Heru Cokro's First Visit to Batih Ageng
Witana Sideng Rana was amazed, “Paduka had thought of everything. I will negotiate with the mountain barbarian tribe based on the condition of Sire.”
“Yes, you can focus your energy to make sure one tribe agrees. It is better if you choose the one that has the hardest time surviving. As long as one agrees, the rest will follow. When they see a change in his living conditions, even if anyone disagrees, they will not be able to stop the majority vote.”
"Understood!"
“For the cooperation of herbs mentioned by Witana Sideng Rana, there must be a need. Although the region has a medicinal garden, it is still in its infancy, many plants cannot be grown there and can only be found deep in the mountains. In this aspect, the barbarians could be said to be experts. As the region expanded, the need for herbs and medicines would also increase. So, the initial planning must be done well, so that the foundation is solid.” Heru Cokro did not want Witana Sideng Rana to be too affected and validate the results of his negotiations.
"Yes!"
“If for labor services we should take it out of the mountain, this is also our final destination. However, in this process, why don't we motivate and attract the youth to be bold and take steps. Regardless of the construction or workshop, they can find a job with a good salary and let them feed their families. The youths have more drive and are more adaptive, at the same time they can slowly change the view of the barbaric mountain tribe.”
Heru Cokro's view not only surprised Witana Sideng Rana, even Kawis Guwa and Siti Fatimah were also amazed. This type of labor movement method that only appeared about 100 years ago is something that is never thought of in the minds of old people.
“Paduka is a genius, we are so amazed!" Heru Cokro waved his hand and laughed.
After the Material Reserve Bureau did their report, Siti Fatimah stood up.
"Sister, the Financial Bureau's monetary control problem that you raised before you left, the bureau has a solution" Ying Yu said.
"Please say!"
“Financial Bureau feels the need to establish Audit Division. Its role is responsible for calculating the legality, efficiency, and income reality of the region, increasing the efficiency of money use, stimulating growth, and ensuring the region's economy grows healthily Siti Fatimah continued.
Heru Cokro frowned and said, “I agree with the new division. But the division's role is income and financial expenditure. Putting it under the Financial Bureau, doesn't that mean you're monitoring yourself?
"Then, the big brother's intention is?"
“The Audit Division must work independently to maintain its purity and integrity.”
Fatimah nodded her head and said, "Understood!"
"As for the director, does the Financial Bureau have a suitable choice?"
“Perhaps the most suitable and competent is Nyai Ageng Pinatih, but he has been very busy helping Pantura.” affairs She said.
“Nyai Ageng Pinatih, on the recommendation of Fatimah, I will appoint you as Director of the Audit Division. I hope you are pleased with this additional task.” Heru Cokro said solemnly.
“Thank you for your trust, I will not disappoint you.” Nyai Ageng Pinatih also said solemnly.
After dealing with the Audit Division, the time has shown at 11:30 and Heru Cokro ended the meeting. As for the Military Affairs Bureau, he prepared for a military affairs meeting later.
At 2 pm, Heru Cokro did not stay in the ruling residence but instead traveled to Batih Ageng accompanied by the Director of Military Affairs.
The boats that fishermen use are now sophisticated, similar to umbrella boats. Sitting on it and looking at the clear surface of the water, Heru Cokro felt extremely blessed. At first, he brought General Giri and built the Javanese village of Dwipa. Back then, the village was tattered with no talent at all.
In less than 5 months, the small settlement that has nothing to do with it has become Java Dwipa, with nearly 30,000 inhabitants and spanning an area of 1,000 square kilometers, become an unshakable leader on Indonesian servers. But to grow bigger and become a king in the future, one cannot remain silent or he will be left behind by time, the achievements of the current Jawa Dwipa are only small and meaningless.
At the port of Batih Ageng, Zudan Arif and the major Wirama cavalry unit had brought in a group of government officials, and were waiting to greet Heru Cokro. This was his first time coming to Batih Ageng. Of course, they won't be too relaxed.
When the umbrella boat docked, Zudan Arif and his group warmly welcomed, "Your Majesty, welcome to Batih Ageng."
Heru Cokro stepped ashore, and after waving to Grandpa Zi, he turned around and said to Zudan Arif, “This is just a simple visit. Why do you have to bring so many people?”
Zudan Arif was astonished, He had no idea that Heru Cokro did not like such an atmosphere, he just wanted to make this welcome warm.
Heru Cokro did not want to make it too embarrassing for Zudan Arif, and under Wirama's introduction, he greeted everyone one by one.
The organizational structure of Batih Ageng is similar to that of the main region, but it also has differences. Of the 4 main Bureaus, they do not have a Military Affairs Bureau. The affiliate area will not be a normal organization. Thus Batih Ageng only had a secondary division like the War Preparation Division. The other special divisions were only owned by the main camp.
The placement of government officials in Batih Ageng was also clearly incomparable to the main camp. However, among the basic government employees, they were considered one of the best. Otherwise, they would not have the opportunity to be posted here. Heru Cokro only hoped that this group of people could grow quickly.
As for the military, they were all familiar faces. The 5 captains in the unit, including the leader of the Humam region protection squad, were all personally assigned by him.
After a simple tour of the harbor, they returned to the hamlet. From a distance, one could see the high territorial walls and the majestic southern gate.
Fortunately Zudan Arif knows his limits and does not arrange for civilians to welcome him. Walking to the hamlet, Zudan Arif began to brief and introduce Heru Cokro over the situation in Batih Ageng.
Batih Ageng has about 2600 people, and only a week from the upgrade to the base village. Certainly, cavalry units placed outside the hamlet are not included in the figure.
To defend against nomadic tribes, agricultural businesses mostly faced south and beside the Kebonagung and Batih Ageng rivers. Other important industries that had to be built outside the hamlet such as brick kilns and pottery mills were built in the west and east.
Because it is located in the plains area, Batih Ageng lacks wood and stone. It basically relied on the main region and Kebonagung for those resources. The coordinator is, of course, the Material Reserve Bureau.
Of course, Batih Ageng was not without his strength. Even without saying anything about the livestock industry or the agricultural industry, he had his own strategic strength.
