It was already dark, and fine snow was falling on the top of the sinkhole, turning into droplets before reaching the ground.

In a hole at the bottom of the pit, Rand was still sitting on a stone platform, holding a large stack of papers in his hand, and by the light of the magic around him, he sometimes looked down at something, and sometimes looked at the thorn elves who were still busy in the air.

"Rand? What are you doing here? The voice of the dragon girl came from behind.

Turning her head to look over, Gureya Blue Dragon was wearing a spider gauze dress, and her already delicate body was wrapped in white sand, which looked even more graceful, in addition to the usual headdress and hand ornaments, the two horns and the tip of the tail were also decorated with magic ornaments.

The appearance of the dragon girl tugged at Rand's heartstrings at once, leaving his brain stuck and speechless.

"I heard that His Excellency Golkesh looked for you in the afternoon?" The dragon girl didn't look closely at Rant's eyes, but just sat on the stone platform leaning on him, her tail naturally wrapping around Rand's legs, "Did he say something that made you uncomfortable?"

He was thousands of years old, older than Her Majesty Tyrianna, and for him, whoever sat on the throne could sit on the throne, and the most important thing was for Dragon's Tooth City to surpass the Imperial Capital. ”

After speaking, Gurea realized that Rand's gaze had been falling on top of her head.

"Look here! Look here! The dragon girl's tail stretched out mischievously between the two, watching Rand subconsciously reach the tip of his tail, and said with a smile, "You haven't grown up, you actually stare at people's tails and horns." ”

"I really haven't looked at it in detail before, but now I think it's very beautiful!" Rand was tapped on the head by his tail and said with a grin, only to find that Greya's face was already red and about to vomit.

The two frolicked, and Rand finally landed on Grea's lap, still clutching the end of her tail in his hands.

Knowing Rant's hard work in the past few days, Gruya said while caressing Rant's head: "Cardinal said that you have been too busy lately, and she has a lot of things to decide for you. ”

"Look, aren't they?" Rand patted the large stack of papers beside him.

"These ...... What are they? The dragon girl picked up a few pages of paper, and all she saw were names, biographies, and official positions.

"Do you really want to know?" Rand was a little surprised.

"Why not?"

"Wendy, they all avoided when they saw these documents," Rand said with a smile, "The future official system of the Galloping Horse Kingdom, the personnel appointment of the territory, the military merits, the knighthood, the division of the territory, and the industrial planning of nearly 15 cities in the next 5 years, the distribution of 20 commercial routes, 15 shipping routes, and three horizontal and two vertical magic nets on the entire plain, this is probably it." ”

"Good fellow, this is going to build a whole country!"

"That's right, we're just going to build a kingdom," Rand nodded, "but the most troublesome thing is the first few items, especially the official system, official positions, and personnel." ”

Rand's tone gradually became lazy, and he took out three pieces of paper, on which various graphics were densely drawn: "Although our territory is a whole plain, it is actually two brands, one is the barbarian galloping horse tribe, which will be established as the galloping horse khanate in the future; The second is the Dukedom of Night Qicheng of the Terrans, which will be established as the Galloping Horse Kingdom in the future.

The advantage of one set of people and two brands is that the Imperial Treasury Department cannot manage the accounts of the Galloping Horse Khanate, and the Galloping Horse Khanate can also accept orcs, merfolks, and river tribe finless porpoise people as officials, which is more flexible than the management of the Galloping Horse Kingdom. But the Galloping Horse Kingdom also has its own advantages, that is, it can be recognized by the empire and the elven tribes. ”

"At present, my idea of the official system of the Galloping Horse Kingdom is to set up three ministers, the prime minister, the imperial minister, and the privy minister, as the three most important ministers directly under the imperial front, and the prime minister as the administrative officer, in charge of various departments, responsible for the implementation of government affairs; As my representative, the Imperial Minister issued various decrees; The Privy Council acts as a military adviser to the Privy Councillor on all matters.

In addition to these three ministers, there are nine ministers under the prime minister, three of whom are in charge of state affairs, rituals, and clans, and the other six ministers are in charge of 24 departments, namely, defense, land, foreign affairs, intelligence, agriculture, industry, commerce, transportation, personnel, urban development, tribal development, people, magic, education, health, culture, finance, taxation, city, justice, supervision, internal affairs, and justice."

In fact, Rand's official system is a mixture of three provinces and six ministries and three dukes and nine kings, but there are variations according to the situation of the Galloping Horse Kingdom.

For example, the Minister of State in Rand's mouth is actually corresponding to the affairs of the empire, that is, to connect with the affairs of the imperial capital and the royal capital, for the Galloping Horse Kingdom, this is the most important diplomatic content, but within the human empire, this is the internal affairs of the empire, so the weight of the minister of state is higher than that of other ministers.

The Foreign Affairs Division, which connects with the orc tribes and lizards, is under the control of the Minister of Defense, along with Defense, Territory, and Intelligence.

"Is it that complicated?" Gurea frowned and asked, "I don't think the dragon's system is that complicated. ”

Lan Ling nodded and said, "Yes, this set of stalls is too big, and now these 36 people are not together, even if you are all counted, they are not all together." ”

Different from the previous general's mentality, for the Galloping Horse Kingdom Rand has a whole set of official plans, he would rather vacate some positions first and maintain a huge administrative establishment, rather than follow the system of the Dragon Kingdom around Dragon's Tooth City.

"Wait a minute, I don't see the cities of White Wolf City, Iowa, Salt Mine, Iron Mine, or the army of the Knights."

"Yes, these are the central departments of the Galloping Horse Kingdom, and at the local level, there will be two large cities corresponding to the duke's fiefdom: White Wolf City and Iowa City, these two important border towns, will be directly under my jurisdiction, and the various knights will also rotate between these two cities and Night Qicheng City.

In addition to the 2 big cities, there are also 5 medium-sized cities corresponding to the earl's fiefdom: West 7, North 5, Salt Mine, Iron Mine, Hal City (Great Forest Palace), these 7 cities and Roseburg and Rania City in the Orc, Mane Wolf City and White Tree City in the south, a total of 9 earl cities, these cities will be placed in a complete set of management teams, which will be governed by the court earls in turn, and patrols and knights will also be stationed in the city.

In addition to the dozens of current post castles in other viscounties, I will also open up 2 mines in the northern part of the Iowa Mountains, and establish 3-4 settlements in the Great Forest and the Frostwolf Forest,

In addition to these cities, the central gathering area of the 8 branches of the Prancing Horse Tribe has also been basically built, which will also provide 8 cities equivalent to the viscount, as well as 2 cities negotiated with the River Clan, which will also be built according to the scale of the viscount town.

It is estimated that after all the construction is completed, all the current knights above the intermediate level who follow me can be sealed out. ”

"Hmm......" the dragon girl began to think with her cheeks raised, "do you mean that the current members of the Knights are all knighted at the intermediate level and above?" I'm afraid there aren't that many territories, right? ”

"Don't even think about it," Rand said with a smile, "The knighthood is closely related to the military system, and my current idea is to take charge of the army myself, but set up a Privy Council as a military command department." The Knights of the Galloping Horse, the Knights of the Frost Wolves, the Auxiliaries and the Elven Knights (paddling regiments of the Elven Mansions), the Knights of the various cities, the patrols, and the cavalry of the Galloping Horse Tribes were all mobilized by order of the Privy Council.

In the future, the leaders of the three regiments of galloping horses, frostwolves, and elves must be high-ranked, and the heads of the city knights are high-level knights, and these captains must have field titles, and the captains must have palace titles, and the treatment of ordinary knights is solved by the knights.

And now that the galloping horse has ushered in peace, the knights who have already achieved military merits, especially the two main knights, can choose to give up their duties as knights and concentrate on returning to the territory to operate, or they can choose to hand over their lordship to others and concentrate on training in the knights. ”

"The little cardinal has drawn up the order of knighthood according to the merits of the war, except for my father and eldest brother, the closest of the rest, among the remaining knights, the highest military merits are Tierney, Dogtooth, Neil, Petraeu Landar, Nedland Wilson and Arvinne Golden Moon, the actual fiefs of these people are treated according to the viscount, and the honorary title may be made as the marquis of the court, among the others, Elenda Maned Wolf and Honey Galloping Horse need the title of court count, and the rest are ......"

"Rand! Wait a minute, do you know what kind of person a marquis of the court is to be knighted? Gruia suddenly interrupted Rand's words, "Even if it's Tierney's grandfather, he's just an earl, and after you take Night Qicheng City, you're only a war marquis!" Just made a court count. ”

"That's right," Rand nodded, the Golden Knight of Avini has been working for almost 50 years, and he was very happy to get a court viscount in the end, and now Neil and Dogtooth have not yet reached the high level, so it is indeed a bit outrageous to give it to the Marquis.

"That should ......"

"The viscount and the earl can be divided into 3 classes, and the five of them with the greatest merit will be appointed as the 3rd class, and the rest will be divided into 1 to 3 viscounts, 1 to 3 barons, lords, and knights according to their merits."

"Well, you're right, it's more appropriate,"

Watching Rand scribble on the paper, Guréa added, "In addition to these, give Netherlands, Dogtooth, and Neil some potions, so that they can at least reach the level of the Grand Knight, or else it will not be quite conventional." ”

"Well, if you arrange all these knights with territories, the current post territory will probably be able to get enough people to operate," Lan nodded and said, "But back to the central bureaucracy just now, there are still too few administrative bureaucrats belonging to the Galloping Horse Kingdom and the Galloping Horse Khanate, even if Pete can buy all the people recently assigned by the imperial capital, only a small number of positions can be filled, and the rest can only wait for the civilian mages trained by the Galloping Horse Academy." ”

"It's not just them, the children of the Galloping Horse Family, the members of the Galloping Horse Foundation, and the previous high-ranking people in the imperial capital who have made military merits, you can recruit some side branch disciples from them, give them a position in a small city first, and then promote them if there are good seedlings."

"It's also an idea," Rand suddenly found that Gu Leia was unexpectedly very methodical about government affairs, "Is this what the Blue Dragon Family does?" ”

"It's the Lan Yuan family, when I was a child, I also lived in the Longtai Mountain Palace for a while, at that time, the then king Balla Red Dragon and his father Beto Lan Yuan often said this, they would point to us children and say, in the future, let us all enter the various departments of the Dragon Kingdom and be the head of the department."

"No wonder," Lan nodded his head, Bowya was the king who was forced to abdicate by Kempins and others, his father Beto Lan Yuan, Beto has not only been a king for decades, but also the prime minister of the Dragon Kingdom for decades, so it can be said that he is extremely familiar with administrative affairs.

With that, Rand handed the list in his hand to the dragon girl. "Then you can help me see, is there anything else to improve?"

As a child of the Blue Dragon Family, Gu Leiya has naturally been focused on training and education since she was a child, not only in the direction of becoming a dragon mage, but also in high-level lords and priests.

Thinking of this, Rand even understood the deep meaning of McLaren sending Grua to Night Qicheng, that is, if Rand really couldn't handle the cumbersome government affairs, with the help of Grua who had been immersed in Longtai Mountain since childhood, he could at least understand the feudal lord's set.

"I think it's about the same," Gulya took the list handed over by Rand, "In addition, not only do you have two sets of content, military and government affairs, but you also need to have a whole set of administrative teams within the palace, as well as the Council of Lords, the High Council, and even the Council of Legends, you have to start preparing." ”

Hearing the High Council and the Noble Council, Rand couldn't help but say, "Headache!" ”
