"Do you support it? Or don't you support it? Just say something nice, don't be so talkative." Mi Longlong said impatiently.
"Since you want to be the regional chief executive, don't worry, we will analyze the situation slowly, and then we will be able to discuss good countermeasures." Lycias said dissatisfiedly: "If you only want me to say something. Feel free to say it, okay! I agree to support you, you can go back!"
"Good! Good! I was wrong, you said, you said." Miron had to resign.
"Theoretically speaking, with your qualifications and political achievements, it should not be a problem to become the chief executive of the East and West Sili regions..." said Lysias, the ponder.
"Of course, if it wasn't because Cypros was clever and led the Trina people to support Dionia early, King Davos was more favorable to him, otherwise I would have had the right to fight for the wartime governor of Sicily. A post." Miron said with some resentment.
Lysias' face changed slightly, and he persuaded immediately: "Don't talk nonsense! Elder Cypros is shrewd and capable. Not only did he make great contributions in the Western Mediterranean War, but after he became the rotating chairman of the Senate, he joined us to assist His Majesty. The recovery of the kingdom after the war has also provided great help... If your words fall into the ears of His Majesty, I am afraid that your desire to become the regional administrator will be dashed."
"I'm just telling you here, how can you be foolish to publicize it everywhere, you are too careful." Miron said disapprovingly: "Besides, His Majesty made a promise today that he will not interfere with the election of the regional chief executive. "
Lycias's expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Miron, as your friend, I solemnly warn you that it is best to always be in awe of His Majesty Davos! I have served as the rotating chairman for all these years, I have spent a lot of time with His Majesty, he is far more powerful than you think! If he knows that you are disrespectful to him, he has a way to make you never become the district administrator, and I have to stay away from you in the future. Far!"
Miron was taken aback by the sudden change of attitude of Lycias, stunned, and quickly changed his words: "How dare I disrespect Your Majesty! I'm just... OK! OK! I swear to Hades, I will do it later. Don't talk nonsense!... Now tell me, what are my chances of becoming the chief executive of the East West Sili region?"
Lycias did not answer directly, but instead asked, "How many years have you been in eastern Sicily?"
"Counting the time in Naxos, it should be 8 years!" Miron folded his fingers and counted, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Eight years is indeed too long!" Lycias also sighed: "You still remember the story of Antonios and Laodicien."
Miron suddenly froze in his heart: "You mean to say..."
"I think you should be clear that in order to prevent that incident from happening again, very few elders can serve as chief executive in a town for more than 10 years, not even for 8 years. Although you are in two different Towns, but they are too close to each other and belong to the same region. If you become the chief executive of the East and West Sili region, it will definitely take more than 10 years... I think when the election, there will definitely be some elders who also covet this position will criticize With this question of yours, it is almost impossible for you to be elected!"
"This..." Miron slumped on the chair as if he had been slapped in the head, but he immediately realized something, barely cheered up, and asked, "You just said that you supported me in the election, did you mean—"
Lysias smiled and said, "Although it is unlikely that you will become the chief executive of the East West Sili region, with your qualifications and political achievements, you can completely compete for other regional chief executives. Do you have any intentions?"
"His Majesty just announced this proposal this afternoon. I only want to run for the chief executive of the East and West Sili regions. I have no time to think about other things... But since there is not much chance of becoming the chief executive of this region, I can also run for the chief executive of other regions." Miron also quickly figured it out.
"Then let's take a look. Which region's chief executive is more suitable for you? Is it easier to win?" Lycias analyzed calmly: "The chief executive of the southern region of Iberia has been identified as Bagu. Le, the administrator of the Roman region is Asistes, the candidate for the administrator of the western region of Sicily... Although His Majesty has not announced it publicly, it should not be you, and then exclude the East and West Sicily regions...
By the way, there is also a Crotone area. If you want to govern our hometown, I am afraid some of the elders at the meeting will question and say that you want to favor favoritism. In order to avoid trouble, we will also exclude it. down...
Although there are not many towns and populations in Corsica and northern Sardinia, the mining and smelting of various metals there are very important to the development of the kingdom, so their weight in the kingdom is not low. The last time Lompori served as Sardinia's wartime governor was because of the urgent needs of the kingdom during the war. He was too old and lacked energy. He had long been tired of serving in the local area. Regional Administrator of Nia, if you're interested, go for a competition. However, you have never had experience in managing a mine before, and this may become the handle of your opponent's attack. "
"I'm not interested in being a mine foreman." Miron said simply: "I've been in Sicily for too long. Since I can't be the chief executive of the East and West Sicily, I don't want to stay in Sicily anymore..."
"So, you won't compete for the chief executive of the Strait of Messina, Syracuse, and southern Sicily..." Luciens said, suddenly realized something, looked at Miron and asked: " Do you already have a goal?"
Miron grinned. "I was also inspired when I was talking to you just now. What do you think of the Messapi District Administrator?"
"Messapi area... If it was said that in the years after the kingdom conquered it, it was still very difficult to manage the people there. Now more than ten years have passed, and the Messapi area has long since become peaceful and large. Like the rest of Greece, it is not difficult to govern. As a result, it has no special features among the dozen or so newly divided regions of the kingdom.
The population of this area is not large, the land area is not large, and there is some fertile arable land, but the output does not rank among the top 5 in various regions. There is also some good livestock, but it can't compare with Bruti and Lucania. It has both maritime trade and land trade, but it is not very prosperous... Such a region seems a bit mediocre in all aspects, and its strength can only be ranked in the middle of the kingdom. Why do you choose it? "Lycias is a little puzzled. He knows that Miron is not a person who likes mediocrity. On the contrary, he likes to be aggressive in doing things. It seems that the choice of the Messapi area does not suit his personality.
"The Mesapi region has a feature that other regions do not have." Miron smiled mysteriously, and then said seriously: "It is the closest to the Peloponnese! The closest to mainland Greece!"
"What do you mean..." Lycias seemed to understand something from Miron's slightly excited face, he was surprised, but shook his head and said: "This is impossible! The kingdom's current strategy is still to The development of the north, not to mention that the kingdom has not recovered from the war in the Western Mediterranean, and the benefits obtained in the war have not been fully digested, and it is impossible to launch another war in a short period of time…”
"Of course I understand this." Miron still insisted on his own opinion: "But sometimes the situation develops rapidly, not what we want, just like the Western Mediterranean War, we also insisted on developing northward, but no one To think that Carthage would declare war on us first.
The situation in mainland Greece is complicated. The war has lasted for so many years. Maybe when a certain city-state pays a certain price and asks the kingdom to go to quell the war and move the majesty and the senate, after all, our Dionysus is so powerful and far from the mainland of Greece. So close, it's impossible for these war-torn Greek city-states to be without ideas..."
Having said that, Miron leaned back and said leisurely in a more comfortable posture: "Since the candidate for the administrator of the Roman region has been determined, I can only choose the Mesapi region to bet, maybe in the Was there really a war during my tenure? By then, maybe I'll be able to get the hang of it, like Cypros, because Naval Base Brindisi is right next to Messapi and not far from mainland Greece. The nearest port town, Odrum, is in the Messapi area, and not long ago the Athenian navy landed on the island of Kerkyra, making this Greek island very close to the Messapi area attached to them…”
"You, even though you haven't led troops to fight in person for more than 10 years, you are still so eager for war..." Lycias shook his head helplessly, and then said, "Since you have chosen the Messapi area, we can do this... First let someone nominate you as a candidate for the chief executive of the East West Sili region. After the election fails, when it is the turn of the Messapi region chief executive, you will take the initiative to express your willingness to participate in the election.
Since you failed the first time not because of lack of performance and qualifications, but only because of the unfortunate reason of 'too long in office', the elders are likely to show their support for you out of sympathy. Of course, to be more secure, I suggest you talk to Antaoris again tonight and seek his support. "
"Antaoris... I haven't had much contact with him for eight years since I worked in Sicily." Miron looked a little regretful.
"It doesn't matter. Before joining Dionia, we knew Antaoris, and you have a good relationship with him over the years, and according to the new regional division, his home state (Krimi) Sa) was also assigned to the Crotone region, we all belong to the same region..." Lycias encouraged with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll go in a while." Miron replied simply.
