Regardless of what the four of them thought about the so-called Innovation Society, this group, which would soon affect the direction of the Empire, was officially established in a private room in the Cicissai Palace in the City of Angry Waves.

Detective Meteor was also unanimously elected as the first administrator of the Innovation Society, and the prime minister of all affairs of the society. Viscount Iscolan was in charge of intelligence, security; Member Ebur is responsible for the Society's funding and finances; Mrs. Mihil is in charge of publicity, organization.

Then Karina was developed into a member of the innovative society on the spot, and then promoted to a senior backbone and served as the secret chief of the society.

Luke gave the Society its first mission: to develop its membership ...... In the face of all strata of the Angry Waves City, a carpet propaganda bombardment with no dead ends was implemented. Let all the citizens of Nutao City know the concept of the Innovation Society, and know that the Innovation Society represents the latest trend of thought and is the vane of the trend of the times.

Founded the Writers' Association, the Dancers' Association, the Painters' Association, the Tea Art Association, the Flower Arrangement Association, and the Sports Association...... Organize all the people involved in the arts. Give them money and let them drive the overall cultural cultivation of Angry Waves City.

In order to give the citizens of the city time to devote themselves to these hobbies, Luke asked Councillor Ibur to take the initiative to reduce the working hours of the workers he hired.

The working hours must not exceed ten hours per day, and workers must be given one day off each week. At the same time, the wages of workers are increased, and the welfare of workers is increased.

Upon hearing this request, Councillor Ibur was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that the first knife after the establishment of the Reform Society would be cut on his head.

"Inspector, the workers in my factory can't complete orders for fourteen hours a day. Let them only work 10 hours, and have one day off a week, how can I run this factory? And let them work less, why pay them more.

Detective, I'm my own person! ”

Luke said to the pleading Ibur, "If you tell your workers that they can finish fourteen hours of work in ten hours with quality and quantity, and let them leave work early, they will find a way to finish the day in ten hours." It is better to use time to squeeze the labor of workers than to let them take the initiative to find ways to improve the production process. The same screws, with the right methods and tools, can be more than 10 times faster.

Our Innovation Club needs a large number of people who have extra time to participate in the leisure activities we organize. They also need to have more money to invest in these leisure activities.

Don't worry about your workers having money, as long as we can drive all the factories in Raging Waves to work fewer hours and pay their workers more. And then you'll find out that the money goes around in a circle elsewhere and goes back into your pocket. ”

"Really?" MP Ibur was skeptical.

"If you give more money to your workers and guide them to spend, they won't put the money away," Luke said. You give them time after work, and you entice them to have hobbies, and they'll be willing to spend their money on hobbies.

Parliamentarians, wealth will only accumulate more and more when it is circulated. If your workers can't afford the cars you build, the existing market will be saturated in a few years. ”

Councillor Iber said thoughtfully: "What you said is very reasonable, but I still don't understand. ”

"Then find out through experimentation. If you are not at ease, you can use a factory as a pilot. As long as you learn to squeeze the mental power of your workers, you will find that it is far more profitable than squeezing their physical strength. ”

"Okay......" Councilor Ibur felt that the Inspector slashed at him for the first time, and he could only endure the pain first. First use a factory to test whether what the inspector said is right, and then use the facts to speak.

Luke continued to lay out several major actions for the future of the Innovation Society, and forcibly pushed them all forward, regardless of whether the three executors could understand it or not.

He has stepped into this whirlpool, and whether he wants to or not, he can only go down with this small team of freshmen. This time, their battle with the old system of Angry Waves City seems to be at the level of money, but no matter how much they benefit in terms of money, it is only a temporary advantage.

Behind the old system of Angry Waves is the entire new aristocratic force, and they can be defeated once, twice, or even more times, without damaging their foundations. They only need to win once to get back everything they have lost before.

The Innovation Society seems to be very strong now, but Viscount Iscoran went to the imperial capital this time, and he did not get any substantial royal support at all. As long as his people can't withstand the attack of the new nobles, the emperor guarantees that turning his face faster than turning a book.

At this time, he and the eldest princess formed a tacit understanding, and this tacit understanding was based on the resources in his hands.

As long as she has money in one hand and power in the other, the eldest princess will recognize this meteorite detective.

Luke's founding of the Reform Society, and his aggressive pursuit of the policies he instituted, was to elevate a simple struggle of monetary interests to an ideological one.

To deal with these new aristocrats who started out in industry and commerce, I have a whole book of Capital.

At the end of the first meeting of the Innovation Society, Luke planted the seeds according to his own ideas, and it would take some time for them to sprout, blossom, and bear fruit.

The struggle against the new aristocracy, and even the royal family, has only just begun.

Luke left the Palace of Sicissey and returned to Cape, and as soon as he entered the door of the Secret Service, he was told that Madame Tassia had found and brought the man he wanted.

They were at the Einsatzgruppen headquarters.

"Go to the Einsatzgruppen......" Luke turned and got back into the car, and the convoy sped towards the Einsatzgruppen headquarters.

Under the leadership of Shelley, the Hakubo District Intelligence Bureau Special Task Force conducts closed militarized training. The staff was reduced to 1,000 men, and the equipment was exceptionally well-equipped because of the ample funds and the assistance of the Diagonal Street. Basically, it can be motorized for all personnel, and it is equipped with more than 50 war machines and other war equipment.

By the time Luke arrived at the Einsatzgruppen headquarters, the former gang members were no longer in a hanging. Although the combat effectiveness has not improved much, the military appearance is very serious.

The Black Mamba's gun stuck in his leg is not just pretty.

Luke met Lady Tassia inside the castle and the people she had brought with him......

It's the troll, Laconia.

Luke told everyone to go out and meet the old troll alone in a closed room.

Lagonia sat in an iron chair fixed to the floor tiles, with steel shackles on her hands and feet. His towering body sits in a human-standard chair, like a strong human man sitting in a child's chair.

His knees were high, and his buttocks were below his knees, as if he was squatting there, which was very funny.

Luke sat across from Laconia, observing the legendary troll. His expression was not as irascible as that of ordinary trolls, and he was quiet and had the characteristic Sven of a scholar.

Laconia is an outlier among the trolls, originally the heir of a tribe of trolls, and his noble birth allowed him to live a pampered life. He is very fond of civilized society, and often even expresses his desire to bring civilization into his tribe.

But the trolls are resistant to change, and they are accustomed to the timeless rules of the tribe, and live a life of fishing and hunting in their territory. Working during the day, singing songs handed down by ancestors around the fire at night, drawing strength from the spirit of the ancestors.

Later, after losing the battle for the tribal leader, Laconia was relegated to slavery and sold to other troll tribes, before meeting a mentor who would change his life.

Archibald Darnell is a well-known scholar of the history of trolls, and while traveling through the troll colony, he discovers a special Laconia. He bought Laconia to be his guide, and later adopted him as his disciple.

Later, Archibald Darnell contracted the swamp plague and died unexpectedly. Laconia takes up the mantle of the Mentor and continues to uncover the history of trolls.

Laconia is the only troll to earn a Ph.D., and he has deciphered many ancient scripts by studying the history of trolls, and can even use some of the power of ancient languages to become a six-star powerhouse.

Of course, Luke dared to let Lady Tasia capture Laconia, which meant that he had not yet gained the power he would gain later.

"Who are you? What is this place? Laconia could see that Luke was the head of the place, and seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, she took the initiative to ask questions.

Luke said, "Hello, Dr. Lagonia, I'm sorry to have you here in this way. This is the secret intelligence bureau of the Cape District of the Golden Shield Empire's Raging Waves City, and I am Detective Meteorite. I can untie your shackles and hope you don't act impulsively. ”

Not knowing how he got into trouble with the Golden Shield Empire's secret intelligence, Laconia said, "I vouch in the name of my mentor Archibald Darnell that I will not do anything dangerous. ”

Luke unleashed the gluttony from the back of his hand, and it flew to Laconia's side, nimbly unshackling the four shackles with the dragon's claws. Then flew back to Luke's hand, imprinted on the back of his hand.

Laconia moved her wrist.

Although he was curious about what the dragon-like creature was just now, he couldn't help but ask.

"Detective Meteor, I think there must have been some misunderstanding between us. I'm just an ordinary scholar studying the history of trolls, which is also very unpopular. I didn't do anything to endanger the security of the Golden Shield Empire, and I only came to the empire three times. ”

Luke saw Laconia sitting honestly and said, "I've invited you to Angry Waves this time because I'm very interested in the history of trolls...... And for some reason, I've gained a portion of my troll blood. ”

"You have troll blood?" Seeing Luke's disbelief, Laconia sniffed the scent and said in surprise, "Swinburne Barry Snake...... That 'dragon' just now was conjured up by the Swinburn Barry Snake! Your bloodline was obtained through arcane arts?

How is this possible? ”

Luke smiled and said, "In front of the secret arts, nothing is impossible. The Mandel Jungle Trolls can gain the power of the Swinburn Barry Serpent through the Sacrifice, and I can also change the Ritual to obtain the Secret Word that I can use. After all...... The secret art originated from the sacrificial ......"

Lagonia could only accept this somewhat ridiculous secret technique: "Okay...... But what does this have to do with me? I'm aware of many of the troll's sacrifices, but I've never thought of refining them into secret arts that can be used by humans. ”

"I just said that I am very interested in the history of trolls, and you are the troll who knows the history of trolls best in this world, and I have some questions that I hope you can answer truthfully."

Laconia looked at Luke for a moment and said, "Okay, you ask...... Hopefully, at the end of this Q&A, I will be free. ”

"Hopefully I can get what I want from you. The history of trolls can be traced back to ancient civilizations, and your ancestors have a lot of overlap with the five ancient civilizations. May I ask if the trolls have acquired an ancient language in the history and passed down to the present. ”

In his own professional field, Lagonia replied happily: "This is public information, trolls had a very magnificent period in the ancient civilization era, because they have obtained a part of the inheritance of ancient languages, and created a group of trolls comparable to gods.

However, the ancient civilization pursued the extreme of individual power excessively, and the learning of ancient languages was extremely difficult, so a great war caused the collective decline of ancient civilizations, and the ancient languages were lost.

The songs of the troll tribes are remnants of ancient languages, which give trolls power, but nowhere near as good as true ancient languages. All five ancient civilizations have now reconstructed ancient languages with minor success by collecting troll songs.

If you're interested in ancient languages, Inspector, it's more effective for you to go to five ancient civilizations than to catch me. ”

Luke said with a smile: "I didn't 'invite' you to listen to these public information, but to tell me some information that is not public. As a troll scholar, you must have some unique insights into the inheritance of ancient languages among the troll race, right? ”

Luke's words made Lagonia nervous, and he even showed a slight offensive stance. But when he saw the dragon that Swinburn Barry had turned into jump out of the back of Detective Meteor's hand and demonstrate to himself, he immediately dismissed all thoughts of violence.

"Detective, I don't understand what you mean. I'm just a very ordinary scholar and haven't studied ancient languages. ”

"Ancient languages are part of the history of trolls. You say you haven't studied ancient languages, do you think I believe it?

Dr. Laconia, don't be scheming in front of me. I know many, many things about you, and you have no secrets in front of me except the knowledge in your head. Tell me what I want to know so that this conversation can end happily. ”

"What will you do to me?"

In the face of the infamous Golden Shield Empire's secret intelligence bureau, Dr. Laconia is very weak-hearted.

Luke said, "As long as you cooperate, I won't hurt you." And if the information you have given me satisfies me, I can share with you some of what I have about ancient languages. ”

As he spoke, Luke was playing with his fingers. Gluttony is like a spoiled kitten, actively rubbing his fingers with his horns and neck, and making a comfortable purr.

Laconia looked at the strange Swinburn Barry snake thoughtfully.
