Sapphire Grand Duchy follows the system of the Iron Ridge Kingdom.
The knights are headed by the knight master, and the officials are headed by the advisor.
Gortai, as the tutor of Liszt, was appointed by the earl to follow Liszt to Flower Town after the feudal system. What he wanted was the position of consultant.
After all, no matter how nice the tutor says, it can't change that he is a member of the servants.
The same goes for Marcus. He is also a family teacher, but his status is still Retainer Knight, belonging to the servant order. In fact, Gortai himself is a noble, even though he is the lowest Baronet Knight, and he is not even a noble, he is just a relatively well-off group among the common people.
"Sir, are you going to grant me the position of consultant to Flower Town?" Gortai still can't believe it. He has been here for half a year and Liszt has never mentioned it as a consultant. He has almost given up.
Unexpectedly, the joy came from heaven, and he was caught off guard and was appointed as a consultant.
"What's wrong, is it possible that Teacher Gortai doesn't want to be the teacher?"
"Yes, of course I am willing, how could I not be willing, haha." Gortai was full of energy and beaming, "I am ready to serve you at any time and at any time. When managing Flower Town, I must practice it personally. I will definitely be able to live up to my responsibilities as a consultant and will never slack off at all."
Liszt said, "I have noticed your recent work attitude. You are my tutor and I trust you. Flower Town is my only fiefdom and the basis for my pursuit of glory. Its importance is self-evident. I hope you can take it seriously."
Gortai put away his bright smile, put his left hand on his chest, and solemnly performed the knight's salute. "As you wish!"
"Flower Town is in charge of you, my advisor."
"I am willing to serve you!"
There was no grand appointment ceremony. Flower Town was just a small town in the countryside. In this simple way, a consultant who was equivalent to the head of a town was elected.
Strictly speaking, the consultant sounds better than the political officer at best. Gortai's actual power has not increased much - the consultant can appoint town officials, which sounds powerful, but the castle is next door, and it is impossible to avoid the appointment of any official without Liszt.
However, the income has increased significantly.
His original salary of 10 Copper Coin a day has increased to 20 Copper Coin a day. With the increased income, he can buy a lot of extra fine wine, or buy some furniture for his and Freya's small family.
"Congratulations, consultant!" Isaiah and others congratulated Gortai one after another.
Gortai was high-spirited and laughing, "For the sake of Lord Liszt Baron, for the favor of Knight's Glory, and for the future of all of us, let us build Flower Town together to be more prosperous and wealthy!"
People feel refreshed when happy events occur.
Gortai, who served as a consultant, devoted himself to work with full enthusiasm in the next two days. In addition to managing specific affairs, he did not forget Liszt's instructions and made a coordinating arrangement for Flower Town's future planning. To this end, he made a request at the dinner.
"Sir, I am planning to conduct another town census. No, it should be called a town resource census. First, clear out the farmland area and plan the agricultural structure of Flower Town. Once the five hundred serfs arrive, we can quickly arrange for the serfs to farm. Secondly, we will investigate the sales situation of the caravan products and rationally arrange the craftsmen to run the shops."
He waved a small fork, ignoring noble etiquette, and said passionately, "More and more caravans are coming to and from the town. Flower Caravan and Thorn Caravan can sell the town's products. Our business district will soon prosper, bringing a lot of gold coins to the castle!"
"Very good idea, consultant Gortai, please make this plan more detailed and give it to me for review."
"Yes, my lord."
Outside the town administrative office.
Kosto is pacing back and forth. From time to time, civilians passing by greet him, and he responds to them one by one. Now Kosto is a celebrity in the town. The source of his fame is not that he was the first captain of Flower Town's first ship, Flower, but his tireless attitude of seeking.
Young sons from almost every household have been attracted by him. "Young man, you have great ideas, learn sailing from me!"
Even those young bachelors were attracted by him. "Flower Town There are more men than women, so you can't get a wife. Why don't you learn sailing from me? There are countless women in the outside world. After one trip, you can marry a hard-working and capable woman with a big ass and give you many sons."
Most people sneered at Kosto's solicitation.
The "continental complex" brought by the nobles makes the common people with narrow vision have a natural fear and ignorance of the sea.
Therefore, after hitting the wall countless times, Kosto only managed to recruit ten bachelors and twelve teenagers to learn sailing with him and become sailor apprentices. And this was free teaching. If he wanted to charge tuition, no one would come, and he would have to subsidize several tons of lunch from time to time.
If the lord hadn't paid him a fixed salary for teaching the knight team, he wouldn't have even received an apprentice.
Kosto was not discouraged by his longing for the sea. He was still enthusiastic about training these sailor apprentices of various ages.
But in the past two days, none of the sailor apprentices has come.
Kosto is anxious and angry.
Ta-ta-ta.
The horses' hooves stepped on the gravel road, making a crisp sound.
He immediately greeted him, and the town's consultant came back. "Sir Consultant!"
"This is Captain Kosto, what's the matter?" Gortai looked dusty, and his face was a little purple from the sun.
"My apprentices are all going to cut down trees. Sir, they need to learn navigation instead of being assigned to do such unimportant things as cutting down trees."
"I'm sorry Kosto. Cutting down trees is not an insignificant matter. This is what the lord has personally explained. It is related to the future development of the entire Flower Town. Your navigation career can wait for a few days. You don't need to go to sea anyway. Just treat it as a holiday for yourself. I don't have time to take a holiday."
Gortai doesn't pay much attention to Kosto, and just wants to send him away - the small town can't farm, so there is no time for sailing.
However, he underestimated Kosto's determination. After saying that "the lord hopes to develop the navigation industry", Kosto became obsessed with Gortai. Wherever Gortai went, he would follow him, even if Gortai went home. Gortai was forced to agree to him.
"I can transfer your twelve young sailor apprentices and let them continue to learn navigation with you, but the adult apprentices must chop down trees."
"Okay!" Kosto responded quickly, he was satisfied with being able to earn twelve young apprentices.
"One more thing, the teenagers helped at the tree-cutting site, one Copper Coin for two days. You need to pay for this part of the loss."
"Oh God, I don't have any money!"
"Are you letting teenagers not make money? Their parents will teach you how to be a good person, Kosto."
"Navigation is for the glory of the lord, so the town should just sit back and watch? The town should pay this money!"
After another round of rogue wrangling, Gortai finally agreed that the town would subsidize the wages lost by the apprentices during the logging battle.
Only then did Kosto board Flower with great satisfaction.
Facing the twelve apprentices, he shouted loudly, "When the tide rises, Flower will sail to the future dock. We will spend the next few days around the dock!"
It's a new week, and I'm asking for recommendation votes from my friends~
