Arkham in the pirate world

"Seventeen islands and twenty-six villages and towns are located within a hundred miles of the Zhuminada Islands. To the kingdoms in the East China Sea, these overseas islands are like useless, or in other words, the benefits are far less than the investment. , the unpredictable ocean, the sea kings swimming in the sea, and the pirates plundering merchant ships are all dangerous variables and must be entrusted to the navy. However, the navy stationing requires the local kingdom to provide military expenditures, and other expenses, which are enough for everyone. The king is distressed.”

"So, it is better to just give up and hand it over to the Navy for management. As for taxes, it is the Navy that has the final say, thus offsetting a military expenditure."

Crowe pointed at the nautical chart he had obtained from the navy and started talking.

A person's character is often related to his experience. He is naive and passionate when he is young, he is smooth and sophisticated when he is middle-aged, and he is nostalgic and stubborn when he is old. They are not static.

From being a swindler in the kingdom that everyone yelled at, to becoming the general manager of the Arkham Chamber of Commerce, Crowe felt an experience he had never had before. People would use positive words to evaluate him, respect him, love him, and feel a sense of accomplishment from the bottom of their hearts. It gave Crowe great satisfaction. He liked this feeling. Simply put, it was a sense of social recognition.

For this sense of recognition, Crowe naturally worked hard, not to mention that he made a mistake not long ago and almost killed Kuina.

"After on-the-spot investigation, I found that the environment of each island is different. Some are suitable for growing fruit trees, some are suitable for growing coffee, and some have excellent ports...Along and his group blindly squeezed the local residents, and people were panicked, so that everyone The island’s economy has been destroyed, and it’s not surprising that it will become a deserted island over time.”

Crowe pushed up his glasses slightly and said: "Pirates are pirates after all. They only know how to plunder, but not how to manage!"

"But, we are different."

Liszt leaned on the chair, held the back of his head with his hands, and put his feet on the table. He agreed: "Indeed, we are different. I prefer to make the cake bigger, but before that, we must ensure the safety of the cake. Colonel Mouse People can cooperate, but we must be vigilant, and when appropriate, let them see our fists. In addition, within half a year, I hope that more than one-third of the people in the 16th Navy Division will be our own people, so as to avoid the transfer of Colonel Rat. After leaving, the new commander did not recognize the agreement signed by his predecessor.”

Crowe nodded and said: "It might be a little difficult for other branches, but Branch 16, according to the intelligence department's investigation, there is serious internal corruption from the commander to the sailors, and Bailey is in place, everything is easy to talk about."

"It not only needs to be corrupted, but also assimilated. It is best to send some people in. There is a kind of bird called dove that never builds its own nest. They will put their eggs into the nest and let the bird hatch and feed them for them."

Speaking of this, Liszt suddenly asked: "Are there any islands that are not suitable for development?"

Crowe nodded. There are too many islands in the sea that Lister mentioned. He pointed to the chart and said: "This, Bird Island, is named because it looks like a seabird. There are many rocks and whirlpools near the sea area, making it difficult for merchant ships to sail. It is close to the windless zone, and there are The presence of Neptune species, even super-large Neptune species, is very dangerous. The island has tall vegetation, many ferocious beasts and birds, and a village of more than people lives by hunting. Overall, the development value is too small."

"Oh, just in time, I plan to build a school where all school-age children from all islands can enroll." Liszt said.

"School?"

“It’s a place to learn.”

In Donghai, there is currently no such institution as a school.

This world has distinct classes. At the top of the pyramid are the Celestial Dragons, who dominate the world government. Next are the world governments who join the royal family and rule various kingdoms. Then there are the nobles of the kingdom, involved in commerce, agriculture and other walks of life, followed by craftsmen and all walks of life. Civilians who work in various industries are ultimately slaves. There are a large number of slaves in the Kingdom of Techilawolf on the East Sea Bridge. Most of the people in the country are people and criminals from countries that refuse to join the World Government.

Children of nobles were born with privileges, and their education was taught by knowledgeable persons invited by their parents.

Children of common people mostly rely on their parents for education and are limited by their parents' knowledge level. Most of what they master is their parents' craft skills, which forms a craft model passed down from father to son. Of course, there are also civilians who are willing to break out of this model and worship others. As a teacher, in places like kendo halls and libraries, you start as an apprentice and the master imparts knowledge.

As for the children of slaves, they are born slaves and control the needs of their masters.
