Chapter 158 Federation
Even if it is because yesterday's news spread that a new great sage was born in Fran City, countless people poured into the city with different interests, causing the business of the tavern to be particularly booming today.

Zhu Houcong was still in the same black evening dress he had come in. He looked at the newsboy in front of him who had not slept well for two days and one night due to anxiety and said.

"If you don't want to come with me, I can leave you some runes, which will probably be enough for you to live for a while."

"..."

The girl in front of her, who had already taken a shower and put on a neutral outfit, did not immediately answer Zhu Houcong's question about her fate for the rest of her life.

Instead, he looked at the particularly upright blond girl sitting next to Zhu Houcong.

"who is she?"

Zhu Houcong was not surprised. In fact, Zhu Houcong had already noticed it when the two first met.

"Danani, a lost girl who was unfortunately abandoned by her companions because she had lost her use value, saw how pitiful she was. When she saw her, she hugged my thigh and begged to be taken in, saying that she would voluntarily work for me as a cow, dress, and warm my bed for the rest of her life. As a well-known good person, I had no choice but to keep her."

Danani - the rebel in the darkness.

At first glance, it sounds like it's not a name that a serious person could give.

However, the girl who had been hiding her true gender as a newsboy looked at Danani, who was being a good girl next to Zhu Houcong and secretly making faces at her, and suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis.

Do you know the name now?
I haven't reported my home status yet?
"I want to follow you - I don't think you are a bad person."

After thinking for a moment, the girl answered.

At this time, when the girl opposite Danani heard this, her grimace became even more exaggerated.

"Well--"

Zhu Houcong tapped his fingers on the wooden table.

Hearing this, the face of the thief girl Danani fell instantly.

"Ravenna, my name is Ravenna."

Cruel nature?

The girl in front of her looked stubborn.

Born from desolation and growing wildly.

"Well, we will leave for Moren City in two days."

I am another free scientific research migrant worker. Sure enough, even God is helping me!
Zhu Houcong thought as he already had an official status in this world and no longer had any worries before.

Outside the door, there was suddenly a burst of noise.

Upon noticing the identity of the person at the door, everyone in the tavern immediately stood up to greet him.

The old man standing in front of him, Zhu Houcong, was very familiar. It was Dunn who was led out of the city after fighting with the wizards yesterday.

"Sir Speaker? Why are you here!"

Seeing the person coming, the voluptuous and beautiful female owner of the tavern rushed to greet him. It was obvious that there was some friendship between the two that was not common to outsiders.

Dunn nodded towards her and looked towards Zhu Houcong.

"An old friend is visiting today, so I've reserved the venue here first. Natasha, you won't mind if I ruin your business."

"How is this possible? Everyone, the drinks you have ordered are considered as an apology and are free of charge today."

Looking at the several parliamentary gendarmes behind Dunn who were not equipped with guns, but were looking at the people in the tavern with unkind expressions.

Everyone got up and left knowingly.

Soon only Zhu Houcong's table was left in the field.

Danani could roughly guess Zhu Houcong's identity, so she was not surprised by the speaker's arrival.

But in front of Ravenna, she was obviously dumbfounded as Dunn and the others walked straight towards her and others.

As a newsboy, although she could not see these big figures in the city on weekdays, the face of this famous member of the Confederate Parliament of Creation and Speaker of the Franchise City Parliament was on the front page of the newspaper every day.

"nothing--"

Zhu Houcong comforted him casually.

Zhu Houcong is still quite concerned about the only two technology porters under his command, and said to Danani. "Make room for this old man."

"No, I'll just sit here."

Dunn moved a chair and sat across from Zhu Houcong.

Next to her, Ravenna felt that it was now difficult to even breathe.

"Don't be nervous, I'll be leaving in a minute."

The military police captain Owen next to him looked at Dunn, who always appeared in front of everyone with a cold and decisive attitude towards the enemy. At this time, for the first time, he comforted a little girl who walked out of the almshouse. He couldn't help but sigh at the absurdity of the world.

Dunn turned to Zhu Houcong, looked at the young man in front of him who was so bored that he picked up the hops from the beer, and said seriously.

"I am here on behalf of the Federal Council of Creation to invite you to join the council and ask you what your considerations are for the future."

The Union—not the Confederacy.

Zhu Houcong keenly grasped the difference between the two.

"When did the Northern Continent United States turn into a federation?"

Zhu Houcong became interested, put down his beer glass, and asked.

After hearing Dunn's words, the surrounding people reacted even more violently. Gendarmerie Captain Owen's face was full of excitement, while the boss's wife's expression became much more complicated.

"The draft was drawn up three months ago. After a symbolic vote next month, the original Northern Continent United States Federation will officially become the Northern Continent United States Federation."

Dunn looked at Zhu Houcong with a calm expression.

"How do you feel?"

"What obligations do MPs have? What rights do they have?"

Zhu Houcong asked.

"I won't talk about the rights of MPs that you can know in public. Let me tell you the privileges of MPs over other people in this country."

Dunn held up a finger.

"The first is the federal legal immunity. Within the federal territory, as long as you do not commit the two unforgivable crimes of treason and anti-humanity, no law enforcement agency has the right to arrest you. Only the Parliament of Creation has the right to hear all charges against you. And you have the right to vote against it in the Council of Creation in protest.”

He stretched out a second one.

"The second is the federal financial subsidy. You only need to sign with the federal government at the end of each year to indicate that you will stay in the federal territory for a year. The federal government will automatically give you a replacement annuity, and if you are willing, you can apply for in-country Any city that has no other members stationed in it becomes Speaker——"

"Forget it, I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to study - I originally planned to go to the Ether Research Institute in Moen City to see if there are any positions suitable for me."

Zhu Houcong said.

"I can write you a letter of recommendation now and ask them to leave a few teaching positions for you to choose from. By the way, I can also ask Morgan to put some shares in your name from the college."

Dunn didn't blink.

"Then, happy cooperation."

Zhu Houcong signed his name on the agreement handed to him.

Although Dunn said it lightly, Zhu Houcong did not think that changing the Confederation to the Federation would be as simple as signing a few bills.

If Zhu Houcong doesn't agree, I'm afraid he can only do it once today.

Although he is not afraid, for Zhu Houcong who is in a hurry to steal technology, offending the government here is still quite troublesome for what he has to do in the future.

However - this is not a bad thing for Zhu Houcong.

Only when it is on the brink of desperation will the Federation come up with more good things that it would never come up with at ordinary times, and share exceptionally rare technologies and resources with its allies.

"Zhu Houcong - it's like the name used by the ethnic groups in the New World..."

However, Dunn didn't care. The United States was originally a country formed by immigrants from various countries, and residents of the New World were naturally not unusual among them.

After dealing with it, Dunn stood up. After giving the proprietress a sum of money as compensation, this resolute old man reminded Zhu Houcong before leaving.

"Don't forget to go to Enqi, the capital, in early December to attend the First Federal Congress in two months. At that time, the federal government will still need the sages to collectively express their stance in front of the media in order to shock the little ones everywhere."
