Chapter 215 Using Old Barrels to Put New Wine

Update released! Readers have all gone to check it out!

Li Mosi casually wrote the sentence down on a piece of paper and marked the pinyin.

"Only names and vessels cannot be faked?"

Ziyi and Zian looked at the pinyin and read it out one character at a time.

The saintess looked at the words and her lips moved a few times, but no sound came out.

Li Mosi pointed to each character with the pen and explained them one by one.

"Only. It means only."

"Name. It refers to status and reputation. For example, Ziyi, being the tribal chief is your status. You lead your people to defeat the slave hunters and nobles, and make sure they are well-fed. That is your reputation."

"与. means 'and'."

"Utensils. These refer to items that symbolize status. The wooden staff you were holding, the armor Zi'an was wearing, and the documents we just looked at are all utensils."

No. I just don't want to.

"Yes. That means yes. Put together, it means no."

"Fake. The word alone can mean something is fake, but in this context it means to lend out."

"People. When we say 'people' on its own, we're referring to others here."

Li Moss underlined this sentence.

"This means that one should never give away status, fame, or items that symbolize one's identity to others."

"If these things are given to others, the governance of the community will become uncertain. Others will not know whether to listen to you or to the person who has borrowed your name and power."

"oh!"

Zi'an understood.

"What Ziyi just did has given his reputation to those three!"

That statement... seems to be true?

Is that how it is?!

The saintess's eyes slowly widened a little.

"So that's how it is."

Zi Yi nodded and then looked at Li Mosi.

"Master, isn't this how we operate in those three knightly territories?"

Li Moss did not answer directly.

He waved his hand, glanced at his two disciples, and then at Haji Saint, who was staring wide-eyed, seemingly lost in thought.

"Ziyi, tell me your solution to the problem first."

"Yes, Master."

Zi Yi nodded and continued to speak as he thought.

"I think perhaps we can gather the people together and let them know me. Or we can have our own people replace the soldiers and have them guard the manor. Then we can give the people food and gain their trust."

Does this sound the same as what my master did in those three territories?

Zi'an blinked and turned to look at Li Mosi.

"Overall, there are no problems."

Li Mosi nodded.

"But have you noticed any areas that need adjustment? Are there any differences in implementation compared to the three manors?"

Ziyi and Zian thought about it again.

"artisan."

Li Moss heard Hagi Saint's voice and turned to look.

She seemed a little down.

The saintess gazed at Li Mosi with her golden eyes.

"If there's something that benefits many people, but it's difficult for one person to implement it, and that person gets someone of higher status to enforce it through orders, does that relate to what you just said?"

Li Mosi's lips tightened.

"I Have a Friend" - A New Chapter in Another World?

He thought for a moment and then asked.

Before you did this, did you let others know you were going to do it? Did you let those who would benefit know what advantages they would receive? Whose interests would be harmed by this initiative?

"I wasn't talking about myself!"

Ignoring Hagi Saint's rebuttal, Li Mosi continued speaking.

"When someone of higher status asked others to implement this, did they mention your name? Did you send yourself or someone who could represent you to explain this to the beneficiaries? Did you let all the beneficiaries know that you were the one doing this?"

"no."

Haki Saint shook his head, his emotions plummeting like a bungee jumper without a rope.

She initially discovered that the Lightbringer who had just been transferred to her side was not even fully equipped with armor, so she ordered someone to make armor for him. Only then did she realize that Lightbringers had to provide their own armor and weapons.

She thought to herself, how could the Papacy, which was so wealthy, not be able to afford the equipment for its own soldiers?

Not to mention that the Lightbringers are not local nobles and have no land income, so why should they be required to provide their own weapons and armor?

Therefore, her first decree after becoming a saint was to have cathedrals around the world provide weapons and armor for her subordinate warriors of light.

You should have at least one weapon and one set of armor, right?

Otherwise, wouldn't that be a disgrace to the Vatican?

But when she actually implemented it, she discovered that the decree was not absolute.

Even if the twelve archbishops don't directly oppose it, they will use various excuses to delay!

She finally got it done only after the Pope gave the order!

But now that I think about it... it seems that she wasn't mentioned directly.

Some of the servants reported that people were grateful to her, but it seemed that many more were grateful to the archbishop, the pope, or the Vatican.

She didn't pay attention to it at the time.

But now...

The problem seems a bit serious?

When Zi'an saw the pained expression on Hagi Sei's face, he couldn't help but laugh.

"So what stupid thing did you do?"

I'm just saying this to make everyone laugh.

Snapped!

"What's it to you!"

The saintess stomped her foot suddenly.

"You can't even tell the difference between that old bastard Farol and the managers here, and you dare ask me?! You bunch of bastards!"

Li Mosi pinched Hagi Saint's lips.

The saintess's eyes instantly fell on him, then on his hands that had just grasped the ink block.

"Mmm! Mmm!"

Don't touch her face with your dirty hands!

Seeing that she was still jumping, Li Mosi took out a lead disc with her free hand.

"Mmm~"

The saint suddenly stopped jumping and looked away.

"hey-hey."

Zi'an couldn't hold back.

Ugh.

Zi Yi smiled and shook his head, then looked up at Li Mosi.

"Master, if this place is too large, it seems difficult for the people to gather together. Moreover, it would take a lot of time to gather together, and it would require a large enough space, which we don't seem to have."

He couldn't calculate the time it would take, so he simply didn't say.

"I can't figure out how to solve this. Please teach me, Master."

Li Mosi used the [Happy Mountains and Waters] tool to take a look.

He had not yet seen the southernmost river that Zwan had mentioned, but he could already see what most of the estate looked like.

Now that it is fully light, the people have naturally begun their day's work.

Fattening livestock, gathering firewood, collecting wild vegetables...

He looked at the several manors he passed along the road.

Although the soldiers and estate leaders remained bound, the people continued to work as usual.

It's the same as when there were no managers.

This gave him the answer.

Li Mosi turned to look at Zi Yi.

"By breaking down the objectives of managing this territory into smaller, more specific steps, we can make our actions clearer."

"Baron Stern's Domain is different from those three knightly domains along the wall; it's far too far from the tribe. If we leave too many tribespeople here, there won't be anyone left at the tribe. Besides controlling the manor, we also need to manage more tribespeople with fewer people while keeping them obedient."

Ziyi and Zian nodded.

Li Mosi continued.

"Think about it, what's the difference between Farol and these three managers here?"

Based on what he had just said, Zi Yi answered immediately.

"Different status!"

"Yes! Farol is just a butler's assistant, but the three managers here have official positions and manpower!"

Zi'an slapped his thigh and explained in more detail.

That's right!

Li Mosi nodded.

"Therefore, we cannot proactively ask them to do things for us; we can only ask them to follow us when we are doing things for us."

"Although we can't directly manage this territory with our own people right now because we don't have enough managers and authority, we can use the existing managers to do the work and then gradually replace them."

"This is called putting new wine in an old barrel."
