"Your Majesty the wise emperor, I fully agree with you."
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "coercion is only inferior, but we can lure."
After coughing, Bai Xiaowen said, "those masters basically don''t need any money. Ordinary money doesn''t attract them much. However, I have another thing I can take out my hand... Title."
"If the masters of the imperial capital are willing to come to Baishi city to teach the top skills of various industries, I am willing to grant them the Northern Territory as a private territory. Every master who has achieved success in his apprenticeship starts with a Viscount... It should be very attractive."
"Viscount of real power?" Nicholas IV raised his heavy eyebrows slightly.
Real aristocrats must have their own fiefdoms, which is the biggest difference from nominal aristocrats.
However, the enfeoffment of new real power aristocrats means cutting off their own land and weakening their own strength. So neither the royal family nor the great nobility are willing to do so.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and replied, "I have this plan, but I need your Majesty''s consent."
This also involves the new deal law of the Empire. The old aristocrats had the right to split their fiefdoms and enfeoffed new real aristocrats, but the new aristocrats could not. Many of the powers of the new aristocracy were taken back by the Empire, and the first night power was only a trivial one.
The new deal of imperial reform is to change the original enfeoffment empire into a centralized empire. No wonder the old nobles in Xisha province rallied against it.
Therefore, Bai Xiaowen''s enfeoffment of the land in the north to others requires the consent of Nicholas IV to take effect.
Nicholas IV nodded slightly and said, "titles and fiefdoms really look attractive. Maybe they can really attract masters in various industries."
Nicholas used the word "maybe" because the conditions in the north are too dangerous. The fiefs are poor mountains and rivers where birds don''t shit, and a group of zombies... It''s uncertain whether they can lure the masters to join. If we change it into a fief in the central provinces, we will have a much greater grasp.
Bai Xiaowen then said, "I don''t ask the masters to live in the North all the time. After they reach Baishi City, they can recruit apprentices while working. After the first batch of apprentices graduate, they can get their due fiefdoms and titles, and then return to the imperial capital to enjoy the life of the upper class society as aristocrats."
Nicholas was slightly surprised and then nodded, "the conditions are very favorable."
It''s only a few years to take a group of apprentices out of school. After several years of hardship, even the top masters in various industries will be moved to change their real power aristocratic status.
"Your Majesty has agreed to my plan?" Bai Xiaowen said.
"I have no reason to refuse," Nicholas replied.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Bai Xiaowen''s prepared speech doesn''t have to be taken out. It seems that Nicholas also saw the importance of the north.
The old-fashioned aristocracy was destroyed, the drow elf empire was blocked, and there was a plague Lord force left. Where can we go if we want to attack the surface world?
The underground passage of bosuwei gold mine has been sealed. They can only take the old road - North, the territory of the remnant!
At that time, the northern provinces are bound to become the front line of the confrontation between the two forces. At this time, the strength of the northern regions is what the Imperial Emperor Nicholas IV is happy to see.
What''s more, Nicholas IV still has many advantages over Bai Xiaowen. Apart from others, this batch of plague killer drugs is very urgent.
"Now, we need to think about the next important question... How to deal with the drow elf Legion infected with the necromancer plague," Bai Xiaowen said.
"These underground monsters have become the root of the plague and should be completely eliminated," said Nicholas IV. "I have ordered the imperial Legion to surround the castle of bersuvius and be ready. They must not spread the plague virus wantonly!"
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "I think I can talk to the drow fairy''s mistress."
……
Bossuvius castle is currently in a semi abandoned state.
The plague of the dead itself will not destroy the buildings, but the awakened people of the divine court deliberately created an explosion bucket to ensure that the plague virus spread throughout the site in the shortest time - the strong impact of the explosion made this century old castle crumble.
The present bossuvius castle was occupied by the drow elves.
Cynthia, the drow fairy mother, fled the castle area immediately after the explosion began, but then she found that the explosion soon stopped and the green fog spread to the whole city.
Cynthia''s mother said she was no stranger to the green fog.
The necromancer plague virus of plague territory.
As an underground force, the drow elf Empire has had many contacts with the plague territory. Of course, the famous necromancer plague is clear - after all, the drow elves are also living creatures and are also affected by the necromancer plague. If we were not prepared for this virus, the drow elf Empire would have been swallowed up by the plague Lord.
After Cynthia''s mother confirmed her safety, she began to worry about her army.
This army is the strongest force of Cynthia''s mother and the foundation for her to control the knossolis tribe. There is no doubt about its importance.
Since her life was no longer threatened, Cynthia''s mother naturally rushed back to the castle area and commanded the battle again.
The drow elves had an advantage in military strength. The return of Cynthia''s mother made the army''s heart stable quickly. Other human soldiers, of course, could not resist and were killed one after another.
Finally, the drow elves took control of the crumbling castle. After simple repair, they settled down temporarily.
Then they began to use the old method - Spider elf toxin injection to fight poison with poison and expel the plague virus of the dead.
However, the results were not ideal - no matter how hard the drow elves tried, the old methods did not work. Spider toxin could only barely inhibit the spread of the plague virus, but could not eliminate it completely.
Cynthia''s mother panicked.
She finally thought of a question.
……
"Ms. Cynthia, you should have thought of it for a long time," said Bai Xiaowen, sitting obliquely on the back of the chair in a lazy attitude with sarcasm. "The Lord of the plague has long known that the drow elves have the means to fight against the plague of the dead. Of course, he has enough confidence that he chose to use the plague of the dead to plot against you."
"This confidence comes from the strengthening... Or improvement of the plague virus of the dead." Bai Xiaowen concluded with a sentence.
Cynthia''s mistress could not see joy and anger on her face and said coldly, "arrogant man, if you were underground, your attitude would have been fed to spiders."
"I need to remind you that don''t take the example of drow elves being superior to men. I''m a fake human," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "If you feed me to spiders, you won''t be afraid of the collapse of knossolis tribe?"
