Chapter 975: Lawless Land
" They actually negotiated peace with Rose City? How is this possible?"
Miranda looked at the newspaper in her hand in disbelief. This was the world's number one superpower, known as the most powerful rogue country and the beacon country, which had wantonly attacked bandits in dozens of countries in the world, and it actually asked for peace with a group of thugs who occupied the city. It was as absurd as a cat saying to a flea, "We won't fight anymore and will live in peace in the future."
"What's the big deal? For them, fighting a war is just a way to make money. If there is any benefit, they will desperately create an excuse for war, mobilize public opinion, and incite the public to declare war on others. In order to make money from the war, they can even fight the enemy while doing business."
"As for why they seek peace, it's simply because there is no benefit. A Rose City is nothing to them. Giving it the right to govern itself can even drive away the criminals, gangs, and those freedom-crazed people from other cities in the state, making it easier for them to rule other cities. This is a relatively favorable outcome for them."
Zhang Tuohai explained.
"But didn't those people kill a lot of rich people in Rose City? Don't they feel sad for the loss of a rabbit?"
Miranda was puzzled.
“Are the rich people in Rose City also considered rich to them?”
Zhang Tuohai laughed: "Real rich people are also divided into different levels. The people of Rose City may be considered wealthy in our eyes, but they are nothing in the whole country or even the whole world. In the eyes of the real top rich people, they are not even the same kind."
“Even if a truly top-tier billionaire dies, who will be sad? Once dead, he is worthless. They will be wiping tears at his funeral one moment, and the next second they will eat up all the market share he left behind. The pie is so small, if some people eat more, others will eat less. Who doesn’t want to have an extra bite?”
Zhang Tuohai sneered and said, "Don't be fooled by the fact that they usually seem to stand together and act like a united front. When it comes to distributing benefits, they all hope that the other party will die quickly so that they can take the cake alone."
"Is it so cruel?"
This was difficult for Miranda, who had grown up in a large family, to accept.
"This is the world of capital. Profits are everything, and there is no humanity at all."
Zhang Tuohai said with emotion.
Even though he and Miranda talked very logically, he himself sometimes couldn't understand why these capitalists were so greedy in the end. What was the point of gathering all the money in the world in his own arms?
He doesn't understand, but fortunately, he doesn't need to understand. He still needs to use the bitter and devouring nature of capital to achieve his own goals.
For example, his relationship with the military-industrial complex.
From a national perspective, they should normally be enemies, but their business is doing well, and they even teamed up to wipe out a commando brigade from the Lighthouse State of Saxe.
Zhang Tuohai gained benefits, the military-industrial complex obtained new orders, and both parties were happy.
"By the way, is there any reaction from Rose City?"
"According to the report from the liaison officer who stayed there, the leader of the people, Pedro, hopes to negotiate peace. After all, their goal is to protect their homeland. However, there is a conflict with the local warlord Sanders over who should be responsible for city management. The two sides have drawn a boundary in Rose City and are on the verge of a conflict. A conflict could break out at any time."
Miranda said.
"Haha, they're already fighting among themselves before they even get the fruit? You really are a bunch of rabble."
Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but shook his head when he heard that.
However, he still needs this group of rabble as a benchmark to encourage more people of the beacon of freedom to seek independent freedom.
Promote this model and let every city in the Lighthouse Country become a Rose City.
Only when the Lighthouse Country is unable to take care of itself, do their unfortunate neighbors have the opportunity to develop and even regain the territories that were previously seized.
"So what should we do? Send people to suppress them?" Miranda asked.
"No, tell them that no one is allowed to fire at the other without my permission, otherwise I will cut off their food, water and weapons. I don't think they want to fight with each other with sticks, right? If necessary, those drones will become their enemies."
Zhang Tuohai said coldly.
"I'll notify them right away, but I don't think it will last for a few months. After all, it's within the territory of the Lighthouse Country, and they can still find other sources of goods."
Miranda reminded from the side.
"It doesn't matter. A few months will be enough. What I need is the demonstration of Rose City. I want to promote this model. What does Rose City look like in a few months have to do with me?"
Zhang Tuohai sneered and said, "It doesn't matter even if Rose City is reduced to ruins. It's not my home anyway."
"Understood." Miranda went downstairs to make arrangements.
Following Zhang Tuohai's warning, the originally tense situation between Sanders and Pedro ended. Both sides drew boundaries according to the actual control areas, governed accordingly, and each side prevented patrol teams from patrolling the border.
At the same time, the negotiating representatives from Saskatchewan also came to Rose City. After some haggling, the two sides agreed that Rose City would still belong to the territory of the Lighthouse Country in name, but it would be completely autonomous. Neither the federal government nor Saskatchewan would have the right to enter Rose City to enforce the law. All rights belonged to the citizens of Rose City. All people were completely free citizens, enjoying unlimited freedom and would not be governed by anyone.
After signing a contract , Rose City officially declared autonomy.
Soon, the news spread all over the Internet.
No one could have imagined that these mobs actually succeeded in opening up a piece of territory within the territory of the Lighthouse Country. Even the Supreme Court of Saskatchewan reviewed and passed this bill - all affairs in Rose City are decided freely by citizens and are not subject to federal and state laws.
This attracted a lot of attention, and many people on the verge of bankruptcy were ready to take action.
They were on the verge of bankruptcy and wanted to flee to the Rose City to escape the fate of bankruptcy liquidation.
Some people who were obsessed with freedom were the first to take various means of transportation to the Rose City, hoping to live there and breathe the sweet and free air to their heart's content.
A large number of ambitious people also took a fancy to this lawless place and rushed to the Rose City with various purposes.
A large number of vendors also saw the business opportunities here and rushed here from all directions, wanting to cut a piece of this cake.
People of all kinds, with various , gathered towards the Rose City.
