He will arrange for batches of two hundred townsmen to come to the school and teach them literacy.
Lynn even directly told these scholars openly.
Townsmen only need literacy and writing skills, not any profound theoretical knowledge.
At most, after learning to read and write, some townsmen will receive skills training if needed.
Achieving this is completely sufficient.
Instructions completed.
Lynn's gaze turned to Erin Mills, and he spoke.
"Lady Aileen, would you accompany me for a walk?"
A few people turned their gaze at Lynn's words, focusing on the young Erin.
Facing their gaze, Erin did not shy away.
Her face bore confidence and a composed expression.
Erin responded, "Of course, Lord."
Under the gazes of Tate and several others bidding farewell, and with Red following along with four guards.
Lynn and Erin walked through the town.
As he walked, Lynn's gaze was scrutinizing the town.
After walking a few dozen meters, he spoke, "Lady Aileen, from what I heard from Tate, you are researching Church Law?"
Erin, quietly following by, was a bit surprised and looked up at Lynn.
She made no concealment and said, "Yes, Lord."
"Besides researching Church Law, I've also touched upon Commercial Law, Urban Law, Public and Private Law, and Feudal Law, among others..."
"Lord, let me briefly introduce them to you."
Lynn nodded slightly.
With Lynn's nod of approval, Erin's interest was immediately piqued.
As a law scholar, she naturally hoped to gain recognition from others.
Especially after hearing from Tate about Lynn's sole effort in developing this land from a few people to nearly ten thousand now.
This is not something that can be achieved simply by relying on a lord's ability and authority.
It involves various management and leadership skills!
Erin continued talking: "Like Church Law, it plays a role in maintaining social order, protecting vulnerable groups, and even has moral education functions."
"But more importantly, it is a tool for theocratic governance of the world!"
"Its existence, in implementation, involves various conflicts with the laws and power of secular authorities!"
"For example, the Church attempts to expand its sphere of influence and jurisdiction through Church Law; for example, competing with secular authorities for control of land, property, and labor."
"Moreover, Church Law lacks rationality and scientific spirit."
"More crucially, it restricts individual freedom."
"Whether it's attire, food, living quarters, or recreational activities, all are strictly regulated by Church Law!"
"It fundamentally hinders personal and national development!"
After finishing her speech, Erin looked at Lynn.
She found Lynn still walking without interrupting her at all.
Erin raised her eyebrows slightly.
She already understood that Master Lynn was testing her abilities!
Erin continued without hesitation: "Then there is Urban Law, its advantages are clear too."
"It can promote urban development and provide strong legal protection for economic and cultural progress in cities,"
"While also safeguarding the rights of citizens, such as personal freedom rights, property rights, etc."
"Similarly, the drawbacks are equally obvious."
"The geographical limitation is too significant, Urban Law is restricted to specific urban areas."
"For example, within the same lord's or the Emperor's Empire."
"The existence of different Urban Laws in different territories or empires can impede regional economic development and social interaction!"
"It simply cannot realize a unified market and legal order!"
Erin tentatively spoke: "More importantly, the conflict between Urban Law and Feudal Law!"
"Urban Law, advocating for freedom, equality, and autonomy principles, conflicts with the hierarchy and power upheld by Feudal Law!"
Afterward, Erin roughly narrated other aspects like Commercial Law, Public and Private Law, etc.
Lynn responded and interrupted Erin's speech.
"Lady Aileen's research on law indeed displays profound insight."
Erin revealed a smile.
Although she had just briefly discussed it, it also included aspects of the Feudal Law used by Lynn in governing the current territory!
But Lynn never interrupted her and quietly listened, awaiting her lecture to end.
She had never met a lord with such calm and composed demeanor before.
Lynn continued: "Lady Aileen, I won't waste words."
"In this territory, there has never been any existence of law."
"I need you to combine your research from various laws and regulations with the lifestyle and work habits of this land and create a suitable Territorial Law for this area!"
"It should both guarantee their rights and, when they breach obligations, have corresponding laws and regulations to punish their actions!"
"Simply put, as long as they perform their daily work, they will always have their rights."
Erin froze for an instant.
This territory never had law?
Moreover, townsmen just need to labor to have rights?
Then how did Master Lynn govern nearly ten thousand townsmen?
Dictatorship by sword?
In the next moment, Erin dismissed this idea from her mind.
If it were mere dictatorship, the townsmen could not possibly have such a relaxed and pleasant life.
