Chapter 80 I Want to Be a Robber (Please Read! Please Recommend!)

Chapter 80 I Want to Be a Robber The main purpose of Bruno's construction of the Idar Road was to make Idar a must-go route for merchants traveling between the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel.

However, although the concrete road is easier to walk on, there will definitely be some stupid businessmen who would walk on the old muddy roads in order to save time.

This is not a good phenomenon!

Therefore, we must curb this trend as soon as possible!

If the merchants did not settle in Idar, where would Bruno go to make ends meet to make up for the cost of building the road?

Therefore, for the current Idar territory, building a standardized and high-quality bandit team has become an urgent matter.

Only by building the bandit team of Idar into an internationally first-class and nationally renowned bandit group can the merchants traveling between the two countries be persuaded to settle down in Idar City.

After all, Bruno felt that he was still an honest and kind person, exuding good virtues from head to toe.

Therefore, as long as the merchants spend money in Idar City, it will be regarded as a protection fee paid to Bruno, and Bruno will do his best to protect them from being attacked by bandits.

What a perfect solution!

But if there are still merchants who do not listen to the advice and insist on taking a shortcut in the hope of getting away with it, then they will be in trouble. The robbers in Idar will definitely rob all the goods of these merchants and then sell them in the shops in the southern city of Idar.

Bruno has even thought of the name of the store, which is "Zhuan Zhuan Second-hand Trading Center".

When Sam Layton heard his master the Earl's plan to make a fortune, he was immediately amazed.

My master is truly a talented player!

"I just don't know how to form this bandit group that the master needs?"

"For the time being, we will recruit personnel from the standing army and form a force of 50 people. However... this time, we will definitely recruit elite soldiers from the standing army, and we will pay special attention to the soldiers' ideological and political performance!"

Ideological and political courses, or ideological and political courses, have now become a compulsory course for every Idar soldier, and Bruno has placed them on an equal footing with daily training.

Especially after the first batch of paper was officially produced, a large part of it was allocated to the standing army.

Therefore, today's Idar standing army usually conducts daily training in the morning and afternoon, and after dinner, they gather around the campfire to listen to the standing army's instructors' ideological and political lectures.

The time before breakfast every morning is used by soldiers to study cultural courses, which are the simplest reading and writing.

Bruno did not expect these soldiers to be able to speak eloquently, because they were just soldiers, and their most important task was to protect the Idar Territory.

But Bruno absolutely did not want these regular army soldiers, whom he had placed high hopes on, to be a group of illiterate people.

At the very least, you should be able to understand the simplest written documents such as commands, regulations and notices!

The ideological and political courses are designed to make the soldiers of the standing army understand why they are fighting and what they can get from the war.

In the past, Idar's soldiers really only wanted the high military salary of three gold coins per year, but now, under the premise of full payment of military salary and under the influence of ideological and political courses, they seem to have other things to pursue.

They seemed to understand that in addition to military pay, there were more important things worth guarding.

For example...their families, friends behind them, and their comrades around them.

Unlike other people in Idar, these soldiers of the standing army are more able to experience the changes in all aspects of Idar at the first opportunity.

The increase in military pay and the improvement in living conditions, both in terms of food and living environment, are things they can feel personally.

In addition, in ideological and political courses, teachers often explain the purpose of various projects built in Idar County. Therefore, they admire Count Idar even more.

I'm afraid... only under the rule of Count Bruno Stuart of Idar can I live such a good life...

It is precisely because of this that the soldiers' sense of belonging to Idar Territory has been qualitatively improved...

The reason why Bruno attaches great importance to the ideological and political performance of this group of "robbers" is because they cannot always be robbers.

As long as the reputation of the Idar bandits is made known and the merchants along the way are made aware of the risks of taking remote roads, most of them can be transferred to other positions.

The experience of being a bandit will undoubtedly greatly enhance the comprehensive qualities of these Idar people in all aspects.

"The results of the ideological and political course?" Sam Layton looked confused.

"Please inform everyone that a political and ideological exam will be arranged for the soldiers of the standing army tomorrow afternoon. All soldiers who rank in the top 100 in the political and ideological exam can voluntarily sign up and we will select the best candidates for admission."

"But sir, if we recruit soldiers under the guise of recruiting bandits..."

"Are you a fool?" Bruno pretended to be angry and said, "Who would shout about it to the whole world before becoming a robber and doing bad things? Do you think you are Kaito Kidd?"

"Phantom Thief...Kid?" Sam Layton looked at his lord earl with a puzzled look.

The master has been saying some strange words lately...

"That's not the point! Anyway... can't you change your words a little? For example, you want to select people to carry out secret missions or something like that..."

"I understand..." Sam replied quickly.

Sam was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Bruno again.

"Wait... When the soldiers are selected and find out that they are going to become bandits, how are you going to explain it to them?"

“Ah, this…”

Bruno said with a look of regret: "So, after completing the recruitment, you must explain clearly to the soldiers that although they have temporarily become bandits in name, this is only a way for them to protect Idar. Because those they rob are all black-hearted merchants from the Kingdom of Basel, with selfish blood flowing in their bones. These merchants are unwilling to enter Idar City, and are even more unwilling to contribute to the development of Idar. This is extremely shameful! The goods looted by the soldiers will become the property of Idar, and will be used to improve the living standards of Idar residents..."

"At the same time, in addition to the most basic military pay, these soldiers who act as bandits can also receive performance commissions based on the amount of property they rob, and receive more monetary rewards."
