Chapter 200198: Executor and Infiltration (900 monthly tickets plus more)
In Luo Yi's opinion, the most important thing to accomplish something is people's hearts.
When people are united, they can move mountains. This is not just empty words!
Therefore, the second thing he did after becoming earl was to find a way to unify the thoughts of his vassals.
In fact, these nobles and knights who grew up in the Norman Duchy have their own set of cognitive patterns.
In a short period of time, you must make them understand what magic machinery is, what freedom is, what the transformation of small peasant economy to capitalism is, and what industrialization is...
These are really too difficult for them!
Luo Yi didn't want to force the situation, but he would tell them what he thought and what he was going to do!
Most importantly, he was not going to follow the example of Count Carl Raymond and use tough measures to promote the implementation and popularization of magical machinery.
First of all, he doesn't have that kind of prestige, so he can't push it forward!
Secondly, facts have proven that it was wrong, so he naturally won’t repeat the mistake!
Therefore, his policy was to first maintain the old system, appease the hearts of the vassals, and then find ways to promote the development of magical machinery.
As long as his idea is completed and huge benefits are gained, he believes that these vassals will take the initiative to understand, recognize and participate.
But it's much better than the current nagging.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. Subtle changes and gradual progress are the right way and will not cause unrest!
Of course, Roy acted very gently, and his policies also took into account the interests of the old aristocracy, but the final warning was not false.
He actually didn't believe these people's oaths,
Some even feel that the destruction of Raymond Castle, including the severance of his direct bloodline, might have been caused by these people.
Otherwise, with the Raymond family's control over the Flower Territory, how could those people come and go quietly?
In this world, even legends still have to eat.
Did these vassals really not notice anything at all?
Or, have you already been involved in it?
Don't think that Luo Yi seems to be very calm. In fact, this Lion Manor has been screened countless times inside and out.
Now, Oliveira has taken over the entire security work.
If he was really discovered, Luo Yi would definitely not hesitate to use thunder-like means to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
However, at least for now, no one gave him this opportunity.
Of course, everyone did not enjoy the dinner that night. Even though melodious music was playing, not many people were dancing on the dance floor.
In fact, everyone was thinking about Luo Yi's words and seemed a little absent-minded.
However, Luo Yi didn't bother with them. Instead, he ate a bite of food, talked a few words, and then returned to his study.
This is the third floor of the manor, a study that has been cleaned up and luxuriously decorated. Inside, there are desks and chairs for office use, and books for decoration.
It also includes a small living room with several comfortable sofas, which can be used as a place to rest and chat.
Butler Hoover knew Loy's habits. He liked to receive guests, handle affairs, and even draw and study in the study.
So, after he took over the manor, he specifically chose this study room and cleaned and decorated it separately.
It was also here that Loy received his first guest, who was none other than the executor of the magical machinery, Lord Shik Cruz.
Seeing him walk into the living room with a scholarly demeanor, Luo Yi had already poured him a cup of black tea and pushed it in front of him.
"sit!"
"Thank you, Lord Earl!"
Sitting across from each other in the sofa area, Luo Yi took a sip of tea and asked, "Lord Hick, did I disappoint you today?"
"Disappointed? Why do you say that?"
"I deny what my father did. Shouldn't you be disappointed?"
Xike Cruz said simply: "You are not your father, so of course you can't blindly follow his methods.
Furthermore, the Earl's death has already shown that our previous choices and methods were wrong. There is nothing to say about this."
After a pause, he continued, "In fact, I am quite surprised by your choice.
I was even prepared to be kicked out and start wandering again."
Luo Yi defended himself, "I studied in the Habsburg Empire for two years. I know as much about magical machinery as you do."
"But I've seen too many people rise to high positions and betray their class.
The dragon slayer eventually becomes the dragon himself, this is the norm!"
"Haha, it seems that Lord Shick has truly seen the power of human kindness. However, in the Flower Territory, I hope that you can show your strengths and fulfill your wishes."
"I hope so!"
Xike Cruz wasn't in high spirits, even looking a little depressed. He said, "The previous method was definitely wrong. Now, I don't know what to do."
"Then take a look at my plan?"
As he said this, Luo Yi handed over a piece of information.
Shik Cruz looked at the parchment scroll, then looked at Roy, but just as he reached out to take it, Roy retracted his hand.
He said, "Lord Hick, I have one more thing to say. Now that you have seen it, you can't back down, right?"
Seeing Loy's serious expression, Shik Cruz pondered for a moment, then resolutely took the information in his hand.
He unfolded it and read it line by line. At first, his expression was calm, but later on, he was shocked.
Especially seeing the dislocation of trade, commercial complementarity, intercepting resources, harvesting Jintiel, investing in territory, and circular development...
Once these concepts and ideas came out, he could no longer hold back.
He stood up in a flash and began to pace around the study, sometimes scratching his head, sometimes delighted, sometimes frowning, and sometimes as if he had thought of something, his face full of enthusiasm...
Finally, he walked to Luo Yi, sat down, and said, "My Lord Earl, this plan, did you write it?"
"I'm not doubting it, I just want to ask, is this really written by you?"
Luo Yi raised his head slightly and asked, "Don't you think so?"
"No, it's just too amazing. It's really too amazing."
"So, do you think it's feasible? Is there anything that needs to be corrected?"
“There are definitely details to be worked on, and implementation will present many practical issues that need to be addressed, but it’s already perfect.
That’s it, that’s it…”
"Just what? You can say whatever you want!"
"Two points. The first is the research and development capabilities mentioned here. Creating machines that the empire desperately needs, or even cannot be replaced, is no easy task."
Luo Yi nodded and continued, "The Magic Hammer Forging Machine, the Magic Steelmaking Furnace, and the Soul-Fixing Spice, these three will definitely be enough for export in the early stages.
As for the rest, I'll do the design and Lilia will help me realize it, so it shouldn't be a problem."
"That's the second point. We need to open up sales channels within the Habsburg Empire and have powerful connections. Otherwise, our business will easily attract envy."
Luo Yi laughed again: "Don't worry about this. I said before that I have accumulated hundreds of thousands of gold tyres worth of wealth and property. Do you think I was joking?
I have the way, and I have the backing!"
“Also, I can sense that the Empire hasn’t given up their plan and is somewhat looking forward to our cooperation.
So, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
After a pause, Luo Yi continued, "I have already set up a communication magic circle and sent someone to contact the imperial ambassador.
When the time comes, you can come along too. I need your help."
"I shall obey your orders."
As he said this, Shik looked at the scroll in his hand again and said, "Actually, with this complete plan, it doesn't make any difference whether I'm here or not."
Luo Yi waved his hand and said, "I need a strong executor. Before, you were responsible for this. Now, I hope you can be more responsible."
"Is that okay?"
"Of course!"
"Oh, there's one more thing I need you to do!"
"Mr. Count, please speak?"
"I know you have a group of people under your command. They were given to you by my father to help you promote the development of magic machinery. They were also scattered throughout the Flower Territory.
I need you to mobilize them and oversee the implementation of the three decrees in all regions."
"I need to stabilize Flower Territory as quickly as possible. Only when it is truly stable can we proceed with other plans."
"I will obey your orders."
"That's it for today. If you have any questions, please let me know!"
"yes!"
Shik Cruz responded and felt his body filled with energy.
However, just before he left, his eyes fell on the information in his hand, and he couldn't help but say, "My Lord Earl, can I take this back and study it carefully?"
"Okay, but don't leak it. I don't want others to get the plan and ambush me."
"Of course!"
Lord Shik Cruz left. His back was completely different from the confused look when he came. He looked like a fighter, ready to fight against heaven and earth.
Not long after he left, Ange came in.
He walked to Luo Yi's side, bowed slightly, and said: "My Lord Earl, I have selected a group of candidates, and they are now undergoing intensive training.
So, do we really want to carry out this infiltration plan?"
Luo Yi nodded slightly: "Of course, I don't want to rely on the enemy's mercy for my life.
Therefore, we must be well-informed, even pervasive.”
"That is, what do you think is a good name for this organization?"
The third update is here. It’s a little late, but I didn’t break my promise.
