The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

The duke is dead, and the turmoil is over.

The tranquility expected by the manor owners and commoners finally came again, but after that, there were still more things to deal with.

The Kingdom of Gadayat no longer exists, and Kaes is no longer a royal city.

——It was replaced by the huge territory named Desinia, Wissas as the administrative center.

The Designia territory does not belong to any country and exists independently, and the Designia lord is no longer a vassal of anyone.

Xia Zuoyi Dexinia has absolute ruling power in the territory.

Fifteen cities, including Wissus, will only usher in the only lord, and the regulations on redistribution of land and enfeoffment of lords and vassals will be cancelled.

Except for Wissas, the administrative level system was introduced in the remaining [-] cities, and the positions and positions were established by level.

The highest governor in the remaining cities is the mayor, who is an official who serves the lord and manages it on his behalf.

The mayor is not a vassal of the lord, but a subordinate. They no longer have privileges in the cities they manage, and have no right to privately set up taxes, courts, checkpoints, etc., and have no right to privately recruit troops.

The only ones with the right to conscription are the lords.

at the same time.

Soldiers will be sent to garrison each of the fifteen cities in Designia's territory, and a clear hierarchy will be established among the soldiers.

But the jurisdiction of all soldiers belongs to the Designian cavalry.

Cities that lost their lords due to the Duke's turmoil will re-elect suitable candidates in Wissas.

They will serve as mayors in various cities and handle various affairs for the lords.

In addition, officials will be set up in batches under the mayor, and each official, including the mayor, needs to pass an assessment before he can take office.

The new regulations promulgated by the Lord Desenia were quickly spread among the fifteen cities through the release of official documents and publicity by the Thorns Chamber of Commerce.

Many people were shocked by this.

Xia Zuoyi Designia is still a lord, not a king.

He abolished the feudal system of lords and vassals in the territory... Such an approach is unique in the Western Continent.

This also caused some old-school nobles to disapprove of this, and even began to oppose Xia Zuoyi's decision.

They asked Xia Zuoyi to redistribute the vassals of the lord, appoint nobles to serve as lords in the remaining cities, and restore the lord to have the supreme ruling power in his own territory...

Everything remains the same as it was before and cannot be changed.

Most of these old-fashioned nobles are people who live in the royal city and have no territories.

They were previously coerced or controlled by Bass Ridges or intimidation... there was no way to put him on the throne.

Now they are united against Xia Zuoyi because Kaes is no longer a royal city and the lord enfeoffment system has been abolished, which has touched their fundamental interests.

It is even said that there are other people in the offshoot of the royal family, and Xia Zuoyi Designia will not inherit the throne, but he can choose someone else.

These words are ridiculous.

No other branch of the royal family is capable of standing up to Bas Ridges.

After Xia Zuoyi successfully resolved the turmoil, he made such unreasonable demands indiscriminately.

Xia Zuoyi's response to this was to send soldiers one by one to ask them to go to Wissus for "detailed talks."

If there are no more objections to the policies he proposed, these people will naturally return to Kaes and still maintain their original lives.

But if there are still objections, stay in Wissas, and go back when the negotiation is settled.

When I have time to jump up and down looking for trouble, most of the time I am in a panic.

That being the case, Xia Zuoyi doesn't mind raising a few more idlers in the city.

Among them, in this matter, he had an accidental discovery.

That is the son of the Marquis of Marco Case, that is, Nat Case, he is special and very talented in language, and he is very good at talking.

In the verbal battle with the nobles, they were all speechless and at a loss for reason.

Xia Zuoyi expressed her doubts. Since she could say that, why was he fooling Fernandi away with a gold coin in Kaesli back then?

he asked.

Nat blushed and hesitated: "Just, just... It's the first time someone called me brother so sweetly."

She looks cute too.

He scratched his ears in embarrassment: "Besides, it's just a slave, I don't care if there is one more or one less... But, but who would have thought that this person would become the leader of the Lord Lord's Black Cavalry in the future?" sir..."

Nat whispered, "I wouldn't have sold it if I had known."

Xia Zuoyi: "If you don't sell Fernandi to me, how can he become the chief executive today?"

Nat muttered, "I'm on the right track then."

After coming here, he could often meet Fernandi in Wissus, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart and felt uncomfortable all over his body.

After all, he had beaten Fernandi so badly in Caesne...

Xia Zuoyi: "I plan to make the Marquis of Kais the mayor of Kaes."

"After all, he once served as an important minister in the royal city, and he must be handy to handle various affairs in the city again... You will be able to return to Kaes with your father in a short time."

Nat pursed his lips and nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.

Not long after that, he took the initiative to find Fernandi, and apologized stammeringly for what happened at the beginning: "...I hope you, Mr. Chief, don't hold grudges against me because of this incident."

Fernandi: "I didn't bear any grudges against you. It's not your fault. I thought I had revenge at that time. I didn't have any nostalgia for it. You deliberately provoked me because I wanted to die."

Nat breathed a sigh of relief.

He patted Fernandi on the shoulder and said, "Actually, I also don't think I'm wrong."

"After all, I am a nobleman, and you were a slave at the time. You offended me. Isn't it normal for me to beat you... Cough cough, of course, I have now deeply realized my mistakes. I was young and ignorant, too Arrogant..."

In the end, Nat dryly confessed under Fernandi's silent gaze, and withdrew his paw that was patted on his shoulder tremblingly, and smiled awkwardly.

Fernandi said, "Why did you ask me to admit your mistake?"

Nat hesitated and said: "I want to work with the lord, and I don't want to go back to Kaes with my father..."

"You are also serving beside the lord. If we two had a rift because of what happened back then, it would definitely make it difficult for the little lord. I don't want to settle it first."

Fernandi: "Isn't it a little early for you to think about this?"

Nat reacted quickly: "...you are laughing at me!"

He pursed his lips again and said, "You're right, I didn't learn anything before, and now I really feel like I don't know anything... I don't even know what to do for the little lord..."

Nat scratched his head, looking distressed and depressed.

Fernandi: "The lord has decided to arrange an assessment in the territory to select the mayor and officials of various positions. If you are interested in these matters, you can study them carefully and prepare well before the assessment."

Nat looked hesitant and lacking in confidence when he heard the words.

Fernandi: "If you fail the exam, go back to Kaes and help the Marquis of Kais."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Nat gritted his teeth in the back and shouted, "I'm sure I can do it!"

For the sake of the little lord, he must persevere.

Now that Xia Zuoyi's territory has expanded to fifteen cities.

Then, the existing number of soldiers in the cavalry team is no longer enough to be sent to various cities for full garrison.

Overall, it just isn't enough.

Xia Zuoyi ordered the Thorn Chamber of Commerce to spread the news widely in the branches or offline strongholds in each city.

——There is a reason for this year, so I deliberately made an exception and implemented conscription again.

He will set up conscription points in each city, and anyone who meets the conditions can participate, including but not limited to civilians or slaves...

Among them, if slaves want to participate in conscription, the manor owner must release them. After the slaves who have passed the preliminary review leave, the manor owner can go to the branch of the Thorn Chamber of Commerce to receive compensation.

At this stage, there are too many things to deal with, but too few available candidates.

Xia Zuoyi was so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground, she was overwhelmed.

The first thing to be solved is to arrange a mayor for management in each city as soon as possible.

Caes is already in charge of the Marquis Marquis, but the remaining thirteen cities, including Fort Comoi, still lack administrators.

Xia Zuoyi exchanged her prestige points for a lot of related books.

For example, the content of the administrative ability test.

Judit walked into the study with lemonade, and saw the little lord lying on the table writing and drawing, not even aware that one cheek was accidentally stained with ink, and he was so absorbed in himself.

Judit put the lemonade away gently, and walked to Xia Zuoyi's side to wipe it clean for him.

Xia Zuoyi obediently raised her head, remembering something and said, "Judit, have the priests from Kaes arrived in Wissus?"

Although the church and shrine of Kaes were destroyed, the bishop and bishop's deputy were also disposed of.

But there are many pastors and deacons below.

These people obeyed orders, and their sins were not so serious that they were sentenced to death.

What's more, people who can be pastors or deacons are all learned, at least able to read and write.

Such people are talents wherever they are placed.

It would be a shame to ignore the past.

Moreover, the Holy See has a special theological day, and the clergy in the church will specially spread and teach theological knowledge on the theological day.

Some clergymen even made great achievements in music and mathematics.

Otherwise, the clergy would not be so respected.

Xia Zuoyi: If you don't bring back the ready-made teacher, you will be sorry for yourself :)

Judith said: "It is estimated that we will be able to reach Weishas in two days. What do you want them to do?"

Xia Zuoyi: "If you want to take the exam, write the paper."

He wanted someone to come up with a set of papers for the comprehensive administrative ability assessment test.

Assessment of speech comprehension and expression, judgment and reasoning, data analysis, logical questions, etc...

Those who participate in the mayor's assessment in the territory must also have strict conditions, such as age range, basic arithmetic ability, logical analysis ability, etc.

Xia Zuoyi will release the news and conditions of the assessment through the Thorn Chamber of Commerce, and those who are interested will go to Weishas to take the examination within two months.
