Sir Fisher's hoarse and loud voice rang in the ears of many district chiefs. Everyone just moved their eyelids slightly, and the expressions on their faces were as calm as ever, as if they didn't care about it.
Seeing this, Sir Fisher lifted his spirits, raised his dry lips slightly, and raised his head like a proud rooster. He picked up the parchment he copied at hand, and declared loudly: "In order to let the local system To be more perfect, so that you can better serve the royal family and England, His Majesty the King suggests that the counties of East England should implement the following methods:
First, the heads of hundreds of districts and chiefs of thousands of households should be given their due remuneration. For example, the head of a hundred districts is ten pounds a year, and the head of a general district is fifteen pounds. Such a fair remuneration! "
When I heard that for thousands of years, I have been paid for serving the government, even the most indifferent people showed a happy smile at this moment.
After all, in this era, there is nothing that can soothe people's hearts more than the pound. As long as you have enough money, you can even buy the title of emperor.
Specific reference to the Holy Roman Emperor, the grandfather of King Charles V of Spain, Maxillian I.
Especially in this era of broken hearts, the charm of money is maximized.
So, it is a great thing to hear that being an official not only has power, but also money.
The thirteen district chiefs, all of different ages, all had joyful smiles on their faces, showing some black or yellow teeth. The happy factor keeps scratching people's weak hearts.
In fact, Sir Fisher was quite happy about being able to get the money. Although serving the king can bring a lot of prestige to the family and himself, the benefits he gets are very few.
After all, he is working in his hometown, and his every move can be known by the villagers. What's more, for the family's prestige, it is impossible for him to make large-scale profits.
So, a net income of fifteen pounds, in this era of inflation, is also a large sum, which can make him loose a lot.
Seeing how harmonious the atmosphere was, Sir Fisher nodded. After a while, after everyone's expressions softened, he restrained his smile, focused his eyes, and continued to speak slowly:
"In addition, His Majesty also requires that the head of the Hundred-Household District and the Chief District Chief of the Thousand-Household District must have the dignity that suits their status and deserves!"
"Your Excellency, what is the dignity that suits the status and deserves!"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, a middle-aged man with a beard was underneath, asking loudly in a rough voice.
Sir Fisher heard the voice and looked down from the stage. It turned out to be the well-known "Bold" Horner of South Cambridge. Then he smiled and said: "I can't tell the specifics, but it's a little bit." How many do you know!"
“First of all, our speech will no longer be blocked, and no one can arrest us with our speech!”
"Again, the courts that judge us are no longer the local manor courts and hundred-household courts, but the county courts, the London High Court, and the Star Chamber Court!"
"One more thing, Your Majesty also requests that the nobles treat us politely and civilly, and insulting words and actions should not exist!"
As he said that, Sir Fisher couldn't help but trembled his lips. Such a huge condition would definitely make the prestige of the hundred district chiefs and chief district chiefs rise sharply, even comparable to those hereditary nobles.
The shock in the hearts of the district chiefs below was even greater than that of Sir Fisher on the stage.
This is a complete move to elevate status, and it can also be said that it is a move that overrides all civilians.
In the past, although they had public duties, they served His Majesty the King.
Yes, the difference from ordinary people is almost the same except that they have more rights in their hands.
Besides the spontaneous respect of some people, in the eyes of those noble lords, in addition to disdain or disdain, expecting respect, it is better to expect ewes to grow horns!
Compared to this, the annual remuneration originally obtained from the county is nothing compared to this, and fame is much more important than money.
In English society at this time, fame is the guarantee for nobles and gentlemen, and it is also where they, squires and ordinary people, rely on to change their social status. A high and loud reputation can change a person or a family. destiny.
So, the joy on the faces of everyone at this time is from the heart, it is real, and it is not artificial.
Sir Fisher suppressed his excitement. He knew that his identity was different from them, at least, from now on, it would be different.
"Be quiet, gentlemen! If you need it, you can go out and discuss it!"
Sir Fisher's faint voice with a hint of blame slowly sounded, and the people who were excited and inexplicably realized that this is not a place for them to celebrate.
The dozens of district chiefs under the stage straightened up their demeanor immediately, and pricked up their ears, ready to continue listening to Sir Fisher, who brought the good news, with more good news coming out of his mouth.
So, the obedient people held their breath, opened their eyes wide, and waited quietly for the good news from Sir Fisher.
Seeing this, Sir Fisher lowered his head slightly, looked at the written decree in his hand, his right hand trembled slightly, and then continued.
"In order to improve efficiency and better serve His Majesty the King, officials in the county must be divided into equal positions, so that they can serve England stably and continuously!"
Sir Fisher raised his head, looked at the crowd with a hint of surprise on their faces, and said carefully word by word:
"The head of the hundred districts must bow to the head of the district, and the head of the district must bow to the officials of the counties. Moreover, this will be promulgated in the form of law. Anyone who violates the law will face punishment!"
As soon as Sir Fisher's murderous voice came out, the entire room fell silent, and it was obvious that everyone took a big breath of air.
After all, if the situation is true, then the status of the hundreds of district chiefs at the bottom will plummet in the officialdom.
And you should know that in the past, except for the size of the management area, the head of the hundred districts and the head of the county had the same status at other times.
They, like the sheriff and the county captain, are directly under the king and appointed by the king (the head of the hundred districts is generally elected by the villagers and approved by the king).
The status is equal and parallel, there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and the salute between meeting each other is only polite, not compulsory.
Such a clearly stipulated division of superiority and inferiority caused the cheerful district chiefs to discuss one after another.
Let me declare that the author is not bald, but has thinning hair. Also, please don’t stay up late, it’s all caused by staying up late and eating irregularly!
