Because he often goes to the Chengbei horse farm to exercise martial arts and body, Marin finds that his time is not enough. In the past, the affairs of the country were left to Prime Minister Jeffrey to handle, write down the opinions, and then hand it to himself for review. However, this is too much trouble. Every day, Marin needs to work for a long time, giving various instructions.

Although East Friesland is a small country, the affairs are not particularly large, but it is also inseparable from people every day. Every time Marin went out to work, he had to deal with piles of documents.

Also, East Frisian is able to get the civil servants, that is, Jeffrey and Heidel. Both were undergraduates of the Middle Ages and very capable. It was for this reason that Marin was not willing to dispose of the "former North Korean official" Jeffrey, but reserved it.

As for another undergraduate, Haider, Marin needs him to manage legal affairs and serve as the judge of the country. Handling various cases in the country, no less than Jeffrey. Therefore, Marin could not transfer Haider from the court to share government affairs.

Before he died, Marin did not think about recruiting talents in the past. However, because Marin had not been recognized by the nations before, and the threat of the powerful Saxon Principality, no one was willing to turn to Marin, the uncertain count of the future.

When Marin defeated the army of the Principality of Saxony, someone finally recognized Marin ...

底 At the end of June, the first group of homeless knights who came to take the initiative finally arrived ...

Marin received them with great joy, and then arranged them into the army, first undergoing three months of adaptation training, and then intended to let them take over some of the company captains that the officers had concurrently served.

Moreover, Philip, the head of the Teutonic Order, also sent a group of young wandering knights who had just arrived in the Teutonic state to solve the problem of insufficient officers for Marin.

In this way, the total number of homeless knights in Marin's hands exceeded 60, which is enough. After all, there are now 250 companies in a company, and 10,000 people only have 40 companies. In other words, 40 company captains, 40 people are enough.

However, for more than 30 newcomers, Marin intends to select 18 outstanding performers based on the performance of the three-month training period to add to those companies. The rest were temporarily added to the militia as company captains.

After all, Marin has to consider the issue of war damage. By coincidence, Marin had a great victory in this war, and no senior officers were killed. If the next time is unlucky, when an intermediate or senior officer is killed, it is very difficult to find a replacement. Therefore, it is necessary to treat those stray knights who have not been selected as spare tires. Once the casualty of the company commander of the regular army occurs next time, he can directly select the outstanding substitute from the commander of the militia company to avoid the vacancy of commander.

In fact, one company, preferably two company captains. But Marin is not so extravagant now, so he had to get one first. There are also 20 substitutes now, which can be added at any time, but I don't worry about the shortage of staff.

However, what Marin lacks most now is a competent civilian. Who has the highest level in the Middle Ages? Naturally, college students are rare in this era.

Europe as a whole, universities of this era, Europe as a whole, but only 80 (including some purely theological schools). Moreover, the number of students in universities of this era is very small, and a university only has hundreds or thousands of students. Unlike future generations, a university can reach tens of thousands every day ...

Not only that, at least half of the people in the university are missionaries of church origin. Copernicus, for example, is a member of the Polish Catholic Church.

The other half of the students, mostly from aristocratic families, a few are children of wealthy merchants or children of landowners. In short, none of them belong to ordinary people.

Moreover, the entire German region is also known as the University of Prague (the Kingdom of Bohemia), the University of Vienna (the Principality of Austria), the University of Heidelberg (the electorate of Palatinate), the University of Cologne (the electorate of Cologne), the University of Leipzig ( Electorate of Saxony), University of Rostock (co-founded by the Duke of Mecklenburg and the Hanseatic city of Rostock), University of Munich (Principality of Bavaria), University of Tübingen (Principality of Wurttemberg), University of Freiburg (by Hab Founded by members of the Borg family, originally belonging to the Austrian sphere of influence, located in the Swabian League) ... and so on, composed of a dozen universities.

These schools add up to no more than 10,000 people. Among them, nearly half of college students are missionaries serving the church. The other half of the students, many of them are nobles who have the right to inheritance, will definitely go back to inherit the title and fiefdom after graduation.

Only those aristocratic students who do not have the right to inheritance, as well as civilian students from businessmen and landowners, are the people who are uncertain about the future.

However, there were too few college students in the Middle Ages, as few as pandas. Even though they are civilians, as long as they are college students, there are always nobles who are willing to win over.

Therefore, these medieval college students have no worries and no way out, only the aristocracy sends people to win. Therefore, it is unlikely that college graduates will come to Marin. It was like Heidel was pulled by Marin, purely because Heidel was idle, and ran to Texel Island to travel, just caught Marin.

Today, Heidel is also a hereditary jazz, and it is considered that he has completed the transformation from a civilian to a noble. And, crucially, his title can be hereditary ...

一般 In general, though, those college students of civilian origin can be regarded as nobles by the big nobles who admire them, but they are at best just a hereditary jazz. Because no matter which aristocracy, it is not easy to enclose a civilian-born college student with a baron such as a baron.

Marin is also opportunistic, specifically listing such titles as hereditary jazz, but it is also convenient to reward civilian officials. In fact, hereditary jazz is not as affordable as the baron. Because jazz is generally not fiefdom. Even owning land is not tax-free. At most, the hereditary jazz, as an aristocratic class, has some honorary privileges. Therefore, even if several more hereditary jazz are awarded, Marin is not distressed. Because jazz belongs to the civilian category, it is difficult to obtain a fiefdom. Generally speaking, only military achievements can be exchanged for fiefdoms. Of course, if the civil servant is sealed from a baron such as a baron, he can also have a land, such as Kohler. However, the baron of civil servants in the court department has no land, and it is purely based on Marin's mood. There is no guarantee. Unlike the baron in exchange for battle, there must be a fiefdom.

In fact, there are special reasons why Marin did not have a college graduate to vote. Because, as a red stick fighter for Emperor Maximilian I, Marin is naturally not the same as most princes.

除了 Apart from the two universities in Austria, the vassals of other universities are definitely not good at Marin. Even some princes who were hostile to Marin sent people to spread Marin's bad comments and deliberately smeared Marin.

For example, at the University of Leipzig in the Saxony region, there is a legend that Marin is a killer, and Marin also likes to cut children and cook them .... Now, in the Saxony, Marin name Almost synonymous with demon, it can reach the scary level that makes children stop crying ...

In the Middle Ages where information was not developed, such rumors were very powerful. Marin didn't know what it was like to be discredited by those vassals. For example, Marin is now like the three fat brothers who were blacked out by the Americans before his rebirth ... And, even worse, the three fat brothers do have a lot of black spots on them, and they are black. And Marin is a promising young man who is much better than his contemporaries. He has also been hacked ...

In order to make myself easier, Marin asked Kohler to send a group of people to the nearby University of Cologne to recruit graduates for the first time, but they were all rejected ...

Then, Kohler's men heard a lot of bad comments in Cologne that were not good for Marin. What's more, Marin's remarks circulating at the University of Cologne are light. After all, the Archbishop of Cologne was less hostile to Marin. Unlike the Duke of Saxony, who was hostile to Marin, he turned Marin into a super-perverted murderer at the University of Leipzig ...

Scrutinizing his undergraduates who couldn't attract college students ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Marin had to find East Frisian Chief Justice Heidel Lehman to ask him to dig someone at the University of Cologne in the name of alumni ...

刺激 In order to stimulate Haider, Marin promised that every time Haider dug a graduate of the University of Cologne, he would receive an "introduction fee" of 500 gold coins. Moreover, if more than 20 people are brought in, Marin will seize the second son of Haider who has no right of inheritance as a non-hereditary ordinary jazz and ranks among the noblemen ... Of course, Marin also promised that he would never let others replace Haider The location of the justices. Unless, Heyder rose up ...

With this stimulus, Haider took a group of men, hesitated to hear the case, went directly to the University of Cologne, and began lobbying and flickering to the students ...

In order to help Haider to support the scene, Marin gave a lot of gold coins to Haider as an activity fund, so that he didn't have to save money, and ate a lot of schoolmates to eat and drink. In order to improve the quality of the banquet, Marin even sent two court chefs to help Haider make delicious dishes to ensure that Haider's schoolmates will eat delicious food ...

Not only that, Marin also arranged 10 knight officers with good martial arts, wearing polished half-plate armor, posing as guards, and followed behind Heder all day, with a strong voice, increasing the force ...

In addition, Marin also allowed Heidel to offer an exciting salary to impress college students of ordinary origin and encourage them to work in East Friesland.

Marin is not bad money, if you can recruit college students from the Middle Ages, let alone money can be measured. Those college students from civilian families and small noble families are easily moved by high treatment. Moreover, the civilian system in East Friesland is severely understaffed. In addition to being able to impress those college students with high salaries, those civilian positions that are really vacant there are also very tempting ...
