Chapter 622 Management Committee

Everyone turned their attention to the king.

Rodney XVIII said solemnly: "Given that we still know too little information about magic, investigating this mysterious power and collecting information about them is our first priority."

He looked around at everyone: "We should summarize the impact of this power when it appears on a large scale to mortals, and judge the attitude towards magic based on the overall interests of the Aldo Kingdom, rather than rushing to flatter the Holy See or Maintaining relationships with Eaton and jumping to conclusions without fully understanding things.”

Palace Prime Minister Rupert twirled his beard and kept nodding, "Your Majesty makes sense."

The king's words greatly changed his attitude towards Rodney XVIII.

The other ministers also agreed.

"We will wait and see for a period of time and will not express our position, disapproval or support."

He looked at the Minister of Foreign Affairs and said, "Sir Van Lundin, if the Holy See requires us to express our position, we will try our best to deal with it."

Count Valentine nodded, "I will do my best, but I don't know how much pressure the Holy See will put on us."

Rodney XVIII thought for a while, "It's okay for us to give some verbal support, but if the Holy See asks us to provide substantial help, send troops, sponsor supplies, etc., then it won't work. I think the Holy See will understand Our difficulties, we...after all, we still have domestic enemies to deal with."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Count Valentine responded.

"In the meantime." Rodney XVIII looked at the Minister of Intelligence, "Mr. Merlin, you will be responsible for investigating the magic and wizards. While we still maintain a good relationship with Eaton - in the future, Who knows for sure - send people there to collect information, and pay attention to the attitude of the Holy See. If the Holy See shows that it is determined to extinguish this force at all costs, then we cannot rashly stand on this issue. On the opposite side of the Holy See.”

Lord Merlin stood up and said, "As you command, my lord."

The Royal Council came to a conclusion. This was the new king's first major decision on state affairs. His calmness left a good impression on Rupert and other old ministers.

After everyone dispersed, the king stayed with Paul and Catherine and invited them to dinner.

Also coming were Eileen and the king's two younger brothers.

"This is our family dinner."

Rodney XVIII looked relaxed, holding a knife and fork in his hand and eating the food placed in front of him casually.

"Ah, yes, Paul!"

"Your Majesty?" Paul, who was immersed in the food, raised his head and looked at the king.

Rodney XVIII wiped his mouth with a napkin, "As for your previous idea of ​​the so-called [Special Economic Zone], I think it is very good. Since it is very good, then we should put it into practice immediately."

Paul said approvingly: "You are really courageous, Your Majesty."

"I thought about it carefully. The companies we co-founded before are mainly concentrated around Sihanoukville. Then we can just designate that area as a special economic zone. Sihanoukville is a port city with convenient external exchanges. It is also very close to Jingyao. aspects of our management and observation.”

Paul thought for a moment and said, "This should be a very suitable place."

Rodney XVIII looked at him with hopeful eyes: "I am going to set up a...committee, haha, the new word I learned from you is called the Special Zone Management Committee. I hope you can come up with someone , as a member of the Management Committee, to provide some... guidance to other members.”

Paul replied: "In that case, then I will go back and consider who is more suitable."

The king looked at him, "Actually... I already have a candidate in mind, and I hope you can part with me. Of course, I will respect your wishes and his own wishes."

Paul asked curiously: "I wonder which lucky person can win your majesty's favor."

Rodney XVIII smiled, "You are very familiar with this person, Mylon Gardner, your ally brother."

Paul withdrew his gaze, stared at the shiny white plate in front of him, and thought carefully for a few seconds.

"This... Your Majesty, I will convey your meaning to him when I return. Myron will feel very honored. I have to say that your vision is accurate, and Myron will be a very good helper - I mean if he If you are willing to stay.”

Yes, apart from those professional technical issues, Myron knows almost everything about the West Bay, including the administrative system, organizational structure... and so on.

"Oh, of course. I treat you as friends, and I respect your personal will." Rodney XVIII said with a smile: "I am requesting rather than ordering. I will not use the king's power to ask him to fulfill his seal. The duty of the minister.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Paul said this, but he was muttering in his heart, was this a reminder to them?

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

He suddenly thought of something and asked Rodney XVIII: "Your Majesty, I have a request."

Rodney XVIII smiled and said: "Please tell me, my future brother-in-law! I will try my best to satisfy you within my ability."

Paul said: "I think you know that there are now a group of scholars gathered in the Northwest Bay, from various fields, some studying biology, some studying chemistry... Oh, it's alchemy, where we are... there are some very interesting ones. discoveries, so scholars hope to hold an academic symposium in the Northwest Bay and invite scholars from other places to share those new discoveries, discuss them together, verify them together, and even argue together, creating more sparks. ”

When Paul said this, Irene's eyes lit up as she was dining silently.

"With my own reputation, I really can't summon so many scholars from different places, which will greatly reduce the value of this academic seminar. But if this is done in the name of the king, I want to answer enough questions a strong attraction to people.”

Rodney XVIII asked, "So you want me to help?"

Paul nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"An interesting request." Rodney XVIII smiled, "I have always supported the organization of scholar exchanges, so I promise you, Paul."

But he immediately asked strangely: "But I have a doubt. As far as I know, knowledge is strictly guarded in your territory. Even Jingyao supports your patent law. You are not afraid to organize this academic seminar." …”

Paul knew what the king was saying, "Your Majesty, what we protect is invention rather than discovery. Specifically, the so-called discovery refers to the extraction of those laws that already exist in nature. Regardless of whether anyone describes it, the laws of nature are derived from The world existed there when it was born, and it does not exist just because people don’t know about it. The so-called inventions are things that people created out of thin air and did not exist before.”

Sorry everyone, there are a lot of things going on at home these days, so updates are not timely.
