That afternoon, a group of ten people returned to the Principality of Thunder in a grand manner, riding a carriage back to Baron Keen.
When he learned that Creek Keane had made a fortune gambling at the Mask of the Void amusement park and had recruited a group of powerful masters, Pastor Maggie, who was in charge of handling the matter at the Church of the Noble God, was very unhappy, very unhappy. .
Although she is the sister of Spencer Smith, unlike her brother who believes in the God of Knights, this priest of the God of Nobles is an insidious and vicious woman, full of greedy ambitions.
The reason may be that the two brothers and sisters had different perceptions when they were in danger when they were young, which made the two people establish completely different outlooks on life. Or maybe it's just that those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. Or maybe it's just their innate nature. Different, in short, Spencer Smith, who is a bit proud but still upright, and Maggie Smith, who always hides her sinister thoughts under her smile, are two completely opposite people except for a slight similarity in appearance.
As a rising star in the Church of the Noble God, Pastor Maggie is currently mainly responsible for infiltrating and seizing power in some small and medium-sized noble territories. The God of Nobles is not naturally able to win the faith of all nobles. Just as there are many mages in the world who do not believe in the God of Mages, and knights who do not believe in the God of Knights, the same is true for nobles. Their beliefs are diverse, including those who believe in good and evil gods, and some even secretly believe in evil gods and demons... The average morality of the nobles is definitely not high. On the contrary, many people have a very low threshold, even as low as It's so low that it takes a lot of effort to find it.
Well, so does Maggie Smith. She is a typical character who does whatever it takes to achieve her goals. Threats, inducements, bribes, assassinations... As long as it allows her to achieve her goals, she can commit any crime without any concern, without even a little bit of guilt.
The chef who poisoned Crick Keen before was seduced by the female spy secretly trained by the Church of the God of Nobles. The chef who had served the Keen family for over ten years betrayed his master.
And when she learned that Crick Keane, who was supposed to have died from poison, miraculously woke up, she originally planned to let the chef find another chance to poison him, but soon discovered that he was carefree except reading and painting. Baron Keen, who knew nothing, became shrewd and even began to conduct internal investigations, so she decisively launched the curse and killed the chef to silence him.
It was precisely because of the sudden death of the chef that Crick was deeply disturbed and rushed to find help.
Maggie originally planned to send someone to ambush Baron Keen on his way back to the territory, but the spies reported that the lucky boy actually made a fortune at the Mask of the Void amusement park and recruited a group of extraordinary masters, so she gave up the plan. .
But... this is not over yet!
The beautiful female priest who always smiled softly and made people feel refreshed eerily crushed the magic crystal that conveyed the message, put her fingers with cracked nails due to excessive force into her mouth, gently sucked the blood, and smiled coldly. .
"Among my innocent brother's friends, there is actually a lucky one!" Her smile is enough to make timid people collapse to the ground in fear, "Okay, let me see how to have fun with them. Play'… "
Sui Xiong did not carefully investigate the crises and potential enemies that Crick faced. Now he is busy dealing with a very important matter.
School.
The literacy school at Masked Void Amusement Park has been running for some time, and has trained many talents who can read and write, but how to arrange these talents has given administrator Liv some trouble.
There are not many literate people in this world. Letting them go back to farming or doing manual labor is really a waste and will also damage their enthusiasm. But how can we assign them suitable positions? It's not that easy anymore.
Generally speaking, a literate person should get a decent job no matter where he is, be able to support his family relatively easily, and have a certain status in society - of course, this is for civilians. But although Mask of the Void Amusement Park is not small, it is beyond its capabilities to arrange decent jobs for so many people.
Administrator Liv thought about it, but couldn't think of a suitable solution. In the end, he could only submit this problem to His Majesty the Mask of the Void - the idea of promoting education was his, and it was naturally up to him to solve the subsequent problems.
Sui Xiong was surprised when he received Liv's report. He never expected that there would be an "unemployment" problem in his territory.
"Isn't it natural to be able to read and write? Why can't people who are good at reading and writing be able to farm and do simple jobs?" he asked in confusion.
Liv spent a lot of time explaining this problem to him.
When Sui Xiong understood the problem he was facing, he fell into deep thought.
Could it be that I think about things too simply? Or maybe... Mask of the Void amusement park is no longer big enough and needs to be expanded
To accommodate this group of literate people and satisfy their new positioning of themselves, the current scale of Masked Hollow Amusement Park will definitely not be able to provide enough suitable jobs. In this case, expansion of the scale is inevitable. .
It's just... The literacy school can continue to be run, but the scale of the playground cannot be continuously expanded!
Alternatively, some people can be arranged to work in Gars City and Geltenland
He contacted Ray and Orian.
"People who are literate can take up many jobs, but if there are too many, I won't be able to place them here." Lei said, "Of course there is no problem with the current batch, but what should we do in the future? I think Your Majesty, you should take a good think about it."
"Aren't you also running literacy schools in your territory? Why don't you have such a problem?"
"Because we only teach about a hundred simple words and simple arithmetic within a hundred." Orian said, "From this level of perspective, we can't talk about the level of reading and literacy. It just helps people escape from ignorance a little bit. .But your Majesty's side is different. I heard that your school teaches complete common language and vertical calculation, which has fully reached the level of reading and literacy... To be honest, the cultural level of most nobles is actually That’s it, many people are worse than them!”
"...You mean, I educated them too well?"
"That should be the case." Lei advised, "I think Your Majesty, you might as well lower your education standards. There is no need to cultivate cultural talents in such large numbers. Such talents are certainly useful, but too many will not do..."
After the communication ended, Sui Xiong was a little distressed.
Although the immediate problem has been solved, is my idea really wrong
To be honest, what was taught in the Literacy School of Masked Void Amusement Park was only at the second or third grade level of the elementary school before he time traveled. He was not even taught multiplication and division. How could he become an intellectual like this
The standards of “intellectuals” in this world are too low!
Complaints are complaints, and the problem still needs to be solved.
So he called together several well-informed gods and friends to discuss this issue seriously...
