King of Mercenaries Chapter 311

Published at 14th of June 2023 05:13:17 AM

After Haider received Marin's order, he was ready to set off. In order to gain momentum, Marin lent him the gold-encrusted carriage used for his marriage.

Then, in addition to 10 tall knights wearing half-plate armor, they followed Heidel all the way, and there were 100 light cavalry to follow.

During this trip, Haider put on the luxurious purple silk robe of the whole body, and also brought a box of gold coins that Marin gave him as the fund for the event.

After arriving in Cologne, Heidel lived in a high-profile hotel next to the University of Cologne in a high-profile, and it was reserved. Then, according to the script given by Marin, Heidel paid a high-profile visit to the president of Cologne Kabritz and gave a very generous gift.

出色 After graduating from the outstanding students back to his alma mater, President Kabritz is also very happy. After all, graduates mix well and schools are honored. In every subsequent university, the name of a famous alumni must be written into the school's introduction, which is both a manifestation and a means to attract outstanding freshmen.

Heyder is not a bad judge as East Frisian Lambert. Because, better than him, not without. However, he is better than Haedel, mostly because his family is a big aristocrat, and his natural starting point is much higher than ordinary people. There is nothing to brag about.

海 Heidel is different. Heidel's family is just a wealthier merchant family. After all, it is still civilian origin. Among the graduates of the University of Cologne, Haider is arguably the best mixed.

Generally speaking, college students of civilian origin, despite being sought after, are difficult to reach a high position. Because, in addition to the new regime such as East Frisian State, other established vassal states have a large number of established nobles in the country. These old noble families have many children and always have one or two outstanding ones. Therefore, senior positions such as the Prime Minister and the Grand Chancellor cannot be filled with civilian children. At the most, those college students of civilian origin will become the deputies of senior officials from the children of big nobles, or the judges of which small towns, rather than the pillars of a vassal state.

This is the basic situation of the Middle Ages, because the aristocracy was very strong, and they basically held all important positions. Only some less important positions will be reserved for civilians with strong abilities.

Like the army, except for Marin's army and other mercenaries, ordinary people are also very difficult to get ahead. Even in the mid-19th century, this situation was difficult to change. Civilian soldiers are at best non-commissioned officers. In the upward direction, it is the monopoly of the noble children. Knowing that in the mid-nineteenth century, ordinary people in Europe frequently revolutionized and sought opportunities. Those ruling classes had to compromise, before they had to allow civilians to enter high-level political circles and high-level military forces.

Therefore, a college student of ordinary citizenship, such as Haider, can become a judge of a country in the country. In this era, it is absolutely rare. In addition, Marin promised that Jeffrey would retire in the future and push him to become the prime minister.

With the efforts of Heidel, President Kabritz finally agreed to speak to the graduates at this year's graduation ceremony ...

Then, the graduation ceremony of the University of Cologne in 1500 became the stage where Heidel displayed ...

Haider this time put on a very saucy gold silk robe, glasses with gold frame, a college and successful personage ...

According to Marin's script request, after Haider briefly greeted the students on the stage, he began to brag about it. He told the students that he was just a civilian college student who had nothing. A few people wanted to hire him to do things, but he just let him work as an assistant to a barrister. But after all, this assistant is actually a errand. Similar to those apprentices in the arts and crafts industry, it takes at least 7 years to barely graduate. Then, he was sent to an unknown town to serve as a judge, or to become a legal assistant to some big names, and began to struggle hard. Maybe, by the age of 40, he will become a barrister or a little famous judge.

However, since Marin met, his life has changed dramatically. Just a short while later, Heidel was directly appointed by Mayn, the "thirsty and thirsty" Marin, as the mayor of Den Burg, and oversaw the government and justice of Texel Island, and obtained great opportunities for exercise.

When Marin took East Frisian, he directly appointed it as the judge of the East Frisian State, and highly valued it ...

Then, Haider proudly told the students that his salary is one gold coin a day, and he still has it on holidays. In other words, Heidel's salary is as high as 365 gold coins a year ... Not only that, Marin also provided him with housing and carriage for free. Even the salaries of the coachmen and the feed expenses of the horses are officially reimbursed ...

待遇 This treatment immediately shocked all the students present. You know, in this era, the daily salary of ordinary Germans was only 2 Finneys, and the craftsmen were only 3 Finneys. The average clerk's daily salary is like four or five Finneys. Reaching 12 fennies, or 1 shilling per day, is definitely a senior official. Of course, after becoming a senior official, salary is no longer an important part of their income. As for the reason, everyone knows ...

Their top students of the University of Cologne, when they graduated, their salary was like 6 Finneys every day. As an assistant to those barristers, there are only 3 Finneys per day, which is similar to those craftsmen.

Heidel has a daily salary of 60 Finneys per day, but envy the group of medieval college students who have not yet left the campus. Of course, they also know that even if they went to East Frisian the same, they would not be treated so high. This is because Heidel is already the Chief Justice of East Frisian Land. If you go in the first place, I am afraid it is not so well paid.

Heidel is also very aware of this, so according to Marin's script requirements, he told the students-as long as they go to East Frisian, there are many positions, but not only that, their daily salary was as high as 1 Make it twice as high every day.

Speaking of positions, East Frisian is indeed too much. Now the five cities in East Frisian, only Heidel mayor Orich, is a professional. The mayors of other cities are not very professional. Even the mayor of Norden is just a semi-illiterate with a grade of 2 at the elementary school level. It is difficult to read even the decree of the country.

Marin had long planned to replace the mayors of five cities with college students. Even as the mayor of Orich, Marin plans to switch to a full-time job instead of having Heidel part-time. Because Heidel is really busy.

但是 Not only do the 5 mayors need college students, the judges in 5 cities, but also professional college students. Because college students who have studied law systematically are bound to be more professional. How, like now, can only be solved by some clans who do not understand the local legal provisions ...

So, Marin authorized Heidel to throw a lot of money and flicker his schoolmates. Anyway, in East Frisian Land, the mayor, the judge, the tax officer or whatever, there are so many positions, but there is only a shortage of people ...

At the same time, every college student who is willing to go, immediately allocates a room (carriage), pays 1 shilling to start every day, and each person divides many fields (100 acres) ...

Afraid that the students did not know the income of Tianmu, Haider mysteriously told the students that if the fields were divided, the annual income would not be less than 2000 gold coins ...

This is the most scary place. According to salary, Haider only gets 365 gold coins every year. However, because Marin rewarded him with 100 Eugrams (200 acres) of land, and now he earns 4,000 gold coins every year, this is where he really gets rich ...

The graduates of the University of Cologne from the nobles are okay. The college students from the civilians and the college students from the noble nobles are a little dizzy ...

The high salary of 1 shilling a day before made them fascinated. Nowadays, the annual gift of 2000 Gulden gold coins is knocked down, and most people can't stand it ...

So, many college graduates who had already gone, many people are very excited ...

As a result, more than a dozen college students from civilians and small noble families came to Heidel for consultations that night ...

In this regard, Heidel was enthusiastically entertained, and ordered Marin to send his court chef to make a very rich and delicious cuisine for the schoolmates, and the schoolmates had a good dinner with the guests.

After the banquet, Heidel warmly invited these students to go on a field trip to East Frisian. Then, the fare is reimbursed. Before the separation, Haider put a small bag of gold coins in the name of "reimbursement of round-trip fare in advance" for each student who came to consult. Although there are not many, there are only 10 gold coins, but it is definitely enough for them to go back and forth between Cologne and East Friesland by car, there is still a lot of surplus ...

So, when Heidel returned, there were 13 schoolchildren, they were ready to go and asked to go with Heidel ...

Basically, the 13 graduates of the University of Cologne are all tempted. Later, they did become officials of the East Frisian Land. They were also dubbed "Thirteen Elders" by Marin, and they were later reused.

Although it was all lured, Marin didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Because when they just graduated, they had no loyalty targets, nor did they lure them over, which was normal. Only those who have a master and are lured away by others are morally problematic. After all, there is nothing wrong with a college graduate seeking high pay. Besides, in which country do civil servants not love money? Yue Fei's "Civilian does not love wealth", I am afraid it only exists in fantasy ... As long as the supervision is proper, these people will not stretch their hands, and Marin will not care about it. Moreover, the land that Marin gave is enough for their family to spend a lot ...

Just, Heidel is very dissatisfied, why? Because, Marin had promised that if he recruited 20 people, UU reading www.uukanshu.com would give his second son an unheralded jazz title.

In this regard, Marin stated that this promise is not only valid this year. If Haider can recruit 7 people next year, plus 13 this year, and make up 20 people, this condition will still take effect ...

Of these 13 college students, 4 of them studied law. Naturally, they were handed over to Heidel for management. They followed Heidel's studies for a year or two, and then arranged to serve as judges in several cities. The other three students who studied administrative management also stayed in Orich first, followed Heidel to learn to deal with Orich's government affairs. After one or two years of internship, they were released as mayors. Two of them studied finance, naturally following Kohler.

In fact, their knowledge is much stronger than that of Kohler. For this reason, Kohler was very nervous, for fear they would grab their own jobs. But Marin told Kohler that although others were talented, Marin did not trust him. Therefore, Kohler still has to be the finance minister to monitor the flow of funds. Even if the two college students were very bull, Kohler was the last one to sign it. Because he is Marin's confidant.

Only the four who studied literature, Marin didn't know how to arrange it. In the end, they were all arranged to be Marin's secretary, and followed along to learn. If you exercise, you can put it outside. Of course, because they haven't studied administration, Marlint asked them to consult and learn from those who have studied management. In this way, these four people can stay outside to exercise for a few years, and they can also be released. At the same time, their presence can also properly liberate Marin. For example, for some notices, Marin does not have to write with Jeffrey in person, it can be handed over to the students of these two literature departments, and it can be submitted to Marin for review afterwards. Even Marin's speech can try to write these four secretaries. The premise is that the four of them must first adapt to their own style ...
