Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 1518 Murang's Viewpoint 3
"Now, if the price of salt and coal is lowered, it is equivalent to slowing down those paddling people." Mulan said while tapping his finger on the table: "The most intuitive expression is that those There is a rest for those who have toiled at the boats—not for a day or two, but ever since. I know how hard the 'crew' are, and I know nothing better than that, as soon as I go downstairs, Go around other offices and see the sweat on their foreheads, the sore wrists they shake to relieve the sore wrists, and the dark circles around their eyes from staying up late, and you will know how hard they are working. Every few months, There will be reports of officials collapsing at work - some are exhausted and sick, and need to recuperate for a while; It is impossible not to long for rest."

It seems that he is not the kind of serious and unreasonable person...

"However, it is not so simple to give people who are rowing a rest." said the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications. "This metaphor needs to be enriched: these crew members have been well treated, someone has fanned them to wipe their sweat, and when they rest There are delicious food to enjoy, as well as rich means of entertainment; however, once they start to rest, they will have to get water to drink by themselves, and the water is no longer cold and delicious, but also has an inexplicable muddy taste; There is no longer fat and tender beef and mutton to enjoy, but rough grain rice instead; when they feel bored, they can only fiddle with their fingers. Is this price acceptable?"

Well, if it's me, then of course I can accept it - I can play in the dream world for a lifetime.Cough, even if I put this aside, I still feel that it is acceptable, after all, those people are really working too hard.You can entertain yourself without entertainment measures, and you can study food and other things...

"Some people can accept it, but some people can't; and this part of feeling 'unacceptable' is enough to affect the normal operation of the entire country." Murang's voice sank, "When there is a problem in the country, who Can you take on this responsibility? Even if you throw me in jail, the problem will still not be resolved.”

Ok……

"However, these are not the most urgent."

"There is one more condition: Beside this ship, there is a similar ship—the two of them are similar in size, performance, and manpower. The most important point is that the main guns of the two ships Mounted on the stern."

"When one of the ships passed the other by a certain distance, the main guns could be fired to sink the lagging ship."

"Part of the crew of the sunk ship will drown, and the other part will be captured on the ship ahead."

"Since the relations between the crews of the two ships are quite bad, the treatment of the captured crew members will be quite bad: their belongings will be robbed, their wives will be raped; they will be assigned to do the hardest work, eat It is bad food with a bad smell; their dignity is not as good as used toilet paper, but in order to survive they have to bear the humiliation, otherwise they will be tied with big stones and thrown into the sea."

"Everyone on both ships is quite aware of that."
