Chapter 944 Nutrition Bar and the State Bank
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 principle was taught by the goddess of wisdom. She personally told Salomon how Socrates's death was carried out in her eyes, and then asked Salomon to read "Socrates's Defence" and the book "The Ideal Country".
The real reason why Athena really disliked the city named after her was not Socrates' atheism, but the Athenians despised Socrates's admiration for truth. Before the task of promoting truth, reason and science determined by Salomon, and before completing the sublimation of the soul, the absolute majority did not actually have long-term vision and sufficient wisdom. In modern society, capitalist democracy has actually become a thorough excuse, and all beautiful visions have been distorted into high-sounding and self-interest.
When the Latovian royal family was still providing money for European and American chaebols to squeeze the people, the Latovian royal family was an "important partner". No one could point fingers at the "choice of the people of Latovian". But when the chain of interests broke, Latovia would become a place full of terrorism, the air was filled with an atmosphere of oppression, and everyone was in danger." If Victor von Dum liberated Latovia and allowed the people there to live a prosperous life, then Latovia, which was mentioned by the Western media, would become this
However, this is not the most deadly. Just the slander of the media is not a big deal. Salomon has explained to him in detail the dilemma that will be encountered after the liberation of Latovigna - food embargo, high-tech industry blockade, social media slander, CIA infiltration and incitement of organized rebellion. Even if the Immortal City shows off its nuclear weapons and its powerful global strike capabilities, Europe and the United States cannot use a tube of laundry detergent to slander Latovigna with weapons of mass destruction, this cold war method will continue until the United States itself disintegrates.
This will be the biggest challenge encountered after the liberation of Latovigna.
War is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that the Immortal City cannot always give blood transfusions to Latovigna, which will only lead to the Immortal City being dragged down. The currency of the Immortal City will be connected with the currency of Latovigna. Even if the Immortal City can hold on, the Latovignans will not be able to hold on in order to maintain the operation of the entire system. By then, Victor von Dum's rule will be worse than the current Latovignan royal family. The only solution is to make the Immortal City complement each other. Just like the Soviet Union's industrial model that has been deployed around the world, it requires a powerful economic entity to support it so that problems will not arise.
It seemed that as the dawn of liberation of the motherland had risen from the dark horizon, Victor von Dum's mood improved a lot, even his tone rose with a little.
"If that's the case, it's better to be crazy." He said, "For example, if you don't sign the UN nuclear weapons restriction treaty, you'll be posing as a possibility of throwing nuclear bombs at any time. The weakness of the bourgeoisie will make them surrender, and the Latovians have nothing to lose."
"But this doesn't last forever," Salomon said. "When the Latovians have their own life, they will try every means to keep what they have. Even if they know that giving can make the future life better, the wise and willing to give is the minority. You can never fight the petty-citizen thinking. Once you take those things, they will hang you. We can only change this phenomenon through education, but this will happen at least ten years later."
"Our economists have made predictions." Stephanie, as a participant, can express her own opinions freely. "The Immortal City can lend Latovigna, giving the Immortal City currency. The Immortal City will dominate Latovigna. The banks of Latovigna are actually the banks of the Immortal City. We need to find opportunities to push the Immortal City currency to the world, which is conducive to future domination."
"Since the Western media will say that I am a dictator, then I'd better be a dictator. Those rebels who promised the CIA's conditions to obtain political asylum are not worthy of sympathy. I will practice the cruelest power of the ruler." Victor von Dum said with a smile. "Before Latovigna can't hold on, you must complete the first phase of the goal, which is to unify humanity and build a world that transcends culture and race. That's what you told me, you said that only such races are qualified to move towards the sea of stars, and I believe you can do it."
These words made Salomon blink. Stephanie could see that he was actually a little moved and even a little happy.
"Very good, so let's get things done one by one. Diana Lister, please bring samples of the hydroponic farm. These things are by-products of the Biogenetic Laboratory and have been tasted by the insiders of the Immortal City. Now it's our turn. For a long time, the Latovians had to eat these things to live."
"I think I have to eat this for a while, and I have to confirm whether my people can tolerate this kind of thing." Victor von Dum, interested in twisting the nutrition stick wrapped in waterproof paper, "What does this taste like? I remember that the alchemy potion you gave Modu also had the smell of booze and eyelashes. I don't want to eat something weird."
"This is...beef flavor!" Laura Crawford kept chewing the nutrition sticks, squinted his eyes and happily analyzed the emergency military rations distributed by the Immortal City. Normally, a nutrition stick could support the energy required for a soldier's high intensity in a day, and it also felt full. Even the largest Jonah couldn't eat it after only one or three. However, Laura Crawford ate three nutrition sticks in full view of everyone, and seemed to want to reach out to get the fourth one.
All the seasonings of nutrition bars have been reviewed by Salomon. Given his pursuit of the taste of alchemy potions, the flavor of nutrition bars is naturally good. The only disadvantage of this thing is that it has too high calories, and it is easy to get greasy if you eat too much and it is easy to get fat.
"I had strawberry flavor, burp..." Jonah said, "To be honest, I didn't expect the nutrition bar to be so delicious, it's just a little bit full."
"That's because you drank water when you were eating." Compared to the archaeologists who had eaten nutrition bars for the first time, Camilla and her team members seemed to be steadily and chew slowly. This was not the first time Camilla had eaten nutrition bars. As early as when she led the team to wipe out warlords on the African continent, the emergency military rations distributed by Immortal City were included in the emergency military rations, and there were self-heating tea bags and filters. From the initial taste and taste that seemed to be eating maggots to now have various flavors, the nutrition bars have undergone a lot of changes. Although the taste is pretty good now, Camilla has to endure the nausea feeling every time she eats.
The reason is nothing else, it's just that I'm tired of eating.
