New lands of the Burtons...
The promised day ca, at last, the day when both hopes and swords were raised high.
Normal mortal citizens and so large families await for what they were promised, and the rebels gathered and prepared their equipnt for the incoming wave of destruction...
When the first light broke, Large numbers of citizens and representatives of the large families marched in droves and gathered around the five factories...
Dozens of rebels were scattered everywhere among their ranks, ready to launch the attack and gain the montum of the angry crowds when the inevitable is announced... which is to postpone what was promised.
The knights that were bringing them the news and weapons told them that it is impossible for a noble family to put that much money for the welfare of the mortals, and even more impossible that they will hand a law technique to their enemies on a golden plate!
It is a fact that both of them or at least one will get canceled under one reason or another, and it is their turn to take advantage of that...
After those few rebels among the crowds start the spark and provoke a fight with the invader's soldiers, thousands of rebels will attack from nurous different gathering points near by!
when such a large fight begins, in addition to the anger and the feeling of being deceived taking over the crowds, the hundreds of thousands of the people gathered around the factories will surely join the fight
But the dreams are bound to co to an end... the hopes of the rebels were shattered like an egg crashing into a rock when the saints responsible for protecting every factory ca out to address the masses, and announced the acceptance of thousands of workers and begin to employ them from today with salaries of at least ten tis what they were getting paid before...
The rebels felt at loss.. the anger they were anticipating from the people beca cries of joy, and hundreds of thousands of citizens rushed to register themselves as workers for the Burton family production lines.
The only hope of the rebels now was the big families...
But even then the saints announced they are welcoming any family that wants to swear allegiance to the Burtons, and if they agreed to certain terms, they can take the minor law cultivation technique today!
Then the representatives of the big families were offered to speak with the saint inside the factories as honored guests and were treated in front of the masses with respect, even though none of them was a knight...
Everything was just perfect, there was now any hole that the rebels can use to agitate any party, they were left standing among the crowds, raging and aimless...
Their plan to exploit the people's anger has failed miserably.
But they didn't know that this should be their last worry... as their friends' gathering points were getting hamred right now!
Elite squads of knights ca out of every factory secretly and searched around for the gathering points of the rebels, it was clear to them that there would be an attack that day, and their best option was to make a preemptive strike...
Many squads and each one has tens of knights, scattered and searched, and if one of the squads found one of the rebel gathering points, they would imdiately attack it rcilessly!
Although the nurical difference was extrely huge, the high-ranking knights were almost invincible among them, like a group of lions among thousands of rabbits...
The attacks killed of the elite squads killed almost 4 thousands of the repels and many more manage to flee every direction like locust
That day, a massive massacre took place that broke the rebels' spine.
--------
Away from the bloody massacres that targeted the ranks and gatherings of the rebels, everything seed to be turning for the better.
Within 5 days, the work applications for the Burton family production lines have reached more than 200 thousand requests!
The Burton family's army who were carrying their weapons day and night laid down their swords and bows, and took hold of paper and pens to take applications orders and organize the masses...
While the older knights took over the task of selecting the between the applications and placing them in the jobs that suited their abilities most.
The factories themselves will not need more than a thousand workers, about two hundred of them to give the furnaces its desired energy supply and make sure it is working day and night...
while the rest are to transport raw materials to and from the furnaces, and so of them to make molds of weapons, and so of them pour the liquid tals from the furnaces into those molds to form the weapons, and those who will cool weapons...
Then there are those with the more technical background and knows a little about being a blacksmith, they will make the handles, shafts, and the joints for body armor, and those roles that demand a certain level of craft...
fortunately, the factories were not the only place that needed workers.
The majority of the workers required are to work in the mines all over the new lands in order to extract the high level minerals needed by the factories
This type of mineral is not rare in the literal sense, it can be found with relative ease... but it is difficult to extract and transport due to its intense weight, if soone desired to extract it as excessively at the iron, then he will need many, maaany mortals and even many cultivators to do the work.
and because there was no need to extract large quantities of it due to the lack of knight blacksmiths, no one cared to do it much...
if needed, a few knights would head out every now and then to get a big chunk for their family and they would go out to get so more when it is used... But ti has changed now
40 thousand workers were assigned to work in the mines throughout the new territory, and a few hundred n were assigned to search for potential mines!
Nine thousand workers were also selected to back up all the above and link them... they would transport the raw materials to the factories, secure the caravans, cook for everyone, and take care of the rest of the logistics
Within a few days, more than 50 thousand workers were distributed to their new jobs, many tis the usual salaries for these jobs!
... In fact, there was no need for all these numbers, less than a quarter would do just as fine, but orders ca from the patriarch that if they needed one person for a job, they must appoint five for it.
But even with all this generosity on the table, there were still more than 150 thousand applicants without work, and applications are still submitted daily...
-------
anwhile, discussions with potential noble families continued for a few days as well
In the beginning, seven families advanced and announced that they were ready to serve the Burtons,
But when the saints explained the oath tablets and what they need to swear upon, their enthusiasm vanished... with the new threat of the Oath tablets and that they would demand the seriousness in this matter and total loyalty under the Burton family * the invaders * 3 of them withdrew...
As for the representatives of the remaining four families, they returned to gather the 10 elders wanted for the oath, and then they were asked to gather in the main factory after one week to recite the oath and receive the law technology.
And the week went by so fast~
40 Elders all level 10, including 4 the Family Heads took the oaths one by one in front of Billy and received copies of the Minor Heavenly Law Technique.
an Intense week for everyone participating in this matter, but it was also as rewarding at its end
The mbers of the four families returned to their cities happily, that they had finally fulfilled their ancestors' dream and obtained a Minor Law Technique, they finally can beco knights...
And Billy went back to what he was doing even happier that his family has obtained thousands of new loyal followers!
These four families had over 30,000 descendants combined, and a huge number of them had reached the tenth level of Energy Foundation!
When all of them take a look at the law technology that will enable them to take the next step... Billy didn't dare to think about the scene in these families a few years later.
And this was just the beginning!
When the rest of the families see the advantages which the four families have and the influence of the Burtons, and the strength and power they will quickly gain from the law techniques, they themselves will hasten to throw themselves into the arms of the Burtons.
It is only a matter of ti.
