Vol 9 Chapter 38: Rodrigo Cilops


At the mansion of another presidency, Hiplops was a little surprised when he saw Hicktas visiting the door, and asked with a smile: "Why, you came to elect the district chief?"
Hiktas shrugged helplessly: "Master Rotating Chairman, since the announcement by His Majesty in the afternoon, the Senate is like boiling water and has not stopped arguing during the meeting. When I just came here, I saw several The streets are full of carriages ... Everyone is looking for help in the election of the district chief, how can I stand by and watch. "
"But you haven't even become the Chief Executive of the town. The post of Regional Chief is too early for you." The reason why Cypros said so directly is that after Syracuse was conquered, As the governor of Sicily during the war, he was able to stabilize the order of the once largest Sicilian city-state in a relatively short period of time, and Hiktas did a lot. However, after the Chief Executive of Syracuse has not yet been determined, and during his temporary administration, he also received the strong assistance of Hiktas, so the two sides have established a good working relationship. Later, Hiktas was transferred to Turui, and he was also taken care of by Cypress many times, and the two became friends.
"Of course not for me, but for Syracuse." Hiktas said seriously: "You also know that since Lord Adrianks served as the chief of Syracuse, in recent years he will La Cuzha is managed very well. My relatives and friends in Syracuse also praised him many times in letters. I was thinking that now the development of Syracuse is just on the right track. Instead of choosing a Syracuse citizen, An unfamiliar veteran who does not know the situation of the Syracuse region as the chief executive of the region might as well choose Lord Adrians. He should be able to make the region develop better, so I come to visit you specially. I want your support. "
"Hiktas, I have said you several times. You are now a veteran of the Kingdom of Dionia. Do n’t just stare at Syracuse. Speak for Syracuse's interests. Keep your eyes on. Be broader and pay attention to other towns so that you can get the approval of your Majesty and other veterans! "Sipnos reminded solemnly.
"I heard what you said, and I'm slowly changing. It's been a few days about 'whether I want to accept the Frentani's request, form an alliance with them, send a navy to help them patrol the coast, get rid of pirates' 'The proposal, I also speak ... But Syracuse is my foundation, if I do not speak for its benefit, the people in my hometown will scold me! "Hiktas said sincerely.
At the end of Cypros, I saw that he understood, and then directly answered the election question he mentioned: "Whether Adriennes can become the chief executive of the Syracuse region, you do not need to worry about it, he is to establish One of Dionysian ’s patriarchs is older than me and has deeper connections. Not to mention the others, the veterans in the army will definitely support him fully. The key question now is whether he is willing to become tin. Chief of the Rakuza Region, you might as well convince him than convince me. "
Seeing that Hiktas wanted to speak, Hiplops waved his hand and said, "You do n’t have to worry. After the meeting, your Majesty has discussed with our five rotating chairmen. In order to be fair, we decided to postpone the final election to 10 days. After that, the veterans who served as chief executives in the towns were able to rush back in time to participate in this important meeting. "
"Then I can rest assured." Hiktas breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's better to care about yourself than to care about yourself first. After the addition of the District Chief Executive this time, the post of Kingdom Town Chief Executive will be open to the Kingdom's intermediate officials. By then, the competition for the position of Town Chief Executive will become very fierce. Or the deputy administrator of the town? "Siprous asked with concern.
"Administrative deputy of Amendolara." When speaking of his post, Hiktas complained with a look of face: "Amendolara's place, don't look at the small area of ​​the town, there are quite a lot of things, the most important thing is ... … Most of the citizens there broke into the town hall directly and wanted to reflect the problem to us. The pavement slabs in front of the house were cracked ... what caused the collapse of the canals in their fields ... and so on, all of them It's trivial, you can't punish them for being rude, and try to help them solve the problem, because they all stick to the little disc on Bolton— "
"Dionian Alliance Founder's Medal." Hiplops nodded, expressing understanding: "The old citizens of Amendolara have a special status in the kingdom. Even if I arrive in Amendolara, the situation is better than you. Not much, but after three years of special training in Amendolara, I believe that you are not only familiar with the laws of the kingdom, but also proficient in various township affairs. After the election of the district chief, the town chief There will be many vacancies in your position. You must seize this opportunity and seek a post of town administrator as soon as possible. This will be conducive to your future development in the kingdom politics! "
Hiptas was moved by Sipulous's heartfelt words, and he said earnestly: "Thank you for your reminder! I will definitely strive for promotion, and I hope you will give me more support!"
Hiplops did not hesitate, and promised immediately: "Of course I will speak for you, but in the end, the appointment of the town chief must be decided, but you have performed well in Amendolara. I believe that as the town chief Job issues are not big. "
"That would be great!" Hiktas looked excited.
"Oh, how is your nephew, Samoratis, now?" Hiplops asked.
"Hey, as before, he is not interested in becoming a kingdom government official, but just wants to be an officer. Now he is working as a firefighter in Amendolara, and focuses his energy on military training."
"Everyone has different ambitions. He can become a legionnaire soldier. If he can be promoted to the legionary commander in the future, he will also have the opportunity to enter the Senate. This is also a good way ..." Hiplops said with a smile.
"But as soon as the war broke out, who knows what would happen ... hmm ..." Hiktas sighed.
"Well, it's getting late, you go back quickly, staying with me for too long, and the impact on you and me is not very good." At this time, Cypros said softly.
Hiktas didn't hesitate, stood up, saluted Hiplops respectfully, and turned out of the mansion.

The quiet situation in the country also made Davis, who had always seemed calm and relieved, let him receive his friend Plato, a university student from Athens, in a more relaxed mood.
