Chapter five hundred and forty-six words without accepting (Happy Dragon Boat Festival)
But if we open the door to the Warlock Alliance without any scruples.
According to the rate at which the leaders of the Eternal Night Army emerge, it won't be long before the entire Warlock Alliance is diluted, turning this place into Sean's own hall.
Sean will not only be the grand maester of the council, but also their lord.
When should the outright temper of the Grand Maester of the Gard Council break out, but at this time?
"I appreciate the kindness of the Grand Master. It is my greatest honor to join the Warlock Alliance. However, my energy is limited and it is difficult to serve as the Grand Master of the Council at the same time." It was Sean who took the initiative to help them. "The Warlock Union is, after all, a
The nature of the academic organization will completely change if I also become the Grand Bachelor of the Council, which is not conducive to the Warlock Alliance making a fair choice."
Of course, Sean would not be so kind to help the Warlock Alliance, but he had no need to join it.
The Warlock Alliance is only a relatively loose organization, and its binding force on subordinate scholars is not particularly strong. It often relies on the spontaneous support of scholars.
Not to mention just becoming a Grand Bachelor of the Parliament, even if you really become the President of the Warlock Alliance, it is not obvious that it will bring much benefit to the leaders of the Eternal Night Army.
On the contrary, there will be many irrelevant responsibilities.
Moreover, the Warlock Alliance has a relatively transcendent status in the Byron Alliance and relies heavily on its unique style of conduct.
If it is tied too tightly to the leader of the Eternal Night Army, it will arouse the resentment of many scholars and noble lords, which will not be conducive to the development of members of the Warlock Alliance in other territories, let alone the acquisition of knowledge.
Knowledge is the most valuable asset of the Warlock Alliance. As long as this is obtained, what does it matter whether the Warlock Alliance joins or not?
He can even build one as soon as he changes hands.
That is to say, these parliamentary academics regard the Warlock Alliance as a treasure, but they don't know that Sean doesn't like it at all.
"Lord, you see it much more clearly than we do. We are able to maintain good relations with so many forces because of our relatively neutral way of doing things. For the sake of scholars who are loyal to other territories, the exclusive label on us should not be
It’s too heavy. As an academic organization, we just carry out our academic research honestly. There is no need to get involved too much in other aspects. Joint education can be done, and a branch of Brother Port can be established, but let the lord become a parliamentary university.
Don’t mention the matter of the scholar again.”
Sean's initiative to retreat greatly changed the attitude of the Grand Master of Gusta Council towards him. For a while, the previous opponents and the opponents stood on a united front.
"I think you are all too conservative. When we start jointly running schools, 90% of the bachelors and grand bachelors in the world are from us. Even if they have opinions, so what? Can we still use them?
"The Grand Maester of the Ghar Council was obviously immersed in his own fantasy.
"This view of the Grand Master is too extreme, too dangerous, and inconsistent with the past style of our alliance, and should not be changed at will..." the Grand Master of the Gusta Council retorted.
"I also think our focus is still on jointly running schools, and other matters will be discussed in the long term..." Sean also declined repeatedly.
The entire negotiation bureau was in complete chaos.
Now there is no distinction between friend and foe. The Grand Master of the Gard Council strongly recommends Sean to join the Warlock Alliance and become a member of the Council of Grand Masters. Anyway, the number of Grand Masters of the Warlock Alliance Council is not fixed. It is now a seven-member council, and it will become eight by then.
It would be nice to have a people's parliament.
That kind of randomness made Sean even less interested in joining it. Who knows when this eight-person parliament will become a nine-person, ten-person, eleven-person or even twelve-person parliament?
As long as they have the right people, they can expand without limit.
This casual style is really inconsistent with his nature.
It is better to follow the original plan, to learn knowledge from them and enrich ourselves. When necessary, just support a few parliamentary bachelors. There is no need to get involved myself. This is to lower one's own style.
Sean refused to accept it, and the grand maester of the Gal Council could not press someone's head to drink water. The matter ended up being nothing, and it ended up focusing on the joint establishment of a school and the opening of a Warlock Alliance branch in Brother Port.
However, after the interference of the Grand Master of the Gard Council, the two Grand Masters of the Council, Gusta and Quint, who had originally had a tougher attitude, obviously began to retreat and compromise, because they found that if they continued to persist, they would only make the situation worse.
Oops.
This unprecedented scholar conference in Brother Port has convinced several parliamentary bachelors of the Warlock Alliance, and they somewhat unprincipledly support the decision-making of Sean and the Yongye Army Leader.
In other words, if they want to fight against the leader of the Yongye Army, they must fight with their own people first.
If this is really the case, then it becomes an out-and-out joke!
Instead of doing this, it is better to take a step back, keep a close eye on this matter, and catch the loopholes in the cooperation between the two parties!
With this mentality, they no longer intervened, but watched with cold eyes, and things naturally progressed quickly.
After all, Sean has no intention of plotting the Warlock Alliance at all, but for the knowledge in their stomachs.
The Warlock Alliance's attitude towards knowledge is not secretive. On the contrary, they have always been committed to spreading and promoting vast knowledge. Otherwise, how could they still have such a lofty status in the minds of scholars despite being in a corner!
Putting aside any prejudices, the two sides should hit it off in this regard.
In order to show his sincerity, Sean actually used some of the unique knowledge of the Eternal Night Army Leader.
This knowledge is biased towards people's livelihood agriculture and light industry, such as new farming technology, breeding technology, grafting technology, etc. The light industry is some more labor-intensive textile technology, manufacturing technology, etc.
These technologies naturally went through careful political consideration before being brought out. Rather than giving them to the Warlock Alliance, it would be more appropriate to give them to the entire Byron Alliance and the entire Ashan Continent.
The war that Yong Ye Military Leader is best at is not conventional war, but economic war, plundering wealth through trade means.
But the problem is that the foundation for creating wealth in this world is too weak, the level of farming cannot be improved, the output of the land is limited, and the overall wealth is naturally limited. When the plunder is over, they will have nothing to plunder.
In fact, the current main trading partners of the Eternal Night Army are still those lords and nobles, plundering the limited income they have accumulated over the years and squeezing the people of the territory. The wealth directly plundered from the hands of those citizens is pitifully small, because they do not have much in their hands.
Wealth is for them to plunder.
Now Sean is a little dissatisfied with this. Since you have no technology and are not willing to innovate technology, the Yongye Army Leader will help you innovate. When the time comes, you will create more wealth, which will be convenient for you to plunder.
If the leader of the Yongye Army takes the initiative to promote these technologies, the efficiency will be very low, not only a waste of manpower and material resources, but also people may even suspect ulterior motives.
Once you get it into the Warlock Academy jointly established with the Warlock Alliance, it will be different. It will become a golden sign. Those nobles and nobles will squeeze their scalps into it and send their own people to learn at all costs, even if it costs a lot of money.
No more hesitation.
Sean has never said that people from other territories don't have to spend money to study in the joint colleges they run.
The joint college has not yet been opened, but it has already become a unique political tool in Sean's hands. As it develops and grows, its role will inevitably become larger and larger, and it can even affect some of the other party's decisions.
The reason is very simple. When the time comes, the Yongye Army leaders will directly affect whether the students in their territory and the enemy's territory are eligible to study in joint universities. If there is a unilateral ban, their enemies will learn more advanced knowledge from here.
Don't you want to create a crushing force on yourself?
At that time, in order not to be distanced, we can only bow to the leader of the Yongye Army and even make concessions in interests.
This can be expected. As the knowledge taught by joint universities becomes more powerful, this influence will become greater.
It depends on how Sean can flexibly control it, because in addition to these light industries.
They also master shipbuilding, steel frying, steelmaking, steam boilers, runes and artillery manufacturing, a series of heavy industries and core technologies.
Don't even think about it now. The Yongye Army Leader will definitely not share it with the Warlock Alliance, nor will it be taught by the United Universities. It is better to cultivate professional talents in this field in their own college cities.
But if we don't use it now, it doesn't mean we won't use it in the future. As long as there are enough benefits, these technologies may not be able to become a weapon of war.
These core technologies are also another reason why Sean resolutely refuses to become the Grand Bachelor of the Warlock Alliance Council. What if he joins and becomes one of them, and the Warlock Alliance takes the opportunity to ask him for the unique skills of the Eternal Night Army Leader?
Sean had to be careful about this.
If the two are separated, Sean can protect this knowledge on the grounds that the Yongye Army's military secrets are secrets.
This was a key point of contention between him and the Warlock Alliance.
According to the wishes of the Warlock Alliance, I hope that the Eternal Night Army leaders will use all the technologies they have mastered to implement a non-secret policy for the Warlock Alliance and even the whole world, so as to benefit all mankind.
This is not because they are instigated by anyone, but this is their purpose.
Everything has two sides.
It is precisely because of this purpose that it is easier for the Yongye Army leaders to exploit their previously stored knowledge.
But it is precisely this purpose that will make them try every means to squeeze more knowledge from the leaders of the Eternal Night Army to benefit the world.
From their perspective, their goals are just and great, because they do not care about the gains and losses of one territory or territory, but rather contribute to the entire alliance and the entire human race.
Sean agrees with their lofty ideals, but that does not mean he supports them. After all, this will seriously damage the interests of the Yongye Army.
How can the knowledge they have worked so hard to research be made public to the world before they can be used to benefit themselves?
From this, we can see how incompatible the Warlock Alliance is with Sean. There is no chance that he will become the Grand Bachelor of the Parliament or their chief speaker in this life.
Even if it becomes, the Warlock Alliance will no longer be the original Warlock Alliance, it will no longer belong to the whole world, but will belong to the Eternal Night Army.
The two sides started to argue over this point.
The Warlock Alliance puts a big hat on Sean for the benefit of all mankind.
Sean started from the private property and development of the military leaders. The successful establishment of their joint college was based on the strong foundation of the Yongye military leader.
If the leader of the Yongye Army publishes all the technologies to the public, other military leaders will be able to obtain various technologies without paying any price. It seems to be something that benefits all mankind, but in fact it is an artificial hindrance. There is no benefit if the technology is researched.
If so, who would delve into new technologies?
When the time comes, just wait and eat the ready-made ones.
Not only will this not promote innovative technology, but it will be a blow.
Literary knowledge and technical knowledge should be separated, and they are obliged to protect the rights and interests of those technical knowledge.
Only their rights and interests are protected and they can benefit from it.
Only now do they have the motivation and financial resources to delve into more new technologies to achieve the goal of benefiting all mankind.
In order to convince them, Sean even threw out the concept of intellectual property rights.
If we didn’t do it before, it was because we didn’t have the foundation and there was no need.
Now that Yongye Junling has become a major intellectual property owner, in order to protect their own interests, they must not only engage in it, but also do it in a formal way to prepare for them to come up with more innovative technologies in the future.
When dealing with literate people, we must deal with it in a cultural way.
After a week-long discussion, the concept of intellectual property was finally recognized by the Warlock Alliance. They are all smart people and understand that Sean is not a random person, but a fact.
The Warlock Alliance has been suffering from this problem for many years. It has always been in a state of eating from the big pot. After all the knowledge is researched, it immediately becomes everyone's. In addition to gaining a bunch of false names, the researchers will not bring them any practical benefits.
In terms of interests, no one will work hard to delve into new technologies, especially those with technical knowledge. In addition to conventional knowledge, this also requires a lot of financial and material resources as the basis for experiments.
If there is no profit motive, who would do such a thankless thing?
Eventually falling into a vicious cycle.
It was okay if I didn't realize the problem before. Now that I realize it, I naturally have to make changes.
However, intellectual property is a very general concept. If we really want to refine it, there is still a long way to go. It is impossible to get it right in one step. This will require a long discussion.
Sean threw this concept out and basically ignored it after achieving his goal.
When the rules are formulated, there will naturally be professionals from the Eternal Night Army. Even if they do not play a leading role, they will try their best to make the rules more beneficial to the Eternal Night Army, and then pass the old rules of the Warlock Alliance.
Influence spreads throughout the world.
After reaching a consensus on this aspect, the atmosphere between the two parties eased a lot, and another topic was centered around the Scholars Conference.
There are too many accidental factors in the convening of this scholar conference.
Whether it is the Eternal Night Army Leader or the Warlock Alliance, there are actually no practical issues.
But people have gathered. If we don't do something, it will not only be a waste, but also become a joke, let alone the next scholar conference.
Only by trying to make most scholars feel that they have gained something this time will they look forward to and participate in the next scholar conference.
It's just that there are too many people, more than an army. It's unrealistic to gather them all to participate in the same issue.
After a period of consultation and discussion, we simply turned these scholar conferences into an exchange conference.
On the square, more than a dozen speech platforms have been set up, allowing interested scholars to go to these platforms to express their opinions, gather and attract fellow enthusiasts, and form a seminar for fellow enthusiasts. If they can come up with a more mature set of things
, if it is compiled into a book, the Yong Ye Army Leader will also print it for free for them, and the quantity will be determined based on the recognition and value obtained.
This is for those who have a little something in their belly, but nothing quite full.
One of them alone is not enough to write a book and biography, so find a bunch of similar people together, you piece it together, I piece it together, and a book will come out, right?
