Pouring a book of snow thorn tea and putting it in his father's hand, Hiko looked at the steel arm that he threw away on the ground, and said with some pity. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"You've wasted another twenty kindlers, in other words, you've taken me one step further away from my manor dreams. Daddy, can't you be a little thrifty? Even if you're not satisfied, don't waste it like this, isn't it good to go back to the furnace and rebuild it? ”

Picked up the teacup at hand and drank a large sip of refreshing hot tea. Daddy pouted at Hikoko and said.

"Don't tell me about your daydream, stinky boy. If I knew you would envy those idiot aristocrats, I wouldn't have taken you to those coastal cities. ”

"That's not envy, that's jealousy. It's just a group of idiots whose brains are not big enough for walnuts, who can live in such a big house, and are surrounded by a group of beautiful maids all day long. There was also a large group of doglegs for him to drive. Anyone who can crush such an idiot in IQ will be jealous of everything he has. This kind of person should be completely knocked to the ground by the people, and then the glossy skin on his body should be stripped away, so that everyone can see his ugly and stupid nature. In the end, let him watch in snot and tears, as everything he has is divided and occupied by the people. But he could only roll in the mud while crying and calling his mother. ”

Hearing his father say this, Hiko immediately began to complain about the nobles he saw with disdain. As for Hiko's words, Daddy just took two puffs with his pipe in his mouth, and then retorted.

"You want to make the peasants rebel? Those guys who can only hold the pitchfork are the most right, and they can only deal with some goblins that run into their vegetable fields, and they can't even deal with a wild boar, and they want to make those idiot nobles rebel, and it will be impossible in another hundred years. ”

"I know what the hell a peasant rebellion looks like, so I don't expect anything from those mud-legged people. They just had to wait in line honestly and wait to divide up the property of the nobles. The overthrow of the aristocracy must still require a heroic figure and a large number of people with lofty ideals to achieve brilliant results. ”

Raising his eyebrows, Hiko said this as he posed as he looked like he was holding a chi-bead. It was as if he had invisibly pushed for a great war to overthrow the ruling class of the aristocracy. And his statement aroused Dad's interest, anyway, now the business at hand is almost done, and Dad doesn't mind drinking tea while chatting with him.

"So. Stinky boy. What kind of person do you think qualifies as a person with lofty ideals?"

"Those who are dissatisfied with the aristocratic ruling class, merchants with a lot of capital, mercenaries and adventurers with fighting power, and people who are depressed and unable to display their talents under the influence of the aristocratic class. These are what I call people with lofty ideals. Only by uniting these people can we overthrow this solidified aristocracy with the most powerful gesture. ”

It's more or less a guy who is a man of two lifetimes, and the experience, knowledge, and experience are there, all of which make Hiko's statement full of a kind of feasibility. If you are just an ordinary person, you may think that what Yan said is just fragile nonsense, but Daddy, who has traveled the whole world and has a deep understanding of the nature of this world, has found that this is not something that is not impossible.

As a result, he became even more interested in this kind of chat between father and son.

"Sounds good, but I still don't get it. How can you bring these people together. You know, there's no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to overthrow an inherent class, you must go through a bloody struggle in reality. And this kind of struggle, in the final analysis, is about capital and human life. It's not a tricky game, and not everyone is willing to work hard for your ideas. ”

"They're not working for my ideas, they're working for their future. It's like the era of the rise of humanity, which was made under the overthrow of the rule of the ancient elven empire. Don't tell me that they are fighting for their lives with elves who wield powerful magic for some great sense of mission and the freedom of all mankind. I've read the ancient documents left by my mother, and the ratio of human and elf casualties in that war was 200 to 1, and bulldozing a city ruled by elves would cost at least tens of thousands of casualties. Even if there were many human beings at that time, it would not have been possible to sacrifice this level for the sake of only one ideal. ”

Picking the corners of his mouth, Hiko rolled his eyes and said. The scorn for history was vividly expressed by him. And for this look, Dad shook his shoulders indifferently and said.

"Why, have you denied even the grand epic that the Human Empire has sung for nearly a thousand years? If the current emperor of the empire knows about this kind of thing, be careful that he orders the garrisons on the border to come with a large army to arrest you and go back to ask for your guilt. ”

"Don't be funny, his ancestors couldn't have taken a step into the Arest Ice Fields more than a thousand years ago, let alone his current incompetent descendants. Moreover, I think that he is in the mood to care about me, a reactionary speechman, and it is better to worry more about the internal affairs and the army, and the province will be bitten off two more bites of meat from the border by the forces of the kingdom. ”

What a poor emperor, even the children of the wilderness can mock him at will, I really don't know what it means for him to live like this. ”

With a sigh, Daddy sighed at the Emperor's current situation. Hearing this, Hiko became strange.

"Daddy, listen to your tone as if you know this waste emperor. ”

"When I traveled the world with your mother, I had some encounter with him as a prince. It's just that after so many years, our relationship is almost broken. ”

Dad looks like the past is unbearable, and to this, Hiko's answer is.

"Whew, I guess it's pretty much the same. Otherwise, after all, he is an emperor, and if the relationship is better, it is not a matter of being a nobleman. ”

Habitually slapping Hiko on the back of the head, Daddy laughed and said to him.

"Don't do this kind of daydreaming, let's honestly talk to me about this kind of thing. You've just given the example of the establishment of an empire more than a thousand years ago, and you've made it clear what that means. ”

"Hey, that's a hassle. I don't want to talk about this kind of thing. ”

Touching the back of his head, which still had residual pain, Yan hung a dead fish eye, and said in a tone that he was too lazy to speak. But as soon as he saw that the old man raised his hand again, he immediately turned over and came back to life again.

"In the final analysis, it is actually a matter of interests. I think the emperor at that time must have promised to kill and rob them all, and whoever rushed in first would be the one who made such demagogic words. The Elven Empire has lasted for nearly 10,000 years, and the wealth it has is simply not something that humans who have always been slaves can imagine. In this kind of world where people dare to play with their lives for the sake of profit, who cares about so many casualties. As long as there is a slight chance of success, these guys will rush forward one after another, without stopping at all. And the more people who die, the more they can carve up. This kind of good thing everyone wants to encounter, as long as it is not themselves who die. ”

"And for those who have aspirations, I can play the same way. Just give them the wealth of the nobles, and think about what they will do for these things that they usually don't dare to think of, and who may not have seen in their lives. And if I can show them the way, even if it just looks like it, they won't rush up like mad dogs?"

Hiko's words were as simple as playing a game, but Daddy looked at him in amazement as if he were looking at a sea monster. This kind of thing, without a certain amount of insight and ideas, can't be said at all, even the father himself doesn't think that he can think of this kind of thing that drives others and nobles to do it before listening to Yan's words. So he asked Hiko, surprised.

"You came up with all these things yourself?"

"Nonsense, do you think you can teach me this kind of thing?" retorted with a roll of his eyes and a look of helplessness. He couldn't tell his father that he had summed up the experience of countless revolutionary histories.

And the more he pretended to be like this, the more amazed Daddy became. He moved a chair and sat down in front of Hiko.

"The aristocracy is the ruling class, not by one or two idiots. Most of them have experienced wars and murky power struggles. In terms of outwit and force, they were far superior to the lower classes they ruled. Even if you can unite those who have lofty ideals, how can you be sure that they will defeat those nobles?"

"If you have resourcefulness, if you have strong force, if you can fight with one enemy, if you can't, it's all in vain. As long as you expand your power indefinitely, you can drown all your enemies like a tidal wave. What bullshit aristocracy, before the vast sea of people, they only have the share of trembling. ”

"How, then, do you ensure the loyalty of these men, knowing that they are, after all, a troop of profit-gatherers, and how can you be sure that they will not betray you and kill each other because of the enemy's bribes?"

Daddy thought about it and thought about it, and then found such a problem from Hiko's point of view. Hearing this, Hiko replied with a dead fish eye.

In the final analysis, I am taking the route of a sea of miscellaneous soldiers, and except for a few elites, most of them can only be regarded as mud legs. I just need to guarantee the loyalty of a group of elites, and he can buy those mud legs as much as he likes. And, don't forget, what I offer is land, wealth, all the net worth of these nobles. No matter how much they can be bribed, they can still use their entire wealth to do such a thing?"

"And what if the enemy besieges you before you develop?"

"Stupid, why should you be discovered. Find one or two idiot aristocrats, pay some money and send some treasures, and let them help cover for themselves. Develop yourself honestly under their protection. When the strength comes, do you still care about the siege?"

"So what if the power is huge and the tail is too big?"

"There are no immortals in war, and whoever bothers will let whoever fights the most difficult battle just do it!"

Father and son asked and answered, as if they were some kind of grand conspirator plotting to overthrow the rule of the aristocracy. But in fact, this is just a very boring chatter behavior for Hiko, and after getting tired of talking, he yawned and went back to his bed to make up for it, not taking these things to heart at all. But Daddy is different.

He hesitated for a long time before he walked into his bedroom alone and wrote with a pen he hadn't touched for years.

"My dear friend, I learned in my hometown about the predicament you find yourself in. So, I'd like to give you a little bit of advice. ”

A letter was sent, and for the already waning empire, a great storm was coming.
