The Knight's Journey to the Empire

After everyone sat down, Soran himself did not sit down. Instead, after looking around, his eyes finally stopped on Adam.

Soran looked solemn and said loudly with a firm tone: "Adam!"

"Here!" Adam stood up immediately and answered in an equally loud and resounding voice.

"Now, in the name of the hereditary baron and hereditary lord of White Bear Territory, I appoint you as the political officer and business officer of White Bear Territory, responsible for handling the daily affairs and daily government affairs of the territory, as well as the management and development of the territory's commerce!" Sauron's words of appointment were firm and unquestionable.

"Yes, Baron, I will do my job conscientiously and to the best of my ability and live up to your trust!" Adam put his hand on his chest and answered Soran loudly.

"Gubellini!" Soran's voice was still loud and his tone was firm.

"Here!" Gubellini also stood up immediately.

"I appoint you as the adjutant of the territory's political officer. You must assist the officer in completing various tasks. At the same time, ask him humbly and learn about government affairs, financial management and calculation. In the future, you will take over Javier's position as financial officer. Do you understand?" This was Sauron's earnest encouragement to Gubellini.

"I understand!" Gubellini replied happily.

From Soran's words, he already knew Soran's plans for him in the future.

"Good!" Soran exclaimed, "Now that the appointments have been completed, the next step is to assign tasks!"

“I will now give you four tasks;

First, tomorrow we will announce the new name of our White Bear Territory, today's appointments, and some important discussion results, and convey them to the people in the territory to stabilize their hearts.

Second, take down the plaques of the mayor's residence and the tax officer's villa at the door, and replace them with plaques of the government office and Baron Soren's residence. From now on, the government office will be your main office location.

Third, we need to conduct a population census to check the number, age, gender, health status, etc. of the people living in White Bear Territory. We need to have accurate population data.

Fourth, conduct a census of cultivated land, find out the cultivated land area in White Bear Territory, and then divide it into three levels of "upper field, middle field, and lower field" according to the fertility of the cultivated land and the output in previous years. "

"If there is too much work and you are too busy, you can go to the guard team and pick a few literate people to help. This can be regarded as preliminary training for them! You can treat them as reserve talents in the future!"

"Yes, young master!" they both answered in unison.

"Well, sit down!" Soran nodded.

"Javier!" Soran's loud voice sounded again

"Yes!" Javier stood up and answered loudly!

"Now, in the name of the hereditary baron and hereditary lord of White Bear Territory, I appoint you as the treasurer of White Bear Territory and the chief steward of the Baron's Mansion. You will be responsible for the daily financial expenditure management of the territory, as well as the daily life management of the Baron's Mansion!" Sauron's tone of appointment was still firm and unquestionable.

"Yes, Baron, I will do my duty conscientiously and do my best to complete my job and live up to your trust!" Javier was different from Adam. He bowed to Soran first, and then responded to Soran loudly.

"Okay! Javier, you take out 100 gold coins from my personal property as the initial funds for the territory's finances. From now on, all financial expenditures of the territory must be approved by you. You can decide on your own for financial expenditures below 100 gold coins, but you need to report to me for financial expenditures above gold coins, and I will make the final decision. At the same time, you must keep good records, and I will check them at any time. As for the servants in the mansion, recruit those who need to be recruited and fill the manpower as soon as possible."

Soran's personal treasury and the territory's finances must be separated. The two can supplement each other with money, but they must never be mixed up.

"Finally, if you are too busy, you can also go to the guard team to find someone to help you. You can also train them and use them as a talent reserve."

"Yes, sir!" Harvey answered with the same firm tone.

"Well, sit down!" Soran nodded again and motioned Javier to sit down.

Then he turned his attention to Ramos.

"Ramos!" As Ramos expected, Sauron's voice sounded again.

"Here!" Ramos' voice was the loudest in the whole stadium, deafening!

"Now, in the name of the hereditary baron and hereditary lord of White Bear Territory, I appoint you as the military officer of White Bear Territory. You will be responsible for commanding the territory's army and carrying out daily management of the army. You will also be responsible for guarding the baron's mansion."

"Yes, Baron, I will do my job conscientiously and to the best of my ability and live up to your trust!" Ramos also put his hands on his chest and responded to Soran loudly.

"Okay, now I'll give you a task: the Lord's Guard needs to be reorganized and expanded. The number of people needs to be recruited to 60, and the establishment of two squadrons. You are responsible for recruiting enough people and also for related training work. I will check from time to time!" Reorganizing the territory guard has been what Sauron wanted to do these days.

"Yes, Baron!" Ramos' tone was firm and his voice was as loud as a bell.

"Henry!" Soran turned his gaze to Henry.

"Here!" Henry stood up swiftly, his body straight.

"Henry, you must cooperate with Ramos's work. After recruiting enough people, you will serve as squadron leaders and lead a squadron each!" Soran issued his own allocation for the future construction of the territory's army.

"Yes!" Henry's voice was equally loud.

"Okay, everyone sit down!" Soran nodded.

So they both sat down in silence.

"Well, regarding the appointment of officials and the formation of a leadership team, do you have any other opinions or suggestions?" Sauron asked everyone with a smile.

"No!" Everyone stood up solemnly and shouted in unison.

"Okay, since there isn't one, I'll reiterate it one last time. In the future, everyone should cooperate with each other in work. If there are any conflicts, you can resolve them through negotiation. If you can't resolve them on your own, you can come to me and I'll judge for you. But, don't do anything tricky! Do you understand?" When Sauron said this, his face was dignified and his eyes were fierce.

"Understood!" everyone responded loudly again.

"Understood, let's discuss the next question!"
