At last, the social and cultural development of the territory was addressed.
Social culture encompasses both religion and education.
Lynn did not need any religious presence in his territory.
If he had to establish a spiritual belief for these townsmen,
it could only be him—Lynn!
Among these, the most necessary development was education within the territory.
Providing the townsmen with opportunities for education and cultivating talent.
At the same time, encouraging the development of cultural arts, collecting and preserving books, artworks, and more.
Enhancing the cultural atmosphere and soft power within the territory!
Lynn felt that he had always been striving toward these four major areas.
However,
some aspects require a long time to accumulate and settle before they can gradually be realized.
As Lynn pondered.
The sound of footsteps echoed from afar.
Lynn returned to his senses and looked up.
He saw Erin, wearing a gray scholar’s robe, walking toward him.
Erin slightly bowed her head, passed through the reception hall, and finally stood at the base of the lord’s throne steps.
Erin bent slightly, speaking respectfully, "Lord, my apologies for disturbing you so late."
Lynn responded, asking, "Is there a problem that you need my help with?"
Standing below, Erin quickly explained, "Master, you misunderstand."
"The territorial regulations and systems you requested have been preliminarily drafted."
"I came to report and present them to you."
As she spoke.
Erin took out a scroll of parchment with both hands and placed it before herself.
Without needing Lynn to speak, Red, who was waiting nearby, stepped forward to take it.
Passing it to Lynn, seated on the lord’s throne.
Unrolling the parchment in hand, the neatly arranged ink-written text entered his view.
Lynn’s gaze moved, beginning to review it.
Standing below, Erin started explaining to Lynn.
"Lord, because I did not know if you had other requirements for the territorial law of this territory,"
"I could only broadly reference the territorial laws from other territories."
"In them, I modified many regulations that I found unreasonable."
"For instance, rights of first night, discriminatory regulations against peasants, and restrictions on the transfer and disposal of land."
"Especially the ’law of servitude after one year and one day of breathing the manor’s air’!"
"Originally meant for the statute of limitations on movables, it was used by lords as a means to enslave the Free People!"
"This is extremely unreasonable!"
"Of course, Master Lynn, I am speaking of the regulations implemented in other territories."
"Your territory is different from theirs!"
The Lynn Master before her was, of course, different from other lords.
Because Master Lynn was already implementing a territorial development model she hadn’t heard of or seen before.
A military merit-based promotion system, and a garrison system that hadn’t yet begun to be implemented!
Just within the military merit-based promotion system...
All townsmen had the opportunity for identity enhancement.
All townsmen could earn military achievements through labor and exchange them for privatized land belonging to the townsmen!
Leaving other things aside.
Just these two points already made the development model on Master Lynn’s territory surpass this era!
The territorial law she was now drafting,
was merely to produce a document with textual efficacy and legal provisions for Master Lynn’s territory.
Seeing Master Lynn uninterested, Erin continued explaining.
"Master Lynn, the initial draft of territorial law includes sections related to the constitution, criminal law, civil law, and procedural law, among others."
