Farming Lord of Crossing

Chapter 161 160. Guessing and Arranging

Sending off Archbishop Desman and returning to the living room, Ross sat in the seat where he was sitting just now, rubbing his brows and asked, "How do you feel?" In the seat next to him sat Blu, Willie, Thomas, Oliwen, Dennis, Didara and others.

"To be honest, I really don't understand what he's here for. He can't really be tasting wine, can he?" Thomas said distressedly, rubbing his needle-like beard.

Bulu was also puzzled by the second monk, and shook his head with a wry smile: "I think it's better to deal with that 'why are you targeting me' priest Jennifer. As for the archbishop, I can't see what his purpose is at all? "

The tall and strong Dennis spoke cautiously: "I just saw the knights who came in have been quietly observing the layout and defense of the fortress town." The original head of the Baron Knights, the head of the Blood Flame Adventure Group, has been silent a lot recently.

Oliwen opened his mouth and didn't speak, because he had no idea what to say, so he might as well not say anything.

On the contrary, Willy, who is mature and sophisticated, said with a smile: "If I say that he just came to see the lord, do you believe it or not?"

Everyone turned their heads to stare at Scholar Willy. All the people present here were mature people. They had their own thoughts after hearing what Scholar Willy said, but they still stared at Scholar Willy, waiting for him to explain the reason.

"I think you are all affected by the archbishop's ostentation, temperament, and wealth." Willie didn't want to rely on the old to show off his appetite, he said with a smile, "Actually, any noble with a long heritage and rich heritage is very particular about ostentation. You need to pay attention to everything from large vehicles, mounts, and attendants to small buttons on clothes and a pattern on flags.

The temple is the power with the longest inheritance and the deepest heritage, and it is also the one that pays the most attention to form and etiquette.They can even go as far as to know how many priests and knights a bishop can take with him, how big a vehicle he can take, what kind of flags and patterns he can decorate, and so on. "

Bruce, Thomas, and Oliwen suddenly widened their eyes and looked at Willy in disbelief.

Dennis and others who have seen it many times have a look of hope and yearning, as if nobles should be like this.

Ross covered his cheeks with his hands, and moaned silently: "Hey, it's another set of 'red tape' that can't be avoided by the powerful and rich." Immediately, Ross waved his hand to signal Willy to continue. .

Willie took a sip of water, changed his comfortable posture and continued: "So, Archbishop Desman just used the most normal etiquette to formally visit the local host.

There are only two purposes, one is to tell the lord: I am here, and I will stay here for a long time, please take care of me.

The second and most important purpose is to see what kind of person the lord is, so that he can take countermeasures when dealing with him in the future.

Of course, whether this countermeasure is good or bad for the lord depends on his relationship with the lord. "

Thomas and the rough men suddenly realized that they admired Willy very much. Bruce also admired Willy, but he thought in his heart that he would ask Willy's scholars to see if he could recommend books on this topic for him to study.

At the same time, I also thought that Ross is also a baron now. As a nobleman himself, the political officer should buy a full set of outfits for Ross in accordance with the standards of a baron, and he must not let his lord lose the limelight and lose face in front of other nobles.

Ross nodded to Willy in satisfaction, ignored Willy's reserved and smug smile, and said, "Some things are inconvenient to say, but you should all know the attitude of the territory towards them. I can tell you clearly that we will treat them in the future. They still have the same attitude, even more serious.

Therefore, everyone should be able to understand how the relationship between the two of us is, and how they responded to us. "

At this time, Bruce remembered what had happened in the territory in the past two days, and hurriedly said: "My lord, in the past few days, many villages and towns have reported that someone is spreading the news that a large group of orcs will capture the village and town among the people. They are all panicked.

Could it be~~~"

"Have you made a move yet?" Ross tapped his brow with his index finger, smiled helplessly, looked at Bruce and asked, "How are you going to deal with it?"

Bruce sat up straight, and said seriously: "No matter what the purpose of these people is, spreading messages to create panic is absolutely intolerable. I think the blue iron mine just built can cool down their crazy minds!"

Ross nodded, looked at Bruce and said, "Don't worry, there won't be any big problems with us. And there needs to be a little distinction here.

All the refugees who spread the rumors were sent to the mines to be reformed. All the locals and freedmen were sent to the newly planned pastures to be managed by Haili. If the relatives of the guards participated in the rumors, they were sent to the fortress village. "

Willie explained with a smile: "Now that the Lord Lord's territory construction is becoming more and more perfect, many things cannot be generalized. Instead, they must be treated differently at different levels, stages, and classes, so that everyone can feel the existence of order. Can be more obedient to the arrangement and disposal of the lord."

Thomas and Oliwen nodded half-understood, Bruce stood up and saluted Willy earnestly and said, "Mr. Willy, please teach me!"

The old man hastily backed away a little, he didn't dare to accept the gift from the young man in front of him, not only because he was the only political officer appointed by the lord, but also because of the young man's terrifying learning ability and super high logic In terms of analytical ability, I am better than him only because I have rich experience and read a little more books.

Willie said with a smile: "Where is it, I happen to have a few books on this topic here. We can study and discuss it together when we have time."

Bruce didn't insist, Shi Wanli nodded and sat down.

Ross went on to say: "Since the archbishop has made a move, it may be more than simply spreading rumors. And we can't be passively beaten, we should do something."

Didara hesitated for a moment and said: "Maybe we can start from the ideological aspect. You also know that accepting different knowledge and information can make people have different thoughts. Instead of letting ignorant people randomly accept those 'harmful knowledge and information' ’, how about we proactively send them something we want them to know.”

Ross glanced at the old mage in surprise. As expected of a college teacher, he knows how to use knowledge to change minds and public opinion to control minds, but this is not so easy, especially in this period when talents are scarce.

So Ross knocked on the table and said: "Master Didara is right. But this method is not suitable for the present. You also know that there are not many literate people in the territory now, let alone ordinary citizens. universal education."

"Popular education?" Didara was stunned, and after careful consideration, he said, "My lord, what I mean is that we can find some people to vigorously publicize some things we want the people to know, so as to guide the people thoughts~~~”

"Uh~" Ross rubbed his nose, and said with a little embarrassment: "I understand, the mainstream of public opinion and the thoughts of the people must be in our hands.

In this way, Willy scholars, you should sort out the history of the development of Stan Village into the Stan Land as soon as possible, and select more than a dozen stories that promote the food production of the territory, the benevolence and greatness of the lord, and the strength of the army, and adapt it into a song that ordinary people love to watch. story.

Blue is in charge of arranging people to sing these stories in the territory and several nearby villages, towns and cities.At the same time, find more things for the local people to do during the slack season, such as repairing canals, building roads, composting, etc. In short, don't let them idle.

In addition, Willy found me a copy of the "Rules of the Knights". After I formulate the "Rules of Stan's Leading Army" according to this, you, Thomas, arrange for everyone to study and require everyone to memorize and recite the rules.

The military must have only one voice. "
