After the first round of voting, they moved on to the next topic, which was the one that had been giving Baiyi a headache: the military intervention in the Black Fertile Lands. ̄??? ????? ???? ????? c? ??????? ⑦.% .lā
The Black Fertile Lands was a newly discovered world, and its civilization was still in the feudal era. The entire world was covered with fertile black soil, which was rich in natural resources. However, the political situation there was not very stable, and the various feudal regimes were always at each other's throats.
The New Empire's technological prowess, which was centuries ahead of the Black Fertile Lands, had quickly won the allegiance of those regimes. After CC's exploration, they discovered that there was nothing to be gained from the Black Fertile Lands. Other than supplying Baiyi with some agricultural products and special handicrafts, the Black Fertile Lands did not have much to do with the Black Fertile Lands.
Just last year, however, the Dole family, which the Merchant Walker and Undine belonged to, discovered a large amount of silicon ore! Silicon was one of the core materials used in the production of various magic-powered electronic products. Due to its high demand, it was extremely valuable! The New Empire's main source of raw materials had long been monopolized by the Black Fertile Lands. The Archmage's Future Tech Group and the Fairies' Lush Crafts Group.
These two companies were the two largest electronics manufacturers in the New Empire. The Archmage's company relied mainly on technological prowess, while the Fairies relied mainly on price and user experience. The two companies had divided the high-end electronics market among themselves.
As for the Fairies, who worshiped nature and loved the arts, they would not associate themselves with electronics. This was because all living things were fickle. If they wanted to live a good life and keep up with the times, they would have to change.
These two vested interests were inextricably linked to Baiyi. For example, the Sorcerer Walker's wife, Sylvia, the Fairy Walker, was the biggest beneficiary of Green Creations. She had even gifted Baiyi a portion of Green Creations on their 2000th wedding anniversary. That was why Baiyi's wife, Sylvia the Fairy Walker, was the biggest beneficiary of Green Creations. She even gifted Baiyi a portion of Green Creations on their 2000th wedding anniversary.
The discovery of the new silicon ore was bad news for these two vested interests, especially when they found out that it was discovered by the Dole family. Ever since the Dole family moved to the New World, they were no longer satisfied with their Y-product business. They had been looking for opportunities to expand their business, and the emerging electronics industry was their main focus. The Merchant Walker and Undine had been planning for a long time, trying to challenge the original hegemon.
Once the Dole family won the rights to mine and operate the new silicon ore, they would have the right to challenge the new hegemon. This was exactly what the vested interests wanted.
Thus, a series of tit for tat ensued. However, the Dole family had been preparing for this day for a long time. The original interests did not react fast enough, so the Dole family gained the upper hand. The situation was irreversible, and the Empire's electronics industry was about to usher in a new giant.
At this critical juncture, the local government in charge of the P mineral vein in the Black Rich World had an internal conflict and it was getting worse and worse. It seemed like it was going to be chaotic for a long time … The mine would definitely not be able to be mined anymore. s3();
The Archmage patted his chest and assured Baiyi that he did not use any unfair means, nor did he meddle in the internal affairs of the vassal world. He would never instigate a civil war. He was not that kind of person!
The Fairy Sylvia had changed into the most sexy lingerie she could find in her wardrobe, and as she stroked up and down Baiyi's body, she whispered, "Dearest AI, it's been 2000 years since we were lovers in the Void. Don't you know me by now? I'm not the kind of woman who would take advantage of others. We fairies have always been peaceful, and we value honor and fairness more than our lives. This has nothing to do with me! "
Baiyi was speechless. The truth was, the Empire had not found any evidence that the Dole family was involved in this matter. However, an unnamed councilman had 'accidentally' revealed to the media that the Empire had obtained concrete evidence and was considering their next move.
However, there was no evidence, and the Empire did not meddle in the vassal world's affairs, so they did not care about the civil war. The Dole family's years of hard work was about to be destroyed. At this critical moment, Undine, whom they had not seen for a long time, came looking for Baiyi again and rekindled their love for each other.
After coming to the New World, the two of them had a secret relationship that no one knew about. However, when Baiyi married a dragon-lady of a different race but did not consider Undine, the prideful woman chose to leave the irresponsible scumbag.
Many years had passed since they last met, and Undine had come prepared. She was still as young and beautiful as she had been when they first met, and she did everything she could to make Baiyi taste the sweetness of first love. In the end, she lay on his chest like a docile kitten, and her legs, which were only clad in black over-the-knee socks, were intertwined with his. She said coyly, "My dear, I don't blame you for not choosing me last year, but this time, you have to stand by my side! No! No! No! No! That's right! You're right! No, you have to stand on the side of justice and fairness! "
The next day, however, a councilman proposed to use military force against the Black Fertile Realm to restore its political stability. If passed, the Empire's Air Force and Airborne Division would be able to quell the unrest within twenty-four hours, and the mining of the mineral vein would be put on the agenda.
Thus, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle of words and fistfights, and in the end, Baiyi was left with only one vote to decide.
At that time, Baiyi said that he did not have enough information to make a decision, so he pushed the issue back for another round. After that, he came up with all sorts of excuses to push the issue back three times. Today, this was the fifth time the issue had been discussed.
Yesterday, in order to help Baiyi make a better judgment, the Archmage had called Baiyi and had a long, hour-long conversation with him. Sylvia, who was in another world negotiating a large procurement contract, had someone deliver a love letter to Baiyi. It was written in her own handwriting. The words were so explicit, and the language was so pompous that it almost sounded like a pornographic novel.
That night, Aya was suddenly invited to a special lecture on childbirth by a renowned professor from the Imperial University. As soon as she stepped out of the door, Undine, who was wearing nothing but her lingerie, walked into Baiyi's room.
It could be said that both sides were willing to risk everything. That was why the choice was so difficult for Baiyi. However, the key point that made it difficult for him was not the choice between his wife and his ex-lover, but the problem of whether or not there was a need for a new player to enter the market. Would it affect the current economic and political situation? What kind of impact would it have on the development of the industry? What were the pros and cons? What would happen to the other vassal states if they were forced to intervene? What would happen to the other vassal states? What would happen to the other vassal states?
There were too many factors that needed to be considered, and the slightest change could affect everything else. Even Baiyi's professional think-tank had not been able to come up with a final consensus.
However, the Councilors did not care about such things. They would only work hard for their employers, and they were willing to do so. For example, the Councilor on the stage was carried up by two security marionettes. He was wearing a full set of heavy plate armor, which made him look like a metal can.
"Forgive my rudeness, Your Majesty, but in order to resolve this issue that has been bothering us for a long time, I have no choice but to present myself in this manner," the Councilor said in a low, muffled voice.
The last time this issue was discussed, the Councilor was giving a speech on the stage. However, a Councilor, who was later diagnosed as suffering from intermittent X psychosis, suddenly rushed up to the stage and knocked the Councilor out with a single punch. Since the voting had not yet begun, the issue had been skipped, and today, the Councilor was dressed like this.
According to the relevant regulations, weapons, magic, and combat chi were not allowed to be used in the Senate's boxing matches. The restrictions on defensive equipment, however, were less stringent, as long as it was not enchanted armor or magic-powered armor. Therefore, the Councilor had wrapped himself up like a metal can, and no one could stop him.
"At the same time, I have to remind you, Your Majesty, that this is the fifth time this issue has been discussed. According to our supreme Constitution, you must make a final decision today. Although you have requested for the Senate to reconsider this issue, claiming that it is too complicated and complicated, the results of all three hearings have been the same. This issue does not need to be reconsidered. Therefore, today, I hope that Your Majesty, with your supreme wisdom, will guide us in the final direction," the Councilor continued.
Baiyi ignored the Councilor. For the first time in his life, he regretted giving himself too little power and giving the Senate too much power. If he had not, things would not have come to this.
"Dear AI …" The dragon-lady knew what was bothering Baiyi. She leaned closer to him and whispered, "Should I swallow him?"
Baiyi hurriedly shook his head. He was grateful for the dragon-lady's thoughtfulness, but it would be better if she could just flatten him.
Just then, a royal guard clad in the latest generation of magic-powered armor suddenly rushed into the venue. The metal can shrieked in fear, thinking that the Emperor had predicted his plan and had arranged for an even more ruthless intermittent X psychosis to deal with him. However, the guard did not even spare him a glance. He flew straight to Baiyi's side and whispered in his ear, bringing him shocking news.
When Baiyi heard the news, he slammed his palm on the table in front of him, shattering it into pieces. He stood up abruptly and left the hall. At the same time, the people below the stage were ringing their cell phones, conveying the same message.
