"Fight! We must fight! We have finally made a good living, and we want to reach out to our lifeline! And cut our fields! If we can endure this, what can't we endure!" "Ethra Vogel, who was already in very bad health, attended the meeting of the Dima nobles despite his discomfort, and roared in his gong-like voice.

As one of the few first-generation Dima nobles who are still active in the political arena today, Aislavogel's roar has attracted almost all the nobles to follow, even a few nobles who are silent are just worried about whether they can fight, but if someone wants to move the Hulse-style farmland, then it must be fought!

As the saying goes, cutting off someone's wealth is like killing your parents, and Hulse was surprised, it had been many years since he had seen these different factions of nobles work together so together.

"It seems that there is no second point of view, in fact, I also support you, after all, only the Hulse-style farmland can lead to the brave new world, and if the constraints of the fields are restricted according to the requirements of Fei Argon and Rui Ying Maiqiu, the road forward will be full of obstacles. ”

In Hulse's slow words, he showed support for the opinion of the nobles of Dima, but the nobles understood that there would definitely be a "but" behind such a statement, and more importantly, the great sage Boligu had not said a word from the beginning of the meeting until now.

The "Great Sage" Bharicus, who claimed to have attained enlightenment at the age of 10, arrived at Dima at the age of 40, and is now 53 years old, has always been known for his alternative paths, and he has often proposed some of the worst options in the eyes of everyone, but the facts have always proved that this so-called worst option is the best choice.

And the great sage has not spoken at this meeting so far, is his proposition to give in to Fei Argon and Rui Ying Mai Qiu? Now everyone is a little confused, no matter how you look at it, you can't see any benefit in giving in to the two countries.

"The Great Sage Boligu has not spoken since the beginning of the meeting, and I think he has something surprisingly to say, so let's hear what he has to say first. ”

So everyone looked at Boligu, who had been bowing his head, and now Boligu was also an old man, with silver hair and a flowing white beard, and he had the demeanor of a great sage than before.

"Before I give my opinion, I want to ask you a question," Bhariku has also raised more and more of a sage's tone over the years, "where does Dima's wealth come from?"

"Grain, grain grown in the fields!" said a nobleman, puzzled, isn't it a very obvious thing, as if Boligu were asking where the sun rises.

But Boligu shook his head: "Food is not real wealth, if there is no man, can your food be exchanged for wealth?" Without waiting for them to refute, Boligu continued, "Real wealth comes from the exchange with the outside world, we sell food to the outside world, and the outside world gives us money, and this is the source of our wealth." ”

After Boligu mentioned this, several of the nobles who were more intelligent had vaguely grasped something, of course, most of them were still confused, but the people around them were nodding their heads, and they were embarrassed to say that they didn't know.

"Let's suppose what will happen if we refuse? The worst outcome is a direct declaration of war, and the most optimistic outcome is a trade blockade and boycott, and then what is the use of having more food? If we can't sell it, we can't exchange it for money, and if we can't exchange it for money, we don't have wealth. ”

Seeing that some nobles were trying to die, Boligu continued to stab the knife: "After all these years of development, we have gathered a large number of foreign populations in Dima, and once we start a war with the outside world, what will happen to these people? Moreover, our Dima is flat, and there is no place to defend, after the war, what will happen to your fields?"

"We have developed so many fields in the wilderness that in the event of a war we must abandon them all, and all the men will retreat to the city - of course, if any nobleman is willing to die alone, of course I warmly welcome it, then our agriculture will all collapse, and do not forget that now we are no longer lone wolves wandering in the wild, we have a city, and we have only one city. ”

"After retreating into the city, such a huge population will instantly become a regular blasting array, because we have lost those fields, we can only rely on grain reserves, and how long can our grain reserves last under the siege of the army? Also, Dima does not have its own iron smelting industry, and we simply do not have enough logistics to support long-term operations, even if it is a local battle!"

Boligu's words came down, it was really a basin of cold water for the angry Dima nobles, although what was exchanged for wealth was not clear, but the latter paragraph still understood, Dima is a small city, and the grain can be sold, and other industries are not self-sufficient at all!

"So, can you only give in," the meeting ended with the sighs of the nobles after seeing both Boligu and Huls nod, leaving only Boligu's "I will definitely negotiate an agreement that satisfies you."

However, there was another small meeting in the evening, and this time only a few of the big nobles with high IQ in Huls, Boligu, and Dima nobles undoubtedly learned the stupid thing that some nobles had leaked the news from the last time.

"There is a saying in the divine realm, it is called a child holding gold in the downtown area, you should have heard of it, and today you have seen it, it is what happened to us," In this small meeting, Boligu was not as gentle as in the morning, and his words were full of murder.

"So I want to ask you, do you just endure it, or do you want revenge? Don't be in a hurry to answer, because this revenge must not be visible to those who are already dying, and revenge may not start until about twenty years later, and if you count the time when it is completed, you are long gone, so it is better to think more about your children and grandchildren. ”

"Just endure like this, it will not be as prosperous as in previous years, the established Grace Academy will be demolished, the expanded Dima Academy will also be built, and the high-level tutors recruited can only be let go, but the children and grandchildren can continue to live, not as bad as it was at the beginning, but it will not be much better, if you agree to do this, please raise your left hand. ”

Piecemeal, 2 of the nobles raised their left hands, and when they saw the angry eyes from the left and right, they couldn't help but shrink their heads, but they still held their left hands firmly: "The descendants are not successful, you have to get by." ”

"The other way is that we will take a more dangerous path than in the past, to build Dima into a war center, a war machine that can challenge one, two, three or even four countries with a city, and if you succeed, you will master a great empire that has gone through the ages, and if you fail, you will have to die with your whole family, and raise your right hand in agreement. ”

There are more people who raised their hands this time, in the final analysis, after this group of people was sent by Hulse thirty-four years ago, they did not choose to accept punishment honestly, but simply followed Hulse in a fit of anger, you can know what the character of this group of people is, and they are really angry now.

Of course, what is more important is the sentence, "children hold gold in the downtown area", these people are more worried about whether their descendants can keep their wealth?

The lesson of someone's alchemy magic, when the two countries signed a contract with Dima this time, they would definitely solemnly mark that they were not allowed to leak it to unrelated personnel, so that the Herse-style farmland would really only be in the hands of a few big nobles.

In this case, is it not difficult to guess whether the nobles who have not acquired the Hulse-style farming technology choose to seize the secret from a few big nobles who hold the highest power in the state, or choose to seize the secret from the likes of Dima? Even if Dima has Hulse's protection, how long Hulse can protect him?

Out of this tension, most of the nobles raised their right hands, and as a result, more people raised their right hands than those who did not, and the path was determined.

Huls then summons the devil and swears to all the nobles that even those who disagree or are neutral will not be allowed to leak their secrets, even if they are unwilling to follow this path.

"The collateral is my soul, and if so, what punishment will be given to those nobles who leak secrets," Hulse asked, making the nobles who did not raise their right hand tremble.

The devil summoned by Hulse was the oldest devil hell messenger, and he let out an evil smile and said something that frightened the nobles: "Anyone who has blood relatives will enter hell and be tortured for eternity, after all, this is the first immortal epic in the mortal world." ”

After the treaty was signed, the messenger of hell disappeared into the summoning array, and did not glance at the thoughtful Boligu from beginning to end, Boligu always felt that there was some connection with the messenger of hell, it seemed to be a connection from Dante, but why was there no clear memory in Dante's memory fragments?

After vowing to rebel against the Philippines and Raying-Maichiu, Hulse did not immediately take action, and now it was imperative that Boligu negotiate the Hers-style farmland issue with the envoys of the two countries.

"Anyway, our Dima is also a city belonging to Siber, and Sibber is a vassal state of Philippine argon, so we are also willing to hand over the Huls-style farmland technology, but the value of the Hulse-type farmland technology is so great The two respected envoys don't know, so should the two countries buy something with something?"

"As long as Lord Hulse is willing to give us Hulse-style farmland technology, then at any cost, our two countries will still try their best to satisfy Lord Huls. ”

Looking at the envoys of the two countries who were like a family in front of him, Boligu sneered in his heart, Don't think that I don't know why you have such a good relationship, so you have to come to the door together.

It's nothing more than that, Fei Argon is worried that if he persecutes Dima too much, he will force Dima to Ruiying Maiqiu, so Fei Argon will hurt his eggs, so it is better to act together and make a fortune together, anyway, Fei Argon and Ruiying Maiqiu have not fought for hundreds of years (what? Second Siber War? Wasn't that a decision made by Sydney itself?), and the relationship can still be said.

A war of words ensued, culminating in the Tima Agreement of 2418, which solved the problem of Hulse-style farmland technology.

The agreement stipulates that Dima should transfer Hers-style farmland technology to the two countries of Philippines and Ruiyingmaiqiu, and in order to reduce the possibility of leakage, Dima needs to restrict the lords from cultivating new fields, so that the fields only need to meet the existing population of Dima.

In return for Dima's voluntary transfer of Hulse-style farmland technology, Dima's goods other than grain will be sold in Sydney and Sima without customs duties, and the cities will not be allowed to tax the business practices of Dima merchants, and Philippine and Siber have also promised not to ask Dima to transfer technology.
