Chapter 3: Creating a Sense of Belonging
After temporarily stabilizing Sisko and them in Greenwater, Casio began to explain many things in the past few days to prepare for his next plan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He had spent so much effort, so naturally he couldn't give up easily just because Sisko and them didn't want to stay, but he wouldn't make a fuss about Sisko and them and use some not-so-good methods.
Because this will only add unnecessary trouble to your future team.
His plan is to directly eliminate the source of Sisko's concerns, the problem on the Lyme City side!
And before proceeding with this plan, Casio has one last thing to tell Dainlord to do.
Looking at the Bachelor Dane sitting in front of him, compared to when he first came to Green Water Town, now this somewhat old-fashioned and rigorous scholar has obviously a lot more vitality, and he seems to be full of confidence in everything.
"Master Dain, I want you to do something during this time. All the people who have lived in Lushui Town for a long time will be made into a record file that can prove their identity for easy reference. ”
"Everyone?" said Dain's toothache as soon as he heard this.
In fact, there are archives in the Gurea that can prove identity, but these files are prepared for those who are in high positions, or have status and status, such as commoners, where can they enjoy this kind of treatment.
And now there are almost 2,000 people in Lushui Town, and if each of them makes an identity file, this workload, he thinks it's a terrifying thing.
Casio nodded, "Yes, everyone." I've got a template here, and you can just follow that. ”
Casio said, handing Maester Dain a template he had drawn up earlier.
Maester Dain took the template and looked at it, first without locking it slowly, then unfolding, and finally looking at Casio with a puzzled expression.
"Your Royal Highness, please forgive me for being foolish. I don't know what the point of you making these two templates?"
The template that Casio showed to Dainden was not the aristocratic profile that Dain's imagined was to be a nobleman's profile.
The aristocratic archives of the Gurea will record in detail the birth, origin, location, and personal equality of the nobleman.
Sometimes it takes a long time just to verify this information.
Fortunately, Casio's template does not have so many requirements, only simple information such as name, place of birth, type of job, and family members, which is not difficult to collect.
What really baffles Bachelor Dane is that Casio's template is divided into two parts.
One is a template for the local residents of Lushui Town, which mainly writes about the rights, obligations and preferential conditions of local residents, and the other is a template for non-local residents of Lushui Town, the above content is similar, but compared to local residents, some places naturally suffer a little bit of loss.
Faced with Dain's doubts, Casio said eloquently: "It makes sense to divide it into two parts. On the one hand, it is to facilitate the census and information verification, and on the other hand, it is to increase their sense of belonging. ”
Although it was the first time that Master Dain had heard of the census and what sense of belonging in Cassio's mouth, it did not prevent him from understanding the meaning of these words.
Maester Daine didn't interrupt Casio, but continued to look at Casio, waiting for Casio to explain.
"Many lords believe that all the people who come to live in my realm are my people. But in reality, this is not entirely true. ”
"Those people lived in the land of the lords, and obeyed the law. But in reality, whenever something happens like a disaster, they move to other places. They're unstable!"
Hearing this, Master Dain seemed to have an understanding: "Therefore, Your Royal Highness, you have given them identity information and distinguished them from outsiders, so that they can have a sense of identity with their environment?"
Casio smiled and nodded: "This question is very abstract to explain, to put it simply, I want the residents of my territory to recognize their identity as independent residents of Greenwater Town from now on, and this identity is not something that can be obtained by living in Greenwater Town for a period of time!"
After a pause, Casio concluded, "If you want to truly become a resident of Greenwater, then you must obey the corresponding laws and fulfill your obligations as a local resident!
Maester Dain pondered Casio's words, and then continued, "But in this way, won't we turn away those who want to live here, but don't want to actually join us?"
Casio shook his head: "First of all, there is no way to have the best of both worlds in this world. In the second place, the law which I have drawn up, although it is convenient for the inhabitants of the country, does not create an overly conspicuous gap between the two sides, and excludes those of whom you have spoken. ”
Hearing this, Master Dain carefully recalled some of the restrictions he had just seen on the template, and indeed felt that what Casio said was not wrong.
After thinking about it, Casio added the last sentence: "Our ideal is to be independent from the Duchy of Doran, so from now on, we should cultivate the minds of these inhabitants as people who are independent of the Duchy of Doran!"
"And those who just want to seek refuge in this place, take benefits, but don't want to pay, and even want to harm Lushui Town, will be punished for treason!"
Dain's heart sank, and then he realized that Casio's method was to distribute some restraint methods that originally belonged only to the middle and upper classes of the country to people at all levels.
Originally, this method had good and bad results, but now combined with Casio's way of dividing the inhabitants into these two categories and treating them differently, it is clear that the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages.
After thinking about it for a while, Master Dain vaguely felt that such a country with strong binding force and cohesion seemed to be a little different from any existing country in his impression.
But where this difference is, Dain still can't figure it out.
After finalizing the main thing, Casio waved his hand and asked Master Dain to carry it out.
Before leaving, Master Dain hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Your Royal Highness, have you really decided to go to Lime City in person? ”
Casio's plan to go to Lyme City had already been discussed with everyone in advance, and he tried his best to achieve his goal, but he didn't expect that Master Dane would mention this matter at this time.
"Master Dain, I understand your concerns. But believe me, I'm not the kind of person who likes to rely on luck. Lime City will soon learn about the ore vein, and if it unites with O'Gates, it will form a huge hidden danger to Greenwater Town. ”
"Therefore, instead of waiting for them to come to me for trouble, it is better for me to solve this hidden danger first!"
Seeing Casio's resolute attitude, Master Dain nodded, said no more, and withdrew.
