Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

In Roland's memory, it seems that there are not many dinners with Li Lin alone. . 23uS.

Li Lin is busy with work on one hand, and on the other hand, without Brun Hill, the family atmosphere will be greatly diluted, and it will become a place like a work dinner.

It's not that Li Lin has strict requirements for meals, no speech, no sound when drinking soup. It's just...Looking at Li Lin while reading the document while eating, Roland felt that the distance between them was very far away.

This is almost normal, and Roland has been used to this kind of thing since a long time ago. So when Li Lin saw nothing but tableware and dishes in front of him, and he did not put a piece of document paper, he actually had such a little discomfort, as if he saw something very awkward.

"What's wrong? Don't get used to candlelight dinner? Or is the dish wrong?"

Li Lin put on a napkin and asked casually.

The rejuvenated Roland shook his head, and the first-class Charlemagne was on the table, which seemed very appetizing, and the most discerning foodies would also put down the shelves to enjoy. For Roland, who has only minimal food requirements, there is no appetite problem.

"It's just strange that you have a serious meal."

Unabashedly, Roland straightened out his feelings.

"A little scared."

"Then you need to get used to this new situation, oh yes, with Minerva."

It's easy and happy, just like the father who is happy that the child has finally established a family, it is difficult to imagine the countless political calculations behind the warm tone.

When he learned that Li Lin had placed Minerva in Yalfheim, Roland almost thought it was the rhythm of preparing to kill. After talking with Li Lin once, he felt relieved.

From the beginning, Li Lin had no intention of getting rid of Minerva. On the contrary, he felt that this was an opportunity.

This is not to say that he had the idea of ​​supporting Minerva to act as a puppet. History has proven countless times that supporting a puppet regime is often a thankless thing: difficult to reconcile conflicts of interests, puppet government pig teammates who can be used as brain disability specimens , The endless policing wars like the muddy pit... as strong as the rice emperor will be tossed by the "establishing a new order of cooking and cooking", and the elves who are not as solid as the rice emperor at home have no spare money for the headmaster and Wang. The traitors are defeated.

Li Lin did not even plan to occupy the entire territory of Charlemagne, and the puppet government could not even talk about it.

He saw it clearly. Don’t look at Charlemagne’s enemies on all sides now. The big guys would like to dig together to bury the goods. But if Alfheim occupies the entire Charlemagne. The strategic environment to be faced is definitely not after the surrender of France in 1940. The strategy of the third empire's strategy of seeking solitary defeat was that in 1895, the chicken was swallowed up by the Korean sticks, and the passive situation of "intervention by the Three Kingdoms" was ushered in after the Qing Dynasty.

After the Meiji Restoration in Japan, it was determined to take the route of "leaving Asia and entering Europe". The whole country studies the West. But the self-proclaimed civilized ghosts did not take this group of turnips as a human being. Struggling to death is regarded as a yellow-haired monkey who learns words from people, passes on clothes, and imitates human etiquette. Based on this sense of superiority and practical benefits. They allowed the monkeys to fight for the status of the boss of the monkey mountain, and they got happiness from the "stubborn yellow monkey" being beaten by the "starting to imitate the yellow monkey" to the full bag of embarrassment. But if a monkey tries to eat the monkey king in the past, let him evolve into a king. When sitting on par with humans, the great powers are no longer spectators. They will tune up the monkey who does not understand the rules.

The Japanese committed this taboo. After the Qing dynasty, these hot-headed guys wanted to swallow the entire northeast in one go. Three rogues from Germany, Russia, and France immediately fired their warships and unloaded their cannons. Well-dressed diplomats told Ito Hirofumi: If you don't withdraw your troops, just wait for the chrysanthemum. At that time, the Japanese had not been taken up by the "Dama Soul", and the Japanese with weak national power had no choice but to be forced to spit out the Liaodong Peninsula, which almost ate the entrance, and left it to the Tsarist Russia who had already met here. As for the three gangsters who extorted various benefits from the Qing dynasty in the name of "returning to Liaogonggong", that is yet another story.

Yalfheim is much stronger than Japan in 1895 in military, economic, political, diplomatic and other fields. However, if the defense army sends troops to occupy the entire territory of Charlemagne, it may be difficult to escape hostility and even take military action by neighboring countries. The fate of warning. At that time, I'm afraid that Alfheim will not get the turnaround like the "Britain-Japan Alliance" like Japan to get rid of the "tragic isolation" dilemma.

Rather than spit out the battle results in a passive and humiliating manner in the future, it embarrassed me, and gave the domestic patriotic youths the opportunity to use grief to promote "Ghost Albion", it is better to plan ahead and leave room for ourselves and Charlemagne.

In other words, Li Lin can tolerate the continued existence of Charlemagne, but only if this Charlemagne is weak and maintains a certain degree of neutrality to Alfheim.

To achieve this seemingly difficult task, we must start with Minerva.

As I said before, Li Lin did not intend and did not expect Minerva to become a symbolic head of a puppet government. His abacus is to make Prince Shire the next King of Charlemagne, and Minerva has real power as a regent, thus ensuring that even if the new Charlemagne is not friendly to Yalfheim, he will not dare to join the anti-Yar easily. Among the alliances of Werheim.

The political pattern of "deep-curtain listening to politics" has appeared in the history of Charlemagne. The Medici queen mother who ignited the massacre of St. Bartholomew is an example. Therefore, the appearance of a princess regent is also easily accepted by Charlemagne. How to say this is also more affinity than a "Lady Empress Dowager". As for the other two heirs to the throne, it is natural to go where they should go.

This is good for everyone. Charlemagne continues to exist, the royal family is still the royal family, the elves have gained independence, and other countries will not send troops to interfere, and the international situation has returned to stability. Almost everyone got what they wanted. The rest is to ensure that Minerva, as the national regent, will not declare war with the world like the Cixi Lafayette, or learn from the South Korean concubine Min who was pursued as the "Queen of Mingcheng", and introduce foreign forces against the new sovereign country, It was also necessary for Yalfheim to study Japanese. Let an ambassador rush into the palace with a group of rogues and show the military-like fighting power... as long as everything goes well, basically decades of peace can be said to be preserved.

So, will Minerva obediently obey? Before visiting Yalfheim, most of them will categorically refuse, but not necessarily after the visit.

"Your Highness is still satisfied with the tour schedule?"

Li Lin split the lobster on the plate, his face casual.

Looking back at the trip, Roland's expression was no longer so serious.

"I feel pretty good, but I don't seem to be very satisfied with the art museum."

That's a really interesting situation.

It has been overwhelmed by the various tallness of Alfheim. Even if I want to pick bones in the egg, I can't find a suitable entry point. After being depressed for several days in a row. Minerva finally found that he could regain confidence. Let humans overwhelm the existence of the elf.

That is-art! !

Compared with the colorful neoclassical sculptures and paintings of human society, the culture and art of elves have always maintained a serious classical style, or old-style orthodox style, in addition to a little upstart-style exaggeration and amazing scale . just now. These large and improper works won the unreserved ridicule of Queen Charlemagne.

"What? Professor Tolk can't receive visitors today? Oh. Of course. He is working in the left ear of the horse."

Heidrich, who had always been serious, had to turn his face back, making a muffled noise of "Poo, Poo," Roland covered his mouth. Try not to make a sound, the staff on the side looks solemn and sacred, but judging from their blushing faces, they actually want to laugh.

"The speech of the consul", "The return of the farm girl to the field", "The high-speed railway is open to traffic"...

All are similar to the statues of ancient Greece and Rome, or highlight the wise and great works of the government and the consul. I watched all these things that emphasized the "orthodox", "correct", "giant" and other elements, but lacked the beauty of elasticity, patience No matter how good it is, you will get bored. Compared with the same huge sculptures and oil paintings, perhaps the children's hand-drawn graffiti makes people feel the beauty even more.

The only thing that can enter the eyes of Minerva is the doujinshi conference in front of the Civic Activity Center opposite the Art Museum. Looking at Minerva, which is lingering among the blind and wounded, Roland only knows Chilling straight from the back...

Having said that, she was so happy because of the judgment of the people's court.

The People's Court made a final judgment in the Scott case, ruling that the subway operation department and the police station had excessively enforced the law, and Mr. Scott obtained the victory and compensation for the lawsuit. Surprisingly, the subway operation department also breathed a sigh of relief with this decision, expressing its willingness to remove the "human only" sign.

"It's easy to understand."

Slowly tasting red wine, Li Lin explained:

"Apartheid has led to increased operating costs and potential troubles for transportation, and it is also detrimental to the strategy of ensuring that human workers voluntarily keep wages lower than elf workers."

"Voluntarily keep low wages?"

The knife and fork in Roland's hand stopped, his face unbelievable.

Every capitalist likes cheap labor, and employees who voluntarily keep low wages are what they dream of. But in reality, such a fool is impossible. No one will expect a better life, and no one will not expect more salary.

Voluntarily keep low wages? This is a joke.

But Li Lin did not mean to joke.

"Indeed, human workers also hope to get more salaries, but they are also willing to maintain low wages. After all, salaries are earned, and it only makes sense to enjoy them alive."

"what?"

"The current situation is that elf workers are highly vigilant and hostile to human workers entering their own workplaces."

Just as white workers in the United States determined that Chinese workers took away their jobs, it was the reason for their poverty. Elf workers also have a similar mentality. Fortunately, the unemployment rate of the elves is almost zero, and the security management has been very strict. They are still far less violent than the gods who believe in God-beating or even burning workers of different races alive.

"Human workers have low salaries and are engaged in dangerous and hard work, so elf workers only use them as fools. By virtue of salary and status superiority, ordinary elves can also tolerate humans walking around. Once this If the bottom line no longer exists, do you think there will be a call to treat humanity?"

Roland opened his mouth and failed to speak out the rebuttal.

Say powerless to refute. It seems more appropriate.

If this is really the case, I am afraid that the streets are full of members of right-wing violent organizations wearing white robes and peaked caps. They attacked human workers everywhere and carried out violent persecution. The police will turn a blind eye to this, and the military will do the same. Public opinion will stir up trouble and fuel the fire.

The conclusion is clear. Before public opinion and people's mentality change, it is a reasonable judgment to keep human beings at a lower income and standard of living. However, it is also a difficult problem to let humans default this state for a long time. Only the whip can only teach bad tempers. Not to mention people. and so. In addition to the whip, carrots are also needed.

The cancellation of the "human only" brand of some public facilities is the carrot that hangs in front of humans-not too big or small, and occasionally makes humans bite. It won't make the elves unacceptable carrots.

"It sounds like it is fuelling the difference. In fact, it is to balance the mentality of both sides. You know. Many citizens don't say anything, but they are not satisfied with this sentence. But my prestige can still be suppressed. At the scene, giving humanity a little benefit does not harm their interests. So they will not say anything more. If you want to go further and achieve racial equality, then Alfheim will fall into turmoil and racial vendetta Will ruin everything."

Roland nodded silently, he had no doubt about it.

In addition to these superficial reasons, there is a layer of thought that cannot be said. At present, many low-level human workers do not get decent wages at all, but also engage in almost forced labor. These disgruntled workers or passive slackers, or try to escape, or even plan riots. Under the strong suppression of the relevant departments, no major disturbances have finally occurred, but all kinds of unrest have begun to affect the military production. If this continues, it will even affect the war next year.

Roland was unclear about the war, but he judged from the signs of Yalfheim that under the influence of various objective factors, the elves would make some compromises to the human beings under control only sooner or later. Now it is precisely through the Scott case that the gesture is made, and then pay a symbolic overtime wage to the active human workers, the humans will be grateful to Dade, and the overall emotions will be eased. They have the enthusiasm for production, military production can also be guaranteed, and preparations can be carried out smoothly. It is even simpler for some government employees to worry that human workers will get too much for this reason. Right-wingers are worried about doing nothing.

(This is probably the so-called gap in temperament.)

The teenager sighed in his heart.

Judging from the usual moral standards, Li Lin's actions are by no means upright, but they are definitely the most acceptable arrangements for all parties. From this point, he can undoubtedly be among the greatest mediators.

In contrast, your own thoughts on this matter are limited to the incident itself, and stop at the level of racial conflict. Compared with the two, the judgement is high.

"You are too young to think about problems and it's easy to get horny. In fact, just think of it as your girlfriends. Just balance the forces like the harem."

puff--

The mouthful of red wine spewed out, and Roland coughed violently.

The span of this topic conversion is too big!

"In the afternoon, Brenhill called, and when I talked to you, she was asking, "When will the round house, "Hurry up, hurry up," "If it doesn't work, please help, etc., in the face of this persistent passion, Don’t you feel obliged to respond? Even if you can’t go to the palace before the big wedding, there are other girls around you. You’re not a chaste woman. It doesn’t make sense to keep anything for the first time.”

The tone of official business makes people cry and laugh, even if his logic and conclusion are still correct, but a serious discussion of this kind of thing at the dinner table really makes people cry.

Stared by the pair of bright red pupils~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Roland subconsciously pressed the position of his stomach, and he looked bitter.

"Only this will spare me..."

"Dragging water is not a man's style. Even in the face of a hatchet, it must be brave to push the other party to make it pregnant."

"That's called death..."

"As long as there is love, true love can overcome all difficulties, but it's just a few girls, no problem."

"This is obviously a scumbag line."

"In short -"

Wiping off the corners of the mouth and throwing napkins on the plate, Li Lin said leisurely:

"Your Highness has seen almost the same here, and it is time for you to return to Rudes with your Highness."

That was not a tone of negotiation, but an unmistakable order, which should not be rejected or questioned. (To be continued...)
