Release that Witch - Chapter 370

[Chapter 368]

…

“Do you think he will agree?” Nightingale asked in his ear after Pei Luo left.

“I don’t know, and it’s useless to just agree to it, you have to convince Earl Hermon.” Roland took a sip of hot tea, “If he still intends to be a feudal nobleman, then he can only say sorry It’s

gone.”

“You can’t bear it, can you?” she teased.

“Of course I don’t want to,” Roland curled his lips. “Among the nobles, he is neither pedantic, but also knows how to seize opportunities. He is also very good at running business. As long as he trains in Longsong Fortress for a year and a half, he will definitely be able to hold his own. excellent official.”

“If he convinces Earl Hermon, do you really plan to hand over the capital to him?”

“If I unify Graycastle, the capital will naturally have to be changed… and a city that is too far away from the Western Territory , it is best to be managed by people sent from the western region, so the conditions I offered are not empty talk.” At the end of the conversation, Roland revealed to Pei Luo that he would not entrust any nobles in the future, and after the integration of Graycastle, the kingdom The whole territory will implement one law and one policy in accordance with the model of the new city, and all power will be vested in the central government.

If he decides to stay, Longsong Fortress is far from the end of his participation in politics. It is not impossible to take charge of a big city, or become the chief bureaucrat of the Central Administration Office.

As for which step he can do, it still depends on his own ability.

Roland hoped that the other party could understand the expectations contained in these words.

“Well, anyway, I don’t understand these things,” Nightingale patted him on the shoulder, “But the new witch is coming soon, it’s better for you to leave for a while.”

“Are you asking alone?”

“I I’ll call Wendy over,” a voice from beside me chuckled, “She’s better at this than me.”

For security reasons (mainly because of the suggestion from Scroll), the Witch Alliance had to have Nightingale confirm the identity of the witch before accepting it.

Since the God’s Stone of Retaliation must be removed to identify a lie in the fog state, Roland was not allowed to be present, lest the other party suddenly attack and cause an accident.

Scroll even compiled ten general questions for identification, such as “Where are you from”, “Your real name”, “Do you know the prince”, “Whether you are hostile to the prince”, etc., considering that Nightingale One can only judge the authenticity of one’s own beliefs, but cannot see through certain lies, so these questions are inquired from various aspects, leaving almost no dead ends.

Even if one or two can be fooled, it is impossible to answer everything.

Roland himself was rather dumbfounded by this, but considering that the witches also had good intentions, he had no choice but to let them go.

…

Leaving the living room, he returned to the office and immediately called Barov, the head of the city hall.

The report that Pei Luo found a new witch in Longsong Fortress made him aware of his negligence. Although he sent Nana to the honor platform and officially announced the existence of witches in the town, there was no decree that directly stated The treatment and status of witches.

Therefore, Border Town may also have a situation like a fortress – after knowing that he was awakened as a witch, he still chose to hide his identity instead of standing out.

As soon as Barov entered, Roland ordered, “I’m going to issue a long-term recruitment announcement, and the content will be written on this draft paper.”

He took the draft document and quickly read it, “You… want Recruit witches with a salary of one gold dragon per month?”

“That’s right,” Roland nodded, “this is also the standard salary of the Witch Union.” The monthly salary of one gold dragon is definitely the highest salary position in this era, and the salary level in small towns is generally high In other cities, the acid factory worker with the highest starting salary has climbed to twenty silver wolves, while the witch’s is five times that.

This recruitment not only explained the treatment of witches, but also affirmed their status.

“Since you want to get more witches, why don’t you mobilize the people to look for them?” Barov asked, “Just like you asked the people to report spies before, they are the most keen eyes.”

Now even the chief executive has learned the trick of “the vast ocean of people’s war”. The prince held back the smile in his heart, waved his hands and said, “Then I will give them bonuses? Isn’t that exactly the same as the church’s practice?”

“But… you did this to recruit witches, not to hang them.”

“That’s true, but the witches exposed by the public may think that I am forcing them. You must know that the local new witches this year have not experienced The experience of persecution cannot be compared with the situation of witches outside,” Roland said noncommittally, “I hope they can stand up voluntarily and contribute their strength to Border Town.”

In addition to the witch’s personal wishes, he is more worried about, If the decree declares that there will be rewards for discovering witches and rewards for giving birth to witches, it is likely to cause a new round of “reporting” or treat birthing witches as a “business”.

Hard work is not as good as giving birth to a witch. Although it can greatly reverse the status of witches in a short period of time, in the long run, this policy will have a negative impact on the slogan of “hard work and get rich” promoted by Border Town.

Therefore, simply recruiting only witches can effectively avoid this situation from happening.

Just as Barov bowed and stepped back, Wendy walked in right behind her and handed the result of the inquiry to the table, “Your Highness, I have confirmed my identity, and it is basically the same as what the eldest son of Honeysuckle said, there is no problem.”

“Look .

” Roland laughed, “you are too careful.”

“But this caution is necessary,” Wendy insisted, “your personal safety is the first thing we need to guarantee.”

“Okay,” he thought to himself Suddenly touched, he took a deep breath, “Then bring her in.” The

girl is about fifteen or sixteen years old, with dirty dark brown hair, and timidity and panic in her eyes. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com probably It was the first time I walked into a carpeted room, and I didn’t know where to put my hands and feet.

According to the results recorded on the paper, she called herself a white paper, was born on the outskirts of Longsong Fortress, and became an orphan after a heavy snowfall three years ago. This experience is probably similar to that of most vagrants in the Western Territory.

They will either die fighting for food, or join the underground rats as thieves, thugs, or scapegoats.

“You…” Roland didn’t know what to say for a moment. She was not as adaptable as Agatha, and she was far less determined than Anna. Even Mystery Moon and Lily, who were similar to her, also had Freelance sisters as companions.

As a little girl in a strange place, she is probably still in a state of panic and uncertainty, and it may take a long time to adapt to the new life.

And from Pei Luo’s report, it can be seen that the ability to melt snow quickly is probably related to temperature.

Anyway, there is no rush to test the ability for a while, and you can gradually understand it from getting along with her.

Thinking of this, he looked at Wendy, “She should be exhausted from the long voyage, take her to take a bath first, and have a good rest for a while. The housing is arranged in the Witch Building. As for the precautions related to magic power, I’ll leave it to you to teach, okay?”

“Of course,” she smiled, “as you wish.”
