A tree grew on the wasteland. A red lantern was hung on the tree. The candlelight flickered. Yu Qiqi counted the oranges on the tree and flapped his palms with the folding fan. He was a very typical image of the second son of a big family, with starry eyebrows and sharp eyes. , handsome appearance.
Curb your curiosity.
This is the creed by which he lives.
"The merchant has sent a letter, asking you to find a cherry blossom tree."
"Cherry blossoms?"
"Yes. The letter was sent a few months ago." The butler bowed.
The organizational model of the Imperial Cemetery is still very strict. Compared with Twilight of the Gods, it is more disciplined. However, at a certain level, there are too many class levels and the gap between the rich and the poor is too wide:
If the social structure of the White Kingdom is like a dragon, and the Four Kingdoms are like a snake, and the industrial chain is not so interlocking, then the Imperial Cemetery is equivalent to a sheep, because the bottom level is relatively high, so the entire level is more Compact, Ragnarok is organized like a soybean.
The Imperial Cemetery is the pinnacle of this organizational structure, because the stalls of the White Kingdom and the Shikoku are too large, the management costs are high, and the corruption of power is completely caused by the excessive torque. In contrast, the Imperial Cemetery is well-equipped with all people and soldiers, and the overall operation is There is no place that needs special care. It moves around and lives endlessly.
The difference between Twilight of the Gods and the Imperial Cemetery is this, because they are both top-notch and get along more like friends. Unless it is a tractor organization like [Born Feud], the strength of those few will directly destroy the normal ones. The Twilight of the Gods has exploded, so that there can be obvious superiors and subordinates, but in fact, even with such a strong leadership, it cannot be said that there is peace inside.
Strong people are arrogant and will leave after being aggrieved. On the Niedu battlefield, every being who can join the Ragnarok forces is a legend. This also leads to Ragnarok-level forces, usually If there are no rules and the organizational structure is unstable, it will naturally not be able to form a considerable deterrent force.
This is why the Imperial Cemetery often has its own force name, but Ragnarok does not. Instead, the names of certain members are particularly useful in certain areas, so [Born Feud] can be used as a Ragnarok level. It is also a skill to be remembered for one's power.
The second young master opened the letter and found out that the rules and order of the Imperial Cemetery were the true reflection of their strength, because even Ragnarok would not touch these hedgehogs. Except for the vengeance, the seven or eight of them were originally The presence of "Dangdang" has a tacit understanding. If you want to destroy an empire's cemetery, you can do it in a few days.
However, this can also be seen from the side. The group power of the Imperial Cemetery can elevate a group of elite threats to another level that is incompatible with them. After all, individuals who can be labeled as Ragnarok, even in wheel battles, are not Ten thousand imperial cemeteries can kill an individual.
Of course, if there is a group fight, the outcome is hard to say.
The letter was very short. As the legitimate son of the family, Yu Qi was well-educated. Although he was not like a merchant who had to inherit and be responsible for the rise and fall of the family or even a force, he was not like his younger siblings who could choose their thoughts more freely. Take the path and then climb the peak without distraction.
He is more like a substitute, a conservative businessman, but because the family wants to be the leader of the power, all resources are poured into his eldest brother, so that he does not develop into an all-rounder. The coincidence and arrangement are just because of the status of "Second Young Master".
The same goes for other families. The second and third sons always appear as substitutes. Especially the second sons, there is almost no good luck befalling them, especially when the eldest brother grows up ahead of them and achieves excellent results. More like a puppet standing in the shadows, an alternative to eating ashes in a warehouse.
This entangled relationship between the second son and the eldest son is very awkward in the special position of the imperial cemetery, because the position of the heir cannot be fully competed, because they are like sheep and need to be maintained. The atmosphere on the surface is peaceful, but if a family fights to the death for power, they will obviously lose the trust of the group and be expelled on the grounds of destroying harmony.
Don't let a piece of mouse droppings spoil the whole pot of porridge.
In contrast, the Shikoku and the White Kingdom, because of the existence of string puppets, smart puppets or high-level emotional puppets, their status will not be shaken, and their colleagues have been friends for thousands of years, so their power is hereditary. If the inheritance is deeply rooted, they can appoint a successor at this time, or let the descendants fight wantonly.
The letter written by the merchant to Yu Qi was full of words that others could not understand. This was a unique way of communication between the boss and the second child in the imperial cemetery.
The power of merchants can be spread widely, so they are often the most sensitive to the trends of the four countries. Judging from the current information, the Blue Country is in a very strange state of involution, and is dissatisfied with the speed of development. But they are extremely solid. It is obvious that they are very unoptimistic about their situation and are improving their strength at a panicky speed.
However, if you join the competition so late, you should have such an attitude, otherwise you will definitely be kicked out. But it is rare to unite knowledge and action. Knowing how to do it is one thing, but practicing it is another. Matters, especially the power structure of the four countries, different powers have hidden agendas, how can they be so united?
It seems that the emperor, who has been absent for two and a half years, has his own way of thinking about these free-growing ministers. I guess he will not be a fuel-saving lamp.
As for the guy from the red country, he is really as arrogant as ever.
Yu Qi didn't say anything. He knew his eldest brother better than anyone else. After all, he had been trying to chase him for so many years. As his closest enemy, the Second Young Master's admiration for the merchant could not be expressed in words. Oral taboos:
From following step by step with no hope of reaching him, to being far away when he was losing his mind, Shang Zhang was a monument and an insurmountable mountain in Yu Qi's heart. When the gap between this mountain and him narrowed to a certain extent, he had quietly accepted his fate. In this silent confrontation that lasted for more than ten years, the other party was the stranger he was most familiar with, and although he never had the thought of surpassing the other party, he never really bowed his head.
Yes, he may not be as good in many places, but he did not admit defeat.
This is not a contradiction, it is just that Yu Qi stretched the front line, did not seize the day or night, and did not stick to the moment.
The merchant has written many letters to his family, most of which are addressed to the second son.
