Cosma Empire

The Capet family, including Fatima and more veteran nobles in the north, will have a group of "think tank" characters in the family. These characters are not given any formal titles, but some people call them "elders" . That's why there is such a saying as the elders' group. In fact, all nobles will not admit that there is such an organization in their family, and there is no such thing as anything that can influence or threaten the dominance of the patriarch.

These people can be called the elders in the family. They do have the obligation to provide their own wisdom, but it is impossible to form a group with rules and hierarchies.

This time, it was Solo's seventh uncle who proposed to cooperate with the Fatima family. He believed that the "Odis effect" could be replicated and had a high success rate. People only saw the rapid rise of Odis City and the economic effects brought about by Odis City, subconsciously ignoring the fact that Odis City did not have any pillar industries at all. Whether it is a casino or other entertainment projects, there is no technical threshold.

There is no technical threshold, and this set can be copied in the newly established special zone city. In addition, the people in the city hall can be replaced by people they support or even their people. The huge profits brought are enough to make several families unable to survive. However, simple and crude copying also has some predictability problems.

Innovation issues, authority issues, policy issues.

Needless to say about innovation, Odis City was planned by Du Lin alone, and it can be predicted that some projects in Odis City will continue to be strengthened and updated before Du Lin leaves Odis City. They don't have talents in this area, they need to be introduced and cultivated, and it takes time. Maybe they can surpass Du Lin, and maybe they will never find this person who can surpass Du Lin. This means that they can only run behind Durin's ass in the new special zone, so they only have two choices.

Either find a better city designer than Durin, or get Durin out of Odis.

The second question is the issue of authority. The ruler of a city is of course the mayor in the city hall, but the city they want should not be determined by an official person to decide what they operate and what they do not operate. They should pay monthly How much money and what to do. They need someone who can stand up as a leader against City Hall. If you can turn the mayor into your own person, then it doesn't matter, but no one can guarantee that you will be able to influence Magus's decision-making and let him leave the important position to them.

The last question, what if Magus and the top leaders of the new party want to experiment with more new things in the new special zone and refuse to directly copy the city of Otis? It is not impossible to guess that the city of Otis has been a "experimental field" for Magus from the very beginning, where he let Durin try a lot of things, such as prohibiting the existence of any monopoly trading and banning workers' unions Excessive interference in the planning of the city by the city hall and many other things.

At present, the people selected by Magus are very good, and Du Lin is very capable and courageous.

What if the Mags and the others have new ideas, and the new special zone is not allowed to operate casinos or those special commodities?

So this requires a leader to stand up and talk to Magus and the New Party, and the Fatima family is obviously the most suitable partner. The saint holding the flame has not yet retreated to the second line. Her influence among the nobles is definitely one of the best. In addition, Magus is also one of the great nobles of the Northland and has a deep friendship with the Fatima family. The female lord will be able to persuade Magus to sway him.

Based on these reasons, the old Capet Patriarch chose to let Solo come to make preliminary contact. If the two parties do not have too big differences, they can start a comprehensive cooperation.

Solo and Felicia talked a lot, almost all he was talking and Felicia was listening. He didn't think of asking Ernes to get him some water until he said he was a little thirsty, "So, I only represent myself and the owner,

It is very beneficial to both of us to request cooperation from you and Her Excellency Fatima. The profits and effects of Odis City will bring about some changes in the lifeless North, and as much as I don't want to admit it, we are already behind the South in some ways. Now, this is a very good opportunity for us to return to the leading position in some fields. Please be sure to convey my opinion to Her Excellency Fatima. "

Your Excellency the Holy Maiden is actually also in this manor. This manor occupies the largest area in the entire empire. Apart from the royal buildings, this manor is the largest. There are a total of nine buildings in front and back, covering a vast area, as huge as the palace of the royal family!

Her Excellency Fatima lived in the last, most luxurious building, which was also the residence of Prince Komoz.

But Solo is not qualified to meet Fatima. His status is too humble. Although he is also a member of the nobles in the Northland, he has not been confirmed as the heir of the next generation of the Capet family. Therefore, he does not even have the right to meet the Duke, unless he can represent the entire Capet family and has a token given to him by the head of the Capet family.

The social interaction of the nobles is so complicated, and the strict class system and rules are the most powerful way for the nobles to consolidate their dominance.

Felicia nodded, "I understand. I will convey your and Lord Capet's thoughts to grandma, and grandma will be very happy. By the way, Mr. Solo, have you ever been to Odis city yourself?"

Even though Solo was reluctant, he nodded without changing his expression. Felicia asked again: "Is it fun there? Have you chatted with Du Lin? What kind of person do you think he is?"

Facing Felicia's curiosity, Solo could only praise Du Lin against his will, "He is a very outstanding young man, at least among the young people I have met, there are only very few people as noble as you Can surpass him, he can be regarded as the pinnacle of the common people!"

"As for Odis City... I went to work last time, so I didn't stop there, but I heard that there are many interesting things there."

Praising one's opponent can also elevate oneself. Solo is very clear about this. If Du Lin is a waste, isn't he even worse than a waste after losing to a waste? If Du Lin is the best one in the empire, then he may be the second. In this way, it is actually nothing to praise Du Lin.

Then Solo got up and left. The purpose of his trip has been completed. He tried his best to analyze the advantages and benefits brought about by the cooperation between the Capet family and the Fatima family. He tried his best. As for the final choice of the Holy Maiden , is not something he can control.

After Solo left, Felicia went back to the last house to see Her Majesty the Holy Maiden, who sat on a chair made of steel in military uniform as before, without any bedding, and the whole chair was black. . She also has platinum-blonde hair and wears an iron crown, which is an honor bestowed upon her by the emperor for her outstanding contribution to guarding the northern border of the empire.

When Felicia entered, Your Excellency the Holy Maiden still had her eyes closed. After she came in, Your Excellency the Holy Maiden slowly opened her eyes. The whole room seemed to be swept by the cold light of a sharp long sword. Several servants bowed their heads. Head, the skin exposed to the air has already been startled with a layer of goosebumps.

Your Excellency has suppressed seven rebellions in her life. There is an organization called Scarlet Dawn that keeps assassinating nobles in the northern border, shouting the slogan "Blood draws the curtain of dawn, fight for freedom" and constantly incites slaves and untouchables to riot Rebellion, every time a noble is assassinated, there must be a rebellion in a place where the nobles lead. The most serious one was that two marquises were assassinated one after another, the whole county was in chaos, and more than 30,000 people participated in the rebellion.

They robbed and killed nobles, plundered the wealth of merchants, then armed themselves with the looted weapons and attempted to expand outward. But no matter how powerful these rebellions were, they were eventually suppressed by Her Majesty the Holy Maiden, a duchess in military uniform on a horse, a duchess who kept killing in order to stabilize the imperial regime.

A pastor once saw her and fell to the ground in fright. He told people that the eyes of the Holy Maiden of Fatima hide hell, and he saw countless souls howling in the hell in her eyes!

"What's the matter with the kid from the Capet family?" With her identity, status and seniority, calling Solo a kid can be said to be a face to the other party, at least she knows and remembers this person.

Felicia walked up to Her Majesty the Holy Maiden with her skirt in her hand, and conveyed what Solo said verbatim. Her Majesty the Holy Maiden sneered and closed her eyes.

"It's a little exaggerated for him to say so nicely. How about you go to Odis City to see the changes in Odis City with your own eyes, and then come back and tell me what you saw!" She waved her hand, "Go !"

After saluting, Felicia retreated to the door and turned to leave the room. The moment she left the room, she breathed a sigh of relief. Although her grandmother was getting older, the momentum on her body did not weaken at all, and instead became more daunting. !

It is also a good thing to be able to go out for a while. Felicia has actually been persuaded by Solo. The city of Otis is not far from the north. It is located in the heart of the empire, 171 kilometers south of the imperial capital. With a slight shake of the hand when making the map, the city of Odis can be included in the scope of the north, which means that many things in the city of Odis are also feasible in the north.

The huge difference between the north and the south has made some people's efforts unsuccessful in the end. It is a big trouble that the economy and culture from the south are difficult to integrate into the local area. Perhaps we can find some new things from the city of Otis.
