The next day, when the town hall held a formal banquet to entertain the "big customers" who signed the orders, the priests divided into a dozen teams and went to visit the surrounding villages.

Westham is the first foreign territory touched by the national team, and the village of Westham is the area where the national team has made the greatest efforts to explore, recognize, and adjust the governance methods; For the priests of Prosperity Church, it is also the place with the most reference learning value.

The mountain village that Charlie Rex and Ji Tang visited once was so impoverished that only adult men and women who needed to go out would have shame clothing. White-robed ascetics with chains on their backs stepped on bare feet with gravel, mud and The flexible weeds form the terraced potato fields on the ridges, and the villagers were amazed and shocked to hear the stories of how they circled the fields on the hillside and planted potatoes.

Tuttle Joe once squatted in the courtyard with earthen walls and listened to the village women through the wall to talk about the backward countryside where the lack of sanitary supplies caused many inconveniences. The holy priests sat around the small farmyard still surrounded by earthen walls, with their backs to The air-dried corn cobs are hung on the dirt wall, and the nervous and shy peasant woman with a red face introduces how the villagers work in the paper mill not far from the village, and how the villagers develop and utilize it under the leadership of the undead technicians sent by the town. The wild bamboo forests on the mountain get rich through hard work.

Joyce Andre was shocked to see the large-scale free-range chickens and ducks in the artificially maintained reeds in the Lakeside Village of Horseshoe Lake, which was once invaded and robbed by the Sokri caravan...

On the third day of the winter celebration, the city hall sent someone to grandly take the visiting group to the city. The Holy Priest Cavalry as the escort of the visiting group did not follow, but stayed in Westham to continue the visit and study tour.

When the veteran cadres of the national team who took over Zhao Zhenzhen's work and served as the consul of Innad Licheng took the rich Shiga nobles to visit the second-hand clothing refurbishment factory, the holy priests unloaded their weapons and equipment and dressed as ordinary people. Under the guidance of a group of cadres and clerks from the Town Hall of Tem, they have a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of a series of policies that Westham has implemented in the past two years.

Two days after the winter celebration, the Shiga nobles who had signed many orders finally remembered their visit responsibilities, and expressed the hope that they could get knowledge sharing from undead agricultural experts on farming. Written materials prepared in advance.

At this time, Westm had a rough understanding of the governance line of the undead regime, and the holy priest cavalry team inevitably had internal disputes.

In the large hotel group vacated by the town hall for guests, a total of [-] holy priests, including soldiers and non-commissioned officers, removed sofas, coffee tables and other furniture, sat on the ground, and held an internal discussion meeting in the style of a holy priest.

The Orthodox Sect on the Nabalon Continent, as the sect’s main foreign combat force, the apologists and holy priests, all those who serve as non-commissioned officers and military officers usually must have the experience of night watchmen, and the Prosperity Church is no exception.

Lieutenant Joyce Andre, two sergeant adjutants, and eight sergeant sergeant officers have all served as night watchmen. Compared with ordinary soldiers, they have more thoughts on the governance policies adopted by the undead regime.

Like Joyce Andre, there are three non-commissioned officers who support the redistribution of the excess wealth owned by the nobles so that they can better practice the teachings of the goddess of prosperity.

There are four people who oppose depriving nobles of their property and believe that the wealth accumulated by nobles for generations should also be protected.

The remaining three people are all in a state of entanglement and cannot express their position clearly.

Brother Lowell, who was once the commander-in-chief of the Holy Priest Cavalry, did not participate in the discussion of the cavalry, but only sat among the soldiers and listened.

After sitting together on the ground in the hall like sitting around the campfire to discuss in the past, the non-commissioned officers who held different opinions spoke one after another around the center of the dispute.

Rowell, who was sitting in the crowd, was not happy with the declaration of the supporters, nor was he annoyed by the resistance of the opponents. He just smiled and watched these young people express their generosity.

The youth of the Church, who expressed their willingness to engage in the debate, both for and against it, had accepted the possibility of targeting the aristocrats who monopolized their wealth too much.

Those who completely deny this possibility, including his great-great-grandson Lance who will succeed the viscount in a few years or more than ten years, will just walk away angrily without discussing it. interest of.

The two parties in the debate can only be regarded as passing through Westem, and the opinions they put forward are all immature, and naturally it is difficult to convince others. They have run out of words in less than half an hour, and have fallen into endless verbal disputes .

Joyce Andre got up to stop the two sides who almost turned the discussion into a quarrel, and said to Rowell who was sitting among the soldiers: "Criator, why don't you tell us what you think?"

Brother Lowell nodded with a smile, looked at the non-commissioned officers on both sides who held different opinions, and said, "Actually, both of your views are reasonable. In fact, the undead consul will respect all those who accumulate wealth by legitimate means, regardless of commoner or noble."

Seeing that both parties looked over in shock, Brother Lowell continued: "In November last year, the Department of Public Security, the Department of Government Affairs, and the Department of Commerce and Trade of the Innatrix City Hall jointly handled the case, and investigated the public security cases and land issues in the past 30 years. There are more than 300 people involved in the investigation of transaction documents, labor services and transaction contracts that have caused disputes but have not been investigated. Among them, more than [-] people are either nobles themselves, or housekeepers, deacons, and servants acting on behalf of nobles. .”

"By the end of December, [-] noble families had been established by Innad, and [-] of them had been seized and confiscated in whole or in part. Their titles were revoked, their fiefs were recovered, and those involved were convicted and sentenced to prison."

"In these fifteen households, those who have not been involved in the case will not be punished, and the property acquired by the family members not involved in the case will be retained by themselves. The servants under the name are re-registered and they are willing to continue to work for the original owner. They can also continue to retain. "

"For factories in the Inadeli Beicheng factory area, if the case is serious and the equity is chaotic, the Department of Commerce and Trade and the Department of Government Affairs will jointly check and re-determine the equity; if the business content is legal, the equity is clear, and the tax is paid normally, it can continue to operate."

"Industries inside and outside the urban area, including workshops, workshops, mines, factories, farms, pastures, horse farms, etc., where the origin is clear, and have not been robbed of farmers' land, and have not been involved in serious public security cases, they will be retained after review by the Department of Commerce and Trade and the Department of Public Security. .”

After a pause, Brother Lowell smiled and said: "The above, all the properties that the city hall considers legal and can continue to operate, regardless of whether they belong to the noble family's property, are protected by the undead regime, and no individual or group can invade—— This is what the undead consul personally declared in the newspaper in late December last year."

The two parties in the debate were greatly shocked. Not only did they no longer look angry, but each fell into deep thought.

"The undead regime protects the legal property of all the citizens in the territory, and this citizen includes everyone." Brother Lowell said enviously, "It is not only the opinions and feelings of the nobles that can be valued, nor is it that being a noble, If you have wealth, you must be knocked down; only for things, not people, this is the consistent style of Tarantan's undead, which I am very yearning for."

"The undead of Tarantan will not grant privileges to individual human beings because of their noble status, nor will they ignore or abandon individual human beings because of their humble status. I think this is something we, as humans, especially need to learn seriously."

The ascetic monk in white robe sitting next to Brother Lowell nodded vigorously.

More soldiers looked at the monk with shining eyes.

Joyce Andre, who had personally experienced the upheaval in his hometown, didn't think it was right to allow the nobles to monopolize a large amount of wealth. It was just because he was the commander of the cavalry that it was not convenient for the next discussion. Seeing that everyone accepted Rowell The monk stood up and expressed his opinion: "If it is just that one nobleman robs another nobleman's property and enjoys the robbed wealth alone, then such behavior is of course no different from a robber, and it is not worthy of our holy priests' support, monk Not to mention believers who advocate the goddess of prosperity to do such stupid things."

"How the wealth recovered from the Rhine nobles by the undead of Tarantan is used and controlled is the experience we need to seriously understand and refer to. This is my personal opinion."

The non-commissioned officers nodded one after another, and one of the non-commissioned officers who had been thinking about it since Brother Lowell spoke said: "The undead of Tarantan organize civilians to learn knowledge, train the militia, and discover civil servants from among the civilians. It takes a lot of people to work together. What can only be accomplished by working together, I think, should we also seek more people to accomplish this with us?"

Immediately, another sergeant said: "There is no need to worry about this. As long as the domestic priests know that Brother Lowell is leading us to do things that are more in line with the teachings of the goddess, they will definitely become our companions."

Another non-commissioned officer struggled and said: "But in my opinion, the undead souls of Tarantan can only make changes like this after they directly ruled the Innad and Adler collars. How can we persuade the domestic lords to follow our rules? What do you think?"

"The lords of Innadri and Adler are not undead, we just need our people to be consuls like the undead."

"How can it be so easy? Where in the country is the consul not a person trusted by the lord?"

"Hey, I said, do you forget who the lords of Innadri and Adler supported up there?"

"This... is it going to start a war in the country?"

"If just waging small territorial wars can make our country a better place, why not?"

Brother Lowell looked at this group of young holy priests who became more active after their doubts were answered, and even brought up the idea of ​​launching a domestic war.

In fact, he did not have much confidence in his ability to win the response of the holy priests, especially since his idea of ​​revising the line of prospering the church was so "radical".

Before the visiting group and the priests arrived, Lowell, who was worried about gains and losses, reluctantly revealed his heart to Ji Tang after struggling for many days, hoping to get Ji Tang's advice.

After Ji Tang listened carefully to his worries, he analyzed it for Brother Lowell very seriously.

The mayor of the undead believes that the middle and lower members of the Orthodox sect are the group that can best accept the cognition that "all men are created equal" and the Tarantan's undead governance strategy.

Brother Lowell, who was in it, suddenly realized when he heard these words.

For the middle and lower class members of most Orthodox sects on the Nabalon continent, developing believers, maintaining and expanding the parish is the greatest responsibility.

And the believers in the diocese, no matter how high or low, are equally important to the members of the religious sect who believe in the righteous god. A religious donation is only more important to the senior priest who has the right to control the donation.

Compared with the high-ranking legion officers and senior priests, the middle- and lower-level clergy will respond more actively to the prayers of civilian believers-when the vampire incident happened, they personally sent the Sapir brothers who were victimized by vampires to Innatrix. The one who came was also a pastor of the Gold Coin Church.

Brother Rowell let the holy priests discuss all the possibilities in a whimsical manner, and then smiled and gave the answer he had considered for a long time: "We don't need to rush back what we have learned from the undead regime. , Pursue the goal too eagerly, but it is easy to make us farther away from the goal.”

"My idea is that we can use the Lowell family's fief as an experimental site, and try to apply what we have learned to the viscount in the west of the Principality..."

To carry out reforms in the Principality of Shiga, internal wars will happen sooner or later, and Rowell is well aware of this.

Yang, who has an army of [-] undead and has legendary strength, is cautious in his actions in the Kingdom of Rhine, step by step, which is enough for Rowell, who was watching the whole process, to understand this behavior of completely changing the social structure from bottom to top How dangerous.

But Rowell, who had already thought through the consequences, was unwilling to choose to give up.

What he needs to do is to let the vast majority of the citizens of the Shiga Principality and the middle and lower class members who account for the majority of the church see the reform To gain the support and inclination of the vast majority of citizens and church members as much as possible.

As long as there are more people who yearn for change than those who oppose it, the path he has identified will surely go on.
