Back at the castle, Evan didn't bother to rest and called all the officials over.

Officials such as Feynson, Phyllis, Darby, and Matthew have been preparing for a long time now, and everyone is holding a roll of parchment in their hands.

"Mr. Alvin, all the serfs and civilians who arrived at the Elf Corps have been placed properly." Felson Hui reported.

He then handed Alvin all the transaction list that appeared in statistics, including all the things that happened in the territory after Alvin left.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period of time when I was not here." Alvin took the transaction list and opened it to look carefully.

In the past half a month, everything in the territory was implemented according to Alvin's plan, and the elf cultivation area, Pure White Town and the land reclamation matters were still proceeding in an orderly manner.

Of course, more specific matters must be reported by the heads of various departments in person. Just as he was checking the territorial affairs, other territorial officials arrived and sat at their own positions at the round table.

"Now, each department will report on the recent situation." Alvin habitually took a sip of the juice and looked at the officials below.

Originally, at this time, Finance Minister Phyllis would be the first to speak. After all, the finances of the territory are closely related to the development of the territory. Only by clarifying the financial situation can we formulate the next development plan.

However, this time, Matthew, the head of the forest ranger, was the first to stand up. He left his seat and suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground, "Sir Alvin, I have something to report."

Looking at Matthew kneeling on one knee, Sut and Peter couldn't help but raise their heads, and their faces showed contemplation.

"Yeah, let's talk."

"Mr. Alvin, I want to plead for my former partner."

After hearing Matthew's words, Suter and Peter both showed such a look.

"In this battle at the Iron Blood Fortress, the Iron Blood Knights, as an accomplice of the Iron Blood Marquis, did make a big mistake."

"At that time, in the subsequent battles, they had already recognized the true face of the Iron Blood Marquis and played an important role in pacifying the Iron Blood Fortress."

"I would like to ask Lord Alvin to forgive their crimes and retain their knighthood. They are willing to be loyal to Lord Alvin and serve the Elves!"

Matthew buried his head very low. As the deputy commander of the Iron Blood Knights, he didn't want to see his former companions be destroyed like this!

He knew that as prisoners, even if the knights of the Iron Blood Knights chose to rebel in the battles later, being demoted to civilians was the best choice, and they would never be able to become knights again!

Now, he wants Lord Alvin to give them another chance. These knights are very excellent warriors, and the knights are their ultimate destination!

"Knight of the Iron Blood Knights" Alvin pondered, then looked at Suth and Peter.

The two looked at each other and stood up one after another, "Mr. Alvin, when the rebellion was finally quelled, some iron-blooded knights did take off their iron-blooded armor and save many civilians."

Matthew looked at the two people beside him, and his eyes showed a look of gratitude, "Mr. Alvin, I am willing to take these knights to guard the border of the Black Forest!"

"If so, I can really give them a chance."

"But before that, they must also be subject to corresponding judgment."

"If they really didn't commit a crime, I can keep their knight status and get them to join your ranger."

Alvin nodded. The Elf Corps did lack enough manpower. I believe that under the power of Chirulian, no one could conceal his crimes. "Of course, I will give them a fair judgment for other Iron Blood Knights."

"Thank you, Lord Alvin!" Matthew showed surprise on his face. After bowing again, he returned to his seat and sat down.

Next report is Phyllis. Due to the plan for the elves cultivation zone announced by Ivan, there have been a lot of orders for elves potions and elves food that elves received during this period.

The lords from the East and North areas have already been found, and the caravans and carriages led by the elves have not stopped at all in recent times.

This time, all the lords successfully captured the Iron Blood Fortress, and all the lords received a lot of financial supplements. In order to spend the winter, they also used this wealth to start buying food.

In the end, most of the gold coins flowed into the Elf Corps, which greatly supplemented the finances of the Elf Territory. With these fiscal revenues, Phyllis was also actively preparing for the resources needed for the winter.

"Well, it seems that the financial problems of the territory have been completely solved now." Alvin nodded. After having money, many plans can be put on the agenda.

Then, his eyes looked at Fessen, "How is the talent introduction plan of the Elf Leader?"

Talents are very popular at all times. Although Chunbai Town has established a very large workshop area, there are not many workshops, mainly because of the lack of various craftsmen.

"Mr. Alvin, I have begun to recruit a large number of craftsmen as you told me."

"The pharmacists who have come to visit the most recently are the ones who have been handed over to Master Ole to manage."

"The other craftsmen, stonemasons, bricklayers, etc., Master Toniel also summoned many, but the recruitment of blacksmiths was not smooth, and many blacksmiths were dedicated to the lords."

"In addition, among the civilians who came from the Iron Blood Fortress this time, there are many craftsmen. I have already focused on counting, which should be able to greatly supplement the workshop area."

Alvin nodded slightly. Among the many craftsmen, what he wanted the most was the blacksmith, so that he could carry out large-scale manufacturing of the elf balls.

Now, the prototype of the Elf League has been established, and as an important symbol of the Elf League, it is time to step onto the stage of history, which will greatly consolidate the status of the Elf League!

However, the number of qualified blacksmiths in this world is indeed very rare. In addition, without modern mechanical assistance, it is still very difficult to turn the cones into elves, and the requirements for blacksmiths are even higher.

Although during this period, the Elf Corps also recruited some blacksmiths, these blacksmiths only mastered the most basic forging technology, which is still very far from his requirements.

However, as long as you can provide professional teaching, these blacksmiths may still meet the requirements, but now they are suffering from the lack of a suitable teacher to teach these blacksmiths to improve their forging skills.

Although the Iron Armor Tyrannosaurus is able to do this job easily, this is also because the Iron Armor Tyrannosaurus itself's powerful power and control of flames are completely unable to convey its experience to those blacksmiths.

Alvin sighed slowly in his heart, "The next thing I can only expect is a blacksmith master among the civilians coming to the Iron Blood Fortress."

"Master Alvin, maybe I can help with this." Matthew suddenly spoke, "When I was in the Iron Blood Knights, I had dealt with the blacksmiths, and I could recognize them."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, you have a trip to the residential area. The blacksmith master is very important to the territory."

Alvin nodded, then looked at Uncle Darby, "How is the situation in the Ministry of Agriculture?"

For this era, agriculture is still the basis of territory construction, and most people still focus on food and clothing in their lives.

The main reason why the population cannot increase in this era is that the food production capacity is low. Towns with thousands of people in each territory need dozens of villages to provide food for them.

Each village has almost hundreds of people. Even if they are fully engaged in agricultural farming, they basically only plant the food needed by the same number of urban residents in front of them. The grain production capacity is really too low.

In this case, the lack of productivity will seriously affect the development of the territory. Only by solving the problem of food and clothing for most people can we liberate enough productivity and allow them to invest in the construction of the territory.

Now, this is what Alvin does, bringing the elves into agricultural production.

The output of just one person is enough to feed thousands of people, use as few farmers as possible to feed more people, liberate a large amount of manpower from the farmland, and turn it into workshop production!

"The autumn harvest task in the territory has been basically completed."

"Relying on this year's receipt, a large number of serfs have been successfully promoted to free people and sent to Pure White Town."

Darby reported the basic situation of the Ministry of Agriculture, "Mr. Alvin, what should we do with those serfs who have just arrived in the territory."

He had hesitation on his face. Normally, after serfs came to the territory, they would directly distribute tasks according to the situation. The most common tasks were naturally to reclaim wasteland.

But now it is winter, and it seems that the task of reclaiming wasteland is necessary to be put into use. After all, in winter, crops are very difficult to grow.

“The ordinary crops in farmland are indeed very difficult to grow.”

"But this is not absolute. In fact, some trees that like cold will grow better in winter."

Alvin smiled slightly and said, in the past winter, civilians and serfs in various territories would store enough food early and spend it in the cellar.

After all, in addition to the cold winter environment, they will also be attacked by the winter beast tide, which is not suitable for planting tree fruits.

This is actually a waste of labor to a large extent. During the past three months, civilians and serfs have basically been in a state of no work.

Without a job, it means that there is no income. Without an income, it will become poorer and poorer, so consumption capacity will be greatly affected. Their efforts at other times are simply to survive the winter.

However, this winter, Alvin did not intend to stop the civilians and serfs from work, and the order of the entire elves will not be greatly affected.

"Fruits suitable for planting in winter!" Darby was stunned.

The other officials also looked at Alvin at this time, and they also heard that the Lord Lord did not seem to have planned to stop Chunbai Town, even in winter.

"Yeah, that's right, the life of the Elf Leader this winter will be the same."

"Relying on the defense of the rangers and the protection of the knights, I can guarantee the safety of the territory this winter!"

"You all have to convey this matter, especially Phyllis. I need you to put out a part of your territory budget to ensure that the gang members can live a normal life in the winter."

Alvin affirmed the speculation of these officials. Seeing this, the officials looked at each other and showed solemnity on their faces, which was also a very big challenge for all the officials in the territory.

"Okay, let's talk about the specific situation later. Is there anything else to say?" His eyes glanced at the other officials present.

Seeing that no one said anything, Alvin coughed lightly and continued, "If so, I will announce another thing."

"In addition to the nine departments that I already have now, I plan to add another new department, the Ministry of Education."

After hearing Alvin's words, everyone present was stunned for a moment. For example, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Construction were very easy to understand, but the word "Ministry of Education" made them a little unfamiliar.

"The Ministry of Education is a department that is specifically responsible for managing territorial education."

"Next, I plan to fully popularize education in the territory, especially those trainees and trainers, who must master the most basic reading and writing."

Alvin looked at the officials present very seriously. Popular education is the most effective means to promote the development of civilization in any era.

Now that the territory is rich in finance, it is also important for the development of the territory. It just so happened to start a plan to popularize education associations, which cost a lot but slow to achieve results.

The development of a modern industrial society is inseparable from a large number of high-quality workers with basic cultural qualities. At the same time, intern trainers need to master a lot of knowledge related to elves if they want to become formal trainers.

Although there are already a large number of trainee trainers in the territory, most of them are just illiterate villagers. In this case, they will definitely not be able to become a qualified trainer!

The most important step in his next trainer program is to give these trainers the qualities that are trainers.

"Mr. Alvin, do you want to teach everyone in the territory to read?" Phyllis was stunned.

If it were normal, she would definitely refute now, but this person came down many times and Lord Alvin seemed to have never done anything that he was unsure of, so she swallowed the words she said.

"Yes, the first thing we have to do is the first batch of literacy and literacy work in the territory."

"In this process, we need to build a large number of schools and recruit teachers, and this part of the fiscal expenditure, Philis, you are ready!"
