Valentine, Leonardo da Vinci, who was temporarily the Minister of Culture, received the task of 'making a helios uniform' from Ted, and it took him nearly half a month to still not find the best solution.

Among the costumes that have been designed, either the bells and whistles do not conform to the solemn temperament of the sun god, or the production is cumbersome, and there are too many folds and patterns that are not suitable for mass production.

And tomorrow is the deadline, if it is not completed, then my position as the Minister of Culture will not be able to be regularized at all...

After thinking about it, Leonardo da Vinci decided to break the boat, throw away all the creative results, and empty his mind for inspiration...

Half an hour later, he slowly opened his eyes!

After this careful consideration, he finally chose a minimalist style, using the Empire's basic citizen lengthened costume, sewing a cloak on the back as a model, and the rest, just make some small changes, and then set the appropriate icon!

He took a long breath, took out a large sheet from the stacked straw paper, wrote the words 'Sun God Cult' on it, and then combined it with the elements of the lord's order to do self-play~

"Turkey, the sun..."

In order to unite the relationship between the Heliosian cult and the turkey, Leonardo da Vinci embroidered this magical creature on it.

And then... Because of the Helios Cult, he added the sun to it and put it on the turkey's head...

"Huh!? This... The needle doesn't poke, it turns out that it's so simple! Did my brain get into the water before? The art of the complex... Now it seems that there is no need at all! ”

This time, Leonardo da Vinci showed a satisfied smile, the logo in front of him was distinct, and the effect was outstanding with the popular style clothing! Be concise and clear!

Zoom out and place it on the chest marker, with the words 'Helioscult' at the bottom and a turkey against the scorching sun!

In this way, as long as the basic clothing is mass-produced, the cloak is sewn later, and finally the finished icon is sewn on, almost no manual labor is required, and the machine can be completed, which meets the requirements of mass production and cheapness!

"The chest tag is on the left! Let the symbol of the sun god be close to the hearts of the faithful! I'm so smart! ”

After only ten minutes, Leonardo da Vinci had a sample!

"It's finally time to make a deal!"

...

As for why the turkey was chosen as the mythical bird...

That's because this thing is especially easy to feed in this world, it is productive and it is not easy to get sick, as long as you feed them, you can leave the rest alone!

You don't even need to shovel, because the small turkey will eat it quickly after the large turkey is convenient, saving a lot of trouble, and you only need to clean it with water regularly once a week~

Because of the mass production and breeding of turkeys, the entire northern territory and even the entire continent will quickly eat cheap meat!

And Ted will also take this opportunity to send turkey meat to the people, come to the mortal world in the name of the sun god, deign to be a divine envoy, and open the power of nonsense!

The turkey is compared to a sacred bird, saying that it is a gift from the sun god, and that it is only a species created to feed hungry believers...

Of course, other people can also raise turkeys, but the turkeys they raise are not 'special treatment', and they can't eat them at all, and they can't eat them when they are cooked, so they can't swallow them!

But when this thing got into Ted's hands, it was immediately different!

There is a seasoning prepared by Uncle Makarov, pickled, even if it is chopped rotten shoes or stinky socks! Mixed with this heavy seasoning, it will become a fairy delicacy!

Not to mention this turkey...

In addition to eating turkey, Ted also learned the funny operation of Lao Mei, that is, on Thanksgiving, in order to thank the sun god for his gift, and also to thank this kind of divine bird that fills everyone's stomach...

The oracle, also known as Ted, would perform a large ceremony to pardon a turkey in front of all the congregation so that it would not have to be eaten...

This move was to counter the original Thanksgiving Day of the Empire, so that when everyone eats, they look at the cheap turkey meat in the middle of the table and immediately think of the gift of the sun god! By the way, thank him for making meat affordable for everyone in the empire! Thus diluting the original meaning of 'thank God' on Imperial Thanksgiving.

...

When things in Blackwater City came to an end, Ted was lying on his chair drinking an iced Coke, and said with emotion: "Organizing your own team and seeking people with the same ideas is good!" ”

Find a team you can trust and gather enough people, then he doesn't have to do everything himself!

As long as the work is distributed according to the responsibilities, let everyone think of ways and work together, it is definitely better than being on the scene as a leader.

And Ted... You can also have your own time, do what you want to do, and you can also squeeze out a lot of time to spend with your wife!

Taking a sip of ice Coke, Ted flipped to the next report.

[The drink order from Blackwater City has now been cleared: 100,000 cases of Coke...]

Ted never imagined that the first batch of officially traded commodities would be such a thing, neither a small commodity nor an energy material...

It's happy water...

"Don't tell me... In the end, I will conquer the world with Coke..."

While thinking, Leonardo da Vinci arrived at the lord's office with the finished items.

"Oh? Leonardo da Vinci, have I done the task I gave you? I remember tomorrow is the deadline..."

Leonardo da Vinci unhurriedly put the samples on the table, while he himself stood aside and picked up one of them to explain: "My lord, I have designed a total of 60 models during this time, but each one is not as good as this simple style, which is not only easy to remember, but also clear at a glance!" ”

"It's also very recognizable, and at a glance, you can tell that the person wearing this dress is a member of the Sun God Cult..."

"In order to facilitate production, I took the common costume of the citizens of the Empire, stretched them out, and added a cape, and in order to distinguish between duty and class, I also designed several patterns, and I knew the class by just looking at the chest marking..."

"As a costume, there will be the words 'Sun God Cult' under the chest mark pattern, the most ordinary members of the church, is the turkey against the scorching sun, the pattern of the middle backbone will be the sun flower, according to the different colors of the flower to distinguish the duties, and the top layer, will be the gold and silver two colors of sunflowers, meaning generosity and charity, followed by the hat..."

"In addition, I am afraid that the production capacity is not enough, and the separation structure is adopted, and the chest labels can be produced separately and finally sewn together, so the output of the chest labels will be much greater than that of clothing, and these chest labels can also be directly pasted or embroidered on the clothes as daily identification, of course, there will also be exquisite badges made of stainless steel..."

This kind of design, simple and dexterous, you can wear a teaching uniform when you gather, and you only need to put a logo on your daily life, seeing this, Ted gave a thumbs up to Leonardo da Vinci: "It's decided, it seems that you artists are still good at design, but I think it's better to cancel the hat, because it's not necessary..."

"No problem, my lord!"

This design looks pretty good, but this hat with a point, Ted will always be inexplicably associated with the FFF group, in order to avoid suspicion, by the way, to reduce the degree of cumbersomeness, it is better to cancel the hat directly.

This style designed by Leonardo da Vinci, based on the existing blueprint, can even be worn in winter, and can also be used as a snow camouflage when it snows...

The uniform is a kind of oversized coat with a cape, which can be worn by anyone with a slight cut, and only needs to be produced in standard sizes to cover most people.

In order to reduce the trouble of pants, he also referred to the design of the battle robe, which can directly cover the legs with an overly long robe, so that there is no need to worry about the confusion caused by the different colors of the pants, and it will not affect the collective beauty.

The first call of the Helios Cult is 'equality', in order to reduce the differences between individuals, so that everyone wears the same uniform, so that everyone will not be excluded due to differences, and at the same time, it will strengthen cohesion.

This is especially important, because the religion in the empire, every meeting, is a competition of financial resources, there is no piety to speak of, it is all about who is richer!

It seems that the richer will be given priority in God's favor...

Of course, this is also true, after all, if you have money, you can light the most expensive candles in the church, and you can even get the cross that the priest has consecrated!

In order to oppose the religion of the Empire, Ted did the opposite, stipulating uniform clothing so that the blessings of the sun god were equal and just!

Anyway, the ritual is to bask in the sun outside, if the heat is all hot together, if it is too hot, then less sunbath...

From this point of view, very equal!

...

If you want to mass-produce, you have to get an approval from the town hall, and Ted has the authority to approve anything, and a few pieces of clothing are not a problem!

"Ahem... This is a batch, take it to the factory in the east of the city, let them produce 100,000 sets first, I remember that our factory has just been built, this is their first order! ”

Leonardo da Vinci remembered... A month ago, if you wanted to do something, you had to not only take the approval slip, but also take the money, so Da Vinci made the gesture of 'money' and asked by the way: "But... My lord, who will pay for this? I use your approval slip without any money? ”

Recently, Leonardo da Vinci has been stuffing his head and doesn't know much about the changes in the outside world.

Since five days ago, the payment method has changed, if there is an order, go directly to the city hall to pay, take the approval of the marketing department, or the administration department to the factory, if you don't want to go, you can also spend some money, let the city hall postman handle it uniformly...

This time, Ted needed Leonardo da Vinci to hand over the approval slip to the factory personally, because it was a big deal and there must be no mistakes.

Inadvertently, Ted noticed that something was wrong with Leonardo da Vinci, and from his tired eyes, he knew that he hadn't rested much recently, and not only that, but looking at his preoccupied appearance, he must have been thinking about something philosophical.

In order to allow him, the Minister of Culture, to continue to serve and not fall at work, Ted signaled him not to stay at home all the time: "You, come out and take a walk when you have nothing to do, the changes in Valentine are obvious to everyone, as long as you don't read the news for three days, you will think that you have crossed over, and you don't have to take money now!" Just take the strips~"

As for the money used to pay for clothing, you can use the money you earn from selling grain from the domain of the Tomato Baron! At the same time, the purchase and consumption also created a lot of taxes, and Baron Tomato also made a wave.

Of course, the money he earned was also Ted's, because he signed a six-month interest-free loan, and in order to get the money as soon as possible, Ted planned to help him, so that he could pay it back in three months!

Leonardo da Vinci put down his work, stretched, and let out a long yawn before he was completely sober: "I know, my lord... I don't have any tasks lately, so I can go out and have a look and find inspiration for my next painting! ”

"No problem! But be careful, don't forget to take a platoon of guards with you when you want to go far away, and try not to go to unaligned areas... If you get into trouble, I'll have to help you out of it, so try to avoid conflicts..."

What Ted just said is half fact, half joke, since he doesn't want him to cause trouble recently, it is better to personally issue the task: "Eh! I remember! You can go and sketch a few sketches of the Fire Tribe, and by the way, get some photos, and leave a souvenir for the livelihood department when the time comes..."

"Huh! Yes, it will also be refreshing for me to experience a different culture and see their ancient and simple civilization! My lord! You're so tall! ”

"Hey, since you think this method is good, then send the note today, and then sleep well, and go tomorrow!"

"Yes, sir! Have a nice day! ”

"You are the same~"

After Da Vinci was finished, Ted suddenly had an idea...

In this era of transportation and communication, everyone has limited ways to understand the news, so it is better to take advantage of the underdeveloped science and technology to rely on their own first-hand scientific and technological advantages to set up a media organization! Start with the newspaper! Then wait for the technological innovation, and then expand more media methods!

When you have a camera, you can even report the news on the spot!

If you can build an organization that can control the right to speak from the very beginning, it will be easier for you to fool the people in the future!

Now that you have this idea, act early!

Although in this period, other people don't have this brain, and even if they have this brain, they don't have the strength to achieve it, but to avoid long nights and dreams, it is better to start first!

Just seize this opportunity and leave this impression in everyone's mind, so that people subconsciously react: 'If you want to know any news, go to the media company that Ted has built!' It's like when you think of communication, you think of penguins!

Once the plan is set, it's time to give the media company a memorable and meaningful name.

"It's better to call... Asahi Media? With that name, you can also connect with the Helios Cult! I'm such a genius! ”

In just a few minutes, Ted made the proposal, and then walked out the door with the paper himself and slapped it on Chris's desk.

"Have you been busy lately? Is there anything to do? ”

Chris had recently recruited a new group of people to supplement the town hall, and after sending out the assignments, he was now idle, and he couldn't even do eight hours a day!

For such a workaholic, this is a bad feeling!

"My lord, we have recently increased the number of people, and at the same time, we have also screened a new batch of city hall personnel, and now we are in a state of oversupply... We're also trying to find something to do for ourselves..."

Since they are idle, they can come to help Ted achieve the purpose of 'right to speak': "Ah! In this way, you don't have to find something to do, I have a big deal here, which is enough for you to work~"

After receiving the proposal from Ted, Chris's eyes lit up, and he immediately slapped his thigh and took the lord's hand and said in surprise: "Hey! Your Excellency, you are so wise! As long as we have the right to speak, coupled with our own strength, no one will dare to question us from now on! Even if there is doubt, we will be gagged! ”

That's only half right, it's not enough to have one media company, at least two!

"Eh~Chris, this is not the most correct idea, the best thing to do is to create more than two media companies! Let them export their ideas to the people from a number of different points of view, and only by questioning them will the authenticity be enhanced, and it is better to let the two media create some-for-tat topics to enliven the people's minds..."

"You look at the second page, in addition to Asahi Media, there is also Crescent Media, and there will be more media companies after that, but remember that mainstream media companies, the right to speak must be in our own hands... You also have to take care of Blackwater City, form a Nok Media Alliance, and the person in charge is my father-in-law Raphael, who has been looking for some presence recently, this is just right for him, and his qualifications and experience are enough..."

As the master of this continent, the dragon does not need to do any work, but in order to eat and drink, by the way, to activate the body and mind, increase knowledge, and also to have a little fun in the long life...

So! Coming out and finding something to do is the best choice!

Unlike Francis, who is a man of few words, Raphael seems to be very interested in human life, he runs to the town hall every once in a while, and takes everyone to the restaurant on the street to eat when he has nothing to do, if it were not for the tail and the wings that can fly, it is easy to forget that this is a dragon...

After receiving the task and thinking about it for a while, Chris understood what Ted meant: "Got it! My lord, let's go and get our own newspaper two days later, and on the morning of the third day..."

"If that's the case, that's for the best! But don't forget Blackwater, the news from both places has to be reported..."

"Don't worry, sir! I'll do things, you can rest assured~"

In this world, there should be no more reliable person than Chris, as long as he does things, in the end, he doesn't need to be checked by Ted at all, he only needs to seal and sign.

...

Back in his office, Ted picked up a report on his desk...

According to the observation of the scouts who went out, the wave of refugees closest to Blackwater City had just hunted a batch of wild boars in the mountains, so that everyone had a full meal, but only one meal...

Since the nobles in the middle of the empire are all powerful nobles above the earl, and they are also connected, if the refugees want to rebel, they will be slaughtered in an instant!

This group of refugees can be regarded as recognizing the reality and considering themselves unlucky!

They honestly begged all the way along the mountains, barely survived, and did not suffer many casualties.

At the same time, they also realized that they were most likely abandoned by the Empire, although they were people from the Xueman Empire, the Empire would not treat them as human beings! Even the food that was given out was moldy and no one wanted it...

And the Huck Empire in the south, their situation will not be better than that of refugees, so it will not be beneficial to go south, besides, the two countries are-for-tat, and it is possible to be killed when they meet!

After so long and exhausted, most of the refugees have lost faith in the empire and at the same time have lost hope for life.

In addition, the churches in the territories of the powerful nobility did not put food...

They were very close to the Pope, and their relationship was not ordinary, they knew the Pope's plan from the beginning, and did not distribute food like the Church in the South, but relied on the soldiers of the powerful nobles to close the doors of the church and not accept a single refugee!

They wanted to provide the resources of the General Church and make the Pope's plan succeed! Not even a single piece of food was provided to the refugees, and the priests, in order to drive out the victims as soon as possible, and to clean the church, came forward to say that 'you have been abandoned by God' or 'you are not worthy of God's gifts'.

These actions are, in a sense, good news, since there is no hope for this group of refugees, then Ted can fill the emptiness in the hearts of the refugees in the name of the sun god!

Now, the only problem is the number of refugees, there are 8 waves of refugees, totaling close to 20 million people, with the strength of Ted and Baron Tomato, it is simply impossible to manage such a large number of people.

If it accidentally causes a riot, it is estimated that Baron Tomato will have to kill the refugees again! This time, they have thermal weapons, as well as heavy machine gun mortars, and there are plenty of bullets, and the efficiency of killing mobs will be faster ...

In order to prevent this bloody and cruel scene from happening, Ted can only do his best to fool this group of people as much as possible!

According to calculations, they would reach the outermost part of the Tomato Barony in six days.

During this time, Ted would lead people to plant food in the vicinity to create a kind of 'Because of the gift of the sun god, even in the beginning of spring, the product is abundant enough!' 'The sight.

When the refugees arrived, Ted only needed to be at the border, under the banner of the sun god, to receive the victims!

...

At the same time, the mission of [Strong Northerners] was finally completed, and Ted not only obtained two tubes of injections, but also received an additional 2,000 Star Coins and a raffle card for the perfect completion of the task!

And when he saw the lottery card, Ted remembered that he had accumulated two cards now and hadn't drawn a lottery for a long time!

But Ted is developing very quickly now, so he can't look down on the things in the prize pool, and there will be sooner or later anyway~

"Forget it, just smoke it..."

When he threw the raffle card into the machine, nothing miracles happened.

There are only two purple prizes, one of which is a high-end 4x4 off-road vehicle and the other is a regular bus...

"Hey, I have a car, so I don't have to run back and forth in a truck! Now just drive yourself! ”

As for this bus, Ted has not thought of its use for the time being, because building roads is a troublesome matter, and half of the roads in the north have not been built until now, and only railways are used to support transportation.

So this bus, too, is just a mascot, and can only be thrown to Thomas for him to slowly dismantle, and then get inspiration to copy a batch.

When there is time to build roads, these will come in handy.

...

After lunch, Ted went to the office to continue his work.

At this time, a document was sent in: 'Steve left Valentine two days later to report on his work in the imperial capital [Deherim]. ’

"Shhhh Oh no, I almost forgot about this stunned thing! ”

Ted gasped, quickly put on his coat, and walked down the road to the cottage he had given to Steve.

"Steve! Are you there? ”

Inside the house, there was no strange sound, because Wachena was pregnant, and Steve didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary, for the sake of the soon-to-be-born child, Steve planned to be a good man~

After Steve opened the door, Ted yawned and asked, "You're going to the imperial capital the day after tomorrow, are you going to have any preparations?" ”

"Ready? I'm wearing plate armor! With a Thomson submachine gun and a pistol in his arms! Who am I afraid of? Whoever dares to find fault with me, I will kill him in minutes! ”

To be able to say such a thing, Ted only felt that his eyes were dark...

"Hey... Stunned! If you're okay in the afternoon, just talk to Wazena, and then follow me to the training ground, I remember that Muller has just finished training the last recruits, and he will teach tactical training the day after tomorrow, so he has time this afternoon and can give you a special training! ”

Steve looked puzzled, took out a pistol from his bag and asked, "Special training?" I have a gun, and I need special training!? ”

Ted rolled his eyes, stuck his head into the villa and shouted, "Miss Wazena! I'll borrow your husband for an afternoon and train him so that he doesn't die! ”

"No problem!"

After receiving the agreement, Ted dragged Steve out of the villa and headed to the training ground.

...

Inside the training ground, with an hour to go before Muller's final lesson in training recruits, Ted planned to give Steve a change of gear.

"Steve, you're going to have to change your gear, and as I said before, I'll give you better gear."

"Oh? What are you going to change for me? ”

"Judging by your identity and what may happen, I chose these equipment, you can take a look..."

Steve is the prince of the empire, and I don't know how many people around him want his life! Especially when the current situation is chaotic, it may be cold inadvertently!

Ted plans to make good use of Steve's tool man in the future! So he can't die!

But given that he is rather silly and sweet, and that he sometimes has cerebral palsy, Ted carefully selects a few life-saving and easy-to-hide equipment from the 007 equipment list.

"Steve, you go back to the imperial capital, the existing guns are too bulky, they must be replaced!"

After saying that, Ted purchased several pieces of equipment suitable for spy warfare from the system.

"Your Thomson can't take it with you, and the .45ACP used by that gun can't even penetrate the plate armor at a long distance, in order to adapt to combat in various environments, and also for ease of carrying, I'll replace it with this one for you!"

With that, Ted handed the weapon to Steve.

"I personally recommend it, and at present, as a personal defense weapon, there is no better one!"

The black plastic gun body, as well as the strange sci-fi shooting, made Steve scratch his head: "This... It looks like a weapon of the future, and it really feels like it! ”

"Of course! It's called the FNP90, and like your favorite Thomson, it has a capacity of 50 rounds, but this gun isn't that bloated! ”

"The gun is only 50 centimeters long, 30 centimeters shorter than Thomson, and his appearance is like a small box, hanging on the body is not obtrusive, the whole body is made of engineering plastic, more flexible, lighter, and only three kilograms when fully loaded with bullets! The muzzle velocity is 850m/s, which is 3 times more than Thomson's 282..."

"In order to be able to effectively kill targets with armor, 5.7x28mm ammunition is used, which can easily penetrate the standard thickness of mild steel plates in the north at a distance of 30m, and for those knights wearing plate armor, you can kill them from 200 meters away!"

"Uh... You've said so much, can you give me this gun? ”

"Of course, he's already yours!"
