"Mr. Oran believes that you will definitely like this relaxed and pleasant job. The university is still in its inception. Mr. Oran does not need to teach students now. He only needs to formulate a textbook according to my requirements. After the first batch of universities is opened, it will become the first batch of textbooks for students to learn. Mr. Oran, you are a professor of the history and literature department of the university. Later, you go to the first floor to find Mr. Harley, who is by the window in the fourth row and fifth row. He will be your assistant teacher. You two will complete the textbook compilation of the history and literature department of the university together. Thank you. The kingdom is currently limited in staff. You will have to work hard for a while. The first batch of students are expected to be in June next year. There are still ten months left before the time is tight, thank you!"

William was very sincere, and Oran nodded solemnly. Isn’t this the purpose of his coming here this time?

Now half of the frost moon has passed, and the temperature is falling day by day. It won’t take long to go into the cold winter in this northern and southern land, but the first batch of crops have completed a bumper harvest. In addition, the food and food resources of the nobles seized from various territories of the original Iron and Steel Principality have arrived one after another, and the side food purchased from various main cities has also been piled up in the warehouses. Civilian serfs from all over the Kingdom of Flame will not have to worry about hunger at all this winter.

However, because of the destruction of the Iron and Steel Principality, the nobles of the Iron and Steel Principality did not dare to have any temper at all. This year, there will be a lot of food and property collected. A tax system will be adopted later, and agricultural tax will be collected according to the amount of land, and merchants will also have to collect commercial tax.

These taxes will be a huge asset that supports the operation of the entire Kingdom of Flame.

The Kingdom of Fire may be the most generous country in food. On the land of aristocratic people in other human countries, civilians often pay 70 to 80% of the harvest as taxes to the nobles. Serfs even need to pay nearly 90% of the food. In this way, even if everyone is a druid, the poor lower-class people always live on the verge of famine. As long as the year is not good, starving people to death is common, and various wild vegetables, tree bark and even grass roots are frequent visitors to most poor people's pots. However, in the Kingdom of Fire, Reno directly sets the food taxes of civilians and serfs to one-quarter and one-half.

The leaders were grateful, but Renault felt that the tax rate was definitely outrageous if compared with the previous life.

The nobles of other human kingdoms charge extremely high taxes, on the one hand, because they often do not really care about farming in the territory, improve farming technology or carry out effective labor management, so that the harvest of their land is not high, and when the tax is low, they cannot maintain their extravagant life. On the other hand, their luxury and extravagance are really sensational. A small baron will build a castle and provide for a housekeeper, a personal servant or maid, four first-class servants and four first-class maids, as well as a large number of servitudes, laundry maids, kitchen maids, grooms, etc., and there will be endless banquets and hunting activities. If a nobleman of faith, he will donate a large amount of wealth to the local church every year - and these will be converted into taxes and suppressed on the poor who have already had low harvests.

But the newly established kingdom of flame does not need these.

Moreover, Renault is very clear about one thing. Only by mastering ordinary people and mastering the interests of the vast majority of people can he gain faith as much as possible. If he wants to have the greatest extent of faith power, he must take care of these huge number of civilians and serfs. As for the nobles, there are few people and high requirements. If you give them some gifts, they may not necessarily appreciate it. However, civilians and serfs are just the opposite.

Originally, they were in dire straits, and they could not eat enough to drink or wear warm clothes, but the newly established Flame Kingdom not only allowed them to eat and sleep well, but also allowed them to have money to marry and their own land. How could they not let them be grateful from the bottom of their hearts, and even be grateful to them. Renault did not forget to promote the ideological education project, but he had never left the ideological education project. Now his own statues of gods have begun to be built in various places.

Of course, apart from these private reasons, the economic output of the agricultural society will actually be surpassed and replaced by industry. Farmland was once the main source of economic resources in the world, but soon the industry of the Flame Kingdom will flourish. Cement products led by Seria, as well as various simple potions factories that are cheap and even affordable to civilians will also be established. Cement plants are completely a national obligation to build.

However, the potion factory can bring huge capital output. The civilians will work in the factory. Each of them can get a considerable income. At that time, gold coins will flow out of the chain of factories and business. He does not intend to continue the development model of absorbing nutrients from farmers - but now the magic industry is still just a sign, so he must maintain this situation temporarily.

The development of the magic industry depends entirely on the strength of Seriya and Lao Gan, the old and young combination. Although he can make different suggestions, Renault does not understand the basic magic of this world after all, and his dragon language magic does not have the possibility of improvement and is a half-talented ability.

In addition, every day when Renault poked his head out and looked down at the entire King of Flames, he could see that there were large carriages parked at the gate of the King of Flames. Many ragged people were getting out of the carriages and receiving routine registration and inspection. These were all homeless serfs gathered from the various noble territories received by the Kingdom of Flames. They would be civilians in the future royal capital.

The population of the Flame Capital is still increasing. After confiscating the authority and part of the land in the hands of almost most nobles, the nobles did not need so many serfs. The land was not enough. The serfs with a large number of people seemed useless. Instead, they were wasted their food every day. Therefore, after negotiation, they were sold to the Flame Kingdom at the price of ten copper coins per person. The consuls from all over the country temporarily indicated some carriages to be transported to the capital. Similarly, Reno directly ordered William to vigorously reclaim wasteland, and almost all the vast land between the main steel city and the Flame Capital into wasteland, so that Lao Gan, a half-toned druid, would conduct an investigation, and at the same time promote the land fertilizer plan such as farm fertilizer.

It can be foreseen that the grain output will increase greatly next year. Even if you don’t have to buy food from the caravan, you can still be self-sufficient. What is even more gratifying is that the number of serfs is increasing, and many plans can be promoted one by one.

"The wooden house is enough. According to the new method you stipulate, the serfs or refugees who arrive in the territory do not have to participate in agricultural and factory labor at the beginning, but start to build their own houses, and learn the labor system and common sense education here in the process. This method is surprisingly good - they work extremely hard and praise the kindness of the great real dragon. After they complete these tasks, the basic labor system and common sense of life have been firmly imprinted in their minds." William stood in front of Renault at this time and reported the various situations in the capital recently.

"Everyone will give his all to build his own home. It's a simple truth," Renault smiled. "And the subtle education carried out in this kind of labor that is devoted to one's own hearts can be more deeply rooted in the hearts of any whip or scolding."

As he said that, Renault frowned slightly again: "But the wooden house is not as good as a house cut into stones. Especially in winter, even if we prepare enough hay and use mud to paste the walls, the house will still be cold."

"Your kindness is really touching, but the manpower really can't keep up," William shook his head regretfully. "There are too many new people, it is impossible to build a house cut into stones for everyone, nor can we use magic cement. It should be that the roads in various places are under construction, and the output of cement plants can't keep up at all. In fact, if it weren't for the establishment of several new logging farms and sawmills that had stored a large amount of wood in advance, we might not even be able to ensure sufficient wooden houses."

"Then at least ensure the supply of charcoal and let them spend the first winter," Renault nodded.

"There's another question," William hesitated for a moment, or decided to say it, "is about the literacy school you are advancing."

Reynolds frowned: "Literacy schools? Are those basic text-learning courses? What's wrong with it?"

"You require everyone in the territory to receive education, but now the population is influx, and basically all are poor people who do not recognize words and do not recognize numbers. The number of teachers is completely insufficient," William said in embarrassment. "We have added learning places in the central and western and southern areas of the capital, and have all the soldiers, craftsmen and department managers who recognize words take turns to teach after completing the work, but they are still too busy. Each 'classroom' accommodates limited people, and the new serf refugees lack discipline. Once there are too many people, the chaos in the scene is a disaster, and if there are fewer people, the classroom must be added."

"Add a classroom means an additional teacher," Renault frowned. "Didn't the war capture many nobles before? Many of them seem to have not been redeemed?"

"It has been sent to teach, but it is still not enough."

"Then recruit from various territories," Renault decided. "In addition to 'high-end talents' like Mr. Oran, many down-and-out nobles are also partly literate and should be interested in the additional subsidies for teachers. In addition, you need to start promoting the recruitment of cement factories, potions factories and other places, telling these serf refugees that both free and serf refugees can go to the factory to work, but they must know the number of words before they can register. Working in factories can be like those literacy teachers, with additional food subsidies, so that they will have motivation to learn - it will be easier to maintain discipline."
