I Want To Be a Nobleman

Brother, why did you start such a drastic innovation as soon as the country was founded? And what is that huge golden statue in the square, it is always changing and plastic!

Rand was so surprised by Harold's temple reform plan that he was speechless. It proposed to expand the scale of the temple, expand the jurisdiction area, and recruit a large number of people. Each of them was an earth-shaking reform.

Don't worry about the colossus in the square. It's a national treasure bestowed by the Sun God. I've already ordered people to block the surrounding area. As for the reform of the temple, why do you only know now? Didn't I tell you about it?

Rand glanced at Harold innocently. He really hadn’t said anything about it. Harold had only mentioned it to the sun priest who was in charge of the operation of the temple. Not sure.

Well, to put it simply, it is to set up sub-temples of the Sun Temple in various territories, large and small, assign part of the ownership of the land to the name of the temple, let the temple take care of a lot of trivial matters, and recruit a large number of people!

Rand almost jumped up in a hurry, and complained loudly: But this is too sudden, and almost every village has established the Sun Temple, how much land will be divided and how many people will be recruited? And why do they suddenly start recruiting women? !

Rand is still a conscientious lord who does not have aristocratic thinking. He has never considered that these reforms of the temple are digging the cornerstone of aristocratic rule, and he only thinks from the perspective of the country's internal affairs officer.

In the past, the human kingdom was extremely respectful to the Sun Temple, but many commoners would never see the Sun Priestess in their entire lives, and divine arts were rarely released to commoners. Rely on economic support from several countries.

Now that the temple has its own land, it can farm and operate by itself, and choose how to manage it, and even a small branch of the Sun Temple in a village does not need to be governed by messy nobles and knights. Above the nobility, the bishop is above the king.

But Harold was originally king and archbishop, so he had nothing to lose anyway.

It's just obeying the oracle of the Sun God. You have to remember that the rise of us humans comes from the grace of the Sun God. All the power of the noble blood comes from the Sun God. Is there anything wrong with dividing the land to the temple?

Rand still respected the sun god, and shook his head frankly. It was indeed a matter of course. After enjoying the blessings of the gods, one should give dedication.

So in order to better spread the belief of the Sun God and let the people worship the Sun God from their hearts, it is only natural to expand the functions of the temple, right? Besides, they are all about taking in orphans, helping the weak, imparting knowledge, and treating injuries. A duty of social welfare nature, security and taxation will not interfere!

Rand nodded again. Although the temple is responsible for many responsibilities, it has little power. It is not so much a management organization as a service organization. It seems that there is no conflict. The official management system he designed will not be overthrown. Most of the opposition was eliminated in an instant.

However, Harold sighed in his heart. Once the temple really took root, the temple, which is not subject to the political jurisdiction of the country and the rights of the nobility, may sooner or later become a real institution to rule the country.

The more long-term, complex, and cumbersome an organization that communicates with civilians, the more popular it is. Nine out of ten schools, hospitals, and welfare homes in every country in the modern world are either strictly regulated by the government, or simply established by conquest.

It is absolutely impossible to be completely independent of the state power system like the Sun Temple proposed by Harold.

What's more terrible is that the Sun Temple not only has sun priests who release divine spells, but also has the right to recruit and train sun knights. Although the branch temples in small villages have this right and there are no conditions, some branch temples in small towns still have The main hall of the king's capital will definitely use this authority.

With an organization of armed forces, and the Temple of the Sun twisted together under the bond of faith, it is definitely not something that those disorganized nobles can provoke, even the biggest noble—the king!

Harold was immersed in his own ideas and couldn't extricate himself, while Rand was constantly thinking about the feasibility and implementation steps. After thinking twice, he began to ask:

Brother, you have a good idea. Have you thought about where to start promoting it? Have you found a suitable manager? Now that the land has been divided and you have a lot of real power, you must find a reliable person to manage it. !

And what are the recruitment criteria for women? The number of women in our country is overwhelmingly high, and the threshold can be raised appropriately!

Then you have to decide the rules and regulations of the temple itself. Aren't you still the Archbishop of the Sun Temple? This is up to you, I don't want to interfere!

Moreover.

Harold was dumbfounded by Rand's continuous questions. Although Harold had special ideas and ideas as a time traveler, and was able to talk about things on paper, Harold was not a political talent after all. Those who rise by force are very amateurs in management.

Where does the promotion start? Oh, yes, there is a pilot, where is it? Candidates. There is only one sun priest in the whole country except me. Is it too late to start training now?

Facing the faltering Harold, Rand's face darkened in an instant, and Maddow really just laughed. It turned out that there was no fart plan. What Harold said was just a goal, not a plan!

Rules and regulations. Do I have to decide? How should I decide?

Rand's eyes widened. You are the archbishop, so you don't know who has the right to decide? Don't ask me back with a blank face!

The threshold for recruiting women is just to be pretty and have bigger breasts, right? You can choose some to serve me. I'm joking, I'm really joking! Don't take it seriously!

Harold is also in a mess, and he exposed his dirty thoughts for some reason. Rand looked at him completely without respect. The image of the old pervert has finally spread successfully, and now no one around him has any impression of him. It's white!

There was a sigh, and the sun priest pushed open the door, interrupting Harold's defense and freeing Rand from his collapse.

I knew you didn't prepare anything, don't worry, I have spread the grace of God in a small town and two villages next to the capital, and brought out more than a dozen young believers, both men and women, although it is only simple Read and write, but character is guaranteed!

Although the Sun Priest marveled at and admired Harold's great decision-making, he also knew that Harold was a guy who was completely ignorant of practice and had a lazy personality. As early as Harold proposed this idea, the Sun Priest began to prepare.
