Chapter 30 Action Meeting

Among the knights of the Wesson family, old Franz was the oldest and most experienced. When he was young, he fought with Frederick's grandfather and conquered the territory of the Wesson family.

Time is not forgiving, and fighters can maintain peak strength for a long time, but their strength has not reached the strength of Richard Nall. Once the body ages to a certain extent, its strength will quickly decline.

Franz has a middle-aged son. Franz Jr. is in his 20s this year. He traveled around five years ago and only returned to Wessenland a few days ago.

Old Franz knew that he was going to retire, and while he still had the right to speak in the family, he let his son show his face in front of Frederick.

Although little Franz was the strongest of the younger generation in the territory, Frederick had never seen him for most of his life, and old Franz felt that his son was almost like a stranger in front of the master.

Frederick saw that it was Franz Jr. walking to the map, and immediately said with a playful smile: "If you don't speak well, you can go digging out bird eggs in the future."

Old Franz breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the master still remembered his son.

Little Franz took the thumbstick from Richard Nall, smiled at Frederick and the others, and began to talk about the plan to transport the victims: "The journey from Lore to Wessenburg The journey is about 200 kilometers, and the first stop in Wessenland is the town of Howson.”

"I just walked through this road when I came back this time. A camp can be set up every 40 to 60 kilometers along the way. Except for the towns of Lore and Howson, three camps need to be set up in the middle of the road."

Then he clicked three places on the map and continued: "The roadside here is a fallow field, and there are sufficient and clean water sources nearby, suitable for building a camp."

"It takes a morning or afternoon for the carriage to travel between camps. You can send people to the rear in the morning and supplies to the front in the afternoon."

Everyone in the conference room nodded approvingly. He was very thoughtful.

Building a camp does not mean that you can build it just by finding a flat place. First, you must consider the water source, and second, you must also consider the ideas of the landlord's family.

Set up the camp in the fallow field. First, the water source around the farmland can guarantee the use of the camp. Second, the excrement and urine of people and horses can fertilize the field.

The distance between the camps is also reasonable, and the horses have to rest for half a day, otherwise the overdrawing of the horsepower will hurt the horse's body.

"Each camp is divided into five districts," continued Little Franz, "one for the whole family, one for all the men, one for all the women, one for orphans, and the last one for our men and horses."

"We might find some of the women to look after the orphans."

Seeing that he was thinking carefully, Frederick couldn't help but nodded.

After the little Franz finished speaking, Frederick said: "Very well, you two father and son are responsible for the external transportation. The old Franz is stationed in Lorre, and the little Franz will run around more and take care of the rear. of the three camps."

"Jurgen, Lothar, Andre," he pointed to the best of the three younger generations, "each of you is in charge of a camp."

"Do you have any questions about my arrangement?"

Old Franz has a knighthood and is a member of a large noble family, so it is much more convenient to deal with him in the town of Lore.

Jurgen and the others are the second generation of knights. As long as they don't die, they will be canonized soon. The neighbors know these things and won't embarrass them.

Such an arrangement is naturally no problem for everyone.

Orr looked a little surprised at the end of the table.

After being a mercenary leader for so many years, I have never seen any kind of nobleman. It is not uncommon for Frederick's family to provoke the leader before he was ten years old. However, these children have a loyal minister or confidant around In fact, in charge of power, children are just decorations.

At first he thought it was the same with Frederick, but after the meeting continued, he realized that he was wrong. Frederick gave orders like an adult, and others took it for granted.

Then Flick, the administrator, walked to the map. He was in charge of the work in the territory and would be in the town of Howson.

Frick pointed to the small triangles all over the Wessen Territory on the map with a thumbstick and said: "These places are where the new villages are located. The victims are currently resting at the camp in Howson Town for three to five days before heading there on foot."

"The training of the village chiefs of each village has been completed, and the villages have been allocated according to lottery. It will depend on how the actual work will go."

"Now is the slack time for farming. 4000 people have been recruited to clear the land and dig wells for the new village. The new villagers live in tents when they arrive, and at the same time they cut down trees to build walls and build roads."

"We have suspended steel exports since last month, and now the smithy is making tools and can catch up."

"We also invited carpenters who can build houses from carpenters' guilds in other places. The first batch of people arrived yesterday."

"If there are no accidents, everyone can live in new houses before winter, and start land reclamation next spring."

The resettlement work is very complicated, and Frick singles out the basics of food, clothing, housing and transportation to report.

After listening, Frederick said: "If there are not enough houses, let's squeeze. How about winter clothes now?"

Frick nodded and continued to answer: "The cotton cloth and cotton have been bought back. Your Excellency BASF has provided a lot of shoe soles and tarpaulins. Now we have gathered a lot of needleworkers from Wesson to sew clothes, cloth shoes and tents." .”

"In order to allow them to work better, many temporary kindergartens have been opened in cities and towns to help take care of their children."

Frederick asked, "Is the salary enough?"

Frick replied: "Part of the wages are paid with food, and some want steam bread. There is no problem with the wages."

"Where's the food?" Frederick asked again.

Frick replied: "At present, our food is a little richer than originally planned, and it will not be a problem in the long run."

"Now Nina's steam bun workshop is working overtime overnight to make steam multi-grain bread. Students from Wessenburg University help to make condensed soup. They are all packed in bags provided by Mr. BASF. Mr. Manuai takes his students to make steam bread. and condensed soup to kill bugs."

"His Excellency Manuai said that the bugs have been killed. As long as the bag is not opened, the steam bread and condensed soup will not go bad for at least two months. It is objectively estimated that they can be put into next year."

"Now we, Wesson, own more than 800 large and small carriages, and we have recruited [-] remodeled carriages so far."

At this time Frederick said: "These carriages are grouped by region, and ten teams are formed with reference to the army, which is convenient for management."

"Frantz, you have to help Frick deal with this matter."

There are two Franz, one old and one young, and the two father and son don't know who the master is talking about, and who should answer.

Frederick said to little Franz with a smirk: "Why don't you be conscious, don't let our administrator nod, you still want to marry a wife?"

The meeting room was instantly filled with cheerful laughter.

Especially the younger generation, a group of people who have played since they were young, and Franz Jr. is their boss, and these guys laugh the most.

Little Franz accepted the task with a blushing face.

Frederick looked at Orr, who was sitting farthest from him, and asked, "What's your opinion on the conditions I proposed?"

Orr put on a sad face, and said in annoyance: "The conditions proposed by Baron Wesson have caused a wave of blood in our place!"

What he said startled the people in the conference room. They just wanted to cooperate. Why did people die and make a big fuss?
Richard Nall knew the virtue of this guy, and said with an angry look: "The point is, the last time you talked about the huge wave of blood, it was your wife who chased you around the village twice with an axe. "

Orr shrank his neck amid laughter, and said solemnly: "Baron Wesson asked me to hire two hundred veterans to serve as sheriffs. officer."

Frederick smiled. The conditions he offered were quite satisfactory in terms of salary and land. The problem was that as long as he had worked for five years, he could recommend a young man to study at the Weissburg Affiliated School. Those who passed the grades could go to Weissburg University study.

At the same time, he also revealed that Juggernaut Richard Nall is the vice president of Wessenburg University and will teach students in the university.

This is a fatal temptation for mercenaries.

Orr continued: "I kicked out those cheaters, and there are five hundred more, all brought here for you to choose."

Frederick thought for a while, and then said to old Franz: "Go and pick out enough sheriffs, and the rest can stay if you want. After five years, the treatment of recommenders will remain the same. We will expand the army next year."

Wesson and the others were not surprised by the expansion of the army. God knows what the king will do after a while.

After the matter was settled, Orr began to talk about the next thing: "The encirclement and suppression of monsters in the forest is a business. I can take it. According to the agreement, all proceeds will belong to me."

Frederick nodded and replied, "Yes."

Land reclamation is a competition between man and beast for living space. Only when we are full can we have the strength to protect the environment and wild animal resources.

The assembly force in Wesson's territory is extremely weak, and this job is just right for mercenaries.

"Ged, Heinz, Bernd, Mathias, Stefan, Oliver, Michael, Miloslav..." Frederick called out the names of the younger generation, "Each of you is responsible for one area, leading mercenaries and hunters to eliminate monsters."

For young people, this is a rare opportunity to lead troops.

After discussing the big things, everyone discussed the details again.

Before the meeting adjourned, Frederick made a solemn promise: "Tomorrow I will bring a few more gold wares to the Executive Yuan, and if there is not enough money, I will sell them."

"In a word, the people involved in this operation must be paid enough."

"It's not just theirs. In December of this year, you and Wesson will pay all the staff and employees an extra two months of salary."

"In June next year, if the territory has settled down, I will give everyone an extra three months' salary."
