The matter of appointing the general manager had been discussed in advance and is now being announced publicly.
It was still announced by Alia.
She said loudly: "The island citizen assembly is held every four years. Therefore, all the chief stewards are also appointed every four years. The longest consecutive term for a chief steward is three."
"At the end of the term, if there are no mistakes, you will be awarded the title of 'Primary Honorary Citizen of the Island' at least, and enjoy the treatment of an Honorary Citizen for life."
“The following is the list of appointments.”
"Head of the Administrative Department, Kruber."
"The Lord Chancellor of the War Department, Knight Codling."
"The head of the magic department, Mage Wei Ge."
"The position of the Director of Commerce is temporarily vacant and will be taken over by the Lord."
"The position of Director of the Ministry of Education is temporarily vacant and will be temporarily filled by the Lord."
"The position of Admiral is temporarily vacant and will be taken over by the Lord."
"The mayor of Gaoshan Town, Mr. Luo Kao."
Reading out the names one by one, there are 18 people in total, including the heads of various departments and the mayors of various towns.
Among the 18 appointments, except for the three new departments of 'Commerce, Education, and Navy', two-thirds of the other department heads are civilians who are not knights.
Even the knights were all newly promoted knights.
Not to mention the previous generation, I was a farmer when I was a child.
Moreover, the mayors of the 12 newly-established towns are all local civilians on the island, fully fulfilling the promise of "island citizens' right to participate in politics."
Soon, department and town supervisory positions were filled.
Next is the manager of the three warehouses.
"The three warehouses are the grain warehouse, the military supply warehouse, and the bank."
This announcement was still made by the female warrior Alia.
"Storing grain in the granary is the top priority as it affects the dining tables of every island citizen."
"Establish three major granaries and appoint three major granary managers. Each manager is directly responsible to the lord."
"The First Granary Manager, Igonini!"
Igonini suddenly felt his blood boiling.
People on the islands often go hungry, and everyone knows the importance of food.
Now the lord has handed over the management of the first granary to him, which shows great trust in him, in the Yigo tribe, and even in all the original tribal members.
As soon as this appointment was made, the faces of all the former forest spirits lit up, and the vague vigilance and humility that had been shrouding them all disappeared in an instant.
Alia then announced the appointment of the managers of the second and third granaries. One was a human, and the other was a rare hybrid of forest elves and humans.
"The military depot stores various military supplies. There are two large military depots."
"One is the standing arsenal, which will be manned by Knight Kosen."
Kosen was originally one of the three great knights, but he was a very meticulous and straightforward person. When he encountered something he didn't like, he would jump out immediately no matter what the occasion, so he was not very popular.
The chief officer of the arsenal wants this kind of iron-faced man who is meticulous and prudent.
"The second is the magic arsenal, which is headed by Mage Juan."
Juan was one of the original Kao wizards, with intermediate mana, average spell engineering ability, and an online spell level, so he was pushed forward by Gatlan and others.
Alia then began to announce the third library, which is the bank.
"The bank is a money store. Its full name is Island Citizens Bank."
“The Island Citizens Bank is used by all citizens, but since it is a brand new institution, we have not yet found the right talent.”
"The bank manager will be temporarily in the charge of the lord. When a suitable talent emerges in the future, he will be directly responsible to the lord."
At this point, Alia said loudly: "At this point, the appointment of the general manager has been preliminarily completed, and will be gradually improved in the future."
"I hope all the citizens of the island will work harder, master the relevant skills as soon as possible, and help the lord share the heavy government affairs."
After saying this, Alia stepped back, and Rosen whispered a few words to Serena before standing up and making the announcement.
"Princess Chenxi is now invited to give a speech and conduct the awarding ceremony for the first citizen of the island."
Princess Chenxi is the glory of the islanders. Speaking and listening to the princess' words is a glorious thing.
At this time, everyone clapped loudly.
Selena had experienced many big scenes in Dawn City, so she was naturally not stage-frightened.
After everyone calmed down a little, she smiled and began her speech in a gentle tone and clear voice.
"I know that many people are curious, why did I choose to marry a baron?"
"In the beginning, there must have been many people who were suspicious and thought I was a fake Princess Dawn."
"I also know that some of you already know what happened between me and the Baron in Dawn City."
As the princess spoke, everyone's attention was deeply attracted.
It is indeed very outrageous that Princess Veran, a member of the noble Adrian family and a direct descendant of Saint Veran, would actually marry a small baron with less than 100,000 subjects.
However, a small number of people who knew the inside story also had doubts in their minds and did not understand why Princess Chenxi insisted on choosing the Baron of White Sturgeon Island.
After all, even if you don't choose King Dange, you can choose other kings.
Even if the duke disagrees, the princess can still go out on her own to find a husband, and there will definitely be a king or duke who will come to propose marriage.
After all, Dange is only the king of a member state of the Natural Alliance, not the emperor of the Natural Alliance.
The two great kingdoms of Levender and Kao might not really be afraid of him.
Especially Levinder.
It does not border Aaron, but its national strength is very strong. It is the little overlord of the Eastern Golden Cape of the Wit Continent and has no concerns about King Dange.
Captain Yop and several deputy captains had been puzzled by this question for a long time, and now they all pricked up their ears to listen.
Outside the hall.
Maxim whispered to Muradi: "If Princess Chenxi contacts His Majesty Silla in advance. With His Majesty's playful personality, he will most likely agree."
Muradi shrugged. "Your Majesty will definitely agree, but there are no ifs. Princess Chenxi obviously doesn't like our king."
Maxim glanced at Rosen who was sitting on the lord's bench: "She has reason to dislike it."
"In terms of pure masculine charm, His Majesty Sheila is far inferior to the Baron."
The attendant Ade nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the baron looks very majestic and has a calm personality. Women love this kind of man the most, and our king is still a playful child."
At this time, the princess' voice continued to be heard in the hall.
"In fact, the original reason was very simple. I have known the Baron for ten years. He is the man I am most familiar with besides my father, even more familiar than my brother."
"At first, I thought he was just an ordinary little boy, but as he grew older, I found that he was getting taller and more majestic, and I like tall and majestic men."
At this point, Serena smiled and looked around at everyone: "So, don't you think your lord looks very manly?"
That's true.
Coupled with the amazing abilities he demonstrated after landing on the island, many people believed that he was the biological son of Mother Nature.
So, the princess' words immediately resonated with all the people on the island.
Because of her words, the distance between her and the people on the island was greatly shortened.
The islanders felt that she was very friendly, not like a princess floating in the sky, but standing beside them.
Looking at the noisy crowd, the princess thought to herself, "Not only is he good-looking, he also has amazing talent, a reliable and gentle personality, and he's also very strong and powerful."
She naturally thought of her recent intimacy with her husband and the endless pleasure that lingered in heaven. She felt her heartbeat speed up slightly and her legs became a little weak.
"Anna said that my life is not difficult, not only is it not difficult, it is extremely happy~"
But these mysteries naturally cannot be told to outsiders.
After she recovered, she continued, "Okay, the biggest doubt has been resolved."
"Now, it's time to award medals of honor to the heroes who helped quell the rebellion."
As Alia said this, she brought a tray with exquisite medals.
A row of gleaming metal medals were neatly arranged on the tray.
This medal is not simple. It has a silver-white hardened mithril base, runes depicted in dark blue arcanite, and is inlaid with a grain-sized, sparkling, flawless sapphire.
Its exquisite craftsmanship and expensive materials attracted everyone's attention as soon as it appeared.
Even the commanders of the Flame Regiment were jealous.
Harry licked his lips. "The cost of the materials for this medal alone is at least 500 Oggs. The Lord is so generous!"
Yop grinned: "This matter has nothing to do with us."
He also longed for it very much in his heart.
But reason told him that he was just a mercenary of the baron, and since he had already taken the money, the honor naturally had nothing to do with him.
At this time, the princess took out an exquisite medal in her hand and said solemnly.
"The Island Hero Medal was made by my husband and I. It can trigger the activation of the advanced Thorn Lightning Shield. After being activated once, it can be charged with the assistance of a mage, or it can be charged autonomously by placing it in the sun."
"A total of twelve medals, awarded to twelve island heroes who have made outstanding contributions in the battle to unify the islands!"
"Wow~~~"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the half-knowledgeable warriors lit up with envy, while the fully knowledgeable mages almost drooled with longing.
Even Wei Ge, the court alchemist who had seen many good things, couldn't control herself.
The advanced thorn lightning shield was very powerful. Self-charging in the sun was a unique technology, and even she had never heard of it before.
This was the first time she wanted a magic weapon so much.
Muradi and Maxim outside the door were also surprised.
Muradi whispered, "If this thing is real, it's worth a lot of money."
Maxim said: "Indeed."
As a member of the great nobility, he had much deeper insights than Muradi.
He knew that Levinder had also made some recent achievements similar to autonomous charging, but they were not yet very mature.
Considering that the Baron took this thing out as a medal instead of selling it, it is probably because it is not very mature.
But no matter what, this is enough to prove that the Baron and his wife have achieved extremely high achievements in magic.
The princess's clear voice was heard again in the hall.
"The first hero of the island, the leader of my personal guard, Sir Yop!"
As soon as the voice came out, Yop's whole body shook violently, he felt his heart pounding, and his mind was full of disbelief.
"I'm just a mercenary. The baron has paid me, but you're still giving me a hero medal?"
This medal is more than just a medal, it is also a soldier's supreme honor! Is it just a formality?
But you didn't inform him in advance?
In a daze, he walked in front of the princess and stood straight.
The princess' voice came: "Sir Yop led the guards to participate in every major battle and made great contributions in the battles. He is truly the first hero of the island."
After that, she personally hung the medal on Yop's chest and whispered in her heart: "Captain Yop, this is what you deserve, so it belongs to you."
"Hua La La~~"
Everyone on the island applauded.
Yop is a combat master and an excellent combat commander, and everyone is convinced by this honor.
Yop felt his heart getting hot, and was filled with an extremely strong sense of honor. He couldn't help but hold his chest high, and an idea came to his mind from deep in his heart.
"The Baron and the Princess are so generous. I wish I could be the head of the Princess's Guards."
After he returned to the vice-captains, Harry immediately asked, "Captain, I will return it later."
"The second hero of the island, deputy commander of the Royal Guards, Master Harry."
Harry was startled and rushed to stand in front of the princess.
"The third hero of the island."
As a result, the leader of the Flame Regiment and three deputy leaders all received a hero medal.
The four of us looked at each other, then all looked down at the shining medals on our chests, and then fell silent.
Baron, how generous of you!
Where in the world can you find such a good lord?
Afterwards, three senior mages including Alonso, Vigo and Gatland, and three knight commanders including Kaudrin, also received the Island Hero Medal.
After the twelve hero medals were awarded, 50 warrior medals were immediately awarded, but they were worn by Miss Akali on behalf of the emperor.
Finally, the awarding of honors was completed.
Rosen announced loudly: "The first island citizen assembly is over!"
The general framework has been built, and the next thing to do is to add details to the framework little by little.
He glanced at the members of the Flame Regiment again.
The iron mine agreement with the Earl should also come to an end.
Are there any iron ore mines on the island?
I don’t know, it’s still under investigation.
But the island was already his, even if it had any.
As for the Flame Regiment, he has his own arrangements.
