Chapter 78 "Kidnapping" Victor
"Li Ke, we need a lot of talents now. Zaun is full of waste. We must develop industrially. In the past, we would have been choked by Piltover and suppressed and lagged behind because our productivity could not keep up. .”
Hilko spread his hair and sat side by side with Li Ke and Fandel at the bar. He was looking sideways at Li Ke, who was sitting in the middle, and continued in a deep voice:
"We can no longer rely on Piltover for everything like before. Even snacks and candies have to be "imported" from Piltover." Silko stretched out his hand and said: "For this, industry is necessary Developed.”
"I understand this, but Hilko, you should be responsible for this. I'm not afraid of your jokes. I know nothing about science or industrial development." Li Ke nodded, and then said to Hilke Coe said.
Li Ke won't pretend to be a wolf with a big tail. If he doesn't understand, he just doesn't understand. What he has to do is to control the general direction. As for all aspects of things, he can just leave them to capable people.
"I know, I will deal with it." Hilko nodded, but he had a rare headache. He stretched out his hand to rub his black hair and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that one day I would regret what I did before. ”
"Why, things have become difficult and give you a headache?" Fandel said in a funny voice on the other side of Li Ke. He picked up the wine and drank it.
Although he has lost his sense of taste, after drinking too much wine, Fandel will have a dazed feeling. This feeling will make Fandel enjoy it very much. There is a feeling that he is still alive and still human?
rather than a monster.
He squinted and said: "Every period has its own plan. You told me this, Hilko. If it were the dark alley under my leadership, there might be many talents now, and they would not be fooled by you." Rush to settle in Piltover, but the problem is, if it were Zaun under my leadership, we wouldn’t be able to get any money at all now.”
"The unity of the poor is worthy of praise, but it is not worthy of praise." Fander muttered.
Li Ke sat in the middle, thought for a while, and said: "Let the Alchemy Barons disperse. From tomorrow on, there will no longer be Alchemy Barons in Zaun. Their people will still be available to them, but they must be replaced." Let them lead people to work in industry and give back to Zaun, otherwise they will hang themselves on the street lamps one by one. ”
"Before, I was worried that they would make trouble and cause trouble, but under the guidance of the Lianhua Gang, the Zaun people are now united enough, and people are no longer afraid of them. If they are not willing, then let Fandel Go talk to them." Li Ke reached out, patted Fandel on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Then they will definitely be willing."
"Do I find a job now?" Fandel joked.
Hilko nodded, hummed, and then said: "Okay, I will push for this, let's start with Rini. She shouldn't refuse. After all, she has children and is a weak person. The best to persuade.”
"Before, you definitely wouldn't have said persuasion, but words like control, control, and threats." Fandel raised his eyebrows.
Hilko has really changed.
His behavior and personality have changed a lot.
"Trade needs reform, and alcohol smuggling needs to change its direction."
"How about selling it to Demacia?"
"You can give it a try. That place is not as bright as it sounds, and there is still a lot of corruption."
"The problem of mineral resources and weapons is easy to solve. Without Pi Lao's exploitation, we can be self-sufficient."
"Electricity is a problem. Many of our areas still rely on Piltover's water supply for power supply. It will cost a lot of money to change it. Alas."
"There is also the problem of schools. After the gang activities decrease, there will be a lot of orphans on the streets. Gather them and open a school. This will cost a lot of money."
Hilko lowered his head, ruffled his hair with one hand, and wrote with a pen in the other hand. From time to time, a lot of things were densely written on it.
Li Ke was standing by to help give some advice, and the two of them discussed it.
Fandel looked at this scene with memories in his eyes.
The three of them were like this back then. He was in charge of fighting, Hilko was in charge of planning and development, and she was in charge of logistics and manufacturing weapons.
Shaking his head, Fander came back to his senses.
And what is written on the paper are all the problems that Zuan will face in the future——
Autonomy is not difficult for Zaun now. With Li Ke and Fandel here, Zaun's force has completely suppressed Piltover. What is difficult is how Zaun will develop after gaining autonomy.
The biggest problem facing a city-state is not how the city-state was born, but how to proceed after its birth.
"After the fight, let's add a few more clauses to the agreement with Piltover and ask them for money. We are really too poor."
"How about going to the city to rob?" Fandel thought for a while and said.
What the Zaun people are best at is going to the city to make money. Wei has done this before, and Fander, as an old father, has naturally done it too.
Let's go to the city to make money!
This is what Fandel often said in the past.
Silko glanced at Fandel and shook his head.
"After autonomy, Zaun will be a real city-state. The leaders will take the lead in going up to the city to make money." Silko refrained from talking about stealing and robbing, and continued: "How will other places look at us?" Learn to recognize who you are at different times, Fander ”
Fandel nodded, "I'm just talking casually."
"Finally, we need an academic scientist who understands the situation in Zaun and has life experience in Zaun and knowledge of Piltover." Silko put down his pen and felt that this condition was too disturbing.
Zaun has no shortage of powerful scientists. Jinx, Ike, and even Marson can pick up a wrench and make things.
But the problem is that when building a city, you can't really follow the wild approach. Although Zaun has always used this approach in the past, if you continue to follow this approach when establishing a city-state, you will have to do it every three days. Equipment maintenance, what is this called?
Yeluzi is powerful and can create miracles, but is not precise enough. Academicism is sophisticated, but it follows the rules and requires a lot of resources.
Therefore, academic knowledge is important.
Heimerdinger is an outstanding scientist with comprehensive knowledge and rich experience, but the problem is that his time in Zaun is too short!
The suggestions he made were often from the perspective of Piltover. This was not good. The current economic gap between Zaun and Piltover was like the gap between heaven and earth. The gap was too deep to be filled.
Jinx and Ike are very young, and they can't contribute much in "industrial construction." They can make weapons and special technological products, but you want them to use their own wisdom to build Zaun?
Hmm. Hilko remembers that the theory of air purification devices was proposed by Li Ke, who didn’t understand science in front of him?
That will take time. Jinx and Ike need to change their past ways of thinking and start learning again. This will take a long time, and Hilko doesn’t want Jinx to change, because her fantastic ideas can create new things for Zaun. A miracle.
Zaun wants to change, but the core still relies on people like Jinx.
So. Is there a scientist who can be as powerful as Zaun, but also as careful as Piltover?
Damn it, even if there was such a person, it would be impossible for him to come to Zuan, right? !
There are various reasons why powerful scientists like Heimerdinger and Singed would come to Zaun. Otherwise, how would the scientists be willing to come to Zaun?
Poverty, chaos, and suffering!
Hilko, who had a headache thinking about it, didn't notice at all that Li Ke's expression next to him gradually became weird.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
Not
Will Hilko set some conditions for me to stay here?
Just mention the name directly!
With life experience in Zaun and rich scientific ideas and knowledge in Piltover, there really is one such person in both cities!
"Cough!" Li Ke coughed.
Hilko looked up at him.
"I actually know one of the people you mentioned."
"Oh?" Hilko's eyes lit up.
"His name is Victor. It's interesting to say that he is also a Zaun, and he is also Singed's apprentice?"
"I never heard Singed say that."
"Are you and him someone you can sit and talk with?" Li Ke was speechless.
Hilko thought about it and realized that it was the same.
Li Ke continued: "He meets all the conditions you mentioned, and more. He is a genius, a super genius no less powerful than Jace. Hex Technology was created by him and Jace together."< br>
"I've never heard of this." Hilko thought he knew Piltover very well.
Li Ke said: "How could the Picheng people give the fame and fortune of such a thing to a Zaan person?"
"That's right."
Hilko nodded, and then said: "Then, go find him and invite him back."
After hearing this, Fandel said aloud: "That's nice to say. If you don't let me rob the money, you will rob the people yourself?"
"Invitation, Fander, I just invited him to come to Zaun as a guest." Silko said speechlessly, "He is also from Zaun. How can we call him robbing someone if we ask him to come back and have a look?"
Li Ke heard it funny.
Invitation.
It sounds nice, but in reality, it's a kidnapping, right?
"Then Li Ke, please go and invite this Mr. Victor in person." Hilko looked at Li Ke.
Li Ke raised his cup and nodded: "I haven't been to Shangcheng yet."
"Come on, you two, after drinking this glass of wine, we should leave."
Silko nodded and said softly: "For Zaun."
Fandel picked up the cup with his paws, and a sentence popped into his mind subconsciously: "Also, the river bed and the water bubbles."
He was really moved by the scene, it was really subconscious.
Hilko paused, looked past Li Ke and looked at Fandel, raised his cup with a smile and said: "River bed and bubbles."
"?"
"What are you talking about? I can't understand."
"It's just that you don't understand." Fandel drank the wine and laughed.
