Chapter 207: Eugenics

Lawson Family Estate.

Sophia's study.

"Miss, the report you want!" Anna said holding a document.

Sofia moved her fingers towards Anna, indicating that the other person would read it to her.

After Anna cleared her throat, she slowly said: "Ethan Knight didn't do anything special after he saved that West.

They just arranged for him to work in his own territory and also provided funds for him to do medical research. "

"In terms of personnel arrangements, he transferred two people back from the North, one is Tibbers, and the social butterfly named Lili.

He trusted both of them very much, and Tibbs was arranged by him to go to Port Velen to be in charge of a brand new industry-fishing.

He has reached an agreement with the Tryon family, and they will be responsible for providing the fish. "

Hearing this, Sophia frowned: "Fishing? Do they have fishing boats?"

“That’s what I’m telling you, that Tibbers seems to have the ability to attract schools of fish.

I saw with my own eyes that as soon as he stood on the beach, the sea immediately boiled, and schools of fish came in overwhelming numbers like a storm. "

Anna still looked in disbelief when she thought of what she had seen.

Sophia smiled: "Interesting! Go on."

"Knight Ethan especially trusted the woman named Lili. Not only did he give him the fief, he also asked her to take over the internal affairs.

He even left a desk for her to work and study in his study room.

A treatment that even Papalia didn’t get.

And this Lili seems to be quite capable, and she makes big moves right from the start.

Anyone who dares to go against her will will be replaced without a word.

In exchange, they were all her relatives.

In this regard, Knight Ethan and Miss Angelina not only did not object, but also supported her openly and secretly, and even took the initiative to help her improve her prestige.

She has only been back for more than ten days, and now she is already talking about everything in the manor.

Also, she seems to be very good at cooking. Ever since she came back, Knight Ethan has come home on time for dinner every day.

It can be said that I am waiting for the meal, and I eat a lot at every meal. "

"That's right! It seems that Ethan still misses the old relationship." Sophia smiled: "Help me prepare a gift for that Lili. What does she like?"

"money!"

"Then buy her a house in Maro City!"

"Yes, miss!"

"Go on!"

"Yes!" Anna responded, and then said: "Ethan Knight has never cared much about business, and he has not even glanced at the coffee and clothing businesses.

However, he did go to the shipyard, and it was obvious that he was more optimistic about the inscription business.

In addition, he started spending a lot of money.

He suddenly invested in the gladiator industry and even personally coached the gladiators. He didn’t know why.

However, other than that, he spent his money on the territory.

They are building roads, bridges, warehouses, barracks, etc.

He is also building a school of his own and forcing residents to send children under the age of 15 to study.

Since the school is located in one of the villages, children from the other two villages have a longer distance to travel.

For this reason, he specially ordered two carriages with awnings to pick up and drop off those children.

And sent patrols to escort.

By the way, the treatment for those children is very good.

At the same time, in addition to the original patrols, he also stationed troops in three villages in the territory, rotating them once a month to protect the safety of the people in the territory. "

Having said this, Anna paused to take a sip of water, and then continued:

“In addition to the above, he also introduced tax reform.

Originally, the leaders had to hand over 80% of the harvest, and he could only keep 20%. Now he has changed it to a tiered system.

Anyone who can plant three acres of land can keep 30% of it for himself. If you plant four acres of land, you will keep 40%, and by analogy, you can keep up to 60%. "

Sophia smiled after hearing this: "He has calculated correctly. One person can only cultivate three to five acres of land."

"That's it!" Anna nodded: "Judging from the situation in our territory, that's it.

Finance Officer Angelol said that Knight Yisen took the initiative to give up the profits, probably to increase the enthusiasm of the people in the territory.

As for whether it will work, it's hard to say. "

"During the autumn harvest this year, pay attention to their situation." Sophia pursed her lips and said, "If this is possible, we will also switch to this model.

It doesn't matter if you make a profit. "

"Yes!" Anna nodded: "In addition, Knight Ethan rejected the planting plan we proposed.

He does not plan to grow any cash crops, only food crops.

And they also deliberately increased the amount of potato planting. "

Sofia didn't say anything about this, but asked: "What is the summary given by Financial Officer Angelol?"

“He said that Knight Ethan’s purpose is to seek stability.

Of course, he dared to do this because he had income from many other businesses.

Otherwise, the trip simply won't happen. "

Sophia nodded: "Is there anything else?"

"Yes!" Anna continued: "Since a fishing industry has developed on the land in Port Velen, Papalia began to urge us to speed up the resettlement of those families.

And he seems to realize that we are not doing this very seriously and has started to act on his own.

To this end, he applied for a low-interest loan of about 3,000 gold from Ethan.

Finance Officer Klotz also came forward to lend 9,000 gold to the Iris Society for him.

He is slightly out of control now. Should we give him a beating? "

"Don't do stupid things!" Sofia sighed: "Ethan is staring at those family members. That is his heartache. There is no way to stop a complete decoupling. Let them do it themselves!"

"Yes, Miss!" Anna also sighed: "However, Miss, you must find some way to encourage Knight Ethan.

I heard from Paparia that Knight Ethan seems to have no ideas lately.

Whenever anything happens, he only asks his subordinates to give him advice.

He accepted whatever opinions his subordinates put forward without even considering them.

But he wasn't like this before.

In the past, he always loved to show his intelligence in front of others, but now he seems to be very lazy, giving people a very stupid feeling.

If this continues, he will be ignored by his subordinates. "

"Haha!" Sofia laughed after hearing this: "Your worries are unnecessary.

He is the Great Sword Master, who dares to ignore him?

You don't have to worry about what others say, just watch what they do.

From what Ethan has done recently, you should understand that he has his own ideas.

In fact, being able to make others think you are stupid is truly smart.
