Chapter 117 Exile of Pottery Shards
1080 Universe. Elia City State.
[Ding! The process of "Porcelain Exile Law" is launched]
[Five Hundred-Person Council initiates a proposal: Will the Citizens' Congress need to hold a voting for exile of pottery... to help the city-state get rid of people with too much influence and exile political families with tyrant ambitions]
[Elia Citizens Congress passed by 8,033 votes to implement the "Porcelain Exile Act"]
[Consul Zeno, exiled to Corsica, the exile period is 10 years. The exiled person has no right to defend himself and must leave the city-state within 10 days]

Nobunagaki logged in to the third generation of Tecumse while complaining about this idiot's decree.
When Zeno wanted to deal with this decree, Nobunagata strongly opposed it.
The reason given by Zeno is: "Every citizen can express his political opinions and wishes through pottery, which has reached a broad consensus on the Elia city-state."
"It is conducive to eliminating officials who do not protect the interests of citizens and oppose behaviors that harm the interests of citizens."
"At the same time, it can restrict the behavior of citizens with lofty prestige and eliminate unstable factors, which will help the stability of the country and the maintenance of normal order."
…………
Zeno's experience may be the fate of the reformers.
Whether in the East or the West, reformers who insisted on being sharp have no good ending in the past dynasties.
For example, Bisman of West Asia, Persian Prime Minister Amir Nizam.
The exile of the pottery exile law does not have any additional punishment for the exiled.
Compared with those reformers who cut halved, shattered, destroyed the clan, and crushed the bones and ashes.
Zeno is already in misfortune.
…………
When Zeno was exiled to vote, he was asked by an illiterate citizen to write Zeno's name on the pottery piece and throw it into a rattan basket.
Zeno wrote his name on the pottery and asked the man why he wanted to exile the consul.
The man answered with his nose and said, "No, why. I am a resident of the border area and usually shepherds sheep in the countryside outside the city. I don't know this person at all, nor have I heard of his speech."
"But he is called everywhere the righteous, the savior of the city-state of Elia, the great reformer."
"I'm really annoyed."
Zeno: “…”
………………………………
Exile period. Seventh day.
After Zeno finished his official duties, he began to go home to pack his luggage. In the past two years as the consul, the economic situation of the aristocratic philosopher has not improved.
The money that Nobunaga Hitoshi sponsored Zeno was used by him to redeem slaves—the Elia debt slaves who were sold to the Gentiles.
In addition to simple rattan beds, clay pots and tableware, Zeno's home also had mountain of papyrus pieces.
Papyrus is a writing carrier widely used by the ancient Egyptians. It is made of the stems of papyrus that were abundant in the Nile Delta at that time.
In 3000 BC, the ancient Egyptians began to use papyrus and exported this specialty to ancient Mediterranean civilization areas such as ancient Greece, and even far away inland Europe and West Asia.
The study of ancient manuscripts written on papyrus, or papyridia, was a basic tool for ancient Greek and Roman historians.
…………
The tobacco trade prosperity brought by Nobunaga's handmade cigarettes did not bring wealth to Zeno.
Although, according to the laws of the city-state of Elia, all public offices are unpaid, and the consul is no exception.
However, it was still easy for a consul to divide some soup and improve life between the tobacco trade between Elia City-State and Nobunaga Tobacco Co., Ltd.
…………
The third generation of Tecumse came to visit Zeno with the dishes.
He took out several clay pots, wooden plates and knife and forks from the Jingteng basket.
As a cooking puppet, the third generation of Tecumsey quickly completed the arrangement of these [Space-Time and Space Delivery] dishes.
On the table is a Naples-style pasta, fried pork chops, Japanese salad, and the last small clay pot is miso soup.
…………
Zeno took a sip of Miso soup and began to cut the hot fried pork chops, which started to taste.
The third generation of Tecumse asked: "The origin of this pottery exile method is a square speech. Did you mention the harm of cigarettes?"
Zeno nodded, and he sprinkled vinegar on top of the Japanese salad, started stirring, and replied, "I saw it on the TV of Yangquan Restaurant."
Zeno is talking about the nhk evening news program "nhk7 News". The ban on smoking in RB in 1980 was a big social issue, and this program is also criticizing the harm of tobacco.
…………
Zeno took a large mouthful of Japanese salad and said: "The news says that the disease caused by smoking costs 165 million yen per year in the Ministry of Health, causing 100,000 deaths."
"Don't worry. The average lifespan of the classical world cannot reach the age of outbreak caused by cigarettes..."
The average lifespan of the ancient Greeks was estimated to be between 20 and 30 years old, while the ancient Romans were between 15 and 24 years old.
Zeno began to deal with the Naples-style pasta in the wooden plate: "What's going on in the future? One day the average life expectancy will increase. I released Pandora's magic box in this parallel universe."
Third generation Tecumse explained: "If these 100,000 (the number of smoke deaths per year) survive and die, they need more pensions and social security than medical expenses..."
"So from the Ministry of Finance, it's better to maintain the current mortality rate. Cigarettes are also a big sponsor of various charitable causes..."
Zeno said seriously: "We are talking about 100,000 deaths every year!"
Third generation Tecumse: "70% of public health funds come from tobacco tax!"
“The medical system can save so many lives. It is because these smokers voluntarily sacrifice themselves to save their compatriots.”
"Smokers are the benefactors of the country!!"
Zeno: “…”
………………………………
【Ding! Two Stars!】
【Ding! Diner's review: Naples-style pasta tastes great, the fried pork chop is a bit greasy, the miso soup is salty...】
Zeno finished eating the Naples-style pasta and wiped his mouth: "According to the city-state law, it will take ten years to return to the city-state next time. During this period, Elia City-state will ask you."
The third generation of Tecumse asked, "You should be a tyrant. The Apache mercenaries will help you get rid of those insects..."
Zeno lit a Nobunaga handmade cigarette, shook his head, spit out a cigarette, and said, "Ingratitude is the characteristic of the great city-state."
【Handmade cigarettes】
【Ding! Cuisine·Awakening: Reduce stress]

This plane, Yangquan Restaurant.
【Ding! Nobunagaki logged out! The third generation of cooking puppet!】
Nobunaga Hitoshi sat on the seat, opened a can of Ebisu Sapporo beer for himself, and drank half of it in one breath.
Yamaguchi Momoe's spokesperson incident led to a comprehensive upgrade of the system.
The first thing I did to complete the special effects of cooking was actually "Nobunaga's handmade cigarette".
As the chef at Yangquan Restaurant, Nobunaga Hitoshi is somewhat embarrassed.
…………
Speaking of brand spokesperson...
Ishikaya is going to launch a new drink in summer.
The hot soup dish of sauerkraut bone soup is really not competitive in summer. Nobunagata plans to promote pineapple ice as a summer drink for Ishikaya.
Nobunagata put down the can and called.
Chapter completed!
