Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 305: Territory status

"Every student sitting here is because they have mastered the magical power in a certain direction when they are promoted. It may not be accurate to use the word'master', because you are in the cognitive stage, perhaps using'awakening' is more Suitable."

"The reason why I sit here is to help the students complete the process of magic power from awakening to mastery."

"Life is full of so many possibilities..."

Igrid had obviously prepared the lesson, and he was sitting on the podium at the moment and was speaking in a good manner, talking about all kinds of high-level and superficial magical knowledge, but the goblin body was slightly petite.

Saul leaned against the door of the magic classroom, watched Igrit's performance without stage fright, and finally felt relieved.

A certain intermittent little shiitake mushroom could not help but look over from the podium, as if to seek some kind of encouragement or affirmation.

Saul smiled and nodded, then stretched out his tongue and licked around his mouth.

"Uh... this... next we talk about... this." Seeing Saul's bad appearance, Igrit's smooth narration suddenly stumbled, and she could only blush and lower her head, that was dull. It looks cute.

Can't pick up the simple little shiitake mushrooms, otherwise it will be bad to disturb the classroom discipline, and Sol smiled and left the magic classroom.

Coming to the coin and merit exchange point, Beth was sorting out some transaction records. All three exchange windows have female staff in the territory busy. Beth is a bit more relaxed than before, and only needs to be responsible for supervision and coordination.

"Ah! Lord Lord!" The shocked Andor interrupted Thor's sneak attack, making Beth prepared.

In the greeting and sight of a room, Saul gently wrapped Beth's waist, and then took out a ring.

"I got a set of jewelry yesterday." Seeing the ring in Saul's palm, Beth was a little confused.

"No, this is not ordinary jewelry. This is a spatial ring, the same as mine, but the storage space may be smaller. Take it with you and engrave your mental power, so you can use it in the future." Beth whispered softly in her ear.

"This can't work, it's too important... Maybe Petty and Igrit are more useful." Beth hurriedly waved her hands.

"Important shit, ten rings are not as good as a single hair of yours." Saul put his head on Beth's shoulder, rubbed her face, then grabbed her little hand and lowered her head to help her put the ring on On the slender fingers.

"Huh? Did you forget something?" Seeing Beth, who was only touched, Thor scowled.

Beth blushed and put her arms around Saul's neck in the smiling eyes of her, and offered a sweet kiss.

"I... so happy!" Anduo put his hands on his chest, his eyes flickered.

Just watch your happy ass? Sol was amused.

Rubbing Andor's little head, she is usually busy with Beth, while Fingie is sent to follow Petty.

Originally, Sol planned to help Igrit also arrange a little maid to take care of her life. But Igrit shook his head desperately, claiming that he didn't need it, and that someone would be unaccustomed to following it, and in the end Saul did not force it.

Leaving the exchange point, there was still snow in the sky outside the house, now it is the tail of the cold winter, and the last few days of wind and snow.

Solved the problem of the curse and the mentor, and then Thor became the ubiquitous lord.

Of course, being everywhere is actually just a joke nowadays.

After all, the city of Liberty nowadays, compared with the original small settlements, has expanded its area a few times, and it takes a lot of time just to stroll down the entire territory. And the population has grown from the original more than one hundred people to nearly three thousand now.

It turned out that when there were more than a hundred people, Thor could roughly call out the names of everyone in the territory, knowing the area they were in charge of and what they were doing. It is obviously impossible now, too many strange faces appear here to seek a stable life.

Some of these people come from far away where life is difficult, some follow caravans, and some even come to settle in the merchants themselves.

When the number of people in the future exceeds 10,000 and the City of Freedom can really be called a ‘city’, then the subordinates will become even more unfamiliar.

In fact, it is not just Sol, even Start and Diller, who often show up in front of the people, and Beth Petty and other managements, are gradually fading out of the horizons of the new leaders at the bottom.

The swelling of the population, the greed and gloom of all kinds of people's hearts have gradually begun to be exposed, increasing the pressure on public security. These are all normal. As long as the army and force are seized, the suppression that should be suppressed, the sweep that should be mopped up, will stabilize the situation.

Of course, while exercising force, a relatively fair and convincing management system must also be in place. Those have been prepared before, and in the future they will be nothing more than improvements based on the current development situation.

The material distribution point has been closed, because nowadays the booming market has replaced the role of trade.

In the future, construction merits will no longer be performed in the territory, and only combat merits will be used to motivate morale. The recruitment of various construction personnel and the final settlement of wages in the territory have also returned to the method of cash distribution.

Nowadays, the funds required for the construction and maintenance of the territory no longer need to be borne by Sol. Otherwise, as the size and population of the territory continue to increase, no amount of money for Sol personally will be able to play.

At present, the main income of the territory is mainly tax and mining. During the time when the tax was asleep in Thor's advancement, Beth imposed a 10% tax rate in the territory. Later, after the business and market stabilized, the quota has now been increased to 20%.

Beth is always in charge of the taxation of the territory. Compared with other territories, the tax of 20% is not even a burden for the common people. This is also called the city of freedom. The root cause of'Happy Land'.

However, this quota is only for ordinary people in the territory, and there is another tax system on the commercial side, which Scott is in charge of.

The mining side is a vast and long-term resource. Some time ago, a blacksmith union was established under the leadership of the blacksmith Jeff, together with the masons, carpenters, cobblers and so on in the territory, it was put under the industry.

The minting department under Jeff's responsibility is attached to the military department, and each batch of new minting is used to fill the funding gap in all aspects of the territory.

Currently in charge of the industry is a middle-aged man named Sid.

The man is reliable and pragmatic, and Thor met him and his family at the feast in the Lord's Mansion.

Nowadays, the management of all aspects of the territory is mainly based on the point-to-face, and then the tower-like management that faces a larger area.

Generally speaking, the Territory has been making money at present, and a lot of funds will still be sent to Beth after the settlement of all aspects every month.

It is a pity that Sol still feels that everything is too slow. The current 3,000 population of the territory will not be able to keep up with the size of Odrensa even if it doubles one hundred times. Naturally, it is impossible to talk about the confrontation and dealings with the Dark Council. You rarely think about it.

Of course, there is no other way. The development of the territory requires a large population, and the population needs a lot of food for support, and food needs more arable land, which in turn requires more manpower.

This is like a cycle connected by various key points. While developing steadily, it conversely restricts its own development speed. One of the points that is too advanced will not pull the territory to run, but will only bring the situation to collapse.

The development of the world has its own logic and process. No matter how big your ideals are, you need a stage to display. No matter how many ideas you have, it takes process and time. Forcibly speeding up will eventually only lead to car crashes and deaths.

When Saul faced the behemoth of the Dark Council at first, he was already very clear.

To bring down an ancient and deep-rooted force, or enter the opponent's system and become a part of it, and find a way to corrupt and split from the inside. Either pull up a force by yourself and have the strength to wrestle with the opponent.

Sol seems to have chosen the latter one, but in fact he has always been very clear that neither path will work. The management and heritage of countless generations of others. You want to rely on the efforts of one generation to chase and surpass, it is obviously not realistic.

Initially, the Territory Thor was not built to earn money or rights, but to be able to have a certain strength on the mainland to make his own voice, and this power undoubtedly came from the force of the territory.

Today's "Scarlet Cross" in the Free City may be called a force, which may be used to deter the surrounding territories, but it is still too weak to scale to the entire continent.

Speaking of it, Saul gradually began to feel a little dull.

He is a thorough liberal, and fighting for power has never been the theme of his life. If he just wants to accumulate wealth or pull up a team that can help, he can do it even if he doesn't have a territory as a backrest.

The many chores in the current territory have drawn too much energy on him. In comparison, he misses the days of fishing and swinging his sword even more, but unfortunately he personally complicates his life.

Of course, the construction of the territory is not meaningless to this day, at least I and the mushrooms have a home.

Sol plans to wait until the city of Liberty has a population of over 10,000 before building another city hall.

Then he gave up his lord position, and then took back all his shiitake mushrooms. Everyone walked around to see if traveling on the mainland was not good? Why do you have to live so tired?

But Saul suspected that he might not see a good day.

Now that the City of Freedom takes root here, the main city of Allantis in the north will definitely not let the City of Freedom grow bigger, or even if they let it go, it will take many, many years for the City of Freedom to grow. This is only mainland China. The situation.

Saul knew very well that his account with the Dark Council was gone, and he might not be able to do it in this life. After all, he sent the children and grandchildren favored by the two or three elders to the gods.

It has been a year since the riot in Odrensa, and Sol can't figure it out. Are those old guys watching or waiting for something, waiting for their old age to die? Even if you put them to death, you can't die.

So Saul suspected that they might be brewing something to kill. When the time was right, the killing opportunity would naturally emerge.

As for the level that I can't pass, it's hard to say.
