Touching Ian across the river - although it sounds strange, this is what Carlos is thinking now.

"We can learn from this experience."

Giving his final evaluation like this, Carlos said: "Dikas, keep paying attention to the Xiahui Leader and the Chongling Sect. I want to know their every move and every decision - this is a very important event. A social experiment.”

"For so many years, I have been trapped in the imperial capital in the name of the eldest prince. I cannot implement it myself, but I can still do it by learning from the experience of others."

【Follow your will】

On the other side of the mirror, Viscount Ducas replied with respect.

The reason why he followed Prince Carlos was not only because he could guide him on the path to his dream, but also because his attitude that anyone could learn from and his spirit of chasing the forefront of the times were what he longed for but could not imitate.

At this moment, Carlos slowly closed his eyes.

"Another person who dreams of changing the world...I will always feel admiration and always want to praise him."

"It's a pity that there is not one person in ten thousand who can succeed, and even in thousands of years, there is not one person."

All this is not difficult for him to guess. Ian's purpose may be regarded as "novel and incomprehensible" to other nobles on the continent of Terra.

But for the Setar royal family, the descendants of Inaga II, everything Ian did was nothing more than a replica of what the black tyrant wanted to do.

However, the scale is smaller, the intensity is weaker, the limitations are greater, and the progress is slower.

so……

It is also safer, more suitable and more stable.

Easier to succeed.

But it's just 'easier'.

Carlos knew very well what difficulties Ian, a far-sighted person who valued technology, would encounter - the obstacles of humanistic society, the resistance of ancient traditions, the resistance of people's own desires to order, and the difficulties of sublimators in adapting to the new era. Finally, another subversion of the rules of the new era.

Even though Ian is extremely clever in using religion to alleviate many conflicts, if the Ascendants cannot be integrated into the system, then no matter what changes are made, they will eventually come back.

But it doesn't matter.

Prevent? alert?

Carlos almost wanted to laugh at this thought.

Sometimes, there are things that the royal family cannot do and cannot do too quickly. There are too many things that want to be done as quickly as possible but cannot be successful. This is the case with reforms... Since his younger brother supports Ian to do these reforms, then he There is no need to interfere.

It is normal for everyone to learn together.

And he obviously learned faster.

"Ian...even I can't see the end of your dream. It's so interesting. Even my father and brother can't compare with you..."

When he opened his eyes again, Carlos's eyes flashed with bright spiritual radiance that shone like the sun and the moon and was as vast as the ocean.

He calmly said to himself: "Back then, my little brother was just a dream fire that was as small as a mortal, with no ordinary things worth looking forward to. But after returning from walking in the empire, his dream fire was as bright as the scorching sun."

"And after communicating with you, his brilliance is even greater...but I can't even see how bright Menghuo is."

"Interesting, what do you have in common?"

"correct."

Thinking of this, before hanging up the communication, Carlos asked Viscount Ducas one last question: "What other questions did Ian ask you before you left? If you don't understand, you can tell me, but it may not be meant for you." Yes, but to ask my questions through your mouth."

[Yes, Your Highness]

Viscount Ducas thought for a while and replied: [It's a bit sensitive... Baron Yinfeng asked me, he asked... How long can your majesty live? 】

[This question was a bit too sensitive. I didn’t dare to answer it, and he didn’t continue to ask.]

Carlos was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, I understand - it's so interesting, this little guy."

Smiling and shaking his head, Carlos said with emotion: "What he meant by this is actually asking me... why my father is still alive and has not yet reached the end of his life. Mikael and Alegria and I They have already started to compete..."

"That's a really good question. Ian captures the essence of why Imperial politics are so weird today."

Obviously, Carlos had no intention of telling Viscount Dicas the answer to this question here, and the Viscount resigned and hung up the communication very wisely.

The eldest prince sat quietly under the dome of the Sea of ​​Mirrors, overlooking the cities under the imperial capital.

"Actually, anyone who cares can know the answer..."

The man stared at the most elite part of the country and whispered to himself: "For thousands of years, the fifth level of the Setar royal family has never been interrupted. The old emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. Even if his grandfather died, his father quickly ascended the throne. Top seat, recast order."

"The inheritance of the fifth level... is the most powerful force in the world and the most stubborn curse."

What happened in the Imperial Capital did not directly affect the Xiahui Territory, but the large number of businessmen from various countries who came to the territory and established cooperation channels changed the spirit of the entire territory in a short period of time.

If nothing else, the simplest and biggest change is only one thing.

"Sir, our territory is rich!"

Since the funds applied for by Colonel Maris were received, boxes of silver taller and precious alchemical substrates were transported to Xiahui Territory, instantly knocking everyone's heads including Ian's head.

As the actual person in charge of various government affairs in the territory, Scott was transferred from Harrison Port to Xiahui Territory. Scott, who was used to living a hard life, his only thought was, 'I have never fought such a rich war! ’.

What building materials for the new agricultural building, buy!

What kind of professional military demobilization plan, practice!

The alchemy workshop has been fully upgraded, upgraded!

Food subsidies? hair! Wages for hired workers? Full! Overtime pay at work? Give them all!

Without having to worry about anything, you can go all out to arrange all kinds of production work. It is not only the top management of the territory who are happy, but also everyone working in the entire territory.

During the recent period, the atmosphere in the entire Xiahui Territory has been visibly festive. Even the group of craftsmen and technicians in the alchemy workshop who stay away from home all year round are shocked by the abundant funds.

Adlbert also made a special trip to report the progress to Ian - with enough materials and funding, his research would produce results soon, which reassured Ian.

Ian is not only relieved, he is simply comfortable!

"If you have money, everything will be peaceful. If you don't have money, everything will be sad."

Although it can be said that a quarter of the funds sent by the Firestone Group were spent almost instantly, Ian was not worried at all - he had just given some research reports and samples on alchemical plating agents Colonel Maris made the other party overjoyed, and he would get more credit when he returned to hand in the mission. In this way, not only would he be happy with the money, but the colonel would also be rewarded, and the Firestone Group would also know very well that two months later, Ian can definitely give them the answers they want.

Everyone is happy, and that’s Ian’s power.

But, not everything is like this.

"grown ups."

After announcing the good news to Ian, Scott raised a rather realistic question: "The orders from the Bolv Chamber of Commerce that had signed a cooperation agreement with us before must be completed first, but we can really take all the orders from other small chambers of commerce in the future. ? Each of them doesn’t want much, but it adds up to a huge number.”

"Our alchemy workshop has not been fully upgraded, not to mention the number of skilled craftsmen. If this continues, we may not be able to finish production in three shifts around the clock!"

"Don't worry about this. Gu Ying and I have researched a new production process, which can save a lot of time."

Ian had already thought about this. He gave a handwritten production manual to his Iron People deputy and explained to him: "This is a brand new assembly line, and many processes have been streamlined. Everyone’s job is very simple, and as long as they have the skills, the training can be completed within a week.”

“But the most important thing is actually how to conduct formal ‘training’.”

Having said this, Ian patted Scott's shoulder seriously: "This is your most important task in the recent period - to establish a formal training school, hire old workers to teach new workers, and quickly train Create a group of 'new workers' who can adapt to assembly line production."

"They may only have this set of procedures at first, but the school will gradually teach them a full set of production procedures. In the process, they can become more formal alchemy workers and produce more and more complex products for us."

"If they don't learn or practice, then as the industry changes in the alchemy workshop, this group of people will gradually be eliminated...Although it is cruel, it is necessary."

"It's the starting point of a whole training process, Scott, you know what I mean?"

Scott certainly understood that, as the only self-taught person under Ian who could become a talent, he was keenly aware of the focus of Ian's series of training systems.

Use vocational and technical colleges to train a group of workers who master simple skills. After these workers master the skills and make money, continue to train them to master higher skills.

If you want to master more complex crafts, you have to learn writing and other knowledge, such as mathematical inscriptions and some alchemy knowledge... Unless they are willing to take the simplest salary for the rest of their lives, otherwise, they will always have to learn. .

——If you don’t learn, you will be eliminated.

Not only to Scott, Ian also informed this core idea to his core team at the meeting.

"Boss, I have learned a lot! I can now read newspapers and understand some mathematical terms!"

Thinking it was a hint to his youth, he immediately stood up and reported his study progress to Ian.

Ian glanced at him and sighed: "Yeah, you did a great job - but that's not the focus of what I want to say today."

"Qingchao, and Scott, I have prepared your potions."
