Chapter 1117: The Codex Reader, the Far Away Number has arrived
Even in order to let the onlookers see more clearly, Xia Duo also adjusted the angle sideways, and then said the key words on the pedestal of the Codex sculpture in front of him, which resembled a giant wall:
"Code, land law!"
It seemed to be a pause, and then the familiar voice of Taling appeared in Xia Duo's ears:
"The Great Xia Code, the Land Management Law—
"Article 1: This Law is enacted in accordance with the will of the lords in order to strengthen land management, protect and develop land resources, make rational use of land, effectively protect cultivated land, and promote the sustainable development of the territorial economy.
"Article 2, all the lands of the Great Xia Territory, including those that exist and will be, belong to the ......
“……”
Xia Duo listened silently, nodded from time to time, and then looked at the text of the code on the pedestal of the sculpture, the land law was not on this side, but this did not prevent Ta Ling from reading aloud.
Before he had finished listening to it all, Xia Duo began to ask again, but this time he changed his approach:
"Codex, I want to ask about the future taxation of the territory!"
The code cannot be omitted as a key word to call Taling, but later he does not directly ask about a certain law, but inserts the key word into the questioning statement.
This did not cause confusion in Taling's identification, and he answered almost the next moment when Xia Duo asked:
"The Great Xia Code, the Law on the Administration of Tax Collection—
"Article 1,......
“……”
This time, Xia Duoduo listened for a while, because on this side of the pedestal of the code sculpture he was now on, there happened to be the text of the tax law.
While he corresponded to the text of the tax law, he listened to Taling read aloud, and felt that he really had a bit of an e-reader sense of déjà vu.
However, unlike the e-reader on Earth, the text of the Codex on the base of the sculpture does not change color according to the reading progress of the tower, but is still the color of the material of the sculpture itself.
Although the inscriptions are distinguishable from the blue-black walls around them due to the reflection of light, they are inconspicuous.
Xia Duo only looked at it for a moment, and then he felt that something was wrong for his eyes, and he immediately understood that he had to apply some light coating to these words that were not very friendly to reading to highlight them.
However, instead of doing it now, he continued to do further testing:
"Codex, the money I hid at home was stolen by a neighbor."
This time, Shado set up a situation, he knew that Taling could understand this sentence and find the corresponding article in the code, but-
But Taling replied:
"Please go to the police station and report the crime!"
Xia Duo was not surprised by this, because this is what he set up, and the code sculpture could not replace the trial, justice, investigation and other institutions in his planning, but only for the popularization of law.
If there are people who encounter this situation in the future and want to know the cost of committing crimes in their neighbors, they can also continue to ask about the provisions of the code on private property, property rights, trials, and punishments.
Giving the people the opportunity to think and practice on their own, instead of being all done by Taling, and only getting a momentary emotional stimulation for himself is completely Xia Duo's deep love for the people, not fooling.
After all, the full text of the code has been released clearly, and if you really want to fool you, you won't use such low-level means.
……
After a brief test, Xia Duo found no serious problems, basically met his previous design requirements, and as for some minor flaws, he was able to solve them before the Codex Square was built.
Now that the Codex Sculpture was ready for use, Xia Duo felt that there was no need to wait until after the field conferring ceremony to open it to the people, and it could be opened now.
So he hurriedly contacted Leiden: "Leiden, come to the altar square." ”
"Your Excellency!"
Just a few seconds after the interrogation, Xia Duo heard Leiden's voice, and just when he was still wondering how Leiden learned the teleportation technique, Leiden had already opened his mouth to explain:
"My lord, I just received a notice that you have conjured a large sculpture in the altar square, and I rushed over immediately."
The government hall is less than fifty meters away from the altar square, and it is only a few steps away, Xia Duo nodded, indicating understanding, and then ordered Leiden:
"The use of the Codex sculpture is similar to what I told you before, the trigger keyword is still 'Code', you stay here to teach the people to use it, it's not a few days this month, make reasonable use of the Codex sculpture, so that the people can familiarize themselves with and understand the laws and regulations of the territory as soon as possible."
"Yes, sir!"
"I don't have to worry about you!"
Xia Duo encouraged him a few words, and was about to leave, but suddenly heard someone on the north side of the square shouting "A boat is coming", he immediately stopped and looked north, at this point in time, there is a boat coming here? Isn't that the "Far Away"!
"Layton!"
"My lord, what else do you command?"
"It may be that the 'Far Away' has arrived, and you have people go to the docks to have a look, and if so, the people on board, including the slaves, will be well housed."
"Yes."
Leyton then ordered the clerk who had called him to the plaza to go to the docks to see what was going on, while he himself gathered a group of lords in the plaza to introduce the Codex sculpture to the lords.
Seeing this, Xia Duo didn't stay any longer, he was here, Leiden didn't care, but the leaders might not dare to ask questions.
……
Before returning to the Tower of Time, Xia Duo flew high into the air and looked north, there was no doubt that it was indeed the "Far Away", and in the distance, he could even see a few small people in flower clothes standing at the bow of the ship.
It seems that those people are the bards he had recruited in Severnton, the owner of the "House of the Drunkards" in the port district.
East side of the Tower of Time.
Shado was left in the ruins, the restoration of the magic net was in the final stages, this was not the area where the eight arcanists had worked before, and the Tower of Time was on the side, so there were no temporary structures here.
Alberke stomped very casually on an elven chaise longue in the ruins, half-squinting and frowning, as if he had reached a pinch.
"I don't know if Alberk can do it!"
Xia Duo observed the state of the magic net around him, and at the same time he pinched a cold sweat at Abberk, this is already the end of the restoration work, if everything goes well, it can be completed today.
If this Lost Lock Ruins only appeared after Xia Duo received the Elven Repair Method, then it would only get easier and easier to repair it in the end, but this is not the case.
It had been repaired by eight Arcanists for more than a year, and it was inevitable that there would be some parts that had been forcibly combed, so the more you got to the end, the more obvious these hidden dangers would become.
If it is not handled properly, it is likely to evolve into a dead and silent area of the magic net.
Provided, of course, that is, not handled properly.
In fact, the dead and silent area of the magic net is not so easy to appear, and the magic net itself also has the inertia of recovery, as long as Alberke strictly follows Xia Duo's guidance, there is a high probability that the worst situation will not occur.
Otherwise, Xia Duo would not have been relieved to let Alberke do this last step, but it was inevitable to worry.
