Chapter 683 [Chapter of the Fatal Game] One Hundred and Thirty Two: Big Shots

Freeman said nothing. As one of the senators in the House of Commons, he had seen the complete and detailed social investigation report, so he knew clearly that what Lil Besarius said was traceable.

As for the issue of "enacting minimum wage standards will lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises", someone has already run it in a simulator.

After entering this condition as a variable into the simulator, the result was an economic collapse that lasted for thirty years and an even more chaotic social environment.

After a large number of simulation results similar to this appeared, someone collected the running data of these simulation results and summarized them:

"Society is a huge group, and any changes to its fundamental rules will cause a series of changes. Variables that worsen society will usually cause the deterioration of more variables. Before the variables that cause the entire simulation process to be optimized are not input,

The process of deterioration will continue until destruction.》

Many people believe that this is one of the most valuable conclusions that the simulator has brought to everyone.

But Freeman didn't think so.

Freeman believes that "changes in a single important variable have an impact on the social environment" is a false proposition in itself - in reality, it is not just the same variable that affects the social environment.

The conditions that affect the social environment are complex, and the simulation environment of the simulator is ideal. Freeman believes that if you want to verify the impact of a "rule" on society, you need to have the perspective and understanding of a senator.

Derive the necessary variables, and then verify them with the theories in the articles in the forum to adjust the variables to the appropriate level. Finally, input the appropriate variables into the simulator to get more accurate results.

Freeman also understood that his idea had a fatal flaw—it could not be verified in practice in the real world and could only remain at the theoretical level—

This is also one of the most fundamental shortcomings of the simulator.

Therefore, from a rational point of view, he cannot predict the future predicted by Lil Besarius - he cannot be sure whether "the establishment of minimum wage standards will lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises" will inevitably happen.

From a personal point of view, he does not have the courage to bear such consequences, because he has already seen the shocking things in the simulator.

As the most junior and youngest senator in the entire House of Commons, Freeman had a completely different perspective from ordinary people due to his upbringing before entering the House of Commons. However, due to the lack of social experience, he was still ignorant of everything -

—

His worldview in the past came entirely from indirect experiences brought by his family. He had not seen much before his eyes, and he had not practiced the concepts instilled by his family and the worldview he had established in just over twenty years, so his understanding of society was not that great.

He is thorough and has only a partial understanding of the emergence of some social chaos.

Until those articles appeared in the forum.

When Freeman got those articles, it was as if a new universe exploded in his head. He seemed to be looking directly at the truth. All the questions in the past were solved by the analysis of those theories, and the future direction became clear in front of him.

He is addicted to simulator games, trying to find the fundamental solution to all the chaos in Yanan City.

He spent enough time and put in enough effort that until this morning when he was waiting for the meeting to decide the fate of Yanan City to start, he was still playing the simulator game on his mobile phone——

After the server was fully controlled, he first used his power to easily find the parliamentary department that confiscated the newspaper server, and asked his personal programmer to copy more than 10 terabytes of development-end data packages, and established his own at home.

I have my own server and development terminal, and successfully run the client on my mobile phone.

In simulation after simulation, he gained a deeper understanding of the entire society based on the theories in the forum articles.

He knew that although the experience gained from the simulator was still indirect, it still had very important value - when he ran the simulator enough times, he gradually realized that the logic of the simulator was based on those in the forum.

The theories in the article are compiled, and they are the underlying rules for the operation of society.

After realizing this, when he looked at those theories again, he suddenly became enlightened, like a new life.

Even if you know that "everything in the simulator is only done at the theoretical level and cannot be verified in practice," you can still understand and analyze the theory to a certain extent through the simulator, and gain insights into specific aspects.

This is the reason why he chose to speak at this meeting now - he wants to take a chance, because he clearly knows that Yanan City has reached the most critical moment, and now is not the time to consider whether there will be bad results.

He looked at Lier Besarius and repeated his opinion again:

"I think we need to hand over our interests to the marchers to quell this riot."

This is the first time Freeman has spoken in such a strong tone in the House of Representatives.

Other lawmakers, including the archbishop as interim speaker, did not immediately question his opinion.

What they seriously considered was not what Freeman's opinion was, but how the forces behind Freeman would react after they rejected Freeman's opinion.

As veteran members of the Conservative Party, Freeman's family is somewhat of an anomaly - they are not as conservative as other traditional Conservative members.

In comparison, Freeman's family is much more open and radical than most Conservatives.

Freeman's full name is Freeman Stafford.

The Stafford family, as one of the old nobles in Yanan City, is fundamentally different from the Phoenix family, who came from a foreign country and later became the nobles of Yanan——

The heritage of the Stafford family is long enough, and their ancestors have participated in enough wars, which means that they have gained a huge amount of territory through wars and have more opportunities to participate in the industrial age when it comes.

The history of the Stafford family when the city of Yharnam was not yet established is unknown, because the largest private library in Yharnam, the Birmingham Street Central Library, is the private property of the Stafford family. In the early years, they

Books containing family history were acquired and hidden so that people could not learn the truth about this ancient family from most channels.

When Yanan City was founded, due to various reasons, the Stafford family, as a very small minority among the old aristocracy, participated in the process of industrialization, and thus reaped a large amount of dividends of the times, becoming a rare family that was transformed by the industrial age into

The old aristocracy became the new aristocracy.

Their money and power ushered in another expansion with the emergence of the Northern Federation.

At that time, Yharnam City had just become a member of the Northern Federation, and the Upper House of Yharnam City Council still held a lot of power. The Stafford family occupied more than thirty seats in the House of Lords due to their status as a great noble.

And because of his status as a business owner in various industries, he occupies more than fifty seats in the House of Commons——

The huge force established by the Stafford family based on its own power is not entirely through direct family ties, but is tied to blood, through marriage and various nepotisms, and it ties motivated young people from all walks of life to this frame.

On the old chariot that has been refurbished by industrialization, and with the new core of the industrial age as the engine, it is unstoppable for a period of time.

The Stafford family has such profound influence that even Charles, the current leader of the Conservative Party, can be related to them——

Charles' brother-in-law is the husband of Freeman's cousin's third daughter.

By Freeman's generation, due to the annexation of most seats in the Yharnam City Council, the Stafford family had almost completely retreated to the House of Lords, leaving only Freeman standing in front of the stage.
