A food crisis broke out in the capital. It should be a very troublesome thing for people like Russell and Alantis who are worried about the country and the people, but for Lu Xi, at most, he sighed that the people in the capital are so pitiful. They once again became cannon fodder in the struggle for power. Then, when they met people and things that could not stand, they would help them, and what should they do the rest of the time.

To put it bluntly, as the Minister of Military Affairs, Master Russell's grain price issue in the capital was not something he should worry about.

This is how Alan answered this question.

"There is no way. Many aristocratic MPs have blamed the federal preparation for the preparation for war. The Congress is now quarreling every three days, one small, five days, and one big. Some even have rude requests to disband all the newly reorganized three new legions, saying that if these new recruits who have been consuming the fiscal funds are re-enacted, they will definitely be alleviated once the federal finance goes out and goes. If the deficit problem is solved, the problem of food prices will naturally be self-defeating."

This magic logic... IQ** will really make people crazy! By the way, how do people with this IQ become members of parliament? Federation, are you really okay?

"Well, there are suddenly a hundred thousand strong men in society who have received complete military training and are full of energy but have no jobs. Let me see how they solve it."

"Members of Congress are not responsible for solving problems, they only need to be responsible for cursing and finding fault."

"It's so good! I want this job that can get a big allowance if you just swear and complain about it. I also want it... and I personally think that with my mouth, this job will definitely be better than anyone else."

Hearing this, Alantis's eyes suddenly lit up, and his tone suddenly became a little solemn: "Are you telling it seriously?"

"What?" The other party was so solemn, which scared Lu Xi instead.

"Mr. If you are interested in running for a MP, I believe that teachers will support you with all your strength."

By the way, as long as people with common sense, they will think that I should be telling a joke just now, right? Why are you taking it seriously?

"Uh, brother Alan, should I say, is your humor falling or rising? I just thought of quitting my job and going back to the countryside to get married. Why did you find me a new job in the blink of an eye? The key question is, looking at all the countries in the two worlds of the entire parallel universe, have you ever seen an eighteen-year-old MP?"

"The youngest member of Congress in federal history is 31 years old, and even county councillors have never heard of people under 25 years old. However, federal law does not stipulate the age of members. As long as they are federal citizens who start to pay taxes legally, you can do it. Anyway, you are already the youngest lich retired in league history, and it should not matter if you are the youngest member of Congress in federal history."

Who said it doesn't matter, it's really urgent.

"Haha, Brother Alan, do you know that for homeowners, large-scale group activities such as politics are also among the top five things that we hate the most."

"Haha, brother Lu Xi, politics is also one of my most annoying things. But in this society, if you want to do something that benefits the country and the people, you have to use this annoying thing to have the possibility of sight. This is reality!"

"So, I hate reality! Just let me go and let me go back to the countryside to marry a wife to escape reality. Isn't this possible?"

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. If you have God's gift, it's not a pity to waste your life like this?"

"People who say such words can only earn their living expenses by relying on their own. At least the goddess sister did not ask me to do this or that, and she decided her own life."

The two left the carriage and began to say increasingly endless nonsense while walking through the alley where the carriage was impassable. Along the way, Lu Xi discovered that not only the food store, but almost all the shops were crowded with large numbers of customers who were patting in a long queue, and they were also ordinary citizens dressed in simple clothes.

Snatching goods means that citizens have completely lost trust in the "free trade" market.

In addition, there were a lot more beggars on the street than when they came last time. Looking at these poor people in ragged clothes, numb eyes, and slightly trembling, Lu Xi felt a little uncomfortable after all.

Compared with the long-standing imperial country on the ground, this "democratic and free" federation is actually more like a twilight old man. Even if he is heartless and eager to die, it can be seen that without a change, the death of this country is actually only a matter of time.

However, even in this case, the country is about to fight a war...

Even though the IQ of Russell's opposition MPs had at least one sentence that was correct, the expansion of the army did bring many negative effects. The federal army had only 300,000 troops, but in just one year, 100,000 soldiers joined the sequence. It is said that there are another 100,000 soldiers under training, and it can be added to the official service sequence in only half a year. This scale of military expansion will not only affect the national finance, but also greatly affect the normal social order of the federal government.

But, can there be other ways? As the highest person in charge of federal defense, when Russell heard that the undead on the Henas Peninsula tended to form alliances with the orcs on the Great Wilderness, could he come up with other corresponding measures besides expanding his army?

To put it bluntly, the situation will be at a loss to the point where the current difficulties are due to the unscheming military operations at the time? Now, expanding the army and strengthening national defense will be scolded. If the army is not expanded, wait until the undead orc coalition forces come to the door, and I don’t know how those aristocratic MPs who are whining can express their expressions.

But Lu Xi is sure that even at that time, these congressmen will definitely find other reasons to complain.

Others scold those who do serious things, but those who don’t do things can always stand and speak without aches. The world is always so unfair.

When he thought of this, Lu Xi was full of fascination with the position of parliamentarian, but also full of grief, because he always felt that no matter how insignificant his integrity was, there was still a little left, and no matter how thick-skinned he was, he was not that thick-skinned.

After not seeing each other for a year, Master Russell looked even older. His hair and beard were all white, and he could not even find any other colors. His face was covered with wrinkles, and his cheeks were obviously thin, which made people feel sad. If it weren't for the bright eyes, Lu Xi would even think that he was facing a dying old man who could see the goddess at any time.

Magicians can generally use magic power to mediate their aging, so in this backward medieval society, they can basically live to be ten years old, far exceeding the current average age of 45 humans. The representative of this group is Orusello, who is already eighty-six years old, but at first glance, he thought he was just over fifty years old and his appearance was the kind of handsome uncle who could cause many girls to scream.

Russell Biorusello is in his twenties and has just passed his sixties, but in Lu Xi's eyes, people probably believe that he is about to celebrate his 100th birthday.

Whether it is foreign enemies or domestic enemies, this great magician has exhausted it? The most critical problem is that his most difficult enemies can often be solved by force.

The Federal Military Minister, with white hair and beard, sat behind his desk and looked at Lu Xi who was standing at attention in front of him. His eyes gradually changed from scrutiny to kindness, and then gradually turned into extreme relief.

"Every time I see you, my strength will improve by leaps and bounds than the last time. Maybe in two years, even my great magician, will have to give in to the disadvantage."

The praise and encouragement given by respected elders and teachers is actually the easiest to make people happy. Even though he knows that half of his achievements have to be attributed to the cheater, Lu Xi couldn't help but feel proud. Of course, he pretended to be 13 and said in a low-key manner: "You are so polite, I still have too many immaturities."

"All great men have grown up from immature rookies. Yesterday you will be proud of Orusello, today you will be proud of yourself, tomorrow you will be proud of you," said Orusello.

Such praise is already a bit of a doting meaning. Lu Xi suddenly felt pressured and said, "When that day, the master will definitely be able to serve as chairman. As the head of the federal government, I have entered the door of Tao, wouldn't I be the people under your rule? Maybe I will still have to wave flags and shout for you at that time."

"I don't have such extravagant hope." Russell smiled faintly. This level of polite words was not painful to him: "I am so old. Well, maybe it's not old from the perspective of a magician, but from the perspective of a politician, I am already old. These complicated and entangled national affairs and disgusting struggles for power are not something that is too easy to deal with for an old guy like me...at least it's much harder than a lich."

Lu Xi instinctively felt that the words were not good, so he decided to remain silent for the time being.

"Indeed, this country will only have a dead end if it doesn't change, but with my current intelligence and energy, I can only try to maintain it until it is not completely collapsed when I am still on stage... As for what happened later, I can only leave it to you young people."

"Just leave it to Alan. In addition to him, you should have a disciple. I heard that he is also a very outstanding hero. Even if they are not good, there are so many outstanding young people with thoughts, abilities and qualities in the alliance. So, don't count me in this so-called 'you', right?"

"That's a pity. Alan and Andre are indeed disciples I like very much. Before meeting you, I did think of cultivating them into my successors and passing on my political ideas. But..."

"But?" This is really a subtle and heartbreaking word!

"After meeting you, I always feel like I have a better choice."
