Leon asked the caretaker to attend to his business while he inspected the progress of the smelter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He walked down the road, and he had some thoughts about the two of them.

Reaching that verdict is the best way at the moment, but there are still hidden dangers. For example, if the two of them give up all the previous contradictions, then the people around them can also be calm, if the two of them are unwilling to let go of their prejudices, secretly make evil, and set up their own small organizations, it will be difficult for the residential area to have a peaceful day.

The latter is something that Lyon does not want to see, and it is not a good thing for anyone. Similar things will also be found in others, but he has no way to solve them completely now, relying on his own persuasion alone, it will be effective for a while and a half, and it is inevitable that there will be no other things mixed in for such a long time in the future, and there must be a system to resolve the contradictions.

"Things are getting tricky. Leon shook his head and sighed.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the smelter, where two masons from the poor had been sent to assist in the construction, and the whole was built at a rapid pace, and it would not be long before it was ready for use.

This is a key point in the development of the town, before the sale of ore can only be said to be the source of raw materials, but through smelting, it has become an export of industrial products, a little change, it has changed the status of the town, if you want to become stronger, you need more industry to support, this is the experience that Leon learned from another memory.

"Your Royal Highness. When they saw the arrival of the prince, they said respectfully, but Leon noticed that the look in their eyes was different

The blacksmiths were summoned from elsewhere by the great merchant Silas, and for them, Leon was his employer, working here just to earn wages, but the rest of the people had another intention, that is, to work hard for the development of the town, and the new masons may not feel this way, but the townspeople did think so.

It's only been a month, and the town has already changed a lot.

The most obvious point is that there is enough food for everyone. In the past years, life was the most difficult in this season. Because the land is barren, the amount of food produced by itself is not much, and the weather is cold at this time, and the growth of wild vegetables is slow, which leads to only two meals a day, and even in the worst case, only one bowl of vegetable soup to drink.

Just when everyone thought that the difficult days were coming, a recruitment order from the prince gave the townspeople a job.

"It's a rule since ancient times to work for the lord, and you still want to get paid?" These words spread a lot at the beginning, and the unanimous opinion of the people around them was like this, how could the lord pay for it, it was all good to say.

But the final result made those people obediently shut up, and the prince fulfilled his promise, as long as those who put in the labor were rewarded accordingly, and with the reward there was food.

Under such circumstances, the townspeople felt in their hearts that they had to work hard, not only for themselves, but also to repay the prince for his kindness.

"You guys do a good job, there's still a school that needs you when you're done. Leon said with a smile, the people who work here now, except for the blacksmith, are all candidates to build the academy in the future.

"Your Highness, is there going to be a school in the town?" When a townsman heard this, he was not sure for a while, his ancestors had lived here for so many years, and he had never seen what the school was like.

"Of course, your children will be able to go to school when it's built. Leon had not yet publicized the matter, and he planned to wait until the construction began, for it would only be convincing when there was a real school, for he was afraid that the townspeople would not send the children to the school.

Such a situation is prevalent throughout the continent. Only the descendants of the rich and noble have the right and conditions to receive education, and if they want to enter the academy, they cannot do it without a certain economic foundation. In addition, in Ravenwood's previous situation, the daily task of the children was to help the family with household chores, and when they were free, they would go out to find food, or they would only go hungry, and in that case, basically no one wanted to let their children receive the so-called education.

Leon's idea is very simple, run a free school, and the content taught should not be as complicated as teaching the aristocracy, just the most basic literacy, if you want to teach more, you can't find the right person, after all, if you want to become a knowledgeable person, you must go to the school city.

When the townspeople heard the prince's words, their faces were happy: "That's great, no one in my family has ever been able to read and write, and my children will be different in the future." ”

Leon was a little surprised, looking at his attitude as if he was willing to send his child to the school.

Leon looked at the others again, "What about your children?" He wanted to know what the others thought, and if they did, his task would be much lighter.

"Of course, you have to go, and you can't lag behind other people's families. The townspeople laughed and said, Ravenwood is so big, and the people around him know each other, so it's okay not to know about such a thing, but after knowing it, they won't let go of the opportunity, after all, everyone wants their faces to be brighter.

Leon nodded, this situation is the best, he is afraid that they will stop in front and will not release people until he gives his own order, he thought to himself, it is better not to appear in that situation.

"I'll tell you, the cost of going to the academy is not low, do you have that much money?" After these days of working together, the blacksmiths and townsfolk became acquainted. There was a blacksmith from White Mist City, and he had thought about sending his children to the school before, but the fee made him afraid to ask again, and when he heard the words of the townspeople, he said a little jokingly.

"Why not, don't I work hard every day?" the townsfolk hadn't been to White Mist City, so they didn't know what the situation was like outside.

"Tsk, you can't even get into the threshold. The blacksmith shook his head, it seemed that people who had never seen the world really did not know the height of the sky.

"It's not as exaggerated as he said, the school is free, you just have to let the kids go. Leon waved his hand, the blacksmith said that it was the outside situation, it did not apply in the town, he only wanted to improve the education of the townspeople, and did not think of making money from it.

"Free?" the blacksmiths couldn't believe it, it was from the prince's mouth, which meant that this was indeed the case, and this was the first time they had heard of a free school.

"Shall everybody go?" the blacksmith tried to ask, and if he answered in the affirmative, he planned to send his children to the town later.

Leon was a little surprised, he used to rack his brains to find a way to retain blacksmiths and other talents, but there was no progress, but now he said it casually, but it made them interested, and sure enough, sometimes life is so wonderful.

"No, you have to be a citizen of Ravenwood to enjoy that. Leon thought it was the most appropriate time to bring it up.

The blacksmiths nodded thoughtfully.
