Chương 9: School
Next morning,
Xander, Dye and Reignald were training as usual. But today unexpectedly, the soldiers who visited the Kingdom of Ocawyth with Xander also joined the training. The training turned into the competition of who is strongest. In the end, Reignald won, after Reignald on 2nd place was Xander, Only Xander could hold for some time against Reignald as he was too strong, after Xander was Dye. Unexpectedly, the person who won the 4th number was a young man at around 17 years old. He was strong, only slightly weaker than Dye. That young man was Noah, he was Level 8 at that age. Xander was happy to find such an outstanding man. His talent was only slightly weaker than Dye. His swordsmanship was also good. He could become general if he trained hard. So Xander invited Noah to train with them both in Morning and Evening
"So Aldith Did something happened after our departure?"
"No your highness, Nothing serious just a few trivial matters." Xander nodded. He was sitting on his chair in his office and drinking tea.
Aldith paused for a few moments before speaking " Your Highness The recruitment of Army and police has been announced yesterday, in every village. The recruitment of Talented peoples for office work has also been announced."
After hearing Aldith Xander asked him "So, what was the reaction of the public after the announcement?"
"They were overjoyed, Most of them knew of the recruitment due to rumors we spread. I went outside today in the morning to get some fresh air. Everyone was enthusiastic, many people were training seriously here and there. I asked them of their opinion"
Xander curiously asked "What did they say?"
"They said that the Requirement of Recruitment is elaborated in detail and easy to understand. They also said that the competition will be fierce as most of the young people will try to join the army. They were all rigorously training. I also heard that the amount of people giving a trial for an army is very high."
"How many?"
"More than 150,000."
"So, many people will participate."
Aldith nodded. " Your highness, I also asked them the reason Why so many people want to join the Army which is the most dangerous job. Some of them said that they are participating because of a high salary. 10 silvers per month are extremely high for an average person, On top of that we are giving them a place to stay and food to eat. They can only earn around 1 silver per month on top of that they have to eat and live on their expenses. That's why the amount of people participating is so high.
Some of them said that they want to protect their loved ones. But most of them said that the reason
they want to join the Army is you."
Xander was slightly shocked." What.. me, but I didn't do anything worth to follow me. What did they say?"
"Everyone heard of your battle with Rank H alone. Maybe they heard from one of the soldier, they said they want to work under such a strong man that can kill Rank H alone and also said that they want to become strong by working under you."
Xander nodded "That's good, The more the better, we can select most outstanding soldiers and people who couldn't join can join other jobs. We don't have a shortage of work and if they still want to join the army then tell them that they will recruit the soldiers at regular intervals. And Did you announced the reward given to families having two or more children?"
"No, your highness I don't know how much reward should be given to those families?'
"That's true, we didn't discuss." Xander thought for some time before replying to Aldith "We have to give reward which is not too low but not too high. If it is too low, they will not take it seriously and if it is too high it will increase Domestic abuse."
Aldith became slightly confused upon hearing Xander " Your highness, I understand why the reward shouldn't be too low, but I didn't understand the reason for making reward too high."
"Well, Aldith, if someone is not able to give birth to a child and on top of that reward, is high, what will their husband do?"
"Your highness, you are saying they may beat their wife!"
"Aldith, I am not saying that all the men are like that, but there are some mentally ill persons. so we should take some precautionary steps to make this domestic abuse as less as possible. After we recruit some people to run our departments, we will make one new department for Law and Order. We will make some laws to lessen these types of violence and crimes. And on top of that to stop this violence and crime we are already recruiting police. Their only work is to resolve crimes and any matters in the kingdom."
"Yes your highness, but why not make this department with others and recruit along with side others?"
"As to run this department more literate and educated people with a strong sense of justice are needed. We will slowly groom them in schools and colleges."
"I understand."
"Aldith, I remembered from school, What is the status of the school building?"
"Your highness, both school, and army training Buildings are ready. The chairs and benches are almost ready. Around 11 rooms were ready for classes."
"OK, Announce everyone to attend school from Child to Old. Everyone means Everyone, no one is to be left behind. I am gonna make this kingdom center of scholars and martial artists." Aldith nodded. Xander started to explain the details for school " Aldith, This school will be called as Primary school. It will be a basic school that everyone has to attend. Recruit a few people who know to write and read. Everyone has to attend this class.
Also appoint teachers to train, Below the age of 40 everyone is to train their bodies for at least 2 hours, This class will be known as PT class.
After these two classes, everyone has a choice to choose different professions.
If one wants to join the army he can join classes for the army.
If one wants to become a scholar, he can join classes in this stream.
If one wants to join the production stream, he can attend those classes.
If one wants to become a doctor, they can join medicine classes
this will be all basics of their professions. After this, they have to join colleges. That we will discuss when their building will be ready.
In the future, we can recruit personnel from these colleges and schools. Divide people according to their ages. The school and college will be free for now."
Aldith was writing every word on the paper. He didn't miss anything.
"Your highness, what about training instructors for our army?"
Xander thought for some time "Hmm, First of all, Reignald will teach swordsmanship, find one veteran who excels in spear arts. One to teach archery. I will teach basic army tactics and formations. Dye will be a body training instructor. The training will be for around 1 month. Also you said that the former army soldiers, what was the amount of them?"
Aldith immediately replied " total 5000 soldiers, what about them?"
"Are they loyal to the kingdom?"
"Yes, they are very loyal, they can die for the safety of the kingdom."
"Hmm, let's make my personal squad which Dye will personally command them, they all will be my bodyguards and will be dispatched only during an emergency. They will be our trump card. Let's name it Heavenly army and individuals will be called Heavenly soldiers. I will personally train them. What do you say?"
Aldith excitedly replied "That's a good idea, your highness. They can personally escort you on any official business or trip."
Xander nodded. "Is there any more news you want to tell me?"
Aldith flipped pages in his hands. Aldith started to use papers for any important news or work. It made his work very easy. He stopped on one paper and started to read " Your highness, A message came from dwarfs that they will reach here tomorrow in the afternoon. All the arrangements of their settlement are already done." Xander nodded in agreement. "There is another news from the ambassador which went to Elf's village."
Xander became curious he was looking at Aldith with an expression that was full of curiosity. He directly asked him "What is the news?"
"He said that the negotiations with Elf's are successful. They agreed to migrate to our kingdom. They will reach in around 3 to 4 days."
Xander happily hit his lap "that's good news, make arrangements for their arrival and settlement. Just make temporary houses. And what about the village we are building in the mountains, what was the name of it?"
"There is no name of that mountain."
"No name, It is difficult to talk without a name. Let's name it" Xander started to think the name of the mountain, after some thinking, he thought of idea "As mountains are in West direction of our capital, let's name it Western Highlands and The village shall be called Western Village."
Aldith wrote it on his paper. Suddenly a suggestion came to his mind. "Come to think of it. We don't have the name of our capital city, your highness, why not you give it a name?"
"Hmm, our capital city should have a name. Yes, why not we do this. Let's simply call it Ehterac City."
Aldith nodded in agreement "Your highness, the construction of the village has already begun. The mining of Limestone has also started. In around 2 or 3 days the production of cement can be started. As for the bricks factory It is planned to be built on the outskirts of Etherac city. Its construction has been started. It can be completed in around 4 days. The raw materials to produce bricks have been collected in mass quantities. All the constructions are going smoothly."
"Good, good. So In around One week, we can start the construction of walls and important buildings. After Dwarfs settled tomorrow, we will discuss important stuff related to construction after recruitment. Also inform both Dwarfs and Elf's that they can participate in the trials if they want to join the army."
After few more important discussions Xander dismissed Aldith. In the evening Xander, Dye, Reignald and Noah trained to the limit. Xander levelled up one more time and became Level 11. Noah too levelled up one time and became Level 9.
