add fertilizer, and so on. The work is messy and messy. It is a good division of labor that can be done by individuals, and the efficiency can be significantly improved.

The purpose of these soldiers was not only to manage the land well, but also to invisibly influence the minds of these peasants. Let them know that the official can also be very kind, the sense of regional unity, and so on. This was to prepare for the later awakening of the political consciousness of the peasants, and the Peasants' and Workers' Party, in Wayne's plan, was a necessary block.

The political consciousness of the peasants is more difficult to awaken than that of the workers. They have little access to information, find it difficult to accept new things, and have a natural resistance to politics. But once the political consciousness is awakened, it is like a peerless master breaking the seal. The impact would be unimaginable, and all the peasants would follow suit, form political parties, and eventually merge. Form a powerful force to destroy those stumbling blocks on the road to modernization.
