When Evas and his group arrived, it was already late at night.
"This name...is so strange."
Isabel murmured, "It sounds like it's a wine name."
After all, this is Isabel's first time going abroad after getting married. And this first time going abroad was to the country of love and America. Although Lesserjen is not the capital of art in the Iris Kingdom, there are all kinds of novel and gorgeous
The buildings also made her eyes widen.
Aivas smiled and reached out to touch Isabel's hair, holding the girl who seemed to have stars in her eyes in her arms.
“——Ah, because it is indeed the name of the wine.”
The answer to Isabel is Yasen.
Speaking of this, he smacked his lips: "To be honest, this wine is average. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to advertise."
Yasen didn't think this was something to be proud of, but instead felt a little embarrassed.
"Because the relationship between the iris and the Khan Kingdom is not good...or the relationship with the elves is not very good, the Khan Kingdom has not put the elves bishops in the Iris."
Aivas replied softly: "Of course... I think one of the important reasons is that the iris is one of the few human countries that accept dwarves. And the elves have always been rude to dwarves."
Speaking of this, Aivas couldn't help but smile.
He remembered a slogan - part of the culture of iris, which was somewhat similar to France in his previous life. There is a well-known joke in France: only women, short men and foreigners can save France.
The existence of dwarves also allows iris, which worships the way of beauty, to develop technology normally. iris' worship of art is just like the worship of science and engineering in the previous life... It is the kind of "no matter what your talent is, if
If you have good academic performance or are smart enough, you should learn the art level.
In this case, technology stagnates and industry lags behind is normal.
If there were no dwarves, their technology would be much behind their neighboring countries. It was precisely because of the optimized armament of the dwarves that the fully armed Star Antimony did not dare to invade the iris at will; with these weapons, they would be on all sides.
Avalon, who was supposed to have the first navy, broke when he touched the naval battle.
In this regard, the dwarves have indeed tried their best. Without them, the iris might have been swallowed up by Xingying fifty years ago.
"But even if there is no sponsorship from the church, the church is a must. Even if there are a large number of witches providing potions, the top leaders of the Iris do not need the healing of the pastors... But if there is no protection from the church, the dead will
It's really a bit too many.
"Although only the first-level priest can preside over the funeral, it is a country's population, after all, Iris has a much larger population than Avalon. Even if it is just to purify the dead and let the dead rest in peace, it is necessary to
A certain proportion of extraordinary people who offer the path of Tao.”
Just as the alchemy of the balanced path requires money, the path of dedication actually requires money - as an individual, the extraordinary person who dedicates the path of dedication may not need to spend much, but it costs a lot at the church level.
Uniforms, icons, churches, ritual materials for consecration and rituals, wages for ordinary priests, plus expenses for maintaining nursing homes, orphanages or church schools... This is a lot of money, and it is a must
Continuously spent.
When there are witches who grab the healing of the nobles and nobles in the business of the Moon, and the son of the Moon is generally reluctant to receive priest treatment, it is difficult for priests with lower ranks than other countries to make enough money.
——In this case, the pastors can only rely on "sponsorship".
"The Ram Champagne Chapel is sponsored by the 'Ram Champagne'. The church is built by them, and they also pay to maintain the church schools, welfare homes and schnitz halls."
Yasen sneered: "Willing to invest in the construction of the sacred temple is a good maintenance for the reputation of the enterprise... But the problem is here. There are not many great people in the asset family, and most of them need to invest in the construction of the sacred temple.
Often it is because I am too immoral and want to balance my reputation.
"For example, Ram Champagne - they had a storm about thirty years ago. Another century-old champagne brand, San Relo, publicly accused them of stealing and copying their own recipes. And they drank it
Both of these champagne companies can know the similarity and difference between these two champagne companies - Ram Champagne has shrunk by one-third in quality, and the various materials used are obviously worse... Now their quality is getting more and more
Badly, synthetic flavors were added to enhance the fragrance, I even suspected that their alcohol might be synthesized. Of course, their price was as low as one-third of the classic 'San Relo Champagne', which has been around for thirty years.
The price has not increased.
"It is because they are criticized by the whole country that they invested in the construction of churches and welfare homes to try to distract themselves. This trick is very good, after all, some people need cheap wine. They are not short of supporters, and this kind of
Sacred sponsorship has another selling point of whitewashing. Now thirty years have passed, the 'Saint-Relo Champagne' has gone bankrupt, and young people no longer know about this storm."
“…It sounds quite interesting.”
Sherlock, who was sitting aside reading a book, heard the topic and raised his head.
He glanced at Evas and said briefly: "This is actually equivalent to letting the church endorse itself - as a price, he let some of the black-hearted money he earned back to the society in disguise."
"Well," Aivas nodded, "After all, the reputation of low-level devotees is invincible among the people. Most people don't know how crazy it is to reach the high level of dedication, because ordinary people can't reach the fourth level at all.
Level or above.
"Especially with so many poor people in Iris... the Shientang, which can stabilize the daily porridge, can offset all the infamy. So many people live on them, and if the company goes bankrupt, how many people will starve to death. And
Aren’t these people starving to death all the voting rooms for them to vote?
"So no matter how bad their reputation is, how strong the brand and quality of San Relo Champagne are, or how solid the evidence is, the Iris Parliament cannot-do not dare to attack Ram Champagne.
"I know you hate this kind of evil businessman, Yasen. But in fact, you don't have to pay too much attention to this aspect... Although the original intention is bad, at least the result is good, right?"
"...But, Aivas, do you think this is right?"
Isabel frowned slightly, and she felt a little confused.
As an Avalonian, she felt that the public relations method of doing illegal acts first and then using money to buy fame to protect herself is simply outrageous - if it were in Avalon, it would have been taken down by the Arbitration Office on the spot.
.
But she couldn't say anything. Because these people did save tens of thousands... or even hundreds of thousands of people in this way.
Use illegal black money to give kindness to the poor who benefit from it-
Stealing and plagiarizing the formula is obviously wrong, and it is even more of a crime to make a century-old brand with excellent quality go bankrupt. But a considerable portion of the money they earn is used to maintain social welfare undertakings...
On the way to the residence of Vandom a few days ago, Isabel saw the Ram Champagne Welfare House and the Ram Champagne Shien Hall. She didn't see the welfare house, but there were hundreds of people who were receiving the porridge at the entrance of the Shien Hall.
What about the long line.
It was a salty porridge with onions, a small amount of fish, and a lot of rice. It was not nutritious, but at least it could survive by drinking porridge. She also saw a child wearing rags with her own eyes.
One person had a portion of porridge, and after drinking it, he returned to the end of the line and lined up again - intuitively, this was obviously unruly, but others did not respond to it, obviously this was a normal situation.
It is precisely because they have sufficient funds that they don’t care about such trivial matters.
Their sufficient funding is because the quality of Ram Champagne is getting worse and worse and the cost is getting lower and lower. While the profits are increasing, there is also the need to whitewash... But this is another obvious mistake.
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one reading!
San Relo Champagne was run for similar tastes and went bankrupt - if they were willing to take out some of the money to sponsor the church, they would probably be able to smooth out the gap in this regard. But they obviously did nothing wrong and didn't need it at all.
Doing so...and they are of excellent quality, so there is no profit to compete with Ram Champagne.
People who have done the wrong thing are supported by people; while people who have nothing to do have nothing.
This made Isabel's brain bug and entered a vicious cycle.
"There are not so many 'right' and 'wrong' in this world, Isabel. Although you don't have the authoritarian heart, you are still fascinated..."
Aivas said calmly: "Because what you want to say is the problem of the Iris government. They have left so many people with no place to live, no food and clothing, and wandering on the streets. These black-hearted businessmen can wash away the whitewash in this way.
, because they bear part of the matter that should have been the responsibility of the Iris government.
"This is like the street gangsters in Avalon. Isn't it because the Supervisory Bureau cannot maintain order in Lloyd's district that a new order belongs to the locals? Since the local people have chosen them, it means at least it means that at least
They are irreplaceable.
"If you really want these evil companies to disappear, you can only let the Iris Council take responsibility - find a way to solve the slums everywhere. Receive taxes and fines to the companies and use money to support public welfare undertakings.
, sponsor the church. After all, letting no undead in the city benefit everyone... This should be paid by the state.
"Since you don't want to pay money, don't want to care about things, and don't want to save people - then someone comes to do it, so don't blame him for getting the support he shouldn't have gotten. Originally, this support should be given to the Iris Parliament, not
Is it?"
“…Is this also a kind of dedication?”
When Yasen heard Aivas's words, he realized something: "Use others' interests to help others...so the church is silent?"
"Well. Justice does not belong to dedication, justice belongs to authority. Although this is a kind of hypocrisy, hypocrisy is also stronger than pure evil."
Aivas nodded slightly: "But after all, it's because the land itself is sick. The son of the moon, the Hawkeye... they are not the choice of the people. Nobles, parliament, merchants, witches, artists...
I have never cared about these lower-level people. When everyone is cannibalizing people, there is nothing right or wrong. Because from the beginning, I can no longer choose the 'correct'.
"People do evil for granted, kill for granted, and die for granted. If they want to cure the disease, they must remove the lesions. But this lesions are on them... and they must also kill people."
Aivas looked at the Ram Champagne Chapel, where there was no one, only the candle burning.
According to the information, Blood Tiansi is under this sinful land.
When he arrived here, Xue Tiansi must have sensed his existence.
But Xue Tiansi did not react...
Maybe I am ambushing Avas, or maybe I want to talk to Avas.
Avas decided to believe in the Blood Tiansi for a moment - with Don Quixote's protection, he had the confidence to choose trust.
His eyes were deep: "That's why I said Yulia chose an extremely difficult road.
"She wants to give these people a way out...it is basically equivalent to trying to fight against the entire era with one person, against the evil virtues, greed and nothingness in the hearts of millions of people. She wants to use murder to save people, and to endure being saved.
Human hostility...it is much more difficult than killing people by saving people and enduring people's praise.
"If she can succeed, it will be a great achievement that has been passed down for thousands of years - to achieve the Tiansi and the alternate pillar god."
This is probably why Yulia was chosen by the sand timepiece.
