Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 684 [Chapter of the Game of Death] 130 Three: Compromise

In private, those who are willing to lick the stinky feet of the Stafford family call Freeman the "Prince", probably because the Stafford family has made it clear that Freeman will be the next successor - the eldest grandson, Three generations of single-handed, the only pure Stafford blood that is not polluted... The halo on Freeman's head represents his irreplaceable status.

But the word "pure blood" itself is an insult. Freeman knew that when people praised his blood for being pure, it also meant that they knew where such "pure" and "unadulterated" blood came from. .

As a young man who has received modern education, Freeman has always had a strong rejection of his own origin.

Especially after reading those articles in the forum, Freeman realized a fact in despair: his existence itself is a kind of evil.

Now that he is facing the pressure of the big figures in the House of Representatives, he said that he wants to share the benefits, to a certain extent, it is also out of some kind of repentance for his own existence.

However, one’s origin is not one’s own choice, and it is impossible for everyone’s parents to ask their offspring for their opinions when deciding to create offspring. Such unilateral creation of life has long been praised by choral groups as the divine right endowed by the Holy Light.

Everyone present clearly knew what Freeman meant. "Distributing benefits to others" is really ridiculous to the Conservative Party full of people. If the Conservative Party is willing to distribute benefits to others, why should they adopt a conservative approach? What about policies to consolidate their own interests?
Freeman's proposal has gone far beyond the bottom line of others, and it is almost the same as the ideas of the lunatics of the Liberal Democratic Party. After the Labor Party left the House of Commons, no one has ever proposed a bill that seems "so ridiculous" to most people.

Facing a rookie in the workplace like Freeman, when he said this, others had already thought of a way to deal with it.

As the leader of the party, Charles was the first to speak:
"I respect MP Freeman's advice."

No one objected, even though such a conventional thing as the party leader has existed in name only.

Charles continued:
"According to the situation of the majority of people in this demonstration, we need to curtail the control of enterprises in the industrial zone of Yanan City, so that workers can receive wages and other treatment that match their labor."

Freeman realized the trap in the words of the party leader, and immediately said:

"It's not just the factory workers, Mr. Charles, you may not know that there is a whole set of social operating system around the birth of workers in the industrial area and the lower city——

From the purchase of raw materials to the processing of daily necessities for workers;

From the primary industry to the tertiary industry;
From the lowest worker to the chef who cooks the food for the worker and the accountant who files the tax for the worker...

The entire lower city and the industrial area are a whole, so the composition of the people in this parade is very complicated, they are not just workers..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by another senator.

"Mr. Freeman, I just want to ask you, what about the tax when the money is given to those mobs?"

Freeman looked at the tall man sitting directly opposite him. This man was named Michael Heinrich, a half-breed Luke and an unknown ethnicity. He was kneeling and licking a certain lady in the House of Lords.

"The lower urban area and the industrial zone contribute more than half of the tax revenue of Yanan City, no matter what the source of tax revenue is, the current situation is quite good.

Under the current tax rules, we have sufficient budget to popularize the Internet, build high-tech zones, and even tighten our belts to use part of the tax revenue to build airports. "

When talking about the airport, Michael Heinrich intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Winston Churchill who was silent, and the latter frowned a little.

"If you take such a risk to make such a big change, who will be responsible if there are bad consequences? No one can be responsible, because the bad consequences have already happened, and everyone has to pay for it."

Freeman was speechless, because he suddenly realized that he could not bear such a responsibility—not only because of his responsibilities as a senator, but also because this practice would affect the interests of the Stafford family— —

As a new aristocrat relying on the industrial age to take off for the second time, the blood extracted by the Stafford family itself comes from all walks of life in the lower city, which means that giving profits to workers is already the limit of what Freeman can promise.

The enthusiasm gradually cooled down, and reason and identity once again challenged logic. After being opposed one after another, Freeman realized his recklessness and impracticality.

He clearly knows that in the process of the strike simulator, starting from the industrial age, it will take at least 100 years, during which countless sacrifices have been made, and the entire human society has paid an unimaginable huge price to barely reach the goal of "the workers can The goal of exchanging labor for corresponding remuneration".

Nowadays, it is too unrealistic to want to make society into such an ideal state based on his personal efforts.

He took a hit, but didn't let it go.

"Mr. Charles, at least we can guarantee the interests of workers."

Charles, leader of the Conservative Party, said:
"As for Member Freeman's motion, please show your hands and vote."

He said in a resounding voice just like how hundreds of people gathered in this square parliament hall ten years ago:
"If you agree, please raise your hand."

Charles was the first to raise his hand. He just wanted to quell the riots, and he would not harm his interests because of the riots, so he immediately made the choice he thought was most beneficial to the situation.

The one who raised his hand next to him was Guer Besarius. He has been transferring the family's property in Yanan City to the imperial capital in the early years. Now there are almost no Besarius family in Yanan City. Enterprises, so he is happy to do such a simple and direct thing that can quell public anger.

Winston Churchill sneered and folded his arms, apparently waiting to see Freeman's joke.

The archbishop, who was the interim speaker, glanced at the other councilors, sighed, and raised his hand.

As soon as the archbishop raised his hand, the other members of the council immediately lost their composure. The will of the choral group can have a decisive impact on the entire chamber in a practical sense——

This is not only because of the conversion of faith that the Holy Light makes people, but also because the relationship chains born of faith connect the big men together, and all power and interests are stably transmitted through these chains, which makes the "will of the Holy Light" "Can have a considerable impact on most people.

The most important thing is that the choral group has the power to interfere with society in a legal sense. Even a "tough guy" like Winston Churchill has to give in to the choral group-because the choral group is the imperial army. actual controller.

After the archbishop raised his hand in agreement, other councilors raised their hands one after another.

Charles counted the names of the people who raised their hands according to the previous form, and said:
"Unanimous vote."

"So, everyone, we are about to release news to the outside world. We will negotiate with the organizers of the parade in two hours. Please discuss the specific matters of the negotiation before then."

In the end, the House of Representatives made a decision to [divide the benefits and hand them over to the workers to quell the riot].

For members of parliament, in the past, a small bill would take half a month to discuss, but this time the form of urgency is completely different from before, and they must hurry up.

Freeman looked at the other congressmen who were moving, feeling more and more uncomfortable.

He clearly knew that it was wrong to do so, but this was already the limit of what he could do. He probably knew what was going to happen next, so he decided in his heart that he must play a role in the negotiation after two hours and resolve the conflict. reduce to a minimum...
