Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

That's right, Fan Shaozeng first contacted the capital, because he felt that this kind of matter was a matter of people's livelihood, and he should go directly to the big men in the capital.

However, after he found Fanmin, he called the capital. Until now, seven days have passed, but there has been no reply from the capital.

Fan Shaozeng thought with his toes and knew that it must be the old men in the capital who were making the same mistake again.

They looked down upon, or in other words, did not take the issue of the people seriously, so they delayed it again and again.

After all, this is not the first time this has happened. The Dongchuan Army before was also disliked by others.

But the problem is that now he has to be responsible for continuing to drag south, and he also has to consider the issue of civilians, and he is also very anxious.

In addition, the representatives of the Fanmin were already in Mengka City, and the imperial court had not given them a charter for negotiation, so he had no way to negotiate with the Fanmin representatives.

It is impossible to leave the representatives of the people in Monk City all the time and ignore them.

Therefore, Fan Shaozeng reported the matter to Lin Yi, hoping that Lin Yi could give some advice.

Just when Liu Xiangnong was about to give a few more words of advice, a staff officer ran over quickly, with a telegram in his hand.

"Commander, the prince is in urgent need of a telegram!" The staff officer ran to Fan Shaozeng and handed over the telegram in his hand.

Fan Shaozeng quickly took it, unfolded the message and began to read it carefully.

A moment later, an expression of disbelief appeared on Fan Shaozeng's face.

"You got it? What did the prince say?" Liu Xiangnong looked at Fan Shaozeng's sudden expression and asked curiously.

"Read it personally." With that, Fan Shaozeng handed the telegram in his hand to Liu Xiangnong.

Liu Xiangnong glanced at ten lines and quickly read the contents of the telegram. Then a trace of weirdness appeared on his face, but then the expression on his face became relieved.

"Your Majesty is really far-sighted and can think of such a solution." Liu Xiangnong looked admiring.

"Do you understand?" Fan Shaozeng looked at Liu Xiangnong and asked.

"Of course I understand, or else I can tell you that the prince is far-sighted?" Liu Xiangnong said with a smile.

"Then you can analyze it for me, but I can't understand it? I always feel that if you do it for a young prince, it's a waste of money."

"Besides, what the prince said is similar to the previous dynasty's strategy against Yizhou. I don't know what's so clever about it." Fan Shaozeng shook his fat head, expressing that he didn't understand.

"It's true that you are Fan Ha'er." Liu Xiangnong joked.

Fan Shaozeng was not annoyed. After all, in his opinion, the nickname "Ha'er" was a compliment to him, showing that he was upright.

"Speak quickly, or I will smoke your box of cigars tonight."

As he said that, Fan Shaozeng blinked. He had long wanted to try Liu Xiangnong's Cuban cigar, which was given to him by someone abroad.

Hearing what Fan Shaozeng said, Liu Xiangnong didn't dare to tease Fan Shaozeng anymore, because he knew that he, Fan Shaozeng, could really do such a thing.

He had treasured that box of cigars for more than ten years. Every time he just smelled it, he couldn't bear to smoke it.

If Fan Shaozeng, a person who doesn't understand cigars, were allowed to smoke, he would probably cry to death in the room.

"Okay, Commander, stop joking. Let me analyze it for you."

"There's not much else to say. They are all very common conditions."

"Thinking about building a city on Yizhou Island, doing business with the people, etc. These are all old-fashioned things."

"What I want to talk about are three key points. The first is to govern the people by the people, the second is to teach technology and open factories, and the third is to allow the people to take scientific examinations and select scholars."

"Among them, the second one is easy to understand, which is that Daxia will increase financial and technological support for Yizhou Island. This will allow them to build factories and make some of the island's specialties into commodities and sell them to Daxia."

"In the past, this kind of factory was controlled by the imperial court, and the profits were made by the imperial court. At most, these ordinary people could only get the price of one raw material."

"The money is pitifully low, so the benefits of the goods are all taken away by the court."

"But what the prince wants now is that the empire will give them money and technology, so that they can produce their own products and sell them in the interior of the empire."

"For example, the Empire's largest investment in Yizhou Island was the canning factory, which mainly produced canned fruits and canned fish."

"The previous imperial merchants purchased fresh fruits or sea fish from the people, then processed them by the imperial merchants, and then sold them to the empire."

"In this way, the price difference of more than ten times will go to the imperial merchants."

"But this is no longer the case. The empire provides money and technology, allowing the people to produce their own goods, and then they sell them in the interior of the empire."

"In this case, the benefits are taken away by the people. This increases the income of the people by several levels."

"People are greedy. If this kind of lucrative job is given to the people, how can they oppose the empire's rule on Yizhou Island?"

"With such a foundation, the next two moves of the prince can be called classics!"

"Government by the people and allowing the people to take scientific examinations and select scholars can be said to be two conditions that complement each other."

"Although our scientific examination is not like that of the previous dynasty and only relies on stereotyped writing, Daxia writing and various theories are also one of the important foundations. As long as these people want to participate in the scientific examination, they will definitely learn our culture .”

"Think about our dynasty before Daxia. Where are all the alien races on the grasslands? For example, among those familiar people in the empire, which one of them did not accept the culture of the empire and became what it is now?"

"In the past, the empire asked them to integrate their cultures, but every time it was not done with a knife? But now, the prince has raised the condition of selecting soldiers. It is estimated that those students will definitely cooperate with the empire."

"Finally, let's talk about the first point. With these foundations in place, we can then select those students who are willing to accept the empire as officials and let them manage the people."

"With these people of Fanmin origin acting as a buffer between the empire and the Fanmin people, it must be easier for those Fanmin people to accept the empire's rule on Yizhou Island."

"In this way, within three generations, these people will become mature people and even become imperial people."

"At that time, even if the empire wants to withdraw from Yizhou Island, the people will not agree,"

"And Yizhou Island will also become a province of the empire and an inseparable part of the empire." Liu Xiangnong carefully analyzed for Fan Shaozeng.

When Fan Shaozeng heard Liu Xiangnong's analysis, he suddenly felt enlightened and called Lin Yi a genius, how could he come up with such a method.

With just three days of strategy, the problem of the foreign people that the empire had not solved for more than two hundred years could be easily solved.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go. Hurry up and follow me to see the representatives of the people. We will start discussing this matter with them now!" Fan Shaozeng greeted with excitement and walked outside.

Liu Xiangnong looked at Fan Shaozeng who was wearing only a vest and walked out to prepare for a discussion with the people. He quickly grabbed Fan Shaozeng's military uniform and chased after him.
