Chapter 418: Yin Owl (I)

"Intelligence agents have started spreading rumors......"

In the lord's office, Edith reported to the maid with a thick stack of documents, but, at this point, the maid interrupted her.

"Wait, don't highlight me and Seth, and have them write songs and stories about the military, with a focus on 'Fighting Bravely.'" ”

While talking, the maid was still correcting the government affairs handed down below, and the people below couldn't make up their minds about some things, after all, they had just become civil servants for a short time, and their ability to handle affairs was far from enough, and it took a while to learn.

Because of the influence of the Black Forest, there have been several monster attacks on villages in the Grim Wind Territory recently, but there have been no casualties, if it is only more than strength, the civilians of the Sad Wind Territory are more powerful than the militias of other countries, and in addition, the maid thinks that it has been affected, and the civilians who have awakened the bloodline may be more than those few farmers, and there should be more in the Grimy Wind Territory.

People are divided into qualifications, and bloodline awakening naturally requires talent, with the current basic education level in this world, many geniuses may be buried due to family reasons, even in today's Wende City, this kind of thing is possible.

This matter cannot be managed for the time being, and if you want to make a demographic count, Wende City alone is already a lot of trouble, let alone other towns and villages.

Sensing that the progress of the 'Magic Immersion' seems to be accelerating, the maid has begun to build public opinion, which is a more important step in the maintenance of stability.

Edith tilted her head and thought about it, she couldn't figure out why she was promoting the army's 'heroism and good fighting', in general, shouldn't it be propaganda that the lord can protect the civilians at this time, and has the determination to protect the civilians?

After more than a year of studying, Edith's thinking has undergone some changes, but she still has not been able to detach herself from the three views of this world.

"It is the military that protects civilians, we are just the ones who lead the army, and the two cannot be confused. "The maid pointed out Edith's 'mistake', but Edith was confused and couldn't understand the difference between the two.

At this time, Latinia, who was lying on the sofa eating a cream cake without the image of a goddess, turned the fork in her hand and said: "What Serra means is not only to let the civilians know the importance of the army, but also to give them the glory they deserve!

After listening to the words of the goddess of wealth, it dawned on Edith that she didn't need to think about anything, just hearing these words could give her goosebumps.

"Besides, if we want to strengthen the 'centripetal force', we can see whether a lord is wise or not from the daily life and the wealth of the people, and on the premise that they are rich enough, people need not only a lord who can win battles and protect them, but also a lord who can make them richer is a good lord. ”

Latinia cut a small piece of cake with a fork and said with a smile, "It's been the same throughout the ages!"

"What's more, we can't give them a title of nobility. The maid continued, "Perhaps this generation of knights and their next generation will be able to resist the temptations of all sorts of things, but the next generation may be content with pleasure, like those nobles, and become enemies we need to deal with." I can give them honor, I can give them wealth, but I can't give them titles!"

"Man is a creature that can easily fall, I can't expect the descendants of knights to be as good as them and love the Storm Leader and be willing to give everything for it, I won't force them to do anything, but I don't want them to be my enemies. ”

"And I am also depriving the nobles of their powers step by step, and in the end, the nobles will only have one title left, but before that, if I want to give knights titles, I must give them things that match, such as territories, such as land, but these things will eventually be nationalized, and since they will eventually be taken back, then I should not have given them these in the first place. ”

The maid smiled indifferently, "In my vision, nobility becomes a symbol of honor, a noble identity, not a class, a class that is very easy to solidify and lead to the stagnation of social development. 'If you want the horse to run and want the horse not to eat grass', it is impossible, anyone who participates in the construction can get the reward corresponding to his position, but only hard work can climb up, and those who do not work hard can enjoy the wealth created by their parents, don't think about getting involved in the sad wind collar. ”

Listening to the maid's words, Edith licked her lips excitedly, she tried to imagine such a future, 'Sister Serena' had already described it to her before, but at that time it was difficult for her to imagine what good that future was, without nobles and knights, who would protect their territory?

But now she understands!

In the future, competition between people is the key, and limited competition can not only protect talents, but also promote the development of society.

And the gradual promotion of basic education is to allow many people to have the opportunity to 'go up', and after the power of the nobility is deprived a little bit, it is difficult for them to suppress those who want to climb up, if they have to suppress it, it will definitely set off public anger, and then they can also add fuel to the fire, taking away the military power in the hands of the nobility.

At that time, if they were content with pleasure, the nobles might not be fine, but if they wanted to have power again, they would have to work as hard as everyone else.

While it's impossible to guarantee that everyone is on the same page, it does ensure that society has enough vitality and vitality to not be like the Sadwind Leader that Edith lived in before she was fourteen years old, and although she didn't like to use the word, the Sadwind Leader was indeed 'twilight' at the time.

She had been to Greenland once, but in retrospect, there was not much difference between Greenlandch and the Sadwind Collar at that time.

Aristocrats are nobles, commoners are commoners, adventurers cannot become nobles, although nobles will also decline, but as long as the title is not deprived, they will always be nobles, always superior.

This is called class solidification, and generally speaking, only people who do not see hope will choose to become risk-takers, and such people tend to never return.

Until now, adventurers have almost become a class, because the father or mother is an adventurer, and they may not be able to earn enough money when the child is born.

After all, adventurers tend not to stay in one place for too long, and if the local prostitutes still want to make money, then they had better give birth to the child in their womb, otherwise once the child is miscarried, their business will be ruined, and no one will patronize a woman with a swollen belly or even a ulcer genital.

When Edith was young, she could only see the surface of the glamour, but she also grew up, and as she grew up, especially in the last two years, she saw the 'weirdness' hidden beneath the glamour, and those things were simply disgusting.

Fortunately, she met 'Sister Serena' at her most innocent and rebellious age, so that she did not become the person she hated the most when she was a child.

Edith firmly believes that this is the future of the Sad Wind Leader, and even the future of the world!

The maid didn't know what Edith was feeling in her heart, so she stopped her pen, stretched, and asked, "How is the elf doing?"

Edith was wandering away from the world when she heard the maid's voice, and she was stunned for two seconds before she could react.

"Elf...... Oh! Now she still refused to talk to anyone, and no one could say a word to her except her brother and some wild elves. ”

After a pause, Edith added, "But she's eating now, and basically, she's quiet as long as there's no 'humans' around her......"

Hearing this, the maid frowned, "I think I have to meet her...... I think there's a good chance she'll kill herself. ”
