Chapter 295: Opposites

A large part of the reason why William and the Golden Lion were able to go to war and eventually win was that they had airships capable of carrying people to the sky, and the reason why so many airships were built was also due to the hard work and overtime of the various factories in the textile industrial area of Kalmar City.

Although these workers could not go to the battlefield and their personal strength might not be as good as even the most ordinary soldiers, they played a huge role in defending the East China Sea and defeating a sea thief like the Golden Lion Shiji.

Like many textile mill workers, when Frisco heard that the Navy Headquarters was going to send someone after William defeated the Golden Lion Shiki, he thought that the world government was going to reward William who defeated Shiki and the people of the East China Sea.

Seeing that when the Tianlong people inspected the East China Sea, countless Donghai people cheered, felt honored, and even excited to see the Tianlong people, knowing that for the natives of this world, the status of the world government is different from that of the kingdom.

The kingdom represents only a corner of the land, and the world government represents the world!

But as a result, what Ferrisk and other workers were waiting for was not commendation, not honor, not reward, but unemployment, arrest, and hardship.

Morgan. William was convicted and imprisoned by the navy, the nobles and kings of the past ****, for the people in the slums, it is a big event that the sky is about to fall, people with a little brain know that the nobles and kings hate William to the core, and the people in the slums rely on William's policies to live a gradually rich and decent life, here, Morgan. William had many supporters, and the directors of those factories were also Morgan. William propped it up, how could the nobles and the king make the people here feel better after they came to power?

When the directors were arrested, the factories were shut down one by one, and the protesters were unceremoniously expelled and suppressed by the Navy headquarters, the people of the slums finally understood that the existence of the industrial zone in Kalmar City was about to be gone forever.

Most of the people who can work in the factory are reluctant to go back to the past, but after waiting for a while, there is no turnaround, and those unemployed workers can only find another way to make a living.

Without looking at the factories that had been built in the last two years, and the workers' uniforms commonly worn by pedestrians on the streets, Ferrisk almost thought he had traveled back in time to his old days in the ghetto.

Before he became a worker, he worked as a pickpocket, but he was not very successful, so he didn't want to go back to his old job, so he chose to work in a tavern.

Ferisk was not a smart and capable person, but he once fainted because he worked two days and two nights without rest in the factory when he worked overtime in the factory, so he appeared in the newspaper news and was publicized as an advanced deed, and many people in the industrial area knew him, and also knew his plight and family situation, and took care of him, and when he cleaned up the table, people who knew him often left him a small tip.

Basco and the others also noticed this, and after some drinkers left, they would always greet Ferrisque, and then put a little money under the plate, and take it away when Ferisk cleaned up the table, and the other waiters did not have this treatment.

They were basically here for the first time, and they didn't know why, only the soldier who brought them over knew it, and told them about it, which made a group of people sigh.

Basco silently took two Baileys out of his arms and pressed them under his plate.

After the establishment of the factories, the situation has improved a lot, but when the factories are closed, these large number of unemployed female workers can only go down the old road, so there is no shortage of women in the whole tavern, and the warblers spraying cheap perfume soon filled these people, except for Basco, almost everyone has a woman in their arms, laughing and feeding each other wine.

Basco didn't like this kind of occasion very much, and after hearing what happened to Ferrisque, he was even less in the mood, sitting alone in the corner and drinking, but soon, he found that his surroundings were a little quieter, and those rogue warblers who had been laughing with his comrades stopped talking, and the smiles on their faces were lost.

Basco straightened up and looked around, finally discovering who was responsible for this.

Several Navy soldiers in white uniforms walked in.

Basco's brow furrowed deeply.

No matter what the four vice admirals in the temporary command of the Navy Headquarters think, in the eyes of the people in Kalmar City and even in the East China Sea, the current situation in the East China Sea is due to the perverse actions of the Navy Headquarters.

The robbery of the capital of the Kingdom of Falais and the burning of the royal palace did not reach the ears of Karp and others through the special channels of the navy, so in this city, not only the vice admirals of the navy knew, but also many people.

They believe that it is precisely because the people of the Navy Headquarters sent the hero who saved the East China Sea to prison for no reason that the Evil Dragon Pirates and the Bucky Pirates, two gangs of villains who were originally suppressed and defeated by William, were able to escape from William's hands and commit such crimes.

Not to mention that during their time in the city, in order to help the nobles and the king control the situation, they vigorously suppressed the rebels, listened to the words of the nobles and framed them, and arrested the city residents in the name of William's comrades.

The attitude of the people of the city, especially the people of the slums, towards the naval headquarters has long since changed from the expectation before their arrival to hatred.

"How dare they come to the tavern in the ghetto, not afraid of being drunk and thrown into a puddle and drowned?" One of the garrison fighters whispered.

"What are they afraid of, if anyone dares to do this, they will definitely be characterized by them as William's accomplices, and then they will be arrested and put in prison, and they will be executed with William when the time comes." Another warrior replied sarcastically.

One of them looked at the naval soldiers coldly and said, "These bastards from the Navy Headquarters must be very happy now, they have successfully made the East China Sea as a mess like the Great Shipping Route." ”

"Maybe they did it on purpose, and now the East China Sea seems to be inseparable from them." Someone else said.

Basco sighed: "If Lord William were still here, this city and the East China Sea would not have fallen into such a situation. ”

As soon as his voice fell, he saw his comrades-in-arms looking at each other, and no one dared to answer this stubble anymore.

When Basco and the others spoke, the navy had already swaggered to the bottom of the stage and sat down, these naval soldiers didn't think too much, they usually just obeyed orders, they didn't know much about the attitude of the upper echelons and the changes in the entire East China Sea environment, and in the propaganda within the army, they naturally didn't say anything good about William, they still thought that they were on the side of justice, although there were many companions who had similar experiences, and they had said in the navy that the locals were hostile to the navy, But these navy soldiers, who were finally able to come out to relax, did not really understand the gap between the two sides.

It is not the "minority" and Morgan who hate them. The criminals of William's accomplices, but the local "majority".
