Chapter 260 The Cloud of War

Lavinia patted her abdomen lovingly, and said hesitantly: "Ming, Chang'an is really prosperous now, I am very happy today, thank you for your company. But, is there going to be a war?"

"Oh? Did you see it?" Zhong Ming joked.

"I hate it!" Lavinia knew nothing about it, and she used her two fingers to touch Zhong Ming's waist, intending to pinch it and twist it hard.

Can't pinch it...too hard.

After some laughing and fighting, the two returned to the topic.

Lavinia stroked her hair and said:

"Is it hard to see? Is there anything unusual about me seeing it? Ming, you underestimate me too."

"Now the nobles are eager to fight for military titles, and the factory owners want more raw materials and markets.

Merchants are thinking about fighting for a bigger market, and citizens are also thinking about fighting for the sake of factories not laying off workers and reducing production.

Even the farmers in the fields knew that the grain prices in the surrounding countries of Yaxia were high, and they hoped to sell the grain at a high price.

No one in Yashai doesn't want to fight now. "

Zhong Ming's eyes flickered, and he sighed: "Yes, no one in Yaxia doesn't want to fight now."

"Me too."

Due to oversupply and serious imbalance between supply and demand, overcapacity will lead to deflation and falling prices.

At the same time, price competition in the market will intensify, and companies will lower costs to maintain sales, which will further lead to a decline in corporate profits.

The decline in corporate profits will lead to layoffs and production cuts, and even business closures, which has always brought about massive unemployment and industry regression, and even a comprehensive economic depression.

Even for consumers, falling prices are a great thing, but jobs are sluggish and shrinking, so how can there be money to buy things?

The bankruptcy of enterprises and bad debts of banks will also lead to systemic financial risks, that is, the wave of bank failures.

This is also the essential reason for the repeated economic crises in the Blue Star capitalist world - overcapacity.

This set of logic, the education in many colleges, and the relentless and secret propaganda offensive led by Ryan led the "Golden Guards", it can be said that everyone in Asia can basically understand a concept-we need a bigger market.

It also caused the warlike mentality of almost all the people in Yaxia.

And after three years of education and training, the School of Political Affairs has graduated two batches of grassroots civil servants, fully achieving the minimum number of three people in a town, and a group of golem puppets created by Shang Zhongming from the dungeon. A large number of low-level golem puppets barely managed to extend Zhong Ming's will to the town level.

Don't even think about it at the village level, unless Zhong Ming can become a golem puppet at the level of intelligent life one day, or there will be a dozen batches of graduates from the School of Political Affairs, maybe he can do it.

The wizard apprentices of the wizard academy also subtly accepted Zhong Ming's propaganda-the wizard career cannot be without the wizard tower, just like Yaxia cannot live without Chang'an City.

Le Qi, the red-haired witch Huo Lisa, and the prophetic witch Lorena all built their own wizard tower outside Chang'an City.

Among the most talented wizards, three have already advanced to official wizards, and Ford, who has sufficient resources, has already begun to look for the natal spells of the second ring.

Among them, only Ford built his own wizard tower with all the money, and the remaining two newly promoted official wizards borrowed tens of thousands of magic stones and hundreds of magic crystals from the Yasha Wizard Bank. The loan is 200 years, with annual interest. 4%.

In order to have their own wizard tower and practice resources in the future, many wizard apprentices have accepted methods such as engaging in enchanting, special research, completing bounty tasks, etc. to raise training materials.

In particular, the wizards whose specialization includes the earth system can be described as fragrant, one person is worth a construction team, and they can also accept the task of the nobles to cast fertile land spells on their own land. major.

If you are an outstanding wizard who is good at earth magic, then congratulations, you will have the first-class right to choose a mate in the wizard academy.Second only to wizards who are good at potion making and enchanting craft.

Students majoring in civil engineering at Blue Star, if they can learn that the earth wizards in Yashai are treated like this, they will be gratified, right?
Some wizard apprentices who have no resources and no background, for the sake of resources, can now accept it, do some simple enchanting work similar to the assembly line, and contribute to the magic cannon and enchanted bullets.

As for you, can I not build the wizard tower?Yes, but this means you will forfeit your right to choose a mate in wizarding circles.

Under the instructions of an unknown person, the apprentices of the wizard academy were instilled with the excellence of the wizard tower from the moment they entered school. The idea of ​​"you deserve a mate without a wizard tower"...

In this environment, without your own wizard tower, you still want to choose a mate in the wizard circle?dream!

In order to get more orders for enchanted arms, more task rewards, and more resources to build a wizard tower of their dreams, the wizards also have a kind of obsessive enthusiasm for Asshai's external expansion...

The staff of the School of Political Affairs also learned without a teacher, and realized: Without more territories, we will not be able to obtain good official positions after graduation, and sooner or later there will not be enough pits...

Not to mention the army, since the new military nobles were canonized by Gaotai three years ago, everyone has been training hard every day, gearing up for what are you waiting for?Don't you just wait for meritorious deeds on the battlefield, be conferred with meritorious service, and become a noble lord?
Could it be that this ability is only expected to be abandoned after learning it?

The two warrior legions expanded to 20, and the standing army of 270 million, is it just to sweep away the monsters at night from time to time?
Everyone's eyeballs have turned red with envy for those military upstarts who have everything they need, including land, wealth, mansions, and beauties.

The nobles have witnessed with their own eyes that in the past three years, due to inheritance issues, they have been divided and demoted one by one. Their own territories have been developed with the help of machinery and super crops. They are eager to go to the battlefield to fight for promotion and gain more territories. It is necessary to keep the title of the next generation from being downgraded.

You also need to earn more money for the prodigal sons, don't you?

Therefore, the power of the Yaxia government under Zhong Ming's command, from top to bottom, is also looking forward to war.

Lavinia said puzzledly: "Then why don't you do it? Asshai now has enough food, the army is also strong, and there are many new strong men, why don't you do it?"

Zhong Ming put his right hand on Lavinia's shoulder and said, "This is a matter of rules and morality."

"Isn't it easy to find an excuse? You can always find it?" Lavinia said.

"Well, with the aristocratic education you received, it is difficult to see a case of completely annexing a country.

Often it’s just to find a barely passable reason. Everyone makes an appointment to fight.

And now, we want to annex completely, completely annex each country, and at the very least turn them into our puppets, where raw materials and products are dumped.

If there is no good enough reason and a high enough moral support point, Yasha's actions will be more legitimate and honorable.

The resistance will be very high, the price we will pay will be higher, and even cause some unnecessary variables..."

"So, I'm waiting, waiting for them to do it first!"
