From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 189 Hevian【4K】

Hevian is over 40 years old. As an ordinary person, he has already shown some aging at this age. Although his body is still tall and straight, there are strands of silver on his temples.

This may not only be caused by age factors, but work pressure may have a greater proportion.

Before meeting Ryan, he was just the head of a small village. After being rescued by Ryan during his escape, he proved himself in mission after mission, and finally climbed to a high position like consul in a short period of time. .

Don't think about this position before, that is, he dared not do it in his dreams. He has always been grateful for this, and has always warned himself not to let Ryan's trust down.

In the past two years or so, he has indeed done a good job in his work. Ryan often has no time to deal with government affairs. He almost handles various incidents piled up by himself, and he does it impeccably.

However, with the development of the territory, Hevian gradually felt apprehensive about being in such a high position, and he questioned himself, after all, he was just an ordinary person.

This feeling became particularly clear and strong during Ryan's expedition. In half a year, he had to go through almost all matters of the territory, and he could almost be said to be the "leader" of the Cana Territory. , I don’t know how many people are secretly fawning on him.

Moreover, the decisions he needs to make are becoming more and more influential, and often it is just one order, and the entire territory will be turned accordingly.

This is the root of his fear. The authority in this position is too heavy. He feels that he is not worthy of virtue, so in the meeting after Ryan's triumph, he proposed to reorganize the government affairs department.

He felt that a more suitable person should be replaced to wield these powers.

It's just that his own proposal has been sinking into the sea for so many days, and there is no movement at all, which makes him unable to understand Ryan's attitude for a while, so he has been a little absent-minded these days.

Sometimes he wondered if he would regret it after doing so.After all, that is a position under one person and above ten thousand people. If Ryan really adopted his opinion, would he really be able to accept it calmly?

Very contradictory, but very realistic.

Fortunately, this feeling of worrying about gains and losses is about to end, because Ryan will announce the latest adjustments to the government affairs department today.

Originally, he thought that he would be very nervous and anxious today, but when he woke up from his sleep, he unexpectedly found that his heart was very peaceful.

"No matter what the result is, I can accept it calmly." This was Hevian's first thought after waking up.

After washing up, he put on a rare gorgeous formal attire, and after a simple breakfast, he went out with the plan he made last night.

Naturally, his original home was not in Doman City, but because of the orc invasion, his village was destroyed, and his wife fell under the orc's butcher's knife. hall.

Later, Ryan still felt that it was wrong. What is it for a dignified consul to live in the unit every day?
So he arranged a single-family mansion for him in the more prosperous south of the city. This is a famous family area, where the families of the first group of soldiers who followed Ryan lived here.

The mansion is very large, but very quiet. There are only two servants responsible for daily cleaning and so on, and there is only one group of guards. It is really too clean.

Leaving aside his official position, let's just say that the high salary and rewards Ryan gave him are enough to allow him to live a luxurious life not inferior to that of a big businessman.

But he felt that this was the right thing to do. He was alone, and sometimes it was normal for him to deal with government affairs and not come back for a few days. Why did he need so many servants?
In fact, if it wasn't for Ryan's insistence, he wouldn't want the mansion or the guards.

It was just dawn outside, and the cold winter wind made him shiver slightly. He wrapped his clothes around his body, and closed the courtyard door casually.

"My lord, shall we set off now?" The guard team leader came to Hevian and asked respectfully.

Hevian glanced at the carriage in front of him, shook his head and said, "I won't take the carriage today, it's not far anyway, let's go."

The chief guard hesitated to speak, but he knew Hevian's habits, so he stood silently behind Hevian.

Hevian walked on the solid concrete road, feeling more relaxed than ever.He gets up very early every time, and it is only around six o'clock now, and there are almost no people on the street.

"My lord, why did you get up so early?"

Suddenly, a somewhat restrained voice brought back his thoughts. He looked back and saw an old man in coarse linen just opened the door and poked his head out to look at him.

I glanced at the door and found the sign of a bakery.

Although Hevian has a good reputation among the public, this is the first time someone dared to greet him on the road. He couldn't help being a little surprised, and said kindly: "It's necessary for work, aren't you also very early?"

The old man was a little surprised. He just blurted out the question just now, and never thought that Hevian would answer him. After all, he was a very big official.

For a while, he didn't know how to reply.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Hevian nodded and left with his guards.

"Master Hevian is really as frugal as the rumors say, and he actually walked to the government affairs hall." Looking at the leaving back, the old man shook his head and muttered.

He couldn't understand, if the official is living the same life as a commoner, why bother to be an official?
……

Walking to the government affairs hall, Hevian was the first to arrive without any dispute, opened the door and walked in, and plunged into the government affairs again.

As the sky became brighter and brighter, the government affairs hall finally became lively and busy, but judging from the fact that everyone was working harder than usual, it was obvious that there were some other purposes in it.

Ryan set the time for the meeting at noon, and the heads of the entire ruling department gathered in the conference room, waiting for Ryan to arrange for them.

Ryan, who was sitting at the top, took a look around and took a panoramic view of the performance of the people present, not letting go of even the slightest expression. In general, only a few people were calm, and the rest were more or less calm. A different mood.

"The latest arrangement is here, you can read it." Ryan handed the document in his hand to Hevian, who was next.

Hevian was stunned for a moment, then stood up and took it respectfully. When he turned the first page, his name was not on the first row. He felt a little unclear for a while, but he still raised his spirits and said:

"With regard to the Executive Office, the following adjustments are made:

The Administrative Office was renamed as the Administrative Office, and the original subordinate departments were unified and adjusted, and are now divided into the following parts:

Finance Department, Logistics Support Department, Agriculture Department, Education Department, Supervision Department...

The Minister of Finance is Mr. Fitrol.

The Minister of Logistics Support is Mr. Canon.

The Secretary of Agriculture is Mr Kewell.

The Minister of Education is Mr. Wedwin.

The inspector general is Mr Sivis.

The warden is Mr. Jack.

The Minister of Propaganda is Mr. Vanner.

……

The chief administrative officer...is Hevian Anweis, who also serves as the Minister of Construction? "

Hevian raised his head in surprise. He didn't expect Ryan to put the candidate for the consul at the end, and he was still in charge. He also added a new title of Minister of Construction to him.

Ryan gave him a positive look, which gradually calmed down his nervous heart.

This time the adjustment was huge, many officials were dismissed, and many strangers were recruited. The biggest impact was the addition of several new departments, such as the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Education, etc., and the heads of these departments were all unfamiliar.

"My lord, what are the jobs of these newly added departments?" After looking at each other several times, Hevian stood up and said.

Ryan tapped the table lightly and said: "It literally means that the Ministry of Agriculture will be in charge of agriculture-related parts from now on, such as cultivated land statistics, cattle distribution, crop production increase and so on.

Ladies and gentlemen, although the current annual grain production is very impressive, it is really difficult to describe the management in this area. The role of the Ministry of Agriculture is to re-plan these.

The Ministry of Education will be in charge of education-related parts. I plan to popularize education in the days to come, starting with school-age children and teenagers in the territory, and then adults.I will post the detailed plan after the meeting.

The Ministry of Supervision will focus on the corruption of officials. Ladies and gentlemen, the salary I offer you is not low. I hope you can restrain your desire to grow and stop stretching your hands beyond the limit. "

Ryan's sharp eyes swept over everyone, and most of them felt a sense of being seen through, and quickly lowered their heads. This is Ryan's magic spell on them!

Seeing some silence, Hevian coughed dryly and said, "The Ministry of Construction?"

"The Ministry of Construction coordinates the construction of roads, city walls, houses, canals, etc. The current construction teams will all be assigned to the Ministry of Construction. In recent years, the tasks of the Ministry of Construction will be heavy.

At present, there is a large amount of cement in storage, and various building materials are piled up like a mountain. The financial aspect is also relatively ample, and the manpower is also sufficient.

So I decided to start building a new city as the new center of the territory. " Ryan said in a flat tone.

Although the investment in building a new city is huge, it has little impact on everyone. It is not as great as the establishment of the Ministry of Supervision, so everyone has no reaction.

Only Hevian frowned and said, "Building a new city is no small matter. Do you have a complete plan?"

Ryan nodded and said: "I will give you the blueprint of the new city after the meeting, so you don't have to worry about it."

After the meeting, several families were happy and others were sad. Ryan left Hevian and Wei Dewen alone. He looked at Hevian and said, "You may have to work harder during this time."

Hevian thought he was talking about building a new city, so he couldn't help saying: "I will definitely go all out for the construction of the new city."

Unexpectedly, Ryan waved his hand and said: "I'm not talking about this, I want you to conduct a comprehensive census of the territory's population in the next time, which not only counts the names of the people but also the date of birth, place of origin, Occupation, etc., and register.

Every citizen must issue a special paper 'identity certificate' to prove their identity. The non-territorial resident population is not counted, but a 'passport' will also be issued after verification of identity. "

Hevian's eyes widened in surprise, boy, this is really a big move.

"My lord, the current population of the territory is more than [-]. It's a bit difficult to complete this." Hevian is a little embarrassed. At present, there are still rare talents who can read and write, and completing these literacy is just the foundation.

Ryan showed a smile, looked at Wei Dewen aside and said: "I know what difficulties you are facing.

At present, the students in the school headed by Mr. Wei Dewen have been studying for two years. Although they have not yet reached my ideal standard, there is no problem with reading and writing.

I discussed it with Mr. Wei Dewen. During this period of time, students of the right age in this group will graduate early and be assigned to places that need them. The government affairs department will take the majority. These are the future of the development of the territory. I hope you Take good care of them, and don't be affected by some unhealthy tendencies. "

----

When Ryan said this, the school reached the age of 14, and the students who entered the intermediate class and above also ushered in their graduation exams.

This exam is a bit special, what everyone gets is not the same paper as usual, but a questionnaire, and this questionnaire will determine where they will go after graduation.

There were originally more than 100 students in the school, and the second enrollment in the spring of this year has now reached nearly 300 students. However, due to the education level, the first-time graduates are second-year students, and they must be over 14 years old.

14 years old is a more appropriate age. From the perspective of Ryan's previous life, this age is just a child acting like a baby in the arms of his parents, but in this world, he is already the main labor force.

A total of 52 students graduated from the first batch, which accounted for nearly half of the second-year students. Since most of them were in their teens when they entered school, age was more suitable.

Some of them will be assigned to two laboratories as apprentices, some will be assigned to Turner as assistants, and a few will inherit their father's career and enter the army for training.

But more of them have entered the government affairs department and cooperated with various departments as assistants, most of which are the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Education, and the census that Hevian will conduct.

There are more than fifty people, and the distribution is a drop in the bucket, so Ryan had to change the teaching plan, and in the future, students of the right age will be recruited into various departments every year.

Fortunately, education is about to be popularized, and now the only difference is time...

However, there was one exception among this group of graduates, and that was Susan, who was only ten years old.

Susan has been exposed to education earlier than these students, and she is very hardworking and smart. In fact, she has already learned almost the same when she first entered school, but Ryan saw that she was too young, so she was arranged to learn some other knowledge in the school.

But Susan's learning talent is really outstanding, and she has already scoured the ink in Wei Dewen's stomach, so Ryan simply let her graduate early.

Her assignment direction is Liman's laboratory...
