In the evening, Lynch received a call from the Provincial Governor of Drag.
His call was transferred through underwater cables to the Federation, then through the Federation to Gafura, yet there was barely any delay, prompting the Provincial Governor of Drag to marvel at the wonders of technology.
"I’ve read the letter you had passed to , and I choose the second option." The Provincial Governor of Drag was not soone who hesitates to make decisions. Though he often appeared cautious and careful in his choices, once he decided, he would execute imdiately.
Most rulers possess this quality; they don’t change their stance ceaselessly, fearing they might miss every opportunity and timing.
After his son said such words, he knew that so things were irretrievable, and since they couldn’t be retrieved, he wouldn’t attempt to, as it didn’t serve his interests.
Moreover, he didn’t plan to continue holding that position. If prior changes in Nagariel could still keep his thinking aligned with the changes and so things were within his consideration, then the current matters have already completely surpassed the boundaries of his thoughts.
For instance, free literacy programs and job provisions. Before the Federation people arrived, all rulers and the Pretton Trading Company, those called the third ruling class foreigners, never considered letting Nagariel people acquire knowledge.
Ignorant people are the easiest to rule, as any reason suggested under "The Divine Word" makes them obediently follow your orders.
Additionally, their not knowledgeable minds won’t question any decisions of the rulers, lacking the intellectual literacy; they only know obedience.
This is also why Nagariel hasn’t developed over the years; they are wholly engrossed in the tricks of deceiving the populace to maintain power, unable to extricate themselves.
The Federation people’s thods left them puzzled; the Federation people actually let those learn reading and writing, which is the exact reason the newspaper had a massive impact.
Before this, those capable of normal reading, writing, and understanding the aning of every sentence were mostly the privileged class and ruling class; the common people had no capital to receive education. In other words, newspapers or magazines were not strictly issued for ordinary people.
Even if so commoners could understand, it wouldn’t cause a significant impact. As for the privileged class and ruling class, they wouldn’t raise their fists to hit themselves.
But now, literate people are too many. A newspaper, several articles, propelled a collective movent among the nation’s young groups. The Federation people’s thods indeed took the Nagariel rulers by surprise.
However, aren’t they afraid themselves?
Releasing the beast from its cage, the sa things used to besiege Nagariel’s rulers today could later be used by others to trouble them; do they fear?
The Provincial Governor of Drag wanted to ask Lynch whether he feared, but he ultimately kept silent.
Actually, he could ask, Lynch wouldn’t refuse to answer him. Not only wouldn’t he refuse, but he’d tell him the Federation people aren’t afraid because, internally, they’ve battled wits and courage for many years, possessing rich experience in internal conflicts, and these experiences can readily transform into outward conflict experiences—first turning enemies into allies, then engaging in internal struggles.
Using this thod against Federation people?
The Federation capitalists would help those Nagariel laborers earning low wages understand what it ans to "respect the feelings of the heart."!
"I’m glad you made the right choice. So when do you plan to issue the statent?" Lynch was very pleased with the Provincial Governor of Drag’s choice. Being the first to advocate independence could bring nurous advantages.
Not considering the Provincial Governor’s personal benefits, within the United Developnt Company, once the company’s resolution is passed, Lynch’s work would be smoothly completed. Such high efficiency would make all board mbers see him in a different light.
Additionally, to let others see how standing on the right side could bring many benefits, so good internal resources would tilt toward Lynch, allowing him to benefit.
He initially thought the Provincial Governor would need so ti for ideological struggle before making such a wise decision, but surprisingly, it happened so quickly, an unexpected delight!
"Hmm... By the end of this week, I will announce my decision nationwide via telegram. I need to make so preparations beforehand, and there’s sothing else I wish to discuss with you."
"Go ahead."
The Provincial Governor of Drag slightly organized his thoughts and softly said, "After so ti when situations stabilize, I plan to have my son take over my current duties."
"The occurrences in recent tis have wearied ; my current state isn’t good and could collapse at any mont. I need to take a break."
He tentatively asked, "Once my son stabilizes, I plan to go to the Federation, to be with my family. I rember I can already collect my pension, correct?"
The "struggles" in Nagariel will undoubtedly intensify, and the Provincial Governor of Drag already senses it.
As one of the last rulers to grow up amidst power struggles, divine power struggles, and religious struggles, he senses the deadly scent dispersing from the brewing violent storm!
Once the royal family collapses, and places declare independence, after the nation gets ’dissembled’ by public opinion, these Federation people won’t stop; they’ll turn the swords towards those rulers.
Ultimately, they’ll cleanse the entire ruling class of Nagariel and support their own representatives. They don’t need thinkers; what they need is an obedient dog.
Through this process, various incidents bound to occur, filled with blood, cruelty, and brutality, currently make the Provincial Governor of Drag feel unsettling. He only wants to leave.
Lynch almost imdiately gave him an affirmative answer, "Wherever you choose to go is your freedom, my friend. Surely, the Federation is your best choice; you’ll love that place!"
With that said, Lynch paused, "I’ll wait for your good news."
The next day, almost all newspapers worldwide reported yesterday’s events, Nagariel’s royal family dispatched the Kingdom Guards at the Royal Palace square to attack unard civilians!
In massive photographs, people were beaten bloody, yet soldiers ant to protect were violently beating those they needed to protect.
This conflict resulted in seventy-one deaths, and over a thousand injuries, shocking the world!
In this civilized society, such terrifying conflict occurred; public opinion overwhelmingly criticized Nagariel’s royal family for their insanity, slaughtering civilians for power.
Following the reports went into detail describing incidents happening in the country, like when rulers traveled, police would beat pedestrians with batons to clear the way for rulers.
Various backward, ignorant, and vile societal phenona were exposed, and international public opinion reached its peak of disdain towards the royals of the Nagariel United Kingdom.
By now, it’s already April, and international financial landscapes have thus changed with Nagariel experiencing the first significant drop in foreign exchange since last year, dipping over five percent.
Thereafter, the Federation Governnt’s press spokesperson held a conference declaring to the international community that as a friendly diplomatic country to Nagariel, the Federation would assist Nagariel in stabilizing dostic situations soon, sternly rebuking so international speculators’ attempts at provocation.
The spokesperson also stated they have arrested several dostic rumor-mongers and are undergoing legal proceedings, ensuring those disrupting peace will pay a heavy price!
"Listen, ladies and gentlen, Nagariel’s situation will soon stabilize; I have an internal scoop..." At a private cocktail party in Bupen, a stock broker was discussing so intelligence he held among the crowd.
Watching those investors whose status is either unattainable high or ordinarily everyday, the broker felt sowhat excited in his heart.
When he ntioned "internal scoop," the room’s noise almost vanished instantly; people know too well the impact internal scoops have in the financial circles, holding their breath while watching the broker, yearning to grasp the scoop firsthand.
"It’s said the Federation Second Fleet will soon head to Nagariel, aiding the authorities in stabilizing the current situation. Once the unrest settles, everything returns to its original path."
"Ladies and gentlen, now is the perfect mont for bottom fishing; previously unseen spot goods are now everywhere, posing far less risk than futures. I’ve sold my just-bought house, betting it all on this bottom fishing."
"As long as it rebounds, my assets will double; the opportunity is rare, ladies and gentlen!"
...
Dostically and internationally, countless cocktail parties and stock brokers were striving to inform the public of one ssage: Galil wouldn’t drop but would go up.
Of course, these were factually based, like the Federation’s second fleet indeed began departing heading for Nagariel’s offshore, everything indicating that this widespread "internal scoop" wasn’t false information.
People once again, with heightened enthusiasm, invested, against the unstable dostic situation, miraculously violating natural market laws with Galil experiencing an increase!
Truly, once people beco frenzied, they can create formidable power.
Similarly, in Bupen, Li, looking at his nearly emptied account, sighed heavily. All Galil spot goods sold out, and far simpler than he imagined.
A sell order appears, imdiately gets frenziedly grabbed. He may not know what the end awaits those people, but he knows he has stepped another pace closer toward his dream.
