The reception room of Rose Manor. Sylvia is meeting with the family's internal affairs officer Anthony and the secret agent Aqil.

"This kind of giant brick kiln is completely different from the brick kilns we know! Their biggest feature is their size! Running such a giant brick kiln cannot be completed by a few or dozens of people!"

Anthony York is a direct descendant of the York family. Since he did not have the talent of an awakened knight, he was sent to the Silver White Tower by his family to learn various knowledge. Ten years of life in the White Tower cost a lot of money, and Anthony, who is smart and studious, lived up to expectations.

He became a White Tower scholar and was proficient in farming, animal husbandry, smelting, brewing, and construction. After returning to the family, Anthony was appointed as the family's internal officer and received the title of Lord.

Anthony was shocked when he just saw the design drawings of the Brick Kiln Village. He had never thought that a brick kiln could be built larger than a villa. Coupled with a tall chimney of dozens of meters, the giant brick kiln was like a small castle!

"Yes, Lord Anthony. There are more than 300 villagers in Brick Kiln Village, and they are only responsible for making bricks. Baron Victor is even planning to expand the population of Brick Kiln Village to 500 people!" Aqil said respectfully.

"Three hundred people?! So many people using one brick kiln? This is impossible! So many people crowded together will only make chaos, and they can't do anything well! Unless they are strictly trained like the army." Anthony shook his head in disbelief.

.

"Anthony, the facts cannot be denied. Baron Victor's Brick Kiln Village has indeed done it, and I think this is a brand new thing." Sylvia said lightly: "Azil, explain to the Interior Minister, Brick Kiln Village

How is it done?”

"Yes, madam." Azir bowed and said: "The villagers in Zhuanyao Village are divided into many groups, and each group only does one thing. Cut firewood, collect soil, sift soil, collect water, make embryos, dry, and burn.

There are dedicated people responsible for every link including kiln, drying, and transportation. Therefore, there is absolutely no chaos."

Anthony was stunned for a long time before murmuring: "A person only does one thing?! So, if a person only does one thing, not only will there be no chaos, but he will become more and more efficient, because he only does one thing."

The villagers will become more and more proficient at this thing! Making bricks is not a simple thing, and not everyone can do it! Breaking the complex process into simple steps is just right for the ignorant people, and there is no need to teach them how to do it.

Making bricks. What a genius idea!”

"Which master designed this method for Baron Victor? Is it Master Edwin?" Anthony asked Azil excitedly.

Craftsmen are valuable talents, and it takes more than ten years to cultivate a qualified craftsman. Although the people who make bricks cannot be called craftsmen, there are only a few who are proficient in the know-how. They are selected from more than a thousand ordinary people.

Three hundred brickmakers, this is almost impossible! Division of labor and cooperation solved this problem perfectly. Anthony was eye-opening and deeply admired at the same time. He was convinced that this groundbreaking design was definitely the work of a master scholar.

Results.

"It's Baron Victor himself. The baron calls this division of labor and cooperation." Azir replied.

Anthony frowned. He really didn't expect that this method was actually invented by Victor. As far as he knew, Baron Victor was only 18 years old and had no experience of studying in the White Tower. There were rumors that Baron Victor just

A court aristocrat who is ignorant of affairs.

Could it be that Victor is a genius? Thinking of this, Anthony is a little frustrated. Although he has not been able to awaken his talent as a knight, he has always claimed to be smart. For an unlearned and unskilled court noble like Baron Victor, Anthony is still very superior.

He was grateful, but now he felt an indescribable sense of loss.

"Baron Victor is indeed very smart, but he is only 18 years old. I mean, did he really come up with the division of labor and cooperation alone?" Anthony asked unwillingly.

"I am also very interested in this issue. Azir, are you sure that no one is secretly helping Victor?" Sylvia also asked with interest.

Sylvia can believe that the giant brick kiln is the result of the design of the old Marquis of Wimbledon. But she never believes that the giant brick kiln has not been built yet, and the old Marquis has already figured out how to operate it. If the old Marquis really has such a

Cai Zhi would not be forced into a corner by his relatives, leaving him with no heirs, and finally had to let Sophia inherit his career.

If the division of labor and cooperation was really designed by Victor, Sylvia would not be surprised. Victor has given her too many surprises. But it cannot be ruled out that there is someone secretly supporting Victor behind the scenes. Sylvia must

To find out.

Azir understood Sylvia's concerns, but he had been lurking around Victor for so long and never found anyone secretly contacting Baron Victor. On the contrary, it was Victor's talent that amazed Azil, because Azil

I know the origin of division of labor and cooperation.

"Madam, I am very sure that no one is secretly helping Baron Victor. In fact, Baron Victor did not come up with the way the Brick Kiln Village operates."

Azir said: "Baron Victor called the village leaders together for a meeting. He proposed an idea and then ordered everyone to perfect the details for him. If the effect the baron wanted was not achieved, the village leaders would take the problem to the next level.

We will go back to our own villagers group to discuss, and we will continue the discussion at the next meeting. The location selection, personnel deployment, and operation methods of division of labor and cooperation in Zhuanyao Village were decided at such a meeting."

After secretly observing Sylvia's expression, Azil lowered his eyes and continued: "Baron Victor requires all participants in the meeting to speak freely and fully express their opinions. Since everyone is sitting at a round table

The baron called such a meeting a round table."

"This, this is so ridiculous! How can those lowly free people be allowed to participate in the affairs of the territory! Oh, I'm sorry, noble countess, please forgive me for being rude. I just think that Baron Victor is unworthy of the nobility by doing this.

of decency.”

Anthony suppressed his inner anger and bowed to Sylvia to apologize.

Sylvia chuckled and said: "When Baron Victor took office, there were neither knights nor scholars around him. Apart from hundreds of free people, Victor could not find anyone to assist him. Implementing the Round Table Conference was of great benefit to the Baron.

It’s indeed a good idea.”

Saying that, Sylvia glanced at Anthony. She knew very well the reason for Anthony's excitement. Victor's round table meeting was in line with Master Edwin's ideas, while Anthony just held the opposite view. The debate between scholars, Sylvia

Via is not interested, but the giant brick kiln is related to the family's grand plan and cannot be lost!

Thinking of this, Sylvia's expression condensed and she said solemnly: "Anthony, I don't care about the division of labor and the origin of the giant brick kiln. I just want to ask you, can your family build a giant brick kiln?"

"Madam, please rest assured! With these drawings, I can definitely build a giant brick kiln. In fact, there are still many shortcomings in this drawing. I can make some improvements. This can further increase the brick production of the giant brick kiln." Anthony Bin

Answered politely.

Sylvia smiled and said: "Very good! Anthony, you really did not disappoint me. I hope you can come up with a better design before the end of the war."

"Yes, madam. If there is nothing else, I will go back and redesign the giant brick kiln."

"Go ahead."

After Anthony left, Sylvia turned to Azil and asked: "Running a brick kiln village won't just rely on division of labor and cooperation, right?"

"Yes, ma'am. There are still people in Brick Kiln Village who coordinate and supervise the villagers who work in division of labor, formulate production plans according to Baron Victor's requirements, and mobilize the enthusiasm of the villagers through the reward and punishment system. After all, making bricks is very hard.

.The person in charge of these affairs is the village chief Dean." Azir said with admiration

Azir participated in the entire construction of Brick Kiln Village, but he knew little about the operation of Brick Kiln Village. He only knew that it was a very complicated matter. Anyway, after Dean was appointed as the head of Brick Kiln Village, he kept looking for Vic every day.

After more discussion, it took a full month for Zhuanyao Village to get back on track.

Sylvia thought for a while and asked calmly: "Is that Dean willing to become a subject of our York family?"

"He...he seems reluctant to give up his status as a vassal. If we also give him a fiefdom, Dean will definitely join us." Azir said awkwardly.

Sylvia sneered, "Is it so easy to obtain the identity of a vassal of our York family? Baron Victor's lesson is obvious to all."

"Azil, keep an eye on Victor's group and don't let them have private contact with others. When Victor returns to Black Castle Town, these people will naturally join the family."

"Yes, madam. I will definitely do it."

——————————————

In an elegant room in Rose Manor, Lilia looked at the mirror in trance. In the mirror was a girl with bright eyes and white teeth, dark eyebrows and cherry lips, fair complexion, but a touch of sadness shrouded her eyebrows.

Lilia never thought she would be so beautiful, and she had never lived in such a luxurious room, but she was not happy at all.

Since Lilia was placed here, three maids have changed her into a beautiful long dress and put on exquisite jewelry. As long as she rings the bell, an attendant will immediately provide her with meticulous service. This is the noble person that ordinary people dream of.

Life is not what she wants now.

Lilia wanted to see the countess, but the countess did not summon her, and the well-trained maids did not tell her about the situation outside. Lilia was helpless.

"Lilia, we are here to see you."

Lilia was particularly surprised by Nicole's voice. When she opened the door, she saw Nicole and Bruce.

"Sister Nicole! Lord Bruce!"

Lilia wanted to salute Bruce, but couldn't remember what kind of etiquette the maid should use when meeting the knight.

Nicole grabbed Lilia who was at a loss and said excitedly: "Lilia, Teacher Trishley helped me convince Mrs. Sylvia. She has agreed to let the teacher take us to rescue Victor."

"Ah! I want to go with you." Lilia said hurriedly.

Bruce stepped forward and said gently: "Lilia, it is very dangerous to rescue Victor this time. We can't take you with us. However, you can help us contact Victor."

"Master Bruce, you mean Black Feather! That's right, why didn't I expect that! If Black Feather can find me, he will definitely be able to find Victor!" Lilia's eyes lit up and she said happily.

Nicole took Lilia's hand and said sincerely: "Lilia, Victor knows your handwriting. Write him a letter and ask him to wait for us near the old ogre's lair. We will definitely send him

Brought back safely!"

"good!"
