Humans are terrifying predators. It is the nature of men to pursue powerful martial power, and the specific manifestation is hero worship. This world is full of crises and fierce competition. Human beings are generally much stronger and barbarous than modern people. There is simply no room for survival in the Holy Mother. It is a pity that human competitors are more barbaric and fierce. Under the guidance of the church, ordinary persons are accustomed to preserving their lives, but this cannot obliterate their blood in the bones. Therefore, the youngster worships powerhouse very much. Knight and Paladin are naturally their heroes in mind, and the followers of the heroes are the objects they look forward to.

Victor has worked hard to develop the Randal leader. He has made great achievements and fruitful results. Only the army construction is difficult. This is mainly because the refugees do not have a sense of belonging and honor, and lack trust in the leader, for fear of becoming a Randal family. The clan resists the cannon fodder of Ant-Man.

The heroic effect brought by the Swiftbird Cavalry allowed Victor to find a breakthrough. If a military parade is held, can it inspire a sense of honor among soldiers? Will it increase the people's confidence in the Randal Family? The answer is obvious. The military parade itself is to demonstrate strength, condense the soul of the army, and enhance national self-confidence. Since the military parade can be copied, can the festival of creating the Randal Family gather the hearts of the people and give the refugees a sense of belonging, so as to quickly integrate into the Randal collar?

"If Lilia didn't agree, we could recruit 100 more people!"

Faced with Nelson's complaint, Lilia immediately fought back. She said with a sneer: " hmph! Enroll 100 more people? Do you know how much gold sols cost these 600 guards each year? Their annual salary alone is as high as 4,800 gold sols, and they have to double the allowance when they are on duty. Each of them pays for food. There are six hired workers! The guards don’t need to work, nor do they usually need to fight. In addition to training, which means catching poachers, they spend 8,000 goldsore every year!"

"So much money... …" Nelson’s voice dropped by eight degrees, and Lilia had no intention of saving face for the big brother. She rolled the eyes and continued to sarcastically said: "You really treat them as mercenaries? I tell you, the armament of the guards is Provided by the hill camp, I don’t have any accounts here, but it’s not less than 60,000 Kingsore!"

"Don’t worry about armaments." Victor smiled and said, "Okay. Barry." I’d like to report on the training of the militia."

Barrett said embarrassingly: "My lord, there is no training. The militias are very busy...I can only train the newly added guards. My lord, To be honest, you have to open up a number of places to build houses to enter the households before there will be militias."

The militias are the largest and most basic armed forces under the lord’s command. They do not have any salary and do not respond to the call for war. , Is mainly responsible for protecting the Wei Family Park and the village, the lord only provides simple armaments. Refugees hired workers are impossible to defend the territory of others. Therefore, the militia must be the registered subjects of the lord. They are either the descendants of the family vassal or the children of the leading family.

Although the militia has the right to refuse the lord’s call to war, the militia of the Great Family often does not do so. The York family has a thousand years of inheritance and has 60,000 people on the books. They mobilized 20,000 militiamen in the Ant-Man War. Even if the Tusk Legion was hit hard, they could quickly select the elite from the militia to restore the battle strength of the Tusk Legion. Victor was envious of this.

The Randal Family family has a shallow background. It promotes the construction of houses and households. It barely accommodates 600 households and nearly 3,000 registered subjects. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, there are no more than a thousand young people, and 600 deacons and mercenaries are deducted. , There is no who left.

Victor was silent for a moment, and asked gloomily: "Where are the families with private plots?"

"I can train them, but I'm afraid they will run away with equipment." Barry Said very bluntly.

"That's it." Victor shook the head and asked: "Munk, how many people enter Randal every day to lead a living? What is the situation in the police station?"

Now The floating population led by Randal is under the jurisdiction of the police, and Nelson's escort is only responsible for patrolling the border and catching poachers. The monkey quickly stood up and replied, "There are almost 70 or 80 people every day, and there are many bachelors."

"There are 117 soldiers in the police station, and the security officers in each village are already in place. The sheriff of Raven Town is also on the way." The monkey nodded bowed his waist and said: "My lord, according to your instructions, I through the relationship of Wild Willow City to encourage freedmen merchants to buy houses and settle in Randal. Now 8 families have moved here. , They paid 100 goldsor for building a house, and opened 8 grocery stores, 2 hotels, and 3 pubs in Flatlake Town. These merchants also invested money in the public carriage in Wild Willow City, and they bought us all The carriage of the Randal Family."

"Good job." Victor smiled again on his face.

There are two types of house construction and household entry led by Randal, one is to absorb the residents of the house and to target the talents of the refugees, and the other is to absorb the wealth and personal connections to buy and settle in the house. Rich businessman among free people. Victor wild ambition wants to build a giant commercial armed organization. It is difficult to realize this plan only by relying on his own wealth and contacts. He must use external forces, and freelance merchants are the best partners for cooperation.

Freelance businessmen are exquisite, sophisticated and sophisticated on the surface. In fact, they have money and no status, and their ability to resist risks is extremely poor. Although freedmen and businessmen worked hard to befriend priests, it was a pity that they had nothing to do with honesty and simplicity, and would always engage in shameful deeds. The rich and powerful in towns had too many methods to infringe on the wealth of these people. If they can be mixed as a vassal, freedmen businessmen can also get a good end, but how many people are willing to spend their wealth but only exchanged for 10 acres of land?

Victor and the church held a pre-divine notarization to protect the property of the freedmen. Randal led the freedmen’s businessmen to the most ideal settlement. Their wealth will not only bring prosperity to Flatlake Town, but also their talents and network resources. Will also be used by Victor. The monkey used to hang out in Wild Willow City for a while, and he was in charge of attracting investment under Victor's order.

"But..." The monkey looked around, gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, these merchants have paid the rent and the deeds, but there is no house for them."

"What's the matter? Why don't we have a house for them? What about the credibility of our Randal Family?" Victor complexion sank, the atmosphere in the Conference Hall suddenly solidified. After a long time, Lilia finally opened the mouth and said "These days, everyone is busy harvesting crops and there is no man to build a house... Wild Willow City is also pressing hard. The blue bricks have been shipped... Wait a few days..."

" These days, you are with me every day, you know very well.” Victor interrupted Lilia's explanation angrily, said with a sneer: “Wait for a few days? Wait a few days for the credibility of our Randal Family. It's going to smell like Wild Willow City!"

Seeing that the younger sister was condemned by Victor, Nelson pointed the finger at the culprit monkey, "My lord, the monkey, use official authority for private interests!"

"Don’t think I don’t know, you have a lot of shares in the shops opened by those merchants!" Nelson yelled to the sheriff: "Also...there are those two hotels making skins and meats. Business!"

"Fuck...When did you become Saint? How did you know if you haven't been there?" Victor couldn't help but explode. Nelson touched his head and sat down hesitantly. The more rude Victor was, the happier he was.

The venue fell into a weird silence. Alina was dignified and elegant, with a trace of contempt in her eyes. Alice was smiling, tilting her head, and looking at the excitement. Lilia pouted her mouth. Feeling wronged, the village heads glared at the monkeys, but the monkeys clenched their teeth.

X-3 is running fast, Victor vaguely grasps the crux of the matter.

For the lord, the sheriff is a white glove, which can be discarded at any time if it is soiled. It is precisely because of this that the power of the sheriff is not ordinary. The monkey is not only in charge of the entry and exit permits of free people, but also in charge of the lease of shops in Flatlake Town, firefighting, and even environmental sanitation. Randal leads him to do all things that offend people. There are more than 100 subordinates of the monkey on the surface, and two forces behind it. A group of people introduce jobs to the new freedmen and act as intermediaries. The number of them is limited. Most of them are thieves and pickpockets who are good at observing words and colors. They are monkeys. To a certain extent, it can guard against spies of other families. Another group of people are pure thugs. They monopolize the cleaning and sanitation work of Flatlake Town, collect rents for shops, and of course also charge so-called "cleaning fees" to teach the thieves who harass the shops. These people are the most taboo for double-handedness. They only speak to the sheriff. They have to offend the shops opened by the village chief and the war bear mercenaries. The monkeys not only take down all their mistakes, but also support them and force these shops to pay "cleaning." "Fee", otherwise he would not be able to maintain the secret order in Flatlake Town. Fortunately, with the persistence of monkeys, free businessmen dared to open business in Flatlake Town, including the indispensable hotel business.

The monkey was accused by Nelson. On the surface, he offended too many people, but the essence is that Randal leads the new and old forces. The vassal forces represented by Nelson have not yet completed the accumulation of family wealth, they are challenged by freelance traders represented by monkeys. The Randal leader flourished, and Victor invested large sums of money in freelance laborers. The monthly wages in Zhuanyao Village alone were as high as 200 jinsore. This money can be transferred to the village chief and war bear mercenaries through the shops and taverns. Originally, they did control the store resources of Flatlake Town. Now that freelance traders are competing with them, how can they be willing? But they also don't want to think about how the commercial street in Flatlake Town was deserted before the freelance merchants joined in? Even if these hired workers are rich, they will probably go to Wild Willow City to have fun.

Victor thought for a while, probed: "I plan to send someone to teach the freedmen’s children to learn to write, what do you think?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay , Didn’t you say that the monkey is good? Isn’t it too big for your lord? Village Mayor Morin brace oneself said: "My lord, what's the use of teaching them? Maybe they ran away that day." Other village heads nodded in agreement.

Sure enough! At the beginning, these guys were elected as the village group leader because they could write and calculate. Now they are afraid of being replaced by others.

Victor slowly said: "Munk, you don’t have to participate in the roundtable in the future, you are only responsible to me!" The monkey was surprised at first, and then overjoyed. He understood that this is what fief lord does to him. support. Victor added: "Lilia, buying a house and settling down is related to my reputation. Let me put everything else down, and immediately arrange for a man to build a house for the businessman!"

"I see." Lilia docile agreed.

Nelson opened his mouth, and Victor glared at him, "What are you doing? Huh?" Nelson immediately retracted.

This rammed goods has a territory of 300 square kilometers, and there is no need to pay for a copper sol. The family is rich in oil, and I don’t know if I became a gunman.

"This is the end of today's roundtable, everyone go back to work."

Everyone bowed and retired, the Conference Hall became empty, and Victor sat alone in his seat , Lost in thought.

There is a struggle where there are people. It is normal for the members of the work-point system to make some careful thoughts and small actions for their own status. Ordinary lords just laughed at this kind of thing, weren't they all his own men at the end of the fight? Victor cannot sit back and watch. Wild mercenaries, family vassals, and freedmen merchants are his troika carriage. They are equally important and should not be lost!

In Victor’s plan, the leaders of the Randal Family will eventually replace the alchemy militia, gather mountain resources, produce rock bricks, and build giant fortresses, so as to liberate the alchemy militia and allow them to form more The mercenary group eventually formed a huge martial power group. However, Victor walked so fast that the family vassals could not keep up with him and became panic. They didn’t even realize that the freedmen merchants would not challenge their status when they saw who they bite. The refugees of the households are their competitors.

Competition is necessary, but disorderly competition is not desirable. Victor must give his men time to grow, otherwise today's deacon can eliminate the village head, and tomorrow's deacon can eliminate the new village head. It's like a monkey breaking the valley, picking one and throwing one away, and the last one may not be what it wants.

"The Randal Family has developed too fast. Some of the foundations are unstable. It will take some time to settle and accumulate, digest the existing population, and improve the administrative justice system, education and scientific research system, military system, and trade by the way. System. Well, there are also military parades and festivals. I have to think about how to do it."

Victor thought about it, and suddenly realized that he is not running a business, but a territory and a family. As a lord, he has not eaten with vassals or hunted together for a long time. Nelson and Linda have had a twin, he hasn't even been to see them.

"Well, I owe you. Before I hold a family banquet, there is still a business to discuss." Victor touched the chin, muttering to himself.
