Chapter 109: Contradiction Transfer
The internal contradictions are too intense to be resolved, what should I do?
There's a simple way to do it, and it's effective in both reality and games.
Create an external contradiction.
Lindsay thought about what there were now external hostile targets in the border towns that could be found and could be used immediately.
First of all, the dragon beasts in the world of Montenegro are definitely not good.
Not only is the other party too strong, but it is also contrary to the idea of protecting the safety of the townspeople.
Taking it as an object of contradiction will definitely not have the desired effect.
So...... What about now?
Not long ago, there was an attack on the town's farmland, and today it attacked the hunter Corrupt Spider.
Isn't that just the outward goal that unites everyone?
If An Rui can use his status as a lord to guide the will of the townspeople and jointly deal with the demonic beasts that threaten the town.
With the smooth progress of this plan.
Lindsay didn't dare to say that the people in the town would show unconditional support to Anrui.
But at least those radicals who are growing more and more will certainly not go toe-to-toe with Anrui as they did this morning, and it is unlikely that they will continue to make trouble in the near future.
Lindsay's idea was simple.
The crisis in front of the town at this moment must be better solved by everyone uniting.
At such moments.
Unity is more important than anything else.
“……”
"Lindsay, you're such a genius!"
When Lindsay arrives at the Lord's Manor and tells Anrui of the idea.
The lord even jumped up from his chair in excitement and went back and forth in his study, unabashedly condemning himself:
"Really...... Why is this missing? ”
"Obviously you should think of it, and the solution to the problem is clearly in your hands!"
As the lord who has ruled the town for a hundred years.
Although he is only the manager of the outpost, Anrui has also cultivated a certain vision.
He certainly understood how useful Lindsay's ideas were.
It's just that in the past, as a warrior, after the appearance of these demonic beasts, he followed his habitual train of thought, and what he thought of was to set up a sentry and find a way to solve these things, so that there could be a safe environment around the town.
An Rui has been busy with these things for the past few days, and after losing the support of some of the Awakened, it is a hundred times more difficult for him to act than usual.
Busy in the end.
I didn't even think about it, but I could set up these monsters as enemies and use them to unite the hearts of the people in the town who were gradually separating!
Lindsey smiled modestly:
"Uncle Anrui, I also had a whim, so I told you about this immature idea."
"It would be great if everyone in the town didn't get so impulsive."
Anrui walked up to Lindsey and looked directly at the student who had surprised him.
The joy and appreciation in his eyes can't be concealed at all:
"Lindsay, your idea is so useful to me!"
"If you can restore contact with the outside world, I must do my best to make you the next manager of the hidden frontier."
"I don't need to use this." Lindsey smiled smirkedly, "Uncle Anrui, I'm still going home." ”
“……”
Lindsay's answer turned the joy on An Rui's face into a frown.
He realized that the student in front of him, whom he greatly admired, was also essentially a person who wanted to leave the hidden frontier very much, and it was impossible for him to inherit his work here.
Thinking of Somkin, who was still fighting against him this morning.
As a warrior, An Rui is also a fast talker, so he asked Lindsay directly:
"Lindsay, you want to be on their side too?"
"If that were the case, I wouldn't be giving this advice here." Seeing the loneliness in An Rui's eyes, Lindsay immediately explained, "I've been to Montenegro with you, and I know what a dangerous idea this is. How could I possibly agree that they would take the people of the town with them to die? ”
When An Rui heard this, his frown furrowed.
Just before he could make a statement, the following words were blocked back by Lindsay in advance:
"But Uncle Anrui, I also think that something should be done now."
"Whether it's weathering the cold or other ways to survive the crisis, it's time to put it on the agenda."
“……”
Anrui didn't answer Lindsay right away.
He looked at his student, who was standing upright in front of him, and was silent for a long time before finally speaking:
"Lindsay, I see what you're thinking."
"I'm sure I won't hurt you, but if you're still in this situation in the future, it's not a good choice to be a person caught in the middle."
Lindsay could understand what Anrui was trying to say.
Because of the closed environment, the hidden frontier can now be seen as a small society.
When the mainstream opinion in a society is in a state of opposition, then it is better for individuals to put away some unique opinions and join the mainstream side.
Because this is when the third opinion arises.
This kind of behavior will not even be adopted for coming up with better ideas, but will become the target of both sides.
This situation does not sound wise.
But this irrationality is also a reality of people's reactions.
In the face of An Rui's teachings, Lindsay's answer still adheres to her heart:
"Uncle An Rui, I still think I have some ability, so I should do what I can."
An Rui sighed:
"Of course I want to do it, but where is the road?"
"A seventh-stage dragon beast can't be solved by recklessness and determination."
After sighing, An Rui no longer mentioned this kind of morale-hurting thing.
He changed his tone to Lindsay and asked:
"Those plants that Finn left behind, and you're still cultivating?"
Lindsay naturally nodded in acknowledgement:
"That's right, I'm going to grow some crops that are more hardy than in the past. This way, even if the temperature continues to drop, the town will be able to keep food growing. ”
"It's just that the progress of cultivation is a little slow now."
"I estimate it will take a few months before we can actually make a little difference."
At this time, An Rui's tone became serious, and he continued to ask as the lord of a border town:
"Tell me more about growing plants."
Lindsay also straightened up and began to talk about her work:
"Three crops have been selected for the time being: winter wheat, cabbage and potatoes. I have developed different cultivation procedures for their characteristics, but because I don't have more wild parents on hand, it will be difficult to progress in the future......"
Lindsey told Anrui about the problems she encountered in cultivating crops.
The lord had also talked to Finn about the issue, so it was not difficult to understand what Lindsay meant.
He asked Lindsay for plant samples and supported them in any way he could:
"Lindsay, you just do your job of training."
"As for the wild plants you just mentioned, I will send someone to collect them."
This news is definitely a big boost for Lindsay!
"Great!"
"Uncle Anrui, this will save me a lot of time!"
Lindsay immediately thanked her.
Then the two chatted briefly, and the conversation was basically over.
When Lindsay said goodbye to Anrui and walked out of the study door.
Only then did he hear the warrior who taught him martial arts encourage him in a long voice:
"Lindsay, you're a smart kid."
"If you think of something you can do, go ahead and do it."
