Chapter 615 The Environmental Protection Agency and the King's Guard
After successfully completing the crowning, John, after returning to his temporary residence, exercised his first king's decree to establish the San Jose Environmental Protection Agency.
"Environmental Protection Bureau?"
Several representatives of the noble parliament looked a little confused about the new noun proposed by His Majesty of the King.
"The specific function of this EPA is to protect all natural environments and artificial buildings within the San Jose area and the cleanliness of artificial buildings, and not to be damaged by humans," John explained.
Several new nobles suddenly realized that it was the responsibility of the garbage-cleaning personnel in the city before?
So these people immediately relaxed.
Although the names are different in different places, the responsibilities of sanitation workers are indeed roughly the same. However, John's Environmental Protection Bureau's functions are more comprehensive and are close to that of later generations.
Without the constraints of the noble council, the King John's card was still very useful. It took no three days for the Environmental Protection Bureau to have full recruitment of people.
The ordinary workers here use honest and honest peasants, while the management considers some young people from small businessmen who have studied books, as well as those who are now in the Hegar aristocratic class.
Manpowers such as the second son of the family.
The director is Mark, a follower of John. This former bounty hunter who had created the Mark Gang has proved that his ability is still good. He mastered a Hegal Environmental Protection that does not involve too many sensitive power categories.
The game is still competent.
At the same time, after the recruitment of personnel was gathered, the first task of Environmental Protection Director Mark was to start cleaning up sewage canals of all sizes in San Jose, and then cover at least two public toilets and a public bathroom in each block.
The king likes cleanliness, from the members of the noble parliament to the people of the City of Gold, all felt that it was a bit of a big deal about this. However, since the king likes cleanliness and does not spend their money anyway, then change it!
The nobles' parliament also had an optimistic attitude towards this. The nobles who were afraid that the new king would compete for power with them would think that it would be better for the king to like to spend time on such trivial matters.
After John learned about the reactions of the noble council and the people in the city from Arthur who was sent to observe the situation, he smiled and said to Theresia, who was staying in Hegar, who had not returned home for the time being:
"In this way, as long as I don't take care of it for the time being, can I be a nominal idle king and those nobles are not happy to be like this?"
Theresia covered her mouth and smiled, feeling compassion for the stupidity and care of those in the noble parliament.
With her eyes and what she saw with John these days, it is not difficult to guess that John was deliberately paralyzing the powerful nobles of the nobles in the noble parliament.
Moreover, the Environmental Protection Bureau, which is just a department that cleans up garbage and improves the living, actually actually involves tentacles in all aspects of San Jose. It won’t take long to be full of John’s eyeliners in this Golden City.
John's plan was as Teresia thought, otherwise it would not be special. A relatively weak neutral faction in the noble parliament appointed him as deputy director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, and among his followers, Marvin and Drew
A subordinate with rich experience in mundane affairs was assigned to Mark.
There are two experts in dealing with upper-level figures. In addition, Mark was originally a few younger brothers who were good at dealing with lower-level figures as supporters. Moreover, Marvin and Drew are new bronze masters, plus Mark, a stronger master,
It is already a waste of talent to deal with gangsters in ordinary cities.
"Mark, your task is to try to complete the urban renovation task of San Jose as early as possible, and not to cause trouble or be afraid of trouble."
"Yes, your majesty!" Mark saluted and then said with some questions:
"Your Majesty, do you have to use your money for the renovation and cleaning plan of the city? Are we asking for some funds from the noble parliament? After all, the Environmental Protection Bureau is also a government department of Haigar?"
John shook his head.
"Not good. We are less involved in the noble council now, and we can't argue with them for a little money. We have to find ways to generate income by ourselves. Moreover, the Environmental Protection Bureau is not without a way to make money..."
Even Theresia was curious about what John had to make money from a clean yamen like the Environmental Protection Bureau.
"Tell me how the Environmental Protection Bureau should make money, do you charge a cleaning fee?"
John smiled without saying a word, and then said to Mark:
"Now, we will first formulate a sanitation regulation. As a regulation that is passed on to all cities in San Jose and even in the future, I can give you the EPA the right to fine those who do not care about hygiene in public places and violate the health regulations. In this way, the EPA will follow up
There is a source of continuous funds…”
Mark and Theresia were immediately impressed by John's thoughts after hearing what he said.
At the same time, John also called Phil Wood, Squad Hutchs and Colonel Henry, who were following.
Needless to say, Phil is his little fan, and Squad Hutchs and Colonel Henry are both minion characters he brought back from the Earth plane. After the system transformation, he is absolutely loyal, so he naturally needs to be more at ease when using it.
.
"I am going to let you form my King's Guard. Henry, you will be the chief guard. I will give you the title of the Knights tomorrow. I hope you can complete the formation of the guard as soon as possible!"
Henry, who has always been stable, couldn't help but thank him excitedly:
"Follow your will, my Majesty!"
The reason why John chose to make the decision was not the strongest Hatches with silver strength, but Colonel Henry, who was a nobleman and had been with the British Empire army in another world for more than ten years. It was because his strength did not mean his ability to do things was the same.
Excellent, of course Hutchis is also excellent in exploration and bringing people, but when it comes to training a large-scale army, it is far less excellent than Henry, a professional soldier.
So the next day, also in the hall of the noble parliament, the colonel was directly conferred as a hereditary knight by John and served as the commander of the King's Guard, with the same military rank as the colonel.
"With the recruitment of soldiers, I recommend you to go to the mines around San Jose to find people. The miners have good obedience and are more brave than farmers. They are the best quality soldiers we can find at present!"
Colonel Henry was a little disagreeable after hearing the Lord's words, because in his eyes, the best source of troops should be the top students from the orthodox military academy that was once the world.
Yes, in his time, those who could graduate from higher education institutions were all top students, including regular military academies. Of course, Henry's idea was just the best situation, because even in his twentieth century, ordinary
Most of the soldiers are not well-educated soldiers. Those who actually graduate from military academy basically become officers after joining the army.
And in the absence of military officers, such soldiers recruited from miners who may not know a lot is undoubtedly a very primitive army. Fortunately, this world is not the ancient world with cold weapons, and
The situation in the mid-nineteenth century fifty or sixty years ago in his previous world was similar, which gave Henry a place to use what he learned.
