Chapter 112 Treaty
Unless you are in the know, [Good Luck Bar] is just an ordinary middle-class consumption bar. They also agreed with each other that even if there was any trouble in the bar, they would not openly use extraordinary power to solve it.
White Arowana Suit.
Commonly known as pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, this trick is not exclusive to time travellers, but is the commonality of human wisdom and instinct.
Arthur and Channing didn't look good.
After they entered the bar with sad faces and found a seat to sit down, Linn's attention was attracted by these two people. When these two people came to the Squirrel Street Free Clinic, they couldn't find the right way, but Lin En pointed out the way so that these two stupid young people could go through Squirrel Street unimpeded.
Unexpectedly, we met again at the bar.
At this time, Lin En finally remembered what the familiar feeling was when he heard "Painless Apostle" for the first time in the [Lamp Holder] living room, which was what the shoe shine boy from the Youth Gang mentioned.
The two doctors didn't notice the helper sitting in another section, and they started to ask the maid to serve the wine a little dejectedly.
"Is there a situation?"
Bill noticed that Linn didn't speak for a while, but was staring in one direction intently, and followed his line of sight with some vigilance.
After all, we worked together for three weeks.
I can’t say that we have a good understanding of each other, but at least we are familiar with each other and understand some of our work performance. Bill, who was already vigilant enough, was able to keenly sense that something was wrong with Lynn, which was quite normal.
"Someone I know gave them directions before, but I regretted it later. Now that I see they are fine, I don't have to bear any psychological burden." Lin En picked up the glass to cover up, a little embarrassed. He almost did something bad with good intentions before.
"That's it."
Bill couldn't help but smile. This was the first time he had seen Lynn's abnormal sense of responsibility.
Normal people are unlikely to think about the consequences of doing something easy. If they can help, they will do so (such as helping an elderly person, picking up things and returning them to their owners), and if they can't, forget about it. Lin En's character also has this kind of normal logic, but because of the conflict between the times and three views, Lin En has set a rule for himself: If you want to help, find a way to solve the problem from the root, otherwise don't lie to yourself Please be at peace, otherwise we will continue to eat people if we help the times.
Another side effect of supermemory is that emotions are forever new. Emotions that never fade are a burden and can make people sentimental, or to put it worse, indecisive.
Lin En discovered this problem early, and in order to avoid tearing himself apart, he established guidelines for himself.
Arthur and Channing were not far from Linn's table.
With Lynn's hearing, he could barely hear their conversation in the slightly noisy bar environment. In other words, these two guys who had just obtained diagnostic qualifications did not try to hide their conversation.
"...I helped today...Hey, the medicine is not enough, I have to find a way." Arthur scratched his head.
"It's so difficult for the people down there..." Qian Ning's expression was one of pity and self-blame.
Seeing that it was not an important matter, Bill stopped caring and continued chatting and joking about the recent situation. Lin En only paid some attention to the two of them, and was also concerned about some rumors. For a young man who likes to use his brain, reading newspapers every day is to understand as much news as possible.
If you have enough information, you will not be confused by certain things.
Lynn agrees that if a being can know everything, then he is not far from omnipotence.
On the same roof, some distance away, one side was jokingly talking about the current situation and the cabinet's distress, while the other side was whispering about the misery of people's lives in the lower city. And the young gentleman who happened to be doing both suddenly felt a very absurd sense of time and space dislocation, and more of a chilling feeling that reminded him not to forget where he came from.
"Over in the capital, rumors have begun to spread in the shadow cabinet. It is said that the popular man in No. 10 sleeps with the telegraph newspaper under his pillow every day."
Extraordinary people's connections mean that they have vast supernatural powers, and they can get information about the royal capital.
The shadow cabinet here is actually different from the cabinet. The shadow cabinet is composed of the second largest opposition party, which to a certain extent restricts the largest party, which is the ruling party. And No. 10 is Terra Street, the official residence of the Prime Minister. The telegraph newspaper is actually a mockery of the people of Albion.
Ironically, the Prime Minister wished he could use telegrams to control the ministers who went to the front line to negotiate.
The current ruling party in Albion is the Laurel Party, which is the conservative old nobles. The Prime Minister, of course, is also an old aristocrat who actually performed so poorly during the war that the Shadow Labor Party couldn't wait any longer.
"Where is the currently drafted treaty?" Lin En was a little concerned about this, because the countries on the mainland that can participate in the struggle for hegemony have basically completed industrialization, and capital is crazy about an industrial country.
Capital has a profit-seeking nature.
The pursuit of profit simultaneously shows the contradiction between short-sightedness and foresight. For example, the famous capitalist will sell the rope to hang himself, but there is also World War II planned for a bigger cake.
Lin En had some knowledge of that period of history before traveling through time, so he was curious about what price the Double En Alliance planned to offer after the war. After all, the Double En Alliance had the advantage.
"There are many, and there are newspapers... Hey, hey! Miss, get me a newspaper from the bar. The latest edition, Wangdu News."
Bill remembered this, took out a penny and shouted.
Soon a newspaper was delivered to the table, and several tables nearby also came over. For a moment, the poor little girl Leticia was directly squeezed onto Lin En. The driving little girl didn't care. She smiled and hugged Lin En. The little gentleman subconsciously wanted to pull her off his body, but she stuck to him like chewing gum.
Extraordinary ability?
Lin En raised his eyebrows, looked thoughtfully at Leticia's teammates who pretended to be fine, and finally looked down at the cute driving little girl with a subtle expression.
'The city has a lot of tricks. '
The little gentleman sighed in his heart and let Leticia hug him like this.
"It seems that our Prime Minister has been very impressive." A guy who joined in the fun held a wine glass and looked at the treaty on it with a smack of his mouth.
"Can the barbarians of Hops accept such conditions?"
"Tsk tsk, who asked them to surrender decently? If they are not decent, the master will help them to be decent."
"Yes." Lin En's blood pressure rose a little.
He saw the treaty that the Shuang En Alliance made to the Hops Federation.
Translate the official language of the Shuang En Alliance: In view of the fact that the Hops Federation betrayed its promise and instigated the assassination of the mainland royal family, it bears full responsibility for this war. The quota of colonies in the Far South Continent is reduced to zero, the size of the army is restricted, the number of airships is restricted, the tonnage of the navy is restricted, land is ceded, some key territories are not allowed to be fortified, the development of the chemical industry is restricted and strictly supervised, the international market does not accept Hops currency (i.e. Jinlong) for the time being, and tariffs are renegotiated.
And, the compensation amount is as high as 10 billion gold pounds.
This is clearly an attempt to dismember the Hops Federation!
Even if Lin En doesn't understand business very well, he understands that if you want a country to pay compensation, you have to revitalize the post-war economy first, so that you can reap it in waves. Otherwise, what can you use to pay off the debt? The scrap copper and iron in the factory? Or the nuclear-powered money printing machine?
The capital of the Shuang En Alliance does not want to give the Hops Federation a way out.
