That afternoon, a group of ten people returned to the Duchy of Thunder and took a carriage back to Baron Keane's territory.
When they learned that Crick Keane had made a fortune gambling in the Void Mask Amusement Park and had recruited a group of powerful masters, Pastor Maggie of the Church of the God of Aristocracy, who was in charge of this matter, was very unhappy.
Although she was the younger sister of Spencer Smith, she was different from her brother who believed in the God of Knights. This Pastor of the God of Aristocracy was a sinister and vicious woman, full of greedy ambitions.
The reason might be that the brother and sister had different perceptions when they encountered danger in their youth, which made them set up completely different views on life. Or maybe it was simply that they were influenced by the company they kept, or maybe it was simply because of their different talents and natures. In short, Spencer Smith, who was a little proud but still open and aboveboard, and Maggie Smith, who always hid her sinister thoughts under a smile, were two completely opposite people, except for their slightly similar appearance.
Pastor Maggie, as a rising star of the Church of the God of Aristocracy, was currently mainly responsible for infiltrating and seizing power in some small and medium-sized aristocratic territories. The God of Aristocracy could not naturally get the belief of all aristocrats, just as there were many mages in the world who did not believe in the God of Mages and knights who did not believe in the God of Knights. They had a variety of beliefs, some believed in good and evil gods, and some even secretly believed in evil gods and demons … The average morality of the aristocrats was definitely not high. On the contrary, many of them had a very low bottom line, so low that it took a lot of effort to find them.
Well, the same was true of Maggie Smith. She was a typical person who would do anything to achieve her goals. Threats, inducements, bribes, assassinations … As long as she could achieve her goals, she could do any crime without even a little bit of guilt.
She had first sent a female spy secretly trained by the Church of the God of Aristocracy to seduce the chef who had poisoned Krieg Keane. Then, she had placed a curse on this person. She had used both carrot and stick to make this chef, who had served the Keane family for more than ten years, betray his master.
And when she learned that Krieg Keane, who should have died from the poison, had miraculously woken up, she originally planned to let the chef find another opportunity to poison him, but soon found that the originally careless Baron Keane, who knew nothing but reading and drawing, had become shrewd. He even began to conduct an internal investigation, so she decisively activated the curse and killed the chef to silence him.
It was also because of the sudden death of the chef that Crick felt deeply uneasy, and he did not stop to look for help.
Maggie originally planned to send people to ambush Baron Keane on his way back to the territory. However, the spy reported that this lucky guy actually made a fortune in the Void Mask amusement park and recruited a group of masters with extraordinary strength. So she gave up the plan.
But … this matter wasn't over yet!
The beautiful priestess, who always had a gentle smile on her face, grimly crushed the magic crystal that was used to send messages. She put her finger, which had cracked because she used too much force, into her mouth and sucked the blood gently. She smiled coldly.
"There's actually a lucky person among my naive brother's friends!" Her smile was enough to scare timid people to the ground. "Well, let me see how I can 'play' with them …"
Sui did not carefully investigate the crisis and potential enemies that Krieg faced. Now he was busy dealing with a very important matter.
School.
The literacy school in the Void Mask amusement park had been running for a while and had trained many literate talents. But how to arrange these talents was a bit of a headache for Administrator Liv.
There were not many literate people in this world. It was really a bit of a waste to let them go back to farming or do manual work, and it would also hurt their enthusiasm. But how to arrange suitable positions for them? It was not so easy.
Generally speaking, a literate person should get a decent job no matter where he was, be able to support his family relatively easily, and be able to have a certain status in society — of course, this was for civilians. But although the Void Mask amusement park was not small, it was really beyond its ability to arrange a decent job for so many people.
Administrator Liv thought about it and could not think of a suitable way. Finally, she could only submit this problem to His Majesty — the idea of promoting education was his idea, and the follow-up problems should naturally be solved by him.
After receiving Liv's report, Sui Xiong was surprised. He had never expected that there would be a "unemployment" problem in his territory now.
"Isn't it a matter of course to be literate? Why can't literate people farm and do simple work? "he asked in bewilderment.
Liv took some time to explain the problem to him.
When Sui Xiong understood the problem he was facing, he was lost in thought.
Could it be that he thought too simply? Or … the scale of the Void Mask amusement park was not big enough, and it needed to be expanded?
To arrange a place for this group of literate people, and to meet their new position, with the current scale of the Void Mask amusement park, there was certainly no way to provide enough suitable jobs. In this case, the scale of the amusement park was inevitable.
But … the literacy school could continue, but the scale of the amusement park could not continue to expand!
Or could he arrange some people to work in Garth City and Geerteng Territory?
He contacted Ray and Olian.
"Literate people can take on a lot of jobs, but if the number is too large, I can't arrange a place for them here," Ray said. "Of course, there is no problem with the current batch, but what about the future ones? I think Your Majesty should think about it. "
"Isn't your territory also opening a literacy school? Why don't you have such a problem? "
"Because we only teach about a hundred simple words and less than a hundred simple arithmetic," Olian said. Olian said, "From this point of view, it's not the level of literacy. It's just a way for people to get out of ignorance a little. But Your Majesty, it is different. I heard that the school in your territory teaches the complete common language and vertical calculation, which has completely reached the level of literacy … To be honest, the cultural level of most nobles is actually like this, and many people are not as good as them! "
"… You mean, I have educated them too well?"
"It should be so," Ray advised. "I think Your Majesty, it is better to lower the education standard. There is no need to cultivate such a large number of cultural talents. Such talents are useful, but it is not good to have too many of them …"
After the communication, Sui Xiong was a little distressed.
Although the immediate problem had been solved, could it be that his idea was really wrong?
To be honest, the things taught in the literacy school of the Void Mask amusement park were only at the level of the second or third grade before his time travel. They had not even been taught multiplication and division. How could they become intellectuals like this?
The standard of "intellectuals" in this world was too low!
Although he complained, he still had to find a way to solve the problem.
So he gathered a few of his experienced and knowledgeable friends to discuss this issue seriously …
