Count Stesa was flipping through a document in his study.
A piece of information about the witcher Lann.
He wears a pair of eye clamps on his face.
This kind of glasses is different from Lan En's hometown world. They do not rest on the ears. Instead, they are clamped on the bridge of the nose by shrinking the angle like a compass.
Frowning and taking off his glasses, the handsome and powerful middle-aged man murmured thoughtfully.
"This mutant is not normal."
For people like him, everything you want to know in the kingdom can always be known in detail. .
Even with the intelligence system supported by Nilfgaard, he can always get a rough idea of things outside the kingdom.
So, even if the order to collect intelligence was issued in the morning, he had already obtained a "book" that was neither thin nor thick in the evening.
This is Lan En’s detailed information.
Such operational efficiency and operational results are considered to be at the top level among Temeria’s official intelligence organizations.
What Stesa actually uses is Temeria’s official intelligence organization.
Very different from the speculations of many people who are far away from politics, the truth in this world is often more complicated and absurd.
The political conflict between Count Stesa and His Majesty the King is not as incompatible as most people imagine.
The fact is that whether it is an earl or a king, their orders are transmitted through the bureaucratic service system of the entire kingdom.
The conflict of political opinions between them will not lead the earl to establish another administrative system to confront the king. What is the difference between that and splitting Temeria
The power confrontation between them is expressed in the struggle for their voice and control in various bureaucratic departments.
Of course the bureaucracy should listen to the king, but the earl’s inheritance rights, funds, and blood inheritance are all there.
The feudal kingdom cannot ignore these things.
So in Temeria’s administrative system, there will always be departments that ignore each other, or even undermine each other and hold each other back.
Because in these departments, the king’s voice and the earl’s voice have different proportions.
Even within the same department, there will always be internal disagreements.
The boss of the department belongs to the king, but the second boss belongs to the earl. What should the people under him do when dealing with Nilfgaard-related affairs
I really think the boss can say You can get rid of the second child with just one sentence
Since ancient times, how many bosses have been ignored by the second child?
In the end, you still have to use your own resources, backstage, and intelligence They all pulled out and fought each other to get out.
Foltest is a powerful person, even Stesa must admit this.
But Count Stesa also knew that he would not be killed suddenly by the king.
Because he now represents not only a force, but also a trend of thought.
A trend of thought that moves closer to a "more civilized and more advanced" social system.
If you are still there, then the power brought by these thoughts gathers around you, which is tangible and has ways to deal with it.
As long as Foltest releases the news of "suppressing Count Stesa" from time to time, the people will think that the ideological trend itself has been suppressed.
Put up a target and let it represent an idea. Then the victory over this target is the victory over the invisible thought.
Foltest is extremely skilled at this technique.
But once he is gone, these thoughts will spread wantonly because there is no one to control them, and because they have no entity, they cannot be easily attacked.
The people and forces that he has gathered and are attracted by his thoughts will scatter like stars throughout Temeria.
The "toxin" in the giant body of Temeria is subtle and indistinguishable, but it is actually harmful.
It is precisely because of this strange but logical political ecology that Count Stesa can have the energy he has today.
In this magical Middle Ages, the relationship between those in power and their subordinates is still trustworthy.
In this world, there are companies and shareholding systems, but at the same time, there are also blood inheritance and loyalty pledges.
Count Stesa used these social contracts to bind his own interests with those of his subordinates, creating mutual trust.
The most important thing is the real money invested in his subordinates.
Stetha is very aware of the importance of offspring to mankind.
On major festivals every year, he would gather his men and their families together.
During this period, he will reward every child who studies seriously with almost luxurious rewards. Give them encouragement, give them tangible rewards, and promise them a future where they can make a big difference as long as they succeed in their studies.
It’s good to study law. I can hire someone in the Legal Department.
It’s also good to study business. The Ministry of Commerce is currently short of an intern.
It would be better if you are good at martial arts. The income of several villages has been allocated to you. All you want is for you to become a knight who can wear armor and cut through battle formations
He is also strict. He harshly criticized every subordinate who let himself go.
He will tell them that he has prepared an extremely bright position and relationship for him in the future, but if you don’t get it because you are not good enough, then you deserve it
At this time, subordinates will watch with great pride and concern as their children receive his attention.
Every reward he gives will cause applause, and every criticism he gives will cause sighs.
Under the pitiful and pitiful looks of their parents and uncles and uncles around them, those uneducated children will probably blush and get motivated.
AgainIn the future, these noble and business owner families will be closer to Stysa
His bloodline, the rights he currently holds, and the help he has received from the Nilfgaard Empire are all these qualities. Under his operation, the already ridiculously strong capital will only become bigger and more unfathomable in the future
It is precisely because of this that Count Stesa can move from Willen so quickly. So much information was extracted from that barren mud pit.
This is not all, more information is still on the way.
But just what he had already obtained was enough to surprise him.
What Stassa studied under the candlelight was Lan En’s brief experience since his appearance.
His first appearance was when he was taken naked from a farmhouse by a witcher.
Tender skin, tender meat, no setbacks, no weakness.
Stesa could read between the lines and imagine the image of a troubled young man who originally had a pretty good life.
Immediately afterwards, he became a witcher, participated in the hunt for the witcher mentor, worked in Auriden, and encountered a cannibal case
One incident after another, he was... Briefly mark the timeline and present it on the paper.
At a cursory glance, it doesn’t seem like a big deal.
It’s just that there are rumors that demon hunters are trained from secret castles in the mountains, and then enter the civilized world to find work.
But this seems to be a temporary job, teaching on the road.
That's all the compelling drama.
But after these scattered events were put together on the timeline, things began to become abnormal.
How long did it take for this demon hunter named Lan En to go from a layman who couldn't even swing a sword to a demon hunter who could single-handedly defeat an armed thug camp?
Has it been two months?
“It’s so fast that it’s abnormal”
There was surprise in Staisa’s murmured tone, but there was more It is a desire.
He wanted to know how this rapid progress, as fast as riding a gryphon, was achieved
Can it be replicated and applied on a large scale
< p>"It's the witcher's magic potion"Since Stassa decided to investigate Lan En, he naturally would not let go of the witcher's basic information.
In this pile of information, there is a lot of information about the group of demon hunters.
The demon hunter’s alchemy technology is something that even the mages are curious about. In Count Stesa’s opinion, it is naturally unique.
"But that's not right. Alchemy can be advanced to this point in less than two months."
He also has information about Bordon. This is someone who is not very proficient in alchemy. A barbarian with skills.
Stetha chuckled with interest.
If it was the magic potion, then Lan En was an abnormally talented person in the field of alchemy.
If it weren’t for the magic potion, then blueWell, he is a completely abnormal person
The count took out a piece of information, and it was Oridon's information.
Coincidentally, the nobleman who held the chariot racing competition in Oriden was Count Stetha himself.
That village can be regarded as his private land.
Information says that the relationship between the demon hunter and the villagers in this village is not bad, and there is a lot of room for making a fuss about it.
I just lost a good dog, so why not use it as a rein to tame a more ferocious one?
The count’s fingers passed over the individual messages of each villager. .
But just when his fingers were about to slide onto the head of the village elder, a young voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Ha, aren't these my friends?"
Count Stesa's eyes widened uncontrollably in the sudden shock, and his pupils shrank.
The next moment "bang"
The noble and handsome face was pressed directly on the desk by the pressure from the back of the head
The facial features were being pressed Squeezing, being squeezed by a pair of big bloody hands.
A silver necklace with the head of a roaring bear slowly dropped into the Earl's restricted field of vision.
"Should I be deeply honored to be able to see the traces of friends from the countryside of Willen in such a noble place, Lord Earl?"
The brothers are really fierce and a bit beyond imagination. Wow, the first order was just over 3,000, which was three times more than the 1,000 I expected. But sadly, this means that I will have to write 6,000 words a day for ten consecutive days.
