Chapter 306 Welcome to the new dynasty


Chapter 306 Welcome to the New Dynasty Yazheng

Sitting in front of the walnut desk, Horn put down his quill, flexed his fingers, and looked at the door of the study with a frown.

Several craftsmen stood at the door, installing a new door for the study.

Different from the previous door that was smashed by Jeanne, this new door was carved and inlaid with a large number of gear patterns by skilled craftsmen.

Not only the doors, but also the decorations, tapestries, and furniture of the house are inlaid with chains and gears.

After the City Hall of Castle Joan of Arc became the temporary administrative center of the Papal State, it naturally had to make structural changes in order to distinguish it from the church.

The new dynasty has a new atmosphere.

Another point is the economic shrinkage caused by famine. If everyone doesn’t sell their houses, who will decorate them?

As a result, a large number of small workshops that made furniture and decorations shrank.

Horn placed this order. In addition to meeting his own needs, it also happened to save their industry a little bit.

But I don’t know why, they always think that this kind of decoration that exposes gears and chains to the air will definitely be favored by the Pope.

Of course, these gear chains are not necessarily real iron products, many are wood products or stone carvings painted with metal paint.

This admiration for metallic colors and gears has been the market trend during this period.

The main reason is that after the famine, the main people who have spare money to buy these goods are the war monks.

Most of these war monks are rough and tough, and they like shiny things.

In addition, the war monks have a deep affection for the holy guns, especially the abandoned old guns that have been on the battlefield with them.

He would even regard the holy gun as a part of his body, and would rather pay to redeem it than let Horn take it for recycling.

The war monks themselves have the habit of using discarded holy gun parts, such as gears, as pendants and amulets.

When customizing clothes and hats in tailor shops, the war monks would always take out these discarded parts and ask the tailors to make them into the clothes.

Some made the broken firing rod into a cane, and some made the pawl into a brooch.

In order to win over these "new knights", heads of households, citizens, and wealthy businessmen began to imitate the costumes of the war monks.

This sub-art trend has successfully spread throughout the Kush territory, encouraged by several workshops that have received large orders and the sculptors they sponsor.

Thinking of this, Horn pulled out a document from the crumbling pile of documents.

This is a report submitted by Chilvis, the abbot of the Holy Scythe Monastery. The main content is that Isolde, a wealthy businesswoman in Sugua Town, suddenly donated 400 gold pounds to the Holy Scythe Monastery yesterday.

This is not an injection of capital to get shares, but a real donation.

This 400 gold pounds is almost one-third of her family property and accounts for more than half of her working capital.

Turn to the end of the report, and Armand, as the secretary, posted three related notes.

The first is that the female widow has decided to give her carriage to the Salvation Army for free.

The second is that the mayor of Sugua Town seems to want to seize his family property.

The third is that the female widow tried to marry her daughter to Jeshka, and they met frequently during this period.

After reading the three pieces of paper in turn, and then reading Isolde's industry category, Horn picked up the quill to give instructions.

"The first wealthy citizen to actively support us can be used as an example to reward support. We plan to place an order for dyeing the Salvation Army uniforms for 900 gold pounds, and Jeshka will be sent to negotiate."

This As soon as he put down his pen, Horn wanted to rest for a while, but the newly installed door was pushed open by Madeleine.

"Your Majesty, it's time for the regular meeting."

"Got it." Horn stood up with his eyebrows pinched and strode towards the conference hall.

Since the end of the 100-household reform, Horn found that the original small-group government structure was somewhat unable to adapt to the operation of 200,000 people.

So he made adjustments again, integrating and adjusting the original chaotic responsibilities and newly added functions.

At present, the Senate and the College of Cardinals remain unchanged, and there are five courts and one courtyard under the College of Cardinals.

St. Kuting, Sissi serves as the interim Holy Treasury Director, and her functions include a series of finance-related areas such as taxation, budgeting, expenditures and the formulation of economic laws.

The Court of Truth, headed by Madeleine as the Chief of Truth, is mainly responsible for safeguarding beliefs and doctrines. To put it bluntly, it is public security, local administration, propaganda and public construction. The Gospel Court, with Busak as the Evangelist, is mainly responsible for trade, missionary work, foreign exchanges and translation.

In the exorcism court, Jeanne serves as the chief exorcist, and Hakuto and Jeshka perform specific tasks.

The main function is to expel devils and fight back against heretics. To put it bluntly, it is to fight and prepare for war.

The trial court, with Martial as the presiding judge, is responsible for judicial management and legal enforcement, and makes the final judgment on the case.

The Privy Council, with Armand as Privy Councilor, is mainly responsible for Horn and various clerical tasks, and also serves as a staff officer.

In addition, there are some small organizations that are directly responsible to Horn himself, such as the Children's Army, the Holy Fathers, etc.

The heads of these departments hold regular meetings every seven days to report on their work and formulate plans. This is a habit they developed in Qiu Mu Island.

After such a long period of training and governance, the bishops and senior leaders who can stay on the front line have basically been trained.

“Is everyone here?” As soon as he sat down, Horn opened the paperwork on the table and asked without raising his head.

“Everyone is here.”

"Then let's get started." Horn raised his head, "Bishop Madeleine, let's start with you."

During this period, the development of the Kush Territory was going very smoothly. Several bishops quickly finished their reports, and the regular meeting was Officially entered into the topic.

"The Cheka has found the horse and carriage dealer that accepted the bribe." Horn clicked on the note in his hand with his quill, "If nothing else, it should be the bandits."< br>
“These bandits are really whimsical.” Busak couldn’t help laughing.

Horn coughed lightly: "Have you read all the Cheka's investigation reports on bandits?"

"Look." Madelean said with a frown, "It's still unimaginable that the bandits are actually around us."

"So I have always believed that violence alone is not enough to eliminate the bandits." Horn turned over Opened the investigation report on the bandits.

A low-level monk stood aside and read the document to the bishops present: "There are about 500-800 bandits in the group, and there are only a few dozen in the smaller groups. There are three main bandits, each under his command. There are more than a hundred horse bandits.

The three bandits are Bloodfoot Deford, Black Scar Blackska and Orc Grush.

Deford is the biggest talker. He acted cruelly, often attacking villages or kidnapping, and killed countless people.

Blackska is responsible for smuggling and black market sales, and also makes money from loan sharking. It is said that he has many connections with Lower River.

The second one is Grush, who is the weakest but the most capable. It is said that he is mainly responsible for blackmailing wealthy businessmen passing by and setting up private checkpoints, and is also responsible for protecting the cottage.

However, he has a good reputation. He rarely kills civilians and mainly earns tribute. Many refugees who are forced to go up the mountain will defect to him. "

"Now that the investigation is clear, do you mean to start a fight? "Jeanna no longer wore a cumbersome lace hollow dress like last time, but a slim-fitting men's one-shoulder slanted cape.

Horn asked in return: "Has the legion's adjustment and deployment been completed? ”

Jeanne lowered her head, pulled out a few documents from the papers in front of her, and handed them to Horn.

According to this report, the current distribution, promotion, retirement, replacement and other issues within the Salvation Army have been prepared.

The First Black Hat Legion was personally led by Jeshka. After all, Victor was seriously injured and was not yet well.

The Black Caps' second legion was led by Coleman. Although he had an amputation, his ankle was still there.

Shilov recently helped him design a brass gear prosthesis, which is almost the same as a normal person except that he can't run fast.

The Third Black Hat Legion was led by Jourdain, a native of Fort Joan. He was originally a street vendor selling cloth. He was promoted for his outstanding performance in the battle to capture the city of Fort Joan.

The Fourth Black Hat Legion is led by Deputy Commander Brune. Rudillo's injury has not healed yet, so he can only rest first.

The fifth Black Hat Legion is led by Momrie, a veteran of Moulin Rouge Village, and the Sixth Black Hat Legion is led by Barnaby, the new companion of Castle Joan of Arc.

"In this case, let's set off in three days, with the third to sixth Black Hat Legions as the main ones, to launch an attack on the bandits.

These legions are either new officers or war monks New, just for training.”
