After breakfast, the city lord's mansion sent people to pick up Alan and the other seven people, leaving only Su Qing, Xiao Yileisi, and the two dragons Hong Huohuo.
"Let's go, let's get on with our business!"
Su Qing began by leading the two to visit the bishop and priest, expressing gratitude for their previous righteous words, and engaging in a friendly and cordial exchange.
Afterwards, he returned to his residence and loaded the gold coins he had obtained through extortion into his vehicle.
The people of Gaosuo City are relatively wealthy, and this time they extorted more gold coins than they did in Gri City.
After finishing everything, Alan and the others returned from the city lord's mansion and handed over their rewards.
Su Qing praised them a few times, then urged them to set off.
After finishing his business here, he needed to hurry back to his territory. Although the territory had been able to develop normally during his absence, there were many things that those guys simply wouldn't think of or dare to do unless he brought them up.
This is certainly a good thing for Su Qing.
He doesn't need a second brain in his territory; everything must be done according to his will.
He has no intention of establishing a nation; the territorial model will continue until it becomes his divine kingdom.
Su Qing still has great ambitions.
However, he dares not touch upon matters of faith at present. In terms of suppressing heresy, the temple and the Vatican have the same approach: it is better to kill 100,000 innocent people than to let one guilty person go free.
Once this red line is crossed, the old priest and the fat bishop who are currently on good terms with him will definitely be the first to turn against him, and it is even possible that the center of the continent will send powerful figures across the Chaos Territory to destroy him.
If that were the case, he would have no choice but to take Hong Huohuo back to Dragon Island for refuge.
On the way back, there were no more trials or detours, but because there were several carriages, it still took several days to travel.
Upon returning to the castle, Su Qing immediately took the documents delivered by Little Mary.
These are the major events that happened in the territory while he was away, but they were all good news.
As for the academy, nearly two hundred of the first batch of students have already broken through to become official knights, and the others are also at the point where they can break through at any time.
The Elf Plantation has finally yielded some results, with the first batch of mutated seeds planted daily having already produced preliminary test data.
Two of the staple crops saw their yields increase by five times and eight times, respectively.
In addition, there are some magical crops that have been researched. Although they have little magical energy, they can be grown on a large scale.
In addition, the resources sent by the temple and the papacy have arrived and are all stored in the warehouse. They are all of very high quality and in extremely large quantities.
After reading the record of the resource value and quantity on the paper, Su Qing couldn't help but drool.
Two big-time dog owners!
After reviewing these documents, Su Qing took out some paper and began to formally formulate the development direction of the territory.
Firstly, regarding currency, Su Qing is always most sensitive to money.
Gold, silver, and copper were used as the basic currencies, and templates were used to standardize their quality and size.
The gold coins come in two sizes: a large gold coin worth 1,000 yuan and a small gold coin worth 500 yuan.
The silver coins come in three sizes, with values of 100, 50, and 20 respectively.
The copper coins also come in three sizes, with values of 1, 5, and 10.
The obverse side will bear the value of the currency, while the reverse side will always feature Su Qing's portrait.
Furthermore, Dragon Territory only accepts these currencies for transactions, and merchants who come to Dragon Territory to do business must exchange their currency for Dragon Territory's currency with the official authorities.
Su Qing originally intended to use paper money, but although the technology was up to par, it was not easy to use paper as currency instead of relatively more valuable precious metals. Those merchants probably would not accept it at all.
At most, it would circulate within the Dragon Territory, so Su Qing temporarily abandoned the idea.
However, the mint needs to be built as soon as possible!
Su Qing approved this task and listed it as the number one priority task. The next priority task would naturally be the number two priority task.
The four affiliated colleges will arrive soon, and the next round of enrollment is imminent.
A well-developed education system is essential.
The stories about magicians and knights are too simplistic, and most of the students in those departments are illiterate.
A sound education system should not have such loopholes.
They started school at age six and received six consecutive years of basic cultural education.
This is called primary school.
Upon graduation from elementary school, students will be tested and divided into five categories based on their talents (tentative): Advanced Culture, Knight, Magic, Alchemist, and Biology!
Each department is further divided into three classes: beginner, intermediate, and advanced, with an estimated study period of nine years.
As for the university that follows, Su Qing has no idea yet, mainly because there is no one in the territory who can teach there.
In addition, there are vocational schools to supplement the curriculum, offering courses in cooking, hairdressing and beauty, machine operation, carpentry, blacksmithing, and more.
A range of talents and professions needed for the development of the territory.
Vocational school requires five years of study!
...
Although the academy cannot play a significant role in the short term, the territory's strength will surge once the first batch of graduates arrive.
As orders were issued, the entire territory began to function.
According to the plan, a primary school will be built in each small town, and junior high school classes will be built in the two large towns.
He planned to expand the original location of the academy, aiming to build an unprecedented megacity.
In addition to the academy, there were also training grounds established to promote all-round development in both academics and martial arts.
Minting workshops began construction rapidly, and conscription notices were posted all over the streets and alleys.
From this day forward, all men who are 20 years of age or older must serve three years of military service.
In addition, military factories also began construction, and large quantities of armor and weapons began to be manufactured.
