Chapter 154 154 "Why Did Your Majesty Rebel?"
Chapter 154 154· "Why did your Majesty rebel?"
"Three stupid countries without vision! They will definitely pay the price for this wrong decision!" Marner said angrily.
The secretary thought for a while, but still took the risk of being scolded and spoke softly:
"Mr. Marner, according to our information, the Three Kingdoms Alliance is absolutely dominated by the Eastern Kingdom. The research directions of the scientific researchers from the other two countries are almost all designated by the Eastern Kingdom.
The reason why the Southern Alliance and Northern Maoist 'do what they say', even if the content of the current research has nothing to do with what they need most, is because in exchange for benefits, the Eastern Conference will provide the two countries with a certain amount of "exotic stones". And this number is more than two hundred...
Not to mention, Dongguo sometimes provides some front-end technologies... It's a pity that our chess pieces cannot access the content of these technologies..."
After a moment of silence, Marner did not lose his composure again. He rubbed his brow and leaned on the chair:
"Being able to give out so many "extraordinary stones" means that in Dongguo's eyes, the "extraordinary stones" in our hands are simply unimportant fractions.
Ha, that's ridiculous.
Weird, weird. In terms of geographical location, Nanlian may be a little less, but as the country with the largest area of Blue Star, shouldn't they be able to collect the largest number of "exotic stones"?
There are also many scientific and technological talents in Beimao. If Dongguo can occupy an absolute leadership position, there must be something we don't know...
Damn Dongguo, I knew that they and their Mr. "Hope" hid a lot of information from us just to get the top spot in the Era of Natural Disasters!
This group of villains are selfish and ignore the righteousness of mankind. How abominable! "
Marna muttered resentfully, his words full of jealousy towards Dongguo, but when he opened his eyes and looked at his secretary again, his words were somewhat different:
"Resubmit the application and state that we don't need much, and we will completely obey Dongguo's arrangements. We will not have any personal ideas. If there is anything we need to provide, even if it is the "exotic stone" of our entire country, we will Will spare no effort to provide.
Even if the final research results are not shared with us, it doesn’t matter, but if you are willing to rent or sell them to us, we can accept it.
Keep your stance as low as possible, and if we can join their alliance, it will all be worth it. "
This was an almost groveling plea.
But it's not shabby. Marner scolded it very fiercely, but he also knew very well that Dongguo, which could throw hundreds of "exotic stones" to other countries, was definitely Blue Star's biggest asset in the Era of Natural Disasters.
What's more, Dongguo may have more to offer than "strange stones".
If you don’t leave me here, there is a place where you can leave me. If you don’t leave me here, then I will be your grandson.
Flying Eagle, I'm sorry, we are not familiar with them. We from Fashou Nation wish them all the best.
"Understood. I will ask the external relations staff to write in your tone when I go back later. I will probably apply to their alliance to join again tonight."
After hearing this, the secretary marked this page in the report book, then turned the page and continued the report:
"Mr. Marner, what's left now is the disaster situation in our country so far... Do you want to listen?"
"Tell me." Upon hearing this, Marner raised his eyebrows helplessly and angrily, and leaned back on the chair slightly decadently.
Because this is a report that you don't even need to hear to know that it will be very bad. Doesn't Marner still know what kind of B-number his country has developed in the past two days?
"Mr. Marner, as of now, the completion rate of our evacuation plan is about 7%, the death rate of citizens is 2452% higher than expected, and the material reserve is 34% of the original plan..."
This is a rather lengthy report with a lot of content and a lot of numbers involved.
These numbers may be large or small, but without exception, no matter how big or small they are, the secretary can feel that every time he says one, Marner's temples will twitch and his breathing will become rapid at the same time.
I have B number, but B number is not enough.
I didn't expect that the situation had deteriorated like this.
How could Marner believe that such a complete plan would appear on one of the Seven Alliances of Magic Hands two months ago?
"... In short... In short, Mr. Marner, our current situation is not optimistic. There are more or less problems with materials and manpower. Do you... have any plans for this?"
By the end, the secretary's voice was already weak and weak, and it seemed a little difficult to speak.
"Plan? Does beating myself to death count as a plan?" Marner said with some self-deprecation while soothing his twitching veins.
Of course the secretary would not respond to this joke. After a moment of silence in the room, Marner himself spoke again:
"Death is inevitable. Let the dead die. Those who are alive probably don't care much about the lives of those people."
Who has not seen death during the ice disaster? Many people in Blue Star have become numb to death, and they will not have such strong empathy in peacetime. Therefore, it will help Marner fish in troubled waters and directly Ignore death.
"We just have to deal with the survivors, even though it's just as serious for us."
Tell them that the ice disaster that made everyone unable to go out and move has passed, so we will not allow anyone to be lazy and live relying on our official relief.
It’s not that we don’t want to do it, it’s that we can’t do it either.
The era of high welfare in Magic Hands should have died a month ago.
Starting from tomorrow, the daily supplies that each person can receive at the relief points will be reduced to one-third of the original amount, and those receiving relief will be told that this is not the limit, and will be reduced by one-quarter or one-fifth in the future. , until it is no longer distributed at all.
If you want to get enough supplies to survive, then stop thinking about getting something for nothing.
We will still be in the midst of an earthquake for another month. Compared with the first two, the polar night is an opportunity to cultivate health and recuperate. The entire magic weapon is now in a state of exhaustion. Our official will start to announce a lot of work, such as going out to collect supplies, etc. If the citizens of Franceshou want to live now, they have to work.
As for those who are unable to work and those who are too lazy to work, let's take this opportunity to eliminate them. We have done our best.
This is a necessary decision. If those who want to get something for nothing have objections and are allowed to suppress it by force, whoever dares to make such a fuss can be Louis XVI and have his head beheaded in public again. "
Marner said smoothly, this was an early draft.
With the scarcity of supplies and the uncertainty of the future, it is unrealistic to rely on relief all the time.
Moreover, resources must be allocated to the military and officials.
"Okay, Mr. Marner, I understand. We will tell all surviving citizens at the same time when we distribute supplies tonight." The secretary nodded respectfully.
"Well, is there anything else you want to report?" Marner asked.
"There are a few other things, not too big or too small."
"explain."
"The first thing is about General Linkford. He made some dangerous remarks about slaves yesterday. Although they were private, they were leaked out somehow.
——He believes that the system of slavery needs to be restored, treating the incompetent as human beings, and feeding the capable with the flesh and blood of the incompetent.
And this caused those black people to think that this was an insinuation and wanted them to return to the plantation, which caused quite a stir. I would like to ask, do we need to punish General Lin Kefu? "
"Don't report this kind of thing in the future. Send a message to Lin Kefu and ask him not to speak out what's on his mind. Then declare that he didn't mean it and apologize. Our country can no longer withstand any storms." Marner Said somewhat helplessly.
Neither he nor the secretary are black, but now the magic hand has turned into a black shape, which cannot be removed or returned.
"What if they don't accept it?"
"That's almost it. I've already apologized. What else do you want to do?"
The secretary nodded and was about to continue reporting when there was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Marner frowned slightly. His bodyguard should know that a confidential report was still going on inside, so he shouldn't disturb him at this time.
If you can't wait to knock on the door now, it can only mean that some emergency has occurred, and usually at this time, the news that comes is not good.
Sure enough, when his bodyguard walked in, he came to his side and whispered softly:
"Mr. Marner, General Linkford has claimed that there is an emergency and needs to report to you immediately."
It also means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao have arrived.
Marner looked at the secretary and asked: "If the things that need to be reported later are not important, let's stop here and do what I told you first. We can talk about the rest later."
"No, I'll leave first, Mr. Marner." The secretary nodded and left the room immediately.
"Let Lin Kefu come in, I hope this bad news will be less bad."
Marner said while rubbing his eyebrows.
"General Linkfu, are you playing with another race..." When Linkfu came to him, Marner was about to make a few jokes, but the other party interrupted him directly and said something he didn't expect. 'The bad news:
"Mr. Marner! Something big happened! All our "exotic stones" were stolen! "
"I said...what!? What did you say! How could the "exotic stone" be stolen? ! Marner stood up suddenly. Even with the bad news before, he had never been so out of his mind.
Marner looked at the man in front of him angrily, and he asked again:
"Linkfu, what did you say? Say it again?"
"Mr. Marner, of the two hundred and nine "exotic stones" that were scattered and hidden in our seven "warehouses", five were stolen. All the "exotic stones" inside were missing. Four of the warehouses Nothing was left behind. In one warehouse, the remains of "strange stones" were left all over the floor. As for the liquid inside, it must have been absorbed by people! "
Linkford said.
"This is our lifeline now... Without these two hundred or so, our chances of entering their "Odd Stone Research Alliance" will be low again. This is really bad for us... Damn, the most abominable thing is that the thief took so much of it openly!
Mr. Marner, as the leader of magicians, you have only sucked one "extraordinary stone" so far, and some people still mention this matter to criticize you! "
"Who did it! Who the hell did it!" Marner slapped the table with his palms one after another and asked loudly.
The anger was palpable.
"... All the surveillance cameras were accurately destroyed, and the clues we got were really few. The only 'criminal' we caught had already committed suicide in his room when we found him.
But we haven't recovered any of the "exotic stones" he stole. The autopsy results haven't come out yet, but I don't think he took them.
Mr. Marner, a more serious problem than the theft is... we have a mole, and I'm afraid there is more than one mole, and his status is not low! "Link Kefu lowered his voice subconsciously.
Like a handful of cold water poured on his head, Marner quickly realized this and knew the precious magic power of the "Strange Stone", so he gave it the best security measures after the disaster, and even used cunning rabbit holes.
"The other party's ability to carry out accurate theft means that they know all our information about the "exotic stone", the layout of the surveillance, the flow of security personnel, and they even know the passwords of these hiding spots! Physical destruction of our boxes will affect the "strange stones"! "
"That's right." Marner stood up and stopped sitting, pacing back and forth in front of Linkfurt.
"Are you hindering the progress of the country for your own selfish interests? Do you want to be the first to complete the so-called evolution? Oh, that's probably the idea.
good very good. Such an evil moth appears in our hands.
Check! Must be checked! Carry out a comprehensive physical examination! Be sure to find this guy and deal with him!
No, simply killing is too cheap. You can’t die. After taking so many "exotic stones", it is best to be an experimental subject without human rights. Let us study the mystery of the "exotic stones". "
Marner almost said these words through gritted teeth.
He simply hated the other person.
"Understood! Mr. Marner, I agree with your statement. I will definitely find the murderer for you!" Lin Kefu left quickly after hearing this. "I will immediately start arranging a physical examination."
After the door was closed, the room fell silent again.
Soothing the corners of his twitching mouth, Marner looked at the empty room and at the French Hand Country, which was suffering from internal and external troubles. In the quiet moment, he could finally say with emotion:
"I've been walking on thin ice in my life, can I make it to the other side?"
Rubbing his cheeks that were sore from his over-exaggerated performance, he said to himself:
"I worked hard for the magic hand. Is it not too much to take away more than half of it? At least a small half is left."
"This is my labor fee, and it is also my way out."
He is the magic hand worm that was just 'hated by Marna'.
And if nothing else, it is a moth that cannot be caught.
