Chapter 247: The Oath of Divine Might
In the month of harvest (October), Riverrun ushered in another bumper harvest, and the granary in the inner city was guarded by a special person, piled with sun-dried wheat, and the air was filled with the fragrance of grain soaked in the sun. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
For the pioneer territory, which has been established for less than a year, a large amount of food means a tangible reward for hard work, and everyone firmly believes that tomorrow's life will be better, and is willing to work hard for this goal.
It's just that a warm and rich life often makes people unconsciously lazy, and then the approach of the winter season that drips into ice also leads to many people preferring to stay in the city, but fortunately, the pioneering atmosphere is still very strong, and the demand for repairing and renovating houses is great, which gives birth to new industries.
Lu Bin seized this opportunity to meet the needs of the people, and the craftsman guild directly under the city hall took the lead in launching a simple school related to the construction industry related to the professions of stonemason, bricklayer, plasterer, carpenter, etc., to learn various industry skills.
It is taught by a special person, with the aim of cultivating a group of qualified craftsmen as quickly as possible, rather than being made by civilians who make cameos with experience.
Secondly, Lu Bin took the opportunity to promote the common units of measurement in the north, including the most important rut spacing, the standard size of stone bricks, and made standard measuring tools from precious Mithril and Adamantine - weighing weights, measuring rulers, etc.
The originally chaotic trading market, thanks to the introduction of fair scales, although not quickly clarified overnight, at least introduced an officially certified business order that is in the interests of all.
As a result of the construction of Riverrun, a large number of builders quickly spawned, and the guild's traditional model of passing on the master and apprentice gradually dismantled and was replaced by more efficient schools.
Although the old craftsmen were very dissatisfied and resistant, they were too few in number and not loud enough in the face of the very powerful "Lord Rez", so they were quickly drowned out by the voices of approval.
Wise men quickly opted for a dignified surrender after watching the wind, and they worked as instructors in various schools, teaching them the skills of rapid development, and thus pulling together a larger construction team than ever before, and becoming "foremen" for the renovation of contracted houses.
Among them, the best even began to contact the official to undertake the construction of the municipal engineering of the lucrative Rushing City, and since then they have broken away from the lowly "artisan household" class and become the "contract foreman" on a par with the factory owner.
These people, gradually freed from heavy manual labor, with their nimble brains, relied on those who followed them, or were managed by them, to earn more rewards, and slowly enriched the middle class of Riverrun City, together with the employees of the town hall who maintained a decent life on wages and salaries.
Winter is approaching, there is no work in the farmland, and the farmers who leave the village and manor enter Riverrun, either actively or passively, enter these simple schools, learn a skill in a short period of time, and soon join the growing industrial team.
Mending Moon (November)
There is no shortage of smart people in the Pioneer Territory, especially the big people who have the resources, who see the benefits of the school, and at the same time see the new situation in Riverrun City every day, and value the rich returns, and have invested in this area.
Lu Bin was in charge of leading the policy, starting with himself and leading others to follow the model, which became a model for the think tanks of the Archon Oric Tyrese camp to study.
"The family also has private learning, for the children of the main family and branches, the descendants of the minor nobles of the vassals, the knights, who are also eligible to enter, and in the process of learning, establish a solid friendship, and lay the foundation for future dependence. ”
"The descendants of the nobility naturally inherit everything and become nobles. The descendants of the servants will continue to carry on the family business and continue to serve the Lord's house, which is the consensus of all. However, the schools that are now popping up like mushrooms in Riverrun City have begun to vaguely break the shackles because they are facing the public. ”
"Fortunately, this kind of thing is only limited to the commoners at the bottom, and even if someone rises up and enters our class, it is only a small handful of people, and it does not affect the existing pattern, let alone the sacrosanct aristocratic order. ”
Listening to the discussions of his staff, comparing what "Lord Rez" had said, and what he had seen with his own eyes recently, he was sure that the new gadgets such as schools and exams would not affect the interests of the nobles at all, let alone the Tyrese family at the top of the North.
The son of Thor involuntarily pondered: "If this evolution continues, there are several tangible examples where the commoners at the bottom will see the hope of getting rid of their own class and work harder. Hopefully, it's a really scary thing. ”
Riverrun, a variety of privately established schools, due to the lack of relevant experience, especially skilled instructors, after a short period of uproar, the once enthusiasm gradually cooled.
Fast-growing industrial workers quickly split their ranks, unqualified private academies were automatically eliminated, and the city-to-city farmers who voted with their feet left the inferior goods with no room to survive, and those who survived were the industry benchmarks who imparted real talents.
Lu Bin made another move, gathered relevant personnel, and began to compile the general textbooks of Rushing City, precipitating the experience accumulated by everyone into words, transforming it into knowledge that everyone can learn, and organizing a simple exam to admit the best of them to enter the engineering construction department of the city hall.
As soon as this matter was implemented, public opinion in Riverrun City was in an uproar, but with the strength of "Lord Rez", few people really dared to challenge it, even the archon Oryk Tyrese did not want to clash with his friends head-on for this trivial matter, not that he did not dare but that it was not worth it.
Under Lu Bin's personal care, a few people who are considered city hall officials quickly adapted to the new environment and gained a firm foothold, and at the same time, through school studies and formal examinations, the policy of entering the city hall has also successfully survived the embryonic stage, becoming the goal recognized and expected by most people.
Lu Bin quietly used the sausage-cutting tactic to send the people who were affected by the New Deal and profited from it to the city hall, slowly diluting the influence of the Tyrese family who dominated the place.
With the establishment of schools such as arithmetic, business, and tax law, a group of talents have emerged in Riverrun, and people from all walks of life have passed the exams specially prepared for them.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Lord Rez used his influence to divide the officials of the town hall into "administrative officials" and "technical officials", turning a monopoly city hall into a dual structure, which was quickly recognized by everyone.
The nobles of the northern realms originally wanted to see the sudden rise of Riverrun City climb too high and fall to the ground due to the lack of necessary management and governance talents, but winter has not yet passed, and this new pioneer territory has completely changed its appearance.
Not only are the various functional areas of the inner city grandiose, but even the dwellings of the residents of the outer city have been upgraded from "shacks" dominated by grass and trees to "buildings" made of bricks and stones. Businessmen with a vision for business investment have even built multi-storey "apartments" and even exclusive single-family "villas" on the list of real estate developments.
A large number of "open-air markets" were upgraded to "comprehensive markets" in designated areas after consolidating resources, and the commercial management office of the city hall calmed down the chaotic market transactions by fair scales, and formulated relevant laws and regulations to protect the nascent order.
All these changes are attributed to the "Lord Rez" by the do-gooders, especially those who have benefited from the policies he has introduced, and they are full of praise and publicity.
Through a series of operations, Lu Bin guided Riverrun City to prosperity, and most of the low-level civilians who were grateful to Dade even prayed sincerely every day, hoping that the kindness given by "Lord Rez" would continue.
There is only a thin line between prayer and faith, and if there is a difference, then prayer is more pure and crude, unlike faith that has a precise goal.
If Lu Bin was just an ordinary "legendary mage", he would have attracted the force of goodness and order, but he has the theocratic weapon of the "Commercial Protector God" and the ability to travel in the realm, which can absorb the power of these prayers and make the light of the heart grow stronger and stronger.
The reason why Lu Bin didn't have any expectations for the legendary shattered godhead and the lost artifact was here, just focusing on the "Double Snake Staff" he already had in his hand, because of the daily harvest of thousands of people's wishes, he not only became more and more perfect, but also gave the holder of the soul binding new abilities.
Kamui.Oath!
