Release that Witch

Chapter 268: First plenary meeting (on)

Roland held the first high-level plenary session of Bianbu Town in the castle parlour.

Compared with the first time that Barov and his more than a dozen apprentices supported the scene, the city hall has now developed into a large group of nearly 100 people. Among them are the aristocrats, the captive knights and the envy, and completed the primary education and obtained the diploma. Aboriginal people.

Thanks to the growth of the population, various departments have also taken shape, so that the City Hall finally has a little prince expectation. He doesn't have to do everything himself as he did before. Now, with some simple policies and plans, as soon as he confesses, this rudimentary city hall can dismantle the task to various departments, which makes Roland feel full. It is gratifying.

The participants of the first high-level meeting were all the top leaders of the department, namely Minister of Agriculture Sene Dali, Secretary of the Ministry of Education, head of the Ministry of Chemical Industry, Kemo Stoll (temporary), and Minister of Construction Carl Van Gogh. Burt, the head of the army, the iron axe, and the head of the city hall, Barov Mons. The Ministry of Industry is still managed by Roland himself. After all, no one but him knows what industrialization is like.

Everyone has a bucket of ice water around them, and the ice cubes in the cool buckets are enchanted by candlelight, and they can last at least one morning in the water. Even if the sun is burning outside, the castle hall still maintains a cool temperature.

“Therefore, each department separately reported the recent situation,” Roland took the kettle out of the bucket and poured himself a glass of ice water. “Start with the Ministry of Agriculture.”

"Yes, Your Highness." Seony got up and took a gift, and then spread out the paper rolls prepared in advance. "The amount of food that was turned over this time was around 17,000. This number is enough to satisfy all the townspeople. In addition to the food needs in the summer of the year, the Ministry of Agriculture purchases the remaining food at the market price according to your request, but this number is far less than the rate of payment, currently only 4,500."

The so-called cockroach is a commonly used wheat weighing container, a scorpion made of bamboo, so this number is also to listen to it. He does not know how to convert it into kilograms or rise. It is not important. The key is He knows that the food collected can support the townspeople.

The key lies in the second point. If the calculation is based on the method of collecting 70% of the retained funds, the purchased grain should be around 7,000, and the portion reserved for grain and seeds for the next year will not be used as much. In other words, some serfs did not sell the remaining 30% of the food to the city hall, but chose to hoard it in the wooden shed.

Although this situation was foreseen early in the morning, he actually sighed with a slight sigh. The purpose of the grain is obvious. It is intended to speculate and sell. If there is insufficient food supply in the town, or natural disasters and man-made disasters, they can sell a much higher price than the market price. It is not impossible to turn it over ten times.

This is why Roland has set the food transaction as a city hall franchise and the purchaser must present his identity card. The food issue is related to the most basic stability of Bianbu Town. In the case that the grain is not surplus in the early stage, if the sale is restricted, it is easy to be hoarded by the purchase of people, and finally the food price will rise. The real-name system purchases quantitative food, while prohibiting other sales channels, in order to maintain the grain price on a stable line.

"His Highness, why don't you force the acquisition of wheat in the hands of the serfs?" Sene asked doubtfully. "The law is not allowed to sell to others."

"Because that is their private property, how to deal with them is their freedom," Roland replied. "I did not stipulate that serfs should not keep their own food. You can also understand that as long as the plain text is not prohibited, it is allowed."

Sene seems a bit confused and doesn't seem to know how to understand this sentence. Not only him, most people frowned, only Barov showed a thoughtful look.

“Is there anything else to report?” Roland drank a sip of water. This kind of emphasis on the rules and procedures is only waiting for them to slowly comprehend, or to understand this, to be a new era. Qualified officer. Of course, this set is also easy to go to the other extreme, leading to the emergence of bureaucracy, but how bureaucratization is better than chaos or chaos.

"Oh... yes," said Seneley Daly. "Now the fields have been harvested. I don't know how to arrange the fallow plan for the next year?"

“No, these land are not ploughed, and the wheat will continue to grow in the coming year,” Roland waved. “The manure piled up on the edge of the field was prepared for fertile land. Then you instruct the serfs to shovel them into the field and mix them thoroughly with the soil. The empty position will continue to pile up new manure." The hot and humid weather in summer can be used to make it ripe in just two months, while in winter it takes about four months. When the spring of the year comes, not only has the soil quality been improved by the first batch of compost, but he also has a new batch of compost that can be used as a base fertilizer, and there is no need to fallow.

Not to mention the fertilizer on the tall, it is already a great improvement in the application of human and livestock fertilizer to agricultural production.

"Well, if this is what you asked for." He touched his head. "In addition... Your Highness, so many wheats may not be ground by one or two stone mills. I want to apply to build a mill next to the Chishui River. It is best to be powered by a steam engine."

"Yes," Roland nodded. This was another new breakthrough. In addition to himself, someone finally began to try to use this new power. "You first propose to Barov, and then get funding and then work with the Ministry of Construction. Detailed plan."

"Okay, Your Highness," said Seni. "The last thing is that the free people are promoted. This time, a total of 516 people have been promoted, because they are strictly divided according to the amount of wheat paid, so there is no When someone raised an objection, I have already reported the list to the Baroque." Then he got up again and saluted. "My report is over."

“Good job,” Roland took two palms to encourage. The young knight of the original singer’s family now seems to have adapted to the town’s life, and he still has a good example in the city hall. It’s an excellent publicity model under a little packaging. In the future, he will recruit the fortress and the aristocrats and knights. It can play a small role.

The second one was the book. Her long hair was behind her head, wearing a clean and white shirt, and a pure black dress without any decoration and lace. She was mature and capable. It is hard to imagine that six months ago, she was an exiled witch who had to hide from Tibet in order to avoid the church.

“There are currently two batches of people completing primary education, a total of 85 people, most of whom have studied at the college run by Mr. Carl.” Her ability is unforgettable, so there is no need to prepare for reporting data. A little bit of Roland is envious. "Forty-six of them chose to work in the city hall, 21 people decided to go to the bicycle factory, and 13 people applied to join the first army." She said that she had paused here. People signed up for a chemical laboratory post."

Five people? Roland couldn't help but look at Camo Spoel, and the latter's face is obviously not very good-looking. It seems that the publicity effect of the awarding ceremony is far less good than what one expected. As a result, some of the three newly built laboratories may have to be idle for some time.

Fortunately, the employment rate is at least 100%, he comforted himself. (To be continued. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
