Chapter 23: For the Righteousness
Leon wasn't kidding.
The idol he said is not a young lady who shows her white legs on the stage, but a character who has the same weight as the country and religion.
This is also known as ...... Leader!
As the old pope said, if society wants to progress, it must bring individuals together to cooperate on a large scale. And in the process, a common idol becomes essential.
The Holy See of Light chose religion to become an idol, the Roman Empire chose to make the country an idol, and what the demons need is to make the demon king an idol!
The demon clan is respected by the strong, the monarchy is dictatorial, the status of the demon king is supreme, and it can be said that it is a living idol, as long as there is a little more "publicity", it can immediately become the desire of the people!
"It's not okay for the demon king of the new era to always stay at home, you have to get out of the castle and come to people!" Li Ang shrugged his shoulders and said: "Go down to the grassroots level, walk the front line, give public speeches, carry out public welfare activities, listen to the opinions of the people, improve living standards, hold handshake parties and thanksgiving offerings...... Ah, the last two don't count, anyway, it's to increase the exposure as much as possible, and then equip a professional propaganda team, even if the demon king eats one bite less for lunch, it will be said that he is worried about the country and the people, in short, it is to deify the demon king, so that she becomes the spiritual sustenance and faith pursuit of the people! ”
The light-armored girl frowned slightly: "What is this for?" ”
"Earn the hearts and minds of the people." Li Ang spread his hands and said: "Only when she truly grasps the hearts of the people can the Demon King secure her position, otherwise, even if she can defeat the Bruch family this time, there will be new rebels jumping out next time." After all, the Demon Realm is full of people who can't eat enough, and they can pull out a vote for just two bowls of rice, and it just so happens that the big family is most lacking in food. ”
The girl in light armor shook her face, and she knew that what Li Ang said was right. The Demon Realm first experienced the Great War twenty years ago, and then experienced the change of power, it can be said that the family has been completely defeated, and the people are almost in a state of semi-famine, as long as there is food, it is not difficult to find some people who work hard.
Thinking of this, the girl sighed lightly, a slight trace of tiredness appeared between her eyebrows, and asked helplessly: "As long as you do what you say, can you make everyone have a full stomach?" ”
Leon smiled: "Of course...... No! ”
The girl in light armor turned dark: "You are fooling me?" ”
"What am I fooling you for?" Li Ang waved his hand and said: "Idols can't make people full, but at least they can make people more hungry, I know that some people can live on a pack of instant noodles every day in order to buy a new dress for the paper man's wife or change the paint of the weapon, and it is not bragging to use love to generate electricity." ”
Although she didn't understand the "paper man's wife" and "weapon painting" too well, the light armor girl still understood the meaning. She groaned for a while, and said with some hesitation: "But that's tantamount to deceiving people with fake things, is this really good?" ”
"Of course it's not good, but whatever, it's the Demon King and not me anyway." Li Ang shrugged his shoulders and said: "What the current demon world needs is rest and recuperation rather than a civil war, if you want to resolve this crisis, making the demon king an idol is naturally the most effective and effortless way." What's more, the benefits of cohesion are not only this, but also larger-scale production, and when the time comes, a people's commune or something can be established, and the state will be able to pool resources at least much better than the current mass of scattered sand among the people, and at least it should be a problem to fill the stomach. ”
"Public ownership of the people's commune?" The light armor girl's eyes lit up: "Tell me in detail!" ”
Li Ang smiled and didn't say anything.
A bag of rice has already been nagged, and it will be overrun.
The girl in light armor also reacted and said hurriedly: "I'll add another bag of rice to you!" ”
"No need, you can't be too greedy, everything is too fateful, and it will end early!" After Li Ang finished speaking, he scratched his head and muttered in a low voice: "The main thing is that I can't take it anymore." ”
The light-armored girl was speechless for a while.
"Do you want to leave an address and wait until the next time I come to the front?"
The light-armored girl was a little moved, but finally shook her head: "No need, the public ownership of the people's commune is a matter of the future, and now we still have to give priority to the Bruch family." And ......"
The girl looked Li Ang up and down, and Li Ang asked in wonder, "And?" ”
"And I don't have to wait for the next ......," the girl was halfway through her sentence when she heard a commotion in the distance.
The two of them turned their heads at the same time, and saw a little white-faced man dressed in a gorgeous dress coming out of a shop with two attendants, he looked arrogant, held a piece of pastry in his hand, took a bite and threw it on the ground, and said disdainfully: "Hey, untouchable food." ”
Everyone else was distressed, and even the two attendants swallowed their saliva, and one of them said with a smiling face: "It's not that it's not in line with the taste of the eldest prince, but the villain thinks it's delicious." ”
The eldest prince took out a white handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, full of sissy spirit, glanced at his attendant and said lightly: "If you want to eat, go and get it." ”
The two followers were happy: "Yes, thank you for the reward!" With that, the two of them turned back to the shop, and were about to take the plate of pastries with them.
The boss is an elderly demon, he wants to stop but doesn't dare, and his anxious head is full of sweat. However, his granddaughter's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and she took a bamboo pole and whipped it on the hands of two followers, and said sharply with raised eyebrows: "In broad daylight, you will rob it in the open, do you still have a king law in your eyes?" ”
"Fuck, shit king!" A follower covered the back of his hands and grinned and said: "Lao Tzu is a reformer, and he has always been working hard for the future of you mud-legged people, and eating something from you is to look up to you!" Even I dare to fight, I think you are deliberately obstructing the reform, because you don't want everyone to live a good life! ”
The granddaughter was startled when she heard that the other party called herself a reformist, and most of her momentum just now was gone, and tears rolled in her eyes: "I don't have it, I also want everyone to live a good life......
"Then you dare to stop us?" The attendant said viciously: "Lao Tzu represents the entire demon clan, and what is against Lao Tzu is against the whole demon clan, you little bastard don't come over and kneel down and apologize to Uncle Ben!" ”
"I ......" the granddaughter wanted to say more, but was stopped by the old man.
The old man said with a smiling face: "Yes, she is not a child, and I apologized to the two uncles, old man." ”
"Are you deaf?" The attendant said unforgivingly: "What Lao Tzu said is to kneel down and apologize!" ”
The old man's face froze, and his granddaughter shouted: "Grandpa, you can't kneel!" ”
"Fuck, stinking bitch!" The attendant's face turned black and he was about to make a move, but the old man hurriedly knelt on the ground, hugged the attendant's calf and said, "The adults are angry, the adults are angry, the old man apologizes to you two!" ”
The two attendants glanced at each other, and the corners of their mouths slowly curved. They were just penniless homeless people dying of starvation, and it is because they joined the Bruch family that they are where they are today. They have always been at the bottom of the society and suddenly grasp the rights and status that have never been touched, which makes their humble hearts feel extremely full and satisfied.
A follower nodded proudly, and said like a superior: "Okay, for the sake of your sincere apology, Uncle Ben will forgive you this time." ”
"Thank you, thank you, your lord!"
"But our brother was injured by that stinky bitch, and you have to pay for the medical bills, so it's twenty gold." Another attendant added.
The old man was stunned for a moment, his heart was full of reluctance, but now he can only spend money to eliminate the disaster, he gritted his teeth and said to the granddaughter next to him: "Go, get money for the two adults." ”
"But that's my father's pension, and if we give it to them, we won't be able to open our shop."
"I said go get the money!" The old man blushed and shouted.
Of course he knew what his granddaughter said, but the problem was, he had no choice.
The reformists are the power of the Bruch family, and they are by no means something that he can afford to provoke.
The money was delivered to the two attendants, causing a sickly excitement to flash on their faces.
"Very good, the demons will not forget your contributions!" Dropping this sentence, the two walked quickly to the eldest prince and handed over the twenty gold flatteringly.
"You two are clever, and you have raised funds for the future of the demons." The eldest prince threw the two gold ingots twice, threw them back to the two of them, and said lightly: "But the twenty gold princes are still not eye-catching, so I will reward you." Since that shop dared to do something to the people of the Bruch family, there was no need for it to exist. That old man must be old-fashioned, and it is likely that he is still related to the old emperor, so he will bring him back to the secret prison for me to interrogate. As for the little girl...... Ben Gongzi happened to be short of a maid recently, so let's just her. ”
The two followers were stunned, they just wanted money, and the eldest prince was directly fatal!
The hearts of the big family are really dark!
Looking at the eldest son's smiling face, the two attendants shivered and walked towards the grandfather and grandson who were huddled in the store and kept shivering.
"Don't blame us, it's just that your fate is not good, it's all for the future of the demon race, for the sake of righteousness!"
