Chapter 1499: Promotion, Control
Serwinen is a modest resident of Mutsu Town, only 16 years old and apprenticed in a furniture store. Because there were too many children in the family, Serwinen was sent out very early. The apprentices work hard and don't have a fixed salary, except that occasionally the shopkeeper is in a good mood and gives them a few red envelopes during the holidays.
Se Weenen was not the only apprentice, in addition to him, the shopkeeper had another apprentice, the nephew of the shopkeeper. Although Servenine has always been very diligent, this diligence still can't surpass that bit of blood relationship, Servenine is still the lowest level of existence in this small shop, and anyone can call him around.
Se Weining is very smart, if he is not smart he can't be an apprentice, in the town, although the apprentice status is low, but it is a very lucky thing to have a craft that can make a living, this opportunity, Se Weining's poor and unvalued family can not give him. At the age of eight he began to think about his future, and it took him two years to gain the affection of the furniture shopkeeper and furniture maker, and he took him as an apprentice.
In the last few years, things have not been doing well, and Seveinen senses the crisis, and he begins to try to express himself, and begins to try to steal some furniture-making skills that his master has been refusing to give him. Ever since the last time he was bumped into by his master's nephew that he was stealing from school, Se Vineen had sensed that there was already some suspicion in his master's eyes when he looked at him.
Seveinen was cutting wood at the moment, and in his distraught state, he inadvertently cut his hand. Se Weining stopped his movements, intending to clean his wounds, when there was a sound of footsteps at the door of the shop, and he looked up to see that it was Uncle Anck, who had ordered a set of furniture in the store the other day.
"Se Velin is still working so hard!" Uncle Angke said with a smile.
Se Weining hurriedly went to bring a glass of water to Uncle Anke: "Uncle Anke, that set of furniture has been ready, and the master is waiting for you to accept it." ”
"How can I not trust your master's craftsmanship!"
As for these two sentences, Covent, the master shopkeeper of Serwining, who had been in the backyard, probably heard the movement and had already walked over. To the old Gu Anke, Kovent gave a big hug and said with a smile: "Of course, my Kovent craftsmanship is the strongest in the entire Muchino. ”
Sevenine did not dare to wash the wound, and he continued to dig the piece of wood.
Covent and Onk began to talk.
"Covent, have you heard lately that our city lord is recruiting officials? You're one of the few people in our town who can read and write, why don't you try it? ”
"I'm so old, how can I do those things, let's stay in my store for the rest of my life! But that son of yours, I heard that the mayor has recommended him? ”
"Haha, yes, but I don't know if I can get a job, I heard that there are a lot of people competing, and I also spent a lot of money to get the mayor to push it up, and that old guy is getting more and more greedy."
"I heard that you can also go there at your own expense this time? We're not far from Freljord, and if we go by ourselves, it won't cost much, just prepare a few pieces of brown bread. ”
"How can you! Saying that, if you don't have a personal recommendation, any beggar can go, so isn't there no rules? ”
"That's right, by the way, Angke, have you heard about the Locke Magic Crystal Mine?"
"The whole Freljord has spread, how did I not know? But that's not something we can control, don't you see that even the city lord doesn't care about the matter of the magic crystal mine? ”
"This new city lord is not bad, all the seeds sown this year are free, how have we ever encountered such a thing before?"
"I feel like the city lord is going to do a big job, but I don't know if I can succeed."
The sound of the conversation between the two reached Serwinen's ears, and when he heard something, Serwinen's eyes lit up, and at the same time he accidentally made a cut on his hand, but his attention was not at all on the small opening. The lord of the castle is recruiting officials? He also learned to read and write from his master, so does he also have a chance?
####################################################
Five days after the spring planting, the villages of Freeljod were suddenly notified that their new lord intended to train new realm administrators, and that each town must send more than ten of its lords to Freljord, regardless of gender, regardless of age, and that the city lord would provide the passage expenses.
As soon as this news came out, some people who had hopes for the future and for themselves began to move. Because of the national conditions, the mayors of each town have real power, and they can be regarded as a small soil emperor, so there are few people who want to leave the town and come to Freljord, but they can't resist that there are other residents in the town. And for some administrative personnel in the town who have not been able to climb up for many years, it is better to come out and give it a go than to be a low-level official in the town for a lifetime, at least there is some hope.
The new lord was unfamiliar to the people of Freljord, but they undoubtedly had a glimmer of hope for him. Not every city lord will give out free seeds to all the farmers in the territory when he takes office, which is a small measure, but it is easy to win the favor of the tenants at the bottom of the territory, and some officials can easily see that the city lord attaches great importance to the development of the territory.
There are a dozen small towns in Freljord, and some of them have a few small villages under them, and ten places are definitely not much. There are a lot of relatives under the mayors and officials of various towns, and if any of them begged, it would not be good not to give face. It is said that it should be given to those who have real talents, but the education situation in this place is really not very good, and it is good to have a literate among the commoners. Even if some mayors want to give a few places to ordinary people, their level of education determines that there are very few outstanding talents among them. So the current situation is that most of the children of the officials of the various towns in the territory will be elected.
Liu Yu was not surprised by this result. With all kinds of brainwashing methods, he has long planned to incorporate these local "big households" into his own system in the process of "training", Liu Yu doesn't like the appearance of "princes" in his sphere of influence! He wants to use the connections of those "soil emperors" to truly control the entire territory!
However, Liu Yu also understood that although the people recommended by the mayor were useful, they were not necessarily talented, so he mentioned later that he could come at his own expense, and he would return the travel expenses when the time came. Now that time is pressing, it is impossible for Liu Yu to find them one by one, and it is difficult to have time to promote the imperial examination system of the Daliang Dynasty, so he can only choose to imitate the more ancient filial piety and use the method of recommendation to recruit talents.
The town is near and far, and it can be reached in one day, but it takes five or six days to reach the far, and it also takes time to discuss the promotion, so these people come one after another, and it takes half a month. This also has some advantages, that is, Liu Yu can have more time to prepare, and can meet all the people who come for assessment training.
During dinner in the evening, Se Weining was slapped several times by his master, and he knew that it was difficult for him to stay here any longer. In the evening, Se Vineen secretly inspected all his possessions, a silver coin that he had stumbled upon, and dozens of copper coins that had been accumulated for many years, two sets of shabby clothes, and a pair of cloth shoes that had exposed his toes. He remembered Uncle Anke's words, a beggar would definitely not be able to be chosen, and looking at the silver coin that he had polished very brightly, Sevining made a choice.
Se Villen took a few pieces of black bread left over from the kitchen for the evening, brought a jug of clean water, packed up all his possessions and secretly left the small shop where he had lived for six years. Mutsu was two days away from Freljord, passing through a small town halfway through, where Sevenine spent the silver coin and put on clean clothes, trying to look like a teenager from a good family.
When he arrived at the Freljord administrative center, Se Vineen explained his intentions, and he was ushered into a hall, where he saw six or seven men, whose clothes had cost him all his possessions, were still very simple compared to them. Sensing the gazes of the others, Sewinen was apprehensive, but he was careful not to let himself show unease. After a while, several handsomely dressed guards entered, and several well-dressed men walked into the hall behind them.
Se Weining's eyes were attracted by the young man at the head, who lived by observing words and emotions all the year round, so he naturally had some vision. He could see that the young man, who was no more than twenty-three years old, was obviously dressed in the best clothes, and there was a noble smell all over his body, and those people were obviously his subordinates. Sevein remembered the rumors he had heard about the city lord, who seemed to be about his age.
"Lord Castle, these are the people who arrived today." A lean but energetic middle-aged man said.
The young man looked around, then sat down at the front, "Come up to me one by one, and I will ask you some questions to determine your future. ”
Sure enough, it was the city lord, and Se Weining didn't have time to be surprised and nervous before he heard this sentence - his future.
Liu Yu, who purged the officialdom of Freljord, is also going crazy now, and he doesn't have time to get to know everyone, but fortunately, he has the power to move people's hearts. He doesn't have many requirements for his future subordinates, as long as he doesn't want to be too greedy, has too many dirty things in his heart, and has too much desire, he will give these people a chance. After all, Freljord's territory is not too big, and he can handle many things personally, all he lacks is the "errands" who can faithfully complete the task!
Although Liu Yu can create countless outstanding talents through the Infinite Reality Stone and the Infinite Power Stone, it is absolutely best for him to use the "native" to govern the territory. When he created Naruto before, he had already faintly sensed Tendo's suppression of him, and when he used the robot later, he clearly sensed Tendo's dissatisfaction. Therefore, Liu Yu will not use unnatural forces anymore, at least until there is no urgent need, he does not want to use any more means that do not conform to the rules of this world!

While Liu Yu was training the new officials, Shivana was sent out along with Kakashi, one of the Naruto's Seven Great Shinobi, to the headquarters of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce to weaken, infiltrate, and control the Shurima Chamber of Commerce. The strength of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce is not strong, and with the strength of Shivana and Kakashi, it is fully capable of control.
The Shurima Chamber of Commerce had already announced the news of Freljord's Magic Crystal Mine, but they were sophisticated, and they didn't let people see that it was they who released the news. During this time, someone had already gone to the Magic Crystal Mine to check on the situation, and soon after the news spread that the Magic Crystal Mine had been abandoned.
Magic Crystal Ore is valuable, but abandoned Magic Crystal Ore is of limited value. Some speculators also came and found one or two deliberately left magic crystals, but the value of these magic crystals was too small, and after attracting some adventurers, only some lucky people would go. Liu Yu was already ready, and after a while, after the magic crystal mine was no longer valuable in the eyes of others, he made a collapse accident and directly "destroyed" the magic crystal mine.
The Shurima Chamber of Commerce is located in the Noxus border city of Deretri, which is adjacent to Freeljord. As an excellent mercenary, Shivana took Kakashi around the underground black market in the city, and after spending some money to buy a map of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, the two stepped on the Shurima Chamber of Commerce. The main job was done by Kakashi, who was more agile, while Shivana wasn't good at this kind of covert work.
The next day, Shivana sent a false message that some of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce fighters had left, and at the same time, she put the ecstasy given to her by Liu Yu before leaving into the Shurima Chamber of Commerce's drinking water for the day. Everything went smoothly, with Kakashi and Shivana capturing a large number of the high-ranking members of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce.
According to the plan, all they need to do is seize control of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, which is something that neither Kakashi nor Shivana are good at, but they are skilled at coercion and intimidation. Shivana made full use of the lesson Liu Yu gave her and directly threatened with poison.
After a series of actions by the two, the Shurima Chamber of Commerce was in control. After all, this is not a very large chamber of commerce, if it weren't for the fact that the business of this chamber of commerce is mainly the border trade between the kingdom of Demacia and the kingdom of Noxus, Liu Yu would not have chosen this chamber of commerce.
Renekton is a member of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, and as a mid-level member of the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, he has been working in the Shurima Chamber of Commerce for more than a decade and has been in charge of cargo. After staying for a long time, he also has some feelings for the Shurima Chamber of Commerce, and he is reluctant to leave at will.
Recently, it has been rumored that the Shurima Chamber of Commerce started by stealing magic crystal mines, whether it is Renekton is not clear, but he knows that his Chamber of Commerce has been investigated by Noxus recently, and some high-level officials have begun to leave the Chamber of Commerce, and many people are discussing whether the Chamber of Commerce can be maintained, and Renekton is also very worried.
