Some might find it strange why these city lords were so concerned about opening schools.

The reason was simple.

They all wanted talented individuals with education.

The affairs a city lord had to manage were neither few nor many, but within a city.

Apart from a few special positions, most of the posts, big and small, had to be arranged by the city lord.

But now the problem arises from many positions.

The basic requirement is to be literate.

At least the people in charge must be able to read.

Otherwise, if you can't read a single character, how can you manage things? Can you write reports? Can you understand the work arrangements that come down? This has really put the city lords in a tough spot.

They can't just assign anyone to the positions.

If the person they assign messes things up, who will take the blame? In the end, won't they have to deal with it themselves? Thus, this joint petition came about.

Of course, these guys are all clever.

They don't expect a school that hasn't even been built yet to provide them with talent.

So, applying to establish schools in their respective cities is just a secondary purpose.

The main goal is to inform Laji that there is no one capable under their command.

As for why they want to tell Laji, the reason is that after a few months of study, the adult class of the Ming Jing City School will soon graduate and these students can proactively apply for work arrangements which are generally decided by law.

To put it bluntly, your majesty, there is no one left to use.

Life is becoming unbearable.

Please have pity on your humble servant and send a few of the graduating students from the Ming Jing School my way.

Seeing through this little intention, Luaji couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation.

However, this did remind him that in large cities like Shiuan City, Jumishu City, Ba City, Shang Yuan City, Dou City, and TB city, which have already reached a certain scale, it is indeed feasible to establish schools first.

At the same time, as schools become more widespread, the classification of grades and courses must also be gradually prepared.

The group of adult students graduating is only a temporary education.

It's not feasible to let them study for several years.

By then, the opportunity will have passed.

Luagi plans to implement systems like 3year, 6-year, and 9-year education for the next generation of children, but does not intend to apply them to this group of adults.

Of course, once Loaji has sorted out the various grades and courses, these adult students can also proactively apply for further studies.

And whether they will learn will be entirely up to them.

For now, it's best to send them to work first.

Civilization needs them.

In summary, the establishment of schools in various cities should be prioritized.

Just as Laji was flipping through his development plan, a piece of paper suddenly fell out.

Looking at this paper, Laji was stunned for two seconds, then smacked his forehead, cursing, "Damn, I forgot about this.

" Previously, Loji had planned to have the two capture crossbows dealt with by Ying Shien.

But since the battle hadn't fully concluded, they couldn't communicate.

So, he noted it down on paper, intending to handle it once the battle was officially over.

As time passed, he couldn't even find the paper and ended up forgetting about it.

Now seeing this paper that had somehow slipped into his hands, he finally remembered and was just about to send a message to Ye when he unexpectedly received a message from a first.

Are you there? The new batch of jade items and accessories is ready.

Yes, I was just about to message you.

We got two more crossbows in the last battle.

And we also acquired another batch of farming horses, so I'll trade them to you soon.

No unnecessary chatter.

After quickly completing a round of trading, Yiqing Xen sent a message that startled Luaji.

I'm about to enter the bronze age so soon.

Seeing this message, Luaji was genuinely shocked.

Calculating the time, he had only just advanced to the bronze level a few months ago.

Yet, Ying Shien was about to level up so quickly as well.

The speed of development is indeed astonishing.

However, upon reflection, Yiing Shien is a special civilization, a commercial empire.

In the early stages without any ranks, she must have already made a fortune just through business.

Given the abundance of resources, it seems her development speed is likely unstoppable.

Not to mention, once the basic requirements for entering the bronze age are met, the system will issue a final notice.

And when the deadline arrives, it will forcibly promote you to the bronze level, not giving you any chance to linger in the unranked tier.

Are you mentally prepared? You might also face attacks from the dominating the world alliance.

There seem to be many bronze players in that alliance.

Isn't that just helping you share some of the firepower? At the end of the message, Yiqing Shien added a playful emoji.

And also, don't underestimate me.

I'm no longer the same as before.

Right now, I'm ranked number one among the unranked players.

He I have to say Yiching Schwan's current ranking genuinely surprised Laji.

Although the difference in rankings among the top players is not particularly significant, it cannot be denied that reaching the number one spot is indeed a way to prove one's strength.

However, the cold water still needs to be poured.

Don't get complacent.

The difficulty of bronze level players far exceeds that of unranked players.

You should have earned quite a few civilization points by now, right? Use the civilization points to adjust the time difference.

Adjust as much as you can while you can.

Then focus on building stone walls and expanding your military.

As conditions allow, try to expand your military as much as possible.

I'll send you a few three bow crossbows later and tell you about the bronze level situation.

Be careful then.

You should be able to handle it.

Feeling the earnestness in Luaji's words, Ying Shien, far away in another world, couldn't help but smile helplessly, knowing that Loaji was just being overly concerned.

Then after sending one message, she quickly sent another.

How about I adjust the time difference to one? 100 100.

Luaji replied with a string of exclamation marks.

Are you already rich enough to this extent? Bossi.

Of course, he ended her message with a mischievous grin, then shifted her tone.

Just kidding.

In summary, let us first adjust it to 150.

Seeing this message, Luaji's eyelids twitched again.

After sending a string of ellipses, he added, "So, you're joking again?" "No, I'm serious.

" End of this chapter.

Chapter 332.

Signal fire.

After a serious reminder, Lodge ended the conversation and glanced at his meager savings, his face filled with melancholy.

Unexpectedly, just as he was feeling down, another good piece of news hit him on the head.

Report to the leader.

The materials for the signal fire have been prepared.

Upon hearing this news, Luajia felt a surge of joy in his heart and decisively led a team of guards riding towards the city walls of Mingjing city.

At this moment, a beacon tower had already been built on the walls of Ming Jing City, and it was evident that the speciallymade fuel had already been filled.

Light it.

With Logia's command, the fuel on the beacon tower ignited instantly, and the thick black smoke rose straight into the sky, not dissipated by the wind.

Seeing this scene, Loia couldn't help but shake his fist vigorously.

Without a doubt, after so many tests and failures, he finally got the recipe for the signal fire right there.

Their sa saying on modern networks that signal fires are made from wolf dong.

Regarding this claim, Lajier expressed after personal experimentation that it was complete nonsense.

Even if we take a step back, where would all that wolf dong come from a burn? You would need at least five or six lb for one signal fire, right? For one city, that s5 or six lb.

For 10 cities that s 50 or 60 lb.

Not to mention, there are more cities.
