Chapter 226 The Value of Life

The three laws laid down by Zhou Li seem to have no basis, but in fact, these are all He negotiated the optimal solution overnight with Ivy and the others.

Because, his ultimate move needs these three laws to cover up.

“I wonder if you heard clearly?”

After the cold-sweaty oath-taker repeated the three laws, Zhou Li repeated his question. This time, no objection was raised, and the nobles also fell into silence after looking at each other in blank dismay, and no one objected.

They know that at this time, Zhou Li has set off his “Force” through words and violence, and now Zhou Li is like a wild beast that is rampant and fierce, and it is tantamount to confronting him now. Not happy to find.

“Since everyone agrees, I will continue to serve as ceremony.”

After glancing at the people with resentment on their faces, Zhou Li, who has a small mind, directly remembers them. In my heart, I will use them when I am ready. Then, he looked towards Christine and said, “General Christine, you should be hosting the ceremony next, right?”

“Yes.”

Feeling the gaze from all directions, Kristin reluctantly nodded. Now even if he shouts in public, “I’m announcing something, I have nothing to do with Zhou Li”, no one will believe him. He got up from his seat, then took over the device for sound amplification, and said to everyone:

“Then proceed to the second section of the ceremony, awarding medals.”

After that The process was very short, except that Christine received the medal from Zhou Li and then awarded Zhou Li the little episode, everything went very smoothly.

Then, it came more smoothly.

In the last session, when the nobility voted, Zhou Li suddenly said to everyone

“Everyone, you all know how Duke Mintz died.”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd suddenly quieted down. A few timid and even panicked expressions appeared on their faces. They subconsciously believed that Zhou Li meant to kill themselves like the Duke of Mintz, but Zhou Li’s next words reassured them a little.

“Don’t worry, I’m not threatening you. I’m just trying to help you.”

With both hands on the table and leaning forward slightly, Zhou Li smiled at everyone Said: “First of all, let everyone know about science, the death of Duke Mintz has nothing to do with me. His death is an inevitable event.”

When they heard this sentence, the faces of these people His expression changed immediately. According to their own intelligence, the Duke of Mintz died of a heart attack following a visit by Zhou Li, as did Lady Maya. And now, Zhou Li can actually say “their deaths have nothing to do with me”, which makes everyone feel dumbfounded by Zhou Li’s shameless.

“I know what you’re thinking.” Zhou Li didn’t care too much, and continued: “But it doesn’t matter, there’s no advantage to me, just a big heart and a big belly. What I want to tell you is, The Duke of Mintz and the others died because the grotesque itself is a sacrifice. When a person becomes a grotesque, death is bound to come.”

When everyone in the audience heard Zhou Li’s statement Fan’s words also moved a little thought. They seemed to sense what Zhou Li wanted to say, but no one wanted to be a standout, and they were all just watching.

“Ai, what a terrifying monster. You think about it, weird, what a hateful bunch of people.” The appearance made people feel nauseated, “You said that one day, if you eat hot pot and sing songs, you will suddenly be infected and become grotesque. The wife is gone, the child is dead, and so are you. In the end, the whole family will be all over the place. It’s cheap for outsiders, and there’s nothing left, you say, don’t you terrifying?”

Although there was some disdain on the faces of everyone, they still believed more or less. After all, the current situation is that the Duke of Mintz and his family are ruined, and the dignified duke is now like a rotten and smelly corpse waiting for others to slaughter. Therefore, after hearing Zhou Li’s example, everyone resonated more or less.

“You are the pillars of the country and the public servants of the people. You said, I am the grand consul hired by the dignified Yingnan government, the hero of the twelve quarters, the darling of the gods, and the sworn oath of Magnum III. Brother, can you let all of you suddenly die at home one day for no apparent reason and become a hateful monster?”

Slapped the table, Zhou Li was impassioned and said in a strong voice, “No! I don’t allow this kind of thing. Happened!”

“So, the government specially dispatched 5,000 soldiers to protect your mansions, prevent grotesque invasions, and let you live in a warm and safe Jordan! This is what I should It’s what I have to do!”

haha, your Yan Country map is a bit short, the dagger came out so quickly.

At this time, the white-haired old man stood up helplessly under the expectations of everyone, and said to Zhou Li: “Mr. Zhou Li, this is too much. We are Yingnan’s glory, Yingnan. Bloodline that has been passed down for generations, you can’t insult us like that. Surveillance in the name of security, that’s not what hero does.”

“Oh, it is now.”

Zhou Li nodded, and naturally responded.

Don’t you refute what you said earlier?

The old man’s complexion stiffened, and then he looked at the head and said firmly: “No, banning us from commercial and political activities is already provoking all of our nobles, if you want to put Legion people in Coming to our territory is a naked declaration of war. Mr. Zhou Li, our relationship should not have been so rigid.”

“You’re right.”

Out of the blue To everyone’s surprise, in the face of the old man’s tough tone, Zhou Li didn’t start to line up as expected, on the contrary, he actually surrendered.

“Okay, then since you don’t want our protection, I can’t do anything about it. After all, this kind of thing can’t be forced. I’m still a reasonable person.”

Use With a slightly regretful tone, Zhou Li waved his hand and said to the bewildered nobles: “Okay, everyone, go back, it’s none of your business.”

Is this over?

Are you out of trouble?

In just three hours, all the PTSD nobles looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one left first. Seeing this, Zhou Li clicked his tongue and said in a bad tone: “What? What do you want to do? The government didn’t open fire today, so get out of here.”

“Do you have nothing else to do? “

The old man glanced at Zhou Li cautiously and asked tentatively.

“Then let’s talk about whether you can donate more gold coins to the disaster victims.”

In one sentence, the nobles laughed, watching the nobles who were leaving the stage one after another. , a playful smile gradually appeared on Zhou Li’s face. He touched the hero exclusive on his waist and smiled even more.

********************

The consul came, and the sky was there.

Public opinion is a fuel that can easily be ignited. When Zhou Li’s words and three laws were fully broadcast by the Jordan Evening News, the entire Jordanian civilian class was boiling. They had never seen anyone who cared so much about the commoners against the nobles. What made them even more unexpected was that Zhou Li didn’t just talk and do things, he really did things.

It turns out that charity is really donating money to us poor people!

At this time, the prestige of the grand consul began to accumulate in Jordan. When the first batch of supplies was delivered to the civilians, most of the people knew this sudden hero.

Of course, the officials and nobles have a deeper understanding.

They deeply realized Zhou Li’s shameless.

“What? Withdraw troops?!”

The wealthy businessman named Kent was shocked when he received the news from his subordinates. He quickly stood up and asked his opponent, “What do they mean? Why did the troops suddenly withdraw?”

At nine o’clock in the morning, the soldiers who were supposed to be stationed near the Kent mansion suddenly packed up their equipment. Military trucks pulled soldiers out in batches, and most of the military tents were removed. This made the wealthy and half-timbered rich businessman panic.

It’s not that he doesn’t have his own professional bodyguards, but only a dozen people can’t mention on equal terms with an army. Even more how, my home with several hundred acres of land is really too big, and the soldiers around the two factories are also stationed in contact, so I can’t protect all my territory with that little manpower.

“Boss, they said that they received the order of the Grand Consul, and all the soldiers began to gather in the center of the city. According to their meaning, the Consul is to protect the main area and give up… the uninhabited land.”

p>

Kent was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted. His mansion covers dozens of acres of land, and the surrounding 100 acres have been transformed into gardens and factories by himself. Although this piece of splendorous and majestic has been repaired by itself, it is almost all of its own family and servants, and there is not much land actually used.

“He is human life as grass!”

The furious Kent slapped the table and shouted angrily: “He’s crazy? He dares to threaten me in this way? Impossible, I’m impossible to submit to him!”

“But…”

The men on the side suddenly hesitated, he looked all around, and whispered to Kent: “The group of soldiers The commander told me that the Archon allows them to protect the commoners.”

“What do you mean?” Kent, who was a little calm, looked towards his subordinates, solemnly asked: “Did he explain it to you?”

“Explained, explained.”

Nodded again and again, and his subordinates quickly replied: “The man said that if there are enough civilians in the adult’s territory, this place will not be a deserted place.”

p>

so that’s how it is .

Hearing this, Kent immediately understood what Zhou Li was thinking. The biggest problem in Jordan is those civilians. Because of the plague, most of the civilian settlements have become plagued areas and are completely uninhabitable. Existing aid stations simply cannot accommodate so many people. And now the one who owns most of the land is a rich man like himself.

“He wants to kill two birds with one stone.”

Kent sat back in his chair, his face gloomy. He knew that not only himself, but other nobles or wealthy businessmen who owned a large piece of land were also treated the same as him. This is a blatant threat, but a just and honorable conspiracy. Because I and the others just subconsciously rejected Zhou Li’s “request to station” yesterday, totally didn’t expect Zhou Li to play word games and remove the original army.

“By the way, they also gave me a letter.”

At this time, the men took out a letter and gave it to Kent. Facing this subordinate who was always half-talking, Kent sighed helplessly, then opened the envelope, when he saw the contents of the letter, Kent’s eyes froze.

On a piece of white paper, there is only a short sentence.

“Quality soldiers are limited, first come, first served.”

“Broken.”

Kent as if was struck by seeing this sentence lightning. He didn’t expect, Zhou Li would do such a thing. The meaning of this letter is very simple. There are not many soldiers who can send you rich people as bodyguards. First come, first served, as for the last one…

Then don’t blame Zhou Li for being unkind. .

What a ruthless provocation.

Kent gritted his teeth, looking at the short text on the letter, the veins on his hands burst. After a while, he put down the letter feebly and said to his subordinates: “Now, immediately tell the people in the military camp and give me the list of civilians.”

“Understood.”

The biggest advantage of his subordinates is obedience. He ran out without any doubts.

Looking at the speeding back of his subordinates, Kent’s hand holding the letter was weakly released. He knew that at this time, the originally solid noble group was easily disintegrated by Zhou Li. And Zhou Li, nothing to lose.

What kind of monster is he?

“How many replies have you had now?”

In the Archon’s office, Zhou Li put down the lunch box Elma had just handed him, and then asked Roja beside him. .

“There are thirteen people in total.”

Roja handed the list to Zhou Li, his tone full of admiration, “As you expected, when they learned about the soldiers stationed there After it was limited, they immediately blocked the news, for fear that other nobles would know about it, and then contacted us privately.”

“It’s normal.”

Just a sip After the honey cake, Zhou Li glanced at the list and said to Roja: “Don’t think how close the relationship between these nobles is. The reason why they can unite now is because they have to fight against me to protect their own interests. But If I were suddenly linked to their interests, they would abandon former allies without the slightest hesitation.”

“What’s next? What are we going to do?”

Actually , there is no shortage of soldiers at all, nor is it limited. Not all nobles who own their own land are intimidated by the method of “withdrawing troops”. In fact, Zhou Li just took 16 people as the first batch of experiments.

As expected, these 16 nobles panicked immediately after being threatened with withdrawing their troops, and went completely crazy when they got the news that the soldiers were limited. .

“Send a message to the remaining nobles and tell them that the number of soldiers is running out.”

After drinking a sip of honey coffee, Zhou Li took out a tissue and wiped it with satisfaction Wipe your hands. Roja on the side responded and began to pass Zhou Li’s orders down.

“By the way, Mr. Zhou Li, I want to ask you a question.”

After conveying Zhou Li’s order, Roja just wanted to go to his office and seemed to want to Suddenly, he asked Zhou Li, “What would happen to you if those nobles were really rotten and were not ready to accept the garrison?”

After hearing this question, Zhou Li thought about it. A moment, after a while, he raised his head, looked towards the misty sky outside the window, and said lightly:

“I will withdraw without the slightest hesitation.”

“Their My life is as valuable as a commoner.”
