Chapter 481 The Rebirth of the Town
As the only race in the world that can safely travel repeatedly through time, the Yithians naturally have ways to avoid being hunted by hounds.
They can ignore the presence of the hound and project their consciousness to any time and place where there are living creatures without being marked by the hound.
The secret is that their bodies, souls, and even their wills have essentially never entered the river of time. Instead, their thoughts travel up and down the river of time in the form of certain waves until they reach the target time point.
Lynch understood as soon as he heard it, that it referred to brain waves, but this meant that the Yisian's method of avoiding hounds only applied to themselves and was not helpful to Lynch.
And their brain waves will find the most suitable target at the target time, build the soul in the other person's brain, control the other person's body, and at the same time package the other person's soul and will and send them back to the Yi people. original body.
This set of actions reminded Lynch of online game account hacking.
Very bad behavior, but it also brought opportunities to Lynch.
The souls that are packed away are not in the form of brainwaves. They will be targeted by hounds. Since part of the stolen bodies will have to be returned in the future, the souls of the owners of the bodies cannot be allowed to pass away casually. Being targeted by hounds, these aliens with the strongest technological level developed some kind of black technology.
Information communicator.
It allows the will to avoid the perception of hounds under the protection of the communicator and travel safely through the river of time. Although there are many restrictions, it can make time travel safer.
Theoretically this is true.
What Lynch has to do is, with the help of Milt, enter the river of time in the form of a missing body or spiritual body, so that he can enjoy the protection of the communicator, and then take the opportunity to slip into the Silver Gate.
Oh, I have to slap that box on the face of the Lord of Tindalos first. Lynch felt a headache just thinking about it.
The only good thing is that the Yisi repeatedly emphasized safety and emphasized that this action would not expose him to attacks by the hounds and the Lord of Tindalos. Now that everyone is willing to believe that the Yithians have broken into the river of time, Lynch no longer doubts whether the other party has malicious intentions. It is too easy to kill him if he has malicious intentions, and it does not matter in this matter.
So, a group of people arrived in Wilson Town in the afternoon. The Yisi man said he wanted to measure some data, and then left alone, leaving only Lynch and others waiting in the town.
Lin Qi had just left for a few days, and obvious changes had already taken place here.
Deadly.
The mayor is dead, and a new mayor has not yet been sent. The entire town has no one in charge, and almost all government functions have come to a standstill.
The banker also died, and the debt disappeared after death. The debt did not need to be repaid, but the problem was that the cattle raised on loan were also given away in a wave. In the end, the townspeople had nothing except the land. .
It is not that easy to start over from scratch. The town’s heritage has been accumulated bit by bit over the past century. If the government steps in to support it with interest-free loans, there may be hope for revival.
The Rhine City did send a few people, but unfortunately it was not the city government that came forward, but a few big bankers.
[Supported by Dunglas Bank, purchased pastures at high prices]
[Sell the burden today, buy land in the city tomorrow]
[Throw away your baggage, go to work in the city, and become a city dweller from now on]
A few bank employees held up tin trumpets and shouted at the top of their lungs in the town. The townspeople watched from a distance with complicated expressions.
Without any source of livelihood, they can only rely on savings. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long, and they will have to sell their land and move the family to the city. This is how most of the poor people in the King's District come.
Lin Qi sighed softly. He had no interest in pretending to be a savior. He had done his best to help the town deal with Xing Zhicai. As for the tragedy that happened here, it was just a small microcosm of the big era.
The wave of the times is like the torrent of time running in the river of time, following a fixed trajectory and running wildly. It may occasionally deviate, but the general direction will never change. People along the way either danced with the waves, or stood in front of the waves and were overturned and torn to pieces.
There is no third possibility.
Lynch can't stop it, and has no interest in stopping it, but he can give the greatest kindness.
Close your eyes and don’t look.
However... "What do you think of this land?"
Lin Qi was stunned and looked at the countess who was here for the first time. The girl was standing on the carriage looking at the open pastures and pastures surrounding the town, looking curious.
Huh?
"A few dozen kilometers away is another peak of Mount Carlos. Although the mineral resources are not as good as those of Best Mountain, they have not been developed yet and are more valuable than Best Mountain, which has been mined for thousands of years. If the family changes its fiefdom to this In the mountains and forests, Elder Nikolai and the others can move easily, and their lives will not change much. They can stay here for thousands of years. They still go to the excavation site from time to time to check on the progress of Zul'Glasar."
The countess's eyes shone with wisdom, and she pointed condescendingly at the surrounding pastures, quite a bit like pointing out the country:
"If we take this opportunity, let the family take over all the land around the town. Here, when the fief is replaced, it is very likely that His Majesty Rudolf will make symbolic compensation, simply give a little more, and connect the mountains and pastures. This way, if I come to Rhine for a temporary stay in the future, I will not have to dig into a cave. , there is no need to shrink in the mansion in the city, it is too small there, why not build a large manor here, enough for three..."
As she was talking, the girl suddenly thought of something, her face turned red, and she looked away.
"What's enough? How can you say half of your words?"
Before Lynch could react, a foot suddenly stretched out from beside him.
Step on it! grind!
"Ouch, what are you doing."
Lin Qi wailed and jumped on the spot for a long time. The assailant glared at him fiercely, raised his head angrily and said: " There has just been a riot here, and it is said that the place where this thing has been wreaking havoc has left no human and animal life for decades.”
"This is all thanks to you." The Countess showed no sympathy at all and ignored the suffering Lynch. She covered her mouth with a folding fan and her voice was particularly brisk. "I have investigated and found that when the Star Color finally matures, it will absorb within the range. All vitality, the land is barren and full of filth, which is what you call infertile for humans and animals. However, you suppressed it before it matured, before it had time to absorb the vitality, and the filth they left in the plants before, It will dissipate soon as it leaves, maybe a few months at most. So, maybe in a few days, this land will only be used as industrial land or construction land, but it is still very valuable now. "
This girl deserves to be from a noble family. She never misses any opportunity to gain profits. Lin Qi felt a little emotional, and she was trying to use some of her family's assets to support her family so early.
Tsk, don’t be like this. Doesn’t it make me look like a weakling? I, Lynch Leviev, am a self-reliant and decent man, and I firmly oppose this kind of behavior that does not seek advancement.
Unknowingly, the lady police officer next to me took a step back: "What are you thinking, why do I smell the smell of criminals and scum from you."
Tsk, this silly girl is so sensitive, even the police are like this. ?
Lin Qi curled his lips and put away those thoughts that smelled like garbage, but still reminded: "It will cost a lot of money to compete with these banks. They will also do it when they see someone competing. The price will be increased, and not all the townspeople will agree.”
"This is a problem, and we need to slowly coordinate with the townspeople."
"I have an idea." Lynch whispered, "We can only take ownership, and they can control the use rights themselves. For the first few days, There will be a free trial for one year, and then we will rent it to them at a suitable price. As long as they do not give up on their own initiative, they can keep renting it. Those who cannot afford the rent can be given a compensation to take back the right to use it, and those who want to give up can also be given a compensation. During the lease period, all the output will be owned by them. This condition is more attractive than what the bank offered them. Even if the price we offer is low, it is tempting enough. With this money, they can directly resume their original breeding. The scale will soon make up for the loss of Star Color."
"Huh? This..." Diana looked at Lynch blankly, and then said with a strange expression after thinking for a while. It’s possible, but it’s too cruel. It’s full of traps.”
"Are you cruel?" Lin Qi spread his hands, "At least you are giving them money now, and you haven't asked them to give you money to buy the right to use it and then pay rent. It is already very kind."
"... "This time the Countess also took a step back and distanced herself from Lynch, "How did you come up with this idea?"
"Who knows, maybe it's a characteristic of a certain place in the mythical age."
[I'm not, I haven't, don't spread rumors, there is no such person in the age of mythology]
"Okay, maybe it's a little bit vicious, but it is indeed the most suitable way to solve the current problem. Do you think it's inappropriate?"
Miss Diana bit her lip and thought for a while, jumped off the carriage and ran to the old housekeeper, muttering for a while, and then ran back with small steps, with a sly smile on her face:
"Don't you know? Nobles are the most vicious creatures in the world, and I happen to be one of them. Mr. Louis will help with the follow-up work, and then we will build a large manor in the town, um... start a What name is good?"
"Just call it Downton Abbey"
"Our last name is not Downton, so let's call it..."
Diana glanced at Lynch with a strange look and quickly turned her head away, hiding her blushing face. As a result, Mr. Leviv didn't know the name of the manor at all.
Unfortunately, happy time is always short-lived. Amidst laughter, the Yi people have returned alone.
“The parameters are all suitable and we are ready to hit the road.”
