LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

Li Wei bid farewell to Xingid and said hello to the heroic models and representatives from all ethnic groups and all walks of life who were invited to watch the ceremony.

They not only have scientists like Jace, Ike, and Heimerdinger, but also workers from Zaun and Piltover, fishermen from Bilgewater, and people from Demacia and Noxus in Ionia. Farmer, tribal representative of Shurima and the Freljord...

The most special group of people among them should be the business representatives from the Shuangcheng and Piraeus.

Everyone else excitedly waved to the live cameras, eager to remember their glorious moments forever in the images and broadcast them to everyone now and in future generations.

Only the entrepreneurs stood low-key in the center of the crowd, with no intention of showing their faces at all.

"Haha..." Levi smiled knowingly when he saw this.

He knows what these people are worried about.

Now is the world of leaders. The public opinion of the leader is not very friendly to the Ziben family.

People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Smart people like to make a fortune in silence.

Only those who are extremely swollen would like to be in a place where Janna's main trend of thought dominates, show up in the public opinion field every day, and become the godfather of success that people will subconsciously think of when they mention Ziben's family. .

And the presence of Lord Janna in Runeterra is so strong and unshakable.

Therefore, these entrepreneurs behave very low-key.

When they saw Li Wei and his entourage coming over, they just nodded and said hello to him from a distance, unlike the workers who rushed to shake hands with the board of directors and take photos with the camera.

"Hello everyone." Levi took the initiative to greet them and extended his hand to them.

"President Levi." The entrepreneurs reacted instantly and responded enthusiastically.

Walking at the front was Mrs. Gila Mann, the former Supreme Councilor of Piltover and Caitlin's mother.

Among these entrepreneurs, the Gila Mann family holds a transcendent status.

Because they were early funders of the Leaders Association, they made an indelible and huge contribution to the development of the organization. If it weren't for the help of the Gila Mann family, Wind Leader would not have been able to develop so smoothly.

Therefore, the Gila Mann family, which was once the largest plutocrat in Piltover, not only did not fall after the change, but also became old friends of the leader together with the later Myrdalda family, and grew their business bigger and bigger. .

"Mrs. Gila Mann." Levi shook hands with her gently, then looked at the business representatives behind her and said, "And friends from the business world..."

"You don't have to be too restrained."

"We are far from even realizing the primary stage of a Datong society. For a long time to come, we will still need multiple types of ownership to play a joint role in economic construction."

"The business community is also an important force in society, and your voice is also important."

Levi encouraged secretly in a calm tone.

Since they are still engaged in an improved version of the market economy, the opinions and suggestions of entrepreneurs are of course important.

"Haha." Mrs. Gila Mann is also an old friend.

She answered bluntly: "Too many words lead to mistakes, President Levi."

"You don't have to worry about this." Levi said, "You have to trust the leader."

"Believe in your kindness?" Giraman pointed out. The leader's kindness is never reserved for class enemies.

"No, believe in our strength." Levi replied confidently.

Only a weak and powerless newborn needs to use radical means to protect itself. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may be infected by the virus inside and strangled by the powerful enemy outside.

Just like Piltover's political struggles in the past, they only stayed at the top, in the shadows beneath prosperity.

However, the battles between the Zuan people often ended in bloody deaths and rivers of blood.

This is not because the Piltover people are more civilized and polite than the Zaun people, and they are more united with their compatriots, but because the Piltover people set out earlier and are richer and more powerful than the Zaun people.

When the Piltovers killed rivers of blood in overseas colonies and suppressed rebellious slave labor in the mainland, their methods were no less brutal than those in Zaun. It’s just that he became a rich man for hundreds of years and looked more civilized.

"How do the current leaders compare to Pi City?" Levi asked.

"Ten thousand times better." Mrs. Gila Mann sighed.

No matter how their governing line changes in the future, they cannot be subverted, penetrated and corrupted by enemies, or counterattacked.

In this case, they are not afraid of objections, even from the Ziben family.

The original Piltover chaebols were friendly and harmonious on the surface, but privately they always engaged in business assassinations and violent competition with each other.

But the leader has no need for this.

As long as the time comes and society needs change, they will implement the change. Those with vested interests have absolutely no power to oppose them.

In this case, there is no need for them to use such harsh methods to deal with those who oppose them.

"Don't worry about that, Mrs. Gila Mann."

"The goddess Janna gives the leader the confidence to tolerate all things. We can accept all objections generously and listen to the opinions of anyone and any class with an open mind."

After hearing this, Gila Mann nodded secretly: "President Levi, if you say this, everyone will feel relieved."

"It's just..." She still smiled candidly: "A big tree attracts the wind. Those who lead the wind can accommodate others, but the masses may not understand."

"You don't have to worry about this." Levi said confidently: "At least for now, no one will dislike you."

"In fact, everyone still admires you."

This sounds counter-intuitive. How can the common people of Janna Dominate Yi Alliance collectively worship entrepreneurs?

But it is true.

There is no other reason than that the Wind Leader has liberated the productivity of the entire Runeterra and brought the whole world into a stage of rapid economic development.

Just like the business representatives present, there are not only old money and "previous dynasty veterans" like the Gila Mann family among them.

Among them are private arms manufacturers that have only grown up in the past two years due to the massive weapons orders from Leaders;

There are upstream parts suppliers who have taken advantage of the Alchemy automobile industry and made fortunes in one fell swoop;

There are new stars in the catering industry that have grown rapidly in response to the significantly increased food consumption needs of Zauan residents; there are also aquatic product merchants and shipping companies that have risen with the economic development of Piraeus...

Many of these entrepreneurs were ordinary engineers, small businessmen, or even impoverished workers and fishermen three years ago.

Because Runeterra is developing at a rapid pace, countless wealth myths are being created every day.

In most areas of Runeterra, the social structure is relatively backward.

Most people have only experienced the hardships of feudalism in the past and have never received "direct education" from the masters.

In addition, the economy is developing so fast, and everyone around them is getting rich one by one... How can they restrain their yearning for wealth?

"To be honest, most people today still have serious ego-centric and personal-centric emotions."

"We are piloting a fishery cooperative in Piraeus Port, but many people are unwilling to accept it - they all want to work alone and feel that any cooperation or collective will delay their ability to get rich."

Levi told the truth.

Nowadays, many people want to get rich and feel that they are the chosen one.

If you stop him from working alone, he will only think that the leader is mentally ill and is delaying his development and progress.

Of course, this is due to the background of the times. You can’t blame people for being short-sighted.

"So, at least in the next few decades, you entrepreneurs will be the objects of imitation and pursuit." Levi said with a smile: "You can rest assured, Mrs. Gila Mann."

"But..." Levi knew. Mrs. Gilla Mann knew it too.

The market economy has its own shortcomings. No matter how it is improved, it cannot avoid the differentiation of rich and poor and the solidification of classes.

"What about a few decades from now?" she asked.

Nowadays, people yearn for talents and worship entrepreneurs. They feel that it is the leaders who are preventing them from making a fortune.

There was also a strong voice in society against collectivization and public ownership.

From entrepreneurs to petty citizens, and even farmers who have been allocated fields and become small property owners, everyone only verbally supports Janna's advocacy, but avoids it in actual actions.

However, economic development will inevitably hit its peak and stagnate, and the myth of getting rich overnight will always turn into an ironic joke.

Sooner or later people will wake up.

"What about the future?" Mrs. Gilla Mann asked.

The Gila Mann family is one of the largest private financial groups at the moment, second only to the Myrdalda family.

Decades later, her family will still be at the forefront of the storm.

"The future..." Levi's expression changed: "Let's deal with the future in the future. The level of social development and productivity in the future are still unknown. Whatever we say now is empty talk."

"Now I can only guarantee that no matter how we make further changes in the future, you will be able to escape unscathed."

"That's good." After hearing this, Mrs. Gila Mann nodded secretly: "If you say that, I feel relieved."

The business representatives behind her also smiled.

"But -" Li Wei did not forget to emphasize: "The premise of all this is that you can strictly abide by the law and take the responsibility of being the first to get rich."

He put an emphasis on the word "responsibility."

It is foreseeable that for a long time to come, the labor force in Runeterra will be a buyer's market.

Because now there are too many agricultural people in the world, but too few industrial benzene.

So many farmers and herdsmen are eager to work in cities as workers, and they are queuing up to work in factories. But there are only a few factories.

If there are no restrictions, then private entrepreneurs can unscrupulously lower labor prices and suppress employee wages while shouting, "If you don't do it, others will do it."

Therefore, the Leaders Association insists on establishing public-private partnerships for medium and large private enterprises, requiring them to use a fixed proportion of profits to ensure the welfare level of employees.

With many high-paying jobs in state-owned enterprises and these joint ventures entering the labor market, the wages paid to employees by small private enterprises and self-employed enterprises will not be too low.

Entrepreneurs will certainly not be too happy if this is done.

But this is their responsibility.

"Of course! Of course!" Entrepreneurs expressed their opinions one after another: "We firmly support the policies of the leader."

"Without the management of the leader and the support of the public, how could we have done such a smooth business!"

Each and every one of these big-name benzi families showed more gratitude to the leader than a resigned serf.

What they said sounded like they were flattering, but in fact they were completely sincere.

Because: "Although the welfare benefits stipulated in the joint venture will reduce our profits, theoretically it will greatly increase the company's employment costs and reduce the company's competitiveness..."

"But..." Now the leader has the whole world. They have no enemies, no competitors.

Companies around the world all follow the same rules.

Everyone pays wages according to unified standards, so you are not afraid that your friends will reduce costs by lowering wages for employees and compete viciously with you.

And the most important thing is:

"Leaders are truly fair and selfless rulers." An entrepreneur with a background as an engineer said with great gratitude: "Only under the leadership of leaders can there be a truly free market and fair competition."

"Piltover seemed fair in the past, but the big chaebols secretly monopolized every aspect and took all opportunities under their control."

Thinking about what Camille does and who the family spies under her command are used against, you know that the free market in Piltover is by no means as free as it seems.

Lenata's parents just invented a cheap alchemy potion and tampered with the Philos family's cake, so they were set on fire and burned alive.

Unless you are a highly valuable potential stock like Jess, there are basically two attitudes towards latecomers from the Pirate City chaebol:

Forced mergers and acquisitions of your company, while treating you as a dog;

Or directly send family spies to physically eliminate competitors.

Once these two tricks are adopted, it is basically impossible for start-up companies to have the opportunity to grow.

“If I wasn’t a leader, I might never be an entrepreneur in my life.”

"My best result is to rely on my own inventions to become a collaborator of a large chaebol and a minority shareholder of a certain subsidiary."

The former engineer lamented: "How can I make a fortune fairly and equitably based on my own skills like I do now?"

"Yes!" A fishing tycoon from Bilgewater also lamented: "If it weren't for the leader, I would still be working for those pirate gangs in vain."

"The entire Port of Piraeus is in their hands. Those bastards can give me 10% of the profit based on the market price of the precious sea beasts we desperately caught. That would be pretty good,"

“Without the leader, where would I be today?”

"..."

Although the size advantage of large consortia cannot be ignored. But at least under the leadership of the leader, latecomers no longer have to face the kind of vicious competition that goes beyond laws and rules.

As a result, entrepreneurs sincerely expressed their gratitude and support to the leaders.

They also sincerely stated that they would abide by laws and regulations, support joint ventures, and cooperate with leaders to protect the treatment of employees.

"That's good..." Levi nodded secretly.

Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene became lively and the representatives of the business community also joined in the atmosphere of celebrating the new era, he said no more.

He said goodbye to Mrs. Gila Mann and others, and continued walking towards the high platform.

Passing through the invited models and representatives from all walks of life, ahead are leaders from each participating country.

They are Lux, the president of the Demacia branch, and Prince Jarvan, the vice president;

Swain, the president of the Noxus Chapter, and Darius, the vice president;

Riven, the Ionian Chapter’s president, and Irelia, the vice-president;

Freljord Chapter's Guild Udyr, Vice Guild Ashe;

Montero, the president of the Shadow Island Chapter, and Sean, the vice president;

Erwin, president of the Tri-Cities Chapter, and Sarah, vice president.

(Bilgewater was too small in population, too small, and too close to Zaun and Piltover, so after the alliance was established, it merged with the Zaun and Piltover branches to form the Tri-Cities branch.)

In addition, the Shurima Emperor Azir and Archmaester Nasus were also present as the heads of the "Observing Member States".

As a "friendly country" with newly established diplomatic relations, Ixtal sent Qiyana as an envoy to watch the ceremony.

It's just that...Qiyana at this time completely lost the rebelliousness of the previous little princess. She carefully huddled next to Azir, like a well-trained maid.

"President Levi, Vice President Victor!" Seeing Li Wei and others arriving, everyone rushed to greet them.

Levi also shook hands with them one by one and welcomed their visit.

To be honest, when Irelia stood with Swain, Darius, and Prince Jarvan, the atmosphere was always a bit awkward.

But now that everyone can stand together in peace and friendship, it is already an incredible progress.

"Let's work hard together!"

"Well!" Their hands and Levi's hands were held tightly together.

Later, Levi, Victor, Mel and other central council members, together with Riven, Lux, Swain and other leaders of the participating countries, climbed the steps of the observation deck.

"Levi!" Seraphine hurried down the steps and reached out to him excitedly.

She is the host of this celebration and has been waiting on the rostrum early in the morning.

"Come up quickly! Everyone is waiting for you!"

"Yes." Levi smiled and took the hand offered by Seraphine.

His lover, who was also his comrade, couldn't wait to lead him up the steps.

He is about to stand under the spotlight and accept this highest honor - as the leader of the world's leaders, celebrating this event of change with all mankind.

A new chapter in the era is about to begin.

"Wait..." Suddenly, Levi thought of something.

He stopped.

"What's wrong?" Seraphine looked back at him in confusion.

Mel, Victor, Swain and others also looked curiously.

"How long until the celebration starts?" Levi asked.

"It's still early." Seraphine said, "There's still another hour."

"An hour..." Levi thought thoughtfully.

Finally, he waved his hand to summon a wisp of breeze and slowly flew up: "Then you go up first, I will come back later."

"Huh?" Everyone was surprised: "You want to leave? Now?"

"Yes." Levi replied seriously: "Before the celebration begins, I still want to go somewhere. I also want to..."

"In memory of a friend."

After that, he turned around and flew into the sky.

Seraphine, Victor and others looked at each other. None of them knew which friend Li Wei was going to pay homage to, and why he had to do it at such a significant time.

No one knows, except Janna.

"Do you want to go..." she asked, "do you want to pay homage to that person?"

"Yeah." Levi nodded solemnly.

It's important to have someone. Although he had died long ago, his soul had already been fused by Li Wei.

Levi had never seen him or spoken to him.

But he was important to Levi.

"Janna, you know."

"When I came to this world, I actually faced two choices."

"I can hold up the torch of ideals and bring the wind of change to the world;"

"I can also steal the power of the goddess, use the name of Janna to confuse people's hearts, seize unlimited power and wealth for myself, and make everyone my slaves."

Which of these two paths would the average person choose?

What would Levi choose?

Li Wei knew that if the ordinary citizen in his previous life were asked to choose, he would probably choose the second option.

Even if he was an expert on Janna theory and a person with ideals in his previous life.

But he is just like the snack bar owner in the past, he is just a "leading enthusiast" who has never been truly tested.

Is it the ideal choice?

Or choose wealth and power, choose Ahri, Kai'Sa, Ashe, Sarah, Riven, Vayne, Akali, Lux, Jinx, Yin Fulin, Syndra... choose this option to get all the good things. The tyrannical path of seizing everyone for himself and enslaving everyone to himself?

99% of leading enthusiasts will choose the latter.

Levi doesn't think he's an exception.

But, there was one person who changed him.

He had that person's memory, a nightmare memory.

That memory is full of pain and torture, full of suffocating despair that a modern person cannot imagine.

He finally "transformed" from a decent middle-class citizen into the most miserable laborer.

He should do something.

He had to do something.

He wants to overturn this cannibalistic old society, and he wants to create a bright future!

At this moment, Levi became a true leader.

And the person who led him on this path and brought changes to Runeterra was:

"My friend, Mr. Levi."
