Chapter 2022 Young people, dialogue and cooperation mechanism
But unlike Cook, whose thoughts and concepts have long been finalized and difficult to change, these eighteen apprentices are still very young and have almost completely experienced the development process of the Daxia Territory and the subsequent new life movement in the territory.
They may have a slight yearning for elves, but they are not unfamiliar. Breaking the people's inherent impression of elves has always been something Xia Duo has been working hard to do, and the results are pretty good.
But they are elves after all. As soon as these more than ten young people arrived in the floating city, they started chattering and discussing. In the end, the master, who had older but more calm ideas, straightened his face, and they stopped for a while.
It wasn't until they met Jie Yin, who left Cook in awe, that this group of young people became active again. Many of these more than ten apprentices had played with Jie Yin since childhood.
When Jie Yin was working as a magic affairs officer in the territory to research the civilian use of magic, he also asked them for help or suggestions for improvement.
In fact, there are not many barriers and class distinctions between young people. Cook's more than ten apprentices just missed the reform of the Tower of Time and several subsequent expansions because they were a few years older than Jieyin.
But it is conceivable that with the emergence of the floating city, the popularization of magic education will be more widespread, and the magic chef is not unimaginable.
Even now, many mage apprentices and even formal mage have shown the tendency to change professions.
Having had more contact with spellcasters, several of these dozen chef apprentices have resumed the mage training they had when they were apprentices at the Tower of Time.
Coupled with Cook's careful cultivation of cooking skills, if nothing else happens, they will have a share in the name of the future magic chef.
"It's great to see you, Jie Yin. The last time I went to your house, your mother said that you were accepted as a student by the lord, and the news spread among the neighbors. Is this true?"
"It's true. I didn't expect that the teacher's first student would be me, hehe!"
Speaking of this, Jie Yin's grin never closed, and the more than ten chef apprentices kept asking questions. In the end, Cook couldn't stand it anymore and took pictures of several apprentices.
head, reminded:
"The lord will prepare dinner when he asks us to come over. Don't keep your lord waiting too long."
He didn't dare to beat Jie Yin, but it didn't matter how his apprentices beat him. This was a remnant of the old concept, and it was actually not allowed in the territory. The apprentices only had to go to the police station to report, and every report would be accurate.
Of course, the premise is that the beating is real. If it is just a mild disciplinary corporal punishment, if the apprentice goes to the security station to file a complaint, he may even get a beating from the security officer.
In fact, among the dozen or so apprentices, some of them had family members who were security guards. If there was a real trouble, the intensity of the fight between the family members and the master would be completely different.
The apprentices were reminded by their master and knew the seriousness of the matter, but they still turned away from their master and winked at Jie Yin.
Soon, Jie Yin set up a stove for Cook and others in a rough building near Hengchun Square. With the help of people from Seven Towers, the speed was very fast.
As for the ingredients and seasonings, except for a few living leap beasts imprisoned by magic, most of the rest were brought over from the territory by Cook and others.
…
Just as Cook was instructing his apprentices to prepare dinner, Shado and Badigal finally found the opportunity to meet in private. This was also the first time the two met in private since they last cooperated to capture Prince Ser.
"Lord Shado, your floating fortress - it's really breathtaking!"
As soon as they met, Badigal went straight to the topic. Xia Duo had expected this and came up with the "official reply" he had prepared: "It's just a little trick. If Mr. Badigal wants to know more, you might as well ask."
Ask my teacher Yin Orem.”
Sha Duo didn't know which aspect of the floating city Badigal was talking about, but it was right to blame Yin Olem. He himself was worried that he would not be able to grasp the balance when negotiating terms with Badigal, but Yin Olem
Won't.
"As expected of Master Yin Olum! I will definitely have a good chat with him when I go back this time." Badigal said in a relaxed tone.
Although there is a gap in seniority and generation, his personal relationship with Yin Orum is still very good. If it is confirmed that he is related to Yin Orum, then there is really no need to embarrass the other student's students.
"By the way, Lord Shado, you asked Brundes to convey your opinions on the southern area of Sruvende before. Did you want that area to be independent?"
"Yes."
Having learned about the negotiation process among the countries just now, Xia Duo was more certain about the feasibility of his idea, "It is obviously impossible for the countries to let Ye Erlan swallow up that area at the moment, but directly return it to Sluvend, Ye Erlan
It’s hard to accept, so why not adopt a compromise approach——
"Didn't Erlan say that some cities voluntarily gave up their status as Sluvende and switched to them? Then let that part of the area become independent, and the area that he captured later would be returned to Sluvende.
“This should be a solution that can be reluctantly accepted by all parties.
"For Sruvend, Ye Erlan did not take advantage, and the captured areas were recovered. As for those who took the initiative to leave, they were not of the same mind, and it would not make much sense to force them back, especially in the future Sruvend will
Under the supervision or even custody of various countries.
"For Erlan, this situation can be regarded as retaining the last trace of dignity. The countries in that part of the independent region do not interfere and are basically still under their actual control, just in different names.
"For all countries, it is impossible for Erlan to really gain nothing. For now, Erlan is still a big country and still needs respect. This level is considered the limit."
After Shado finished speaking, Badigal thought for a moment, but then said another thing: "So, Lord Shado does not agree with the Northland Alliance's review of the demon issue within Ye Erlan?"
"Yes, I don't agree. If you want to build a stable order in the North, you can't get around Ye Erlan. Ye Erlan needs the Northern Alliance, but the Northern Alliance needs Ye Erlan even more. If the pressure is too much, it may not be a good thing."
If Ye'erlan was just an ordinary small country, then the decision of the Northern Alliance would be a godsend, and it would have no room for resistance. However, the actual situation is that Ye'erland is one of the five major countries in the Northern Alliance.
The other countries can occasionally target it. This is considered a way of playing within the rules of the game, but it is impossible to forcefully intervene in its internal affairs. Otherwise, Erlan will not play with you. Will the Northern Alliance still have a "Defense War"?
Xia Duo directly pointed out the nature of the Northland Alliance, and then continued:
"But this does not mean that the Northland Alliance cannot have any intervention in the issue of demon descendants in Ye Erlan. Demon descendants - how should I put it, at least for now, are the biggest unstable factors in the North besides drow. It is indeed necessary.
To impose restrictions, Erlan, as a major country, has more responsibility and obligation to demonstrate its determination to maintain stability in the North."
Badigal's eyes suddenly lit up, "What does Lord Shado mean - to establish a new dialogue and cooperation mechanism to allow all countries to actively communicate on the review process of demon descendants?"
If these mechanisms really exist and countries increase exchanges and mutual trust, the North may really be able to move towards long-term stability.
Xiaoshuting app
"right."
Xia Duo nodded extremely seriously, "This new dialogue and cooperation mechanism is not only used for demon review, but can also be used for exchanges in other fields, such as jointly combating transnational crime, cultural and artistic exchanges, trade negotiations, etc."
