Chapter 1239 Erupt or perish
The little earl's expression was a little subtle. When Lynch asked him when the nobles were going to do something, he subconsciously folded his hands together and pressed them on his knees.

There was still a look of "I'm not so fucking embarrassed to say" on his face, and then his hands were separated again, and they were placed on the sides of his body a little uncomfortably, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Lynch looked at him, and he finally had to briefly describe some of the things that were going on here.

"There are still some problems that have not been resolved by the Privy Council. I heard that it will be done in the first quarter of next year, but some people say that it will be done in the first month of next year, and some people say that it will be done on the first day. I am not very sure. clear."

Mr. Truman couldn't get more detailed information. Lynch didn't think it was a surprise. He didn't do intelligence work and didn't know much about many insider things.

The little earl is a nobleman himself, and he is a relatively important member. He knows more about this than Mr. Truman than the federal agents.

Lynch was a little surprised, "Is there anything I don't know?"

The little earl said with a smile, "I don't need to tell you, you will know soon!"

The news of Lynch's arrival in Gafla was quickly spread by some interested people. When he arrived in the imperial capital, the emerging nobles had already held a grand ball to welcome him!

It was precisely because of Lynch's suggestion that they took all their property away from the main island, which had no room for living, and went to the Ameria region where the nobles were not so willing to go, and saved up in just two years. Amazing wealth!
The aristocrats themselves possessed certain privileges, and at this time they became richer, and these people had faintly huddled together to form a new group.

This description is a bit complicated, they are not connected through a secret society, but a business group.

We usually discuss together what kind of business to get money faster, or discuss how to enjoy the rich material life brought by money.

These are things they didn't have before. If they were rich from the beginning, they wouldn't risk everything to go to Amélia with Lynch.

People always harbor hatred for the unsatisfactory past, and when they are able to take revenge, they will never stop.

Splurge may be the revenge of poverty. The ball they held for Lynch was very grand, and they also invited many famous actors, models and some famous people in Guafra.

People revolve around wealth, but also power, flowers, spirits, beauties!
The ball was held at the little earl's manor. Lynch was here early in the morning. There was still some time before the ball officially started. Lynch, the little earl, and some other nobles gathered in a room.

There are many rooms in the castle, and only the housekeeper may know which room is used for.

They found a random room and sat down. The servants brought fragrant and high-quality scented tea, as well as some other drinks and various pastries and fruits.

People sat around Lynch, and the eyes of those young nobles were full of admiration!

Like the little earl, they had almost unreserved trust and admiration for Lynch. The older ones were a little better, but there were still some.

"...the value of the World Development Council is to provide us with more trade opportunities!"

Lynch was sitting among the people, and everyone's minds were firmly tied to his words, affected by his every move.

What he is talking to everyone now is the value of the World Development Committee to them.

In Lynch's eyes, these new generation nobles actually have the lowest recognition of the country, the noble group, and the lowest loyalty to the country!

They are not like the veteran nobles in the Privy Council, those veteran nobles are survivors who have settled down after years of baptism.

Their family history is actually the history of the Gafla dynasty, and they accompanied the empire that once created glory from its inception to today. In a sense, they are the same as the royal family, and they are all the Gafla empire. Master!

So they will have a sense of belonging, they will think that they are part of the Gefla empire, an inseparable part.

But the new generation of nobles is different. They don't have a long history. They became nobles for various reasons, and they don't have a sense of participation in the construction of the country.

What's even more frightening is that the division of noble forces on this island has been completely over hundreds of years ago, and the island can no longer accommodate the new generation of nobles to take root here, which has also caused conflicts between the new generation of nobles and the old nobles .

You can't just confer titles on them, but leave them alone, can you?
Yes, that's what they did. Most of these new generation of nobles are poor, and they may not even be able to spend money for the ball.

They can only share a small amount of profits from businessmen in those inconspicuous industries. If they want to touch those profitable industries, there are some big nobles waiting to deal with them!

Under such circumstances, how could they have a sense of belonging to this country?

Of course not!
They have recognized reality more than anyone else, and when they have no money, anyone can laugh at them.

When they had money, the nobles of the Privy Council looked at them seriously.

It was Lynch who allowed them to be treated equally.

People's attention is focused on Lynch's voice, and they firmly believe that Lynch's analysis is infallible, just like it has been done countless times before!
"...We can use this organization to tap the potential of internal trade. Sometimes products that have been outdated for us have become advanced commodities in some countries."

"All of these require us to dig out in person. There are 24 countries, gentlemen. After removing Gefra and the Federation, we still have 22 countries as sales markets."

"Even if our sales in each country can only account for a very small part, this is an amazing wealth!"

"And we can also, through the World Development Council, build a trade barrier that protects ourselves while isolating the outside world."

"Just like our embargo list this time, we can also allow other member states to prohibit the import of certain things from outside the member states, but in some ways, from our hands!"

"Whether it's export or import, as long as we control the World Development Council, it means we have completely controlled the trade markets of 24 countries!"

"More importantly, from today's point of view, the number of member states of this trade alliance will increase, and our market will also increase!"

"Money will naturally earn more and more!"

There was a certain kind of sparkle in the eyes of the little count, almost everyone did, and they had gradually understood why the Federation was committed to promoting the World Development Committee.

The little count picked up his glass and took a sip of the wine. He has just grown up and can already drink alcoholic beverages.

In fact, the nobles might secretly drink alcohol when they were very young, but no one would say anything about them. After all, they were nobles, and the Gefla Empire belonged to them. Who would talk about them for such a trivial matter?
After drinking some wine and calming down, the little count asked something he cared about, "Mr. Lynch, the conflict between the Federation and Penteo let us see that the world is not as peaceful as we saw, and the future will inevitably The outbreak of war!"

He said with certainty, "If there was a war, when do you think it would be?"

This issue has also aroused the concern of many nobles. Their vision is still a little worse than those of the old nobles, and some of them are "lucky people".

In layman's terms, they are jesters in the past, who became nobles by winning the favor of the emperor or the royal family. They are not sensitive enough to politics and lack the overall situation.

Recently, Gefra sold a lot of interests for the tripartite peace talks. There are some voices in China who believe that the current prime minister team is selling out the interests of the country for some ulterior motives.

And all of this is to try not to let the war break out.

It is precisely because of these problems that people have to think about a problem-is war still far away?
Lynch thought about it seriously for a while, "No more than five years!"

The little count asked amusedly, "Why do you have such a judgment?"

It's all about asking for advice, which is very pleasing and makes people want to express their ideas!
Lynch looked around at the nobles who were either sitting or standing. He didn't give a direct answer, but gave them a thought question.

"Whether it's the Federation or Gefla, every year we invest a lot of money in researching new war equipment."

"Some new equipment has just been produced, and there have been new breakthroughs in technology."

"It's been more than six years since the end of the war, and in that six-plus years each of our countries has undergone a facelift."

"The new military equipment that has just been refitted has been eliminated by us today."

"We spend too much money on armaments, and the military budget is seriously taking up more of the country's finances!"

"Everything is preparing for a war that does not know when it will come. The longer the peace, the greater the damage to the finances of various countries."

"More and more power and funds are invested in military use after our enemy announces one new type of equipment after another. In the end, there is no money where it is needed. The financial system is distorted and we cannot stop. "

"At this time, what should we do?"

Lynch looked at the others, and everyone's expression was very serious.

In fact, the conflict between the Gefra noble group and the royal family has something to do with financial issues, but it is not so obvious.

The question Lynch mentioned also made people think about the situation Gafla encountered at this time.

In order to catch up with the Federals in terms of military equipment, it is said that 60.00% of the budget for this year will be allocated to various military projects!

If... these inputs don't play their due role...

What will happen to this country?
