Kashena was still a little confused.

"The nobility is the most traditional and conservative group in a country, especially when they are united - so they will be the group that most respects Ursus traditions."

What are the traditions of Ursus?

War and expansion.

As long as they can develop the military, as long as they can start a war, as long as they can continue to expand, they will support whoever can lead them to achieve these goals, and they will be hostile to whoever tries to prevent all this.

Just as they had supported Vladimir before, just as they were now against Fyodor.

"The emperor's attitude, Nicholas' control over the army, and the consistent opposition from the civil service group have made the nobles realize that it is impossible to start a war at the national level - so they are eager to find other ways."

"any solution?"

"Because I wasn't sure they could come up with it, I showed them how to do it - and had Nicola do it herself."

Kashena was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted.

What did Nicholas do? He secretly invaded an electorate of Leithania.

"A local invasion short of a total war?"

"Or you can call it a special military operation if you want."

Qiao Yelan said half-jokingly.

"The nobles can definitely see through Nicholas' tricks, but he is within the rules of the game. After all, he did not expand the scope of the game, and he used his own money, so he did not need to report to the country. Most importantly—"

"Most importantly, they will see that Nicholas will make a fortune from this operation - because you will help Nicholas get the biggest piece of fat, but the nobles can't see it! They can only see that Nicholas secretly sent troops and made a lot of money!"

Black Snake's voice became much louder.

"Then they will want to follow suit, pay for their own troops, and plunder wealth - just like what Vladimir led them to do, except now they are in charge!"

The evil spirit smiled and nodded.

"Do you think the nobles lack that kind of arrogance of "If he can do it, so can I?"

"Isn't that true for everyone?"

"So, if you tell them at this time that you can find a way to start a local war with Da Yan, and the target of the war is Longmen, Da Yan's most prosperous foreign trade port, then what will the nobles' attitude towards you be?"

Kashena smiled from the bottom of her heart.

What will happen?

Of course I will fully support it!

Qiao Yelan looked at the black snake who was lost in thought and poured himself a glass of water.

Even if he has already told the other party the key points, even if he has already performed it step by step in person.

But when Qiao Yelan herself used the same method to treat the black snake, she was still immersed in joy.

Don't let your pawn know that he is a pawn.

Don't let others know that person is your pawn.

Chapter 2 Selling Crutches

When Kane came to see Qiao Yelan again, Kashena carefully observed all the words and expressions of the reporter and did not find anything unusual from before. In addition to her usual respect for Qiao Yelan, she felt extra close to him this time.

"I have decided that after this, I will go back to pursue my doctorate and also accept my father's additional training - if I can inherit my father's position, then I can really do more for the people of Casimir."

The young man has made up his mind.

"My father also supports my choice. He said he is willing to give me more time to finish the things I have on hand. He also said that he hopes I will not have any regrets."

"Congratulations, you can finally be honest with your father - this is a great thing for both you and Mr. Bain."

Qiao Yelan said with a smile.

"It is thanks to you that I was able to sit in on this meeting that I have this opportunity. I have also discussed this with my father, and he said that he would not allow this bill to pass, and he is willing to renegotiate with you on this matter."

Kane said with a look of gratitude on his face.

"Don't worry, I will discuss these matters with Mr. Bain. With the support of the Rose Newspaper Association, I am almost certain to pass the bill to stop the infection."

"With your words, I can certainly rest assured. Then I will go back and mobilize my current friends and informants as much as possible to spread this news as we discussed before."

Watching the other party leave excitedly, Qiao Yelan turned his head slightly.

"There were no problems, and obviously everything went just as you would expect."

[Black Snake did not lie, Kane's performance met your expectations. ]

The doctor nodded slightly, picked up the pen, wrote the last few lines, and put the document into the file bag.

[Online synchronization has been completed. After waiting for the interim results of Casimir, the hard disk copies will be sent to Kazdel and RemBitto at one time. ]

"Okay, that's all. Young people of this age are the most energetic. We just need to wait for this matter to spread, push it secretly, and then wait and see."

Qiao Yelan said happily.

At least he has a few days of vacation to relax. Now he is waiting for the public opinion to explode, for Cyril to be crowned emperor from the military, and for the chain reaction to be settled.

Waiting and hoping—

Because the harvest season is coming soon.

---------------------------------------------------------

Kane's actions were as quick as Qiao Yelan had expected. His style of doing things also meant that his friends were all passionate young people like him. The fact that the news could spread so quickly was obviously inseparable from Bane's indulgence.

At this time, several other people in the Chamber of Commerce also began to realize that something was wrong - how come the news of the meeting that day was leaked in advance?

And how did this public opinion explode so quickly?

This kind of colluded reporting done by young people in a fit of rage cannot withstand scrutiny at all. A casual glance at it will reveal that it was done by the rebellious son of the Bain family.

After a little more in-depth investigation, these smart people found out that after the meeting ended that day, this young man who "hated" his father extremely went back home. When he came out, he did not have any expression of anger or quarrel. Instead, he went directly to the Tower of Babel, and was said to have stayed there for quite some time.

Then after Kane came out from there, public opinion exploded instantly, and there was not a single falsehood in the news. It was Babel Tower that directly said that it would implement the infected slavery bill, which made this large medical company, which has always been known for its infected-friendly image, embarrassed and had to give out a large amount of precious mineral disease inhibitors for free to prove its innocence.

With just one glance, I determined that it was Chun Chun who failed to reach an agreement and then ran away to disgust others.

This made the members of the Chamber of Commerce feel annoyed again - could they try something new?

Yes, your son is rebellious, but can your son create such a big fuss, causing a stir in the whole city in a blink of an eye, and even showing signs of spreading to the surrounding areas?

It was nothing more than training his son's abilities and asking for benefits at the same time. However, when he didn't get what he wanted, he lost face and started to make small moves in the media industry, which he was best at, just to get more benefits and force Babel to submit.

At this time, the chairmen of several other companies have spontaneously begun to send people to secretly support Babel Tower and gather rumors from the outside, while at the same time implicitly conveying a message to Rose Newspapers - it's good enough, it's okay if everyone takes the initiative to give you two pieces, but it would be meaningless if everyone really can't get a piece of the meat.

For Bane, his son's behavior did catch him off guard - but it didn't matter. It was just the last time the kid acted up. I told him to go to school and accept my training after this time. So he let him act like that. After all these years, my son finally obeyed me for once, so of course I had to take care of Kane's feelings.

Moreover, it has almost come to this point that it is worth the price paid by Qiao Yelan. The entire Grand Knight's territory does not support this kind of thing - after all, civilians are also worried that if the abolished slavery is once again relaxed, normal people will be at risk of becoming slaves.

So Bain took the initiative to step on the brakes of public opinion.

In addition, Babel Tower did spend a huge amount of money this time to provide full assistance to the infected group, so the wave of opposition was temporarily suppressed.

Just when everyone in the Chamber of Commerce thought that the tricks had been played out and they could sit down and talk again, a thunderclap from the eastern front blew them all out.

——Casimi’s highest military commander, the current Grand Knight of the Supervisory Council, was forced to resign by his own army and the Knight Family. He was eventually forced to resign and hand over the position of Grand Knight to Casimir’s war hero, Cyril Linguang.

When everyone was worried about the news, Qiao Yelan showed a satisfied expression.

The real trick is coming.

-------------------------------------------------- -----

"clang clang"

Qiao Yelan looked at the businessmen in front of him who had completely lost their previous elegance and patience and were venting their anxiety in an angry manner, and rang the bell in front of him.

“I think that instead of continuing to argue here, we should invite the people from the Supervisory Council to hold a full meeting in the National Council.”

"We haven't even reached a consensus on our internal interests. If we hold a national assembly at this time, won't it only make the arguments worse?"

Bain's voice came from the side, and he still maintained his previous position against Qiao Yelan.

"We can put our internal interests aside for now. For example, regarding the Infected Persons Act, we can discuss it later. Instead, how to deal with our relationship with the new Grand Commander of the Knights is the top priority."

Qiao Yelan's voice became much deeper.

"Don't forget, everyone. This guy's methods can even be called a coup d'état. A Grand Knight Commander who knows how to play political games is more difficult to deal with than a guy who only thinks in a military way."

The scene fell silent, and Qiao Yelan's words went straight to the core of everyone's anxiety right now - what will become of the Supervisory Committee next?

"I think that since we don't know anything, we might as well lower our stance and take the initiative to invite them. After all, the previous Grand Knight Commander did give us too many problems, even to the point of threatening us with force."

"Just think of it as the other party helping us by usurping the throne, and we should return the favor - everyone here, no one really intends to go to war with the military right now, right?"

Of course it's impossible. Which businessman wants to fight a war? Even arms dealers look forward to foreign wars. They can't make much money from a civil war.

"I second the motion. I agree to hold a meeting in the National Council."

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

The last person to speak out was Bain.

"Seconded."

unanimously.

"Then let's set a tone - both sides can make concessions. The Business Federation guarantees military spending and reasonable funding, while the Supervisory Council also has to make political concessions."

Qiao Yelan stated a bottom price and everyone else nodded. They also realized that the former Grand Knight's stress reaction might be because they pushed him too hard, and as a result, after the other party went crazy, it was the Chamber of Commerce that was the first to become at a loss.

Things like war are too unfriendly to business, so it’s better to stay away from it as far as possible.

-------------------------------------------------- ------

"It's a terrible feeling to be in the capital of your own country and have to keep your tail between your legs."

Taking off her disguise mask, Ioletta complained a few words rarely.

"In the future, there will be a chance for you to enter the Great Knight Territory openly, because the people will one day realize that it is the warriors who guard the borders, not the flashy actors in the arena, who deserve respect and admiration."

Qiao Yelan said with a smile.

"It's too harsh to let four silver spear Pegasus live here, but I'm sorry, ever since Sir Cyril took office, the Knight Territory has been a bit nervous."

"We are knights. There are many more simple places on the battlefield than this one. We are not people who seek comfort. As long as we can achieve our goal and prevent the Business Federation from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, and buy enough time for Sir Cyril to secure his position, then everything will be fine."

The adjutant clearly knew what was important and went straight to the point without much small talk.

"The reaction from the Business Federation was better than we expected. Perhaps this silent coup was too secretive. They didn't receive any news before, so now these businessmen are scared. Not to mention taking the initiative, they are planning to urgently restart the National Assembly, hoping that both sides can sit down and haggle."

Qiao Yelan's words made Ioletta's eyes light up. What they were most worried about before was that the former Grand Knight was still unwilling to give up. At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce also gave their full support, supporting a pseudo-military representative to compete with Cyril, causing a split within the military.

Now, it is obvious that the Chamber of Commerce has given up this plan and left the predecessor who has lost his usefulness to fend for himself. At the same time, it is also ready to negotiate with the new Grand Knight.

"This is indeed good news. As long as we can wriggle out the dispute, we can buy some time."

"Yes, and I have already found out that these businessmen do not want to completely break off relations with the military. Their previous aggressiveness was just a gesture. They are already considering taking the initiative to make financial concessions in exchange for temporary peace between the two sides."

This news was even better - Cyril didn't want to engage in open and normalized conflict with the Chamber of Commerce at all. After all, Ursus was always like a sword of Damocles hanging high on his head, and the remaining issues within the military would take a long time to deal with. With internal and external troubles, it was not a good time to turn against the Chamber of Commerce.

"So everything is going for the best?"

Ioletta couldn't believe that the plan went so smoothly.

"Yes, more importantly, I have submitted the Infected People's Proposal before. According to the plan, this proposal was not passed, and I also took the initiative to leak this proposal. The momentum was so great that you should have received the news."

"Yes, Sir Cyril has always felt bad for letting you bear the unwarranted accusation this time."

Qiao Yelan waved his hand.

"I am upright and honest, so I don't care about false reputation. You can scold me, I don't care - in the end, the facts will prove my innocence."

The four Silver Spear Pegasus who knew the inside story saluted Qiao Yelan at the same time. They had an innate sense of affinity for noble people.

"You can keep pushing this issue at the National Assembly and keep attracting the attention of the Chamber of Commerce, so that the Chamber of Commerce can publicly announce that this proposal will not be passed. We have already reached an agreement that this matter needs to be postponed, so we can reach a consensus for the time being. This is also an opportunity for the two sides to start cooperation on the surface."

Ioletta listened attentively, she knew that these were the top secrets of the Chamber of Commerce. With these secrets, the Supervisory Committee would be able to gain more in this negotiation.

The two sides didn't chat for long. After all, everyone's identities were very sensitive, so after Qiao Yelan instructed the other party some things, he left the information and left.

"So, Casimir's problems are over - well, Trillintelme's problems are also solved."

Qiao Yelan's satisfied tone made Kashena a little curious.
