【Written in the previous words:】

In this chapter,

For some nouns, from a rigorous academic perspective, it may be a bit far-fetched.

But it was also thoughtful, and I suddenly wanted to write.

so……

If there is something wrong with the writing, I hope everyone will correct it!

It was only in the past few days that I suddenly realized that some things can be explained from another perspective.

———

The Kingdom of Basel in June can already be called the hot summer.

but……

No matter how hot the weather and environment are, they are far less enthusiastic than the Basel nobles.

As the price of tulips soared,

When the time came to the end of June, the price of a tulip bulb was as high as nine gold coins!

Half a year!

In just half a year,

Many Basel nobles have earned money that has been able to accumulate in the past decade or even decades through the rising tulip bulbs.

Although these wealth only stays on paper,

But it also made them feel like a burning bonfire hidden in their hearts, making the hearts of the entire Kingdom of Basel floating.

The nobles of the Kingdom of Basel no longer wanted to let their serfs grow food.

so……

Baby tulip bulbs are planted in the land originally used to grow wheat.

The merchants of the Kingdom of Basel no longer had to worry about traveling back and forth to sell merchants everywhere.

After all...the tulip business is obviously much easier to do compared to the hard work of rushing along the way.

They don't have to worry about risks along the way or price fluctuations.

Just store the tulips you purchased in the warehouse and your own value will increase.

Everyone,

From aristocrats to merchants, to civilians with slightly rich life...

Most of them have been immersed in the atmosphere of tulips soaring and have lost their own judgment.

Of course some people have raised doubts.

Of course, some people have criticized this strongly.

But……

In communication science, there is a phenomenon called... [Silent Spiral].

in short,

When people express their ideas and opinions, if they see that their opinions they agree with are widely welcome, they will actively participate and make such opinions bolder to publish and spread.

But if no one or few people pay attention to the sounds they make, and sometimes they will be attacked by groups... Then even if you agree with it, you will already buried it deep in your heart and remain silent in front of others.

Just like in the previous life before Bruno traveled through time, the variety of eyes on the Internet were dazzling,

But regrettably...

After almost every entry related to policy measures, under every news that spreads positive energy, there will be a group of people who instigate and insult them.

They hate the country, they pick on tricks, they promote gender opposition everywhere, and put various hats on people who disagree with them...

Then,

Slowly...

There are fewer people who refute them.

This does not mean that everyone agrees with their views, but that... netizens who originally dared to speak up for justice have fallen into a spiral of silence...

At this time, the social public opinion in the Kingdom of Basel was in a trend of evolution in this regard.

only……

In the Kingdom of Basel, the people who are sober are no longer the majority of people, but the very few smart people.

They feel that behind the surge in tulips, there may be an invisible big hand that manipulates everything, causing the price of tulips to soar.

But……

First, because they can't produce evidence,

Second, because those nobles who were immersed in huge profits had the intention to listen to others talking about this?

so……

The aristocrats treated speech similar to this very simple way.

If the person who speaks out is a civilian, then beat him up; if he is a noble, then go to the door to debate with others and reason with others.

Anyway...

As more and more people join the army that advocates the value of tulips, almost everyone regards the surge in tulip prices as a reasonable thing.

This phenomenon is actually called [I in the Mirror], and is still a communication noun.

in short,

People’s understanding of themselves is mainly formed through social interaction with others.

How to say it?

For example...

And we still take Bruno's previous life as an example.

In that era,

A large number of foreigners have an inexplicable prejudice towards us.

For example...

A brand that can return goods in most countries and regions for thirty days actually refuses to return goods on our land.

They proclaim the values ​​they believe in as the only correct values.

They do their best to belittle us and vilify us...

Do they really don’t know what changes have happened in the land where we live?

Do they really don’t know that they are actually the descendants of robbers, and their bodies are filled with ugly and sinful blood?

The answer is...

Those ordinary people may really not know.

Because from beginning to end, we have never been what we really look like in Western media.

But……

They have always lived in that environment, and all the feedback they receive from us is full of maliciousness and prejudice.

This is me in the mirror.

In their false public opinion atmosphere, they think that what they hear is true, and they think that they are the right one.

Just like the nobles of this era,

Their views on the Principal of Idar have always been desolate, remote, poor and backward.

Even if the Principal of Idar made the Odin Empire flee, even if the Principal of Idar asked the refugees to go first,

But in the hearts of the nobles...

The Principal of Idar is still the Principal of Idar, and the poor and backward Principal of Idar.

This is a stereotype that has been formed long ago.

Even some sober nobles witnessed the changes in the Principal of Idar, in the atmosphere of poverty in the general view of the Principal of Idar... they will gradually become members of the [Silent Spiral].

And in the present Kingdom of Basel,

The nobles of the Kingdom of Basel have stubbornly determined that tulips will definitely rise! They will continue to rise!

so……

Even at this moment, King Basel stood up and said that tulips would plummet, and no one would believe such a conclusion.
To be continued...
