At the rally, Ercaoyi and Dan Yunhe chatted a lot about officialdom. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When he returned to his room to rest, Ercaiichi lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and frowned. In her concept, officials should be served by good people, and bad people should not be officials, but should be like her, being a simple bandit, specializing in bad things such as burning, killing and looting.

In the past, she had always believed that the corruption and deterioration of the Riya Shrine was entirely the fault of the previous Great Shrine Maiden. Because the former Great Witch was not a good person, the Riya Shrine was also damaged by her. In addition, Rimi Shrine is not a regular force in the first place, and they have no experience as officials, and when their strength is strong, their wings are stiff, and their hearts are inflated, they will naturally be like ordinary nouveau riche and do some stupid things.

In Ercaoyi's mind, officials are decent and responsible. She has been dealing with the official army for nearly a hundred years, and some of them have been face-to-face battles for decades. At that time, she had no contact with magistrates, so she took it for granted that the officials were as conscientious and responsible, decent and tough as those officers who led troops out to suppress bandits.

After coming to Shaobei Town, Ercaoyi came into contact with the magistrate for the first time. But she only came into contact with the lowest level of officials, the tax collectors who were responsible for collecting and inspecting taxes. Shaobei Town is a commercial town, where taxes are mainly cash, and a complete and efficient tax system has already been formed. The status and popularity of the merchants here are very high, and the tax collectors do not dare to blackmail the merchants at all, so they can only do things according to the rules, so the tax collectors here will give people the feeling of serious work.

In addition, after the five northern towns were ceded to the Bujin Republic, their administration, finances, and military affairs were all in charge of the Bujin people, and the locals could not interfere at all. After the five northern towns were returned, their administration, finances, and military affairs were all directly transferred to the Kingdom of Byrons, and the locals still could not interfere with the takeover sent by the City of Byrons. These local officials were all from the capital and were die-hard loyalists of the Byrons family, so none of the rebel forces in the five northern towns involved local officials.

Therefore, after coming to Shaobei Town, Ercaoyi still felt that the official was good. But after getting to know Dan Yunhe, Ercaoyi's worldview was subverted. In the dialogue, Dan Yunhe called this phenomenon "as black as a crow in the world", and said that "there is no one who is not greedy", and even said that "the royal family is the biggest corrupt official", which made Ercaoyi almost laugh.

Ercaoyi has lived for more than 100 years, and she has never seen anyone throw their own money into other people's money bags. The economic model of the Kingdom of Byron was public, and even people like Ercaiichi who didn't care much about politics knew that at least half of the money in the treasury was private property of the royal family, and most of the money in the treasury was spent by the people. This kind of behavior of spending one's own money for everyone has been ridiculed as "extremely stupid" by other monarchies, and sometimes even Nikusaichi thinks so.

The Kingdom of Byron is a small country, and the smaller the country, the easier it is to control. The operation ideas of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom Bank cannot be played at all in large countries, because the interests of too many people are involved, and if they do not do well, they will become alone. With strong foreign aid, the Byrons family could eliminate all objections by force, and then directly turn the entire kingdom into private property.

At that time, the Yama Shrine used a similar technique to turn all the land, people, and resources on Mt. Ryami into the private property of the shrine. It's just that the nature of the Satomi Shrine is special, so it has not been further centralized, but has turned the entire Satomi Shrine into a privileged class. The shrine maidens of Rimi Shrine can even kill people at will in Mt. Rimi, which is rare to happen even at a contract shrine that once deified itself.

If the shrine maidens of the contract shrine want to kill people, they still have to borrow the hands of Emperor Ira or officials, and they rarely kill people with their own hands, because this will affect their reputation. At that time, Ding'an City had a population of two million, and even if three or five hundred people came up to the mountain in anger, the contract shrine that had completely lost the ability to protect itself would not be able to resist it. So even if he has deified himself, the contract shrine still has to find Emperor Ira as a shield.

The Rima Shrine controls Mt. Rimami, relying on the evil witch and the shrine's war witch. If you want to control a place as big as Limi Mountain, these combat forces are more than enough. Later, the evil witch got out of control, and the Rima Shrine still controlled Mt. Rima with only the war witch.

Even before the signing of the military alliance treaty with the Elt Kingdom, Byron had the Republic of Bujin to the south and the Kingdom of Egus to the west, with a total population of more than two million and a total population of more than six million, and with the cooperation of these two allies, it was too easy to completely control a small country with a population of only one hundred million.

Moreover, the Byrons family was not only an army of allies, they had a regular army of 10,000 people completely out of production before they annexed Kamijin County. There are 600,000 Leiting people in the country to balance the Ira people, as long as you first take the Ira people, after completely subduing the Ira, then subdue the Hope City of the Ryating people in turn, and finally subdue the Liangyue City of the Tairong people. As for the town of Buta, it was the town of the Ilibians, and the relationship between the Ilibians and the Byrons family was so good that there was no need to do anything to them.

If it were another family, by the 140th year of the new calendar, they would have turned most of the land and industry in the country into private property, and there was no need to engage in any Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and Kingdom Bank. When the time comes, you can rent the land to the peasants and the property to the merchants, and you can collect rent and taxes, and you can make a lot of money by lying down and sleeping.

Therefore, the approach of the Byrons family is not understood. People abroad don't understand, and people at home don't understand either. Many people think that the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Bank are used by the Byron family to collect money, and they believe that the reason why the Byron family recharges the money they earn into the treasury is either to make a second investment so that they can make more money in the future. Either it is to enrich military spending and enhance its own strength, in short, it will definitely not be done for the sake of the common people.

However, the Byrons family did it for the sake of the common people. Maier wanted to change the economic situation in the country and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor, but he didn't want to use too drastic measures, so he asked the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Bank to compete with the class that had to be suppressed, and after victory, they would buy each other's properties at a reasonable price, and they would not let the other party suffer.

Mayr's goal was to completely nationalize agriculture and stabilize the food supply. The commercial part was nationalized, the chamber of commerce was completely nationalized, and the necessary materials and strategic materials must be controlled by the royal family to improve the efficiency of resource utilization. We will completely ban usury, establish reliable mortgage and bailout loan mechanisms, popularize basic education, improve the quality of the people per capita, and so on.

One of the biggest obstacles to achieving these goals is one of the ultimate beneficiaries. In fact, the repressed class is also one of the beneficiaries, as long as they accept the acquisition and take the money to the city for a few days, they will find many opportunities for transformation. The Kingdom Chamber of Commerce needs a source of goods, as long as the goods are produced according to the standards of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, the goods will be marketable, and it is a good choice to be a manufacturer.

The Kingdom Chamber of Commerce has never received anything at a lower price, except that when the producers under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce supply to other merchants or groups of merchants, they need to increase the price by two to three times the original price according to the contract signed with the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. However, if you want to become a supplier of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, you must accept the supervision of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, and sometimes you have to hand over the production technology to the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. The Kingdom Chamber of Commerce does not want to produce technology for its own use, they will hand it over to the Ministry of Scientific Research, which will evaluate it, and if there is room for improvement in the technology, they will return the improved technology to the manufacturer.

There are a considerable number of producers who do not believe in such a good thing, they refuse to hand over their production technology, and they do not accept the supervision of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, so they cannot receive orders from the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. The products produced by the producers under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce are of high quality and low price, and the market competitiveness is extremely strong, and the sales of the products of the producers under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce will be greatly affected.

The goods produced in Shaobei Town are known for being cheap, but cheap also has the disadvantage of being cheap, that is, the quality is not very good. Taking charcoal as an example, the charcoal produced in Shaobei Town has sand in it, and if you are not careful, you will draw a hole in the paper when you are not careful, and the color of the words written is gray, which is not very good-looking. This is not the case with charcoal pencils produced by manufacturers under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, and the writing is black and shiny, which is very eye-catching. The price of these two charcoal pens in the market is 1 Bunira, if you were a customer, what kind of charcoal would you buy?

The same goes for stationery. The stationery produced in Shaobei Town is rough and sallow, and some of the letterheads have obvious plant debris and other impurities. This is not the case with stationery produced by producers under the kingdom's injury control, which has a smooth surface and a slightly yellowish color, and impurities are barely visible unless you look closely. The price of these two types of stationery in the market is 2 bun iraa (100 sheets), if you were a customer, what kind of stationery would you buy?

The Kingdom Chamber of Commerce did not deliberately lower the price when selling the goods, and their purchase price was not high in the first place. Manufacturers did not deliberately lower prices when shipping, because their production costs were not high. Moreover, with the same shipping price, the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce and the producers under its control were more profitable than the merchant groups and producers in the town of Shaobei, which was the advantage brought about by technological improvements.

However, merchants or groups of merchants, as well as manufacturers, who did not know the truth, insisted that the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce was relying on the support of the royal family to deliberately lower prices, and wanted to engage in dumping and monopolize the market. What makes people laugh and cry is that the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce has made things clear when they are negotiating the acquisition, but they just don't believe it.

The producers under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce are basically centralized assembly line production, which Liu Xiu named "factory production mode". Liu Xiu occasionally goes to the Tairong goblin settlement to discuss technology with the Tairong goblins, and learns a lot of good things from it. Every time he returned, the scientific research department would come up with a large number of new production equipment proposals, and after these plans were put into production, the new equipment would be sent to the manufacturers under the control of the kingdom in the form of lease. The new equipment brings higher production efficiency and production quality, which means lower production costs. Production costs are reduced, and profits are naturally increased.

It is a pity that there are not many manufacturers who are willing to accept the conditions of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, and most of the industries under the control of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce are now operated by the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce itself. The technology and equipment are all provided by the Ministry of Scientific Research, as long as it is something that the Ministry of Scientific Research can come up with, the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce has been put into production, and the sales are quite good. The Kingdom Chamber of Commerce even re-evaluated Maier's original plan, thinking that there was no need to recruit people to join, and they could handle everything by themselves.

In fact, Maier knew this, he just didn't want to give up on those people.

If it weren't for the rebel forces coming to the door first, Ercaoyi would have been under the command of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. After the Byronic kingdom became abundant in grain, Ercaoyi began to buy high-quality grain from the royal family's farmland to make wine. After changing the raw materials, the taste of the sake has also changed, but after the taste change, the taste of the two grass and the sake of the sake has become more mellow, and the evaluation of the sake is higher.

After using the grain produced in the royal family's farmland, Ercaiichi recognized the things produced by the royal family, and now almost everything in the content brewery has been replaced by the products of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. The workers of the winery also speak highly of these products because they are really good quality. Although there are better quality products, the cost performance of the two is completely different. Compared to the high-quality products sold by the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, the prices of other high-quality products are too high.

Some of the rebel forces in Shaobei Town once suspected Ercaoyi because of this incident, and Ercaoyi explained that the goal of the contentment winery was very large, and in order to protect itself, it was better to use more things sold by the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, so as not to be targeted by the Supervision Council. This statement is very reasonable, so everyone believes her words.

In fact, Ercaiichi never understood why these guys rebelled. As long as you accept change, there will be a better future, the people of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce made it very clear, but they just didn't believe it. She also didn't understand why the local officials of the Byronic Kingdom were corrupt, and she didn't understand why the high-ranking officials of the city of Limi rebelled. As long as everyone performs their duties and does their job well, everyone will live a happy life. The Byrons had already made these things clear to the people, but these corrupt or rebel officials obviously didn't believe them, otherwise they wouldn't have done these stupid things.

The success of the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce is in front of you, high-quality goods and a stable life are in front of you, and the Byrons family has proved with their own actions that they have taken the lead in abiding by these principles, which is also evidence in front of them.

With so much evidence in front of them, why don't they believe it?

If Riya Shrine had had a leader like Maier back then, it would have been absolutely impossible for Nikusaichi to embark on the path of crime. It's a pity that there was no good leader at the Riya Shrine back then, and Nikusaichi and her companions were not properly guided, so they did wrong things, and then made mistakes again and again.

Now there is a leader who can correctly guide his subordinates and the people in front of him, but his subordinates and the people refuse to accept the correct guidance and desperately want to drill into the dead end. She was tempted to pry their heads open to see what was inside. If it wasn't a brain, would a creature with this human-like body still be human?
