Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 365 The big exam is coming! (Two in one! Please subscribe!)

Hearing this, although Bridger's face did not change, deep down he was cheering for joy.

The Principality of Idar has indeed reached reconciliation with the Odin Empire.

but,

The Idar people never want the O'Sullivan tribe's orders to be able to flow unimpeded on the land of the Odin Empire, nor do they want the O'Sullivan tribe, as the Odin royal family, to completely control everything in the entire Odin Empire.

Because only in this way, Alio O'Sullivan will not set his sights outside the borders of the Odin Empire.

There are powerful tribes inside who covet the position of the monarch, and there is the Norman Empire's border with troops outside. A tense and even divided Odin Empire is what Bruno, or the Idar people, most want to see.

"Of course, Lord Soma..."

Bridger said matter-of-factly: "The Idar people are friends of all Odin people. Of course we are willing to provide weapons to our friends! Because only by possessing weapons can we better defend our own interests!"

As the deputy director of the Idar CIA who is responsible for Odin affairs, Bridger naturally has a good understanding of the domestic situation of the Odin Empire and the strength of each tribe.

So he knew clearly that the Namigara tribe, located in the southeast of the Odin Empire, was one of the most powerful tribes in the Odin Empire!

And with the restraint of the Namigala tribe...

Presumably, the young Lord Odin's pace of external expansion will not be as smooth as before...

"Oh! Praise the Idars!"

Soma Namigala looked excited and held Bridger's hands tightly.

only……

Muller O'Sullivan on the side felt as if he had eaten a dead fly.

The Idar people definitely have bad intentions!

If only the O'Sullivan tribe had powerful weapons, then Alio O'Sullivan's rule over the Odin Empire would be stronger.

But once these weapons from the Principality of Idar gradually flowed into the hands of the large tribes in the Odin Empire, everything returned to the starting point again.

But he cannot stop the Idar people from selling weapons to anyone and what kind of weapons they sell!

"Everyone, the Principality of Idar is an open and tolerant country. We love peace and tranquility, so we are also willing to sell sharp weapons to those peace-loving tribes!" Bridger said righteously.

Hearing this, the envoys belonging to other tribes in Odin's mission couldn't help but be slightly moved, with different thoughts.

…

After all, the previous arms deal between the Idar Principality and the Odin Empire was only a major event in the eyes of a few people.

As time slowly enters August, the upcoming first public service examination of the Idar Principality is the focus of all Idar people.

In the hearts of the vast majority of Idar people, whether they are determined to take the exam or just bystanders who are joining in the fun, they are particularly concerned about the upcoming exam.

In the eyes of ordinary people, once they can pass the exam, they can become a public servant in the Principality of Idar, and from then on they will have a higher social status and better salary and benefits.

And most importantly, this is on behalf of Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar!

The changes that have occurred in the Principality of Idar have greatly weakened the influence of the noble class except the Stuart family. They have no fiefdoms and real power, and only retain their titles and titles as nobles. title.

And these nobles, under the guidance of Bruno, gradually invested their funds in the business field.

Count Dale took a stake in the "Uncle Dale" fried chicken restaurant, and Count Bailey became one of the shareholders of the Idar Textile Factory.

At the same time, in the hearts of the people of Idar, the prestige of the Stuart family, as the rulers of the Principality of Idar, has long been at its peak.

Being able to work for the Stuart family and serve Duke Idar is a supreme honor for civilians!

Therefore, the people living in this land are all extremely nervous about the upcoming exam.

But it is not just the ordinary people of the Principality of Idar who are nervous. As the exam gradually approaches, even Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, gradually becomes a little anxious.

A year's time.

The educational reforms promoted by Bruno have been implemented for more than a year, and now it is finally time to test the results.

During this period, the night classes and literacy classes at Double Point College were overcrowded again and again, and the Idar Daily also used numerous reports to teach people how to spell and guide the thinking of civilians.

This is not just Bruno's imitation based on what he has seen and heard, but because the knowledge and cultural level of the people are really closely related to the rule of the Stuart family.

Today's era can basically be regarded as an era dominated by small-scale peasant economy, even the Principality of Idar, which is in the process of change, is the same.

It is precisely because of the inherent self-sufficiency and closed nature of the small-scale peasant economy that one after another aristocratic territories and aristocratic manors that are not closely connected to each other have been formed in the vast lands of the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel.

In the social environment of a small-scale peasant economy, people in different estates are basically in a state of no contact with each other.

Anyway, everyone eats from the fields, the living conditions are not much different, and the food grown can be self-sufficient, so naturally there is no need to communicate with each other.

But this is obviously not what Bruno wants to see.

Bruno did not want the people in various parts of the Idar Principality to remain in a closed state where they did not know each other.

Because if things go on like this, independent vassals that do not belong to each other will appear again sooner or later in this prosperous land.

so,

Bruno built the Idar Avenue that runs through the Principality of Idar, and always kept the slogan "If you want to be rich, build the road first".

Convenient water and land transportation has strengthened the connections between various regions of the Principality of Idar, allowing Bruno's decrees to travel unimpeded in this land located in the eastern part of the empire.

However, it is obviously not enough if we only have convenient transportation.

If he wanted to keep the Principality of Idar under the rule of the Stuart family for a long time, Bruno would need a new class to connect the rulers of the Stuart family with the common people.

It is obviously impossible for traditional Norman nobles to do this.

Therefore, the existence of the civil servant system and the upcoming large-scale examination are changes made by Bruno to consolidate the rule of the Stuart family.

The Idar civil servants selected through the examination will become a professional administrative team that manages local affairs on behalf of the Stuart family.

The existence of the official transfer system and the selection and transfer system can also effectively prevent the birth of the local "powerful" class with deep roots.

The reason why Bruno extended the tentacles of the Stuart family to Earl Dale's "Uncle Dale" fried chicken restaurant and other nobles' business territories was not because he was interested in the meager profits.

It's because Bruno doesn't want to see the small circle of interest groups with local nobles as the core continuing to exist in another form on the land of the Principality of Idar.

As a time traveler, Bruno has witnessed the historical development of thousands of years in countless books. Therefore, the upcoming exam plays a particularly important role in Bruno's heart.

This is selecting talents for the Principality of Idar, and there is no room for sloppiness!

"The Idar Printing Workshop has been officially taken over by agents of the Idar CIA. Before the end of the Civil Service Examination, the printing workshop will prohibit the entry and exit of any personnel."

In the study room of the Hanging Garden, Mundell was reporting the news about the Principality of Idar to Bruno in detail.

"How are the arrangements for the examination room going?" Bruno asked.

According to statistics from relevant agencies, after the news of the exam was released, as many as 10,000 Idar people signed up to take the exam.

Although this number is obviously nothing compared to the previous life, in this era, it is already shocking enough.

You know, the total population of the entire Principality of Idar has not even reached one million people!

And this means that among every one hundred people, at least one, or even two or three people have signed up for the exam.

"The location of the examination room is arranged at the Idar Public University. Although the current university has not yet been fully completed and the conditions inside are a bit crude, many of the buildings can already be used normally." Mundell He replied quickly.

As the personal attendant of Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, Mundell clearly knows how much his lord the Duke attaches importance to the upcoming examination.

Not only did he personally write several test questions for registered candidates, but he also personally wrote down the rules, regulations and procedures for the Civil Service Examination, and formulated the exam specifications.

"That's good……"

Hearing this, Bruno couldn't help but nodded.

…

August 7, sunny, suitable for exams.

When the much-anticipated first major examination of the Principality of Idar finally arrived, the candidates who applied for it had already gathered early on the south bank of the Idar River.

Most people looked quite nervous.

The exam will start on August 7th and end on August 10th, a total of four days.

The first two days were the first public service examination of the Idar Principality, and the next two days were the first admissions examination of the Idar Public University.

Although Idar Public University has not yet been built, the cultivation of talents cannot be delayed because of this.

The Principality of Idar was still very hot in August, but as if to keep the registered candidates in better condition, the weather on this day was much milder.

The warm sunshine fell on the land of the Principality of Idar, and a little cool breeze blew over the faces of every candidate.

Ethan held a large handful of newspapers in his arms and was taking advantage of the last moment to carefully read every word printed on it.

For him, the upcoming exam will be a valuable opportunity to determine whether he can reverse his destiny.

As a native of Idar, Ethan originally thought that he would spend his whole life squatting in the fields, dealing with food and crops.

However, the emergence of "Idar Daily" gave Ethan new hope in his life.

During the busy farming season, Ethan couldn't spare the time to go to Two Point College to audit, but this did not prevent him from comparing the newspapers to understand the meaning of each word.

Therefore, at this moment, Ethan, who was almost entirely self-taught, was actually extremely nervous.

Due to too many candidates, space is limited.

Each classroom was crammed with more than sixty candidates, and the restaurants, lecture halls, and testing grounds of Idar Public University were all packed.

However, Bruno is not worried about plagiarism.

One is because Bruno has given extremely harsh punishment measures for possible cheating. Once cheating, the rest of life will be marked.

The second reason is that the invigilators responsible for invigilating the exam this time are all carefully selected by Bruno.

The team of invigilators includes not only agents from the Idar CIA, police officers from the Idar Public Security Bureau, and even a mage apprentice temporarily transferred by Bruno!

Bruno can responsibly say that any possible cheating behavior will not escape the eyes of the invigilators!

…

After passing numerous tests, Ethan finally entered the examination room and sat in his seat waiting for the papers to be issued.

Although the weather was not too hot, his back was soaked with sweat due to excessive nervousness, and the pencil in his hand was shaking slightly from time to time.

So much so that when he was writing his name, his hands were shaking a little, and his handwriting was crooked.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, Ethan quickly used his left hand to tightly clenched his trembling right arm.

Take a deep breath...

Ethan had already made countless self-suggestions in his mind and encouraged himself again and again, but when he actually walked into the examination room, he still felt extremely nervous.

finally,

When the test paper was handed to Ethan, and he roughly scanned the questions on the test paper, his originally worried heart gradually calmed down.

The test paper is not difficult, at least Ethan can do most of the questions.

Although Ethan's right hand was still trembling a little when he first answered the questions, as his attention gradually focused, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Ethan gradually entered the state.

The questions on the test paper were asked by Bruno himself.

Considering that a year ago, the per capita education level of the Idar people was still at the prenatal education stage, therefore, Bruno's questions were relatively simple.

Most of the questions in the first half of the test paper are about the most basic spelling and reading comprehension. As long as you study spelling and reading aloud seriously, you can basically get a score.

The questions in the second half are relatively scattered. Many of them are open-ended questions such as "Brief description of the natural conditions and future development plans of the Dale Hills" and "Understanding and countermeasures for the Kingdom of Basel". They are mainly for Examine candidates’ thinking patterns.

Although this invisibly increases the difficulty of grading, after all, this is the selection of grassroots administrative staff of the Principality of Idar, and it must always be based on practical problems.

At least……

Bruno was very satisfied with the questions he asked.
