Gold is Justice

George laughed suddenly, as if he had heard something very funny.He kept tapping the table, as if trying to hold back his wild laughter.After a long time, he was able to calm down and speak again——

"Oh... indeed! I don't deny that your president's management is indeed very good. But do you know? She has a very fatal flaw."

shortcoming?

Regarding this point, Ariel, who has always been on the second floor of the bar and relied on the flower fairies to convey information, was also slightly taken aback.

"The elder sister of the president has many shortcomings, such as not being able to fight. It may be okay to formulate a big strategy when fighting, but it is not good if you really want her to go to the battlefield and deploy troops!"

Ke Ke was very honest, pointing out Ariel's shortcomings directly.Jelly next to her frowned when she heard it, and just wanted to stop it, but found that it was too late.

At this point, George on the opposite side laughed again, waved his hand, and said: "Of course these are also shortcomings, but they are not the most important. Hahaha! So until now, you still don't understand where your president's shortcomings are? Then Let me tell you! The fatal flaw of your president is—"

With that said, George leaned his head forward again, and said in a slightly mocking tone——

"She is still a businessman in essence."

On the second floor, Ariel's body trembled violently!Vaguely, she felt that some major flaws in herself had been captured.

Underneath, George raised his hair and said with a smile: "She is a businessman at heart. No matter how much she wants to change, the habits accumulated since she was a child may not change even if it takes her whole life. Because of this, even with her personal strength, she can ensure that the area in Pelican City remains prosperous and stable. Then, when Pelican City urgently needs to be expanded? Wait until your power becomes wider? At that time, do you have to Will your president go to every village to check the finances of every town?"

"It's impossible to do it. I heard that your president is already very busy when I was in Pelican Town. Then how does she want to get busier in the future? Since she can't keep busy, she must take some Other people do the work. So since she’s a businessman, she’s essentially letting other people of her type manage those expanded areas.”

"Xiehu City, yes. Kingfisher Town, yes. Honglu Town, yes. Feige Town, yes. Baiquan City, yes."

"Since merchants manage the city, even if every merchant is as clean and honest as your president, since they are merchants, it means doing business. As long as they are doing business, there must be losses and profits."

"When you earn, you can be happy with me and everyone. But, what about when you lose? Don't look at your prosperity now, God knows that if your economy is in recession one day, you, and your businessmen How will the managers treat those pariahs?"

"Let me just talk about my thoughts. You have developed very smoothly in the past three or four years, and the reason for the smooth development is on the one hand because of the element machine, and on the other hand because of the first three years of the past four years. There has been a famine all the time, but you can maintain food operations here. What if there is a famine in your place one day? Can you really continue to be as stable as you are now?"



-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The more George spoke, the more confident he became. He took out a box from his pocket, opened it, and found a row of cigarettes inside.He took one out of it, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, held it in his mouth, lit it, took a breath, and exhaled the cloud——

"Cigarettes, good name, good stuff. But now the grassroots management of the vampires who make cigarettes is not the beautiful young lady, right? It's the elders among the vampires. But in case your business is not good that day, these vampires will use profit Can merged gangs really stick together? That's true for vampires, and even more so for other humans."

After taking another breath, George knocked on the cigarette box in his hand and said, "Your guild rose up through rebellion, don't look at those nonsense theories about whether the empire collapses or not, you can provide food for those pariahs, pariahs Only then will you be with you. And in the future, once you can’t distribute rice, the untouchables who know that you rebelled and started will also rebel against you. At this time, it is most able to stabilize those untouchables and give them hope. Yes, it is our religion. Do you want to prevent it from happening? Yes, our religion can help you relieve the pain of those people and make them feel that they are suffering because they are not religious enough. You want to maintain the legitimacy of the rule? Yes, We can turn your guild leader into a saint, that lady will never make mistakes, and all the mistakes are made by you servants who don't know how to listen to the holy will."

"In this way, do you still think that our Holy See is useless to you? If you still feel that you are not qualified... Hehe, I might as well tell you something more."

This Templar is now shocking everyone with his powerful aura, not only the members of Mermaid Song in front of him, but also those same priests behind him——

"The rebel army is not the only one of yours. Guess, when the other rebels are struggling to develop, how can they ensure internal unity?"

Jelly thought for a while, and then said in a startling voice, "Could it be... Could it be!"

George chuckled and nodded: "That's right, as long as the rebels are slightly larger, they basically need priests inside to maintain them. Sigh~~~ Over the years, the hand of the Holy See of Light has really stretched out It is very long, so that every citizen of the Blue Bay Empire is bathed in the light of the Holy Light. So even if they betray the empire, they cannot betray the Holy Light. Let us sincerely praise - the Holy Light is protecting us!"

The Templar suddenly stood up from his seat, raised his hands above his head, and raised his head, the slick emphasis on his face immediately became extremely devout!And his compliment now sounds from the heart, and it doesn't seem to have the slightest falsehood at all.

"And in the end, in order to prevent you from thinking that what I said is just one-sided."

After the praise, the noble and holy color on the Templar's face disappeared immediately, and quickly changed into that pair of sneering expressions. He sat down and asked a question that Jelly and Coco couldn't answer at all——

"Do you think that if your business friends are really more willing to believe in the republican philosophy of your president, why are they so anxious to greet us immediately after the Holy See said that they are coming? "

In the whole bar, although it is still so lively.

There were two drunkards fighting in the corner, and the people next to them kept fanning the flames and cheering.

On the other side, a bard was holding a lute and singing some unknown tunes, but both the sound of the lute and the singing were covered by the noise.

The sound of many drinkers drinking and yelling has become a regular program of this bar every night.

However, these noisy sounds that seemed to be in full swing turned into a complete silence in Coco's ears.

And all the words that hovered in Coco's mind, only the words of the Templar Knight remained, and they couldn't dissipate for a long time...

Similarly, for Ariel who was listening upstairs, she felt a different feeling in her heart.

Businessmen reap profits.

Since profit is important, it will feel that profit is more important than other affairs.

It is precisely because of this that almost every businessman has some kind of religious sustenance, and feels that whether a certain business is successful or not is related to whether he has worshiped the gods before signing the contract.

Although Ariel has lived in the duke's mansion since she was a child, and the Holy See doesn't give her a good feeling, so she doesn't have much religious sustenance in her heart.But sometimes, when I have finished all the preparations, I still pray to an unknown god...

If I am like this, how can other businessmen be exempt?

That being the case, even if he resolutely rejects religion to enter Pelican City, does it seem to cause some kind of resentment?

Is it really?

"Is it really?"

After thinking for a long time, Ke Ke's voice stunned Ariel upstairs.

The necromancer folded his hands on his chest and said slowly——

"I have said so much, but the key question is not that you want to establish your religious power in Pelican City, that is, at the heart of the Mermaid Army? I will never forget what you have done in the Holy See of Light. You can even assassinate your own emperor, so can all these rhetoric be useful?"

In this regard, George knocked himself on the head, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Such a smile made Coco feel a little uncomfortable, as if everything was in his expectation.

"We didn't kill the emperor, but you. Of course, you can never admit it, but this is an established fact."

Ke Ke pinched the staff in her arms, and Jelly next to her quickly pressed her hand to keep her calm.

Seeing this, George sneered and continued, "But it doesn't matter if you don't accept it. Then I'll put it another way—benefits."

"Everything in the world is nothing but interests, you are, we are, and even your president, that big beauty is the same."

"Since they are all interests, as long as the interests are together, we can cooperate naturally. If the interests are not together, then the cooperation will naturally collapse. Now the beautiful president should be listening to me somewhere? Hehehe, I I believe that as a businessman, her perception of my words should not be outrageous."

Jelly swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Cooperation...According to what you said, cooperating with you may really be in line with the interests of both of us...But I still have a question."

George: "Please."

Jelly: "If we also need a religion to help us maintain the management work at the grassroots level... then how can we trust you?"

"Hahahaha! Good question."

George patted the table, then drank the wine in the glass, and at the same time greeted the owner of the small spirits over there, thanking the delicious glass.Then, he put the cup in front of the two——

"Our Guangming Holy See only needs a nominal sub-Holy See to be established in Pelican City. In addition, the Holy See can not control this sub-Holy See at all. All management and personnel arrangements can be decided by you. Let you arrange your own Trustworthy people, if you still feel that you cannot maintain your supervisory power, then I can't say that you are cautious, I can only say that you are too incompetent."

After finishing speaking, he turned around, took the priests of the Holy See behind him, and strode towards the gate of the tavern. While walking, he waved to the two of them and said with a smile——

"Okay! The wine is delicious, and the atmosphere is also very good! I really like your city. Let's find a place to stay by ourselves. If there is anything else, let's talk tomorrow! By the way, there is another gift for your president tomorrow. , Say hello to me! Hahaha!"

The door of the tavern opened, and a little bit of spring cold drifted in.But soon, the door closed again, and the whole tavern was once again surrounded by warmth and excitement.

The people here were still drinking and singing, and some people had had enough and fell asleep on the table.

The time has also reached midnight.

At this moment, Jelly and Coco looked at each other in blank dismay.But soon, they saw Ariel slowly coming down from the second floor.

Ariel looked at the two magicians and looked at the confusion on their faces, she also smiled slightly, and said in a very gentle voice: "Okay, it's getting late, go back to sleep."

Jelly thought of what George said just now, and immediately stood up: "President, we can discuss this matter together..."

Ariel couldn't help but chuckled, and said, "Didn't I discuss it with you when I encountered a major issue? Well, go back to sleep, and I will have contact with the Holy See again tomorrow."

Coaxing the two young men, Ariel was still smiling.

This has become her habit, even if she didn't pretend to be deliberately, this smile has already surfaced like an instinct.

Seeing Ariel's smile, the two young mages could only turn around and leave after glancing at each other.

After they walked out of the tavern, Ariel came to the counter and sat down. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Is there any refreshing drink?"

The owner of the small spirits glanced at Ariel, and after a moment of silence, he turned around, and in less than a minute, he made a glass of pitch-black drink and placed it in front of her.

Ariel picked it up and smelled it a little, and felt a sour taste.Looking at the black juice like swill, he seemed a little hesitant.

But thinking that this drink was given by the little liquor boss in front of her, she frowned and took a sip.

very bitter.

Not only bitter, but also a sour taste.

This taste immediately stimulated the taste buds, and made Ariel feel excited!At this moment, she really suspected that the boss had really served her the swill!

"what is this?"

The owner of the small spirits bent down, took out a milk jug from under the counter, and said, "The drink my brother brought me recently said it has a very unique southern and exotic taste. Are you sober?" Ariel was slightly taken aback, don't Said, just took a sip, and the unpleasant taste woke her up.

She smacked her lips, looked at the pitch-black cup in front of her again, and said, "Even if I'm not awake, I was awakened by the smell."

"Then add some of this. Even I can't get used to drinking pure ones from the beginning."

The little liquor boss tilted the milk jug slightly and poured a little into the black water.After the pure black liquid gradually turned into a slightly yellowish coffee color, he put down the milk jug, took out some sugar cubes from the cabinet next to it, and put two in it.In the end, he took out the jar specially for mint leaves, took out a mint leaf and decorated it in the cup, and then pushed it in front of Ariel again.

"Try it now, sip the mint leaves before drinking."

Ariel frowned, but out of trust, he still held the cup and sipped the mint leaves, and took a sip of the liquid.

Strange to say, the originally unpalatable liquid suddenly became slightly more delicious.

"What is this?" Ariel asked, "It feels a bit like coffee, but it doesn't seem to be exactly the same."

The owner of the small spirits put the jar back and said: "It's very similar to coffee, it's all made from beans, but it's not exactly the same. The color is also a little darker than the local coffee, it looks like completely black paint." I heard from my brother that this drink, which is called bean juice in the local area, can connect with God with just one sip, and it can protect people who return home late from being infested by demons.”

Ariel smiled wryly, holding the drink called soybean juice and said with a wry smile: "I really hit a ghost today, I'm a god all day long. Where are there so many gods in this world?"

Xiao Lijiu glanced at her, and slowly said: "This world may not have gods in the sense of your human concepts, but human beings always hope that such gods can exist. Human beings are really interesting creatures. On the one hand I don’t want to be controlled by others, and on the other hand, I hope that there is an existence in the dark that is enslaving me. Faced with this kind of enslavement, human beings not only don’t feel disgusted, but instead pray for the protection of that existence, that is, the god.”

Ariel chuckled: "You mean human beings are cheap?"

Little Liquor shook his head: "Perhaps, what humans really don't like is being ruled by something that can be seen and touched."

Ariel took another sip, and after getting used to it, she felt that the taste seemed pretty good, and then said: "That's right, the more specific something is, the less we humans want to be controlled by it. But if something exists The feeling is very vague, it doesn't matter if we humans are controlled... Ha, after all, this means that if you don't care about me, I will believe in you. If you abandon me or control me too strictly, I will say you Is it a villain? Hahaha!"

Seeing the girl in front of him laughing again, the owner of Little Liquor also nodded slightly.He raised the wine glass he was wiping in his hand, looked at it, and after confirming that there were no stains on it, he nodded slightly and said, "It seems that you are in a good mood?"

Of course Ariel was in a good mood, because between these few words, she already understood how to deal with the Holy See of Light.
