Chapter 495

    Before the rise of modern industry, fur was an important raw material for warm clothing.


    When she was in Carites, other chambers of Commerce gave Lorraine hill a special winter skirt, which impressed her deeply.


    The fur on the table is soft to the touch, and it looks clean with little dust and blood. It can be seen that the stall owner has put a lot of thought into the handling of materials.


    After feeling a few pieces of fur with his hand, Lorraine Hill took it back.


    "How are you, young lady? Are you satisfied?" The stall owner looked at the girl anxiously and thought that she should be a customer. She had to make a good friend, and maybe she could make a big business.


    Lorraine Hill shook his head and said nothing. Instead, he turned his head to the other stalls and looked at the fur in front of them.


    Then she returned to the open space beside the market, where the caravan was parked.


    Towards noon, all the young men with the caravan came back, and then Lorraine Hill appeared again.


    She sat under the umbrella and the people in front of her began to report on the results of the inspection.


    The first is a young official from the Ministry of Agriculture: "the price of food here is three times that of inland provinces, and even the supply exceeds the demand.".


    Then came the people from the Ministry of Commerce and trade. "Many necessities for inland production are in short supply, such as iron utensils, salt, coarse cloth, etc."


    The observation point of the Ministry of armaments is different. "These orcs are tall, and although their nutrition is not as good as that of inland provinces, their strength can not be underestimated. In addition, the fur they sell can be used to make many military supplies."


    Lorraine Hill took the black tea Mila had made for her, took a sip, and then continued.


    "If you were the supreme leaders of clancia, what would you do to these orcs on the grassland?"


    Hearing this question, the young officials at the bottom were immediately interested, and all kinds of whispered discussions rang out.


    Some of them want to use it as a dumping market, some want to use these orcs as cheap mercenaries, and some want to conquer this land.


    "Not to mention anything else, if it is to conquer this land, what price does clancia need to pay and what benefits can it get?"


    Lorraine Hill doesn''t really have a bad feeling for the orcs. Perhaps once there was a deep hatred between humans and orcs, but after nearly two thousand years of war and cleansing, these hatred has been returned and dispelled.


    Especially after we know the origin of orcs from the relics, there is no barrier. The intelligent creatures on this planet are actually different branches of ancient human beings.


    But she also knows that her own ideas are not enough. She has to understand the current views of the clancians and change and persuade most people in the country to carry out some policies.


    "Considering the orc''s physique and strength, it will take 300000 clannish regular troops, and it will take 1-2 years to win."


    One military officer estimated, but he didn''t know much about the post-war issues.


    A young man with glasses held the frame of the glasses and helped to add, "in order to maintain the rule, we have to have at least 80000 standing troops, which is still in good order. Besides, we have to build castles and supply lines."


    "The good thing is that we can turn the grassland into a ranch in clancia and provide a lot of cattle and sheep."


    "A lot? No, no, no... "A young man from the Ministry of Commerce and trade came forward.


    "Not so much. We have to transport food for these people on the grassland, otherwise they will not hand over their cattle and sheep, because those are their last grain reserves and their lifeline. If we really want to be strong, we will spend more military expenses, which is not cost-effective."


    "So I suggest that it should be regarded as a vassal. We can trade a little grain for a lot of fur, which can save a lot of unnecessary military expenditure."


    Other people began to argue again. At this time, a radical youth said, "why not be cruel and clean up these orcs so that the people of our country can go to explore..."


    Although he didn''t directly say killing, he replaced it with cleaning up, but the understatement still made other people feel a little shocked.


    "That''s not right." A clear voice came from above.


    Lolan hill put down his tea cup and sighed that no matter what era it was, there were always some cruel and extremely direct people.


    "I''m not simply saying that this idea is bad morally, but that it will bring about extremely bad consequences."


    "If it''s not for the fight between life and death or the deep hatred of the sea, it''s not good."


    "Maybe what you think is very simple. Kill the enemy and everything will be fine."


    "But it''s not one person, it''s a race, and it''s not one person, it''s a race."


    "A man''s mistake can be washed away and paid for by his death or punishment."


    "But a race can''t repay like this, because repayment means extermination."


    "Of course, you can say that if I kill it, I kill it. But it''s hard to cover up the killing of a race. Sooner or later, it will be known by its own descendants, outsiders and so on. "


    "Then you have to make the other party accept the fact."


    "If you teach your children to be a good person, but as an elder, you do something that goes against the professor''s belief. It''s like smashing your own exquisite porcelain, and your other words are no longer credible."


    "Or if you have to defend yourself, you can say that you taught your children to be cruel, ignore the rules and do everything possible. Then it is difficult for such descendants to trust and cooperate with each other."


    "The foundation of groups, organizations and countries lies in rules and cooperation. Such division of labor can greatly improve efficiency, which is also necessary for civilization to enter the next era."


    "A single individual can''t compete with a group of well-trained groups."


    "Unity means strength, while separation and weakness also means elimination."


    "Only by combining words and deeds can we have a clear mind and a strong will. If we just set up a good name at ordinary times and put it aside for the time being when we see the benefits, we will be greedy for the benefits. How can we set up the belief of a country if we know the little proprieties but not the great ones?"


    "Why the west wind decays, why the weak clancia can spread like wildfire in a short year, why everyone abides by the law and trusts the country."


    "The source of everything lies in its justice, which is the most basic thing to maintain the country."


    "And now, for this paltry benefit, are you going to break the foundation of your existence?"


    Lorraine hill stood up and walked slowly past the group of young people. All these young officials bowed their heads in silence and did not dare to look directly at the silver haired girl, as if they were ashamed of their childish remarks and ideas.


    During this period of time, lorenthal, a sage, was approachable and seldom scolded them, so that they gradually let go of their past awe.


    It is only today that they once recalled that this seemingly 16-year-old girl is the spiritual leader of this huge country, the mentor of thousands of revolutionary army, who can change the fate of countless people.


    "Don''t say such words easily in the future, you should know how heavy the weight is, heavy enough to bury a country or nation."


    "Yes
