Chapter 979: It is forbidden to use magic when playing football!
“On October 10, Magdi Financial News reported:

The Holy Lady Bank will suspend the financial activities of the Steel Union from today and simultaneously implement the equity restructuring plan.

According to the announcement of the Holy Maternity Guardianship Bureau, private mine shares will be converted into stocks and bonds based on net value, as well as a certain amount of pious banknotes.

The policy involves 17 major large-scale mining complexes in North Mound County, and six of them have already accepted accounting.”

“On October 10, Pravda reported:

Catherine, director of the Holy Maternity Guardianship Bureau, participated in the Lightning Furnace Technology Demonstration today.

This technology improves steelmaking efficiency by lightning speed, and the measured production capacity has increased by about 300% compared with traditional processes.

More than 30 representatives from small and medium-sized mines and technicians attended the event, and about 30% of the dwarf smelters signed the technical employment agreement of the Holy Hammer Monastery on the spot.

Director Catherine said in response to reporters' questions: "Technology iteration is the only way for industrial upgrading."

“On October 10, the North Mound Times reported:

According to people familiar with the matter, five local traditional noble mines recently broke away from the Steel Guild and signed independent operation agreements with the Holy Maternity Guardianship Bureau.

During the same period, 47 new dwarf craftsmen were registered in the Holy Court, most of whom were core members of the original guild.

The Iron and Steel Guild's dwarf master Gentmo said he respected the members' independent choices, but did not respond to specific operational questions.

“On November 11, Pravda reported:
A special task force of the Holy Childcare Bureau conducted surprise inspections on 29 small and medium-sized smelters in North Mound County and shut down 11 smelters on the spot that failed to meet the standards.

The smelters under rectification must participate in standardization training, and their operating rights will be directly linked to production capacity indicators.

The Fifth Battalion of the Shishiyuan Army Garrison Regiment entered the mining area at the same time to perform security tasks. "

"On November 11, the Advisory Council's bulletin reprinted internal public information:

Former Iron and Steel Guild Master Bart was sentenced for allegedly covering up safety violations.

The court found that he had violated the newly promulgated "Miners' Protection Regulations" and sentenced him to exile and compensation for the injured, disabled and dead miners.

The trial was open to the public, with more than 100 miners’ representatives and smelter supervisors attending as observers.

“On October 11, Pravda reported:

The Holy Maternity Guardianship Bureau announced today that it has completed the initial restructuring of the Iron and Steel Guild, planning to split the original guild into three holy departments: mining, smelting, and processing, which will be managed by the Holy Hammer Monastery.

Director Catherine emphasized at the signing ceremony: The new mechanism will continuously optimize production capacity through four-year cycle accounting.

According to the planning documents, the target output of pig iron in 1457 is confirmed to be 8000 tons. "

After closing the briefing copied by the privy monks, Horn wrapped his scarf tightly and wiped his nose with a handkerchief: "It seems that the most critical step has been completed. The next step is to polish it."

Madeleine sat opposite Horn, with rice wine still warm on the charcoal stove on the table.

The air in December was exceptionally cold, and steam was bubbling from the wine jug.

After hearing Horn's words, he laughed and said, "The saints are all outstanding people."

Catherine's method is very simple. First, she suspends financial activities and business operations, and then flexes her muscles, using a single move to break the surface and kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Combined with the threat of force, they pulled one group together and beat another, easily dissolving their will to resist.

Apart from anything else, these saints and ministers who were able to accomplish things all had one distinct characteristic, which was their strong drive for action.
Do what you say without any delay.

Under the relay of Halkin and Catherine, this interest group that originally occupied the mining area of ​​North Mound County finally collapsed in the winter of 1453.

"Well, I'm the happiest today."

Horn was in a good mood. He stood up, walked to the edge of the platform, held the railing with both hands, and looked down at the cold white sky.

On the grass, the guards and the Chekas ran back and forth, chasing a red-painted ball.

The most eye-catching one among them was a tall girl.

Although she is already 24 years old, due to the witch's anti-aging effect, Jeanne still looks like an 18-year-old girl.

The skin that had been tanned in Black Snake Bay returned to its fair color in just three months.

It was extremely cold in the Holy See today, and people were all wearing thick woolen cloth and sweaters.

Only Jeanne was still wearing her shirt and leather vest, running across the grass, carrying the ball.

He passed through the Cheka who blocked him one after another, elbowed the goalkeeper, and instantly shot the red football into the goal frame. The players representing the Guards monks cheered, and the hundreds of monks and officers around them laughed or cursed in frustration.

Carrie, who was on the field, even shouted and scolded in a rare manner: "Go squeeze her, why are you shrinking back?"

As for the goalkeeper whose front teeth were crooked by the elbow, he received Carrie's praise.

I finally got half a day off today, neither more nor less.

Horn simply organized the Cheka and the guards from the mountain villa to have a friendly match.

"The soldiers all like this sport very much." Hakuto, the chief exorcist, also held the railing. "Sometimes they are very tired from training, so they still go and kick a few times before going back."

"Soldiers need entertainment activities every now and then." Horn looked at the soldiers running around the court and felt his feet itchy again.

With the economy developing to this point, there are new dramas, puppet shows, serialized novels, picture books, etc. in cultural and entertainment fields.

But in sports, it is still limited to the knight sports of the past.

Lance charges and polo are exciting, but they are too demanding. Ordinary people simply cannot afford to play, cannot understand, and have no sense of participation.

As the saying goes, culture and sports should flourish together, one cannot just focus on culture and entertainment, so Horn brought football in.

Popular things are always similar, and soon, football became popular among soldiers that winter.

It just so happens that, judging from the current situation, we will be able to have the first football league by this time next year.

But Horn is not planning to organize a professional league, but just an amateur league, just for fun.

By then, we will hold the Holy League Twenty-Four Counties Football League, which will also drive the development of the surrounding economy. Such activities are rare.

As for whether he can attract audiences, Horn is very confident.

Just look at the frequency of fights among county representatives each year and you’ll know that this ticket is a surefire seller.

However, for superhumans like Jeanne and Carrie, it’s better not to let them play football with ordinary people.

You can set levels later, such as the group below three stages, the group from three to six stages, the group above six stages, and so on.

Picking up the hot wine on the table, Horn drank it all in one gulp. Feeling his body getting hot, he threw away his scarf.

"Come on, I'll go on the field and kick a few times too!"

ten minutes later.

Horn, who had put on his scarf again, sat in Shilov's wheelchair with his ankle bandaged, and was pushed back by Shilov, who was trying to hold back her laughter.

As for Jeanne and Carrie, they followed behind them, wiping the sweat off their face.

This time, they stood on the same front, which was rare.

"Brother, you really need to work out more."

"Unexpected!" Horn's face was gloomy and he had to force himself to say, "You guys are only at the fourth or fifth level of breathing technique. Of course I can't beat you."

"What does it have to do with breathing techniques? No matter who is your opponent or teammate, whoever gets the ball won't pass it to you, Papa."

Jeanna followed up, "Didn't you sprain your ankle when you missed the ball while shooting?"

Shilov's smile was almost unbearable: "You did a backflip at that time, I thought you had some special skills."

Horn's face was now dark red, and he could only mutter incomprehensible words such as "long pass", "short pass penetration", and "hat trick".

Returning to the small platform, Madeleine's face was also flushed, but it was not known whether it was because of drinking or because she was trying not to laugh.

"Your Majesty, just now the Holy See Building said that several shareholders of the spice company Fran want to see you..."

"No." Horn was unhappy at the moment, "Any important questions?"

"The news of the tariff agreement reached France. They questioned whether they needed to reduce the production of spices next year. If the profits were not enough, they might withdraw their investment..."

"It's up to you to withdraw or not." Horn took a sip of the wine on the table unhappily, "Tell them that there will definitely be sales and more profit than before. If you believe me, I will follow you. If you don't believe me, I won't force you."

At this point, Horn's emotions gradually calmed down. He took another sip of wine and asked Hakuto, "How's it going over there, Das?"
