Section 247 Reverse Passage of Time (I)
Lula is not detailed enough in the information that Solomon now has, and his initial impression is that he has both popularity and authority, and he has connections to the royal family and is also close to other forces. Sister-in-law Suo Ke Er said the Internet, and the most famous Yanqing girl said Bayi Chinese Network w?w?w?.?8?1?z?w.com
But the main reason for him to sit as the supreme patriarch of the Maed Empire is that he is a priest of Akatosh.
Akatosh is the most special one among Adra, as mentioned earlier, there are only nine Holy Spirits, and this is not counting the Saiptin who joined later, and Saiptin is also a descendant of Akatosh's bloodline and awakened and grown.
But the nine Holy Spirits prevented the seventeen evil gods from freely entering the material realm, and the power of Akatosh played a decisive role.
His position can be said to be superior to the other Edla, even including Dedra, there is no shortage of powerful evil gods in Dedra, but the fact is that the Holy Spirit has the upper hand, and the Queen of Twilight can only silently watch in her realm of annihilation, and Dagon has successfully destroyed the city many times, but then he will be expelled back, and each expulsion is accompanied by the destruction of a doppelganger.
Lula was a priest of Akatosh, which in itself was a noble status.
However, in the Beesda plane, the church of the Holy Spirit is somewhat special, there is no so-called pope, only priests from all over the world, and the priests preside over the sacrifice.
There was no absolute authority among the priests in each place, but in a loose structure, where they had great authority and authority in their own place, but they could not necessarily command the priests of the Holy Spirit in another place, even if they were priests of the same deity.
Like Lula, who is only in a position similar to that of the leader of the League, not the status of the Pope, the faith in the Holy Spirit needs to be combined with the secular, so a priest is needed to become the supreme priest of the Senate, and Acatosh chose Lula, so Lula became the supreme senator.
Even Titus Mader had to accept it when he was alive, because the Mader Empire needed the help of the priests to end the troubled times after the collapse of the Septine Empire, as well as the acquiescence of the Holy Spirit behind them.
Such a person is logically difficult to impress.
Redfield is a follower of Arkay. Yu Cen is considered a follower of Zenisar, but Yu Cen is certainly not as religious as Redfield, and Zenisal is a god of craftsmen and commerce, and those who become his followers naturally like to trade. Even with their gods, they have to pay for the gains and losses.
Lula was the priest of Akatosh, and of the three, Yuzen was probably the most suitable for some trades, as he would certainly be in his own interests, and Lula was not a good match, although it was impossible to determine whether he could make a deal or not. The initials of the new domain name Kele Novel Network (k1xsw), the largest free romance Chinese website, hurry up. But the information about him is inferior to the first two.
But Solomon told Brandy that Lula was probably the most promising target, for among the few stories he knew about Lula, he saw the man's hidden ambitions.
But this qiē has to meet Lula, and it has to be very natural to see it to be easy to succeed.
Fortunately, he had already taken the line of Yuzen, and in the following time, Solomon brought a batch of gold and silver from Asturias by covert means, and although these precious metals were no longer in circulation as the currency of Asturias, they were used here.
Yuzen received the first shipment of gold from Solomon. Finally having faith in Solomon, his spirits were lifted, and he was just hoping for some support from Arya, but he really opened up another path that might really save him.
Of course, Solomon's gold is only a part of the withdrawal from the monetary field after the implementation of the Mithril standard, and it is a very small part, when the gold is withdrawn from the monetary field and is only reduced to a material in the alchemy material, the total mineral reserves of Asturias and other colonial planes are too rich. As a result, many places have not been mined, and now the most important ones in the mineral deposits are Mithril, Magic Crystals, and Adamantite Gold.
But now it is used as an introduction to give Yu Cen reassurance. convincing him that Solomon might indeed be able to help him.
However, even though Yu Cen was willing to lend money to the merchant consortium mentioned by Solomon, the other party's request was not something that he could agree to as a finance minister, and it was in the name of the empire.
The most difficult condition put forward by the other party now is to ask for the Stupid Islands, which Yu Cen cannot do, and it is impossible to hand over part of the empire's territory to outsiders under normal circumstances. Especially outsiders are not from this plane.
But Yuzen had no choice but to facilitate it, for the gold that Solomon had given him convinced him that it might be the only way to get him out of danger.
On the one hand, he proposed to Solomon that he and the merchants behind him would not be so greedy, and that no matter how bad the empire was, it would be impossible to sell them the territory like this, but it might be much easier in the form of a concession.
On the other hand, he knew that even if he persuaded Solomon, he would still have to get the consent of the Senate, and the key to this was Lula.
At this point, of course, he can only have a showdown with Lula, come to the door, and honestly tell Lula about the current bad situation of the empire's finances, and let him be a scapegoat, but this does not solve the fundamental problem, on the contrary, without him, others may not have the ability to solve it.
Lula wasn't ignorant of the empire's poor finances, but he was taken aback when Yuzen came to the door to tell him in secret.
He also vaguely knew that Redfield was preparing to impeach Cen at the upcoming Senate convention, remove him from office, and even deal with him.
He is also considering whether to intervene to stop this matter, he can approve of some of Redfield's plans, such as impeaching and removing Yu Cen from his position as minister, he was really a little unreasonable when he was in power, although the empire's financial problems have accumulated for many years, but it does not mean that there is no greed of Yu Cen, such as a large amount of land being seized by cunning, and the people in Yu Cen's family are very happy.
However, even the identity of the patriarch has to be removed, and Lula has not yet made up his mind, if he does this, Yu Cen will be finished.
Before he could make a decision, Yu Cen came to the door, honestly explaining the bad finances of the empire, which was even stricter than Lula imagined, and now the question was not whether to get rid of Yu Cen, but who would clean up this mess after removing him.
Redfield? He's okay to fight, Lula doesn't believe in him, except for Yu Cen, it's just to increase Redfield's momentum, and it can't solve the problem, and he can't let himself solve it when the time comes.
Yu Cen, the old fox, came to the door to fight the idea of retreating into advance, and honestly told Lula about the bad finances, and when he saw that he was indecisive, he knew that his headache now was that even if he got rid of himself, who would clean up the situation.
"Elder, I know this terrible situation, I have a responsibility, and my family also has some greedy guys among them, if you are willing to give me a chance, I am willing to kill my relatives in righteousness. And for the current situation, I think that it is not that I have the cheekiness to insist on sitting in the position of chancellor of the exchequer, but that I have to sit down and I am responsible for solving it. Yu Cen said excitedly.
If he can step down safely without taking any responsibility, he begs that he has to sit in this position again, but this must be delusional, so he continues to retreat into advance, and impassionedly expresses that he will take responsibility and find a way to solve the problem.
"Hmph, it's bad like this, what can you do? I only hope that the war against the elves can be decided, otherwise I can't support it, and the empire may be dragged down by this war. Lula said.
"There is a solution, as long as there is money to help us, it is equivalent to giving us a dose of life-saving medicine, so that we can slow down and then use enough time to seek change. Yu Cen said stiffly.
"Enough time, money. "But where will the money come from? unless the empire immediately has a huge gold mine." ”
"There are no gold mines, but there are people who are willing to lend us money. Yu Cen gritted his teeth and said.
"Borrow money?" Lula was vigilant, first of all, who could have the ability to borrow, this is the level that needs to help a kingdom, not a small amount of borrowing between ordinary merchants.
Yu Cen gritted his teeth again and told Lula about Solomon's demands on behalf of the Merchant Consortium of Heteroplanes, including a revised one, to lease the Foolish Islands for two hundred years.
"Great Elder, holding me accountable is already secondary, but if you don't find a way to breathe this breath, the empire's finances will really be finished, and the time comes. Yu Cen swallowed.
Lula of course knew about this strict situation, once the empire's finances went bankrupt, even the army could mutiny, and then there would be no army, and the other provinces would become independent.
And the Holy Spirit on high doesn't care about this qiē, because it's just a fight between small bugs, no matter how you fight, it's still a little bug, and it's not necessarily impossible to change a small bug to be the leader.
As a priest of Akatosh, he was familiar with the history of the ages, and he could also vaguely see how some powerful and powerful forces had involuntarily disappeared into history and turned into dust in the myths and history of the ages.
Only the gods are immortal!
However, the gods do not intend to accept new members, and all strong people who are likely to be promoted to new gods have always died prematurely in history.
"I want to meet that Agravin. Lula finally decided.
Yuzen was overjoyed, because Lula said this, indicating that he might be able to help him in the Senate to get guò and Solomon in their deal.
And if Lula is willing to help, then Redfield's impeachment of himself may fail, and it will be even more impossible to impeach him after the effect reached with Solomon and them officially takes effect, and after the temporary resolution of the financial crisis, he will also accept it while it is good, and then take the initiative to ask to resign as Chancellor of the Exchequer, and then the crisis will break out again, but it has nothing to do with him, because it is not in his office.
