Chapter 785 What is politics?

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Li Yu’s selection criteria are actually very simple. First look at the compatibility with Saturday. If there is no problem, then look at the skill requirements. Even the second point is not particularly important.

A full-stack engineer like Niu Xiangui was reincarnated by Li Yu and went to Bratis. Anyway, with his modern education and cognition ahead of the times, he can always be put to use, but it's just a matter of size.

Li Yu is actually no longer short of the 1200 points of faith. In addition, Shuangxiujiao is indeed in short supply of people, so the selection criteria for time travellers have been relaxed accordingly.

It's just a relaxation of restrictions on the second point. Some of the people Li Yu has recently signed are mainly based on their physiognomy. As long as the person is okay, he will sign them all even if they have duplicate occupations or are temporarily unavailable.

As for the social contribution that Yang Zhengde emphasizes, that is what is considered when selecting representatives and committee members, and has nothing to do with Li Yu.

Therefore, no matter how much his philanthropy flourishes or how much he contributes to social stability and economic prosperity, Li Yu doesn't care.

It's not that these are unimportant, but it's just that big guys obviously can't pee in a pot and reincarnate Lao Yang. After a while, Li Yu will probably have to find a way to let him ascend to heaven again in Bratis. Why bother to find this for both parties?

What kind of trouble?

After Li Yu returned to the company, he saw that he still had some time before getting off work, so he took the time to go back to Bratis.

The female lord was lying on the table, looking at something attentively, her ears twitching from time to time, and she didn't even notice Li Yu's appearance.

Li Yu went over and took a look, it was a blackmail letter.

No, it should be said to be a letter from home reporting safety. In this war, the female lord captured many noble generals of the coalition forces, and the dragon could hardly hang it on its back.

Now these people have written family letters and are going to send them to their wives, children and parents, but before that they still need to get them to Miss Rabbit for her to read first.

Li Yu looked at it for a while and then asked, "How much did you earn this time?"

"About 700,000," the girl said casually. Then she remembered something, raised her head and said in surprise, "Merlin, you're back. I thought you wouldn't come today!"

"Seven hundred thousand golden lions, so many?"

The female lord nodded, then shook her head, "The total ransom in the letter is more than 700,000, but the other party will definitely bargain, so the final amount probably won't be that much.

"But there should still be five to six million. This is my bottom line. In addition, almost half of it was contributed by Tristan. The Penlos family is one of the twelve nobles in the empire and has always occupied the Elk Valley.

.

"The land there is much richer than in the West. Their family has been in charge of that land for almost two thousand years, and they must have accumulated a lot. This time we have to let them shed more blood."

Speaking of this, Miss Rabbit doesn't feel sleepy anymore.

"After I get this money, I plan to use 200,000 to reward the vassals and warriors below, and to care for the dead and injured."

Although the female lord is quite stingy, she has always been very interesting in treating the people below her. Especially in war, she is self-taught and has mastered the unique skill of throwing coins.

Thinking back to the few battles she had fought before, she had always thrown coins all the way, and she had won every big victory.

Li Yu asked again, "How much money do you have on hand now?"

"Almost 70,000. In fact, I had a lot before, but most of it was used to build the city. Recently, I have been busy expanding the army and buying food, armor and other things. I don't spend three or two, and all the money I saved before is almost used up.

"

Miss Rabbit didn't know it, but she was shocked when she calculated that war was too expensive.

Especially for a newly rising aristocratic family like the Arias family with a relatively weak foundation, fighting a grand battle of this level would almost wipe out all of her family wealth.

Fortunately, there were Tristan and others who came to help in times of need. If they could get the six or seven hundred thousand, not only would they not lose money, but the female lord would also become rich overnight.

Li Yu suggested, "Well, wait until you get the money and then take out 100,000. You will also take 100,000 during the weekend break. Let's set up a reconstruction fund with a total of 200,000."

"Reconstruction fund, what is that?" the female lord asked curiously.

"You can understand it as a kind of interest-free or low-interest loan, provided to the noble lords participating in this battle. Many of their territories have been occupied by the Wing Tribe people or their minions, and they left again and again.

In such a hurry, many belongings were not taken away in time.

"Even if the territory is recaptured in the future, reconstruction is estimated to require a large amount of money. They should have captured some prisoners themselves, which can be exchanged for money, but if there is still a gap for the rest, they can apply for the reconstruction fund.

"Li Yu explained.

Miss Rabbit was a little hesitant when she heard this. One hundred thousand is quite a lot, and there is no interest on lending it out. It would be a loss no matter how you look at it.

But when I think about it, many people obeyed her arrangements and brought soldiers and family members to Green Field to gather, and everyone even sent people out to carry out very dangerous harassment missions.

The female lord gritted her teeth and agreed. Of course, the most important thing was that the idea came from Li Yu, and it was Li Yu that Miss Rabbit trusted the most.

Since Li Yu said this, it must have meaning.

This time she guessed correctly.

Li Yu took Ilea to participate in the establishment of the reconstruction fund in order to further expand the influence of Shuangxiujiao and the Arias family in the Western Region.

A certain great leader once summarized three magic weapons after reviewing the experience of eighteen years of revolutionary struggle, one of which is the united front.

In popular terms, it is called making many friends and few enemies.

When Li Yu saw this sentence when he was in school, he didn't think it had anything to do with it. It wasn't until he entered the workplace that he gradually realized how valuable it was.

The great leader actually broke down the core rules of the political game in the simplest and most understandable words.

Yes, politics can be complicated or simple, but it is actually a game of uniting the majority and bullying a small group. The voting system derived from this is just the embodiment of this rule.

Li Yu held the girl's hand in front of everyone before, and now he takes the female lord to set up a fund together, all in order to help Ilea win enough allies.

Thanks to those Yi tribesmen, the old order has been shattered, but the new order has not yet been established.

In the next continent of Bratis, careerists and heroes will appear one after another.

A person who has a legendary record and a certain prestige, who has the protection of the true god behind her, and who also holds many IOUs from noble families. At least in the Western Region, I believe that most people will not object to her becoming the new master of this continent.

After that, Li Yu chatted with the female lord about the next target of the resistance army. It happened that the moonlight was nice tonight, so Miss Rabbit suggested to go for a walk on the city wall to talk.
