Chapter 778 Changes in Attitude

When he came out of the palace, Lynch had a victorious smile on his face, and the little nobles breathed a sigh of relief.

"Things have been completed perfectly. His Majesty the Emperor agreed to our plan, and agreed to let the governor and governments at all levels cooperate with our plan..."

Without waiting for others to ask, Lynch took the initiative to tell the result of meeting His Majesty the Emperor this time.

To the relief of everyone around him, the emperor approved those plans of his, and their money was saved.

Although the money will be spent in various ways in a short period of time, at least the money is still in their hands, it just changes to a different form and continues to accompany them, and it has not left them.

This is the best result. You must know that when they first heard that the Prime Minister was going to take them under the knife, many people had already shown expressions of despair.

Unexpectedly, there is still some turning point in the matter at this point, and they also look at Lynch with more or less admiration in their eyes.

Not everyone can do this step, at least they touch their conscience and ask themselves, they can't do this.

Everyone's mood relaxed immediately, and the smiles returned to people's faces. Lynch said a few other related things, including the small requests he made...the cooperation of governments at all levels.

Lynch gave the Emperor what he wanted most, so naturally His Majesty would also wisely give Lynch what he wanted. This is politics, compromise, and deal.

Politics is never necessarily harsh or bright and positive, and it is often not as sacred as people imagine.

With the cooperation of the governor and the governments at all levels in the province of Ameria, Lynch's "urban dual core" can be implemented more smoothly.

"Then... when are we going to Amélia?" The little count was looking forward to it. Compared with others, he might still be a little apprehensive, but he was only excited.

This is the first time he has left Gafla to go to other countries. In fact, according to Gafla, the little count is not yet of age.

In Gafla, people are not considered adults until they are 20 years old, and the "travel" of the nobles is often held after they become adults. What the nobles need to do before they become adults is to study.

The young earl was an exception. The sudden death of the old earl forced him to inherit the title in advance, and at the same time he was far away from the life he should have at his age.

Rarely, he will show the look that young people should have like now, that kind of look that is full of curiosity about the outside world and full of anticipation for an upcoming "adventure".

Those suppressed things raised their heads a little bit, which made people feel a little emotional.

Lynch looked at his watch, there was a calendar window on it, "We have one last deal to do before the end of the month."

The last deal was about the struggle between the Prime Minister and His Majesty the Emperor over financial power. Although Lynch knew the result, he might not necessarily turn to the Prime Minister.

The prime minister probably knew that he had already won, so it was of little significance to rely on the past at this time, and people like Lynch were not important enough, and the prime minister would not pay attention to them.

On the contrary, it is more appropriate to stand on His Majesty's side at this time, as long as these little nobles listen to Lynch and follow the plan Lynch arranged for them, they will develop in the province of Ameria from now on.

Even if the prime minister is dissatisfied with their behavior of taking refuge in the emperor, there is nothing much they can do about it.

Here I have to mention the governor. The position of the governor is not the same as that of the governor. The governor can be regarded as the few remaining noble officials in the new era who have the characteristics of the old era.

The governor not only holds the administrative encyclopedia of the province of Ameria, finance, military administration, but also firmly in his hands.

He is like the lord of the past, with almost absolute power in his territory!
No matter how dissatisfied the prime minister is with Lynch and the others, he can't interfere with the governor's decision, and the governor has a certain relationship with the royal family. He must be on the emperor's side, so as long as he arrives in the province of Ameria, the prime minister has nothing to do with them .

Then why not seek refuge with His Majesty the Emperor at this time, the province of Ameria will inevitably become the home of the royal family in the future, and Lynch likes this kind of "open book betting" game the most.

He has already seen the ending, and there is no possibility of losing the bet at this time!
As a result of Lin Qi's conversation with the emperor, the little nobles felt at ease. In the next few days, they appeared in the Privy Council on time every day, watching the Privy Council be bustling like a market in the lower city.

Of course, some other things also happened during this period. For example, the secret police arrested a large group of opportunists who were bewitched by some hostile foreign forces. These opportunists cooperated with some... forces, causing the domestic financial market to There was serious unrest.

In order to establish the seriousness of the law and protect the dignity of the empire, the Supreme Court of the Empire conducted the final judgment on these opportunists.

All their income from this speculation is confiscated and they are fined from two to ten times as much!

In addition to losing a fortune that would have bankrupted them, they faced consequences ranging from shooting to lengthy prison terms.

Generally speaking, the anger of the people has been greatly alleviated, and some of the imperial government's measures have seen results, and the social order has basically been fully restored.

These are actually trivial matters to the nobles. The only thing that surprised them was that Lynch and his group were not arrested and sentenced.

At that time, the prime minister in the ruler's hall made it very clear, and even named Lynch's name, but he didn't expect that they escaped in the end.

It's a pity that there is no good show to watch.

The nobles are very united, which is an external expression.

Within the nobles, they are not so united with each other, and there may even be conflicts. They are also very keen on watching other nobles.

Except for these little things, everyone's attention was on the Privy Council.

People are discussing who is suitable to be the next chancellor of the exchequer, and this candidate will eventually stay on the oldest nobles.

Some of these great nobles have been passed down for 500 years, and their family history is longer than the history of the Federation, or even more than twice!
So don't blame the Gefras for looking down on the Federations, there's a reason for that.

People are paying attention to these things, Lynch and those people seem to not exist, but that's good, at least the mentality of everyone in Lynch's small group is gradually moving closer to Lynch.

They already knew the result, watching the usually calm nobles in the Privy Council jump up and down, it was like a funny show.

The enthusiasm of the aristocrats erupted was indeed astonishing. Just before the end of the month, the Prime Minister suddenly appeared in the Privy Council.

The originally bustling hall of the Privy Council suddenly fell silent. The Prime Minister did not put on airs. He kept greeting the nobles with a smile, and occasionally even shook hands and chatted cordially with some people of similar status to him.

Outside the crowd, Lynch looked at the prime minister's mannerisms and found it a little funny.

Regardless of the social forms of Gefla and the Federation, and the differences in the polarization of the political system, when it comes to "acting", politicians on both sides are masters.

The prime minister is very gentle, considerate, and easy to get in touch with. He does not exclude anyone. Even if someone reaches out to shake his hand, he will not reject others because of the difference in status between the two parties.

Of course, there are not many such people. The nobles still relatively care about their face, and at the same time they don't want to be the laughing stock in the noble circle.

The Prime Minister turned around and turned to Lynch.

"This is the second time we have met, Baron Lynch..." The prime minister stretched out his hand, which surprised the surrounding nobles.

There is no doubt that there will be no second generation for a noble like Lynch, and he is the standard "second generation dies" kind of nobleman.

How could the prime minister take the initiative to shake his hand?
Some nobles felt that there might be something hidden in it, and the way they looked at Lynch changed.

In a place like the Privy Council where nobles gather together, the Prime Minister of the Empire, one of the largest nobles, took the initiative to shake hands with a federal noble, which in itself is of great political significance.

"I don't quite remember what we did before, can you give me a hint?" Lynch didn't have the slightest stage fright in the face of this future prime minister.

He stretched out his hand generously and shook the Prime Minister's hand together.

The prime minister's hands are a bit cold, which is almost always the case when people get older, and their body temperature will be slightly lower than that of young people.

But his hands were soft, like most nobles, very soft.

The nobles may have never bent down to lift a heavy object in their life, and they continue to use various things to delay their aging, which is actually quite normal.

The hands of the two didn't let go so quickly, because of the different occasions, if they let go, it meant that the conversation between the two was over.

"When you were appointed, maybe you didn't notice me, after all I was just a 'mascot'"

He joked and laughed at himself as he spoke, which made people feel a little unclear.

Not long ago, the prime minister wanted to take Lynch under the knife, but now the two are chatting and laughing, something is wrong.

Lynch laughed loudly after hearing this, "This is not a funny joke, even if you are the mascot, you will be the most dazzling one in this empire."

He briefly expressed his position. The Prime Minister smiled tactfully and shook his arms, "Let's have a private chat when we have time..."

Lynch restrained his smile slightly, "I'm looking forward to that day!"

The two looked at each other and let go of each other's hands.

Watching the prime minister walking towards the next group, Lynch had a smile on his lips, it was just a simple smile, it didn't mean anything.

The two simple sentences of the two have actually explained a lot of content. Before long, the restless little nobles around will start to inquire about some of the key points.
