Chapter 585: His Majesty Rand, What Allen Saw and Heard
"Your Majesty Rand." Bolan chuckled, as if he had forgotten the embarrassing incident that happened when he accidentally switched back to Ellie's body.
Today it’s Bolan again.
Now Berlan has less time to control Ellie's body.
However, Bolan said that the most troublesome part of the White Kingdom's affairs has been dealt with for the most part.
I will come to the holiday resort to visit Rand when I have free time.
All I can say is that Bolan is not the kind of person who is timid. Bolan seems to be very good at facing problems.
Since things with Rand must go on slowly, Bolan does not intend to delay or escape. She is already preparing to meet Rand with her own body.
To be honest, Rand is still looking forward to it.
Rand kissed Berlan who used Ellie's body, and he also kissed Ellie who used Berlan's body.
But for Berlan who used Berlan's body.
Rand hadn't touched it yet.
Now that things with Bolan have developed to this point, we can look forward to what will happen next.
But the priority now is political issues.
As Bolan said, "Your Majesty, Rand."
The great nobles, ministers and king of the Frost Moon Kingdom all agreed to support Rand in establishing the kingdom.
So now Rand is preparing to establish a kingdom.
There isn’t much to refer to when it comes to the process of building a kingdom, but it does require careful thought.
In the past, when humans had not yet conquered too much unowned land, they only needed to lead a group of people to occupy a piece of barren land, then divide it up and establish a kingdom.
But now it's different.
Nowadays, most of the arable land or land with other value in the world already has an owner.
There hasn't been a new kingdom in this world for hundreds of years.
So the process must be well prepared.
Maybe they will even have to use some legal claims that are now treated as waste paper.
For example, what kind of antiquities were dug out from the ruins of some place, and then the long history of the Nicholas family was discovered? Then, after interpreting the antiquities, it was discovered that the large area of the Bolen Kingdom occupied by Rand had been the land of the Nicholas family since ancient times.
It was the Kingdom of Bolen that seized the lands of the Nicholas family, and now Rand has taken them back and established his own kingdom.
This is of course just nonsense.
There wasn't even any Nicholas family before.
Of course, Rand could also choose to directly announce that the Nicholas family conquered the land of the Kingdom of Bolen and that Rand was a great conqueror.
Both approaches have their pros and cons.
The former follows somewhat the inherent aristocratic basis.
The latter is actually also a part of the aristocratic spirit, but relatively speaking, it is more arrogant and pioneering.
After thinking and discussing, Rand chose the latter.
After establishing the kingdom, Rand also planned to do some unconventional things, so the legal principles of establishing the kingdom should not continue any inheritance.
The history of the Nicholas family began with Rand.
Winter of the 338th year of the Holy Calendar.
The great conqueror Rand's boots broke through the bronze gate of the capital of the Kingdom of Bolen.
Starting from this day.
Nearly half of the land in the Kingdom of Bolen will belong to Rand.
Go north to Crescent Moon Ridge.
Go south to the endless ocean.
The Moon Kingdom was thus established.
The Moon Kingdom will establish the Torch Church's Novice Faction and the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and Health as the main sects.
That is the state religion.
As part of the political system, these two churches will have a comprehensive impact on the country's politics, economy and culture.
at the same time.
The king of the Moon Kingdom must concurrently serve as the chief of the Church of the Goddess of Harvest and Health and the chief of the Novice Sect of the Torch Church.
That is to say, the king of the Moon Kingdom must have the highest and absolute political and religious power.
At the same time, although the Moon Kingdom will still implement the fiefdom system, the nobles of the Moon Kingdom must have a church identity and be subject to the laws of the church.
Regarding the fact that the King of the Moon Kingdom must serve as the head of the nascent sect of the Torch Church, he needs to go back and discuss it with Bishop Kahn and Karin of the Torch Church.
This is more complicated because the newborn faction of the Torch Church has become powerful.
Now the Torch Church has split into three factions. The Old Holy City was attacked by the Saint, lost its leader and is now half-dead. The New Holy City was attacked by Rand and the Novice Faction, and now its true strength has been exposed.
The Newborn Faction, relying on the north, has gradually become the strongest faction after gradually beginning to recover tributes from various countries and building a base in the Dukedom of the Moon.
And with Rand's support, destroying or conquering other factions and restoring the glory of the Torch Church may be a matter of the near future.
From now on, it no longer needs to be called the Newborn Sect, it can be called the Torch Church.
In the future there may be only one Torch Church.
Therefore, matters related to the Torch Church still need to be discussed in detail.
As for the issue of the aristocratic political system.
Rand was also hesitant.
A direct leap into politics is impossible, and Rand himself would not accept it.
But Rand does hope to start some changes. In this world where supernatural powers exist, Rand and the top leaders of the Sanctuary are still exploring how the political system should develop.
In addition to requiring all nobles to have a religious identity, Rand can also choose to set up religious nobles and secular nobles.
Govern the country in a balance between the two.
But considering that there would inevitably be considerable conflict in this situation, Rand finally decided to unilaterally require that all nobles have religious identities.
You can completely not participate in religious affairs, but you must participate.
Where the secular aristocracy system could not control the nobility, Rand could influence the nobility through the religious system.
This combination of secular and religious systems is the national political system envisioned by Rand.
This system is actually quite modern.
I hope that this complex system of religion and secularism, which can be considered a model of integration of politics and religion, can bring better results.
Then there is the issue of enfeoffment.
The high-ranking officials of the Sanctuary are probably considered members of the royal family. Tanel is probably a duke, and Fenris is probably an earl.
Afterwards, Sesserai, Little Tata, Talan, Shasa and others will all be enfeoffed.
And on the religious side, Ranta and Chad.
As for the elves, Vanilla, Wind Chime, and even Nidhogg may be divided in the future.
As for Marcus' aunt Eleanor, Marcus said that she might become the king of the Frost Moon Kingdom in the future, so he asked Rand to pay attention to the impact.
As for scientific research, Ayesha wants to ask her opinion. As for the dwarf prince, he probably can't escape the fate of returning to inherit the throne, so now he just needs to use his abilities, and Rand will make a profit.
In terms of system, Rand's definition of a country is an eclectic multicultural country.
Under the rule of the royal family, multiple races are allowed to appear, such as Naga, Tauren, Centaur, Elves, Dwarves and so on.
This is basically the overall architecture.
As for the acceptance, construction and development of the land of the Kingdom of Bollen, as well as the issue of local fiefdoms, those all need to be done slowly and gradually.
In short, Rand will try its best to consider the current situation and subsequent developments, strive for stability and avoid drinking poison to quench thirst.
Therefore, the current plans are still drafts and will be fine-tuned after investigation and discussion.
But that's the general direction.
Acquiring so much land all at once was very difficult and troublesome for Rand. Now that he had established the kingdom, he could no longer exploit Marcus, and he was suddenly back to the difficult situation of having to handle all the work alone.
Rand even wanted to restart the Archon system, that is, to let Lysa or Ellie serve as Archon and serve as another core to handle national politics.
…
Allen was captured.
Allen's name appeared on Rand's desk before, but Rand just glanced at it and walked away.
After all, Alan is just an apprentice knight.
However, the spy did recognize Allen, so Allen was treated a little better, and the spy took him to find the child of Allen's friend.
When carrying out their missions, the spies suppress all personal emotions, focus on the mission, and are ruthless.
But now that the war is over, these spies lurking in the city of King Boren can go home and start their normal and safe work. Now is the time to do some of the things that they felt guilty about before.
These spies had promised Allen to send the child away, but they just knocked the child out and hid him.
Now they took Alan to find the child.
Fortunately, the child is still alive.
After seeing Allen, the child immediately rushed over and hugged Allen's trouser legs and refused to let go.
The child also looked at the spies with a wary look.
The spies smiled at each other, and then said that Alan could just take the child to Rand's department to register. Rand has always had preferential policies for prisoners with children.
For example, nutritional subsidies for children.
However, there will be supervision, and if children are abused, they will be punished.
None of these systems are particularly robust, but Rand is certainly making progress.
Alan is now a prisoner knight with a facial injury.
As for why his face was injured, it was naturally because he was pressed to the ground and bruised when trying to stop the new King of Bolen.
Alan followed the spy's advice and took his child to register. He was then assigned housing. If he didn't have children, they would live in a collective. If he had children, he would have a small thatched hut that was slightly better.
It’s not that Rand cannot provide them with better conditions, but directly providing them with better conditions is not only not conducive to their hard work, but also unfair to others.
In the sanctuary, you need to work hard to get better housing and food, otherwise you can only survive by not starving or freezing.
When the parents are at work, some veterans will provide group childcare services.
This kind of child care service can actually be considered work-learning to a certain extent, such as taking children for military training, or taking children for business attempts, or selling newspapers.
Smart children may also receive education in advance or go to places with better futures such as blacksmith shops.
He does not treat everyone equally. The children of nobles will receive better education and better development.
Rand will also give ordinary people opportunities, otherwise Rand knows very well what will happen in the future.
After leaving his child in custody, Allen reported to the labor camp.
The commander of the labor camp also seemed to be a military man and could not speak any official language. It was obvious that he wanted to make some point, but he soon found that he could not.
The superior directly told them: "Do your job well. If you are too tired, report to me. I will personally check whether the workload is unreasonable. If there is no problem, obey the order. If you obey the order, you will have food to eat and clothes to wear."
It can be heard that the superior is indeed not very good at reasoning. His words are very direct, but also easy to understand.
Then we assign tasks and start working.
Now their job is to repair the broken Royal City of Borun.
These prisoners are normally responsible for carrying building materials and assisting with some simple construction. More advanced construction projects that require construction experience and knowledge will be completed by specialized people.
Life in labor reform is still quite hard, but the food provided is good, compared to the holiday resorts I have seen before... Compared to the life described in the dramas, the reality of labor reform is naturally more difficult.
But it’s not bad, it’s much better than I imagined. If I were captured somewhere else, I would definitely not receive such good treatment.
For example, when sent to mine, the mine tunnels could collapse at any time and the air was extremely polluted, so the average survival time of the miners would not exceed three years.
I heard that Rand also needs mining, but Lord Rand seems to have some special mining models that will not cause too many deaths and injuries among miners, and those who participate in mining will receive additional subsidies and reduction in the total labor reform time.
After working until the evening, we distributed food and daily necessities and then let them go back.
Most of the labor camp workers like Allen slept in sheds, but Allen went back to his small thatched hut because he had children to take care of.
The friend's child was already waiting in the house.
When the child saw Alan who had returned from labor reform, he ran over quickly.
Alan looked at the child. The six-year-old looked a little dirty.
"What did they ask you to do over there today?" Alan asked.
"We learned a few words, and then we were asked to help clean up some vegetable fields in the city." The child answered truthfully.
Alan nodded. He certainly wouldn't say anything about the evil Rand who even exploited the labor of teenagers.
On the contrary, if it is in a normal family, the work that children have to undertake will be even harder than this.
The study work arranged by Rand is already very friendly or even kind. After all, Rand will also provide lunch for the children, which will greatly reduce the pressure on both prisoners and normal families.
Alan started a pot in the thatched hut and began to steam the soup ingredients. They were all ordinary things, but they were enough to fill him up.
I heard that a collective canteen will be built in the future, but its establishment still requires the efforts of these prisoners.
This made Alan look forward to his work.
As for life... Today, the tongue-tied officer did not explain clearly how long the labor reform would take, but a co-worker revealed it to him while he was working.
Ten years, but if you work hard, in fact, in a little more than seven years, you will be free, and when you are free you will even get some assets as gifts.
