The common people were actually very easy to satisfy.
In certain respects—not including their desire for wealth—this specifically referred to some of their spiritual needs.
When Catherine appeared before the public the next day with a "Lizard Catherine Lizard" brooch pinned to her chest, many people were swept up in a frenzy!
Their faces flushed with excitement as they expressed the elation in their hearts to those around them. All of it stemmed from that somewhat comical-looking brooch.
Five yuan apiece, with a cupronickel base and some cheap materials piled on top to form a Lizard Catherine breathing flames.
The little things could be seen in many places, but this was the first time one had appeared on Catherine.
Before her, the Federal Presidents had always maintained their composure, never allowing themselves to make a fool of themselves. They were even reluctant to get too close to the people.
They could not be sure they could be so good at making conversation. After all, they stood at opposite ends of the pyramid, people from two different worlds.
There had once been a case where a president warmly received an ordinary person from the lower classes, yet was unable to carry on a conversation with them the entire time.
Mr. President would never worry about failing to earn ten yuan in a day's work, but ordinary people would.
They not only worried about failing to earn ten yuan, but also about whether they would have stable, secure work tomorrow, the day after, and in the future, and whether they would be able to afford food.
The president seemed close to the people, yet was far from them. That was the Federation's most genuine state of affairs.
Yet Catherine had changed all that, at least judging from the willingness she had shown.
