Medieval Reiki Revival

Chapter 47
It's a pity that I couldn't figure out the purpose of the Bandit Gang that day, but Ivan also knew the connection between the tax officer Don Serra and Carmen Sita. I don't know what Carmen said to this guy. own trouble.

"Master Ivan, here is today's newspaper."

The Luzburg newspaper for March came out, and Miss Molly bought it and put it in his office.

Ivan glanced at it, it was all bullshit.

According to the mayor's wishes, Lord Dorian described the happy life of the city in newspapers.

According to the literal meaning of the newspapers and periodicals, everyone has a job, eats and drinks well, children play and do nothing every day, clergy have firm beliefs and are willing to give alms, and government personnel are loyal to their duties and enjoy themselves with the people.

In effect, the city councilor decided to pass the king's tax on to the people.

For this reason, Fort Luz Pitt added two more taxes.One is the stove tax, but anyone who has a cooking stove in the house needs to pay 100 coppers to the government; the other is the firewood tax, and people who use or buy firewood need to pay the magistrate at the price of 10 coppers per pound.

Hearing the news, many residents dismantled their pots and stoves overnight.

They have no tools for cooking, so they can only eat raw meat and lettuce.

Most people pin their hopes on the shops in the city that can provide food, and the bakery can only suspend business because they cannot afford firewood.On the whim of some bakers, they wrapped the dough and threw it into the coals, so that although it tasted bad, it was better than eating it raw.

The hospital is being repaired.

The Dowling family did not want to pay, but also wanted a subsidy from the city council.

Sir Dorian discussed with his allies, and decided to let the Temple of the Holy Relic let go and make a sum of money.

Bishop Claude was immediately elated when he heard the news, and had a detailed discussion with the pastor all night. After discussing it, they decided to engage in traditional arts and earn some pension money for themselves.

And so the Almighty Indulgences were born.

The Almighty Indulgence can absolve all sins—even murder, arson, rape and robbery.

Compared with the previous half-length indulgences, which can only atone for theft, dirty thoughts, and witch-obsessed people, the functionality of the omnipotent indulgences has been greatly enhanced.

The residents of Fort Luz Pitt lived in dire straits.

Ivan also watched as his hospital gradually took shape while waiting.

One more thing must be said.

It was Don Serra.

This reckless and politically ignorant tax official, because his heart was full of jealousy towards Ivan, secretly withheld the goods of the Dorian family, which made Ivan's father furious.

We were originally from the same country.

It's fine if you make a mistake and get close to the enemy.

And now you're going to be my enemy.

"This guy must be dealt with."

With a big wave of his hand, Baron Dorian directly proposed a motion of no confidence in the current tax official in the city council.

The mayor and others also agreed to remove the tax collector for the sake of the Luzburg newspaper. Unexpectedly, this wrong decision made the enemies of the Dowling family feel the crisis.

The middle and small nobles were terrified by his ruthless behavior.

They felt that if Baron Dorian continued to cover the sky with one hand in the city, it would most likely endanger their own survival.

Baron Robespierre seized the opportunity to unite with some neutral nobles, and took advantage of the loss of credibility of Baron Dorian's newspaper, and also set up two newspapers.

The political forces in Luz-Pitterburg once again returned to a state of balance and confrontation.

In addition to Ivan's hospital program, other medical institutions in Luzpittburg are also developing.

the second week of the month.

According to the statement of the Tiangong Mujue Mystery Institute, March is the day when Pisces and Aries guard each other. These two constellations are very special, one belongs to the heavenly palace, the other belongs to the underground palace, one contains the attribute of water, and the other contains the attribute of fire.

The fortune teller said that as long as anyone holds a ceremony of changing the first quarter moon at a suitable time from the second week to the third week, he can use the magic power of the moon god to change his destiny and eliminate all disasters in his life. .

It seems quite mysterious.

The divination man wearing a silk scarf flickers with smoke every day.

There are really a dozen people who believe it.

In this era, divination and medical treatment are considered low luxuries. When the economic capacity gradually declines, the residents' desire for wealth will increase, and the poor life will also change the spiritual cognitive conditions, making them willing to give it a go.

"It's worth it if it really brings good luck."

The idea is roughly the same.

Ivan didn't know if March belonged to Pisces, but this month might actually belong to Water.Probably because of the influence of warm and humid air from the south, the sky has always been cloudy and rainy.

By the time the clinic was about to move, the rain started to fall non-stop.

"This is the last shipment."

Ivan was afraid that his voice would be covered by the rain, so he purposely made it louder.

There was a bang, and there was thunder outside.

Little Henry was wearing a cloak, and there was an extra white light on his face.

Ivan continued: "The first building of Beauxbaton Hospital has been built, you know its location, starting from here, crossing the old mass graves, and then walking along the small river, there are not many miles in total. road."

"Don't worry, Master Ivan."

Little Henry has been there several times.

He patted his chest: "I promise to send the things to Beauxbaton Hospital smoothly."

"This is the last thing."

"Anything else to bring?"

"I have already told you what should be said. I put the most important things on this last carriage. Remember not to stop halfway, so as to avoid trouble."

Ivan wiped the water droplets on his forehead, he felt that he was indeed too cautious.

Both the carriage and little Henry have been there several times.

What could be wrong.

Ivan turned around and got into another carriage: "I have to go to Tilt Street. There was a worker who just quit because one foot was hit by a heavy object, and even connected with other people. Ask for a raise."

"I have to go and show that worker that he should value his job."

"Otherwise, if other workers are clamoring for an increase in their wages, other projects in the hospital will inevitably be delayed. Forlanster's recent economic situation seems to be not very good, and there are fewer wealthy businessmen who come to treat patients. I don't think so. Let's hope this little incident affects the construction of Beauxbatons Hospital."

The worker's salary increase request is worth considering, because not only Ivan's family needs it, the bell tower of the church is also being organized and built, and there is no shortage of places for hard workers.

What's more, Beauxbaton is located in the southeast.

The location is far away.

Bad weather.

Giving workers a little more money doesn't seem like a big deal either.

But the key point is that the Ivan clinic has received fewer and fewer patients recently—especially rich patients. He can't expect the local poor to bring him good wealth, but the influence of the clinic in several nearby cities Power has been exhausted.

Patients who can afford to pay have already come.

The rest are afraid of the downward economic situation and dare not treat them.

So clinic revenues are also down.

As the only extraordinary in the world, Ivan must make plans for the future.

Make sure it can develop properly under your own nose.

The Beauxbaton Hospital is the best way to expand its influence and provide convenience for experiments.A more favorable condition is that Ivan himself cannot resist the power of muskets and artillery, so it would be great to be able to form his own forces through this.

Boom boom boom!
Little Henry was startled by the dense thunder

The entire sky was filled with thunder-like noises, which made people's ears numb. The zigzag lightning flashed into the sky from time to time and hit the mountain peak.The rain was so dense that it suddenly looked like morning fog.

Before Ivan's carriage left, the rain suddenly fell heavily.

Little Henry waved at him, then pulled the cloak and the coachman into another car.
