It was originally a discussion between three people, but in the middle of the night, it became only Xiboril and Tallulah arguing.

Grab it. Grab it. What they were talking about was about the current political changes in this country. Wu Ke didn't know much about it, so he couldn't interrupt them at all.

I can only stay nearby and be a scribe, writing hard and writing down the useful information contained in what the two people said.

He can listen to it once and remember it, but it would be more troublesome to repeat it or check for omissions and fill in the gaps, so it is better to write these things down.

After all, others do not have his ability to receive information, and written information can make it easier for others to understand the situation.

"From the current point of view, there is no possibility of the empire's new policy changing in the future. If the infected want to regain their own rights and interests in this environment, there is no other way except war. s method!"

Hyboril asserted.

"War, war, in your wolf's mouth, every word leads people in the direction of war. Does it do you any good to say this? It is obvious that you can obtain fairness and justice in this world through a more peaceful way. justice."

Tallulah did not agree with Xiboril's words, and slapped the table with her palms, as if she wanted to slap this small slap on Xiboril's wolf head, just like slapping the head of a wooden fish. generally.

"A peaceful way? What do you mean specifically? Is it the conscience of the upper-class nobles in the empire?"

Xiboril's voice was bitter and mean. Hours of non-stop arguments with the girl opposite had made the female ensign lose her false respect for Tallulah's high-ranking noble status. She no longer wanted to do it. It's just superficial, he said bluntly.

"Those upper-class nobles only care about their own interests. They never care about the situation of the people at the bottom. If they want their conscience to do something good for the infected, maybe you are dreaming."

巘戅巘戅. "Don't use your villain's mind to speculate on people you have never been in contact with. I admit that most of the nobles in the empire are just like you said, they are a group of selfish people who only value their own interests.

However, you cannot deny that there is still a small group of nobles who want to make changes to the current situation of the empire. Just like me, they want to help those who are in suffering. Those people who have assisted and helped Please pass me by and provide material assistance to those in need.

Whether it is the batch of medicines and supplies that were robbed by you before being transported to the North, or other things that were previously transported to other places, these are all ironclad facts! "

"Like you? I admit that my contact with you made me realize that you are indeed a noble lady who sincerely helps others. I would like to call this behavior kind, but your kindness does not mean that others are the same. Being kind doesn’t mean that others will be as naive as you.”

"What did you say?"

Tallulah stared.

"I'm talking about naive and idealistic young lady. If you didn't hear me clearly, I don't mind saying it a few more times."

Xibolier's words were a bit unworthy of a beating. Wu Ke, the clerk next to him, coughed lightly. He felt that he was also offended.

"..."

Hearing the cough, the expression on Xiboril's face suddenly stiffened. He was so busy arguing with Tallulah that he almost forgot that there was an equally idealistic person next to him who had a big fist that could kill him with one fist.

"I just feel a discomfort in my throat, please continue and don't pay attention to me."

Seeing the two people looking over, Wu Ke said casually.

Xiboril didn't believe this. She had spent the most nights with the other person, so she knew the other person well. The words this person said to her the previous night were no worse than Tallulah tonight. If she hadn't been able to defeat him, The other party, maybe she would be as rude to him as she is now.

It is very pleasant to attack people, especially those who are much higher than you. But if you are attacking someone whose strength is much higher than yourself, it will not be a happy thing. Instead, it will make you feel scared. Worried about being beaten to death.

Xiboril accepted the magical power of the Onmyoji, and did not say any more outrageous words to the boy next to him, who looked like a married couple. They were both innocent girls.

With the same cough, he dropped the yin and yang tone, used a tone of stating the facts, and began to explain.

"If you are not the daughter of a duke, if you do not have a duke who holds the real power of the empire behind you, can you still be optimistic that others will be as 'kind' as you?

厺厽 厺厽. Miss Tallulah, you are not a fool, you should know the harmony of human nature.

Many times, the kindness shown by people in high positions does not come from the heart like you do.

It just happens that the definition of this general concept is in line with their own interests, so they behave kindly.

I don't deny that there may be people like you in there, but I am sure that they are more trying to please you and the guy behind you, the Grand Duke of Ursus. You should be able to understand this trend of attachment and objective existence, right? "

Tallulah did not retort: ​​"I can understand."

"So, do you still insist on your idea?"

"why not?"

Tallulah took a deep breath, and Xiboril narrowed her eyes.

"I'm not being unreasonable. As you said, most of the time, the kindness of the upper-class nobles does not stem from their true thoughts in their hearts, but from their own standpoint of whether they can profit from it.

In this case, then just give them benefits. Anyway, I am not pursuing their kindness, but just want them to do kind actions. I use those people like tools and let those people do what I want. action.

I don’t think you think that the materials I obtain for the disadvantaged are simply based on the kindness of others? "

When she said this, Tallulah's temperament was particularly A, full of heartbreaking aggression, and she fell in love with the temptation under her pomegranate skirt.

To use a more appropriate word to describe it, that is, this girl has the look of an emperor who is "awake to hold the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of a beautiful woman".

"Right is also the power that can be exploited."

"Rights are related to identity. Without identity, where would the rights come from? Miss Tallulah, I have to remind you that your rights come from your Duke father.

And when you stand as a rebel and fight against the Empire's New Deal, you are no longer the daughter of a duke, but an enemy of the Empire!

Grab it. Grab it. When the time comes, who do you think will continue to be obsessed with you? "

Xiboril reminded him while holding his forehead.

"Of course I know this, but what I want to use is not power, but profit!"

For the Ursus Empire, which has emerged from the shadow of the post-war war, oppressing the infected is not something that needs to continue.

Looking at the overall situation, liberating the infected is even equal to liberating the labor force in society.

Because infected people in this country will be persecuted by the new policy, many workers related to the Source Stone processing industry chain will bear increased risks in disguise.

Therefore, their salary requirements have also been raised to a very high level. If it is lower, no one is willing to do it. "

“Today, the average salary of workers in the Originium industry chain has increased by more than 11.5 times compared to before the New Deal began.

If the current New Deal can be abandoned and the oppression of domestic infected people can be relaxed, the wages of workers in the Originium industry chain will also drop when social risks are reduced.

Subsequently, the various materials produced in the Origin Stone industry chain will also decrease as labor costs decrease.

This will be a good thing for the official finances of the Ursus Empire and society as a whole..."

Tallulah explained how the Ursus Empire as a whole would benefit from this from an overall perspective.

She told Xiboril that the future she talked about was not something that could be seen but not touched, like a castle in the air or a mirror in the water.

It is possible to realize it because it represents another kind of interest, the interest of the country as a whole.

"Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Tallulah still holds a grudge. The person opposite actually regards her as an aristocratic lady who is inexperienced in the world? !

"I understand."

Xiboril nodded, but she still said the same thing. She did not think that what Tallulah said was possible to be realized.

"I've already talked about this, why are you still so stubborn?"

Tallulah questioned.

"The fact that you ask this proves that you don't understand human nature thoroughly enough."

Hibberil said so.

What is human nature?

In Xiboril's words, human nature is like mud on the ground after the ice and snow thaw.

The country of Ursus is not a whole. It is a country ruled by the emperor, big nobles, many small and medium nobles, and local clans.

"So, things that are beneficial to the whole do not mean that they will be realized, because in the whole, there is something called the individual."

Individual interests override overall interests. This is Hibberil's point of view, and her basis comes from her own experience.

Even if the Luper clan, like 'Enno', is as united as a pack of wolves, there will still be careerists like her uncle.

People who sacrifice the overall interests of the clan for their own individual interests, and this is for the people of the clan who have the blood of the same race flowing through them.

If this concept is applied to the level of the entire country, with people of different races, people with different status classes, and people with different religious beliefs, this contradiction will be amplified and become more intense.

This is also true. Ursus is indeed a chaotic country. If it were not ruled by a powerful regime, their own people might have started fighting.

Of course, if it were just that, Xiboril would not completely deny Tallulah's words. The reason why she completely denied Tallulah's words was because of the inherent chain of interests that had become an established fact in this country.

Hiboril used the lord here, Viscount Normans, as an example.

"There were thirty-six national mines here, but Viscount Normans quietly moved the deceased infected miners to the snowfields by reporting their deaths, and privately established his own mines on the snowfields. And this The number of private mines is several times the number of national mines.”

This is a typical example of harming the public and enriching private interests, and personal interests override the overall interests.

Moreover, it is not only Viscount Normans who is doing this, but basically all the lords on the edge of the snowfield are doing this. This is why there are so many large and small mines in the snowfield.

嘘戅书库网嘘戅. Moreover, it is not only the lord who is doing this, but other people under the lord are also doing similar things.

For example, although the middle and low-level officers in the army cannot open private mines, they will transfer the guarding tasks assigned to them by their lords.

Hire laymen, eliminate dissidents around them, and send people to work as coolies in the snowfield mines, while they eat empty wages in the rear, intercept most of their due salaries, and give a small amount to the nominal subordinates in the snowfield mines.

Those subordinates will vent their dissatisfaction on the infected people in the mine, thinking that it is all their infected people's fault. These are commonplace things that were established in more than ten years after the infected people were persecuted. , a huge chain of interests that has been firmly established on the infected.

The big head was eaten by the powerful nobles, big and small, and the small head was divided by various people below. Everyone gained a lot of benefits from it, and only the infected were suffering.

But who cares?

The answer is no one cares!

Xixi Shucang.com Xixi. "Compared with the overall interests you mentioned, people in the country of Ursus care more about individual interests.

From the emperor down to the people, it is nothing more than this.

If you want to change the situation of infected people, you must first subvert the existing interest chain and profit groups.

But apart from war, there is absolutely no other way! "

The dispute between the interests of the whole and the interests of the individual.

The contradiction between idealism and realism.

Clearly, neither man's views are easily changed.

Their basis is also very solid.

It can even be seen as a debate on the evil and goodness of human nature.

Things were made clear, and Xiboril and Tallulah could understand what each other wanted to express, but they could not agree with each other's point of view.

Now that no one can convince anyone, the atmosphere has reached a deadlock again.

After a stalemate for a while, Tallulah came up with an idea and suggested: "You and I can't convince anyone now, and it will be the same if this stalemate continues. And this is what the organization needs, so let the guy who can make the decision come. Decide whose opinion to take, and don’t let that person sit around like someone who has nothing to do.”

It could be heard that Tallulah was very dissatisfied with Wu Ke who was silent at the side, but she burned her anger on him.

It was obvious that this guy was the initiator of the meeting, but the other party sat beside him like a nobody, not saying anything at all, just watching and listening to the argument between the two of them. It would be abnormal if there was no excitement.

Xiboril wanted to say that it was unfair. This person's views were as naive as yours, and even more idealistic. But then he thought about it, why would she argue with people about this kind of thing?
