Chapter 246: The Reappearance of History

Time flies, and nearly five years have passed since Roland Hill came to the Empire.

"Is Mr. Jialan there?"

In the quiet room, the hardwood door was knocked, and there was a voice of inquiry.

"Come in." There was a light answer in the room.

"thanks."

The afternoon sun is still a bit fierce, the world outside the window is particularly dazzling, and this office room is much cooler and quieter.

Loren Hill wore a comfortable white dress and sat on the seat, and her light blue hair fell on her back and in front of her, complementing her white neck.

Now that the 'Fairy Wood' organization is relatively complete, and she has not many things to deal with, she will be a little curious who is looking for her.

"Hello, Mr. Jialan, I'm Sosifa from Flank Province." The man was wearing a smart white shirt and military trousers.

"The adults may not know me, because I am not a member of the 'Fairy Wood'."

"However, I have cooperated with the organization very early, and I have provided much-needed materials in many ways before, which is why I am trusted."

"Then why are you here today?" Roland Hill gently supported his head with one hand, and his white and slender wrists were exposed from the cuffs.

She is mainly responsible for education, construction of laws, propaganda and guidance in the 'Fairy Wood'. Regarding commerce and taxation, it is Lubin and others who are in charge, so she is a little unfamiliar with this one.

"Actually, there are some questions I want to ask adults."

He bent down to salute before speaking.

"A lot of changes have taken place within the empire today, especially the new emperor has begun to follow the reform of the southern border, and this trend has gradually spread to the border of the empire."

"I can say that the people who have made more profits as the organization grows and expands, and now there are many industries in the local area."

He began to describe his industry in detail, with a large steel mill in the area and mining rights to several mines.

"It can be said that I do have more influence than ordinary people, but I also want to ask you a question, whether I can get more protection." He looked at the appearance and himself A girl with a similar daughter asked earnestly.

In fact, Socifa's coming today is not just his personal idea. There are also many similar owners of large chambers of commerce. The owner of the factory wants to use this to explore the arrangement of the "Fairy Tree" organization for these people.

Later, they found this Socifa who was closely related to the organization, but did not belong to the 'Fairy Wood' organization.

"Is that so?"

Roland Hill was thoughtful, she gently shook the bell, and asked Yiena, who was resting next door, to come over and put a chair for this Mr. Socifer.

Soon after, the lady maid had a wooden chair brought over, and tea was added.

"What kind of coverage do you want?"

Roland Hill looked at the man and continued to ask. She guessed that this man must have heard about what happened at the Imperial Council recently, so she asked this question.

"Uh...how to describe this, I'm not craving superhuman power, I know this is not recognized by the organization."

"However, I also hope that I will not be framed or manipulated so easily."

"Sir, you also know that when a person has a huge amount of wealth, it is inevitable that some people will be jealous, so they will use some unconventional means. For example, frame up, or falsely accuse and so on."

"It doesn't cost much for them, and as long as it succeeds, they can get huge benefits, so there will be people who will take risks."

"What about specifics?"

"For example, let's put it this way, in the organization's law, factories are not allowed to abuse employees, or hide safety hazards or anything like that."

"I did follow the above requirements, but if someone deliberately forged or entered my factory pretending to be a worker and falsely accused me of doing something wrong, what should I do?"

"Things like this are often hard to tell apart, and if they came often, I might have been arrested by the legal correction team."

"This is the first point. They can try to profit from me at a small price."

"The second point is that some small officials can use their power to blackmail me how to deal with it."

"Most people in the organization are good people, which I take for granted, but occasionally there will be one or two people with bad behavior. They may not have a high monthly income, so they take advantage of their positions to deliberately get stuck with me, and embarrass me. How to deal with it.”

"If I oppose them, does it mean that I oppose the organization, and if they imprison me on the grounds of law enforcement, what should I do at this time?"

"You might say that you can appeal through the law or something, but when I was imprisoned, the whole person lost freedom and safety, which is a very terrifying thing."

Although his expression was a little vague, Roland Hill vaguely guessed his true intention, that is, he hoped to obtain certain power protection.

It's not that this person is bad or anything, he just hopes that his wealth can be safe, long-term, and maintained.

In fact, these problems have occurred in previous lives, and the methods adopted by different countries are also different. Some people use agents to isolate themselves at various levels to protect themselves well and stay away from ways that may threaten them. There are also people who will directly gain certain power and enter the upper echelons of society.

"I probably understand what you mean." The girl looked at the man and nodded, but she didn't want to answer directly.

"We will set up relevant laws in the future to punish those who are framed, and we will also internalize

Department staff to review and continuously correct errors. "

After speaking, Roland Hill slowly drank the tea until the man couldn't sit still.

"And then, do you have other, er, more different measures, sir?"

"Sorry, no. Our organization's belief is that everyone is equal, and wealth can give you more choices, but it doesn't mean you can be above others."

"However, if someone is jealous and makes me want to plunder my wealth with just a trivial matter, what should I do?" His words were finally unstable.

"If it's a legal judgment, that kind of behavior will be cross-examined by the upper management of the organization. After all, you have a lot of properties, so be careful."

"If it's not a legal judgment, but a bad person is bullying you, then you can report it to the organization, and we will investigate accordingly."

Gu Peng

"But...but..." He hesitated for a long time, and finally held back the topic, then slowly shut up, and had to get up and say goodbye.

However, what if those officers were no longer fair, the girl said that sentence for him in her heart.

Regarding this issue, some countries in the past have stated from the beginning that the upper class cannot be trusted, so it is necessary to have a gun in hand, a jury, so-called evidence, etc., etc., in order to achieve a balance.

However, how can the little commoners fight against the rich, it's just a complicated fig leaf.

In fact, this is also a difficult problem in modern society. When a person has huge wealth, enterprises, and many people working for him, it is difficult to regard him as the same as ordinary people.

No matter how much they adjust the laws and systems, they can gradually erode or bypass them through various means, and these people will use these overt or covert powers to gradually swallow up fairness, and finally make the country or the world unbalanced. become a mess.

Before the arrival of that day, human beings have to hold their noses and fight against this disease. If you exploit the loopholes, then I will fill the loopholes. If you corrupt the country and make a mess, there will be a country that is healthier than you and will surpass you. replace.

Although it cannot be eliminated, it can be iterated slowly so that it does not become completely bad.

What changes the world has always been a comprehensive innovation in technology.

Because of the railway, the country's resources are connected, all large-scale production, and the construction of the industrial chain is gradually formed.

Because of the radio and the Internet, the minds of all citizens have begun to converge, with a unified idea, a unified voice, a unified sense of identity and collective memory.

Because of cameras and QR codes, the tracking and trajectories of various people can be clearly estimated, and many crimes have also begun to decline.

When the technology becomes more and more abundant, the dark corners will become less and less, and finally tend to be bright and fair.

In the twilight era, the humans of the "Primordial Heart" faction discussed the end of the system construction and the ultimate solution to the problem, which is also the origin of the later "Throne of God" plan.

It's a pity that they fell halfway, and then the 'Mechanical Council' picked it up and continued to walk, but the way of walking seems to be different from the 'Original Heart'.

Based on the idea that everything is a tool to me, the 'Mechanical Council' brought the tool attributes of the 'Throne of God' to the extreme, which also temporarily created the strength of the ancients, but unfortunately this also led to the convergence of all human beings. It also makes the ability to resist risks extremely low in disasters.

The tides of the sea of ​​Aijika submerged everything, and the remaining humans formed the "Sun of God's Wings", and they found out the idea of ​​"Tree of Life Sect", started over, and continued to walk.

Although it is a new world now, the situation encountered in the past will be encountered by the current civilization again.

At this time, Loren Hill couldn't explain to this man that the world would change immediately, and what he said would no longer be a problem in the future.

But for now, let's be patient.

——————

In the middle of the empire, the chambers of commerce and rich people who were rich because of emerging industries began to chase power. They clearly understood that there was no power in the empire, and that wealth was just a fat sheep to be slaughtered. to capture.

In the absence of a sense of security, these people's thirst for power is unimaginable for ordinary people.

Although the emperor opened up the status of members of the local edict council, so that a small part of these people can participate in politics and gain some voice, but under the inertia of the imperial tradition, the nobles still have a great aloofness.

A nobleman duel with a wealthy businessman in the street, killing the other side, will not do much, and the noble court will also favor nobles. In the same way, if a wealthy businessman used a conspiracy to kill a noble, he would be wiped out and all his property would be confiscated.

It is also because of this that although the emperor has opened up some of his powers, many chambers of commerce have gradually formed their own protection forces under the urging of a lack of security after gaining huge wealth.

Such armed behavior gradually touched the sensitive nerves of the fiefdom nobles.

You are doing business on my territory, and you still maintain such a large armed force. Who is in charge here?

In the empire, the conflict between nobles and wealthy businessmen gradually intensified.

However, unlike the turbulent situation in the central region, the southern border is booming.

First of all, there are no nobles in the southern border. It was cleaned up in the early stage of the imperial civil war. Later, the continuous uprisings and rebellions consumed a lot. Finally, the unification of the 'Fairy Wood' destroyed the only remaining small nobles and ruled in name only. the end of the Duke of Red Dragon

The descendants publicly stated that they gave up their noble status and all their privileges, so that other minor nobles dared not say anything.

Can you be more honorable and noble than the Baska family, obviously not, so under the circumstances, you can only accept, and finally become the same as ordinary people, and re-accept the distribution and division of the local land by the 'Fairy Tree' organization .

But now the 'Fairy Wood' organization is in its nascent stage, and the first group of people it created are still there. It is the period when its beliefs are the most prosperous and rising. Naturally, there are no various diseases of the old organization. Although some people may be influenced by the middle of the empire and raise some careful thoughts, it is not a climate, and there is not much soil.

However, the situation in other regions of the empire is not so clear.

There are many plains in the east, with suitable climate, mainly planting, trade, and animal husbandry. Although there are many handicrafts and new-style workshops, most of them were developed by the original local nobles themselves. They were the industry of nobles from the beginning. , so it didn't cause much problems.

Thanks to the influence of the elf blood, the concept of the eastern nobles is often longer, they will live longer, so they also pay more attention to sustainable development, so the treatment of workers is still acceptable, and therefore, conflicts are more little.

The northern region is currently limited by the cold disaster, and it is difficult to develop the economy. However, the workshops gradually established in various regions require a large amount of raw materials and minerals. The residents who survive here have begun to rely on the mining of mines to survive.

Compared with the cold outdoors, mines underground or in the mountains seem to be much warmer. Therefore, many people's lifestyles have begun to change.

The western border is mainly forests and hilly mountains, with fewer plains, relying on the Blue River that passes through the Sigh Mountains, and the border defenses of the southern border of the empire. The family of Salius, the Duke of Griffin, holds the main road to Crancia.

The east and west sides of the mainland meet and trade with each other, and most of the profits generated from it flow into the hands of the fief aristocrats in the west, and they also scoff at the Empire's New Deal.

Rich businessman? They were just sheep passing by on their own territory, and they were sheared and sheared every year.

How can sheep ride on people's heads and give them power without thinking about it. And for the rule of the new emperor Elio, these Western nobles also gradually became dissatisfied.

year end. The nobles of the central provinces began to embezzle the properties of the chamber of commerce because of their jealous interests, which led to conflicts one after another, some workshops were closed, and a large number of unemployed and landless workers began to live on the streets.

Broken Mars begins to germinate.

ps:

If you don’t talk about things like politics, you won’t be able to explain it. Otherwise, many plots will not be explained, the world will become unreal, and the audience will not understand.

But this can be a bit boring at times, so I'll try to minimize these in the future, unless it's unavoidable.

I don't want to write about troublesome and mind-consuming politics, I just want to write about Loren's warm daily life, but...why did it come to this point, is this the price of writing epic novels__
