Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

"Only when the population moves can there be prosperity. If the population cannot move, it will be lifeless. In the past, our system was that people who left their homes ten miles away would need documents from the government, otherwise they would be arrested as refugees. But now our policy needs to be changed. ”

Ning Fan said with emotion.

Ning Fan was not in a hurry to go to Blackwater City, but walked around Zhuzhou in the afternoon. Accompanied by Wang Tianjiang, Ning Fan rode a horse and put on a cowhide jacket specially made by the Ministry of War.

After putting on this dress, Ning Fan found that although this dress was very suitable for the climate here, the style and style were too clumsy, and Ning Fan suddenly felt inspired.

"Is there a leatherworker in town who can help me make a custom-made outfit?"

Ning Fan took out the drawings and handed them to Wang Tianjiang.

All the details and dimensions of this dress were clearly drawn. Wang Tianjiang was a little surprised when he glanced at the dress drawing on this paper.

He has already heard about Ning Fan's erudition and knowledge. Ning Fan is not only a great poet, a great writer, a great writer, and a great inventor, but now he has a new title called fashion designer.

"Well, Your Majesty, this dress looks weird, but it also has a bit of wildness and madness. It should look good on you."

"But I want to know what the two triangular pockets on these two sides are for?"

Wang Tianjiang asked curiously.

"That's a holster, used to hold my musket! In this vast land in the west, there will definitely be chaos in the future. After all, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, which will definitely breed crime. In the future, everyone will carry a gun. certain."

The vast land in the northern part of the country reminded Ning Fan of the cowboy wasteland in the American West before he traveled. Ning Fan has always been partial to cowboy culture. Now that he has come to this northern wasteland, Ning Fan can't help but have a special feeling. , as if he had created a wild west world with his own hands.

Under the setting sun, even the grass was dyed golden, and Wang Tianjiang hurriedly took Ning Fan's drawings to find the most famous cobbler in the town.

Hearing that these were clothes custom-made by the emperor, several cobblers in the town did not dare to neglect them. They worked overnight and worked with great care. At noon the next day, they made Ning Fan's specially made western denim jacket.

Specially made riding boots, as well as a pair of overalls and cowhide vest, Ning Fan's weird look after putting it on made even Huang Yumeng's eyes widen.

"Your Majesty, this dress looks strangely harmonious on you, but it seems a little inappropriate."

Wang Tianjiang said tactfully.

Ning Fan just tried it on and then took off his clothes. Being a western cowboy was just a dream for Ning Fan. The reality was that he had no chance to do that kind of thing.

"If you want to stay on this land, I will give you this set of clothes."

Ning Fan reluctantly gave this set of jeans to Wang Tianjiang.

The time on the road was always cheerful and short. With the train speeding by, after spending a day and a night, Ning Fan finally arrived at the northernmost city, Blackwater City.

At this time, more than 500,000 people gathered in Heishui City, including 200,000 border guards and the rest 300,000 workers. These workers worked in three shifts day and night. They built a tower around Heishui City. An impenetrable war fortress.

This line of defense was constructed according to Ning Fan's drawings. It was all made of reinforced concrete. With modern technology and the power of gunpowder, it was impossible to destroy this fortress. In other words, as long as there were people in this fortress, it could not be breached from the outside.

With this fortress in place, Blackwater City would be considered impregnable, and the vast northern world would be completely included in Dakang's territory.

"Your Majesty, that English consultant has been brought to you! His name is Lawrence, and he speaks a bird language that no one can understand."

Xiao Zhong clapped his hands, and soon a soldier brought a foreigner in ragged clothes.

This foreigner has blond hair and a big beard, but he looks arrogant.

He was still struggling violently under the push of the soldiers, but when he saw Ning Fan in the hall, Lawrence suddenly became quiet.

"Mr. Lawrence, I am the emperor of Dakang."

Ning Fan made an opening statement in fluent English, which immediately stunned Lawrence. He did not expect that this well-off young emperor could speak the language of his country so fluently.

Even Xiao Chong and Wang Tianjiang on the side were a little surprised. They did not expect that their emperor could also speak this kind of bird language.

"Dear Your Majesty the Emperor, I am just a businessman doing business in the Rakshasa Kingdom. Your soldiers barbarically captured me here, whipped me and didn't give me food. This is your country of great prosperity and etiquette. What did you do?"

After seeing Ning Fan, Lawrence was no longer as arrogant as before and instantly transformed into a gentleman.

However, Ning Fan sneered in his heart because he knew very well that this Englishman was just a wolf in sheep's clothing.

In fact, these Westerners are fierce and ruthless at heart, and they are plundering bandits.

These people talk about benevolence, justice and morality, but they are engaged in bandits and robbers. To reason with such people is to play the harp to an ox.

"Mr. Lawrence, I am afraid that your investment in the Rakshasa Kingdom will be lost. I hope you can go back and tell your king that we, Da Kang, have no intention of being enemies with the British. This world is big enough to accommodate you, the British, and us." Dakang develops harmoniously with each other.”

"We don't have to fight to the death for an unnecessary piece of cake, because the cake is big enough for both of us to eat."

Ning Fan looked at Lawrence with a smile.

Lawrence was completely overjoyed after hearing Ning Fan's words, because he could tell from Ning Fan's words that Ning Fan wanted to let him go.

"Dear Your Majesty the Emperor, I will convey your message to our Emperor when I return. Can I leave now?"

Lawrence politely took off his hat and bowed to Ning Fan.

"Of course, Mr. Lawrence. In fact, you are not a prisoner. You can leave at any time."

Ning Fan looked at Lawrence calmly.

Killing Lawrence is meaningless to Ning Fan. Putting Lawrence back and letting them convey their meaning has practical significance.

Seeing that Ning Fan was about to let Lawrence go as the culprit as soon as he arrived, Xiao Chong and Wang Tianjiang became a little anxious.

After Lawrence turned around and left, Xiao Chong said to Ning Fan: "Your Majesty, this Lawrence is the culprit who provoked the war between Dakang and the Rakshasa people. If you let him go so easily, wouldn't you be taking advantage of him?"
