Chapter 52： cooperation two

Paul was tickled by Hansel's words.

Faced with the current situation of illiteracy everywhere in the territory, the earl has a hard time. All kinds of workshops need to be expanded, and the training of apprentices cannot always rely on word of mouth; the number of craftsmen is increasing, and managers at all levels must at least be able to understand the roster; the income and expenditure of the territory are becoming more and more complicated, and the old housekeeper Philip alone The management of the accounts is already powerless; the intelligence system needs to be improved, which obviously requires a large number of talents who can not only read and write; he also plans to establish a modern administrative system, which requires a large number of clerks.

The "Talent Recruitment Decree" was actually posted a long time ago, and many people came to apply for it, but it still couldn't meet the current needs of the territory.

Before setting off to Fuland Port, he approached Leonard, the head of the North Shore Monastery, hoping to recruit a group of educated monks to serve him, but Leonard refused at first on the grounds that the monks did not interfere with the world. He had no choice but to change his strategy, saying that in order to spread the Gospel of God, he planned to build a school to teach the people how to read, so that they could understand the holy scriptures. Hearing this, Dean Leonard was a little tempted, and Paul promised that his workshop would supply unlimited free new paper to the North Shore Monastery, and finally Mr. Dean agreed: He will not interfere with the personal choices of the monks in the monastery, and he can How many people are recruited depends entirely on Paul's ability.

So a school named "Wess College" was established on the riverside. During the day, the Earl ordered the residents of Huxin Town to send their children to the college to learn characters, and at night, he ordered the army to search every house and arrest those adults under the age of 40 who were idle at home to attend night classes in the college.

The Earl coaxed and tricked him into recruiting 10 young monks from the monastery. They were all just adults. The world is very curious. Of course, in the words of Dean Leonard, "the belief in the Lord is not strong enough to withstand the temptation of the colorful world outside."

These 10 young people were all stuffed into the college by Paul, from monks to teachers, a group of 5 took turns to go to work during the day and night to teach the townspeople to read. After returning to Huxin Town from Fulan Port, for some purpose, Morrison, who had just been a military priest for a while, was appointed as the dean of the college to manage teachers and students in a unified manner. Next, he is responsible for formulating courses and compiling teaching materials. The obscure sacred scriptures are obviously too advanced for small and large townspeople who have just started to read, but the heroic stories about the great lord leading the brave people to fight against pirates are easy to understand Too much, and sometimes Morrison personally went into battle to brainwash teachers and students... Oh no, it was some ideological education.

But it all takes time, and Paul can't wait.

Seeing the count stand up, Hansel was secretly happy, he guessed right. He went to the academy established by Paul, and said that in order to show their kindness, some nobles recruited a few qualified commoner children for education occasionally, but that was mostly to train some capable servants. It is rare for Earl Greiman to flourish culture and education in his own territory. It is not a good thing for the nobles if the common people know too much. They just need to farm the land honestly and pay taxes. All signs show that this earl has far-reaching plans, and it is intriguing to think that its ancestors were relegated to the Northwest Gulf.

Will it develop into a second Giles? It is possible, but very slim, that the Giles family can have the current strength. In addition to the efforts of the previous generations of patriarchs, luck, opportunity and territorial location are also important factors. Who can guarantee that the Greiman family will have the same luck? What's more, it is still in the remote northwest bay. Besides, achieving the achievements of the Giles family is by no means a matter of one day. It takes several generations of forbearance and development to complete the accumulation.

Hansel knew that the new type of paper that had been widely circulated recently was made by the earl, so when Paul talked about improving agricultural technology and smelting technology, he judged that the credibility was nine out of ten. As far as Hansel is concerned, he has some contacts among the lower nobles in the south, and he can dig those who are also depressed like him to the northwest to give the earl what he wants. As long as the earl can cooperate with him and continuously provide His Majesty with military supplies, he will be a great achievement, and he will be able to enter the sight of the kingdom's high-level officials and get close to the core of power.

He hates himself for being a concubine, he hates his other half of blood, he hates himself for not being taken seriously, he must seize every opportunity to climb up. As for whether the Gleiman family has some kind of ambition, anyway, this generation will not see it, and after his death, it will be flooded.

Hansel looked at Paul who stood up, the light of the setting sun fell on him through the window, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Finally, the young earl on the opposite side stretched out his right hand and said with a smile, "Let's get to know Paul Grayman again, the lord of Arda on the northwest coast."

Hansel also stood up, stretched out his right hand, and also smiled back: "Hansel Abbott, His Majesty's representative to Arda."

"Pleasant cooperation."

"Pleasant cooperation."

The two hands are tightly held togetherSouth, Pass of Thorns.

Two figures stood quietly on the towering city wall, one was an old man with gray hair but hale and hearty, and the other was a young general with a slightly indifferent expression.

They looked at the rebel camp in the distance quietly for a while, and the old man among them sighed: "It seems that we are going to have a difficult time."

The young general asked strangely: "Why did Lord Dodge say that? Just wait for Her Royal Highness to lead the army here, and we will be able to take the initiative to attack."

The old Duke Dodge took out a small piece of cloth and handed it to the young man: "This is just delivered by a carrier pigeon, you can see for yourself."

The young man took the cloth strip and glanced at it, with a trace of worry mixed in his expression, "Is the granary on fire? It's really time."

The old Duke shrugged: "Nine out of ten spies did a good job. Judging from the previous attacks, Giles' main force is not with us. What do you think, Lester?"

Lester looked to the south: "He just wants to pin us down, so that he can free up his hands and slowly clean up those isolated and helpless king supporters in the south."

Duke Dodge sighed again: "If His Highness's main force can't reach here, we can only defend here. I hope that the food and grass problem can be solved before the main force of Giles goes north."

Lester looked at him suddenly: "Your Excellency, you can't wait like this. Tonight I want to lead the cavalry to attack the opposite camp at night."

The young man is eager to make contributions, but what is needed is this energy, Duke Dodge secretly admired it. The expression of the young man in front of him reminded him of the energy he had in the Northeast Army's defense against the orcs, and those comrades in arms. They were so young and eager to make contributions at that time.

The old prince was full of pride: "Okay, it's time to teach the enemy a lesson."
