Chapter 643: The First Song of the Evil Beast (2) Greed

The last of Hulse's old friends, or acquaintances, who witnessed Hulse's family being helpless and attacking with a wave of grief and indignation, was also killed in 2426, and Hulse personally sent him to the funeral, and then closed the gate on the mountain again.

As Boligu said, the catalyst for the industrial revolution has been laid out, and the next thing will depend on Dima's own efforts.

With the passing of the older generation, the new generation is gaining a foothold in Dima, and the new generation of Dima people is very different from their parents, even the Dima people, who have received systematic education from the common people, are full of confidence in life and the future, and do not have so much compassion and caution.

Of course, the industrial revolution will cause a large number of landless civilians to fall to the point where the living standards of the common people are worse than the original serfs, but Dima is a freak in the industrial revolution, due to the restrictions of the Philippine argon on Siber, the current situation of Sib has become a city where Sibo supports Dima, so that even the living standards of civilians in Dima City are much higher than in the past.

Of course, at the same time, as the price of the whole country to support a city, there have been more or less waves of bankruptcy and exile in other regions, and the prosperity of Dima has been supported by the bankruptcy and exile of other regions, but unfortunately, there are no economists in the world, and no one can accurately point this point.

What surprised and surprised Leng Yi even more was that in recent years, Dima has developed new technologies on its own, one is a new type of glass, the second is a new type of soy sauce, and the third is the improvement of the Hulse type hydraulic textile machine.

The most valuable thing about these three inventions is not the meaning of the invention itself, but the proof that Dima can invent on his own without relying on the golden finger of the cold game.

The overjoyed cold game made Boligu reward those craftsmen who invented new things, and for a time Dima's atmosphere was invigorated, and the word "innovation" of Boligu's "invention" became a hot word, and the common people knew that as long as there was "innovation", the common people could also carp and jump into the dragon gate, and a virtuous circle began.

But the virtuous cycle is confined to one city, Dima, who, after more than two decades of development, has increasingly hijacked Sydney's economy and squeezed the rest of Sibber's city to its knees.

As the old saying goes, the argon nobles of the Philippines don't understand economics, but they can feel that the situation in Sibura has become more and more chaotic over the years, and it must have something to do with Dima.

And the development of Dima in the past twenty or thirty years is shocking, taking the population as an example, the improvement of agricultural technology and the city with an advanced sewer system designed by Leng Yi himself, so that the population of Dima has grown by leaps and bounds, and the sum of those born naturally and exiled here has easily surpassed the capital of Sib, Urdoch, and now nearly one-third of the population of Sib is concentrated in Dima.

In fact, at this time, Dima has become one of the most populous cities in the entire southern Xinjiang continent, and only a few metropolises are still behind him, but according to Dima's growth rate, it will not be long before three-quarters, four-fifths or even more of Xibo's population will be concentrated in Dima.

Sensing the danger, coupled with the fact that Dima's huge profits over the years really blinded the nobles who scoffed at cheap Dima's clothes, they couldn't help but finally do it, of course, not by themselves, but by hiding in Urdoci to control the actions of the nobles who controlled Siber.

In the year 2440 of the Great Calendar, without the slightest warning, Gechi, Love, Urdoch and other places suddenly raised the tariffs on Dima, claiming that Dima's cheap products seriously damaged the interests of other cities, and then Urdoch's envoys came to ask Dima to hand over the Hulse-style textile technology, and everyone was interested.

What should I do if this happens? There was a lot of quarrel at the Dima meeting, and some nobles said that they would fight, but if they didn't fight, they would give them all the skills, and what should they do if they came back next time? Other nobles said that the fight would attract Filipino argon, and even if Filipino argon did not come, things could not be sold, and Dima would be finished.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, everyone looked at the one sitting on the side of the first plate, the "great sage" Boligu, according to Boligu himself, he was 10 years old and enlightened, 30 years of penance, 40 years old to Dima, and he is still in his eighties, although he is full of silver hair and beard, but his steps are still hearty, and it is difficult to see that he is an old man in his eighties.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Boliguriso kicked the ball: "This matter still depends on the thoughts of the Lord of the Dima Hills before it can be decided." ”

So everyone looked at the empty first seat, since the death of the last old follower who followed Huls, Huls locked himself in the palace again, if it weren't for the news coming out from time to time, everyone would have thought that Hulse was dead, but what would he do if he didn't come?

"You can't make a decision about Uldoch's ransom letter, and I can't make a decision either, the only one who has the prestige to make a decision is the Hill Master, and the Hill Lord has not replied yet, which means that he himself has not figured it out and is still thinking about it. ”

"Well, the deadline is getting closer, when will the Lord of the Hill figure it out," some of the nobles let out a long sigh.

It has been 18 years since the development of the "Lingmen gun", and the original master has long been developed, and the reason why it has not been implemented is that it has not yet solved the method of mass production.

After the ransom letter arrived, Boligu told Hulse the fifth step of the "Iron Ambition" plan, which was to unify Siber first, then Sydney, and reforge the kingdom of the Sydneysiders with iron and blood.

But when it came to this point, Hulse began to waver, because from the research and development of the "Spirit Gate Gun" and the impact of Dima's transformation on the outside world over the years, Huls has keenly seen that he may not be building a brave new world, but cultivating a vicious beast, a human-loving evil beast.

Once the "Lingmen Gun" is perfectly developed according to the original design and can be produced on a large scale, then a temporary new era will come, the era of a small number of elites deciding the battlefield will pass, and the era of civilians holding the "Lingmen Gun" across the battlefield will come, and the value of "people" will become more and more important.

And then there's the expansion of the industry, little by little, and the unprecedented impact on the surrounding markets, which will push Dima to seek an ever-expanding market, and then Dima will become a beast purely for expansion, but when there is no way to expand, what will happen to that beast? Who will he devour?

Huls sensed this, and he feared for that future, for many of the signs of that terrible future had already been foreshadowed at this time.

In the past few days, Hulse has been distraught and has not come down the mountain, not even going to the "Lingmen Gun Factory", just thinking about this doomed problem, until a warning pulls Hulse back to the real world.

It was a jade-level intruder, and his strength was not necessarily strong, at least Hulse easily found him, and the reason why he didn't react immediately was because before the intruder invaded, he shouted loudly outside the palace, saying that he had something to say to Hulse, and only climbed in over the wall after getting no response.

Parson Dofan was walking here on tiptoe, although this is a palace, but because no one has cleaned it, there are cobwebs and thick dust everywhere, Dofan can only carefully avoid these obstacles, and walk towards the highest building, because Dofan thinks that a person as great as "Mad Man" Huls must live in the most luxurious residence.

Just as Duofan stepped lightly across a corridor, a clicking sound suddenly came from behind him, and Duofan turned his head with a stiff face, knowing that his adventure was over.

In less than ten minutes of conversation, Hulse easily set out Duofan's background, of course, this also included Duofan's lack of vigilance.

Dolfan comes from the Parson family, and the Parson family is a branch of the aristocratic family that migrated to Urdoch from the east after the end of the "Second Siber War" more than a hundred years ago, and belongs to the Siernake people, after all, Urdoch is the capital of Siber, and Fiargon must choose a family that he can trust as much as possible.

And Duofan is 20 years old this year, exactly one hundred and twenty years younger than Huls, and he is also in the graduation season this year, and his graduation practice is to travel to Dima.

In fact, Dofan belonged to the exchange students who went to Dima, that is, Dofan still nominally belonged to Urdochi, but he studied in Dima for several years. Duofan originally only expected to stay for 3 years, but he was attracted by the prosperity of Dima, and couldn't help but stay for 5 years, until this year.

"Uh-huh, I probably understand, but what is the reason why you climbed over the wall to get in?" Duofan was more than a clichΓ©, his mouth box could not be closed from the moment it was opened, so that Hulse had to remind the young man to return to the subject.

"Lord Huls, although I am only an exchange student from Urdoc, I still go home every winter and summer vacation, and it is the annual return home that makes me realize the difference between Dima and the outside world. ”

"Dima is an open land, a free land, everything in it is so rhythmic, the beauty intoxicates me, and my favorite sound is the creaking hum of the hydrospinning machine, and the endless whimsy. ”

"But this can only be found in Dima, Urdoch, where the guilds have been frightened by Dima, and denounce all 'innovations', is that what the word says?

"In addition to Urdoch, even Bejara I have been to Bejara, and after arriving in Bejara, I understand that although Bejara has more population than Dima, it is far inferior to Dima in all aspects, Dima is vibrant, Bejara is lifeless, if there is a change, it is only because of Dima and woke up some people. ”

Your so-called awakening is the resentment of a large number of craftsmen who have been deprived of their real estate, squeezed by the goods of Dima and lost their jobs, and how can you, a nobleman who can only play in the upper city, see all this, Hulse let out a long sigh in his heart, but his face was still listening to Duofan's words quietly.

"So I'm here to visit you, although I'm not from Dima, but when I graduate, I'm definitely going to live in Dima," Duofan took out a piece of paper, and there were many words written in blood on it, "I and many of my classmates have jointly written to ask you to firmly reject Urdoch, so that we will never see that vibrant Dima again!"

Seeing that the 20-year-old man still behaved in such a childish manner, Hulse couldn't help but smile, and in the laughter Huls asked, "Then how determined are you? You know, you are just talking, we are going to pave the way with our blood and corpses." ”

"Then you won't be the only ones who shed blood and corpses, if there is a war, I, and the first three, will voluntarily join Dima and fight against those lifeless and depraved cities!"

"If there are 4 people besides you, why are you the only ones here?"

"They said that if four people came together, it was like they had come to rob. ”

Doesn't it look like you're stealing when you're alone?" Hulse said to himself, and made a decision: "In that case, how about you take command of this war?"

"Yes!" Dofan didn't hear Hulse's words clearly, and thought that Hulse agreed to join the army, but only after a moment did he react, and there was an incredible "Huh?!"
