I'm the King Of Technology

"Your highnesses, they're here!"

"Good!"

With that, William left Oden in the office and followed the guard out.

They walked out of the building, got on their horses and headed towards another building a little further away.

The palace estate was just too large... as one could make multiple golf fields on it.

William and a few of his men rode their horses toward one of the most heavily guarded buildings on the estate.

'Gallop! Gallop! Gallop!'

They rode in silence towards the building while receiving the many bows and saluted from the workers around.

And soon, they came across a three-story building that looked like one of Zeus' temples in ancient Greek mythology.

The entrance had several tall pillars supporting it, which gave it a sort of Roman vibe.

The pillars were so large and tall, making all those who stood beside it swam very tiny.

Again, there were not more than a thousand guards in and out of the building during a single shift.

So the place was heavily guarded to a fault.

William climbed the many steps and ascended into the building with his guards.

They walked in, bypassed all the guards and soon found themselves in one of the inner halls on the ground floor.

This was the floor that had most of the security personnel on it.

While the second and third floors were solely meant to store the royal treasures.

.

"We greet his highness!" The guards spoke in unison.

William nodded at them before turning towards another massive group of learned men who used to be slaves that worked under their masters to check the household books.

"You all have been hired to do a very important task starting from today.

You have all been briefed on the rules, as well as the consequences for disobeying those rules.

Greed and selfishness will only lead to their downfall.

So do your best."

"Yes, your highness!" The group of excited peasants.

The pay was very high when compared to Arcadina's standard minimum wages.

So how could they not be happy?

They went over the rules in their minds and promised to follow them strictly, or else the penalty for theft will be too gruesome for them to handle.

And what were they hired for?

Of course, it was to count all the piles and heaps of coins within the treasury.

William looked at their enthusiastic expressions and nodded in satisfaction.

One should know that after he went to Baymard, he was very impressed by how organized they were.

And after personally asking Landon for some tips, he had quickly sorted out his plans from there.

Arcadina's current state was just too messy!

.

When looking at the treasury, even though all treasures and wealth that were deposited here were recorded, they were never checked throughout these years.

So even if someone had stolen a diamond necklace, a few coins or something valuable, no one would really notice after so many years.

Provided Alec still saw the heap and piles of wealth, he wouldn't know if someone stole a handful of gold coins or not.

Without a doubt, the treasury was just too large.

One could even imagine the treasure room within the hit movie 'The Mummy'.

The ancient people all piled everything there in one massive hall.

And sometimes, these halls had other hidden inner chambers as well.

That was the case here too.

One could only get to the third floor by passing through the inner chamber within the treasure room on the second floor.

Obviously, the third floor was the most sacred region since it had the rarest gems and stones in them too.

The floor also had some hidden documented secrets that should never be let out to the public as well.

These secrets have been kept in trunks and kept within hidden trap doors in the massive hall.

And even the current rulers didn't know the exact location on the floor where those documents from hundreds and thousands of years had been stored.

They just knew about the taboos or secrets of their parents, who kept passing it along to the next generation all these years.

For sure, as time went by, some of the secrets had been lost with time.

Who knows if there was a hidden backup cave around Arcadina that had more royal treasure?

More than that, some of those documents might only leave clues for the current rulers to be able to find whatever was hidden around Arcadina.

The possibilities were endless.

Anyway, the treasury kept their wealth and every other secret that they felt was worth keeping.

.

As for the tricks that William had learned from Baymard, he immediately began putting everything into perspective once he arrived.

Firstly, he wanted the so-called locker room system here too.

As well as the uniform system too.

So he quickly cleared out one of the rooms on the ground floor as their locker room.

For now, they only found men employees.

But soon he was sure that females would also be employed as well.

And by then, the female locker rooms would be ready too.

He made several wooden cabinets and bought several Baymardian padlocks as well.

Once the workers got in, they were to record everything that they went into the locker room with.

That way if someone broke their wooden lockers and stole something, then they could at least be sure that the stolen item really existed.

And once they recorded all their belongings, they were to change into their pocketless uniforms, lock their lockers, give the key to the guard in charge of collecting these keys and head out towards the treasury.

Once they got there, they would still be searched before getting in.

Likewise, they would only be searched before leaving the treasury.

Their breasts, mouths, hairs, armpits, bellybuttons and even their buttcheeks would be checked if need be.

No one was to steal a single coin!

.

That said, William honestly admired the Baymard's system of counting all the goods, separating them and placing ten into different storage bags or units.

And more importantly, each bag had an amount written on it which made it easier for anyone who wanted to pick it up later on.

It was inadvisable to leave all these piles of coins unaccounted for like that.

William hung around for a bit before getting on his horse and heading towards another building that held Arcadina's national treasury.

Sigh... he had now turned into an extremely busy man.

And while he went on with his life a little more worried free, far away from Arcadina's soil... some people were not so carefree as he was.

Trouble was just a moment away for some.
