Chapter 948 Nutrition Bars and National Bank (Second Update)

The so-called freedom and democracy can only be established under rational conditions, that is, everyone has rational emotions, long-term vision and sufficient wisdom. This truth was taught to Salomon by the goddess of wisdom. She personally told Salomon how the death of Socrates unfolded in her eyes, and then asked Salomon to read "The Apology of Socrates" and the book "The Republic". 》.

The real reason that made Athena dislike the city named after her was not Socrates' atheism, but that the Athenians spurned Socrates' respect for truth. Before the mission of promoting truth, reason and science set by Salomon is completed, and before the sublimation of the soul is completed, the absolute majority of people do not actually have a long-term vision and sufficient wisdom. In modern society, capitalist democracy has actually become a complete excuse, and all beautiful visions have been distorted into high-sounding and selfish interests.

When the Latvian royal family was still providing money for European and American plutocrats to squeeze the people, the Latvian royal family was an "important partner" and no one could dictate the "choice of the Latvian people." But when the chain of interests is broken, Latovinia will become a place "full of dictators' reign of terror, the air is full of an atmosphere of oppression, and everyone is in danger". If Victor von Doom liberates If Latovinia allows the people there to live a prosperous life, then Latovinia in the eyes of the Western media will become like this. However, this is not the most fatal thing. Mere slander by the media is not a big deal. Salomon had given him a detailed description of what would happen if Latvinia was liberated—a food embargo, a blockade of high-tech industries, social media smear campaigns, CIA infiltration, and the incitement of organized rebellion. Even if the Eternal City displays nuclear weapons and powerful global strike capabilities so that Europe and the United States cannot use a tube of laundry detergent to slander Latvinia for possessing weapons of mass destruction, this Cold War method will continue until the United States itself disintegrates. .

This will be the biggest challenge Latvinia will face after its liberation.

War is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that the Eternal City cannot keep transfusing Latovinia with blood. This will only lead to the Eternal City being dragged down. The currency of the Eternal City will be docked with the currency of Latvinia. Even if the Eternal City can survive, in order to maintain the operation of the entire system, the Latvians will not be able to survive. By then Victor von Du Mu's rule will be even worse than the current Latvian royal family. The only solution is to make the Eternal City and Latvinia complement each other. Just like the Soviet Union's industrial model all over the world, it needs the support of a strong economic entity to avoid problems.

It seems that as the dawn of the liberation of the motherland has risen from the dark horizon, Victor von Doom's mood has become much better, and even his tone has risen a little.

"In this case, it's better to be a little more crazy." He said, "For example, not signing the United Nations nuclear weapons limitation treaty, and assuming that a nuclear bomb may be thrown at any time. The weakness of the bourgeoisie will make them succumb, and Latovini The demi-humans have nothing left to lose.”

"But it can't last forever," Salomon said. "When Latvians get a life of their own, they will find ways to keep what they have. Even if they know that giving something will help them in the future." Life becomes better, and there are only a few people who are wise and willing to give. You can never fight against the philistine mentality. Once you take away those things, they will hang you. We can only change this phenomenon through education, but This is at least ten years away.”

"Our economists have made predictions." Stephanie, as a participant, is free to express her own opinions. "The Eternal City can give a loan to Latovinia in the currency of the Eternal City. The Eternal City will be Tovinia is dominant, and the bank of Latovinia is actually the bank of the Immortal City. We need to find opportunities to promote the currency of the Immortal City to the world, which will be beneficial to future domination."

"Since the Western media will say that I am a dictator, then I better be a dictator. Those rebels who agreed to the CIA's conditions for political asylum do not deserve sympathy. I will exercise the cruelest power of the ruler." "Victor von Doom said with a smile, "Before Latvinia can no longer hold on, you must complete the first stage of the goal, which is to unify mankind and build a world that transcends culture and race. You are You told me so, you said that only this kind of race is qualified to step towards the star sea, and I believe you can do it."

Salomon blinked at these words. Stephanie could tell that he was actually a little moved, even a little happy.

"Very good, then let us solve the problems one by one. Diana Lister, please bring up the product samples from the hydroponic farm. These things are by-products of the biogenetic laboratory and have been passed by the internal personnel of the Immortal City. Taste, now it's our turn. For a long time, Latvians will have to eat these things."

"I think I have to eat this thing for a while first. I have to confirm whether my people can tolerate this kind of thing." Victor von Doom twisted the nutrition bar wrapped in waterproof paper with great interest. , "What does this smell like? I remember that the alchemy potion you gave Modo also smelled like boogers and eyelashes. I don't want to eat some weird things."

"This... tastes like beef!" Lara Croft kept chewing the nutrition bar, squinting her eyes and happily analyzing the emergency military rations distributed by the Eternal City. Under normal circumstances, one nutrition bar can support a soldier's energy needs for a day of high-intensity, and also provide a sense of fullness. Even Jonah, the largest, could only eat one or three bars before being unable to eat any more. However, Lara Croft ate three nutrition bars in a row in front of everyone, and she seemed to want to reach for the fourth one.

The flavoring of all nutrition bars has been reviewed by Salomon. Considering his pursuit of the taste of alchemical potions, the taste of nutrition bars is naturally good. The only disadvantage of this food is that it is too high in calories. If you eat too much, you will get bored easily and become fat easily.

"I ate the strawberry flavor, burp..." Jonah said, "To be honest, I didn't expect the nutrition bar to be so delicious, but it was a bit full."

"That's because you drank water while eating." Compared to the archaeologists who were eating nutrition bars for the first time, Camilla and her team members seemed to take their time and chew slowly. This is not the first time Camilla has eaten nutrition bars. As early as when she led the team to exterminate warlords on the African continent, the emergency military rations distributed by the Eternal City included such nutrition bars, along with self-heating formulas. Tea bag and strainer. From the original texture and taste that was like eating maggots to now with various flavors, the nutrition bar has gone through a lot of changes. Although it tastes good now, Camilla has to endure the feeling of nausea every time she takes a bite.

There is no other reason than that I am tired of eating.

"Remember to take vitamin tablets and quinine medicines. The threat of malaria on the edge of the forest is more terrifying than in the depths of the forest. I don't want anyone to get sick in the next mission." She said, "We have eliminated all those related to malaria. There are drug trafficking organizations related to Holy Trinity, and Holy Trinity will definitely come to us directly next. But the good news is that we have an assault transport boat, and everything becomes quite simple now - Lara Croft looking Clues, we set off in an assault transport boat, and when the Holy Trinity blocks them, we will kill them all."
