life.

Democratic thought.

A series of groundbreaking ideas spread in a very short period of time.

The entire Holy Dragon Province and the area occupied by the Principality of Baya were discussing the new decree issued by the Galan Empire from top to bottom.

Because the capitalist class has been uprooted.

Now almost all industries have been nationalized and operated solely by the state.

On the second day after the decree was issued, all these nationalized industries implemented the new decree and enforced the new system.

New work schedules and announcements are posted on every factory's bulletin board.

"Work at 9 o'clock, take a 1-hour lunch break, go home at 6 o'clock, and work five days a week..."

“Working half the hours but getting the same salary as before?”

"God, am I seeing this correctly?"

"There's no mistake! This is a decree issued by His Majesty Vega Saint Laurent!"

"I've heard that too. He said that everyone is equal. We are human beings, not livestock of the nobles and the capitalist class!"

"..."

Tears flowed uncontrollably.

The common people in all the ruled areas have never been as happy as they are today.

The workers shortened their working hours but received the same income as before. The farmers got their own land and no longer had to hand over 80% of their harvest to the nobles. They only had to pay 15% tax to the state.

The visible and tangible benefits are driving the civilians crazy.

They worship Vega as a god and a pioneer, and are grateful to every soldier wearing the uniform of the Galan Army from the bottom of their hearts.

In less than a week, the soldiers of the Jialan Army successfully fell in love with this land, because even in their own country, they had never felt the heartfelt respect and admiration from the civilians.

At the same time, Vega was also shocked.

Although he abolished the sixteen-hour, year-round work system, the production of state-owned industries did not fall behind or stagnate, but instead accelerated.

in other words.

These workers are more efficient in 8 hours of work than in the previous 16 hours of work.

I spent twice as much time, but gained more than before?
Vega was puzzled by this matter.

But what is certain is that these new laws are deeply popular among the people, and even make ordinary people love them from the bottom of their hearts.

When things got to this point, Vega finally revealed a cruel smile.

The more crazy the civilians love these systems, the greater the backlash they will face when the Western countries take over this territory. It will surely be a very interesting drama to see whether the countries that take over can suppress the anger of the civilians.

And he arrived at that time.

Just sit on the other side of the mountain and enjoy this grand show.

Time passes slowly.

The bluestone road is already covered with red maple leaves.

The new system has been in effect for more than a month, and although it has not been fully implemented in just one month, it will probably take another year or two to fully implement it and perfect the details. But it doesn't matter, because most people have already enjoyed the benefits brought by the new system, so just planting a seed is enough.

So now.

“It’s time to go home.”

Vega looked at the falling maple leaves and muttered to himself.

Then the next day, he led the well-prepared Jialan Army and moved towards the Jialan Mountains. At the same time, he took away all the core personnel in the Holy Dragon Province, leaving only the temporary security teams and officials formed locally to continue to maintain the operation of various cities.

He also publicly stated that he would take the Jialan Army back to the imperial capital.

Most civilians did not realize that there was anything wrong with this, and they did not realize that Vega was abandoning them, because in their opinion, the king should be in the imperial capital, and it was natural for him to return to the east with the army. Only a few smart people saw through everything.

They understood that the good days were coming to an end and the land would be taken over by other countries again.

By then, other countries will certainly not allow this system, which is harmful to the bourgeoisie and the nobles, to survive. The first thing they will do is probably to abolish the new system, implement the original old system, and continue to keep them as livestock.

So for them.

There are only two choices.

The first is to treat everything that happened before as a dream and become the livestock of the capitalists and nobles again.

Another option is...

Some smart people have begun to form cliques in secret, preparing to launch a rebellion against the ruling class when the time comes.

Only common people understand common people.

It would be fine without the light brought by Vega. I wouldn't miss it if I didn't see it.

But having seen the splendor of light, how can one endure the darkness of night?

A seed planted by Veigar broke through the soil before winter, showing extremely strong vitality.

But at this time.

Even if Vega knew the news, he probably wouldn't be happy anyway.

Because at this time his face was extremely pale.

When he was preparing to leave Starwind City with his army, a snowflake fell from the sky and landed in his hand. The cold feeling spread from his hand to his heart, and finally made his face pale.

Snow……

Heavy snow fell from the sky.

Vega was in no mood to appreciate this beautiful scene.

"Why is it snowing at this time?!"

"Can anyone tell me why it's snowing at this time!!"

"Word Spirit Mage! Word Spirit Mage, get out here!"

Veigar's angry voice echoed, and the Chief Word Mage came to Veigar tremblingly.

The Word Spirit Mage in front of him is at a superior level, and he is also the only superior Word Spirit Mage in the East. With him in charge, Shadow Mage, weather changes... and even earthquakes can be accurately predicted.

But this time his prediction was wrong.

According to the prediction of the Word Spirit Mage, the snow should fall in twenty days, but the scene in front of him directly proved that the prediction was wrong. This made Vega suspect that his chief Word Spirit Mage had been bribed and had severely deceived him.

"I don't know. I don't know."

The Word Spirit Mage was trembling all over. "According to my prediction, the first snow of winter will fall in twenty days. Even if I make a new prediction now, the result will still be the same. I really don't know why it is snowing now."

Crying bitterly.

The Word Spirit Mage had never encountered anything like this before.

He is an upper-level Word Spirit Mage. How could he make such a huge mistake when performing a weather prediction technique that even a Level 1 Word Spirit Mage can use? Even he himself did not understand what had happened.

"I believe what you say."

Vega’s words were very blunt: “But your suspicion has not been cleared! You should stay at the Procuratorate’s Office until I figure out what happened.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me. Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me." Master Yan Ling was taken away crying bitterly.

Vega turned his head to the intelligence officer and said, "Check it again right now. Five hundred years ago, no! One thousand years ago, is there any record of snowfall in late autumn in the West?"

"Your Majesty, no, no."

The intelligence officer was also very nervous: "You asked me to investigate once three months ago. Although you only asked me to check the records of 500 years ago, we have actually investigated the records of 1,000 years ago. There is no record of snowfall in late autumn in the West."

Veigar said nothing more.

He looked up at the heavy snow falling in the sky, and still couldn't believe that anyone could control the weather. This kind of thing must be done with divine magic, right?
