Cultivation of the Elf Continent

Although the border town is not large in scale, it still controls about a dozen territories of various sizes around it. Since the environment and various living conditions of the territory are not as good as those in the border town, these noble lords gather in the border town. The main leaders of the border town The members are nobles, mercenaries, merchants, and civilians. There are no serfs in the border town. The lowest level is civilians. Of course, the border town also has its own land, which is provided for farming by the civilians and collects 5000% of the tax. At the same time, the merchants in the border town are paying part of the commercial tax, plus some gold coins delivered by these nobles, which constitutes the main financial revenue of the border town. Although this is a lot of revenue, there is no excess in the accounts of the border town. The former city lord, Viscount Elk, counted his personal bodyguards as the guards of the border city. This meant that he used the finances of the border city to support his own guards. Of course, Viscount Elk knew this scale very well. While not affecting the normal operation of the border town, it can also enrich their own pockets. The politicians and officials in the border town are also very sophisticated. Naturally, they turn a blind eye or, it can be said, are incompetent and dare not go there. Guan, how can a small official dare to take care of the city lord's affairs? Therefore, Viscount Elk is more like listening to politics behind the curtain, and these politicians and officials are just a group of tool people. This is the situation in the border town before, and this is also what Halson left behind. The reason for this group of officials is that the rectification needs to be gradual. If they are all evacuated at once, who will manage this huge border town? The conference hall, all the politicians and officials are quietly waiting for the arrival of the new city lord Harson, one by one They were all uneasy. After all, no one knew how the new city lord would deal with old officials like them. Halson pushed the door open and walked in. The people sitting there hurriedly stood up to greet Halson. For this man who defeated the elk, Viscount, the new city lord with an army of 230 people, naturally no one dared to look down upon him. "Everyone, please sit down," Halson sat at the conference table and said to the crowd, "Everyone sitting here, now, I will give you a chance to choose for yourself. If you are willing to stay and contribute to the border town, just continue to sit here. If you have other ideas, make secret moves and enrich your own pockets, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, otherwise when the time comes , it’s not just the official position that is thrown away,” Halson said lightly, everyone was also stunned, before they arrived, the new city lord actually let them choose by themselves. After a while, no one left voluntarily, haha After looking around at everyone, Halson said, "Since you have chosen to stay, please remember these rules to avoid making mistakes." As Halson spoke, he sent a stack of documents to everyone. Of course, These are just the bottom-line rules set by Halson to restrain and manage these officials. "Okay, next, let's talk about the specific situation of the border town, starting with you." Halson pointed to an official and said, "Um. , I am the financial officer of Border City, and Border City's current accounts only have one thousand gold coins, two hundred sets of armor, and food." The finance officer looked at Halson, whose face was getting darker and darker, and his voice became lower and lower. After all, A huge border town, but only this little property, "I am the judicial officer of the border town," "I am the administrative officer of the border town," "I am the reception officer of the border town," after telling the story, Halson discovered that the border town's The official system is an empty shell, because the main affairs and core interests of the border town are controlled by Viscount Elk. These officials are just doing errands, rather than being officials of the border town, they are serving Viscount Elk. Halson scratched his head. It seemed that he had thought about things too complicatedly. In this world where the legal system and democratic consciousness were not very sound, he could not think about problems with the previous thinking. Of course, this was also because of the border town. Prosperity has caused Halson's wrong consciousness. This society is still very backward. After thinking for a while, Halson said, "Now I give you a task. Count the population and land of border towns. I want detailed information." After saying that, he let everyone leave first. In this case, he should also appropriately adjust the management policy for the border town and get rid of these empty officials. Halson met with the powerful people who came to visit and give gifts. , of course, the little dignitaries naturally did not dare to expect to see Harson, left gifts, and left. After some socializing, these big dignitaries were finally sent away. Harson felt a wave of excitement all over his body. Tired, it seems that I am still not suitable for this kind of life. It seems that I still need to find a good politician to replace me. The lord of the border city, who is above ten thousand people and has a noble status, is actually disliked by Harson. It seems haha Halson is indeed only suitable for a salted fish. If you think about it carefully, Halson's territory, the small river valley town, Halson is just a hands-off shopkeeper, and has never managed it seriously, not to mention this huge border town, Halson Sen was thinking about who is suitable to be the city lord. Among his followers, there are some big bosses, such as the wandering knight Bert and the orc assassin Kate. These people are probably okay as military generals and manage border towns. Then He might as well be himself. Suddenly, a figure flashed past, and Harson showed a satisfied smile. This person should be able to do the job. Harson, who had only been in office for one day, was thinking about finding a successor, and he was really salty enough to think of a candidate. Halson happily walked towards the secret room warehouse. Ahri's accounting team should have almost finished counting the treasures. By the time Halson arrived at the secret room warehouse, the counting work had come to an end. Ahri's accounting team , the work efficiency is indeed high. If he had more professionals like this, he would not need to go to such trouble. After a long while, Ahri, who looked excited, took a small notebook and reported to Halson, "Master , according to our statistics, the total value is 910 gold coins, of which 100 million gold coins are in total. The remaining gold jewelry and pearl magic stones are estimated at 130 million gold coins, of course, maybe higher," Ah Li has said since he took over Ha After Ersen's financial management, he naturally understood the value of these things. Two million gold coins? I didn't expect that I could have so much wealth. Thinking about it, the war came quickly. Hal City couldn't help but sigh, Halson took the treasure into the Shennong Space and asked the accounting team to exit the secret room, leaving Ahri and Helen behind. "Master, is there anything else?" Ahri looked at Halson and asked, "Please do the statistics. , each soldier participating in the war will be rewarded with ten gold coins. Among them, low-level warriors will receive fifteen gold coins, intermediate warriors will receive 200 gold coins, and high-level warriors will receive fifty gold coins. As for the people from the Mercenary Guild and Lady Mary, you can directly hand over the gold coins. "Mrs. Mary, just go with President Steve," Halson ordered, thinking to himself, "Just think of it as a New Year's red envelope sent by the boss to the employees. After all, today should be the first day of the first lunar month." "Well, okay." Ahri Sweetly replied,
