Chapter 676: Conversation with Senior Edwin
After discussing serious matters with the king, Blaney left the palace satisfied. The king also eliminated his concerns about the Castle of Conson and tried to "borrow" talents to govern the country.
In this vast land, there are very few families that can truly provide universal education. However, Castle Conson stands out and becomes the best among them.
According to incomplete statistics, the reading rate of civilians in Conson Castle has reached an astonishing half! This is undoubtedly an extremely remarkable achievement, which makes people marvel.
You know, the Castle of Conson is a family that focuses on business. The reason why they attach so much importance to education is actually very simple - business activities require a large number of professional talents.
Whether accountants, salesmen or copywriters, they all play a vital role in the development of the family. Therefore, Castle Conson spared no expense to set up schools to cultivate these needed talents.
In this way, if the king dares to boldly use the talents in the territory of Conson Castle, the current difficulties will hopefully be solved.
However, the king was concerned about this. After all, once these people entered the bureaucracy, the power of the Castle of Conson would surely rise to its peak, which would undoubtedly pose a certain threat to the king's ruling position.
When the king was hesitant, Blaney stepped forward and explained the interests involved in detail to the king, which eased the king's worries a little. After careful consideration, the king finally decided to put aside his concerns and boldly use the talents of Conson Castle.
In fact, the king's grasp of various intelligence is quite timely. Since Tan Aili successfully seized the throne, she has vigorously promoted the population growth policy and made all children enjoy free education. Although this measure seems good, it actually brings huge cost pressure.
It is estimated that the cost of educating each child for one year is as high as 20 gold coins! Moreover, this does not include the printing cost of textbooks, the purchase cost of teaching materials, the children's meals, the cost of hiring teachers, etc.
It can be said that to achieve such universal education, considerable funds are needed. Noble families naturally hire teachers to teach their children for a long time, but ordinary people have no chance to study at all because education has always been expensive.
After the aristocracy monopolizes education, even if the aristocracy is eradicated, it will form a vicious circle. At that time, they will have to compromise and ask the descendants of the aristocracy to do things, but after a few years, it will return to the old way.
Therefore, education for the common people is imperative, and breaking the monopoly of knowledge by the nobles is the only way to break the deadlock. Marshal Tan Aili seems to be one step ahead and implements universal education in the territory.
Her original intention was to educate the common people so that most of the population would no longer be able to believe in religion and completely block the return of the church, but it also contained the possibility of breaking the monopoly of the aristocracy.
So the king sent people to Sheldon Castle to investigate the model of universal education. Sheldon had experience in universal education, so the king just copied it. As for the content, it was not a problem for the court to compile it...
Blaney was not upset when he did not get the SSS wolf cub in the palace. After all, there was no great need for combat at the moment, so he could just slowly look for the cub.
She had an SSS elk and a saber-toothed tiger cub, but Bryony didn't want to use them at all. Facts had proved that the wolf was the best mount, suitable for long-distance travel and crossing mountains. Although it was not known for its combat ability, if it was an SSS-level pet, it would not be weak either, at least it had excellent means of escaping.
Therefore, the best mount for a magician is the wolf, and other mounts are flashy and impractical. This is proven by Kashen.
In this case, Blaney went to the Magic Academy and took away the ready-made custom pocket watches to solve the problem of out-of-stock at Rossi's pocket watch shop. The dark gold movement is the core part of the Rock III puppet, and all of them must be produced.
She missed the big boy very much. When she found out that he was with the foxy fairy, she decided not to show up and join in the fun. She should go back to the magic island first. Her dream of seeing the big boy was almost shattered. It was good to be alive.
Because the war against the southern countries has begun, there is no doubt that it will go all the way to the seaside, and the fourteen small countries will disappear from then on. It is the best option for the big boy to assist the fox fairy in fighting.
Bryony relaxed at the academy and after staying one night, he returned to his own cemetery teleportation array through the teleportation array, and then transferred to the secret underground teleportation array in Maota Village.
This area is still being built on a large scale, but after the unification of the Magic Island, more magicians have been involved in the construction, and the construction speed has increased significantly.
Blaney was very satisfied. Many businesses had already settled in the commercial district, which was gradually prospering. The distribution of profits among the towers had become fairer. The magic towers were all controlled by the great magicians who were sent out from the Witte Tower, so there would be unified planning for several decades.
The magicians became free to move around and practice all over the island.
She first went to Rosita, a magic tower under her jurisdiction. It was now planned to be an institution for developing the magic kitchen industry and would not compete with other magic towers for the industry.
Although it is an independent business and ranks last in terms of combat effectiveness, it has planned the six villages under its name into supporting bases and has the strongest commercial capabilities.
Elder Edwin was in charge at this time, so the magic tower operated very smoothly. The numerous engineering construction tasks were handled by a large administrative department, and a basic pattern was formed.
Blainey didn't need to worry about trivial matters at all. After meeting Senior Edwin, the two had a brief discussion about Rosita's development. Basically, everything could be as usual and there was nothing big to worry about.
Senior Edwin put down his coffee cup and said, "Blaine, when will the issue of Carnegie, the evil wizard of the Snowland Principality, be resolved? This submarine has also been tested and deployed, and I think there is no problem..."
"Senior, you are still thinking about the Snowland Principality. That's right. I have spent manpower and material resources to develop the submarine just for Carnegie. With your intervention, we can get twice the result with half the effort. It should be included in the plan. But wait a little longer. My big boy has made great progress in martial arts through the experience of the past two years. Let's talk about it after he pacifies the four quarters for the motherland."
The old man's face darkened: "Alas! I am eighty-six years old. If I don't solve this problem now, I'm afraid I won't have much time left. Carnegie is my last battle, so we must not delay it."
"Ah! Senior, do you have any premonition? Why do you say such unlucky words when everything is fine? Do you have any unlucky feeling..."
"My child, I am old, and my weakness is visibly evident in the past few years. I also want to prolong my life and do not want to die! Generally speaking, I am a very old man, and I want to compete with Carnegie while I still have the strength. We should have the last battle, and whether I live or die, I will be able to die in peace..."
Blainey was moved and said emotionally: "Senior, please wait a little longer. The special ability of my big boy is the key. If you rely on yourself, you will undoubtedly die. The entire Magic Island could not move Carnegie.
It is precisely because of the big boy's existence that the disciple dared to touch Carnegie's idea. He is in the period of training, and it would be better if he had the strength of a high-level knight, which would be safer..."
Blaney doesn't know that Kashen has advanced, so he hopes to wait a little longer, but the senior seems to feel that time is running out and wants to have a decisive battle with the opponent. Perhaps this is the obsession of the battle magician.
