Section 254 Chapter 73 Victorian Cabinet Meeting

Victoria, Londinium, Iron Palace, evening.

An emergency meeting is going on in the Iron Palace, and the people participating in this meeting are even more important.

Not only Wei Na attended in person, but Teresia listened as a consultant.Mayor Arthur and a number of ministerial figures from government departments were present.Not only that, this meeting also specially summoned Cairns, the director of the [Lentinium Core City] Financial Exchange and the current chairman of the Lentinium Entrepreneurs Federation.

You ask why Ernest and Winster, the two extremes of the two royal families, were not present?

It's very simple, because today's matter has nothing to do with the military, secret intelligence, or demons, so there is no reason for these two to appear on this occasion.

This is a meeting limited to the "economic and political" level.

Wei Na is the nominal moderator of the meeting, but in fact the process is promoted by the mayor Arthur who has been instructed by Wei Na. Wei Na generally does not speak, and only expresses her own opinions and questions at the end of the discussion.

Arthur stood up, bowed to Wei Na, and then pressed his hands to signal everyone present to be quiet.Although no one was actually talking.

He coughed lightly, and said:

"Then, the consultation meeting on the "New Wales Construction Plan" and the "Victoria Immigration Act" will begin. Please note that this meeting is the final meeting, and the conclusions made here will be implemented in the form of legislation in a week's time All over the country, please pay attention to your manners and words, and don't lose your manners in front of the emperor."

After scanning the crowd present and confirming that everyone nodded, Arthur officially announced:

"Then, the meeting begins, and the Minister of Mobile City Engineering, Rebis, will speak first. Let me introduce the construction of New Wales County to you."

After Arthur finished speaking, he sat down, and instead, the chubby woman named Rebis stood up, bowed in Wei Na's direction, and then said:

"Everyone, at the behest of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, the construction of New Wales has been compared to the Silicon Valley state of Columbia, adopting the design concept of focusing on the whole economy, supplemented by politics, weakening the military, and canceling the super-large city defense of the traditional mobile city. The gun design was replaced by more ports and dock facilities. A large number of areas in the city were involved in the scientific research and development zone, and only the heavy fire defense in the core city [Walesburg] area was retained. In order to maximize the efficiency of regional development and utilization. "

Leibby paused and added:

"Of course, although it is said to be the benchmark for the Silicon Valley state, Victoria will only do better than Columbia. After the mobile city [New Wales County] is officially completed, it will become the undoubted Terra scientific research center. Victoria will start from here. Start step by step, step by step to regain the technological hegemony that has slipped away from us!"

Rebes's tone was passionate.He still remembered the years when he was just born, when Victoria swept across the land with the technology of steam armor and forged the glory of the empire on which the sun never sets, but to this day, the steam-Origin Stone industry that Victorians were proud of back then has been ridiculed For a joke behind the times.The oppressive power of the steam armored knights is no longer what it used to be. The newly-emerged Ursus Empire, with its elite warriors, warlocks, drones, and Wendigo, cooperated with the almost unsolvable open space of the shield guards to take away Victoria's power. Military hegemony, the land area once approached Victoria.

What made him most unacceptable was that Colombia, whom they had once looked down upon and regarded as a traitor, had actually grown up relying on technology step by step. After mastering the most advanced science and technology of Terra and taking away Victoria's technological hegemony, And staring at Victoria's last economic hegemony.

If it hadn't been for His Royal Highness Wayne's layout of the world, using a small chess piece from the Loken water tank to overturn the entire chessboard in Columbia, perhaps the current Victoria would really fall from the altar.

Technological hegemony, economic hegemony, military hegemony, these are all things that belong to Victoria, but they just slipped away from the hands of the motherland. Rebis's determination and perseverance to regain them are better than Colombia and Ursus to keep theirs Determination is a hundred times stronger!

And now, when they take the first step, New Wales will be another miracle of Victoria after the unfallen city of Londinium!It will also be a symbol of this era when Victoria reigns supreme again!

Wei Na nodded, which was considered to have approved Rebis' report.

The progress of the construction of New Wales County is gratifying, which means that my brother's plan is advancing in an orderly manner. When New Wales County is established, the large enterprises that are now crowded in the [Lentinium Core City] will move to New Wales County. Take some of the urban stress out of Londinium.At the same time, these large-scale enterprises will also serve as pilot projects in New Wales, starting the first batch of pilot projects for Victorian national holding companies.

Nationalized enterprises control the lifeline of the economy.These things are taken for granted by my brother, and they have to be done. According to him, the Great Yan Empire, which is thousands of miles away and has nothing to do with the world, completed this series of reforms thousands of years ago. Guaranteeing people's livelihood is the foundation of the stability of that empire.

Victoria wants to last for a long time. Even if it cannot copy the Yan system, it is still necessary to learn from it and carry out localized optimization reforms.

"The construction work in New Wales is not over yet. I hope you will work harder, and Victoria hopes that everyone will do their part."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Everyone responded in unison.

"Then, the next topic is the second topic, which needs to be discussed intensively."

The city magistrate Arthur answered, after a moment of deliberation, he said,

"In relation to the development and implementation of the Victorian Immigration Act."

"To be honest, although this law was proposed by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, hoping to win over the homeless civilians and cutting-edge scientific and technological talents in the Colombian civil war, I have reservations about this bill."

Arthur took the lead in expressing himself.

Wei Na glanced at him in surprise.Arthur didn't dare to meet Wei Na's eyes, he sat down on his seat with his head down, and began to say nothing.

From his standpoint, the word "opposition" cannot be said. After all, this bill was submitted by the Prince of Wales himself. Discuss to see if there are any omissions or deficiencies, so that he can make up for it, and it is definitely not the meaning of letting the cabinet discuss whether to pass the bill.

But Arthur did not approve of this bill in his heart.

Bring in Colombians?Even if there are strict restrictions on the introduction of refugees and top talents, the purpose is to fill the talent void after the completion of New Wales County, and by the way weaken Columbia, resulting in a large brain drain.But Arthur still found it difficult to accept.

He said that he has reservations, which is actually an obvious "I object."

A Theresa, she is the lover of the Prince of Wales, she is also modest and polite, and her ability should not be underestimated. His Highness Wayne loves him, she loves His Highness Wayne, and His Majesty Wayne has no objection. It belongs to the Royal Household, Arthur I don't have the guts to take care of it.

The Sarkaz, a group of homeless wretches, got on the lap of His Royal Highness Wayne, and caught up with Victoria's clipper. There were also brave fighters like Shirtle and Muyan in it. Victoria reluctantly accepts the person who offered the offer, which can also show Victoria's generosity. Anyway, Victoria is also happy to be against Rutland.

But Colombians?

Those traitors and descendants of traitors, arrogant and ignorant nouveau riche.Why did His Royal Highness take them in?

For humanitarian reasons?

Victoria has no shortage of labor, nor is it short of cutting-edge talent.Victoria had done nothing wrong with Columbia.

His Royal Highness just changed his name and repeated what Columbia had done in public.During this period, Victoria didn't even use channels to promote and publicize, and Columbia itself collapsed.

Was it the government of Victoria that abandoned them?Is it His Royal Highness Wayne?No, His Royal Highness just exposed the truth and freed them from the fate of being deceived. It was the Colombian government that abandoned them. They were unwilling to shoulder the responsibility and indulged in internal strife and making money all day long, which ended up like this end.

His Royal Highness Wayne is a good guy, and the upper class of Columbia is a bad guy.You don't point the gun at the Colombian government, you point the gun at Vinn and ask Vinn to take over the refugee mess?

Joke, was Victoria a bully?

Wei Na can more or less understand Arthur's thoughts, and she doesn't understand the intention of Brother Wen En's move, so she can only sigh.In order to prevent the atmosphere at the meeting from becoming rigid, she planned to temporarily suspend the discussion on this topic, and wait until her brother came back to talk about it.

"About your question, I think I may be able to answer your Highness Bruce's thoughts. He once told me about this matter."

Suddenly, Teresia raised her hand and said boldly.

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on this transparent Sarkaz woman.

Their eyes were surprised, confused, puzzled, even angry and unacceptable.

In their view, this is an earth-shattering event. Since the history of Victoria, there has never been a Sarkaz who dictated to them in Victoria's cabinet meeting.

What are the Sarkaz?Homeless, violent maniac.Although Teresia's arrival made these old-fashioned people feel a little better, prejudice is the most deeply rooted thing, and it is far more difficult to eradicate it than ore disease.

Not to mention, Teresia still seemed to want to refute Arthur's point of view.

Some people couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to stand up and let the audience in the "auditorium" sit down obediently.

However, Wei Na knocked on the table.

The venue suddenly became quiet again from the restlessness.

Queen Victoria showed a faint smile at Queen Kazdel.

You helped me before, but this time it's my turn to help you.

Speak freely, Teresia, no one will bother you unless they want to confront the imperial power!

I'm also curious, what did my brother say to you that my sister, whose blood is thicker than water, never knew?

Chapter 255 Chapter 74 Educational Hegemony

Whether it is from the time of living together or the blood relationship between each other, Wei Na firmly believes that the connection between herself and her brother is stronger than that of Teresia and her brother.Could there be something that she didn't even know, but Wayne specifically told Teresia?

The answer may be simple, because Teresia is the only person in Terra who has witnessed a corner of Wayne's memory.He is also the only person who can witness Wayne's memory.The Demon King's Origin Stone skills, Wayne's approval, and the close relationship between the two determined that only Teresia could understand and support Wayne's seemingly absurd decisions in the eyes of the people of Terra.

"I know what Mr. Arthur is worried about. The influx of a large number of laborers into Victoria will cause serious social problems."

Refugees are a very, very troublesome thing. Wayne has a deep understanding of this. He once traveled to Paris, France in his previous life. On Charles de Gaulle Square, he did not see the French sweeping across the European continent, nor did he see the maintainers who raised their hands and surrendered. Didn't even see the German troops on parade, what did he see?

Under the Arc de Triomphe are a large number of dilapidated tents, as well as refugees from the land of the Fourth World War.

In order to attract labor to make up for the stagnation of development caused by the low birth rate in developed countries, the Gauls did not expect that the problem was not solved, but also induced a series of problems that should not have existed.

Victoria had to take this issue seriously.Although the people of Colombia generally do not have a sense of national honor and national identity, they also speak the same language as Victoria, and they belonged to the same family a hundred years ago.But Victoria still has to be cautious about this matter.

so....

"But maybe Mr. Arthur and you are not aware that what His Royal Highness Wen En enacted is not the "Refugee Act" but the "Victoria Immigration Act."

The difference of one word, the difference of a few centimeters, and the difference of thousands of miles.

Wei Na lowered her head thoughtfully.It's not the refugee law, but the immigration law. One is right for things but not people, and the other is right for people and not things.

It is true that this law of Wien is promulgated today, and it is difficult not to make people logically speculate that this is a law specially formulated by him to eat up the Colombians and pack them away.But in fact, Wayne thinks farther than this.

Victoria can't stay closed forever. History has proven that the closed-door policy cannot continue.Hegemony is a sweet thing, but the longer it is occupied, the easier it is to attract encirclement.For Victoria to have a future, there must be a planned opening.From New Wales as a pilot and window, to the gradual opening of border mobile cities.Standing alone is not spring, only win-win cooperation can create the future.

The "Immigration Act" will play a very important role in it.

The reason why this law was opposed by Arthur was that the purchase price for the "cutting-edge technological talents" evaluated by Wayne seemed a bit high.But Wayne said, "Is it high? It's really not high." In Wayne's eyes, cutting-edge technological talents, what is that?

Scientific researchers like Saria and Hemer can only be regarded as the bottom line, and advanced ones like Kelsey and Loken Williams (only from an academic level, a person who can manipulate the empire of consciousness in a scientific way Scientists are indeed called geniuses), such people are worthy of the adjective cutting-edge.The examination and approval of relevant personnel will be decided by the royal family in person to ensure that there will be no people who take advantage of the troubled waters.

And even if they join Victoria under this law, Wayne will ensure that they will not enjoy super-national treatment, which is disgusting for their own people.The resources they can enjoy will be won by themselves based on their scientific research results.Wayne also keeps their resources secret.

As for the rest, as immigrants, people who do not apply for citizenship but only residence permits, Wayne will not accept a large number of grassroots people.It's not that Wayne doesn't want to save, and Wayne is not Louis XVI, and he doesn't know how to sell his head to aid the United States. He knows that the influx of excess labor will impact the market, so he can't do that.

"The target of His Highness Bruce's plan is students."

Theresa said:

"I believe everyone understands that young people are the future of our country. History has proved that the reason why Colombia was able to surpass Victoria in terms of technology at one time was because of their young, energetic and creative scientists. Where did these scientists come from?"

"Victoria Royal College of Six."

Theresa concluded.Arthur and the Minister of Education exchanged glances, and the Minister of Education bowed his head a little guilty.

On this point, the Sarkaz woman was right.

The Victoria Royal Six Colleges are the six most famous colleges in the entire Terra, and there have been countless existences with shocking names in ancient and modern times.There are the founders of the Victoria Empire, the developers of the steam armor series, and the dabblers in the realm of the Empire of Consciousness. Even long ago, Aslan's bloodline has not reached the time when only two brothers and sisters are left, and they are still prosperous. , Even the royal family will liberate the child from the shackles of the royal private education and send him to the Royal Military Academy and other places to study.

But the Royal Academy has always had a problem. Because of the xenophobia and deep-rooted pride of the Victorians, foreign students and exchange students in the Royal Academy often have to choose to leave Victoria after graduation. It’s not that they don’t want to stay, but that Victoria is unwilling to accept. .

"For a long time, the fact that Victoria's institutions have cultivated a large number of talents for the development of foreign countries has been happening. His Royal Highness Bruce once mentioned this to me when he founded the Kadsdale Branch of the Royal Military Academy. He wants to reverse this situation. situation, the first thing is to start with reducing the brain drain.”

"The immigration law seems to be aimed at the Colombian incident, but in fact it follows the trend and introduces a law aimed at Victoria itself. The purpose is that when the eyes of the whole land are attracted to Colombia, the smooth development of a law that seems to be against the Columbia’s plan to draw wages from the bottom. And His Royal Highness Bruce’s real purpose has never been just Colombia’s present, but also its future, the future of all countries on the earth.”

"As long as this plan is successful, Victoria will be able to unknowingly reverse the situation of the Sixth Royal Court above without anyone noticing that everyone in the land of Terra acquiesces and thinks she is watching a play, and even go one step further, making Victoria The universities in the country cultivate talents for the countries of Terra, and the talents of the countries transformed into land study hard for a green card in Victoria."

His Royal Highness Wayne is an undisguised conspiracy. Once the law is promulgated, if other countries do not promulgate similar bills, then they will inevitably not be able to compete with Victoria, and a large number of talents will inevitably be lost.And even if they introduced a similar bill, if they didn't lower their immigration standards, how could they compete for Victoria, which has economic, military, and future technological hegemony, in this "talent war"?

The subtlety of Wayne's move is that he took advantage of the special time of Columbia's collapse to launch this conspiracy, so that everyone, including Victoria's own people, felt that this was a plan to draw wages from the bottom of Columbia. Few of the leaders of the countries would have thought that this law is not only aimed at Colombia, but also them.These people eat melons with a smile, and they have to eat their own heads when they eat.

And when they reacted and formulated similar laws, they had to lower their standards because they couldn't compete with Victoria, which had a huge advantage. At that time, Colombian refugees would naturally be handled by someone.

"Victoria pinpoints, the country that reacts first will only have leftovers, and those who don't react or react slowly, can only watch their talents go abroad in vain, and there is no way to stop them."

Arthur muttered to himself, and his intuition told Arthur that this plan would work.

After all, just now, none of the many flexible minds in their entire cabinet has seen the true meaning hidden under His Royal Highness Wayne’s plan—people will only guard against a knife hidden in a smile, and a needle hidden in a cotton. With a knife?Clearly stabbing Columbia, actually backstabbing All Terra.

"I have finished speaking, thank you very much for listening carefully."

Theresa nodded slightly to express her gratitude.There was a moment of silence in the hall of the cabinet meeting, led by the chief of the cabinet, Mayor Arthur, who took the initiative to applaud, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

..........

Afterwards, on the way Wei Na and Teresia returned to the office, Wei Na asked curiously:

"When did my brother talk to you about this? Why didn't I ever know?"

Teresia pursed her lips, shook her head and said:

"Mr. Bruce actually didn't talk to me about this in detail."

Wei Na was shocked and opened her eyes wide:

"Then what you just said in front of them, are you making up now?"

"It's not..." Teresia shook her head again.

These things cannot be regarded as what Wenn told her, but what she "saw" in Wenn's brain simulation.

Perhaps speaking of it, the cabinet members, including Wei Na, would find it inconceivable, but it is true that Wei En has already started preparing for all kinds of things since the time of the northern border rebellion.

Wayne Bruce hides many, many secrets. Even if Teresia has entered into Wayne's consciousness once, she can only see through it.
