Chapter 1084 6. The Young Man of Rikaner
The Free City left the Sunset Plains, but the shadow never dissipated and always shrouded the heads of the nobles.
In this era, the control of the country has always been by the royal power commanding the nobles, and the nobles controlling the civilians.
Vitalig was envious of the free city that he had at his fingertips. He felt that this was a good opportunity to bypass the nobles and firmly control the grassroots in the hands of the royal family.
However, due to lack of experience, the speed of order restoration was not ideal.
The nobles took refuge in danger and sold off their property. Xinwangdu is full of closed shops and has experienced Black Monday. The remaining six days are Black Tuesday, Black Wednesday... and Black Sunday.
Rebels and bandits appeared everywhere, and the kingdom's soldiers were exhausted to deal with them. This was the result of Annan leaving most of his things to him.
Because the king changed hands, the soldiers guarding the north began to disobey the orders of the new royal capital, and there was a vague risk of rebellion.
In the eyes of outsiders, the kingdom is in turmoil, and it seems that it has returned to that time in Liberty City. Vitalig sat firmly in the palace. As long as the three legends are still on their side, the kingdom will not fall apart.
“Do you hate Liberty City?”
On this day, Vitalig selected some officials to summon.
There are only a few people who say they don’t hate it, and most people respond with silence.
Knowing that this scene would happen, Vitalig opened a map of Allen's continent and asked them: "Who knows where Liberty City is?"
Officials, you look at me and me. You, how do they know? Moreover, Liberty City is a floating city and can run around everywhere.
“You don’t know, then why do we hate a country that we don’t even know where it is?” Vitalig spread his hands: “Some unpleasant things did happen in Free City and the Kingdom, but that was his fault. What happened with Crowe.”
"Annan and I are friends, and he helped me get the throne back, so I don't want you to have misunderstandings with Annan..."
"We will be loyal to His Majesty!"
"Very good, There are many empty positions in the kingdom now..."
The officials who lowered their heads realized what was going to happen next, and their breathing became heavy.
After the officials exited, Vitalig looked at the empty hall.
"Elwe, being a king is really hard..."
In the corner of the hall, the former legendary mage of the court, Elwe, who took over the position of chairman of the council, raised his head.
Vitalig smiled bitterly and said: "Free City did not wake them up, but made them more xenophobic. These people cannot be counted on... We have to re-cultivate a new group of people who have not been contaminated by the nobles. "
"There are millions of young people in the kingdom, it's still too late."
"Yes, we are not that bad, it is better than Annan starting from scratch..."
Vitalig felt better thinking about it. Annan wanted to build a new house, and he only had to renovate the house that was riddled with holes...
Is it really more labor-saving to just renovate than to rebuild...?
Vitalig turned into a tinker, filling the holes made by Crowe and Annan, easing the situation with the north, and scheming with the nobles...
When the guards ran in in panic, When he reported that the floating city appeared again in the Sunset Plain, the anxious Vitalig finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He left the palace in person and stood outside the city gate to greet Annan.
When the officials saw Annan, they were even more respectful than when they saw themselves as the king.
“Where is Mr. Kyle?” Vitalig only saw Olmedo following Annan.
“I left after the war without looking back, as if I had made some kind of determination.”
Annan had a good impression of Vitalig and walked with him like a friend. .
"Do me a favor?"
Vitalig told Annan about the northern rebels without any secret.
"How do you want me to help?" "Just pass by there. They are afraid of you. If I issue a few more pardons, they should return to the kingdom's rule obediently."
It was just a matter of convenience, Annan had no reason to refuse.
"I have another request." Vitalig said again.
"Don't be so open-minded, Vita. I'm helping you by helping me." Annan smiled kindly.
Vitalig looked much more relaxed, hiding his gratitude: "I have always admired your business acumen, can you teach..."
"So that's it? It's very simple. You If you want to open a tavern, put as much ice as you want, half a glass of wine with ice. If you want to open a restaurant, the chairs should be as uncomfortable as possible, and let the customers leave as soon as they finish. If you open a jewelry store...
< br>"Uh, that's not it..." Vitalig said awkwardly: "I have trained a group of young people, they are the future of the kingdom, and I want them to go to Free City to study. "
Annan was a little embarrassed: "But we are just passing by and will set off tomorrow. ”
"You can take them with you."
"Okay."
Annan declined Vitalig's request to stay, signed some trade matters, took a photo together, and took Vitalig with him Geese returned to Liberty City with his young man, and continued to drift north with the eagerness to return home.
......
The young man Vitalig found was energetic, energetic, and full of energy, without the stale smell of the nobility at all.
Annan admired them very much, not because these young people looked down at him with eyes full of reverence.
They were handed over to Ingrid by Annan, and she was asked to take this group of young people about her own age around the city.
"What about you?"
"My... secret!"
Ingrid knew that Annan would not do anything serious, but she still took the young people out. .
Like a mole crawling into the cave and sniffing around, the young people looked around curiously, such as the most numerous mansions.
Ingrid said: "This house has everything you need: shops, massage parlors, and pubs on the first floor. Above the second floor are residences. There are public bathrooms on each floor for the residents. Each room in the toilet and kitchen is no less than 15 square meters, with a window that can look out, and can accommodate a family of three.
They don't understand "square meters." ", but knew that this house was amazingly perfect... and there were dozens of the same houses.
"It's amazing..." Sigma, who was covered in freckles, exclaimed.
They didn't go up. Floor, I only walked around the shops on the first floor
They were most interested in an "Annan Reeves peripheral store". Women pointed at posters, signboards and other products and screamed, while men were stunned at the prices.
“If you want something to sell for a price, you must give it meaning. This is what Mr. Annan said.”
Then they looked at parks, toilets, drainage canals and other public places. facility. There are also some in the new royal capital, but they are definitely not as clean and beautiful.
“Is this toilet not in use?” Someone couldn’t help asking because it was so clean.
“Just let the residents consciously maintain public facilities.” Ingrid said: “Some basic services provided by the lord are like air. When it exists, you take it for granted, but you will find out when it is gone. How uncomfortable.”
"Is this what Mr. Annan said?"
"No, this is what Mr. Olmedo said."
Ingrid pointed to the door of the men's room and "take a small step forward. , a big step forward for civilization" slogan.
"This is what Lord Annan said."
