Two days later, a Magic Sedan quickly left Arafat Town.
Winnie came back out the window and turned back to watch her big sister and brother-in-law gradually disappearing into the distance, as a trace of unwillingness appeared in her eyes.
After being in a daze for a bit, she turned back to look at Hawat sitting beside her. She found that although there was a trace of unwillingness and fear in his eyes, there was more excitement and anticipation.
Winnie couldn't help smiling. She reached out to pat Hawat's head and asked in a gentle voice, "Hawat, you've grown this big, but this should be your first time being this far from home, right?"
Hawat thought about it before giving a strong nod. He replied in a loud voice, "Un, the furthest I went before was to Moro City with my father."
"Moro City?
That place is only thirty kilometers away from your home.
But this time you're following us to a place that's over a thousand kilometers away, are you afraid? "Winnie asked.
Hawat thought for a bit before shaking his head.
"I'm not afraid. With little aunt watching over me, I'm not afraid."
Winnie laughed before patting his head. She took out some prepared sweets from her bag and gave them to Hawat. Seeing that he was happy eating them, she looked at the front of the Magic Sedan and said in a worried voice to Yothean who was driving, "I've thought about it and I feel that it isn't reliable for brother-in-law to be the principal of this elementary school."
"Oh?" Yothean looked forward and didn't turn back.
"You also know brother-in-law, he doesn't know many words at all. Now that you're letting him be the principal of a school that teaches children how to read, this doesn't seem right, right?
Moreover, brother-in-law is an honest person, it's fine for him to do some simple work. To suddenly have him be the principal of a school ….. I'm afraid that he won't be able to do it. "
"Don't worry. This job isn't as difficult as you think," Joshua replied with a smile.
Yothean replied with a smile, "When we really need to establish this elementary school, we will send out professionals. From the construction of the school to its operation, as well as the most important teaching, brother-in-law doesn't need to personally participate.
In fact, the only reason I chose him to be the dean is because the dean of this academy must be a local. The rest is not important. "
"But I'm worried … I'm worried that my brother-in-law doesn't know anything and will be deceived by the nobles and merchants in town. In the end, the academy won't be able to run well." Winnie was still worried.
"You don't have to worry about that.
Our Frestech Chamber of Commerce being able to choose Arafat Town as the first test of our basic construction plan is Arafat Town's luck.
I believe both Viscount Risus and the Frankish Kingdom's parliament are well aware of this.
Therefore, they will definitely support this matter and ensure that it goes smoothly. You don't have to worry about anyone deceiving Brother-in-law. "
Winnie thought for a while and couldn't help but nod slightly. She felt that what Josian said was very reasonable.
Ever since Arch Mage Levin Hassock died in New Flyer five years ago, New Flyer's position in the Sines had undergone a huge change.
If it was said that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce wanted to cooperate with the various countries of the continent before, in the past five years, all the countries of the continent were trying to outdo each other, trying to find a chance to cooperate with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
Although the Falk Kingdom could be considered a very powerful kingdom, they still welcomed the cooperation opportunities offered by New Flyer.
Although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's infrastructure department represented by Josius couldn't be considered a direct production department of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, because when the Frestech Chamber of Commerce evaluated the magic machine industry of their partners, they considered infrastructure as a very important project. Moreover, the proportion was very high, so there were many countries that placed importance on this.
Now that Josian had come to the Falk Kingdom on behalf of the New Flyer's Infrastructure Promotion Department, hoping to promote the Falk Kingdom's infrastructure, it was equivalent to giving the Falk Kingdom an excellent opportunity.
That was why the Falk Kingdom's royal council attached so much importance to this. They even gave Jothean a document with extremely high authority, allowing him to conduct inspections in the Falk Kingdom as he wished. He could also choose an ideal pilot project to conduct an experiment in infrastructure construction.
The reason why Josian chose Alfate Town as his first step was naturally because of Winnie.
But in fact, Alfate Town's current situation was indeed suitable for a pilot site.
This town already had a road connecting it, and a magic machine factory had been established here for a few years. This allowed the people in the town to have a certain understanding of magic machines and related new things, and there was no need for Josian to popularize it from scratch.
In addition, the existence of that magic machine factory allowed Alfate Town to have a certain economic foundation, and the ability to continue promoting and expanding the infrastructure.
In addition, this town was located near the center of the Falk Kingdom, which made it a very suitable target for a pilot site.
The reason why Josian chose Kompany to be the principal of the academy was because this academy needed a local to be the principal.
Compared to inviting the nobles with a certain reputation in the town to be the principal, Josian trusted Kompany more because he was "one of his own."
Since this academy was the first pilot site, Josian needed the person in charge here to be connected to the town and maintain a smooth relationship with him.
With the combination of these two requirements, Kompany became the most suitable middleman.
Although Kompany was indeed as Winnie had feared, lacking in education and knowledge, and thus lacking in handling many things, Kompany was not a fool. Furthermore, Johanne could tell from Kompany's reaction to Kompany's refusal that he was an extremely principled and clear-headed person. He was very suitable for this job.
As for the operation of the academy, Josian wasn't worried at all.
Because in these two years, the New Flyer's promotion department had been promoting infrastructure in the Principality of Constantine and the Lampari Kingdom, so there were quite a few talents in establishing the academy. Josian had also accumulated a lot of experience, so there wouldn't be any problems at all.
Kompany's role as the principal was more symbolic than practical, so there wasn't much work he needed to do.
Moreover, like this, Kompany's fame in Alfate Town would increase and his income would increase. It could be considered perfectly solving Winnie's request for him to help her big sister's family.
Thinking of this, Josian couldn't help feeling a bit proud.
Solving a problem with both public and private matters, that really was hard to come by.
Josian's group didn't directly leave the Falk Kingdom, rather they drove the Magic Sedan for around three hours before arriving at the Falk Kingdom's capital, Flantis City, that was around two hundred kilometers away from Alfate Town.
Although Alfate Town had been reported to the mayor of Alfate Town, Viscount Resos, they still had to go through the official process. So Josian had to come here to report this to the Falk Kingdom's parliament first.
After receiving the support of the parliament, it would save a lot of time to establish the academy in Alfate Town.
When they were around four to five kilometers away from Flantis City, Josian saw a very familiar tall spire in the sky in front of them.
Just as the spire came into view, a crisp cry suddenly sounded from Johsuan's body.
Hawat, who had fallen asleep on the road, jumped up when he heard the noise. His head hit the roof of the car with a loud bang, causing him to grimace in pain.
"Be careful!"
Winnie glared at him before pulling him back into his seat. Then she spread her hand and took out a small Magic Communicator from Josian's right pocket before pressing the button.
"Hey, Josian, Winnie, you're already here?" There was a clear female voice that came from the Magic Communicator.
"Un, Taylor, we're already here. Where are you now?" Winnie immediately asked back with a smile.
"We're still assembling the fourth magic signal tower. Look to the right, you should be able to see us."
Winnie poked her head out the window and looked to the right of the Magic Sedan. As expected, she could see a thin spire in the distant horizon.
The magic signal towers around Flantis City were the cooperation between the New Flyer and the Falk Kingdom, the first step of building a magic signal communication network in the Falk Kingdom.
If this magic signal tower was finished, the first step of the mission would be complete. The magic signal could cover all of Flantis City as well as a range of eight kilometers outside of Flantis City.
Anyone who entered the range of this magic signal could use the Magic Communicator to communicate without any hindrance.
"Since we can talk, doesn't that mean that the magic signal tower has been built?" Winnie asked the Magic Communicator.
"Un, there's just one last step to check.
Where's Josian? "
"He's driving, what's wrong?"
"Give him the Magic Communicator, I have something to tell him."
Winnie gave an oh sound before giving the Magic Communicator and putting it beside Josian's ear.
"Hey, Taylor, what do you have to tell me?"
"Are you and Winnie going back today or tomorrow?"
"Un ….. I want to go back as soon as possible, but I have to report to the Falk Kingdom's parliament first.
So if nothing unexpected happens, we should be leaving tomorrow.
What? "
"Then ….." Taylor on the other side seemed a bit hesitant. After a pause, he continued, "Is it convenient for you to help me bring someone back?
It's someone who wants to hitch a ride, is that alright? "
Josian slightly knit his brows and turned to look at Winnie. Seeing that she also knit her brows, she made a hand gesture for him to ask again.
"Who?" Josian asked in a knowing voice.
"A magician, he wants to join our company."
"Then why don't you tell him how to take the ride and let him go himself?
Right now it's only two trips from the Drake Duchy and Lampari Kingdom to our company's main base, it's not that troublesome. "
"Hey, Josian, you don't want to bring him?
Just tell me if you don't want to, I'll find someone else. "
"I ….." Josian wanted to say that he didn't want to bring him, but he immediately changed his words.
"I just feel it's very strange. There are so many magicians who come to our company and most of them come by themselves, so why does he want me to bring him?"
"Ke ….. He has a personal relationship with the project manager we're working with here and he's never been out before, so he doesn't know the way, so he asked me to think of a way.
Josian, just treat it as helping me, alright?
I'll treat you and Winnie to dinner when we go back. "
Josian helplessly turned to Winnie. Winnie rolled her eyes and then nodded slightly.
Jonathon heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Winnie's reaction.
"Alright, I'll go to the parliament first, and then I'll go to your engineering department tomorrow. Tell him to wait there."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
