Original God, life in red Teyvat from scratch

Without desire, one is strong.

At this time, only Duke Carter remained unmoved after hearing Villette's decision.

Still calmly raised the cup to taste the black tea.

As for the others, after a brief moment of stagnation, they exploded directly.

"Then Lord Villette, your decision is totally unfounded!"

"Indeed, Fontaine has been a kingdom of machinery since ancient times, and is famous in the continent of Teyvat for its clockwork mechanisms and autonomous machines. How can we abolish their use? We can't compromise just because the mobs outside are dissatisfied!"

"That's right. If the machinery is banned, the entire Fontaine will suffer in the end. Not only should it not be banned, on the contrary, it should be vigorously promoted."

They are not fools!

It was obvious that Villette was here to target the robots.

Although they didn't know which genius had leaked this matter and publicized it as if he was afraid that others would not know about it, but now that things have developed to this point, especially since Villette has called them here, they can no longer just stand by and watch.

There has to be a solution, and if things go as expected, it will limit the use of robots.

This is not in their interest.

They also tried their best to fight for themselves.

As the saying goes, the people of Fontaine have always been moderate in their temperament. For example, if you say you want to open the window, then people may not agree, but if you say you want to lift the roof, then people will agree to open the window.

Now, Navilette was obviously claiming that he was just going to lift the roof off.

What they have to do is to insist on not opening the window, which is not realistic, so the only thing left is to try to make the window smaller.

Looking at the excited nobles, Villette signaled for people to be quiet.

This is followed by a series of discussions by Navellette from the perspective of reality.

The two sides launched a series of cordial and friendly communications from the afternoon until midnight, fully exchanging views and enhancing mutual understanding. Both sides agreed that the talks were very beneficial, but both had reservations about each other's proposals.

Listening to the increasingly noisy sounds outside Momang Palace, Villette knew that it had to be resolved as soon as possible.

From the perspective of the people protesting outside Momang Palace, Sedna had just sent away those Inazuma people and brought in these nobles from the upper class of Fontaine society not long ago.

They talked in Momang Palace until midnight.

Compared with the previous speed of "results in ten minutes", this progress will undoubtedly undermine people's confidence.

He quietly watched the nobleman in front of him - Count Martin finish his long speech.

"Mr. Martin." That Villette did not refute Martin's words.

"what?"

"Do you remember what you did between 15:18 and : on the rd afternoon?"

"At 15: three days ago..."

Martin quickly closed his mouth, his pupils trembling violently, and his eyes were full of fear as he looked at Villette.

Oh no, the truth is revealed!

How did this person know?

Is there a traitor?

Chapter 159 I dare not have it, I dare not have it

"Before we proceed to the next step, I have to remind you: if there is an accusation, then there must be a trial."

Violet's eyes swept across the faces of each of them.

Most people have realized something and are trying their best to hide the fear in their eyes and appear relaxed and indifferent.

Only Duke Carter looked calm and at ease.

The people around him were unconcealedly surprised, but they also showed no signs of fear.

Don’t do bad things, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.

Villette's plan is to take advantage of the information gap.

Although he could not collect real evidence, he could get most of the information from the water.

Although it is not 100% comprehensive, it is more than enough considering the mess of things done by these nobles and the extremely strong resentment of the victims.

But the people in front of him didn't know that he could get information from the water.

They would only think that Navillatte had found something on them, and that Navillatte already had sufficient evidence in his hands, but for some purpose, he did not try them.

And now, "where there is an accusation, there must be a trial."

It can also be understood as: "If there is no charge, then there can be no trial."

Once these words were uttered, it was a naked threat.

——If you don't agree to my conditions, then I will accuse you, and with what I have, you can do what you want.

If you don't want to be accused, just agree to the conditions honestly.

They dare not gamble.

At least Martin didn't dare.

Martin took out his handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Just as he was about to answer, he saw that Villette turned his gaze to the other side again.

"Ms. Theodore, Ms. Pardo, do you remember the afternoon tea party a week ago?"

People's eyes turned to the two young and elegant women at the scene.

At this moment, they stood up, their faces turned pale and their eyes were evasive.

Theodore raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at Villette, and said with trembling lips: "You...you...Mr. Supreme Judge, Lord Villette, you..."

Padua directly reached out and covered her mouth.

"It's nothing, Master Villette. She is feeling a little unwell. It's an old problem."

After saying this, Paddo did not forget to bow slightly to apologize to Villette.

"Since you are unwell, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible." Villette's tone was still as calm as water, and his facial expression remained unchanged, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking or intending at this moment.

"Please rest assured, I will find the best doctor in all of Fontaine... no, in all of Teyvat for Theodore."

Paddo simply grabbed Theodore and pushed her onto the sofa.

Navilette continued to turn his gaze to the next place.

"besides……"

"No need to say more, Lord Villette. In my factories and chambers of commerce, no human employees will be laid off or have their salaries reduced because of machines, and recruitment will remain the same. You know, I have always been a role model for the nobles in Fontaine."

This time people learned to answer questions quickly.

Twice in a row, looking at the expressions and postures of these three people, it was clear that there must be a problem, and Villette was not making an attack without a purpose.

Although I don't know how Villette did it, my own bottom is not clean either. I have been targeted. I should be proactive and keep some dignity so as not to let people imagine too much.

Sure enough, Vilette nodded, didn't say much, and looked away.

"me too."

This time, before Villette could even open her mouth, she had already gotten the answer she wanted.

Villette looked around and received a round of “Me too” responses. Even Martin and the other three who had been there at the beginning rushed to agree.

This time I failed.

I don’t know how Villette knows so much.

There must be a spy among them from Villette!

I must check it carefully when I get back!

It’s just… although he knew clearly what they had done, he didn’t directly bring charges and try them, but instead used them to “make a deal” with them. It seems that this Supreme Judge is not so fair and just.

On the one hand, they were heartbroken by the losses caused by compromise, and on the other hand, the nobles, who thought they had learned some important inside information, could not help but start to plan their own little plans.

Among the people present, Duke Carter and a few others were the only ones who had not expressed their opinions.

Villette looked at Duke Carter, who was sipping his tea with a calm expression. The others in the office also turned their heads away when they saw Villette's gaze.

For Villette, these people are real trouble.

That Villette stared at Duke Carter and didn't speak for a moment.

If they refused, he really didn't know how to deal with it.

While Villette was still organizing his words, unexpectedly, Duke Carter slowly put down the tea in his hand and turned to look at Villette.

"Same for us."

"!"

The people present were quite surprised.

The other nobles in the office had different thoughts.

"Good old Duke Carter? It seems that he is not so clean after all."

If Carter had not been caught like them, why would Carter agree to such conditions?

It seems that Carter's usual image of a good guy and a clean-cut philanthropist is probably packaged just like theirs.

They guessed so in their hearts.

Carter could tell what they were thinking just by the look in their eyes, but he didn't bother to pay attention.

Dirty people see everything as dirty.

To use the words of Liyue next door, this is looking down on others.

Why should I care about the opinions of stray dogs on the roadside?

And Villette, while surprised that Duke Carter voluntarily gave up his rights, also felt relieved.

This is a step that everyone can take.

"Thank you."

That Villette nodded to Duke Carter to express his gratitude.

"In this way, the problem has been solved." He looked at the Fontaine nobles surrounding him.

"Next, I will enact new laws to limit the use of robots, set the ratio of robots to human employees, and guarantee the salary and benefits of human employees. Do you have any opinions?"

"No no."

The nobles shook their heads hastily.

I dare not have it. I dare not have it.

"You don't have to worry too much. Although the use of robots is restricted, Fontaine's electrical revolution is maturing. Relying on exporting electrical mechanical creations to other countries, it can also generate considerable income. Mo Mang Palace will arrange the relevant matters as soon as possible. At the same time, regarding import and export taxes, everyone here can get certain exemptions."

This could be considered a compensatory measure, but the nobles were obviously not interested in it. They just agreed to it after a few perfunctory verbal remarks.

They could have made more money using robots.

This is like taking away their ham, throwing down a piece of moldy bread, and then claiming it is a gift.

It's just that I have to compromise temporarily now.

No, I have to find a way to make the money back...

They began to use their brains.

Chapter 160 What to choose

Generally speaking, negotiations involving such major interests would take at least a year or two, let alone ten days or half a month.

It is simply impossible to negotiate a result in just a dozen hours.

It's just that the situation was urgent and escalated quickly, so Villette had to use some means.
