569. Chapter 569 Threat of Power

    With the end of the incomplete spring and the summer coming, the population growth of Neverwinter City ushered in the first explosive peak.

    The actions of sending people to the southeast to recruit refugees began to pay off. With the experience of the previous year, the envoy team’s recruitment efficiency has increased dramatically, and hundreds of people gather at Scarlet Water City and Willow Town every day. Waiting for the Western Region’s ships to take them to the rumored and affluent Neverwinter City.

    In order to place these people properly, City Hall also commissioned merchants to rent temporary barracks at the pooling location and provide porridge water for free to avoid accidents before the arrival of the Western Region.

    The Bianbian District Dock has become the busiest area in the city. 90% of the police force is used to maintain order and register the population. The quarantine checkpoints are always filled with long queues. The officials responsible for managing the accounts divide the flooded migrants into several large ones. Class, then move them into the riverside board room, the city west cave dwelling and the official residence.

    To this end, the busy city hall gives a feeling of flying chickens and dogs every day.

    “Scarlet Water City’s three sailboats have just arrived at the dock, a total of one hundred and twenty-six people, the blue flag hanging on the mast, the person in charge is Babu!”

    “Come back? Is this the first batch today? ”

    “The fourth batch is still the fifth batch? Don’t complain anyway, go pick up the boat! ”

    “Right, who is the replacement for Bab to Scarlet Water City?”

    It's me. Wait, just fine! ”

    “Remember to bring soap, there is no sale there!”

    Listening to the noisy conversation outside the office, Barov is a little frowning. He is not too much trouble. If the City Hall’s work is busy, his mood will only be more pleasant.

    But recently, the situation has become complicated.

    The reason is Edith Kant.

    “Premier Minister, the Ministry of Justice has reminded us!”An assistant walked into the office. “Carter asked to recruit another 100 people as reserve police officers. He said that no more people will be added. The security in the city will not be taken care of. When Your Majesty asks about this, we also Can’t escape responsibility.”

    Hey, isn’t he just talking to himself as Chief Knight and talking in front of Your Majesty, like this little thing, he has no time to take care of it. While drafting the documents, Barov didn’t lift his head. “First put it on the table, I will deal with it later.”

    “Yes!”

    The assistant just closed the door, and his voice immediately sounded Edith. “Is this the content of the recruitment order?” Since you are too busy, I will help you check it out. ”

    Sure enough! Barov snorted in his heart, and even the honorific words were useless!

    Of course, the other party is the daughter of the northern region Duke. It is indeed much higher than his identity. Until she becomes the real King, she can call her name without using her name, but he is a big one. Miss half of the mentor? After all, Your Majesty arranged Edith in the Premier Minister office to study the City Hall department structure and government process as an assistant, but she does not seem to think so now.

    “hmm…also. ”He reluctantly said.

    Even if she was helpless, Miss Kant couldn’t talk about any mistakes. If he refused and was passed to Your Majesty, it would be unreasonable. At this critical time, you can’t leave a bad impression on Your Majesty anyway.

    He will never forget that Roland Wimbledon is a demon who can see the hearts of the people.

    “Thanks!”

    Soon the rustling of the writing was heard on the opposite table.

    After half an hour, Edith put the recruitment order back to his desk.

    “According to the draft I have recently read, such recruitment generally requires people to be reliable, and at the same time the innocence comes from the people. There should be no more people in such a border area. Instead of posting the announcement to the square and asking interested parties to come to the City Hall to apply, it is better to transfer the account directly from the archives and select a hundred locals who have not yet officially worked. The Ministry of Justice belongs to most of City Hall, and the salary and treatment are good. No one will refuse. If you do this, you will save a week or so over the normal recruitment process, and there will be less complaints from Chief Knight. If you feel that there is no problem, I will transfer it to the archives according to this approval. ”

    Her voice is clear and organized, and it is hard to believe that joining City Hall is only about two weeks old.

    I remember that at the beginning, she just sat down and quietly checked the documents she reviewed, and rarely spoke, but now she has been very comfortable with the City Hall.

    UhJust do what you said. ”

    For Edith’s comments, Barov couldn’t think of a better way at the moment, and maybe even busy, he would ignore these less important things and deal with them directly in the usual way.

    Is this the heir who grew up in Duke House and trained by the noble education?

    Barov felt a deep threat.

    Yes, honor and respect are small things, and what he really cares about is the power in his hands. The news that Northern Lands is fully effective is now well known. If Edith was sent to serve as an assistant to Your Majesty in order to form a secondary City Hall in Northern Lands, it would have little impact, but what if she stayed?

    Your Majesty is not currently married, and the other is a true Duke daughter!

    At the thought of this, Barov felt a headache.

    No, we must let her know that the management of City Hall is not so easy to master, and Your Majesty needs a minister who can cope with him!

    When Edith returned to the office, he cleared his throat and handed the statistics in his hand to her.

    这是

    “We have troubles,” Barov whispered. “Neverwinter City’s stocks are unlikely to survive the wheat harvest.”

    “Hey, is it caused by the influx of people?”Edith scans the list. “According to the above consumption, the surplus should be able to support the end of the summer. Spring wheat can be harvested in mid-July, and this part of the food is enough as long as it stops continuing to accept the displaced. ”

    “But the City Hall must not stop the refugees.”

    “Because of the 100,000 population goal set by Your Majesty?”

    “No, that’s not the point,” Barov shook his head. “There are still people who are constantly moving from the southeast to the gathering place. If they are abandoned, not only will they bring riots to Scarlet Water City and Willow Town, but it will also make us It is very difficult to find the image that has been created and it will be difficult to recruit afterwards. Your Majesty has revealed to me that his development plan requires a large population to achieve, and 100,000 citizens are just the beginning. So City Hall can’t disrupt Your Majesty’s arrangement because of food problems. We have to solve this trouble. This is also the responsibility of the Minister of Minister Minister.” He paused and looked at Edith Kant. “Do you have any good ideas? ”
