Chapter 571 Ron's Vision

Sodrak Palace.

George III sat on the throne, his eyes sharp like a cold sword of judgment.

As an angel, even if he is only at Sequence Two and was just promoted in recent years, he will not be easily controlled within the Augustus family.

Although His ideas were contrary to those of William I, it was obviously not easy for this Sequence One "Hand of Order" to deal with George III.

Otherwise, He would not have united all the core members of the family at the family meeting to put pressure on George III.

But unfortunately, this kind of pressure is not enough to make an angel bow his head and submit to the tyranny of Master Ron.

"Anyone can sacrifice for the family, but no one can be sacrificed. I have finally won power and authority, and accomplished a feat that no king in history has accomplished. Why should I be sacrificed?"

As a potential reserve for the Black Emperor, this guy's personality is undoubtedly very consistent with this path.

"You two, Stratford has made it very clear why I summoned you here. I want to know what you think."

Looking at the two people who were the most powerful and influential in the Loen nobility, the House of Lords, the church, and business, George III asked the long-held question.

If you want to fight against the Church of the God of Time and Space and the World Peace Company, you must not resort to violence.

Otherwise, it would be very bad if the petty God of Time and Space who was hiding in Backlund came to attack him.

In the quiet palace, the new Duke Nigan of this generation spoke first:

"Your Majesty, as you can see, the power of those outsiders has become strong enough..."

What he meant was that it was a little too late to say this now.

However, no matter what your position or identity is, sometimes the most important thing in front of your leader is not to come up with a plan, but to express your attitude.

"Your Majesty, we must punish World Peace Corporation for disrupting the market economy. They evaded taxes, engaged in malicious competition, and completely violated our country's laws."

"And their church has also harmed the interests of most people. Many people have changed their faith because of this. The Storm Church is also very dissatisfied with this matter."

George III sat on the throne and looked at this generation's Duke Negan with some satisfaction.

The original Duke Negan, along with his villa servants, wife, and children, all disappeared overnight. Only the current Duke Negan who lived outside escaped.

Although he is not as good as his father and all he says is empty talk, he is still able to convey some important information.

For example, the attitude of the Storm Church.

"I'm equally dissatisfied. Humph, if you're dissatisfied, then you should take action. It seems that the Storm Church also knows that this matter is difficult to handle and does not intend to be the first to take action..."

George III hesitated for a while, as if considering something, and then slowly said:
"You are right. World Peace Company maliciously annexed factories and enterprises, and resisted taxation and smuggled. It must be punished."

"What method do you think can be used to complete the punishment?"

Is there any way to deal with this? Just order them to stop business, rectify the situation, and conduct an inspection!

Little Duke Negan was stunned for a moment, wondering if the king had lost his mind.

However, his usual caution made him lower his head and stare at the white glazed teacup on his right hand side without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, that depends on how far we want to go."

Hearing this, George III was deeply relieved and immediately looked at Earl Hall, who understood him well.

This very capable earl is obviously not one of those useless nobles who just eat and take advantage of others for free. He can really come up with many practical plans.

"What if we want to push them all back to the South Continent?" George III asked.

"Then we have no choice but to take tough measures, which will probably result in a lose-lose situation for both sides."

"You know, some things must be eradicated immediately, otherwise they will be noticed the second or third time."

Earl Hall straightened his cuffs and continued:
"Your Majesty, the current situation is no longer under our control. To use Roselle's proverb, the die is cast. No matter what, we can only suppress the other party, not eliminate them directly."

The count rubbed his temples, feeling very tired about this mess.

Although he did consider what Ron had said to him, and although his little daughter did have an amazing talent in handling affairs that he had not discovered.

But when he actually faced the king in a high position and tried to sort out the current situation, he found that the situation had become a mess.

The situation was so complicated and confusing that even this experienced banker and politician couldn't understand it.

"Does he think that by opening up factories and attracting more followers of the gods, he can take root in Loen and overthrow the royal family?"

"I'm afraid even a three-year-old wouldn't have such a childish idea! ?"

Restraining the doubts in his mind, the Earl felt that he had to give the guy who had taken his cabbage some way out.

"Your Majesty, I think we can take some tough measures and first order those factories that clearly violate the law to rectify their problems."

“Archbishop Anthony also mentioned that the peace and happiness of the Goddess’ followers are of utmost importance.”

Hearing what Earl Hall said, George III neither nodded nor shook his head, but changed the subject and said:
"I heard that you recently let your daughter get involved in some administrative affairs?"

Earl Hall's scalp stiffened, but he was still an experienced man after all. He did not show any abnormality, but smiled very naturally:

"The goddess taught us that men and women are equal. At least I think Audrey is doing well now. She is no less than her two brothers."

Hearing this, George III also smiled and said:

"That's a good child. Her name is Audrey, right? I heard the queen mention her before. I didn't expect she had such ability."

"It seems that our kingdom will welcome another outstanding countess!"

"That depends entirely on his two brothers," Earl Hall replied humorously.

"The Church of Night has an ambiguous attitude, but it is generally on my side. What they want is not radicalism but stability."

In any country, both radical and moderate factions are indispensable. After all, a policy cannot be applicable for decades or hundreds of years.

At this time, the king needs to make accurate judgments and avoid dominance, otherwise the huge steam train of the kingdom will lose its balance.

'What an old fox.'

George III secretly glanced at Earl Hall again and cursed in his heart.

He pretends all day long. If his men had not accidentally learned that Earl Hall's youngest daughter was secretly investigating Viscount Stratford, he would probably have believed it.

"It seems that the methods used to treat those nobles were too harsh, so that some nobles felt threatened?"

"No, the Hall family is backed by the Church of Darkness. Why would he do this? If he really feels threatened, then it is unreasonable for him to get involved here."

"Could it be the Church of Darkness who ordered this? Do they want more benefits?"

After taking another deep look at the old man with a moustache, George III felt a headache.

Even He cannot replace an earl, a member of the kingdom's House of Lords, without reason.

"These are troubled times. Backlund is already complicated enough. We cannot afford any risks now."

"We must replace him with a less prestigious earl who is easier to control."

"His eldest son has been involved in the kingdom's political circles for many years, so he is not so easy to deal with. His second son is now a Sequence 5 Beyonder and has a high reputation in the army, but he is not a good choice either..."

"In this case, only his little daughter is left to deal with..."

After ruling out a series of "wrong" answers, George III still chose a noble girl who seemed easy to control and innocent. It was because young people of this age were easy to fool, and everything they did could be done under his nose.

There was silence in the palace. Upon seeing this, Prime Minister Aguseid Nigan looked around, stood up from his seat, and said sincerely:

"Your Majesty, our troops stationed in the southern continent have to fight those barbarians every once in a while."

"Those young people risked their lives for the sake of the country and the king and his ministers and rushed to the front. If we don't make the right decision, it will inevitably make people feel disheartened."

So shameless...

Earl Hall curled his lips. He had never seen such a shameless guy.

You talk about the invasion and colonial war so refreshingly and elegantly, why don’t you go to heaven!

However, the Earl also understood that since the emergence of the World Peace Company and its large-scale control over the shipping routes between the north and south continents.

Those nobles who became rich by plundering the southern continent suffered heavy losses.

The kingdom failed to catch up with the first industrial reform, and now the second chance is right in front of them. How could they give up?

The various complex interests involved cannot be resolved with just a few words from him.

However, the Count stood up at this moment.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is right, but we must consider practical factors. Pointless conflicts are a burden to the kingdom!"

"Oh? Does the Earl mean that those young people who are fighting for the interests of the kingdom in the southern continent are a burden?"

The Prime Minister of the Kingdom, Aguseid Negan, took advantage of the situation and made a sarcastic remark.

And this generation's Duke Negan, the Conservative Party members also echoed:
"Count, Emperor Roselle once said that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. Do you want our soldiers to die in vain?"

Hearing this, Earl Hall, who had a small moustache, did not hesitate and retorted:

"They are outstanding young people, so we should be more cautious and not act on impulse."

All of a sudden, the quiet palace became extremely lively, and the Earl was not at all at a disadvantage in a one-on-two situation.

"enough!"

"Do you still have the dignity of a nobleman to quarrel here?"

"This is a palace, not a market!"

There are many high-sounding words, and the core summary is just for the interests of their respective parties.

George III drummed his fingers on the brass throne and declared in an unquestionable tone:

"Establish a Backlund Tax Investigation Committee to thoroughly investigate all companies in the kingdom that evade and resist taxes."

"All companies that do not comply with regulations will be closed down and operations will be suspended. If the violations are serious, the confiscations will be handed over to the state."

“A smuggling investigation team has been set up at the Kingdom’s seaports to crack down on illegal smuggling and illegal immigration.”

"According to the Equal Faith Act jointly formulated by the three major churches and the kingdom, the Church of the God of Time and Space has completely violated the law."

“Let the deacons of the three major churches in the military send personnel to seal them off and wait for further notification.”

"Also, let Amyrius Levitt serve as the Minister of Defense and thoroughly investigate the enemy spies hiding in Backlund!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Earl Hall was stunned, but even Duke Negan and the Prime Minister of the Kingdom were also stunned.

Are you being a bit too radical?

Count Hall reacted immediately and took a step forward.

"His Majesty……"

"That's enough. Every time I think of the young people who sacrificed their lives in the southern continent, I feel sad. As the king of Loen and their backer, I cannot let their efforts go to waste!"

"Count, this is a life-and-death war. We cannot dwell on the past!"

At this point, George III's tone suddenly softened, and he ran down the throne in a pretentious manner, holding Earl Hall's hand.

As if he said sincerely:

“Holden, you are under too much pressure. Continuous poor decision-making is not your problem.”

"During this period of time, you should go back and take good care of your health. Let your favorite daughter handle your government affairs."

what?
Seeing this, Earl Hall cursed the old fox in his heart, and at the same time, he seemed to be sincere and held George III's hand and said:
"Your Majesty, I'm not tired, and Audrey is still young."

"No, Holden, I think you're tired!"

"Besides, shouldn't young people exercise? How can they grow without exercise?"

George III smiled wryly and then walked towards the brass throne.

"That's it, that's it!"

………………

67 Williams Street.

"Tsk, if I'm not mistaken, my father-in-law should have been fired, right?"

Ron put the papers filled with complex symbols and knowledge pollution in his notebook, and threw the 0-01 that he was constantly experimenting with back to the City of Disaster.

Alia stood by and watched this scene, and asked in a low voice:

"My Lord, I do not understand why you asked Amyrius to tell King George III about Miss Hall's investigation of Viscount Stratford."

“Isn’t He our enemy?”

Hearing this, the blond boy raised his head and looked at the brainless witch with disdain.

“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.”

"You don't think that if the Loen royal family is driven out of power, the people will accept the new king, right?"

"Rossel did plagiarize, no, he had the reputation of inventing and innovating, but we have nothing."

"So we have to use some tricks when necessary, and we have to wait for the right time."

"Uh, when?" Alia asked, still confused.

The blond boy raised his eyebrows and chuckled:
"When the interests of all people in the kingdom are harmed."

"At that time, order will no longer exist, and the voice of the people will be above everything else, so much so that even the gods above will be swayed by them."

"There is a savior who comes from among the people. She raises her arms and stirs up a wave, causing the gods to look at her and angels to fall."

"What a perfect play!"

Hearing this, Alia was stunned for a moment, then realized something and said in astonishment:
"Master, so that's why you opened the factory regardless of the cost and gave the workers and the middle class higher benefits and treatment?"

Ron Sotos raised his arm and continued:
"Yeah, when people realize they can live a better life, who would want to go back to the past?"
