Chapter 601 Boiling Frogs in Warm Water

In front of more than a dozen nobles, he acted as an example of killing chickens and monkeys. Even if someone really had objections, he dared not speak out on this occasion.

Viscount Sangunar and Lailas, representing the Windrunner family, stood on the side of the plan without hesitation.

Before leaving, Welles temporarily handed over the voting rights of the Deep Shadow Family (the first line) to Sharlayan, allowing him to vote for him.

There are a total of 6 honorable families who are closer to the Deep Shadow family. These people began to prepare for this day after the last meeting, and they all raised their hands without hesitation to express their support.

Everyone has a herd mentality. Seeing people around them raise their hands in favor one after another, in order to avoid being excluded from the maverick, other nobles present also scrambled to raise their hands to express their approval. Only a few two wanted to withdraw.

Salayan kept his promise, did not embarrass the two families, and politely sent them away.

Including several honorable persons who were removed from the ranks, a total of 18 families joined the plan.

In the current environment where the old nobles are declining day by day, it is hard to say in terms of power, but at least in terms of economy, these 18 families are likely to become the wealthiest nobles in Quel'Thalas in the future.

"Very well, thank you all elders for your support."

A sincere smile finally appeared on Sharlayan's face: "Believe me, in five years' time at the latest, you will definitely be proud of the choices you made today."

"Royal planner Sharlayan Deepshadow, on behalf of His Majesty the Sun King Kael'thas Sunstrider, hereby announce that the harbor development plan will officially start today!"

...

It is not an easy task to develop a port from scratch. First of all, the underwater sludge in the offshore area must be cleaned up to ensure that ships transporting various building materials can safely enter and exit the dock.

Sharlayan is good at planning the overall situation, and the details are not his strong point.

After the reform of the official system, Quel'Thalas' various positions have been more clearly assigned.

The construction of the port will be entrusted to the Department of Engineering and Construction under the Ministry of the Interior.

The construction of ships will be divided into two parts. Military warships are under the responsibility of the Ministry of the Navy, and all types of civilian ships will be uniformly issued by the Ministry of Communications.

After a long period of experience in government affairs, Kael'thas has also developed the habit of acting vigorously and resolutely.

He had previously greeted Darkan out of courtesy, and would replace his two puppet councilors who only knew how to drink tea and read newspapers, and delegate the positions of Minister of Education and Minister of Health to others.

The situation is stronger than people, and Darkan, who is good at adapting to the wind, agreed with Kael'thas' "suggestion" with a smile.

As for what's on his mind...at least in the current political environment it doesn't matter.

The Minister of Education is in charge of all matters related to education. Kael'thas has long been determined to reform Quel'Thalas' education system. This position is not easy to get, and it is destined to be a hard job.

After the internal recommendation of the Silver Moon councilors, Kael'thas finally chose a great magister named Belovar Sarona.

The Sarona family has a long history and is one of the ancient nobles who founded the country with Dath'Remar. Members of this family were also frequent visitors of the Silvermoon Council.

Compared with those old aristocrats who liked to fight for power and profit, generations of the Sarona family have devoted their energy to the in-depth study of arcane arts.

Starting from the first Marquis of Sarona, the patriarch of each generation of Sarona family can obtain the title of Great Magister.

Even in Quel'Thalas, the magical kingdom recognized by Azeroth, this title is extremely rare, and usually only one person will be awarded in the same era.

It is precisely for this reason that the Salona family's status has always been very high.

Even though they knew that they would not join their own ranks of running on the king's power, each generation of the Silvermoon Council would still leave a seat for the contemporary Grand Magister as a sign of respect.

Anasterian's later period broke with many traditions.

Due to the long period of turmoil in the Silvermoon Council, the contemporary Grand Magister Belovar Sarona has not been recruited into the Council.

Belovar didn't care about this, because the descendants of the Sarona family had no interest in power because of the family's inheritance since ancient times.

Anasteria did not reuse Belovar just to firmly stand against the old nobles, not to have any opinion on the Sarona family.

In order to appease Belovar, the old king appointed him as the dean of Faselin Academy of Magic for the first time.

As the only high-level magic academy in Quel'Thalas, the dean of Fatherin had always been a member of the Sunstrider family, with the purpose of attracting arcanists who graduated from this academy.

In the words of the barrage, this approach can narrow the relationship between the Sunstrider royal family and the graduates of the academy, and all graduates will automatically obtain the status of "Student of the Son of Heaven".

With such a highly respected grand magister as the Minister of Education, no one in Quel'Thalas raised any objections, and Belovar himself was very interested in the education reform proposed by Kael'thas.

By the way, after Belovar became Minister of Education, Kael'thas logically transferred the post of Dean Faserin back to the Sunstrider royal family.

Kael'thas's distant cousin, Lianda Sunstrider, succeeds the Headmaster.

In addition to the Minister of Education, the Minister of Health, the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Transport have also filled in one after another.

The Minister of Justice and the Minister of Transportation are also promoted by the Silver Moon Council, and they choose experienced officials to be promoted.

But in the choice of medical minister, Kael'thas did not take the usual path.

He adopted Von der Lore's suggestion and made an exception to promote a highly respected old priest from the group of priests in Quel'Thalas.

The priestess named Elena Fontaine is von der Lohr's first mentor, and she is more than 2,800 years old this year.

Strictly speaking, the profession of pastor flowed into Quel'Thalas because of this old priest.

Due to limited talent, Elena Fontaine's control over the Holy Light is not strong, far inferior to her prodigy apprentice Von der Lore that day.

However, this elderly pastor has a very thorough understanding of the way of medical treatment, and he definitely deserves the benevolent evaluation of the doctor.

After Von der Lohe grew up, Ms. Alina handed over management rights without hesitation and retreated to the second line.

But she has never stopped diagnosing and treating fellow high elves, and her experience in clinical medicine is far from comparable to that of Von der Lore.

Lady Alina's appointment has polarized opinion throughout Quel'Thalas.

The nobles believed that Elena, who was born as a commoner, was not qualified to enter the Silvermoon Council, after all, there had never been a precedent before.

Among the current members of the Silver Moon Council, including Li Reza and Von der Lore, who are known as the mud-legged people, they still have titles on their bodies, and they belong to the noble class.

Elina's appointment made the nobles very angry, and a large number of nobles jumped out to firmly oppose Kael'thas' decision.

On the contrary, a large number of civilians praised Kael'thas' unprecedented recruitment of civilians.

Ms. Alina has been providing indiscriminate treatment for all the people who come to seek medical treatment for thousands of years, and she has a high reputation among the people. In the eyes of the common people, she is absolutely qualified to enter the Silver Moon Council as the Minister of Medicine.

That's a typical ass problem.

The common people believe that Ms. Elina's election to the Silver Moon Councilor represents a change in the policy direction of Quel'Thalas, which indicates that the common people have the opportunity to enter the center.

The nobles are clearly not going to sit by and let this happen.

The number of seats in the Silver Moon Council has always been regarded by the nobles as their own taboo, and lowly commoners will never be allowed to get involved.

This incident happened during the period when Sarlayan was sent to Kul Tiras as an envoy, and the incident was quite serious. At one point, it was necessary to dispatch security forces to separate the two parties who spat at each other.

The nobles thought that Kael'thas would intensify and hand over the Minister of Justice and Minister of Transportation to civilians.

But Kael'thas suddenly backed down at this time, adopted the internal recommendation of the Silver Moon councilors, and handed over these two positions to veteran noble officials.

Many nobles didn't understand what Kael'thas meant, and once thought that this matter was over, and it was only because of Ms. Elina's strong reputation that she was brought into the Silvermoon Council.

But Sharlayan knew that Kael'thas was boiling frogs in warm water to test the nobles' bottom line little by little.

In fact, it can be seen from the appointment of the Minister of Education that the members of the Sarona family have never ignored those colleagues who like to fight for power and profit.

Afterwards, Kael'thas will definitely instruct Belovar to start reforms in the field of education, give civilians a channel to rise, and force the nobles whose status is threatened to desperately improve themselves.

What? Remonstrance?

The old aristocrats had their backs broken by Anasteria long ago, and the nobles were also cleaned and beaten by Sharlayan. Who has the ability and courage to jump out and die at this time?

After sending off all the honorable representatives, Sarlayan opened the windows of the meeting hall, letting the noise outside the windows come back to his ears.

"The ancient system of Quel'Thalas, which has lasted for thousands of years, is finally about to change."
