A small country also has the benefit of a small country.
Not to mention a large country with a population of more than 100 million, even a country with a population of several million, it is impossible to gather government officials from all over the country in just half an hour.
Moreover, it was still at night.
But for Tuvalu, a tiny country with an area of only 26 square kilometers and a population of just over 10,000 people, half an hour is enough to not only gather government officials from all over the country, but also prepare the hardware needed to vote.
Li Daniu did not come forward to hold a vote, because it was very inappropriate for him to come forward at this time, if he was present, then many people would change their truest thoughts because of him.
It would undoubtedly be much better if only Burns, the prime minister, was to preside over the vote.
While it is also impossible for everyone to vote according to their truest thoughts, the vast majority of Tuvaluan government workers will follow their wishes.
The voting is carried out by secret ballot, but in fact, Li Daniu is very shameless to use some means to count who votes for each vote after the voting is over.
For example, fingerprints on paper, for example, a panoramic camera secretly placed in the conference room, etc.
Because of the small number of people, the voting time was not long, and after the people were assembled, Burns took the stage to speak for five minutes, and then the voting ended in ten minutes.
During this period, Burns even collected the opinions of some Tuvalu government employees who were overseeing the work in New Tuvalu by telephone.
Li Daniu, who had been waiting in the reception room of the palace, got the voting results.
"There are 198 people who choose to follow His Majesty the King to the death, 108 people who choose not to let go, and 182 people who choose to release people."
After Burns finished his report, he knelt down on one leg in shame, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed of you as Prime Minister, and I have not been able to make the hearts of Tuvalu all turn to you." ” "The human heart, the most complicated thing in the world.
Or rather, it's not a thing at all.
Li Daniu felt that this result had been beyond his expectations, and in his mind, it would be good to have dozens of government employees willing to follow in his footsteps, and now, there are still 108 people who choose to resolutely not let go, which is tantamount to being willing to choose to die for the sake of his face.
However, although the result was beyond his expectations, he was still a little sad when he saw that 182 people chose to release them.
Since crossing into this world, he has been born and died in the film world provided by the system, and the billions of fortunes he has made have been almost unreservedly invested in the construction of Tuvalu and the living welfare of the people of Tuvalu.
As a result of Tuvalu, the world's least developed country, its per capita income has reached a level that has caught up with that of developed countries, and will continue to rise even in the future.
With such a dedication, there are still some people who are unwilling to serve him Of the total number of government officials in Tuvalu, there are only 488 people, and nearly 40 per cent of them have chosen to ignore the fact that their Majesty the King has been offended and want to compromise on the merits.
A monarchy, what is the most important thing Is there any other answer than the king?
Unlike Japan, a constitutional monarchy where the emperor can only enjoy benefits and has no rights, it is also different from the United States, where the president is elected by the whole people and works for the people.
Everything about a monarchy, is a king around it.
Although the four words of the lord humiliating the subject and the death of the minister are feudal ideas, they still apply to Tuvalu It has nothing to do with the President of the United States being insulted by the American people, and as long as it does not endanger the President's security, the Government cannot use this to find fault.
But if the king of a monarchy is insulted, it is equivalent to insulting the country of Tuvalu, and according to the laws of Tuvalu, if a Tuvaluan insults the king in public, it is punishable by imprisonment, and the sentence is very long.
Although it was a few foreign journalists who insulted Li Daniu this time, the place where they insulted was in Tuvalu, in front of the people of Tuvalu, in public.
For such a person, what is the fault of giving a sentence of one month of imprisonment?
If it was in the feudal era, if you dared to insult the monarch in public, it would be a big crime to kill your head, and it doesn't matter what kind of foreigner you are Therefore, this time it is not Li Daniu who is making a fuss, but his current identity and status that makes him have to do this.
Today others insult you on your turf, and you greet you with a smile, then tomorrow, someone will dare to ride on your head and.
Moreover, as Tuvalu develops faster and faster, and the technology that Li Daniu gets from the film world becomes more and more advanced, sooner or later, Tuvalu will become a lamb to the slaughter in the eyes of others.
If you don't show your determination and courage to the world earlier, then even if you have the strength, others won't take you too seriously.
This is the same as ordinary people fighting, the horizontal is afraid of the flute, the flute is afraid of the dead, and the lifeless is afraid of neuropathy.
Li Daniu doesn't want to be neurotic, but he also has to show that he has enough courage to dare to say no to the so-called powerful country.
Otherwise, even if Tuvalu had a nuclear weapon, others would not believe that he would dare to launch it.
After strengthening his belief, Li Daniu took a deep breath, although the voting results this time could not see everyone's hearts, but they almost achieved his goal.
"Burns, can I trust you completely?"
At this time, there were only two people in this reception room, Li Da Niu and Burns, hearing Li Da Niu ask such a thing at this time, Burns knew that perhaps the turning point in his life was at this moment.
"Your Majesty, if you need my life, or even my soul, I will offer it without complaint."
Burns knelt down again, and kneeling is not only the highest level of etiquette in Tuvalu, it can be said that it is the highest level of etiquette in almost the whole world.
"Okay" Li Daniu smiled and said, "Then, I need you to help me count all the government employees, which vote they voted." ” Burns raised his head and said calmly: "Your Majesty, in fact, I have done my tricks on the voting paper, and the voting paper that everyone gets is numbered, and when I distribute the voting paper, it is all distributed in order.
So, I can now count all the votes of which of them voted. ” Li Daniu heard Burns's words, and froze, he was also going to get some fingerprint checking equipment for Burns, and then give him the image of the panoramic camera, but he didn't expect that Burns was already fully prepared.
Seeing that Li Daniu was stunned, Burns said: "Your Majesty, I think that when there is an item in the voting option to follow in your footsteps, everyone should choose this one.
Therefore, those who are not willing to swear allegiance to you are not eligible for any benefits you bring to them. ” Li Daniu nodded with satisfaction, Burns's ability, although in the world's group of politicians, is at most at the second-rate level.
But in terms of the loyalty he showed, it was true that all the leaders liked it.
It doesn't matter if the ability is not good, because there are more professional people who can do the specific business.

But the word loyalty is not something that can be cultivated casually, but also requires a sense of identity, a sense of belonging and many other factors.
"Okay, you sit down first.
Tonight, you can do this well, and when the results are counted, give it to me. ” When Burns stood up, he did not sit down, but bowed down and asked, "Your Majesty, I suggest that you also hold a referendum, so that you can test how many Tuvaluans are willing to swear allegiance to you."
I think that as a populace, they themselves are your personal property.
Moreover, not only do they not provide you with taxes, but they also enjoy the benefits that you bring, so they should serve you even more. ” Li Daniu waved his hand and said: "For the people, there is no need to vote, because I need them to express their position directly, and at the press conference tomorrow morning, I will say my plan, and when the time comes, it will depend on how they choose." ” t1706231537:
