Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 65 Starting Point Orphanage

Under Bruno's arrangement, Old Ford's power was actually weakened.

But Old Ford had no complaints about this at all. He wholeheartedly approved of Lópida taking over Idar's finances after him.

On the one hand, Lópida was also Bruno's confidant. He had previously managed the Cape Salt Farm and Fishing Port Terminal, and had never made any mistakes. The operations of the salt farm and fishing port were also in order, so it was logical to take over the management of Idar's financial rights.

On the other hand, Old Ford knew clearly that what the Idar Territory in the future needed was the growing new generation of forces like Shabi and Lobida, and only they could keep up with Bruno's pace. As for himself, it is estimated that he will be buried in peace soon.

What's more, the burden Bruno gave him was definitely not light. Whether it was the Cape Saltworks, the sugar workshop, or other workshops, these were all industries related to Idar's lifeline, plus the newly established anti-smuggling He simply couldn't spare the extra time and energy to take care of the situation.

Among the people here, most people have only redistributed and refined the scope of management.

However, Sam Layton may be the only one of these men whose authority has been diminished.

After all, in Bruno's view, power comes from the barrel of a gun.

Although Sam Layton deserves his trust, no matter what, the soldiers of Idar Territory cannot be held in the hands of one person.

…

Sam Layton, wearing a shiny armor and leading two well-dressed standing army quartermasters, stopped by a dilapidated alley in Idar City.

Today, he came to deliver pensions to the families of soldiers killed in the Battle of Glen Heights.

The Battle of the Grand Highlands allowed the Idar Territory to successfully occupy the Grand Highlands located in the north of Idar, and pushed Idar's northern border to the south bank of the Sauron River.

But at the same time, the Idar Territory also suffered the casualties of three soldiers.

Only three people died in a war. This was not actually because of how powerful the army led by Idar was, but more because the army led by Sauron was too weak and the other party's general, Herman Barker, The advantage was too great and the enemy was underestimated, which resulted in such a strange war result.

For the fallen soldiers, Bruno would not only give their families the previously promised pensions, but also required that the money must be personally delivered to the families of the fallen soldiers by Sam Layton, the commander of the standing army.

Today was the first time Sam Layton had done such a thing, so he hesitated at the entrance of the alley.

As the instructor and commander of the Standing Army, the three hundred soldiers of the Standing Army have been eating, living and training with Sam Layton on weekdays.

Although Sam Layton may not remember every soldier's name, at least everyone is familiar with them, and they know that they are also members of the standing army.

But... when he thought that the three soldiers would disappear forever in the camp of the standing army, Sam Layton felt a little empty for a while.

This was a feeling he had never experienced before in his many years of leading the army!

"Eh..." Sam waved his hand and stopped a civilian who was walking out of the alley.

When the man saw Sam calling him, he felt a little frightened and asked cautiously: "Sir...are you...calling me?"

"Is XX·XXX's home here?" Sam said.

"Oh! He! He lives at the end of the alley, but I heard people say before... He seems to be dead... Now only his child still lives somewhere..." The man's voice gradually faded. Get smaller.

"So how is this child doing these days?" Sam Layton asked quickly.

"Everyone who has cooked meals will take turns to help. Although life is difficult, at least the children will not starve to death..."

Sam frowned and finally dragged his heavy steps into the alley.

At the end of the alley is a house that has just been renovated. Although it still looks shabby, it is not dirty at all.

This house must have been repaired with the help of his Earl, Sam couldn't help but sigh. (Note: Bruno repaired some houses in Idar City during the New Year, see Chapter 36 for details)

"Squeak..." Sam gently pushed open the half-open wooden door.

"Who is it! Is dad back?" A childish voice suddenly came from the house.

Before he finished speaking, a little boy hurriedly ran out of the room, and then... he froze on the spot, looking at the uninvited guests in front of him.

"I am a friend of your father XX·XXX, you can call me Sam." Sam Layton approached the little boy, knelt down and explained.

"Sam..." the little boy finally asked timidly. "Do you know where my father is... Many of them said that my father is dead... I don't believe it..."

"Your father...went far away...I asked you to follow me from now on..." Sam gritted his teeth, but after all, he still couldn't say what he originally wanted to say.

"Is that so..." The boy's eyes obviously dimmed at this moment.

"Go pack your things quickly..." Sam said with a smile under the surprised gazes of the two quartermasters.

In fact, Sam didn't know why he did it, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net but he did it anyway.

When the instructor taught the soldiers, he also listened and felt that it made some sense. In addition, he got along with the soldiers day and night. Although he and the child's father were just superiors and subordinates, he really couldn't bear to let the child live on the street. , maybe... this is what the Earl calls revolutionary friendship?

…

Bruno, who was sitting at his desk, quietly listened to Sam Layton's report.

"So...you brought that child back?" Bruno said.

"Yes." Sam Layton nodded.

"Have the pensions of the other two soldiers been paid?"

"It's all been handed out."

There is no way this is the only orphan whose parents have died in Idar Territory. Instead of letting him live on the streets and eventually become a destabilizing factor in Idar Territory... why not set aside a place in Idar City to build an orphanage?

After all, children need to be nurtured from an early age!

"Liszt!" Bruno called.

"Here, sir." Liszt responded.

"Set aside an area outside Idar City and build an orphanage to adopt all the children who have lost their parents within the Idar Territory."

"Master..." Sam Layton said excitedly.

"Go back to your military camp for training. Idar's child is not the only one who has lost his parents. I don't want the commander of his standing army to wander around the military camp with a lot of bigger children in the future."

"As for the name of the orphanage... let's call it Qidian Orphanage. For those children, this may be a new starting point in their lives..."
