Crowds were gathering in the streets, and National Guardsmen from other states were heavily armed and ready to wait, riot shields neatly stretched along the streets, guiding the crowds forward like water. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The movement of the info crowd was accompanied by loud protests, persuasions, and the workers wanted the members of the Guards, who were also affected by the economic crisis and whose salaries had been reduced, to join the demonstration, with the simple slogan of "work", "no layoffs, no pay cuts". As the demonstrators drew closer to the newly built presidential palace, more and more citizens joined in, but the sound of slogans remained unaffected by hunger and cold. Faced with the prospect of getting out of control at any moment, the guards deployed heavy weapons and trucks with more team members across the middle of the street, blocking the marching crowd from crossing a block to the presidential palace there. Although the presidential palace had been secretly evacuated to empty due to the state of emergency in the entire city, it was an outward symbol of the supreme power system of the United States, and it was a target that the guards had to defend.

In the public foundation committee's estate, President-elect Faulklin and incumbent President Havre, whose term will end in a few days, are in the conference room. The quarrel that erupted in the committee seemed to have nothing to do with the two men, one smoking a cigar without stress and spitting out smoke rings in boredom, while the other sat in a wheelchair, taking off his glasses and scrutinizing his palmprints, apparently killing time. Arguing doesn't solve the problem, but why quarrel, the smile on Faulklin's lips is actually ridicule. It is not only these commissioners who deserve ridicule, but also their predecessors. Havre wasn't a good guy on the Board of Commons, and he knew how he could have been nominated by the committee as a candidate four years ago, and then became president after singing and playing with his rivals. During the presidency, the plans and decisions of the Public Foundation Committee were translated into policies to the letter, and Havre was a good mouthpiece, but by no means a wise leader, and as a result, the development index of the United States continued to decline until it became negative. Havre's bold promise has become a youthful joke, and perhaps Havre is mocking his pretty bearded beard in the marching slogans that flutter in the streets of the city. Faulklin was waiting for an opportunity, and when it came, the loud and loud people in the room should be exhausted, and he would present a very complex and complete report. He had to tell the commissioners what he was saying, because he could no longer do so.

Faulklin raised and lowered his legs slightly, if he hadn't been there, he would have done a small amount of activity as the doctor had instructed, these servile companions, who had been more conservative since they had been in direct contact with the Juggernaut more than twenty years ago, and Bonth, if he were still alive, would probably be angry that the results of his efforts had been wasted. In that year, the new President Bonthe, once again deliberately disguised himself on the way to secretly travel, took the warship Virgil, and arrived at the famous Devil's Vortex in accordance with the requirements and instructions of the Dominator, and was taken away from the warship by the Dominator alone. It took seventy hours of disappearance before he was returned to the Virgil warship. It was during that disappearance that Bunt brought back a conversation with the Juggernaut and even the result of negotiations, and the Public Foundation Committee was treated with considerable respect, and it was then that the members of the Committee learned more about the Juggernaut and confirmed many of the speculations about the Juggernaut in the past. It can be said that some secret boxes have been opened, but they know that there are many more boxes containing secrets. For example, many of the schemes and technologies brought back, not to mention the United States, even any earthling, I am afraid that they are magical and mysterious. However, it is clear that some of the things in the plan that are not detailed enough are used to the effect of being very bad. For example, it triggered a march in the city.

Faulklin cleared his throat and clapped his hands to get the attention of others, and he thought it was time to speak. He raised a thick handwritten report in his hand and began to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, before I became what I am today, I began to study many problems in society, and some of them were even more attractive to me than rugby was for me. I sometimes forget about my intense training sessions and bury my head in research. Gentlemen, don't you find that there is a paradoxical rule implicit in the scheme itself? This odd-sounding statement caught everyone's attention, and Havre put aside the idea of lighting a cigar again to see what the former football star, now Mr. President-elect, had to say. Faulklin came from a family of committees, and although he was not the biological son of Mr. Faulklin Sr., he inherited the old Faulklin's commissioner and was elected by the committee to succeed Havre after twenty years in politics. The committee members knew that in fact, respect for Faulklin was essentially respect for their own choices, not to mention that Faulklin was indeed an excellent young man, not only physically disabled and strong-willed, but also had a unique and sharp view on many issues, and could often concentrate on the crux of the problem. Faulklin told us that it was a fact that in the program set by the Dominator for the United States, the expansion of the resources of social production was increasing in production, and the multiplier of the increase was more and more considerable. However, the side effects of this are becoming increasingly apparent, and there is a serious division and opposition in the control of resources in society. The entire structure of social resource appropriation has become a huge hourglass without sand, and once the connection between the social class that holds huge resources and the class that controls a small amount of resources or even does not control them at all is broken, there will be a terrible collapse of society. Some of the committee members seemed to have understood what he said, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look in the direction of the city through the window.

The Germans didn't want to care about what the distant Emmerics were busy with, or if the Frans across the river had bread to eat, they cared about why the Rimans didn't have bread to eat. The hard queue from morning to night every day only yielded a pitiful ration of food, and the usual regular food safety checks could not be carried out because of the presence of oak seed powder in the bread. In spite of this, bread could not be supplied in normal quantities, and the madman whom the people in the cold wind were talking about when they chatted with each other was probably not necessarily insane, and he was not unreasonable. After the last time he took possession of most of Europa, not only the Emperor of the Germans, but also the ordinary Germans, believed that a strong motherland would be on the fast track, and the new earth power would no longer be the Britlesians. However, it only lasted for a few months, firstly, because I don't know why the Imperial army suddenly couldn't afford so much military spending, and secondly, the secret weapon-making technology used in the war with the Frans was mastered by the Britlesians, and the war between the two sides in Europa quickly reached a stalemate. The war between the empire and the Volos on the eastern front is still far from over, and what is even worse is that Bules and Volos reached an alliance to deal with the Germanic Empire together, at this time, the Volos army has greatly increased its combat effectiveness as if it had changed soldiers, and the main force of the empire was firmly contained on the eastern front. It was almost a big reversal, and the Germans, who were still forcing the Frans to sign a treaty not long ago, also tasted humiliation. Fei Li's frustration with the situation turned into his distrust of many people, and his relationship with Rorsted began in secret, and it ended in secret. Fei Li had planned to eliminate this ally to prevent him from forming alliances with other countries, but before he could deploy the operation, Rorsted died.

If the signing of the armistice was the beginning of humiliation, then the Germans did not know when the humiliation would end. After the signing of the agreement, all the land originally acquired by Frans through the war was returned to Frans, and a large number of Germans who had just moved into these new areas were forced to embark on a journey again, although the mood was different, but the journey was a difficult experience, and the Germans began to curse their emperor, and the smell of social instability gradually became stronger. There were, of course, other reasons that exacerbated dissatisfaction with the emperor. The agreement signed under the soldiers in the city has other contents. The war reparations were enormous, requiring Fei Lie not only to pull money out of his own pocket, but also to increase taxes in the already sluggish industries. At the behest of Ferre, Congress forced through bills to increase tax rates and types of taxes, which provoked strikes in many industries. Fei Lie was also very depressed, he didn't know why the national games of the Germanic Empire had taken a sharp turn and reached such a point. Under the huge pressure at home, Fei Lie could only retreat and pass the throne to his eldest son, while he abdicated and hid behind his back to control, at least on the surface to ease the mood of the people of the empire. However, this does not solve the real problem. In the troubled times, there were soon people who stood up against him.

After the end of the war, according to the agreement, the Germans not only had to dismantle and destroy all weapons that could be used for attack, but also had to discharge more than 10% of the military personnel, so that many veterans poured into society and became people with no occupation and no income. Some people began to quietly form secret assembly groups to discuss social issues during the weekend gatherings. Fei Lie was not unaware, but the bill passed by Congress had already aroused public outrage, and if draconian free speech controls were to be imposed, the consequences would be even worse, but he held back. In the past few years, with the exception of a crazy veteran who drank too much beer in a restaurant and was arrested and sent to prison for a few drunkards, society has been shaking year after year. What really worries Faelly about what was passed by the Diet was the Act on the Formation of Societies. As soon as the decree was issued, there was a long queue of people who went to the registration office to register overnight, and the community was like mushrooms in a wetland in foggy weather, constantly popping up. The activities of the associations also replaced the indiscriminate actions of the people, shouting slogans and slogans, which did not bode well, and Fei Lie felt that it was necessary to give some obvious hints to Congress, otherwise it would not be good for anyone to disrupt the country. Congress has been becoming more and more disobedient recently, as the founder of this country, the master of this country, the establishment of the Congress itself is a big concession, and there is a secret force quietly born in the Congress, with a strong centrifugal force to constantly put forward decrees for the emperor to continue to make concessions, is this country not the Fei Lie family? If it were in the glorious era, these centrifugal elements would have spilled blood on the streets long ago. Fei Lie thought about this question indignantly, and his attention was finally interrupted by the new queen who pushed the door in. Originally, when the war with the Volos people was armistice, the marriage between them was to ensure the sincerity of peace, but I didn't expect that Catherine, who was in her youth, became another spring breeze in Fei Li's half-hundred life. The empress came to invite the emperor to the party he presided over, and of course Fei Lie would not miss any opportunity to please the young empress, and he agreed with all his mouth.

The day after Faulin succeeded Havre as President of the United States, he invited the largest radio reporter of the United States to the Presidential Palace, where he gave a speech full of life, and the newspaper reporters were allowed to take photographs and publish the full text of the conversation in the major newspapers. The muffled voices and unpretentious promises of concrete measures to resolve the crisis easily captured the hearts of the people who thought they had been deceived over the past decade. The ranks and numbers of demonstrations are dwindling, and Faulklin's newly established public relations team in the presidential palace has regularly conducted opinion polls with major newspapers to show that the situation is improving. At the same time, Faulklin has made significant investments in public utilities in small and medium-sized cities. Many members of the Public Foundation Committee strongly opposed this measure, for the simple reason that fiscal policy in times of crisis requires more caution and patience, and the overall tendency should be more conservative and austerity, and that any large-scale investment would be the straw that would hasten the United States towards economic collapse, and that it was important to ask where would the funder countries that were going to invest such a large amount of capital go? Is it necessary to use the joint reserves? To tell the truth, none of the commissioners, including Faulin, experienced the incident of the passive use of the joint reserves, because the joint reserves had not been passively used since the day they were established, and a large number of the joint reserves were secretly stored in the form of gold, which was to be used as the last economic support of the United States. Faulin finally convinced everyone that he did not think of using the Joint Reserve, both because the Joint Reserve Committee, under the special protection of the United States Constitution, had no less than two vetoes to the President and Congress, and because Faulin was unwilling to take such a big risk.

Faulin had his own way, thanks to the timely advice of Rorsted II. Rorsted II inherited his father's great fortune as well as a title of nobility, although no one in the world today looks down on that title. The relationship between Rorsted and Falklin is not a friendship, not to mention the short time of the relationship, in the eyes of Falklin and many people, the Rorsted family is a secret. With the reform of the Public Foundation Committee following the temporary retirement of the Dominator, whoever served as President of the United States was automatically promoted to a core member of the Committee, and Faulklin was exposed to things that he had little contact with in the past. After collecting and sorting out the secret materials collected by the countless predecessors of the Public Foundation Committee, Faulklin thinks that he has spied on more, and even guesses that Rorsted may also be a test subject with a different nature from the committee members. It is highly likely that the Juggernaut also put a number of individual test units in the overall experimental plan, which is the same reason that the cowboys in the west put more than one type of livestock in their own pastures. Fortunately, the cowboys are now away for the time being, and some of the clever livestock he has cultivated are to be excellent agents of the master to manage the pasture. There are several kinds of agents, distributed in different countries, and they have existed since ancient times. Faulklin did not intend to go beyond the scope of his authority as a proxy representative, and his dealings with Rorsted had a direct purpose, such as inviting the mysterious tycoon to gradually move some of his estate from Europa to the United States. Rorsted accepted Faulcklin's suggestion and, in exchange for goodwill, gave Mr. President some advice, such as practical measures to pass on the crisis.

Rorsted easily pointed out a location on the map at the time, on the western side of the United States, across the pale blue ocean, a kingdom of islands, Penis. The rich man told Mr. President that Pannis's development had also encountered a serious bottleneck, but judging by their actions, the bottleneck was about to be broken, and their method was simple, start a war. As an island nation, in the process of trying to touch some traditional empires, Pannis tasted the sweetness and was out of control, and the uncontrollable excitement also encountered a very serious constraint, that is, resources. Modern warfare consumes a lot of resources for every charge and blow, and Pannis hardly has them. Over the past few years, Pannis has solved a lot of problems by trading with other countries such as the United States, but as the appetite for war grew, many countries began to restrict exports to Panis. Rorsted asked the president why exports to them could not be expanded. The estimate made by Faulklin and his staff finally impressed the Public Foundation Committee, and there was no suspense that it impressed the bigwigs in Congress. For a time, the whole country began to load its temporarily unused resources on ships to the other side of the ocean, and the capital returned was used to put into various public utilities in the Midwest, and the large-scale projects in full swing directly brought job opportunities, and the people who marched disappeared, after all, having a job and bread is the normal mode of life that many people imagine, Faulklin achieved initial success, and more people began to show trust in Faulklin.
