Release that Witch

Chapter 455: The second step of Jiancheng

In order to appease the uneasy feelings of the nobles, Roland specially arranged a rich banquet.

In the middle of the hall is a long table covered with white cloth. The nobles who come to sit in the opposite direction, in the middle are various dishes, wine and flowers.

After the two glasses of red wine, the atmosphere eased a lot, and the big nobility has all fallen, honeysuckle and elk are standing on the side of Roland, and the remaining little nobles will not jump out to sing in this time, but the talk will be revealed. Intention to take the initiative to rely on. In this situation, Roland knows that it is time to put his newly established order on the table.

After a full meal, he handed out the small book prepared in advance to the hands of the nobility.

That is his "propaganda album" carefully prepared.

"His Royal Highness... What is this," and sure enough, the aristocrats soon asked in amazement, "Why is the painting above actually so realistic?"

"Yes, it's just like the real thing."

"It's not like drawing... no pigments can express such delicate colors."

No loss is the nobility in the big city. It can be seen that these people have certain appreciation for painting. Roland smiled and said, "They are indeed painted by the painter, but if there is any difference, then this is The painter is a witch, and the paint she paints is the omnipresent magic."

These words made everyone's body stiff, and the book in the hand was not, not letting it.

“The local church forces have vanished, what are you worried about?” The prince raised a brow. “The witch is no different from us. I have verified this many times.”

"Cough...cough," Pedro almost stunned. "His Highness is right."

"No loss is the four princes, haha...ha," the other nobles laughed awkwardly.

Hey, it seems that he said something quite ambiguous. Roland pretended to be nothing, and changed the subject to serve as a prince for more than a year. He found himself at a level that was not shocking... or the thickness of his skin was soaring. "The picture is just for The content is more vivid, and the story described above is the focus."

The crowd continued to look at a few pages, and the little girl of the Elk family, Orilyan, quickly raised her head. "Is this a family history of aristocrats?"

"Aurelian!" Ryan whispered a voice and reminded, "Give your Highness!"

"Yes, he used to be a Western aristocrat," Roland made a gesture of "no one should remember him."

"His Royal Highness... I know him," said a knight. "Tiguin Pine, he is my neighbor, and the land of the two of us has been put together."

"I have seen him too," another person recalled. "It seems to be a baron. His father is the vassal of Joey Cole. Since Joey left the West, his territory has declined."

“The Viscounts of Tigu are currently in the town of Bianque,” ​​Roland smiled. “And this album records the passages I and him know... and what happened later. As you can see, he is living under the new system. The nobles are currently busy practicing the firearms. It is estimated that by the end of the evil month, he will take his daughter and the attendant and go to the fascinating forest to enjoy the hunting fun. As far as I know, since he sold the fortress east The territory, after the peace of mind settled in Bianbu Town, the rank was promoted to a level, and the family property has also increased several times."

Fear comes from the unknown, and the same is true of the resistance to institutional change, because they don't know what impact they will have on themselves after the change. Roland asked Soroya to portray the life of Tigou Pine in the form of a comic book. As an example of his own propaganda, it was to reduce the resistance and fear of the nobility. Compared to those boring textual biographies, it is clear that the expressive power of comics is more vivid.

"You should all know that I am about to build a city in the West. In fact, I have been brewing this plan for a long time. By then, Bianbu Town, Changge Fortress and the narrow land between the two places will be turned into a whole." Roland continued, " Some people may ask how the two towns are far apart, how can they be integrated into one. First of all, the overall meaning refers to the administrative, that is, the new city will implement the same law and the same policy, which is also what I want to recover. The reasons for the aristocratic separatist and legal rights."

"His Royal Highness, then our territory..." someone asked.

"It's still yours," he interrupted. "I said that taking back these powers does not mean that you will lose what is the essence of the separation. It is to deliver your own territory to others to form your own lower-level aristocrats. With your own strength, you can resist the enemy together, or work together to gain benefits. Under the new system, the task of resisting foreign enemies will be completed by a professional army. As long as you follow the rules, the benefits you earn will far exceed the past. After all, It's better to make the cake bigger than to divide the cake."

Seeing everyone's silence, Roland smiled. "You have never been to Bianbu Town, so I don't know how big the cake can be. It is normal. In fact, the financial income of the town reached 30,000 Jinlong in the second half of the year, if not The demon moon is coming early, and this number is likely to increase by another 10,000."

The nobles took a sigh of relief, "three ... 30,000?"

Roland has already learned from Pei Luo about the financial situation of the fortress over the years. The annual income of the city hall is no more than this number, let alone these little nobles. One hundred golden dragons are huge sums for them.

"And as a manager of all walks of life in the future, you can naturally get rich returns from it." He raised his lips. "After returning to the city, apart from administrative unity, geographically, the two towns will gradually For example, I arrived at the Long Song Fortress from Bianbu Town. It took only one day. When the construction of Wangdao Avenue was completed, the land walking time will be shortened to one day. If it is riding a horse or riding a bicycle, it only takes half a day to arrive. Don't mention faster transportation."

"What is a bicycle?" Orillian was curious.

“A manpower riding tool runs very fast on the ground,” the prince laughed. “I dare say five years... No, within three years, we can have breakfast at the fortress and then go to work in the town. "The kingdom avenue shortened the distance between the two places to 60 kilometers by using the whole line, and replaced it with a railroad locomotive or a car, which is half an hour."

However, the minds of most nobles were not placed on this. The knight, who claimed to be a neighbor of Tiguin, was asked cautiously. "His Highness, what you said just now, is it necessary to hand over the fortress to us?" Management?"

"It is neither, nor is it," Roland smiled. "As I said before, after the completion of the city, the two places are integrated in the administrative sense. The fortress will be transformed into a city area and will be under the jurisdiction of the Central City Hall. But now It is said that the day is still too far away, so I will set up a lower-level town hall in the Changge District, which will divide many lower-level departments according to the current model of Bianbu Town, and you will work in these departments and handle the land. Specific issues."

"Subordinates... Departments?" The nobles showed a confused look on their faces.

“Managing a region is a very complicated job. Although it can bring you good returns, it is not so easy to do a good job,” Roland nodded. “So when the order here is restored, You have to follow me to Bianbu Town to experience the function of a fully functional city hall. You need to learn one thing to manage this course." (To be continued.)
