In the Middle Ages, people drew cards to be promoted to nobility.

In the city of Jerusalem.

There was a long and dense queue outside Lothar's printing workshop.

There were so many people, and under the guard of the soldiers with helmets and armor, no matter how unruly they were, they had to line up honestly.

Some pilgrims who had just arrived at the Holy Land and didn't know what was going on came forward with some confusion: What are you doing?

There is a public notice board outside the workshop, written in various languages.

But most people still don't recognize it.

After finally asking, the pilgrim was immediately shocked and said: In the first three years, I only paid 20% of the tax, and also rented farm tools and distributed farmland for free. How can such a good thing come from?

Don't make a fuss. Count Lothar is famous for his generosity and kindness throughout the Holy Land. Haven't you heard of his reputation?

Ah, is that the guardian of the Holy Land, the great knight who defeated Saladin?

Yes, it's him!

Lothar's reputation has already spread throughout the Christian world along with passing merchant ships.

My Lord Count is so generous, will he go bankrupt because of this?

Some pilgrims looked worried.

When Fringilla heard the conversation here, she couldn't help but smile and said: What a simple person. He is actually worried that the Lord will go bankrupt.

Their concerns are valid.

Chelinina said expressionlessly: According to calculations, the initial investment in resettling the residents is indeed very large. Almost all of these people are impoverished and need us to provide crop seeds, rented farm tools, and free relief grains. All kinds of daily necessities inside.”

According to my estimation, the territory will have a net loss of three thousand Suledes gold coins in the first month. This does not include the fluctuations in food prices, losses in food transportation, livestock rations, provision of infrastructure materials, and expenditures on building public water canals. .

so much!

Fringilla's eyes gradually became dangerous as she looked at the people lining up.

If you, sir, are willing to spend all the money you spend on placing these people on upgrading me, I can unlock the 'Blood Pool Transformation'.

Blood pool transformation is a special skill that can only be used by her at the elite level. Her whole body turns into a blood pool. As long as the blood pool does not dry up, she is almost invincible. This can greatly make up for her relatively weak vitality as a warlock.

When she reached the first level of refinement, she, Fringilla, could show her true strength as a top five-star.

Snap.

The lid of the iron box popped up.

A chocolate bar in your mouth.

Fringilla's frown quickly relaxed, the danger in her eyes disappeared, she squinted and enjoyed the sweet taste in her mouth.

Cellinina took out another one and was about to put it in her mouth.

Then he met Fringilla's pitiful eyes.

Nina, I want to eat this peach flavor, but I haven't had it for several days.

In Cellinina's cookie box, the chocolate bars that can be taken out are randomly selected for each flavor.

Here, here you go.

Nina, you're so kind.

Fringilla was as happy as a sixteen-year-old girl.

Stand across the street.

Lothar couldn't help laughing and said: Chelinina really dotes on Fulin.

Prajna frowned: You already dote on her very much. Only you two would treat her like a child.

Okay, let's go meet them.

Lothar and Prajna came to the two of them.

Miss Cellinina.

Chelinina was a little surprised, took a step back, bowed and said: Sir, congratulations on getting what you wanted.

Well, thank you.

Lothar paused slightly and asked, I just saw these people receiving their number plates and waiting in the yard. Are they going to be centralized?

Well, otherwise I'm worried that the number plates they queued up to receive will be taken away.

You are very careful in this regard. From what angle do you screen applicants?

Go by your gut.

Lothar thought thoughtfully: Oh yes, beast intuition, right? That's really useful.

Although Beast Instinct does not appear on Cellinina's panel, this is the same reason why Sword Mastery does not appear on her panel.

Hans is a parallel import five-star, incomparable to Cellinina.

But you still overlooked one issue. Since registration is based on households, many pilgrims will temporarily form families with other pilgrims because they can't get in line, and there may be cases of false reports of relationships.

This is likely to lead to the emergence of large families with more than a dozen or even dozens of people, and some people may take this opportunity to make profits.

There is no shortage of scalpers in any era.

Cellinina frowned: I will register the family size of each pilgrim in advance.

But this does not prevent someone from making a false report - remember to investigate this kind of thing strictly, we can't accommodate so many people.

If Lothar's prediction comes true, the number of territorial residents who really need to be resettled may increase several times.

Not only would this drain his wallet, he wouldn't have enough land to house these people.

You can't just throw them into the desert to graze, right?

Chelinina felt a little ashamed and said, I'm sorry, sir, this is my dereliction of duty.

Lothar comforted: You can think of these, it's already very good.

How many people have been recruited so far?

Twenty-six hundred and ten households, based on their registered family status, totaling 5,900 people.

The number is enough. Don't recruit any more people after today. Our capacity is limited and it is impossible to accommodate everyone. If they are left here, the church will accommodate them.

I see.

Have you made plans for the subsequent resettlement of the residents?

Well, the remaining land in New Habsburg can accommodate 600 households. I plan to spread out the rest on the vacant land in Hebron, Alandre, and Filhorn.

She paused slightly and added: Sir, do you want me to arrange them dispersedly, or do you want me to arrange them centrally according to regions?

Let them be placed together. If they unite according to the township party, it will be a good thing for me.

Lothar was not worried that these people would form a group to resist him. On the contrary, the situation of the land he allocated required these people to form a group to build villages, carry out various public constructions, and protect themselves.

One more thing, we should pay attention to the epidemic problem. If someone shows symptoms, they should be isolated in time and let the monks of the Order of Saint Lazarus come to treat them.

The smooth recruitment of citizens has a lot to do with the propaganda of the Order of Saint Lazarus.

Now, Uldin is busy almost every day. In the eyes of the common people at the bottom, the simply dressed monks of the Saint Lazarus Order are simply angels.

In contrast, many clergymen do not like them very much.

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves.

Jeanne wore a silver-white helmet, followed by more than ten winged cavalry, galloping over.

grown ups.

She bowed seriously and said to Cellinina: Miss Cellinina, where is my man?

over there.

Then I'll take it away.

As if she was dissatisfied with Lothar's arrangements for her, Jeanne took off her helmet, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and brushed the long blond hair stuck to her face behind her ears.

Next time you play with knee pillows, remember to close the door, so that no one will be running around in the hot sun trying to get a glass of ice-cold wine and worry about ruining someone's good deeds.

After she finished speaking, she led the hussars and galloped away without looking back.

Fringilla looked at Lothar with some suspicion: What is Jeanne talking about?

Lothar coughed slightly, feeling a little guilty.

I obviously don't remember Jeanna coming back secretly. Could it be that it happened when I was in a daze and about to fall asleep?

Anyway, I'll leave the affairs here to you for the time being. Fulin, you can follow Miss Chelinina for the time being. Pandao and I will return to Hebron first.

Ah, why?

Fringilla felt a little aggrieved.

Don't worry, we are not just going for fun. Not only Hebron, we also have to go to New Habsburg later. We will try to activate the two new military camps by tomorrow.

Lothar plans to place the heavily armored archer barracks next to the stables outside Hebron. It is also a system-produced building that can increase the probability of horse breeding, comfort, and reduce the probability of illness.

Once this precious animal becomes sick, it is likely to infect the entire population. This has happened to many Egyptian horse farms trying to breed native horse breeds. Therefore, war horses can only be purchased from Tianzhu at high prices.

But this cost is huge. In shipping, at least a quarter of the precious horses will be lost.
