Regarding this invitation from the governor of Newhofen, Chen Daolin really didn't have much interest.

He had something to do today.

Last night, because everyone reunited after a long absence, a happy drink, drunk and dark, some things were ignored.

When he woke up today, he had already thought of a few things to do.

The first thing I want to do is to meet Hook and Chuck the werewolf.

Both had previously been seriously injured. When I saw Hook at sea, the injuries on the body of this bold captain were obviously not healed, and because of the forced body to go to sea to find himself, the external injuries had not healed, and there was a faint tendency to develop internal injuries, if they were not cured as soon as possible, I am afraid that they would leave future troubles.

And the werewolf Chuck, Chen Daolin had already seen it once yesterday. Because of its special status, the werewolf is not free in the governor's palace, and it is only because of Lordelle's face that it is allowed to stay in a separate place in the backyard to be "guarded".

This made Chen Daolin very dissatisfied, but thinking that this was the important place of the Governor's Mansion, he naturally had to be more vigilant, and it was not good to blame others.

Chuck's injuries healed better than Captain Hook's, but there was still some room for healing.

Chen Daolin originally thought that he would have time today, and he would go to this Hillock City to find some medicine.

Although it is located outside of the East China Sea, it is also the capital of a province, and the harbor city is quite prosperous. The Magic Guild has a chapter here. Chen Daolin plans to try his luck at the branch of the Magic Guild to see if he can buy some magic potions, so that he can match some magic potions, in addition to treating two injuries, but also for future use.

Unexpectedly, the governor actually wanted to see him.

In any case, he also lived in the governor's palace, and Laudel sent a large number of ships to the sea to search for him, and the governor of the province of Newhofen was also very convenient, so it was reasonable for him to refuse the invitation of others.

I thought about it. Chen Daolin nodded: It's okay to thank you in person.

......

Follow the three young men with the guards to the antechamber of the Doge's Palace.

The Doge's Palace occupies a huge area...... After all, Hillock City was built from scratch, and in the early days, it was vast and sparsely populated, and nothing else. But there is no big land. Therefore, the decoration of this governor's palace is not luxurious, but it occupies an extremely large area.

All the way to the front of the Governor's Palace, there was an endless stream of officials at all levels, and when they saw the three of them, they all cast curious eyes. There are well-informed people who know that these three seem to be the private guests of the Governor from the backyard of the Governor's Palace, and they can't help but guess the identities of these three people

In fact, Chen Daolin's identity is relatively easy to guess, and the officials with a little bit of insight respected Chen Daolin's standard magician robe and stopped from a distance. Nod and salute him.

Chen Daolin walked all the way. Many people saluted him, but the two genuine nobles who seemed to be following him, Carman and Luo Xiaopu, seemed to have become his followers.

Roman Fritz, now forty-nine years old, in fact. Next month will be his fiftieth birthday. This governor of the province of Neuhofen can be called an outlier in the officialdom of the Roland Empire.

And his experience can be called a legend.

Fifteen years ago, Roman Fritz was just under the age of thirty-five. He was just a young official who had just risen to prominence in the empire's vast bureaucracy.

He came from a modest aristocratic family on the eastern seaboard of the empire, and his father was a hereditary baron.

Although the eldest son, Roman Fritz refused to stay in his hometown to inherit the family title early on, becoming a well-fed and inactive manor owner.

He once said: "I cannot tolerate being in that little place for the rest of my life, as a parasite fed by the peasants, who knows only to live in his own manor every day, to molest the maids, to drink good wine, to ride horses and hold a few banquets in my spare time...... I will never be able to endure such a mediocre life!

At the age of sixteen, despite the strong opposition of his father and family, he left his hometown alone, for which the old baron even angrily declared that he would sever the relationship between father and son and deprive him of his inheritance.

However, Roman Fritz still insisted on his choice, went to the imperial capital, and first signed up to study at the Imperial Academy.

At that time, there was a small episode: the empire was surrounded by strong enemies in the north, especially the orc kingdom, and the emperor's academy had always been the world of the army. Even the emerging military research in the air is very popular.

However, this Roman Fritz chose the unpopular Navy branch for further study.

In fact, the Imperial Navy has been left out in the cold for a long time, because although the South Seas are vast and rich, there are no strong enemies in the South Seas, and the distant United Kingdom of the South Seas is nothing more than a rural alliance made by a group of indigenous tribes to resist the oppression of the Empire. In fact, any ordinary detachment of the empire sailed to the South Seas, and it was completely capable of sweeping away the enemy. The empire had not been at war in Nanyang for many years, and the United Kingdom of Nanyang completely submitted to the Rolanders, paying a large amount of wealth every year in order to seek peace and stability.

The Empire's navy has long been in a situation where it has no rivals - no monarch can feed a useless army for a long time, especially a costly navy!

Therefore, the weight of the navy, among the emperor's ** team, has been declining. The size of the army has also been reduced over the years.

But this Roman Fritz chose to join the Navy Branch for further study.

It is said that he has achieved excellent results in the study of the Navy Branch, and has also won the attention and expectations of the instructors and deans of the Academy for a time, and is even considered a future naval star.

But unfortunately, three years later, Roman Fritz broke a leg due to an accident and was directly disabled!

After determining that his body could not be healed, Roman Fritz had to be forced to quit the naval officer rank.

At that time, Roman Fritz was very disappointed. He openly pointed out: As a naval commander, I only need to know how to steer the sea and command the battle, and I don't need to charge on horseback, can't a man with only one leg be a good captain!!

It is a pity that his remarks, which are full of resentment, have not been recognized.

The young Roman Fritz was forced to interrupt his dream of becoming a famous admiral.

Later, he studied with two well-known scholars at the time, and officially entered the official career at the age of twenty-two. At the beginning, those who had served in the imperial capital even worked as a clerk in the logistics department of the imperial ministry. He worked for three years, slowly rising from a low-level civilian position, and at the age of twenty-five, during an imperial spring military exercise. He finally got his chance!

At that time, Roman Fritz was sent to the south of the empire to coordinate the logistics and supply work required for the spring drills of the garrison armies of the two southern provinces! And probably God could not bear to see such an outstanding talent buried, and in the spring exercise of that year, a big man of the empire actually went to the south by mistake to inspect the army's exercises, and the result was full of praise for the logistics work, this Roman Fritz was indeed quite talented, and the logistics supply was done in an orderly manner, and the work efficiency far exceeded that of other regions.

Because of this incident, he finally came to prominence and was favored by the big man. Soon after, a letter of recommendation was sent to the desk of the then Minister of War of the Empire.

It is worth mentioning. At that time, the emperor ** minister. Exactly the ...... of the previous generation Duke Tulip!

Roman Fritz immediately went from a middle-level official in the logistics department of the military department to the sight of a top boss like Duke Tulip, and was soon promoted to the adjutant of the Minister of War!

Who doesn't know the status of Duke Tulip in the empire and can become his adjutant. It is equivalent to standing by the side of great men and learning day and night, and the future is immeasurable!

And sure enough, Duke Tulip stepped down after becoming Minister of War for a term. ran to serve as the Imperial Chancellor. And Roman Fritz was also trusted by the Duke of Tulip. He left the military headquarters and went to the Ministry of Finance, where he continued to serve as the Duke's aide-de-camp and chief of staff.

And here, again, there is a small episode in his experience.

This young talent, who can be said to have been picked up by Duke Tulip, actually had a disagreement with Duke Tulip.

It is said that in the course of his work, there were disagreements about a certain financial plan, but the young and vigorous Roman Fritz insisted on his own and did not abandon his position in the slightest because the other party was the great Duke of Tulip of the Empire.

At that time, countless people denounced the young Roman Fritz for not knowing what to do.

But Duke Tulip showed a broad mind, and instead of blaming the young man, he appreciated him more and more. Later, in a change of officials, Duke Tulip left the Ministry of Finance and officially assumed the post of Imperial Prime Minister, and just before he became Prime Minister, he personally signed a letter of appointment appointing Roman Fritz as the administrator of a region in the southern part of the Empire.

From an adjutant staff member to a feudal official, this is the most difficult threshold that every high-ranking official of the empire must go through!

However, Roman Fritz did it lightly because he was appreciated by Duke Tulip!

He left the imperial capital, leaving Duke Tulip - he was thirty-one years old at that time, and had been with Duke Tulip for six years.

Roman Fritz served in the south and did a very good job, and the area he ruled grew rapidly in terms of people's livelihood and wealth, and he was considered to be an excellent official.

And when he was thirty-five years old, he finally ushered in the biggest opportunity in his career!

At that time, the province of Newhoven in the East China Sea of the empire, after years of development in the East China Sea, after a period of peak development, gradually exposed many problems.

The biggest problem is the confusion in management. Because it is far away from the mainland, sea transportation is inconvenient, communication is even more difficult, and it is often difficult to convey government decrees in a timely manner. The entire province of Newhoven is made up of more than 100 islands.

After the initial development, as the East China Sea became more and more prosperous, various faults and shortcomings were also exposed. For example, the proliferation of private goods, the loss of state taxes, and the disorderly development of commerce have shrunk day by day...... There is also the problem of strict governance.

It is worth mentioning that at that time, the scandal of the then governor of Neuhoven had just broke. The last Governor-General, who had been exposed to the crime of embezzling a huge amount of wealth, shielding the smuggling industry and accepting huge bribes from several chambers of commerce, made the newly crowned Emperor Xià extremely angry, and angrily sent the hapless Governor to the gallows.

And after the position of governor of Newhofen became vacant, this position was targeted by countless people.

Nyohoven, a province in the East China Sea, is undergoing great development, with prosperous trade routes, maritime trade, pearl industry, and so on.

Many wealthy families have thrown out their agents in an attempt to compete for this position.

However, the newly crowned emperor at that time was not a foolish person.

His Majesty the Emperor was very aware that in order to develop the province of Neuhoven in the East China Sea, it was necessary to appoint a truly capable and outstanding official, rather than giving this position to the agent of a certain wealthy family, so that the province of Neuhoven would become the fat of some wealthy families.

To the surprise of countless people, His Majesty the Emperor rejected more than a dozen recommended candidates. After personally consulting a lot of information among the officials of the Empire, I took a fancy to Roman Fritz!

His six-year experience as an adjutant and staff member at Duke Tulip's side became his greatest advantage in the election. Moreover, his later achievements as a magistrate were also excellent.

His Majesty the Emperor even went to visit the Duke of Tulip in person, and after listening to the advice of the Duke himself...... The decision was made.

At only 35 years old and just a budding officialdom star, Roman Fritz has completed the heaviest leap in his life!

At the age of thirty-five, he became the governor of the imperial province and became the highest-ranking feudal official among the local officials of the empire!

This kind of experience is really rare in the officialdom of the empire! What should be explained is that this Governor Roman Fritz does not have a very hard background, he is only a middle-class nobleman, and he has no connections and background in the upper echelons of the empire.

Although he used to be Duke Tulip's aide-de-camp, he only stayed in a working relationship - everyone knows that he has never been close to the Tulip family in personal relationships!

However, it was such a young man with no background, only thirty-five years old, who was personally chosen by His Majesty the Emperor.

Immediately, Roman Fritz was recalled from the south to the imperial capital, where he met with His Majesty and had the opportunity to report to the imperial supreme in person.

In that conversation, after receiving hints from the Emperor, he gave his views on the development of the province of Neuhoven in the East China Sea.
