Chapter 527: Full Of Food
The current Wave Country has transformed into a commercial state, earning vast profits every day while relying on importing various foods and products to sustain life.
So, the question arises: what's the point of having wealth when one can't sell their goods or import goods from outside?
When you can't buy what you want with money, how is that different from useless paper?!
The economic society of Wave Country will collapse immediately!
The current good days will also cease to exist instantly!
Forget about building a cross-sea bridge that could take a year, and now people can't wait a month, a week, or even a day!
Who could compensate for such exaggerated losses?
Who will fill the gap for daily necessities?
Is it those rich merchants who were beheaded?
Or is it those who only know how to build bridges?There won't even be a need for someone from our Ie Society to lift a finger, as those blinded by 'rumors' will rush over, tie them up, and deliver them to our Ie Society, requesting to lift the maritime ban to allow the continuation of commercial trade, to make money, and to feast on fine food and delicacies!
This move is truly brilliant!
It hits right at the heart of everyone moved by it.
Once the development of Wave Country stagnates or even regresses to the point of scavenging for food from the ground, those who screamed about building bridges will be seen as eternal sinners in everyone's eyes!
Everyone would want to tear them apart!
Thinking about this, Dazna turned pale and almost fell to the ground.
How cruel!
After this, it's estimated that no one would dare to bring up building a cross-sea bridge again, risking the world's condemnation.
If Society could use this method to threaten everyone once, they could do it a second or third time.
Unless they can magically conjure a cross-sea bridge in one day, what else could they do with all their money and people?
Once the work starts, the entire Ie Society will go on strike; better go back to eating coarse grains!
It's easy to transition from frugality to luxury but difficult the other way around.
If the people of Wave Country, who now struggle to survive, see building the cross-sea bridge as the only way out, Society can't threaten them.
But now everyone is eating and living well; only a madman would fight to the death with Ie Society!
It's all over now!
"Boats...how many boats do we have now?"
"One...just one, have you forgotten? Initially, Ie Society bought all the boats at a high price and even announced a new law prohibiting private boat building. Now that everyone has money and can buy whatever they want, there's no need to risk going out to sea to fish. Naturally, we don't need them anymore."
"This boat is only spared because it was the only thing my father left me, so I never wanted to sell it."
"Right, what do you need the boat for? Didn't you say there's no need to run away anymore?"
An elder close to Dazna's age spoke directly, seemingly unaware of the severity of the situation.
"What a calculation! Did they foresee such a day long ago?"
Dazna also seemed to recall various incomprehensible actions the Ie Society took over the years.
However, it turned out that their inability to understand was only because they were foolish!
Only when the results come out will it prove that society is formidable!
Not leaving them even a single boat, that's a real monopoly!
They can't outplay their opponent within the rules, and they stand even less of a chance outside the rules.
Haven't you seen how miserably those fools died?
Dazna suddenly felt that the people of Wave Country were like animals raised in pens. Although not killed for meat, they don't have real freedom.
But Dazna, too, is lost in the situation and has never considered a question: when they were previously unable to eat or wear warm clothes, they never thought about such noble and luxurious words as freedom.
Surviving and living a better life is everyone's most urgent need!
Human beings are such creatures that are never satisfied.
Once their basic needs are satisfied, they begin to pursue spiritual desires.
She is commonly known as having too much time on their hands with nothing to do!
They don't know how much people outside envy their current life.
So Dazna became angry!
He decided to liberate this country!
Let everyone be able to decide their fate, rather than having their life and death in the hands of others.
But he forgot who gave them this good life they have now.
"Lend me that ancient ship. I need to go out for a while!"
In his youth, Dazna also traveled far and wide and knew that he could only rely on external forces to break the hegemony of the Ihou Society.
He firmly believed that as long as the Ihou Society could be dissolved, the people could be the masters of their homes, and everyone would live better than before!
As for the consequences of failure, it was nothing more than losing this old life. After all, he had lived long enough.
But will things turn out as he thought?
Without the Ihou Society, will the Country of Waves become better?
One's perspective determines one's height.
Dazna saw only the most ideal situation without the Ihou Society but failed to see what the Ihou Society did to ensure the stability of the Country of Waves, and even more, he failed to see how many corpses of desperados aiming for this fatty piece were thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
So, everything has two sides; although the Ihou Society monopolized the maritime transportation of the Country of Waves, it also provided basic protection, stabilized prices, and even spent a great deal of money every year to construct the country.
And these hidden, inconspicuous things are the foundation of why the Country of Waves has developed so fast and well.
It's just a pity that not many people can see this layer.
Dazna, on the other hand, sees himself as a hero!
Yes, a hero.
Ignoring everyone's advice, Dazna left his precious grandson and the grandson's stepfather, tricked his old buddy for that antique ship, and quietly set out to sea alone that night.
He didn't know what awaited him, but he firmly believed he was on the right path.
He also firmly believed that the Ihou Society, this dictator (censored), would crumble when he returned. Then, the Country of Waves would absorb the nutrients after the collapse of the Ihou Society, creating a better environment where every person could live a happy and free life!
And he would become the people's hero, constructing a magnificent sea-crossing bridge and then engraving his name on it, leaving a legacy for future generations to admire!
As for whether that kind of life is what people want, he did not doubt it!
Who would refuse the temptation of 'freedom'?
I, Dazna, am a great revolutionary!
