The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

Chapter 40

The duke is dead and the turmoil is over

The peace that the manor and the commoners expected finally arrived again, but there were more things to deal with afterwards.

The Kingdom of Jadayat ceased to exist, and Kaaisi was no longer a royal city.

——Instead, the vast territory named Desinia, as the administrative center of Weissas.

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

Shazoi Desinia has absolute ruling power in the territory.

Fifteen cities, including Wessas, will only welcome the only lord, and the regulations of dividing the land and entrusting the lord to vassal will be cancelled.

With the exception of Visas, an administrative level system was introduced in the remaining 14 cities, and positions and titles were established in different levels.

The highest officials in the remaining cities are the mayors, who serve and manage the lord.

The mayor is not a vassal of the lord, but a subordinate. He no longer has privileges in the cities he manages, has no right to privately set up taxes, courts, checkpoints, etc., and has no right to privately recruit troops.

The only person with the right to conscript is the lord.

at the same time.

The fifteen cities in the Desinian territory will send soldiers to garrison, and establish a clear hierarchy among the soldiers.

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

The cities that lost their lords due to the Duke’s turmoil will re-elect suitable candidates in Visas.

They will serve as the mayors of various cities and handle various affairs for the lord.

In addition, the mayor will also set up officials in batches, and every official, including the mayor, needs to pass an assessment before they can take office.

The new regulations issued by the Desinian lord were quickly disseminated among fifteen cities through the official documents and propaganda issued by the Thorns Chamber of Commerce.

Many people were shocked by this.

Xia Zoe Desinia is still the lord, not the king.

He abolished the system of vassalization of lord and vassal in his territory…Such an approach is unique in the Western Continent.

This also caused some old-school nobles to hold a very disapproving attitude towards this, and even began to oppose Xia Zoe’s decision.

They asked Xia Zoe to re-appoint the lord’s vassal, appoint nobles to other cities as lords, and restore the lord to have the highest rule in his own territory…

Everything is the same as before and cannot be changed.

Most of these old-school nobles were people who lived in royal cities and had no territories.

They were previously intimidated or controlled by Buss Ridges or intimidation… There was no way to support him on the throne.

Now they are united to oppose Shazoe because Kaysi is no longer a royal city, and the lords’ enfeoffment system is cancelled, which has touched their fundamental interests.

It is even said that there are other people in the royal family’s collateral line, and Shazoi Desinia does not inherit the throne, but can choose someone else.

These words sound ridiculous.

The other sidelines of the royal family are incapable of fighting against Bath Riches.

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

Xia Zoe’s response to this was to send soldiers one by one to invite them to Wesas for a “detailed discussion.”

If there are no more objections to the policy he proposed, these people will naturally be put back to Kaaisi and still maintain their original lives.

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

If you have time to jump up and down to find trouble, most of them are idle.

That being the case, Xia Zoe didn’t mind raising a few more idlers in the city.

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

That is the son of the Marquis of Marco Keys, that is, Nat Keys. He is very talented in language, and he is very good at playing tricks.

Talking to the group of nobles, each of them was speechless and poor in reason.

Xia Zuoyi expressed his doubts. Since I can say that, why would he be fooled by Fernandi with a gold coin in Kaysri?

He asked.

Nat blushed and hesitated: “Just…just…the first time someone called my brother so sweetly.”

They are also cute.

He scratched his ears with embarrassment: “Besides, it’s just a slave. I don’t care about one more or one less… But who would have thought that this person would become the chief of the lord’s black cavalry in the future. Sir…”

Nat whispered: “I knew I wouldn’t sell it.”

Xia Zoe: “If you don’t sell Fernandi to me, how can he become the governor now.”

Nat murmured: “If you say that, I’m selling it right.”

After coming here, he can always meet Fernandi in Visas, and he feels a little uncomfortable in his heart and feels uncomfortable.

After all, he beat Fernandi so badly in Kaesne…

Xia Zoe: “I intend to make the Marquis of Keys the mayor of Kays.”

“After all, he once served as an important minister in the royal city. He must be handy to deal with all the affairs in the city again… You will be able to return to Kaaisi with your father in a short time.”

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

Soon after he took the initiative to find Fernandi, he stubbornly apologized for what happened at the beginning: “…I hope you, the Chief Executive, will not hate me for this matter.”

Fernandi: “I didn’t hate you. It wasn’t your fault. I thought I had revenge at that time. I didn’t have any nostalgia. I wanted to die and angered you deliberately.”

Nat breathed a sigh of relief.

He patted Fernandi on the shoulder and said, “Actually, I also think there is nothing wrong with me.”

“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, yes, of course, I now have a deep understanding of the mistakes, I am young and ignorant, too Arrogant…”

Nat finally confessed dryly under Fernandi’s silent gaze, and the paw patted on the shoulder was also tremblingly retracted, and smiled awkwardly.

Fernandi said, “Why did you come to me to admit your mistake?”

Nat hesitated: “I want to work with Lord Lord, and I don’t want to return to Kaaisi with my father…”

“You are also serving with Lord Lord. If the two of us have a rift because of what happened at the beginning, it will definitely make it difficult for the little Lord. I don’t want to solve it first.”

Fernandi: “Is it a bit early for you to consider these now?”

Nat reacted quickly: “…you laugh at me!”

He narrowed his mouth again and said: “You are 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, his expression a little distressed and depressed.

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

When he heard this, Nat looked hesitant and lacking in confidence.

Fernandi: “If you can’t pass the exam, go back to Kaes and help by the Marquis of Case.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Nat gritted his teeth behind and shouted, “I can definitely do it!”

For the little lord, he must also persist.

Since Xia Zoe’s territory has been expanded to fifteen cities.

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

In general, it is not enough.

Xia Zoe ordered the Chamber of Thorns Chamber of Commerce to spread the news widely in its branches or offline bases in each city.

——This year, there was a reason for the incident, so we made a special exception and implemented conscription again.

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

Among them, if the slave wants to participate in the conscription, the owner of the manor must let him go. After that, the slave who has passed the preliminary examination leaves, and the owner of the manor can go to the branch of the Thorns Chamber of Commerce to receive compensation.

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

Xia Zuoyi was too busy to take care of it.

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

Kays has been in charge of the Marquis of Marco Keys, but the remaining thirteen cities, including Fort Comoy, still lack managers.

Xia Zoe exchanged prestige points for many related books.

For example, the examination content of the administrative ability test, etc.

Udit walked into the study with lemonade, and saw the little lord lying on the table writing and drawing. He didn’t even know that one of his cheeks was accidentally stained with ink, and the little appearance was attentive.

Judit gently put the lemonade away and walked to Xia Zoe’s side and wiped it clean for him.

Xia Zoe looked up obediently, remembering something: “Udit, have the priests of Kays arrived in Wesas?”

Although the church and temple of Kays were destroyed, the bishop and the deputies of the bishop were also disposed of.

But there are many pastors, deacons, etc. below.

These people acted on orders, and their sins were not so serious that they were given death.

What’s more, people who can be pastors or deacons are all knowledgeable, at least literate.

Such people are talents wherever they are placed.

It is a shame to ignore the past.

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

Some clergy even made great achievements in music and mathematics.

Otherwise, the clergy would not be so respected.

Xia Zoe: I’m sorry if I don’t bring the ready-made teacher back to squeeze me 🙂

Udit said: “It is estimated that we will be able to reach Wess in two days. What do you want them to do?”

Xia Zuoyi: “I want to test questions and write papers.”

He wants to have a set of papers for comprehensive administrative ability assessment tests.

Examine speech comprehension and expression, judgment and reasoning, data analysis, logic problems, etc…

People in the territory participating in the mayor’s assessment must also have strict conditions, such as age range, basic arithmetic skills, and logical analysis skills.

Xia Zoe will pass the thorns chamber of commerce to release the assessment news and conditions, and those who intend to go to Wesas to take the exam within two months.
