Lin Feng who has a way out in the future.

After a night's rest, the next day I went to the "Fireplace House".

The time was seven o'clock in the morning.

There are already many hurried figures on the streets of Solstice.

The breakfast shop is also almost full.

Others were in a hurry, walking and eating steaming food in their hands.

The weather in winter is very cold all year round.

These foods are hot in your hand, and when you reach your mouth, they are already at room temperature, and if you don't eat them quickly, they will freeze into ice lumps in a few minutes.

Not everyone has the power of the ice elemental like Lin Feng and Eula, and they are not afraid of the cold.

Even the stomach of the Solstice people is extremely strong in the harsh environment.

But eating ice lumps in winter still has to have diarrhea.

"The Solstice are so busy."

Eula sighed.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

In Mondstadt, except for the Knights of Favonius, who patrol the streets, and the Deer Hunter's Restaurant, which serves breakfast, are open, and most people don't wake up until nine o'clock.

"Oh, it's not thanks to the good mayor of Solstice."

Lin Feng smiled: "That old guy has formulated a high-intensity work system, go to work at eight o'clock in the morning and get off work at eight o'clock in the evening, today is a working day, everyone naturally gets up early." ”

"Eight in the morning and eight in the evening."

The corners of Eula's mouth tugged.

It's 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. in Mondstadt, with a two-hour lunch break at noon.

comparatively.

This Solstice is simply a frenzied oppression of civilians.

"Do you think it's oppression?"

Looking at Eula's expression, Lin Feng asked with a smile.

"Hmm."

"Then you are very wrong, in fact, they are all voluntary."

"Huh?"

Eula was a little confused.

With such a high-intensity work system, it is actually voluntary? Who will believe it?

"Every country has its own system."

"Mondstadt is rather loose, and Mondstadt's welfare system is so good that even those who don't have a job can live well on the annual allowance from the Knights of Favonius."

"The people of Liyue are more competitive, and they have a strong business atmosphere, and in their eyes, it is more uncomfortable to see others making money than losing money themselves, so they will voluntarily work overtime to try to make more money for themselves."

"The situation on Inazuma's side is relatively poor, the money has been surveyed and earned, and the official system is also monopolized by the family bloodline, so people live a more Buddhist life, probably the meaning of living one day at a time."

"Sumeru is more complicated, people in the desert area want to work and have nowhere to work, they can only rely on robbery and killing individuals to make a living, even giving birth to children is to continue to rob, there are ports in the rainforest area, open trade and resources, it belongs to the kind of days when you lie down and make money, even if you live a poor life for some days, it is much better than the poor people in other countries."

"But the solstice is different."

"You also saw the weather in winter."

"Not suitable for farming, animal husbandry can only raise those hardy animals, cabbage that no one eats in other countries, a few catties of meat can be exchanged for meat in the solstice, the civilians in the solstice were very miserable in the past, malnutrition is a trivial matter, some poor people may never wake up again, in order to survive, they have to try all kinds of ways to make a living."

"It's something you don't see in other countries."

"Since Puccinella came up, he has vigorously developed industrial technology in the winter, using the finished industrial products produced to exchange food with other countries for the necessities of life, and then reclaiming the tundra wasteland, using the power of the empress to improve some permafrost areas into planting areas that can barely grow crops such as potatoes, and also building and distributing housing for the common people free of charge, and establishing a welfare security system, so that those who are difficult to eat and unable to eat in the winter can also eat enough and afford housing."

"And Puccinella also promised that with him on the solstice day, then there would never be another solstice who would starve to death."

"This is also the reason why that old guy obviously likes to draw big cakes, but he has a very high reputation among the people and the army."

"He really made the people of the winter live a worry-free life."

"Because the Solstice people were really hungry, they cherish their current life, so they are willing to do such heavy work, just to protect their beautiful life now."

Speaking of this, Lin Feng paused for a moment and said, "Puccinella once said such a sentence. ”

"That phrase still hangs in the town hall."

"If a person goes down the path of sin for food, it must be the country that is guilty."

After Lin Feng finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Although I don't like Puccinera, I have to admit that this old guy's words are reasonable, and they are extremely inflammatory, which makes people have to be convinced." ”

Eula listened attentively.

When she heard Lin Feng mention what Puccinella said, her eyes also flashed with strange colors.

After Lin Feng finished sighing, she also said inexplicably: "Don't say it's those civilians, even when I hear this, I have a feeling of wanting to serve him." ”

"Now you know why Solstice's army is so aggressive, right?"

"Actually, here's why."

Lin Feng looked left and right, and said in a somewhat heavy tone: "Solstice's industry is very developed, on the other hand, planting and animal husbandry are much inferior, such a serious lame environment, so Solstice is very much in need of a fair trade status, in order to be able to obtain the right to fair trade, it must show a strong enough fist to Quan Teyvat." ”

"At a time when the rest of the country was immersed in a peaceful environment, Solstice quietly completed the transformation, recruited eight executives who were in some ways the best in some way, and greatly improved their military capabilities, until the six nations were shocked to realize that Solstice's military power was already at the top of the entire Teyvat."

"With strong force, opponents will naturally know how to trade fairly."

"In the past, a bag of grain was exchanged for a hundred catties of meat, and now a bag of grain is exchanged for a catty of meat, and the resources that used to cost three times the price to buy in the winter have become normal prices after the fists are hardened, and sometimes the price will be reduced to nine or eight discounts."

"While developing the military, the spies of the solstice are also lurking in various countries."

"They grasp the handles of those high-level leaders, set off turmoil in small regions, create regional conflicts, and plot rebellion against the country's top leaders, so as to grab more benefits for themselves."

"From the perspective of other countries, I would think that Solstice is really a fucking beast, but I am helpless against its strength."

"On the other hand, if you look at Solstice from the perspective of Solstice, Puccinella, who formulated this series of policies, is the benefactor of Solstice."

"It was he who filled the stomachs of the Solstice people, and no longer worried that they would freeze to death in the cold one day, and he made the other six countries dare not exploit the Solstice anymore, and even had to pinch their noses and be robbed by the Solstice."

"All of this is his credit."

Lin Feng said a lot in one breath.

All these things about Puccinella were what he had seen from the library of the Solstice.

Puccinella was not a saint.

Although he was considered a saint by the Solstice commoners.

As a man of vanity and full of power, Puccinella published an autobiography, hung his portrait in a position second only to the Empress statue, and published a biography of his deeds in Solstice, so that everyone in Solstice could remember what he had done for Solstice.

And Puccinella is very measured.

He publicized his great achievements.

But he never forgot to put the Ice Empress first.

Under the guidance of the Ice Empress.

This is the opening phrase in every one of his biographies.

He gave the greatest merit to the Ice Empress, who rarely showed up, and this would not cause the Empress to make a plan, nor would it affect his prestige in the hearts of the civilians of Solstice.

It can be said that it is both cunning and clever to do.

"Ahh

"How did Mondstadt survive so many years under such a ruthless man?"

After listening to it, Eula only had one thought.

Puccinella was a man with a very terrible wrist.

It's really horrible.

Eula broke out in a cold sweat just by listening.

If it weren't for the presence of the Ice Empress, his status would be almost equal to that of the Emperor of Solstice.

Introductory and domineering externally, the entire solstice has been made monolithic, and a resource-poor country has become the hegemon of Teyvat.

"That's what I'm telling you."

"On the first day I arrived at [Fireplace House], the old guy found out who I was an undercover agent."

Lin Feng threw another bombshell.

"Huh?"

Really.

This bombshell thundered Eula's feet, and her face was incredible.

Lin Feng was caught as an undercover agent on the first day of solstice, and then he could stay in solstice for three years, and even be the first person to sit under the executive step by step?

This.

Fantastic!

"Surprised, isn't it?"

"Honestly, when I first found out about this, I was stupid."

Lin Feng smiled self-deprecatingly: "I used to naively think that I was hiding so seamlessly that no one would be able to discover my identity, so can you imagine what my mood was like when I knew that I had been exposed a long time ago?" ”

"I can't imagine it."

It's not funny.

Eula had a complicated expression.

But she's more curious now.

Undercover.

It was discovered on the first day.

This is a mortal thing in any country, and it will be hung up for public display in any country.

Is Lin Feng still alive and so moist???

"It's Arecino."

Lin Feng gently spit out a name that he didn't want to mention.

"Huh?"

"She?"

Eula stopped, and her mouth was open enough to stuff an egg in.

The spy leader of a country actually protected an undercover agent from another country?

"Hmm."

Lin Feng nodded: "Do you remember the document I was given at Mondstadt Arecino?" It was full of what I had done as an undercover agent over the years, and the evidence was conclusive, but all of them were stopped by Arrecino, and she even drew her sword against Puccinella and Torore several times to protect me. ”

Eula must have remembered it.

She was there when this happened, watching as Arechino destroyed the records and cleaned Lin Feng's stain on the Fatui with her own hands.

"You know why Arechino is targeting me so much now, and I don't say a word."

Lin Feng shook his head lightly: "I am a person who must be repaid, according to my temper, after I make a career, the first thing I will do is to get rid of all those people who have been targeted." ”

"But I really don't know what to do with Arecino."

"She's protected me too many times."

"Now so hostile to me, or because I was adopted by the Empress, and became a threat to her among the Fatui."

After speaking, Lin Feng sighed heavily.

For this 'mother' of the whole [Fireplace House].

His feelings were too complicated.

"You've done a great job."

As he spoke, a somewhat old-fashioned-sounding voice came from behind Lin Feng.

"Huh?"

Lin Feng turned his head.

Behind him was a diminutive old man, dressed plainly and wearing a hat large enough to cover half of his face.

"Puccinera, your ears are really smart."

Lin Feng greeted with an unchanged expression.

That's right.

This old man who suddenly appeared was the fifth executive officer of the Fatui who was at the center of Lin Feng and Eula's topic just now, and the mayor of Solstice City, Puccinella.

"There is too much of a comfortable life, and your alertness is a little worse."

Puccinella walked between Lin Feng and Eula with a cane, nodded to Eula with an elegant gesture, and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, pretty lady." ”

"Hello to you."

Eula hurriedly replied.

However, after Puccinella greeted her, he didn't look at her anymore, but looked at Lin Feng with blazing eyes and said, "Lin Feng, well, this is your current name, right?" ”

"That's my original name."

"Oh, I'm sorry, it was my negligence, then, Lin Feng, I came to see you today, what I want to say you should know, right?"

"I probably know something."

"So, what about your answer?"

"It depends."

"Is that so? That's a pity. ”

"It's not a pity, it's up to you what you've done, at least for now, except for Torre, I don't have much ill will towards you."

"Torre? Hehe. ”

Puccinella lowered the brim of his hat and chuckled, "You have a great personal vendetta against him, and I can't persuade him, but you remember, Dotore is of great use to Her Majesty, at least, he can't die yet." ”

Hearing this, Lin Feng also replied with a smile: "Then who is more important, me or Duo Torre?" ”

“.”

This sentence instantly killed Puccinella.

He was slightly stunned before he said helplessly: "It seems that I have to pray for Dotore in advance." ”

After speaking, Puccinella bowed his head to Lin Feng and said: "Although it is a pity, the answer to what I want to ask has been obtained, and I hope we will not become enemies in the future." ”

"See you soon."

Lin Feng also replied, watching Puccinella walk to the Solstice Council Hall on crutches.

He and Eula then left.

This time, they didn't talk much more about Solstice.

Soon.

They arrived at the orphanage that Lin Feng had brought back then.

Fireplace House.

After explaining his intentions, it didn't take long for a young girl to rush over with two teenagers who looked to be seven or eight years old.

"Brother Troy."

Tartaglia's family knew Lin Feng very well, and cheered as soon as they met.

"Tonya, Anton, Teucer."

"I'll take you to Ajax."

When the words fell, looking at these cheering teenagers and girls, Lin Feng smiled extremely happily.
