When all the people were around, the gate of the castle slowly opened.

The open square outside the castle is about a kilometer or two away from the castle gates, and Oran swaggers out in his troika.

Expressing your majesty and force to your people, and keeping them fed once in a while, will make them obedient, Oran believes.

"Your Excellency."

When Oran reached the tent that the servants and soldiers had set up for him, hundreds of the people, young and old, knelt down.

Orlan hooked his finger up, and the men stood up under the soldier's gaze.

Lords' Open-Air Meetings - Former lords often meet two or three times a year, and are basically mobilization speeches, telling everyone that the Vikings have come to find trouble again.

So today, these people with numb and empty faces are thinking the same way.

Someone clenched himself and managed to save it - a few copper plates and broken silver in a shriveled wallet.

Others thought that the food they had just saved would be rotten in their stomachs rather than being "snatched" by the Vikings or "borrowed" by the lords, and they would eat it all at the end of the meeting, and as for the days to come, ...... Who cares so much.

The carriage landed on the ground, and before going up the erected steps, and when he passed by a few of the lords, Oran also saw that these people's teeth were all broken, and their eyes were covered with a layer of fog, and they were covered with sickness, and they were a little touched.

Looking at him, Oran pointed to a naked upper-body resident of the out-of-town district, and the soldiers who maintained order in the field approached to bring the man out.

"My lord, I didn't make a mistake!"

The man was half frightened, and the people around him quickly dispersed.

After the man was lifted, he stepped up the steps about a meter above the level ground, on which sat Oran, his butler Nanamp, and two sword-wielding servants.

As soon as the man came up, he knelt down and kowtowed, the majesty of the lord had long been engraved in the blood of some of the lords who had suffered losses, and Orlan just didn't say anything, and he could also scare the man who had stolen at a young age and was imprisoned in a dungeon.

"Get up and go around in circles."

After Oran finished speaking, the man saw that nothing had happened, so he slowly calmed down and did so.

The man spun around seven or eight times, for the lord didn't say a few turns, until Orlan called a stop.

"What is your profession?"

"Me? I'm a wooller, my lord. ”

"Then don't talk about woolen clothes, why don't you have a good coarse coat?"

"I have it, on a normal day...... I don't want to wear it. ”

The man stuttered a little, frightened by Orlan and the murderous soldiers beside him.

"Let's go down."

Then Orlan randomly clicked on an old farmer, this old farmer has calluses on his hands and feet, he gets up early every day and is greedy for darkness, but his whole body is thin and his bones can be seen, he has a family, and there are no days in a year when he can eat enough.

Oran asked the old farmer a few words, and then let him go down.

These two people shut up, and they didn't have any resonance or thoughts, and most people lived this kind of life.

Oran began to use the topic to play, and said, "Whoever does business in my territory in the future will have a new system 'guild' to help." ”

What is a guild?

Everyone looked at each other, and Southamp began to explain that Oran was thirsty.

"Listen, this is to make your life better, to increase the production of local goods, to help you buy raw materials, tools, to provide soldier protection when you travel far and wide, so that your interests and security can be maximized."

These words of Southamp are the same as the scriptures, and the people do not fully understand them, but they understand a little.

But this protection? Is it the meaning of overcharging commodity tax?

Oran watched the people of Mune turn into wood, snatched the words, and said, "What's your favorite thing?" The wool of the six countries of the South? Iron coal in Scotland? Wheat in Wales? Timber from Ireland?"

Oran pointed to the next step in the audience, and the man was stunned, "I want it all, I like it all, my lord." ”

"I like these things too, but they are very cumbersome and expensive, but in the Franks, and even further south, in the warmer lands, such as Eastern Rome, the Iberian Peninsula (the two regions), and the Apennine Peninsula (Italy), the local lords can easily obtain them."

Why?

They have the protection of powerful lords, advanced technology, warm climate, and flat terrain.

What about us?

Once planted, as soon as the wheat seedlings landed, I thought that I should harvest it quickly before the Vikings came, otherwise I would be afraid every day.

When you get a piece of clothing, you have to wear it for a specific celebration to avoid destruction,

The dead skin under his feet is harder than a stone, and he may step on a 'nail', and the 'latter' will sink into the earth.

Our army has formed an alliance with Sir Ghazi, and in a little while, the whole of Durham County will be safe, and you will pass through a certain river checkpoint, and no one will come out to collect it.

You may have several pieces of clothing in your dilapidated house, and the porridge you drink is not full of sparse porridge water.

The guilds will consolidate your industries, provide financial cooperation, and obtain insufficient raw materials with the help of the collars, and stipulate the number of helpers and apprentices ......"

Throughout the speech, Oran established the following guild statutes,

1. Consolidation of merchants and the cultivation of land.

Two: Orlans protect the guild members.

3. Establish a systematic workflow and tool usage method.

Fourth: regular sampling of product quality.

Five: Orlans set prices, and it is forbidden to bargain and raise prices.

Six: Establish an apprenticeship system.

Seven: Anyone who wants to do business must become a member of the guild, and the consent of the Orlan Lord is required.

8. Hold a leadership meeting every six months.

Oran has established an eight-point system to control the guild in all aspects.

The industry can be organized in the short term to scale efficiency, in the historical memory of previous lives.

The rise of guilds was mainly to resist the oppression of lords, the destruction of thieves, the price of competitors, etc.

At this time, Orlan helped to handle all these activities, forming a guild to serve him.

No organization's system is perfect, and it will have to be adjusted over time.

"Apprentice?"

The mention of this word makes the eyes of many teenagers light up.

In this era, there are so few job opportunities, most people can only farm, very few people have access to different fields, and the overall unemployment rate is as high as more than 70%.

When there is more unemployment, there will be more crimes, which is why many lords use strict laws and regulations to govern and refuse to relax.

Oran asks children or teenagers to ask questions – explain for themselves, but teenagers at this age are timid and no one speaks first.

Oran saw a few children in the crowd touching their bellies, it seemed that they were hungry, and after more than ten seconds, finally a thin young man asked out loud, his voice hoarse, as if he had been injured?

"My lord, can you become an apprentice know what it's like to have a full stomach and burp?"

This was funny and pitiful, and Orlan looked at it quietly and asked, "How did you hurt your throat?"

The boy lowered his head, not daring to look at the lord, and said, "I was caught by the Vikings for fun, tied me to my horse, and dragged along the way, and then I fainted, and when I woke up, I was thrown into a pile of corpses, and I survived eating rotting food, and after that, that's what I said." ”

This kind of suffering happened to many teenagers, and this boy was lucky enough not to die - but his family all died under the butcher's knife, and he lived like a beggar, begging as he went, all the way here.

After the boy spoke, Oran said, "Children younger than him can get a bowl of porridge if they ask." ”

The question was immediately enthusiastic, and Orlan first asked the young man to take the young man aside and continue to explain......
