Chapter 667: St. Duke (below)

The mayor had no face on the spot.
Evaluate his subjects as saints in front of a king. Even if Ryan is known as a monarch, who can guarantee that Ryan will not be jealous?
This is a taboo!
If before, even if all the people in the town hanged their tongues on the spot, no one would sigh for them.
The mayor already wanted to kneel on the spot and beg for mercy.
Who knows, King Lane raised his hand directly, raised his left palm, and made a stop gesture.
He didn't bother Joseph, who had long been afraid of kneeling, and the mayor who was shaking, but turned back to Prince Varian and said, "Child, today I'm going to teach a lesson for your King."
"Father, you say, I listen." The little prince nodded earnestly.
"To be a wise king, first of all, you must never be jealous of a courtier who is more talented than yourself. Fighting in rounds is far less than your Uncle Anduin, who is the of war in the hearts of soldiers. , I'm not. Round strategy and internal affairs, I can't even learn the skin of your brother Duke, I only know that under his management, my nationals are living a better life. "
Ryan shrugged, shook his lips, and made a weird expression: "Well, if I were the kind of stupid king who could not be seen as a saint, then should I cut Anduin and hang Duke? Die, then let the people send me to the torture rack? Oh, no, before the people do, the women in the Windrunner's family will peel my skin first. Oh oh oh! That ’s too bad, I ’m not as good He died early in the Storm Fortress. "
Infected by Lane's quirks, when he heard Lane's words, Anduin next to him, as well as the accompanying ministers, and even the royal guard's face showed a relaxed smile.
They all knew very well that Ryan was probably not the strongest, but his character was absolutely noble.
"Take absolute trust in those who are good to the people, you know? Like your uncle Anduin and brother Duke."
Varian looked with admiration in his eyes: "I see!"
Lane's behavior opened the mayor and Joseph's mustard, and opened the box.
With their help, Lane knew more effectively how effective Duke's policies were.
At the moment when there is no need for war, Duke asked Lothar to order the army to take a temporary rest, and more than 70% of the soldiers were given a vacation, which allowed them to return to their hometown to participate in reconstruction.
There are only two requirements for these soldiers: first, they must return to the army to report after spring ploughing next year, otherwise they are treated as deserters; second, they must wear military badges when they work in their hometown, so that everyone knows that this is what the kingdom wants them to do Come back to help.
With the return of a large number of strong men, the reconstruction work has been accelerated.
At the same time, due to the grain harvest in the western wilderness, the people need not worry about starvation this winter. If only to this extent, Duke's name is not enough to be sacred in the hearts of the people.
Perhaps Duke's dedication to fighting Nasario was enthusiastically praised in Shangwu's kingdom. But for most civilians, that's just talk after dinner. What can really make them smile happily is only a stable and happy life.
Everyone had already planned for the worst.
In history, no large migration did not require a large number of dead. Weak old women and children will die of hunger, cold, or illness in the shortest time.
But Duke, who was a traverser, reversed all this with his modern conventional medical knowledge.
The concrete road that runs from east to west across the Elwynn Forest provides the most solid foundation for material transportation. Long before the resurgence of Stormwind Kingdom, Duke had Edwin Vancliff and Grian Stallman ready for everything.
Duke perfectly considers every aspect of food, clothing and housing.
The first is winter clothing. There is cotton in Azeroth. It was arranged in the western wilderness early, so that in the fall of 2 years, the Storm Kingdom harvested 200,000 kg of cotton. This is not an ideal number, but it allows most women and children to have a warmer winter.
The people of Azeroth still mainly use burlap clothes. In the past, they relied on the fire. When did they wear such warm clothes? Everyone wearing cotton coats praised this new winter coat that they called 'Duke Cotton Coat'.
In terms of food, in addition to basic dark bread, Duke has added a lot of meat. Those small fishing boats that were unable to sail were sent out early in the morning. With the help of Murloc, even in winter, they continued to catch fish.
High-fat whale meat and all kinds of fish are already ice cubes when they are sent ashore. Although heavier, they are better in preservation. Can be transported from Stormwind to East Elwynn Forest hundreds of kilometers away. People can add a great meal to their family at a very low price.
During the Great Retreat, the people almost lost all their belongings.
Duke can't make a lot of profit because it will breed corruption and laziness, so Duke's method is to work for work.
There is money to build a house for a neighbor.
There is wages for transporting food and cotton clothes to the village.
Women also have money to make cotton clothes.
Children help pay for javelin.
There is a salary for caring for an elderly or disabled person.
Soldiers on vacation are paid to participate in patrols.
There are still bounties and bounty for killing beasts or coming orcs.
Almost as long as you are willing to work, there is absolutely no need to worry about starvation. Duke also restricted the minimum and maximum wage systems to three years and hanged several gangsters who spurred prices.
And while everyone is unable to work during the winter, the arable land of each household for the coming year is allocated early and seeds are distributed.
Coupled with the fact that a large number of old nobles completely destroyed, more than 90% of the people have become free people. The nobles who were newly banned because of their martial arts were severely restricted in the proportion of taxes.
For a while, the mental outlook of the nation's citizens was renewed.
This is not limited to the town of Shanjin. Lane is a group of people all the way east. This is the case at Blackwell Farm and the East Valley Logging Site.
If there is any difference between places, it is that in Duke's territory, the implementation of various policies is more resolute. Ryan met Danil, the director of the East Valley Logging Field, and found that the former mage had become the factory director of a factory specializing in magic items.
The winter has not yet passed, but the heart of every nation is warm.
They look forward to the arrival of spring.
Because it was a new birth of a kingdom!
The deceased Archbishop of Alonzos Fau is a saint in the spiritual realm in the minds of the people, and Duke is a saint in the physical realm because of it, the people live an unexpectedly beautiful life.
Therefore, his name became sacred in the people's hearts. From this winter, the storm people used to add the word "holy" in front of Duke's name. (To be continued.)
