Chapter 252 Integration

Nesherro... Sitting in the car, Shire looked at the pastoral city with a dazed look. In a daze, he was almost forgotten what it was like to live in the "big coffin" in the lower city of Aepeda.

He once thought that the whole world would be like Aepeda, and cities would become cancers on the earth, crazily plundering the surrounding water resources to meet the necessary conditions for human survival. But the facts told him that there was actually another way to better solve these problems, but this was obviously not something that a remote small country like Tenomia could achieve.

Neschro's city is divided into three parts. In addition to the two living areas, there is another part that is far away from the city. What this part is responsible for is to plunder water resources to provide the use of the city.

In other words, there are also "cancers" here, but thecancers and cities themselves are separated. At the same time, the areas where thesecancers are located often choose areas with abundant water resources, and will not cause excessive plunder. After the water resources are converted into steam, they will be sent to the city to provide the necessary energy for the city to operate.

It is actually very simple to do all this, but not so simple, that is, there is a broad enough territory. Nesherro, who is in a significant period of rise, continues to conquer neighboring countries through force and continuously expand their territory, resulting in the country's borders moving outward for a considerable distance every year.

An empire with cohesion, hardship, determination and perseverance, and in the period of profit and dividends will not stop expanding for a short time. At least before the next emperor comes to power, this empire is unlikely to stop moving forward, perhaps by the next position or the next position.

The rise of Nesherro also made people here understand a truth: sometimes the more the number, the better. The value provided by an extraordinary person in war can often exceed the value provided by a hundred ordinary people for war.

But on the contrary, in the process of building society, the contributions provided by ordinary people to society exceed those of extraordinary people who do not engage in production. The entire society operates in a way that is difficult for the Shire to understand and take for granted, a completely different way from Apeda.

If Aepeda's stability is a means of ruler, then this is the art of rule.

For a family of extraordinary people, they will probably raise subordinates of ten to twenty people, some of which are citizens of the empire, and some are slaves of the empire, but these people are working hard to become supermen.

Whenever a war begins, a warrior who participates in the war often follows five to ten subordinates. The empire only needs to allocate resources to the warriors, and the warriors pay their own money to allocate resources to his subordinates. Everyone, whether it is a warrior or his subordinate, is eager to achieve more victory and more military achievements to change their destiny.

When everyone is united in such a crazy and even twisted state, they are invincible.

Recently, Charles has learned a lot of cold jokes about Nesherro, for example, people always say that Nesherro likes to fake the declaration of war.

They announced to the public that they would mobilize 10,000 people to start a war, and often more than 50,000 or even more than 100,000 people would actually participate in the war. The Nesherots were very proud of this and did not think it was a deception. After all, the emperor assigned 10,000 soldiers, and the other tens of thousands were "enthusiastic people."

Terrible fighting spirit, this is a terrible chariot!

In a trance, the car speed gradually slowed down. He came to his senses. The driver took the initiative to help him open the car door. He sorted out his clothes and entered a manor under the guidance of a servant.

A small social banquet is held here today. Most of the nobles who moved to Nesherro from other places in the past year, including the nobles of the Tenomian Empire. Of course, Charles did not know them, but they just heard about it.

The organizer of this banquet was not a native of Nesherro, but he joined Nesherro longer than others and had a higher status here.

This is a very special country, and Charles has to sigh at this again.

In Aepeda, merchants and even the ruling class were actually just puppets that carried out his power on behalf of the rulers, and merchants were often harvested - not that the privileged class did not reap ordinary people, but that ordinary people had nothing worth harvesting.

However, in Nesherro, the status of merchants was not low. The imperial emperor even appointed royal merchants, who managed the entire commercial organization in Nesherro while doing business, and gave merchants recognition from the ruling class. In the words of Emperor Nesherro, merchants, like farmers, had worked hard and achieved success. They could not reject them just because they had no mud on their feet and did not reject them.

"The Unclean feet" is a short story with a long history. It tells the story of a jester trying to deceive the emperor with sweet words, but the emperor saw through it. The emperor asked everyone to experience the suffering of the peasants with everyone. Finally, the emperor checked the feet of these people. Everyone, including the queen, were covered with mud, but the only pair of feet were clean and not even dust fell on them.

Finally, the emperor ordered the swordsman to cut off the feet and expel them from the palace. If he didn't care about the emperor's incompetent description before the story began, then this would inevitably be a inherited story that has been passed down through the ages and is full of fun and wisdom.

Its core is not who did something wrong, but tells people that the emperor's tyranny is caused by jesters, and the emperor's stupidity is only for a while. As long as the villain jester is expelled, the emperor will become wise, and people will inevitably usher in a future full of hope...

Well, the rulers never considered shameless when they fabricated such stories. They just needed the story to meet their rule.

This story has been passed down to this day and has once become evidence to criticize businessmen.

Compared to farmers with mud, soldiers with scars, civilians with dust, and officials who deliberately do not wear shoes to dirty their feet in order to show their integrity and wiseness, only businessmen's feet will be hidden in their boots and kept clean. Isn't this very consistent with the wisdom story that has been passed down through the ages?

So they regard merchants as scumbags of the same level as villains and jesters.

Fortunately, the emperor of Nesherro was not a fool. He knew very well what the merchants had brought to this society, and gave them fair judgments and improved their social status.

But then again, in the process of society's development from barbarism to civilization, since some things cannot be avoided, the two harms are more serious. Being hit in the eyes is better than being stabbed.

When Charles entered the yard, someone greeted him. These people knew very well that what they needed most to come to this powerful empire was to keep warm. Compared with other professions, such as farmers, soldiers, etc., merchants are actually more likely to offend people.

No matter it is a farmer, soldier, worker or other professional, he will not be rejected or hostile by his peers, nor will he be regarded as an enemy by them. Instead, he will be more proud and happy because of the people in this industry.

Only businessmen are different. Every businessman does not want others to interfere in the business he is doing. Monopoly is always the most profitable business. If someone else is also engaged in his own category, then profits will not only decrease, but also increase competitiveness.

Therefore, it is indeed difficult for a group of new businessmen to integrate into this society without offending others easily. As long as you do business, it will affect other people's business, become competitors, and become enemies.

Shire's business has no conflict with everyone. The bosses of the largest aid stations in the city were originally a little wary of him, but when they heard that Shire's girls did not accept assistance from society, they immediately became much more enthusiastic, and naturally they could not help calling him stupid behind their backs.

He didn't take these words seriously at all, and actively participated in various social activities. In just one week, he had met many middle- and high-level figures in the city. In addition, his humor and generous actions, he was very popular with some people.

In fact, the most important thing is that he is doing a unique business. If a business is not favored by anyone, he will naturally not become an enemy of any businessman.

"Shar...", the organizer waved to Shire, "Come here, I will introduce a friend to you."

Many envious and jealous eyes around him were focused on him. He became a person close to the core circle of various banquets just a few days ago. It did make some people who have come for a while and have not yet integrated into the local society.

Shire greeted everyone he knew or did not know, and would not neglect anyone he met just because of the organizer's shouting. Even if these people were a little envious, jealous and hated, they gradually could not continue to be jealous or hated.

Some people are like this, they always walk in the spotlight, there is nothing they can do about it!

The organizer of the banquet is called "Harden", a foreign merchant who does livestock transactions and slave transactions. There is no big difference between them, for those who can stand here.

"This is Mr. Deant. He has a stadium in Lincheng. We just talked about your girls..." Harden explained why he called Shire over.

Nesherro has all the fantasies about the prosperous empire in Charles' ideals, and the grand arena is just one of them.

There is a hot spot before each gladiator competition begins. In the past, gladiators basically fought with some wild beasts. They basically fought one-sidedly, killing wild beasts happily and violently to awaken the audience's desire for blood and rejuvenate their enthusiasm.

But it's like this every time. To be honest, not only the audience was a little bored, but the owner of the arena was also a little bored, so he came to find Harden to see if there was any good way to solve this problem. Then Harden thought of the videos that Shire showed him.

There are three kinds of things in this world that exude fatal temptations.

Life, violence, and power!
