Chapter 1,064: The Plan of the Emperor and His Ministers

At the prompt of his old brother, Emperor Armin Kazalnia recalled the taboo about the magician. Even if he was the emperor of an empire, he would not think of challenging this secular convention. After all, judging from the dominance currently displayed by the Tower of the Great Sage, it is unsolvable for anyone and any force.

Suppose the magician is allowed to have a magic tower again, and in the end he is allowed to go against the empire. Even if we use all the strength of the empire to win, we will definitely have to pay a heavy price. And does what is exchanged for such a price have corresponding value?

Even if the opponent has no evil intentions, judging from the performance of the magic tower, who would dare to disobey him within the range of his attack? The strongest building in the world, the Magic Tower, was demolished as quickly as possible, and it was done effortlessly. Under such a premise, as long as there is such a magic tower, it means that he can actually dominate the area covered by the attack.

To put it simply, as long as you are not stupid and don't act out of impulse, you will know how to make a choice when facing the magician and getting a magic tower in exchange. Being an emperor is no exception. The subsequent actions of the Magicians Association clearly represent the attitude of the magicians.

Someone had readily handed over the knowledge about the construction of the Tower of the Great Sage. Originally it was only listed as public relevant knowledge, but now it is listed as a forbidden curse level. Those who don’t want to use it need to be reviewed for qualifications, and if they want to use it, they have to pass a subsequent review.

Most of those magicians who had acquired relevant knowledge before being classified as forbidden spells were still the masters of magic towers. After all, none of these people dare to change their magic tower to look like the Tower of the Great Sage.

The main reason is that they still don't understand what the transformation of the tower means and how many functions it has. Everyone is worried that if their magic tower is changed to be like the Tower of the Great Sage, there will be a backup force left by the magician, and they will eventually lose control of the magic tower.

The Magician Association has such a backup plan for every magic tower. This is something that every magician knows. So whether the magician has made similar preparations, no one dares to say for sure. Even if that person admits that he doesn’t, who dares to believe it easily? So despite the fact that the current tower owner of the Tower of the Great Sage is quite prosperous, the risks here are not small.

However, these people's concerns are justified, because someone did leave some backdoors in the design of the Tower of the Great Sage. In other words, those are not backdoors at all, but normal control methods, but there is no targeted blockade, and someone does not tell others.

As long as Lin is willing, he can do anything in the Holy City and remotely control the Tower of the Great Sage thousands of miles away. It can also be said that as long as he wants, he can take back the Tower of the Great Sage at any time and become a tower owner again. But doing so has no basis in the legal principles of Lost Land, and no one will admit that he is the owner of the Tower of the Great Sage.

Perhaps due to the intimidation of the Magic Tower, no one would raise any objections. But a magic tower alone cannot survive, at least the tower itself will not produce food. If you want to open up wasteland outside the tower, it is not practical to grow your own food. If you want to find someone willing to trade with you or do things for you, you have to pay more chips. And these are the costs of losing legal basis.

Maybe by forming a force yourself and embarking on the path of fighting for hegemony, you can ignore the previous secular legal principles and formulate the rules you want. But...striving for hegemony is not about treating guests to dinner, at least there is no way to live as carefree as now, so someone has never considered such trouble.

To do things, it is easiest to go with the flow. Even if he wants to change the world's situation against the will of heaven, Lin will choose an approach that can set off a general trend and use his strength to build momentum, just like the revolution he promoted in the earth elemental plane.

Otherwise, it's just like giving advice to the World Trees and then beating the drums by yourself. Instead of being alone, head-strongly standing at the forefront, trying to make changes that will subvert the world on one's own.

Therefore, unless one is forced into desperation, someone will not consider taking back the Tower of the Great Sage. That was the last resort.

Although one person's calculations are true, others do not know the full picture. But since they know that they are dealing with a magician, most people still know to prepare for the worst and make the most preparations.

Emperor Armin Kazalnia and Grand Duke Ricardo Calvi are able to hold high positions and live to this day. They are not the kind of people who regard people other than themselves as idiots and feel that they can be manipulated and manipulated by themselves. Playful person. Especially with the old Duke at his side, based on his understanding of that person, he dared not underestimate the damage that the magician could cause.

For the old emperor, superfluous thoughts are not feasible, and he can only give up greater interests. Asked about the old Duke's plan, he said: "Since you think those ideas are undesirable, how should I cooperate with them according to your ideas?"

"Your Majesty, the safest way is for you to send people to the center to learn the manufacturing process of automobiles, and then set up a manufacturing factory near the mine. With trucks still in short supply, setting up a factory near raw materials is the best way. As for other nobles who plan to enter the automobile manufacturing industry, they will also follow this method."

"Speaking of mines, there are mines in your grand duchy, but why didn't you set up what you call a factory? Instead, you made great efforts to transport the output of the mines to the automobile center near the Holy City for manufacturing? It seems that the same situation applies to your other partner. Those people from the Jialong Chamber of Commerce."

The emperor's question actually involves the internal intelligence of the automobile center, which is not a public part. But it is not surprising that this supreme master has such control. Duke Kawei also answered bluntly:

"Because for us, it is not cost-effective to do so. To set up a factory that can manufacture cars, we need machines to match it. But these machines are quite targeted. If you want to make different components, you may need to modify them. It is even necessary to eliminate old machines and add new machines and equipment. And these all have costs, that is, they have to be purchased or manufactured by others. However, the progress of automobiles is so fast. The factory may have just been built. The technology it uses is already outdated. At this time, do we need to invest in upgrading the machinery and equipment, or make things with old technology."

The old emperor felt strange and asked: "In this case, why do you suggest that we build this factory?"

"Your Majesty, the empire has nothing. The automobile manufacturing technology that can be used to set up factories must be the most mature and stable quality technology. Using such technology, we can find ways to reduce costs and manufacture cars in large quantities. As long as the empire can outperform others By completing technological upgrading quickly, improving transportation efficiency, and increasing economic benefits, we can take advantage earlier. This is more important than blindly pursuing the best things and the highest technology. As for the best, put it in the most elite legions. Or just use it by your side. For most subjects, even a car with the oldest technology will bring about earth-shaking changes to them."

"Well, it's exactly what you said."

"Besides, Your Majesty. Do you think the other old guys will just cooperate with me as I say? There is still some wrangling."

"Well, indeed." The old emperor agreed helplessly.
