The chief of staff threw a list in front of Lucas, almost slamming it onto his plate. This article was first published by
"You can choose anyone here," he said aggressively, "one hundred and eighty-three super-powered slaves and five hundred attendants."
The second time Lucas was about to fork the meat, he failed to finish it. He stared at the secretary in shock, wondering why he was so mad as he gritted his teeth.
However, the Secretary took the opportunity to immediately withdraw the list.
"Don't know how to choose?" He said, "Okay, I'll help you choose."
"You are right, Mr. Lucas. I believe that my choice is better than your own choice. I will give you the most suitable match. Creating a family is a systematic project, and you can't do it if you are not a veteran. In one place Without thinking, the whole family would have to shut down.”
"It's the right thing to leave it to me. You will have to break your head and bleed yourself." He babbled. "I suggest that after you get these people, pardon some of them as slaves and give them freedom. This will Make them more loyal to you, and then kill a group of people. This will make them fear you and not dare to deceive you. By combining kindness and power, you will soon be able to establish authority - this is not difficult, all nobles Isn’t that what they do? Even if you’ve never eaten pork, haven’t you seen a piglet running? I’ll mark those things that can kill you on the list.”
Lucas opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he gave up and allowed the Secretary of State to do what he wanted.
But the secretary became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke: "There is also a manor, I have chosen it for you. It is in the southern hemisphere, on the subcontinent, within 30 degrees south latitude. The owner has a small manor there, with attached land. Two hundred hectares, with mountains, rivers, forests and everything. Even the manor and the land, including the collection and slaves in the manor, are all yours."
"Training camp, yes, there is a training camp. How can a nobleman not have a training camp? This is so weird and a shame! I must build one for you!"
"Place is not a problem. There are so many wild stars in the center of the galaxy that we can never count them. They are as numerous as meteorites. Whether you buy one, grab one, or occupy one, it is very simple for you. The only trouble is that it takes a long time to transform the planet. It will take three to five years or even ten years anyway - using a spaceship or a mobile fortress as a temporary training camp, yes, this is a good idea."
"Let me think about it. The wind corridor fortress abandoned fifty years ago is in the owner's antique collection and can be used for this purpose. The main parts of his power system and weapon system are intact and only need to be upgraded and repaired. , and then install a jumping device, you can use it as a mobile mother nest. The transition period of ten or twenty years is enough for you. Once you find a suitable planet and complete the transformation, you can move the entire training camp directly there. alright."
"After solving the problem of location, there is the problem of personnel. You don't need to worry about the selection of trainers. The gifts for tomorrow's morning ceremony have already been determined. Creston, Stan, and now you, each of your families Everyone will be given a high-level trainer, so I only need to add a few mid-level and low-level trainers to the list of attendants I give you - and the attendants who professionally manage the training camp must also be added, without them The training camp is not fun. I will choose someone with experience to support you in the camp as soon as possible."
"In addition, the source of child slaves is not a problem. Professional slave purchasing can handle everything for you. This matter is actually very simple. A reliable slave company plus a reliable buy-back price - don't count on Miss Gu. What use is the slave company opened? That company is just selling dog meat over sheep's heads. It can't sweep out a single useful child slave. It's a waste of time to find them, and you might get donations. At the beginning, you can talk to them The Dulan family purchases from the same slave company. I will notify the purchasing department and let them share the same repurchase contract with you, which will undoubtedly greatly reduce your turnover costs."
"Finally, it's education's turn. You have to run the family's higher slave academy. It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. Education is a big key. This is a bit troublesome. It is impossible for the master to directly give you a ready-made school. And the new Schools always lack foundation and cannot be established without at least a few decades of hard work - the only option is this, you go and open the school first, ask the Dulan family's education office for a list of subject settings, and recruit students one by one. Teacher. It doesn’t matter if you can’t all the teachers come from slaves for the time being. You can definitely recruit from outside for some natural subjects. After the school is built, I will find a few families famous for education to assist you and help you train teachers. Excellent teachers are regularly exchanged every year to teach in the past.”
"Okay, now you have a manor, a training camp, a school, and a system of guards and attendants. You already have everything a noble should have. Now we should talk about the most important things. The important question is, what should you do to feed your family and feed so many people."
"Slave school is a traditional money-making project. Many families will auction and distribute the remaining graduates to subsidize their families. But for you, water from afar cannot quench your thirst for nearness. You yourself are not enough slaves. At least there won't be any within a hundred years. The rich can go to the auction block.”
"Secondly, you are a seventh-level combat type. You can get free rewards by accepting commissions, but this is not a long-term solution. It is too low-level for a noble to make money by being a thug. You must get a piece of your own as soon as possible. Your own territory is the foundation for the family to stand for generations to come - of course, one of the foundations."
"It's not difficult at all. The universe is so big, and there are so many uncontrolled wild places. With the blessing of the master, just go ahead and fight, and whatever you kill will be yours. It's not difficult, really. Very simple."
"I have notified you to be removed from the Guards. You should report to the Guards immediately. You can take a casual position, or you can work with them. You can look for opportunities wherever the Guards go. This will ensure that you have no worries about logistics. , you can advance, attack, retreat or defend. Once you find an unowned star field, take your vassals and fight in! Conquer them, let their king lick your feet, submit to you, be your attendant, and pay tribute to you - —It doesn’t matter if there is an owner, you can still grab it without fail!”
"Grass bandits and pirates are not protected by the code at all. No matter how you kill, loot and conquer, it is just. The mud-legged people in the acropolis who have no backers are no different from the stray dogs without an owner. Even if you kill and rob, you will not If anyone stands up to object, the Holy See will not say anything. If you are unlucky and accidentally touch a dog from which family, it doesn't matter, the owner will come forward to make peace for you.
"In short, don't be afraid. Do it boldly and confidently. Your master will support you from behind. Through battles, you can capture more and more super-powered slaves and gather more and more powerful vassals - yes, you are only the lowest now. In theory, a first-level noble cannot accept family vassals, but the theory is just a theory. If a family surrenders to you, don't hesitate and accept them immediately. It's just that the master will not give you protection for the time being. It's no big deal. Based on the master's treatment of you My favor, as long as you make a serious contribution and meet the minimum standards, your families who secretly accept vassals will be recognized in a few years."
"The era of individual heroism has long passed. Mr. Lucas, fighting alone will never end well. You must find ways to recruit more vassals and do everything you can to build your kingdom of power. Touting justice is* *Things related to Silk and Rangers, those who can dominate others with their power are the noble ones."
Lucas was stunned when he heard the meat, but he never had time to put it in his mouth.
"It's amazing," he said, "I never knew there was so much knowledge here."
"There's a lot of knowledge here," the secretary said proudly. "Without the guidance and help of professionals like us, those roving poor country bumpkins would run around like headless chickens. Even if they work in vain for a lifetime, they won't be able to do anything. I can’t do anything even if my head is broken and bleeding.”
"Thank you so much." Lucas looked at the director seriously, "Can I ask why you are willing to help me like this? Isn't it all for the master's face?"
The secretary waved his hand: "Are you kidding? Of course it's just for the master's face, otherwise it's up to you?"
After finishing speaking, he paused for a while, and then suddenly sighed: "Speaking of batch after batch of slaves coming out of training camps and schools, I have seen too many, but they can become nobles in one fell swoop. , you seem to be the first. From this perspective, you are indeed our pride——"
"Let's see how the list is prepared. It should be ready." The secretary suddenly changed the topic, as if he had never said this before.
Soon, a junior attendant came in with the list and bent down to report to the chief secretary in a low voice.
The secretary-general was listening absentmindedly, then suddenly said: "No?"
The inferior attendant explained a few more words in a low voice, then stood aside. The secretary raised his eyebrows and looked at Lucas.
"It seems that I need to talk to you about a more basic issue, Mr. Lucas." He said, "I heard that you did not touch the female slave in the dressing room?"
"Procreation and descendants are the foundation for a family to stand for generations - of course, one of the foundations. A nobleman without descendants is considered a family of Namenzi? A nobleman who died in one generation is not a nobleman but a laughingstock. I don't think Mr. Lucas has any There are living relatives who can give you an heir - and even if you do, you can't find them, you have to rely on yourself. So, in order not to make yourself a laughing stock, I think you should take the matter of childbearing very seriously. .”
"Of course, I understand that given your energy level, sleeping with any female slave may not be a pleasant experience worth looking forward to, but this is not unsolvable. There are actually many ways to get the best of both worlds. Sleeping with a slave can't be counted. What, everyone likes to do this, but no matter what, they will remember that they cannot let their female slaves take the risk of pregnancy easily, especially when they still need her. Female slaves are the most cost-effective and suitable for watering fertile fields for breeding. ah--"
