Release that Witch Chapter 473: The third step in building a city

After two weeks of study and exploration, at the end of the first month of the new year in the spring of the new year, City Hall Prime Minister Barov, in response to the request of His Highness the Prince, held the first City Hall Enlarged Meeting in the living room of the castle club. In addition to the heads of the various departments of the first plenary session, this expanded conference will include a part of stronghold noble, with a total of 65 participants.

The learning process itself is an assessment. One year after Barov took charge of City Hall, it has been easy to tell which noble is suitable for this kind of work, and which noble has no training value. -- So this level alone, there are nearly half of noble Excluded.

According to His Royal Highness, he has given these small nobles the opportunity to catch the express shuttle. Since they missed, there is no way, and those who cannot keep up with the times will only be eliminated by the times. Barov feels the same. Regardless of whether his Highness is Devil or gods, his territory has shown a completely different weather from other parts of the kingdom. -- If this is the new era, he will be happy to go with His Highness.

The main content of today ’s meeting is to make a final vote on the unified law after the city was built, and at the same time let stronghold noble know the content of the law in advance. Barov has been preparing for this for a long time, and now it is finally time to unveil the opening ceremony.

A thin hard cover book is placed in front of everyone, and the cover is printed with a large series of golden characters -- "Kingdom Basic Law", which is also the core law drafted by His Highness the Prince and modified by himself. Judging from the name, he knows that His Royal Highness's picture is far away, and he also believes that His Highness' power should not only work in Western Region.

"Get started," His Highness Roland sitting at the top of the long table nodded.

"Yes," Barov cleared his throat. "Presumably everyone in City Hall has already heard of the news that Western Region is about to establish a new city, and this law before you is a general law that will be implemented in Your Royal Highness. You can refer to it yourself or listen to my statement. Any questions can be raised on the spot and answered by Your Highness. "

There was a loud rumbling of the book, and he opened the thick cover to reveal the first page written in refined parchment underneath.

"The first thing you see is the general outline, which mentions the structure and system of the new territory ..."

"First, all powers under the jurisdiction of Roland Wimbledon belong to Roland Wimbledon."

"Article 2, City Hall is the supreme authority of the territory. Under the leadership of Roland Wimbledon's, it handles all matters concerning the governance of the territory."

"Article 3, the influx of people in the territory can be promoted to full citizenship through various channels. City Hall should maintain at least three promotion channels."

"Article 4: After becoming a formal citizen, there will be no distinction between freemen, peasants, servants, and slaves in the past, and there is no distinction between men and women. Citizens are protected by law and have all the security and benefits of the territory. Obligation to pay taxes, serve, and defend the enemy. "

"Article 5, noble is also a member of the official citizenship. Titles no longer have corresponding powers, and can be inherited as honorary titles according to law."

"Article 6, the personal safety and legal property of citizens are protected by Roland Wimbledon and cannot be violated."

"Article 7. Citizens shall have the right to education, the right to freely choose work, and the right to free marriage."

"Article 8 The Territory encourages legitimate business practices and free trade."

"Article 9, ..."

Barov capped the pages of the book, telling them one by one. The laws formulated between noble rarely involve the people. Even the city's freemen, in the eyes of the big noble, is only used for exploitation and solicitation. Like the His Highness the Prince, it repeatedly refers to the people under the system. Is really rare. Probably he really believes that only by relying on the strength of the people can he fight the upcoming War of Judgement Day.

Barov doesn't care whether His Highness relies on noble or the people. He just wants to do as much as possible for His Highness's account, so that these powers are firmly held in his hands. In Kingdom Capital, he transferred from astrologer Association to Minister of Finance as an assistant. He thought that he would soon be able to set foot on the top of Kingdom of Greycastle. I did not expect that the first-class situation would be ten years, and the turbulent mood gradually became numb and desolate. The reason why Wimbledon III's agreed to follow Fourth Prince to Border Town, in addition to an empty promise, there was also a feeling of breaking the jar and breaking inside. Unexpectedly, now he has realized his expectations in another way.

Barov hasn't seen the real Devil, but he knows the strength of those armored Knight, His Highness the Prince can easily solve them, and naturally can flatten the resistance of the whole kingdom. Sooner or later, His Royal Highness will be crowned King, King will come to the world, and he will become the King power in his hands. If Minister of Finance is still alive, what expression will he meet with himself?

...

Since most of the contents of the general outline have been publicized to citizen in a more general way, the heads of various departments are not surprised. Only when they mentioned the prohibition of human trafficking and the abolition of slavery, they aroused a whispered discussion in noble. No one even questioned the remaining regulations.

As for the noble reform part, these little nobles have not enjoyed many territorial benefits on weekdays. Most people ’s sites are zoned in inaccessible places. Naturally, they do n’t care about losing the so-called segregation and legal rights. Coupled with the study in the past two weeks, many nobles have planned to sell their land to City Hall, and then use this money to open a new industry such as a mechanical processing plant or chemical plant in Longsong Stronghold.

In this way, the law is explained one by one. The extended meeting lasts from morning to afternoon. The banquet in the middle is attendants. They bring the food directly to the table, and everyone eats and watches. Barov's water cup has also been changed several times. Although he felt a sore throat, he still liked it.

Finally, the conference entered the final topic, which is also the only rule in the "Kingdom Basic Law" that allows everyone to discuss and decide: determine the flag and name of the new city.

Everyone's voice was noisy.

Barov then asked everyone to set a name and an ideal pattern in their minds, and then put it on the table for the participants to compare and determine the final answer.

After several votes and eliminations, the new city's flag and name were finally selected.

The former is based on the emblem of the Greycastle royal family. The bottom pattern is still an high tower lance. A five-pointed star is added above the high tower, and three small stars are added under the tower. The large constellation signifies feudal lord Roland Wimbledon, and the small stars represent City Hall, First Army and Witch Union.

The latter is established as "Neverwinter City".
