Chapter 374 Whistleblowing is not just a shameful act, but a deep plot
People live a lifetime, and they will have a lot of desires. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I want more money, an endless amount of money for me to splurge, to buy things that I always wanted to buy but didn't buy and knew I would never buy in my life.
I want more girls, all kinds of girls, all kinds of girls, not only eye-catching, but also exercise.
I want a higher social status, wine and wealth, when the wind and clouds are rising, and when I enter the country, I want to be blue.
I want .......
Everyone has endless desires and countless pursuits, and Wren also has his own pursuits, and he wants to become a more powerful person.
There are many definitions of being powerful, for example, being rich is also a form of strength. Since its birth, money has been accompanied by depravity and ugliness. The first person to initiate privatization probably wouldn't have imagined that his whimsical whimsy would eventually turn utopia into a flash in the pan and appear only in people's dreams.
For example, personal force is also a kind of strength. Powerful force, strong body, in the face of injustice and grievances, can draw the sword in anger, remove all the injustices in the world, and let all those who try to bend their waist disappear.
However, neither of these points is Wren's pursuit, Wren's pursuit is greater power.
Power is a terrible force, a power that is so strong that it is superior to wealth and force. Prominent figures, such as Sarcomo, also fell to their knees in power. Those who excelled in force, such as Jasmine, also fell under Wren's monstrous power.
It's just that from now on, his power is not strong enough, and his status is not high enough. Not to mention the Empress Pars, the owner of the empire, the other golden nobles alone can make Wren have to give in when necessary, and the leaders of those noble groups are enough to make Wren avoid it. He still has a long way to go on the path of power.
In his previous life, he thought that he was superior to everyone else, and as a result, he was excluded to become a glorious office newspaper reader. spent the best ten years of his life in the idle department. Beneath his calm exterior was an uncontrollable rage like a volcanic eruption! He had sworn that if one day he could ride the wind, he would let those people know what they had done and what kind of revenge they would bring.
But it's a pity that he didn't have this opportunity, he came to this world and became a glorious golden nobleman.
Having crossed over, it can also be seen as dying once, and his mentality has changed dramatically. If before, he just wanted to prove that his ability was not weaker than others, and that he could do better than others, hoping to be recognized by more people. So here, he wants more than that, he wants the throne high up.
It's all a game, a real game. He has nothing, and his wife and children have become a waste. If he has nothing, how can he be afraid of losing anything?
Whether it was in Ortlenburg or now in Demalagurg, everything he did and everything he did was a preparation for a charge to that position.
He is like the best cheetah in the animal world on TV, quietly lurking on the edge of a pool called profit, quietly waiting for the moment when those prey bow their heads and relax their vigilance, and sweep them away one by one.
After the call, Wren had a playful smile on his face, rubbing the copper ring on his index finger, his eyes fixed on the runes, but his attention was not there.
Gahel was successfully murdered, and his murderers were subject to the harshest criminal penalties to make him understand what he had done. Swept away all the obstacles in Demaragune, but also showed his fierce and violent side. He can now say that he is already the first person De Malagu deserves. He did the same, giving himself the title of Acting Governor, after all, the Empress's envoy and distorted improvised arbitrariness were enough for him to do so.
As for ventilating with Empress Pars, I'll talk about it when I return to the imperial capital.
He wasn't going to spend a few months or a year or two in Demalaghu, a place where birds don't lay eggs is too poor. He had a way to make it rich, but he had no reason to do so. He did a good job, others came to pick peaches, and he was not a fool and a selfless person, and it was impossible for him to provide convenience for others. What's more, in his opinion, the people here are not like when he first arrived in Ortlenburg, and he urgently needs to change.
The people here are filled with an emotion called numbness, and it is their life that they can't die, they don't starve. Instead of toiling every day, the governor would arrange for them to have enough food to survive a month. There was no need to worry about wealth, for the governor would often give a short job to those who needed it. Combined with the fact that you can hunt all summer in exchange for money, and the monotonous and backward level of consumption in the city, money is not as important as it was in the south.
It is a province that is dying, and it is not their bodies that are dying, but their will, their souls.
The first order issued by Wren was that no person, any organization or institution should be allowed to provide any assistance to the Sistine smuggling syndicate under any circumstances. If anyone knows about the situation of the Sistine and the smuggling syndicate and conceals it and fails to report it, he will be found to be an accomplice to the smuggling syndicate and will be convicted of treason. In order to make this group of people who are already insensitive, a little reward is also offered.
The stimulus of money is often the biggest motivation for these poor people living at the bottom of society.
In any case where Sistine information is provided and it is true, Wren will give a silver coin to a gold coin depending on the importance of the information. If he can cooperate with Wren to wipe out the Sistin group, then it will be a hundred gold coins, and a bright future - immigration to Ortlenburg.
If this bounty is normal, then the next bounty will leave a very ...... in history Outstanding feats. Although later scholars who studied history believed that this was a kind of historical regression and the annihilation of human nature, it is undeniable that this reward has played a very important role in history countless times - the whistleblower order!
To put it simply, it is a kind of decree that exposes possible connections between other people and the Sistin, and thus receives a reward, and to put it bluntly, encourages people to whistleblow, encourages everyone to isolate themselves.
This is a policy that distorts human nature, whether it is the first female emperor of another world, or the first grassroots emperor who is serious, such a policy has been used, and it has also played the role they need.
Wren didn't feel the slightest guilt about this, what did he do?
He's the second-in-command of the Imperial Ministry of State Security, the de facto helmsman, and that's what he's supposed to do!
In Uvel, another city closest to the border, Sistine, dressed as an old peasant, looked out the window at the "most prosperous" street, where eleven residents of the city were kneeling with their hands tied behind their backs. Behind them stood the executioner, who was wiping his shiny sword. This is the third group of "prisoners" to be beheaded for treason since Wren issued the denunciation order. In addition to this, there was a large number of exiles and prison sentences, and the number of people affected was already as high as thousands.
These people have more or less something to do with Sistine. For example, he once provided some information to the Sistin men who remained in the city, or served the Sistin smuggling caravan for a short time. Anyway, anyone who has ever interacted with the Sistine smuggling syndicate has become a victim of the whistleblower order.
Wren settled all the promises very happily, and after a large amount of money was scattered, he chose one or two typical ones, which was like a nursing home, and it boiled in an instant.
In the past, people could talk with each other on the side of the road, and they were full of care and friendliness to each other. Now, this situation is almost completely extinct, and people look at each other with deep suspicion and jealousy, and they have become the best informants in groups. Everyone is extremely vigilant and suspicious of the people who walk by them, and the distrust makes everyone in Demalagu appear an invisible but real wall, completely isolating themselves from the outside world.
The sword swung and the blade shimmered in the sunlight with a palpitating chill, and a head gurgled and rolled to the ground, internal pressure forcing blood to gush out of the broken veins, staining the beginning of summer with a terrifying layer of blood.
There was no cheering, no crying, and the onlookers looked indifferently at the demeanor of the others around them. If someone shows sadness, then they will inevitably become the target of the accusation. Because they are sad and sad, it is possible that they have a relationship with these people, and they may have a connection with the Sistine.
Eleven heads, representing eleven whistleblowers who have gained a lot of wealth and even a bright future, have also inspired more people to join the whistleblower team.
Sistin put down his glass and sighed softly, "This big man is even tougher than I thought, he punched us in the key!"
Sitting across from him was the think tank of the smuggling syndicate, and also the think tank of a certain big man in the imperial capital. The forty-year-old scholar's face was also extremely ugly, he snorted angrily, and there was a kind of indignation burning in his narrowed eyes, "It's too much, it's really too much!"
His views on the whistleblower order are more profound than those of the Sistine, and this style and method of dealing with things means that Wren will become the enemy of those who come after him.
It's just that his angry snort and the anger in his eyes can't hide his jealousy and fear.
Clearly, he was aware of the very possibility of failure and consequences for himself, as well as for the Sistine and others!
