The entire book is divided into four main sections.

However, the sheer variety of smaller projects left Link dizzy and overwhelmed.

After watching for a while, Link suddenly felt a headache coming on and couldn't watch anymore.

Link quickly put down his book and rubbed his temples.

"Let's leave these books for now. The math, physics, and chemistry books aren't too difficult to understand. Once school starts, we'll have the teachers teach the children to read first. In the meantime, we'll use the math, physics, and chemistry books to teach the students." Link casually put all the books into his system's personal inventory space and then thought to himself.

"Oh, right, I also need to select some clerks to educate the children." With that thought, Link stood up from his desk and went outside.

Among the newly joined slaves, the new people, there were many children who needed education.

This matter cannot be taken lightly.

Link needs to work on the mindset of the younger generation to ensure their loyalty and that they will serve the North when they grow up.

......

Soon, messages were being sent out from the municipal center.

"What? You want me to be a school teacher? To teach children knowledge?" When Baslin heard this news, he was extremely surprised.

"It turns out that the rumors about the recent construction of a school to teach children in the city are true."

"Yes, I really didn't expect that the lord would actually pass on this precious knowledge to those slave children unconditionally." In the office, many clerks started chatting and joking with each other.

"Clerk Basilin, please pack your things immediately. You are being transferred from your current unit to a new school today. Your salary will also increase from ten silver coins per month to fifty silver coins per month," the municipal worker who came to inform Basilin said.

"And Andrin, Catherine, and Dekiser, the three of you will also be transferred from this unit to a new school unit along with Clerk Basilin. Your treatment will be the same as Clerk Basilin's."

"And us?"

Anderlin and the others were taken aback.

They not only didn't resist, but were actually quite delighted.

Because their wages have increased significantly.

"Teachers can actually earn such high salaries?"

"I really envy those four."

The remaining clerks looked at the four of them with great envy.

"How much money do you think the lord can make by opening this school?"

"I think it should be quite a lot. After all, there are many people working hard in the city now, and people's salaries are generally not low. So if Your Lordship were to charge a fee, you should be able to make quite a bit of money."

On the other side, several clerks were talking.

After all, their general perception is that knowledge is noble.

Lord Link's decision to open a school to teach ordinary people's children is likely a means of recouping his investment.

After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch; that's a truth everyone knows.

Naturally, I felt that if I wanted to attend this school, I would have to pay a lot of money.

At least a dozen silver coins were necessary at that time.

However, the scribes also felt that the money was well worth it for ordinary people who lacked knowledge, because they could learn the knowledge that was monopolized by nobles in the outside world at the schools in the North.

In the human kingdoms, although the capital city of King's Landing also has schools, they are aristocratic schools, which can only be attended by the children of nobles and wealthy merchants.

Ordinary people, let alone learning knowledge, probably can't even afford the exorbitant tuition fees.

Take these clerks for example. They had never studied at the schools in the capital. They had only learned some knowledge and literacy from other places.

That alone makes them very rare talents.

"The fact that Your Lordship has established a school, enabling ordinary people to learn knowledge, is an immense act of kindness."

A clerk sighed and said.

"Yes, if when I was a child, there had been a place like the North that would allow an ordinary person like me to learn knowledge, then I wouldn't have had to eavesdrop every day and then study on my own."

"The next generation of children are really lucky."

Many of the documents expressed admiration.

Basilin and the others finally understood what the situation was.

Link told them to report to the newly established school.

Go ahead and report it.

Establishing schools and imparting knowledge to children of ordinary people is a tremendous good thing.

The other people in the group were very excited.

But only Basilin seemed somewhat worried.

Because knowledge has always been monopolized by the nobility.

Ordinary people who learn to read and write by chance are not cared about by the nobles.

Because there are ultimately too few ordinary people who understand writing and knowledge.

However, once schools are established and knowledge is openly imparted to a large number of ordinary people, these things cross the line for the nobility!

This was exactly what Baslin was worried about.

The kingdom is now in decline, and Baslin, who has a basic understanding of the North's strength, does not believe that the North will fear those nobles.

But the biggest problem is those magicians.

This was also what Baslin was most worried about.

Don't forget, magic is taught in schools, and if those magicians hear about what the North has done, they certainly won't let it go.

Because the actions of the North violated their goal of monopolizing magical knowledge and infringed upon their interests.

There are only one in ten thousand magicians.

Those magicians would usually only take on one or two apprentices to teach them magical knowledge. They possessed such powerful abilities that even the king at the time regarded them as honored guests.

A powerful magician is a figure revered wherever he/she goes.

They would probably never allow that magical knowledge to flow into the common people, thereby affecting their status and rights!

With that thought in mind, Basilin quickly left the school, found Link, and told him his concerns. Link was also surprised.

"Would it offend those magicians if I built a school?"

Link looked at Baslin and said.

"Yes, my lord, the monopoly of knowledge is a rule established by those mages. Their purpose is to better rule the common people and wield supreme power. After all, it is easier for them to rule if the common people are ignorant. By doing this, my lord, you are undoubtedly openly challenging the mages. This news will probably not be kept secret. Those mages will definitely send people to investigate. If they declare war on the Northern Territory, the consequences will be unimaginable." Baslin said with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Basilin".

Link placed his hand on the table, his fingers tapping lightly on the surface, producing a crisp and clear "knock knock knock" sound.

Hearing this, Link looked at him and asked, "Do you believe me?"

"Of course I trust you, my lord."

“Alright, I will not regret opening schools and spreading knowledge to ordinary people.” Link said firmly, “You must understand one thing: the development of the North is limitless! No one can stop the North’s progress. Like a rolling wheel that keeps moving forward, anyone who wants to stop the North’s progress is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating their own strength!”

“So, Basilin, I know you truly have your heart set on the North, but today I want to tell you, don’t worry, the North has the strength to not fear the power of mages!” Link stood up and said with utmost confidence.

Although he didn't know why Link didn't care about those magicians, Baslin was still infected by Link's confidence.

"My lord, even if we go to war with mages in the future, I will stand firmly on your side, on the side of the North. By the way, my lord, may I ask how much the school tuition will be? I have a friend in the North whose child is just ten years old. I'll inquire for him. If the cost is too high, I'm willing to pay it for him." Baslin asked Link before leaving.

At this moment, Baslin felt a little uneasy, as he was afraid that Link would say a huge number.

After all, Baslin knew that knowledge, such a precious thing, could not be passed on to ordinary people for free.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

But Link's next words stunned Baslin.

"Charge? Why should we charge? The Northern government will cover all the costs of our children's education and training; we won't charge any fees."

Link paused for a moment, then answered.

"What!? Free!?"

Basilin's eyes widened, unable to contain his shock, and he cried out.

"Yes. It's free."

Link picked at his ear; he was somewhat startled by the shrill tone.

"It's free!" Baslin was somewhat dazed.

But when he saw that Link's expression wasn't joking.

Realizing Link's determination, Baslin suddenly had a premonition.

Yes, the world needs a new leader to guide it forward.

And this so-called leader...

Perhaps, the man in front of me really is capable of leading the world!

Having obtained his answer, Basling left Link's office and continued on his way to report to the school.

From then on, he became a proud teacher.

Spread knowledge to ordinary people.

After reporting to the school and confirming his position, Basilin ran all the way to his friend's house.

It was around afternoon. Johnny, Basilin's friend, was an ordinary farmer who had lost his wife early and was raising his son alone.

The war triggered by the kingdom's rivalry between the two kings destroyed everything he had, but he was luckier than anyone else.

Because he successfully brought his son to the North alive.

They settled down in the North and started a new life.

Johnny now works as a construction worker.

Commonly known as bricklaying.

Although it's hard work, the pay is good, and Johnny can make a comfortable life for himself and his son in the North with his job.

In fact, everyone in the North lives a very comfortable life.

All of this is something Johnny, who used to struggle to get enough to eat and wear, could never have imagined.

Just yesterday, Johnny finished a construction project and was given a three-day holiday to rest.

Coincidentally, the construction project Johnny worked on was the newly expanded school in the North.

Johnny already knew that the lord was going to build schools so that more children in the North could attend school.

So, Johnny had a plan in mind.

He wants his ten-year-old son to go to school.

He had saved up a few silver coins while working in the North for the past two months.

Johnny thought that he should take advantage of this opportunity, even if he had to borrow some money from outside, to raise enough tuition fees so that his son could go to school and learn the precious knowledge that was previously exclusive to the nobility!

"The school run by the lord teaches us ordinary commoners' children, so the fees must be quite high. Johnny, my son died while we were fleeing famine, and all this time, I've treated your son as my own. Take these three silver coins; they're for the child. You're not allowed to give them back! If you dare to return the money, then we're done. I'll never have a friend like you again!"

"I am already deeply grateful to the lord for taking us in, giving us jobs, and providing us with a comfortable life. But I never expected that the lord would also be willing to impart knowledge to us commoner children. I... I..."

At Johnny's home, looking at his friends who had selflessly pooled their money for him, Johnny spoke through tears.

His voice was filled with gratitude.

"Alright, I don't even know if the twenty silver coins we scraped together for you are enough for your tuition."

A friend patted Johnny on the shoulder.
