"Recently, the public security in Cadian City has been somewhat chaotic. Nearly three hundred criminals have crowded the prison. Although they are not dead, they are disruptors of order."
"So I decided to turn half of them into slaves. This has three benefits. One is to warn the world not to commit crimes, and it will allow Cadian City to have a lot more coolies. The third is to add an extra income to the principality's treasury." "Finally, again, the most scarce thing in our Principality of Shayeru is loyal high-level professionals. Although this matter cannot be rushed, it cannot be ignored."
"Be confident in your closeness, and a gentleman should take precautions before things happen! Although our Principality of Shayeru does not participate in any disputes, if we fail to protect ourselves, we will be targeted by other principalities."
The imperial meeting started on time, and a middle-aged man spoke first, which was a habit he had developed over the years. Everyone present acquiesced to his behavior, either thinking hard or sipping tea.
This person's name is Andre, the consul of the Principality of Shayeru. Although he usually likes to show off, he is also the right-hand man in running the principality.
His philosophy is very simple. "Stability" is the foundation for the development of any principality, and it is also a strong backing. If the Principality of Shayeru is not peaceful, it will become like a rootless duckweed. Although it looks graceful and gorgeous, it can be shaken by a gust of wind.
It can subvert everything.
What he mentioned most every day just now was the recruitment of powerful and loyal professionals to the principality. If the other party can choose to stay, then paying more gold coins will not be a problem.
However, in the eyes of the world, the Principality of Sayeru always seems to be somewhat alienated, or it can be said that it does not sincerely make friends with anyone.
In the concept of gold coins being supreme, everything has a label, and anyone can convert it into a specific amount. But those high-level professionals, even peak beings, do not value these things first, but a place where they can
A place for meditation and practice.
The "sense of belonging" cannot be converted into gold coins, nor can the bottom line be lowered by property. In such a contradictory situation, there are naturally only a handful of supporters of the Principality of Shayru.
No matter how sophisticated the armor of the principality's cavalry is, it will never be able to withstand a blow from the strongest man. No matter how abundant the horses and weapons are, if they lack a commander, they are nothing more than useless decorations.
After Archon Andre said this, he closed his mouth. He frowned. Although he already knew the answer, he still expected Archduke Elba to say a few words for him.
"What Mr. Andre said is absolutely true. The problem of scarcity of high-level professionals has always been the Achilles' heel of the Principality of Shayel. I personally agree that the main focus should be on recruiting experts, and if possible, it is best to go to Par
Go to the Commonwealth of Vanuatu because there are many free people there."
"Furthermore, the purpose of gathering wealth is to better build the principality's cavalry. A liger without fangs is nothing to be afraid of, and an eagle without claws is destined to fall."
"Now the Principality of Cambay is planning to annex Iron Hook Island and Crab Island. If it really gets what it wants, what status should we, the Principality of Shayel, take?"
"Calmness is based on inviolable force. If there is no iron-blooded king, the moment of destruction is just a snap."
"Therefore, I feel that what the Principality's cavalry needs is not sophisticated equipment, but some high-level professionals who can take on important tasks."
"And I always firmly believe that with Lord Elba's ability, as long as he really wants to, what peak powerhouse can't be achieved? There is no doubt about this matter. This is my attitude, and I hope you can also pay attention to it."
The second person to speak was Bauer. This man is the commander of the Principality of Shayeru. Although he is only a middle-level knight, he is very good at fighting and knows the essence of mobilizing troops and punishing generals.
As a native of Shayer, Bauer naturally knows the situation in his principality. Gold coins are far more valuable than anything else, and everyone is struggling for gold coins.
However, Bauer was very worried about this situation. Although he had never experienced a divine victory, he heard the crisis from the old man's mouth.
Thinking about it from another perspective, if one day other principalities launch a war against Shayul, how will they face it? Gold coins may be exchanged for many things, but on the battlefield, it is worse than a rusty and inferior dagger.
Nowadays, the wealth of the Principality of Shayeru has loomed over the entire continent of Austria. If no one is secretly spying on it, even Grand Duke Elba may not believe it.
Just now, Bauer felt that Consul Andre's insistence was very correct, because only if a principality worships countless strong people, it will not be stumbling secretly.
However, as a minister, all Bauer can do is to speak earnestly. The final decision-making power rests in the hands of Grand Duke Elba, and any trend of the principality will be determined by his decision.
"Wonderful! Your advice is like the ice water in the warm moon and the scorching sun in the dark rainy night!" The man who spoke last said softly while clapping his hands.
"It's just that, in my eyes, these are all bullshit, and they are just some mediocre views of women!"
"This world is no longer the period of ancient ferocious beasts, nor is it the darkest moment under the rule of the old king. Times are developing rapidly, and qualitative changes have begun, but you are always living in the past!"
"Lord Andre, let me ask you, among all the top experts, which one is not born and raised in this country? Have you ever heard of anyone who defected from his hometown because of his property?"
"Lord Bauer, let me ask you again, in what way are the current principality's cavalry inferior to other principalities in terms of quantity and equipment? You are wrong about the reason why their combat power is so low. It is even impossible to talk about it at all!" "If you ask me, instead of pleading with those who have high ambitions, we should build a principality academy. And as long as there are talents with potential, not only do they not have to pay a copper coin, but they can even get a scholarship from the Principality of Shayel every year.
Reward."
"Because only in this way can we fundamentally solve the problem of insufficient force. And only in this way can we have a group of loyal supporters."
Financial Officer Claude curled his lips, and then expressed his opinion with a smile. Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard in everyone's ears.
Prince Bronster nodded after hearing this. In his opinion, Financial Officer Claude's suggestion is the most practical and the best plan currently available to the Principality of Shaylu.
However, he did not say anything. As an observer, he could only listen, but could not ask or question. This was the order of Grand Duke Elba, because Bronster was still too young.
"Hahaha, all three of you are right, and everyone's words have their own truth."
"First of all, Archon Andre, you are solely responsible for recruiting top experts. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me directly for discussion."
"Second, Commander Bauer knows the situation of the Principality's cavalry best. Therefore, in this regard, just do it boldly, and I will bear all the consequences."
"Finally, the proposal to build the Principality College is very good. Financial Officer Claude, you have to come up with a specific plan within three days, otherwise I will strangle you to death with my own hands."
"And you need to send someone to the Alchemy City again to find out why the Tundra Continent can have magic cannons, but our Principality of Shayeru is shut out."
After saying this, Grand Duke Elba slowly stood up and walked out of the stone room first. Today's imperial meeting came to an end. Everyone had their own business, either frowning or nodding with a smile.
