"What do you mean, Bluffrey?" Oliver asked, confused, he was familiar with the languages and cultures of different countries in different dimensions, but he still couldn't do anything about Lucian's habitual coined words.

Lucien said with a serious and sincere expression: "Although the idea of this kind of school comes from the apprenticeship system in the past, it is undoubtedly a new form, not only is there no personal attachment, but also you can still get a salary after graduating and entering the alchemy workshop, but it is slightly lower than the ordinary one, and the contract is longer, so I coined a new term for it - Buffrey, it is synonymous with this type of school, which contains the meaning of dreams." ”

"What do you think?"

Atlante kept his eyes closed, and said with a smile: "I am very much in favor of the idea of promoting general schools and such professional schools, but there is a problem, in the past when the apprenticeship system was taught, as long as an apprentice was taught, this apprentice would work for the alchemy workshop for ten years without pay, and only needed accommodation and food, and now Blue, Brufrye, both ask the alchemy workshop to invest in training funds in advance, and ask for the salary of the apprentices who graduate, I don't think they will accept it willingly, unless the council and the kingdom give pressure." ”

"Mr. Atlante, times have changed, and the one-to-one or one-to-several apprenticeship system in the past can no longer meet the needs of the current alchemy workshop, I don't need to say this, I believe you should also understand, just like the apprenticeship training of the council has basically been transformed into a school system. ”

"I'm going to lobby a couple of companies in which I have a stake to invest in the first Bluffrey in Quintal and wait until two or three years later. While they have reduced costs and broadened the market with the support of a steady stream of professional workers, other alchemy workshops may still be in a dilemma of understaffing, and the company's upfront investment in training funds is recovered from the profits they generate, which is a necessary cost. ”

Lucien doesn't force anyone, and it's not easy to make others pay for things, but fortunately, he is not a young man who just emerged when he lobbied for environmental protection, and he has no authority, no influence, and no strong support. He has become a member of the Supreme Council that holds the power to make decisions. has his own power and wealth, and he can get rid of other people's obstacles and make samples to follow first.

And the actual cost is not much, the school site can allow Natasha to make up for it with a superfluous monastery. I took out some of the arcane points and issued tasks for mages and graduated apprentices to teach. Among them, those with excellent teaching performance can enter the atomic research institute or study with themselves for a period of time. In this way, there is no worry about not being attractive, and from the second year onwards. The school's apprentices will be arranged to go to the alchemy workshop for "internship" in their spare time, and part of the investment will be recovered in advance.

Seeing Lucian's attitude, Atlante and the other skeptical magicians were relieved, and he nodded slightly: "Indeed, the times are different, and the old things should be buried in the past, I suggest that the Supreme Council make a resolution on 'Buffrey' and encourage the alchemy workshop to invest money in the establishment but not force it." Evans, if you want to build it, you can count me in it. ”

Douglas slapped his palms lightly: "I am in favor of the Arlinge Telephone and Telegraph Company, which belongs to the Parliament, and others will take the lead in investing as an example." ”

Since it was not forced, all the members of the Supreme Council raised their hands in agreement, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"There is also the question of whether the financial support of the parliament and the state such as Holm alone can make general education schools universal? Will apprentices not be able to find things to do after graduation? Blauffree's apprentices are pre-built for an alchemy workshop, and if they spend a lot of money and don't get a change in their lives, they may resent the kingdom and us, and throw themselves into the arms of the God of Truth, completely against our original wishes. "Atlante is a master of figuring out people's hearts.

Lucien said with a smile: "Mr. Atlante, the changes of the times are a chain reaction, when there are so many alchemy workers, with the increase of social wealth, and with all kinds of alchemy items that shorten the distance between the city, the structure of the whole society will inevitably change essentially, maybe a job will be differentiated into many more refined and professional jobs, maybe there will be things that were unimaginable in the past, of course, the scale of general education will definitely be controlled at the beginning, and it cannot be blindly promoted, it must be suitable for our own financial resources and social conditions." ”

"Then I have no opinion, Evans, you are sober and not in a hurry at all. "Atlante has little to do with the changes in social development, but his old partner, the Transfiguration Master Erica, is an excellent historian and is very much in favor of Lucian's assertion that the social division of labor will be more detailed, and after a silent exchange with Atlante, he gives up his original skepticism.

The question of liberal schools was discussed for a while, and under the glamour of striking at the very foundations of the Church's faith, the Supreme Council finally adopted the resolution, emphasizing only moderation.

"I would like to add two more words. "I suggest that regulations be enacted to regulate the alchemy workshop, and the problem of overtime and child labor should be restricted, so that the alchemy workshop should not be too oppressive of the workers, and there will be a hell on earth, which will make more people participate in the church, it is best to work less than ten hours a day, child labor can be used, but labor must be assigned according to age......"

Due to the problems of simplification and promotion, the current alchemy workshop is in a state of power, and the dwarven craftsmen and human workers can still maintain a good health, so Lucien believes that it should be the first to regulate, and curb this inevitable trend before the alchemy workshop oppresses workers to gain benefits and form vested interest groups, which is relatively simple.

And the use of child labor, Lucien can only have no choice but to compromise, there is no good relief system, many orphans can find a job to survive is the most important thing, can not ignore the reality of the situation and blindly pursue ideals, that will harm others, too much.

"I don't think it's appropriate for me to discuss such a minor issue at a meeting of the Supreme Council. "Absolute defense," Artuman said to stop Lucian, "standardize the alchemy workshop." Treating workers well is in line with the council's goal of creating a new image of the magician, but we just need to set the general direction, leave the details to the Panel to work out, and we will approve it at the end of the day. ”

Oliver also interjected: "Evans, you are also a member of the Supreme Council, you can instruct the committee to draw up a statute according to your ideas, and then show it to everyone, if the premise is correct, it can basically be passed, and there is no need to discuss the specific provisions with us now." Everyone's time is precious. ”

Lucien bowed slightly. Indicate that he is still adapting to the change of identity, and that he is no longer a specific executor, but an auditor, a decision-maker and a supervisor.

But hearing Oliver say this, Lucien once again remembered the incident when he lobbied for pollution treatment in the first place. In order for the Panel to adopt a similar provision. I'm running around. Lobbying a big person, at the very end, he has to stand in the meeting room of the Panel to explain his views and be questioned. And they could not even participate in the process of discussing and deciding, and could only passively wait for the results, and now, Oliver lightly allowed himself to instruct the Panel to draw up regulations, as if it were a small matter of course.

"Is this what it's like to be at the top of all magicians......" Lucien sighed in his heart.

In the Supreme Council, the Grand Arcanist of Alinge is the chairman of the committee, which changes every five years, and the vice president is permanent, with Oliver, Atuman, and Manuel, the Sun King, who are strong in action and good at fighting or handling things, and lead them respectively when they are acting externally or exploring another dimension.

Since the regulation of the alchemy workshop did not involve the loss of immediate interests, the other members of the Supreme Council did not object, and the topic continued to deepen, discussing the control of the four countries of the Strait and the Northland coastal corridor, the construction of the three major fortresses along the Storm Strait, and the number of airships.

In this regard, Lucien didn't know enough about the situation, listened quietly, and didn't express any more opinions, after all, even the airship that looked bulky was different from what he originally thought, although it was a bit slow, but it used a lot of materials to build a magic array or magic array, which can be called an air fortress, and ordinary strikes will not cause damage at all, and it has an advantage that is difficult to match with an airplane, and it cannot be solved by ordinary bombardment.

As for large passenger planes, there is no need for mages above the high rank, and it is better to promote the magic steam train below the high level, so that more places are connected by rail.

Unconsciously, the meeting was coming to an end, and Lucien spoke again: "Everyone, the highest honors in the current major magical fields belong to various organizations and countries, there is no parliament, this is not logical, since the most glorious title of arcane and magic is the Grand Arcanist awarded by the council, the highest honor should also be the award issued by the council, and in the face of the rapid development of arcane and more and more achievements today, our standards should be stricter, not only to have enough achievements to remain in the annals of history, but also to have their own theoretical explanations. ”

"If the council is willing to be established, I am willing to give one-third of my share earnings every year to encourage the development of arcane and magic. ”

After becoming a legendary magician, the preciousness of materials often has to be bartered, so the annuity income is actually not that important to Lucian, and it is better to make up for the impact of the headshot demon.

"You take a third of the shares?" Douglas looked at Lucian with some interest.

Because the Alinge Telephone and Telegraph Company is still in the investment stage, Lucien's current annuity income is about more than 10,000 gold thalers per month, which is about 150,000 or 60,000 a year, and one-third is a huge amount of sponsorship.

Lucien nodded seriously: "Yes, this is my wish." ”

"What about you, do you have any opinions?" Douglas looked at the others, mainly Hathaway, Atlante, Helen, and the others.

Hathaway put it succinctly: "It's good that the council has an award. ”

Anyway, it costs the money of the council, and the standard is very high, it is likely that there will only be one in more than ten years, and the others saw that Douglas was moved, so they did not object.

Douglas laughed and said: "Since everyone agrees, then we will set up this award, including eleven factions, the name, it is called the Lucien Evans Award, which is divided into the Evans Element Award, the Evans Astrology Award, and so on, rewarding eight-level perfection level magic items."
