Chapter 696 Selection of a New District Chief
Night, bedroom, study room.

Alfred was sitting at the desk, writing a self-criticism.

If the soul can have a specific form of expression, then at this time Alfred's desk, oh no, the entire bedroom, will be filled with reflection coupons.

Alfred believed that the dinner tonight was a failure.

The reason it fails is...it's not perfect.

During the dinner, the young master frowned several times, and the direct cause of all this was his own mistakes in work.

I pursued and enjoyed the pleasure of preaching too much, which blurred the boundaries. It can also be said that I did the work "too well", but made individual events fail to work because they could not be matched when placed in the overall plan. qualified.

The more you write the review, the thicker the paper.

But suddenly, Alfred stopped and put down his pen.

"Snapped."

Patting his forehead lightly, Alfred realized that he had made another mistake, that is, the young master didn't even bother to read the documents at work as long as they were handled by him, so how could the young master look at his own documents? What about the heavy self-criticism?
Obviously, I can go directly to the young master to admit my mistakes face-to-face, and use a more concise and efficient way to recognize and solve problems, but now that I have written so many things, this is a fault of formalism, which violates what the young master wants Principles of teamwork.

As for the principle of getting along...

"Snapped."

Alfred patted his forehead lightly again, and he realized that he had made another mistake, that he hadn't formulated the principles of getting along with the believers in advance.

"Hey, if it wasn't for the young master's trust and concern for me, with my ability, I wouldn't be worthy of the position of the young master's personal servant."

Alfred put aside the review paper and began to draft the "Principles of Behavior for Getting Along with Believers", which he plans to announce at the next collective learning exchange meeting.

As for the specific content, Alfred will not ask the young master, but will make a summary based on how he and the young master have been getting along for so long.

At this time, images of the young master discussing issues with himself began to appear in his mind, especially that time on Fire Island, when the young master leaned against the bed very decadently because of Lord Texisen's "beating", and talked with himself Have a question-and-answer exchange.

"Article [-]: All believers are equal."

This is a politically correct statement within the Cult of Kosmos.

Alfred hesitated for a moment, his pen tip trembling slightly, but in the end he crossed out this sentence and wrote it again:

Believers, believers and God, are equal in thought and personality status. (The concept of God will be elaborated and guided in detail later).

Alfred felt that the path the young master is taking and the people who will gather now and in the future should be dominated by the Cult of Kosmos, so from the very beginning, there will inevitably be a shadow of the Cult of Kosmos in the various rules and regulations At the same time, you must also add your own unique things.

Otherwise, if there is no difference between the New Order God Religion and the Old Order God Religion after Young Master, then what is the meaning and driving force of the new order replacing the old one?

On my own side, according to the young master's consistent requirements, the concept of "God" must be brought down from the order from the very beginning.

Although this is somewhat logically inconsistent.

Because a large part of the confidence that my group can build up and develop in the future comes from the fact that we have "God";
Without "God", what is the difference between my group of people and other thought factions within the Cult of Kosmos? Wouldn't it be another "Davins"?
Because of "God", we can develop and have a future, but our future cannot depend on "God".

It is too impractical to rely on the power of the "God" while trying to suppress the status of the "God", even if it is the young master "God" who proposed this concept.

Alfred felt that this was like asking an army to be able to fight the enemy bravely on the battlefield in wartime, and asking it to put down its guns and all hostility to do volunteer services willingly in peacetime.

How could there be such a strange army in this world?

"call……"

It is also impossible for anyone to form such an army.

Alfred pursed his lips. This question has actually troubled him for a long time. Every time the young master reiterated the concept of "denying God", he would fall into this kind of thinking.

However, Alfred is not decadent. He believes that the young master must have a plan, a plan, and a "blueprint" in his heart.

"Article [-]: The method of internal communication among believers..."

"Article Three:..."

After Alfred finished writing the clauses, he looked up and found that it was already dawn. Looking at the time again, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

He got up, took a shower, changed into a dark blue tight suit, and checked his appearance in the mirror while washing his hands carefully.

Although he didn't sleep all night, Alfred was still full of energy. He always had a very high subjective initiative in the work that the young master arranged for him.

Especially after receiving Compasini's inheritance, he didn't have much training in combat, and he didn't deliberately develop there. He mainly used it in the handling of various affairs.

For example, when analyzing a matter and dealing with a problem, he can simultaneously simulate dozens or even hundreds of possible pictures in his mind to make calculations, which is also the development route that Alfred himself changed;
Because he felt that there was no shortage of "thugs" around the young master, and the 12 knights would be supplementary in this area in the future, and the young master himself was a very comprehensive powerhouse.

Therefore, as long as you do your own affairs well, the young master will always lack a competent butler with character, trust and ability.

And this is also the reason why Alfred was able to develop from a strange demon in Luojia City to being able to suppress the former high priest students in terms of transaction processing ability.

He has been studying hard and never stops.

Alfred came to the young master's bedroom and knocked on the door. The doorbell rang, and Alfred pushed the door in. He saw the young master sitting in front of the French windows with a teacup and looking at the green shade in front of him.

"Alfred, it's really pleasant to wake up and see a large yard where you can run horses and play golf outside the window."

"But that's why you chose to move out of the manor in the first place, because you wanted to get rid of this comfort."

For Karen at that time, becoming a "nobility", enjoying the life of "nobility", guarding a beautiful fiancée, there is no shortage of docile maids who serve you and want to be developed into lovers...

This kind of life is the envy of everyone.

But Karen discovered that he actually began to enjoy this feeling. After trying to accept even the aristocratic cuisine of Wayne, he decisively decided to leave here and rent a house in York City to live and struggle on his own.

Alfred felt that part of the reason why the young master couldn't accept Wayne sauce so far was because Wayne sauce had another meaning in the young master, such as corruption and depravity.

"Master, I need to review what happened last night to you."

Karen raised his hand and interrupted Alfred's review: "Okay, it's fine if you realize that something is wrong, I believe you will reflect and improve, and you will definitely be able to do better next time. Let's skip this step."

"Okay, sir."

Alfred was not surprised by the young master's reaction at all, it was the young master's unconditional trust in him.

As for Karen, many times he has found that he has nothing to continue to teach Alfred. Many of his current consciousness and ideas are more advanced and more perfect than his own.

Especially when Karen took over the articles drafted by Alfred overnight and read them down.

"Young master, please point out what needs to be deleted here."

"I think it's very good, and I don't see anything that needs to be modified for the time being."

"Yes, young master, you are right. Some problems cannot be seen now, and we can only wait for them to be exposed or noticed during development."

"Well... yes, that's what I mean."

"Yes, I understand." Alfred put away the document and asked, "Your master, do you have any plans for today?"

"Yes." Karen took out two books from under the chair, one was the novel "The Cabin of Bias" and the other was a book on spells, "My plan for today is to try to finish this novel, Then I can spare a little time to read this book of spells."

Along with the promotion of Karen's position, his corresponding salary has also increased rapidly, and it is easier to apply for higher-level spell books.

However, spell learning scrolls are cumbersome, and even internal personnel need to pay a lot of money to borrow them, so Karen prefers this simple and clear "collection version" of ordinary materials. The disadvantage is that the learning efficiency is not good. Similarly, spell learning scrolls can be more immersive and accelerate understanding and mastery, but efficiency is not a problem here for Karen.

He often gets annoyed with understanding and learning things too quickly and mis-matching them when using them.

That is to say, it is too easy to research the certificates, so that you have taken too many certificates, and you will inevitably be in a hurry to find them when you go to the service window.

"Okay, master, I'm going to give Vic and Leon an ideological education today... no, an ideological exchange class."

"Ah."

After Alfred left, Karen put down her teacup and started flipping through the book.

"The Cabin of Bias" is a fantasy adventure book. The author has added many imaginative elements to it, but Karen's current life is already subverting imagination in the eyes of ordinary people, so when reading this book, you can actually Find out what it's like to read "reality reading."

This looks like a morning.

When the maid came to ask about lunch, Karen only asked for three snacks, and then continued to read.

Finally, at 03:30 in the afternoon, Karen finished the book.

Close the book and stretch out comfortably. This kind of experience of spending a long time reading after leisure is not inferior to climbers challenging a peak for those who like to read.

When I thought of Rathma's urgent return, I was still "wasting time" here, and the joy of sneaking in from a busy schedule was doubled all of a sudden.

After all, there is no way to benefit after simply being anxious to a certain extent, and the value of combining work and rest is also reflected.

Karen picked up the spell book and started flipping through it, um, just flipping through it.

He has actually learned a lot of spells during this time. After all, people have to eat every day. Karen doesn't like to read newspapers while eating, so he naturally studies while eating.

However, it is enough to choose the most cost-effective one for each type of spell. According to your own conditions, you don't have to worry about wasting spiritual power, so the options for realizing it are very narrow.

After reading a book, there are different spells that are worth using by yourself. On weekdays, Pu'er and Kevin are responsible for the screening work in this area, because other people are not qualified to substitute Karen's "perspective".

With her own excellent talent, coupled with the belief system of the Inmeles family, coupled with two top teachers who are hard to find in the world, it is difficult for Karen's "strength" to improve quickly.

As if they had a tacit understanding, just as Karen put down the spell book and was about to take a sip of ice water, the door was pushed open.

It was Eunice who walked in.

Karen leaned back with his neck resting on the armchair. Eunice walked behind and naturally helped Karen pinch his shoulders with both hands.

"Um……"

"Thank you," Eunice said.

"It's hard work to read a novel all day." Karen reached out and grabbed Eunice's hand.

"Didn't you eat lunch?"

"I'm not hungry, no matter how delicious dinner is."

"I chatted with Ophelia about the costume design for a day today. I think many costume elements of Darkmoon Island are very suitable to be added to my design. Well, it fits my design concept very well."

"Because of the geographical environment of Dark Moon Island, the culture on it is actually more retro. No, she has a bit of an ancient feeling, so it fits the conservative style of your clothing design."

"I found out that you really know everything." Eunice looked down at Karen with some surprise.

"I seem to know a little about everything, but I don't know much."

"you are too humble."

"It's fact, not modesty."

"I thought you'd think my designs weren't stylish enough."

"No, things like fashion and avant-garde often follow the trend. Trends are like the ebb and flow of the sea. In fact, many things and elements in essence will never change.

Not only fashion design, but also decoration and architectural design. The more you follow the trend, the easier it is to look old and outdated in a few years. Instead, it is retro and conservative. It has always been retro and conservative. , the fineness changes little.

Of course……"

"Of course what?"

"Some things still need to be updated to keep up with the trend."

Eunice understood what Karen was saying and replied, "I know."

"It doesn't count if you say you know it verbally, you have to take a test."

Eunice whispered into Karen's ear, "How about waiting tonight?"

"Okay, but..."

"But what?"

"I'll come up with a question."

"it is good."

"It's not a single-choice question, but a multiple-choice question."

"it is good."

"One question is not enough, a few more question types."

Eunice put her side face close to Karen's, and said:

"You are the examiner, you have the final say."

……

What happened in the evening, of course, had to be left to the evening.

When night falls, it can not only bury the ugliness of the day, but also cover up the shamelessness that happened inappropriately during the day.

At dusk, Karen asked the people in the manor to lead the white horse out, and he drove Eunice to start riding in the manor.

Karen likes this feeling very much. Riding a horse, walking in the manor that is at least nominally his own, with his fiancée lying in his arms, this is what most men pursue in their lives.

It's just that when passing by the tomb of the ancestor of the Alan family, Karen couldn't help but look at the tombstone of the ancestor Alan a few more times.

That first ancestor is now living in his own soul space, of course, he is not "he", and does not have consciousness.

"It seems that all good things are fragile."

"Yes, because it is rare." Eunice said, "That's why people cherish it."

"Ah."

If I hadn't "woke up" Earl Recar that night, Allen Manor, such a beautiful place, would have become the "pig farm" of the Wayne royal family.

……

"I'm going to report to the minister!"

Leon, who was excited about his work, got into the car with the news he had just received, and was about to drive to find Karen, who was out riding a horse. The news was that Suss had confirmed his promotion to the Dingle District, and the candidate for the new district mayor It has been decided...it is Judge Gaspar!

"Hello." Vic called to Leon.

"What's the matter? You go?" Leon suddenly felt that he was a little too obvious, and immediately said, "You can go, I'll give you the car keys."

Vic shook his head and said, "Go on a horse."

"I'm not very good at horsemanship, so I'll drive faster."

"It's expected information, don't worry, but driving will spoil the atmosphere."

"Yes, you have a good point! Thank you, Vic!"

Leon immediately got out of the carriage and mounted a horse.

Vic and Alfred continued to walk near the castle, and Vic asked, "I found that the minister respects this marriage."

After Vic came here, he could see clearly the reality of this manor. Regardless of whether it was glorious in the past, now... it is not really a help.

Alfred actually understood the meaning of Vic's words, but he didn't explain it through the concept of marriage and love, and he didn't intend to introduce the relationship between the cat named Allen at home and the young master and this manor. binding;
Instead, he deliberately asked: "You don't think this marriage has much practical value, do you?"

"Yes." Vic didn't hide the slightest bit, "Actually, it's not a low or high starting point. I found that everyone around the minister is very talented and worked very hard. I also know that Miss Eunice once fell asleep to wake up the blood. It's been half a year, but now, I don't see Miss Eunice's sense of crisis."

"Should she have a sense of crisis?"

"Shouldn't it be? Even if she doesn't know what the minister's real identity is, she should be able to do so given the minister's current status. But she seems to be just... living seriously."

"if not?"

"what?"

"Why don't I ask you?"

"Sir, I don't know what else means..."

"Otherwise, what is the young master's hard work and struggle for?"

"This……"

"Actually, Miss Eunice is very smart. She knows what the young master wants."

"I'm still a little confused."

"Master, working so hard and so dangerously, trying to climb up, people are always tense and tired, and they will be numb, bored and even confused.

So, at this time, the young master needs to go home and see a person living happily and carefree;

O married man,
Just look at her smile,

Then the hard work and hard work outside can have tangible meaning. "
