Chapter 42: Kevin's True Intentions

When Zhao Yan and his party teleported back to the town, they happened to hear a fierce argument, which seemed to be arguing over whether to send someone to find someone who stayed in Medicine Valley.

It was obvious that the person they were talking about was Zhao Yan's team.

However, when Zhao Yan and the others teleported back, the voices of those disputes suddenly stopped, and then Zhao Yan and the others were surrounded by a crowd, chattering at Zhao Yan non-stop, this situation could not let people hear what they said at all, it only made people feel annoying.

"Stop arguing! If you can't meditate, if you make any more noise, I'll just come here with a burst of magic. ”

The horse monkey soju in meditation was woken up by these people, and his temper was naturally not good, and there was still a stomach full of resentment that was not fully released, so these people became her decompression objects, if it wasn't for the lack of magic, this rotten girl Lori really could have cast a burst magic directly in the town as said.

"Ahh It's Xiaolian, the magic girl who does what she says! ”

"What? It's the magician Xiaolian with a deep background, don't talk anymore, or she will really cast a burst magic here. ”

"Yes, let's stop arguing, let Xiaolian have a quiet place to meditate."

"That's right, everyone, try not to be quiet."

Poof, are these people really okay with their brains? While talking about not being noisy, he was talking loudly, and the noisy situation did not change at all.

At the same time, Zhao Yan even heard the horse monkey shochu next to him muttering to himself, although the voice was small in the noisy environment, Zhao Yan next to her could still hear the content clearly, and immediately reacted, reached out and quickly covered the cherry lips of the horse monkey shochu, interrupting the incantation she was chanting.

"Don't chant magic, do you want to up?"

That's right, this horse monkey soju directly chanted a spell without saying a word, and realized what she said, to make a burst of magic here, and sure enough, as others said, she was a magic girl who did what she said.

Zhao Yan's words plunged the scene into a brief silence, and then a riot scene appeared, everyone hurriedly fled for their lives, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

At this moment, Kevin, the owner of the pharmacy, spoke, and his words calmed the chaotic scene.

"Don't panic, this is just a joke of this magician, not to mention that I have set up a forbidden demon enchantment here, and other magic will not take effect in this enchantment unless I have my permission."

As if in response to Kevin's words, words of surprise suddenly sounded in the crowd.

"It's really like what Kevin said, you can't use magic here."

"That's right, there really is a forbidden demon enchantment here, and magic can't take effect."

Zhao Yan took the whole situation into his eyes, and understood in his heart that these people were just Kevin's trust, the purpose was to let him pretend to be forced and calm down this riot and get the love of the masses, Zhao Yan had long been accustomed to this kind of routine, he adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile, so he didn't debunk this routine, let Kevin pretend to be as much as he wanted, after all, he had to go to receive the award in a while, and he shouldn't have a bad relationship with Kevin before receiving the potion.

The riots caused by the horse monkey soju gradually subsided, as Zhao Yan expected, the store manager Kevin was loved by many people, and then although those people didn't say anything, many angry eyes still fell on Zhao Yan alone, these people didn't dare to offend the horse monkey shochu with a huge family background, so they blamed Zhao Yan for their anger, and sure enough, people were good at being bullied, and Ma was good at being ridden!

"Okay, the last team will also come back safely, then we will now determine the winner of this event than the number of herbs, although the time of this event was terminated early because of the destruction of the monster, but the rewards of the event still have to be awarded, now you are invited to participate in the event The team will hand in the herbs picked for registration, and the team with the highest number of grades will get the treasure of the store as a reward."

Store manager Kevin's words successfully rescued Zhao Yan from everyone's angry eyes, of course, his intention was not so, if Zhao Yan didn't guess wrong, this Kevin should be the kind of dictator who enjoys the eyes of the masses very much, so he is unwilling to attract the attention of others, so he will announce the start of the selection and focus the eyes of others again.

It turned out that Zhao Yan's conjecture was correct, and after Kevin saw that the eyes of the crowd were focused on him again, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he bowed his head in satisfaction, and then continued.

"Of course, in addition to the first place, there are also generous rewards for the second to tenth places, and other teams participating in the event also have participation awards, and finally the herbs picked by everyone, the pharmacy will purchase them at full price according to the price of the herb table catalog, so that the participating teams can get more rewards."

Kevin's words made the audience cheer enthusiastically, and some even sang the praises of his merits, and encouraged Kevin to run in next year's aristocratic election, calling for the support of the masses.

Hearing this, Zhao Yan finally understood Kevin's wishful thinking, he spent so many things on this picking activity, and even took out the potion of the treasure of the town store as a prize, the original purpose was not to support the fight against the siege of Warcraft, but to get the support of the people to become a nobleman through the aristocratic election.

Noble elections, as the name suggests, are a method of making commoners nobles.

The supreme ruler of Yahidang City is naturally the city lord, there is no doubt about this, but the city lords are directly appointed by the Salashi Empire, not elected, and there is one more requirement to be the city lord, that is, he must be a strong man, a super strong man with four turns, and he must be loyal to the empire, so this condition intercepts countless ordinary people who want to be city lords.

Below the lord of the city are the members of the council, they are all directly appointed by the lord of the city, except for all the big and small things in the town, the power is second only to the lord of the city.

The third is the aristocracy, the power of the nobles is still very large, according to the different titles, the full power they have is naturally different, the power of the highest nobles is second only to the emperor of the empire, higher than the city lord, of course, there are some low-level nobles, these low-level nobles are not as good as the members of the council, but even so, the power of the nobles is still greater than that of mercenaries, let alone ordinary people.

In addition to the imperial fiefdom, there is also a hereditary system for the acquisition of nobles, and the acquisition situation is the same as the aristocratic method of the original world, but there is also a method of obtaining nobles in this other world, that is, through elections.

The method of election was to have the support of the people, and of course the support of other nobles and city lords. In order for commoners to become nobles through elections, they must first obtain the consent of the lord of the city, then they must have the support of one-third of the other nobles, and then the general election of the people, and the person with the highest number of votes can become a nobleman.

The election process seems to be very simple, but the real difficulty is like an abyss, first of all, you have to get the support of the city lord, the people who can become the city lord are peerless and strong, how can the commoners who are like ants in his eyes easily convince the city lord, and secondly, one-third of the nobles agree, this difficulty is even worse.

The income of the nobles comes from the allocated land resources, but the area of a town is so large, if a new nobleman is produced, then the resources allocated by the original nobles must be cut off and distributed to the new nobles, how can the old nobles agree to their own interests are reduced, so if you want to get the consent of the nobles, even if it is only one-third of the number, it is still very difficult, and it is greater than the consent of the city lord.

The final popular election, this is of little significance, because the number of people who can participate in the election of nobles every year is one or none, and there is only one, so there is no meaning of voting, so that the city lord can agree and one-third of the nobles agree, even if the people do not agree, they will automatically become nobles.
