"These are Meng Kang's shortcomings, but do you know what is the deadliest of them?" Xiao Qiang looked at the layers of terraced rice fields halfway up the mountain in front of him, and said loudly, "The most fatal thing is the lack of knowledge and the shortcomings of the ancient system. If people's cognition and concepts do not change, it will be extremely difficult for Meng Dare to achieve something. Of course, these fatal factors are deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people, and if they want to be removed, they cannot be quickly cut through the mess, but must be slowly guided and changed by environmental factors. ”

Meng Bingling looked puzzled, obviously she was curious about what Xiao Qiang said.

"Huaxia used to be poor, and many mountainous terrains were no different from Meng Kang's, but why can the old look be changed to a new one just by developing over the years? The fundamental reason is that the Chinese people have found the right way. Xiao Qiang pointed to the narrow village road in this mountain village, "I'll talk about the road first, the Chinese people have long put forward a truth, if you want to get rich first build the road, the road is not smooth, the transportation and logistics will not be able to reach, the businessman will not be able to do business with the people, take what they need, give the people what they want, the two sides of the transaction will not be successful, just like the blood of the human body blood vessels can not circulate, which will naturally cause the human body to ossify, and at worst death." ”

"I know that, but how easy is it to build roads?" Meng Bingling sighed, "Meng Dare is mountainous, and it takes a lot of money to build roads, which is really too difficult with our financial level here." ”

"Twenty or thirty years ago, there was no expressway in Huaxia, and the government at that time was also suffering from the lack of funds to build it. But then the world's longest kilometer highway was built, why is that? Xiao Qiang said seriously, "This is because Huaxia has introduced private assets, and the government will take the lead in building a joint venture to build roads, and the tolls after the construction will be proportionally shared, and the money from private assets will be paid off in a few years, and then the money will be earned by the road, which is a two-pronged thing, you can consider it." ”

Meng Bingling smiled bitterly, "Huaxia has been stable for decades, of course, there are businessmen who are willing to build roads with the government, but Meng Dare not only has few cars, but also the war is chaotic, so I am afraid it is not so easy to build roads." ”

Xiao Qiang nodded, what Meng Bingling said was indeed a problem. As long as Meng Kang is not far from the flames of war for a day, it is simply a dream to attract businessmen to invest in infrastructure construction. A question occurred to him. Meng Kang is indeed very chaotic, but compared with Huaxia, it does have some natural advantages. He became the Holy Lord inexplicably, and it is very likely that he will become King Meng Kang, he originally had no feelings for this land, nor did he have any interest, but now he gradually does not think so.

Everyone is selfish, and no one is afraid of having less money. Now Xiao Qiang has a great opportunity in front of him, he will become the new leader of Meng Kang, not to mention, this land can even become his back garden! For a businessman, no matter how successful he is in the Huaxia Kingdom, if he does not have a place to live and settle down, and there is no safe place to retreat, then once he is defeated in the business war or even involved in the political power struggle, he will have nothing.

However, if Meng Kang will become Xiao Qiang's rear base, he will have no worries, even if he is involved in the power struggle in Huaxia Kingdom and loses, he can at least escape back to Meng Kang in order to make a comeback. As the saying goes, if you have food in your hands and don't panic in your heart, if Meng Dang can really become his last guarantee, then he will not be restrained in the face of some fierce struggles. And what is more likely is that if he can correctly lead Meng Kang to actively develop the economy and people's livelihood, and make this a rich country within a country, then wouldn't he, the king, get more lucrative benefits?

Of course, Xiao Qiang's ambition was based on the premise that the allies could withstand the attack of the Indo-Burmese army, and forced them to negotiate so that Meng would have absolute autonomy. Now the two sides are fighting fiercely, and if the Allied forces are defeated, that idea will be wiped out, let alone mention.

In other words, the first condition for whether he can have Meng Kang is that the allied army cannot withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of the Indo-Burmese army. Thinking of this, Xiao Qiang suddenly spoke up, "Bingling, where did Elder Peng's allies get their usual arms and funds from?" ”

Meng Bingling was stunned by Xiao Qiang's question, she obviously couldn't keep up with Xiao Qiang's jumping thinking, just now she was talking about road repair, and in a blink of an eye, she asked about the unrelated military situation, and it was a little difficult to adapt to anyone for a while.

"That...... The salaries and munitions of the allied army were previously funded by the royalists, but now after the significant expansion of the army, the royalists' funds are dwarfed by them, and they already have to rely on the finances and taxes of the Mengkang region. The issue of military salaries and food is better said, but the most important thing is arms. Meng Bingling came back to her senses after a while and explained, "The previous arms of the Allied forces mainly relied on seizure and smuggling, and originally Meng Kang still had his own arsenal to produce guns and bullets, but during the occupation of Baicheng, the equipment had been removed by the Indo-Burmese. Fortunately, the security regiment of the Baicheng Institute still has a batch of arms, which can be used for the time being. ”

Xiao Qiang nodded, it seems that the biggest problem of the allied army is not money and food, but weapons and ammunition. He suddenly thought that he had a good relationship with the Jiang family and the Ye family in the capital, Jiang Qintian was the head of the group army, and Ye Lingxi's father was the person in charge of the Second Division of the General Staff, if they were willing to contact the relationship to deliver a batch of arms and ammunition to Meng Kang, then the strength of the allied army would undoubtedly have a qualitative leap!

However, the idea is very good, but Xiao Qiang also knows that it is too difficult. Not to mention that Huaxia prohibits arms smuggling, and Meng Kang belongs to India and Burma, Huaxia has never interfered in the internal affairs of other countries, and the most important thing is whether Meng Kang has no interests in Huaxia. In this world, there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests, and if you want Huaxia to help, you must have interests that attract it.

"Xiao Qiang, I don't know much about what you're talking about, but isn't it time to enter the village? It's not a problem to stand at the entrance of the village like this, and you can talk about these things after you go back? Hao Ziyan next to her couldn't help but speak, because the three of them had been delayed for a long time at the entrance of the village, and she was in a hurry to see Wang Yumo and Sun Renjun, so she was naturally a little anxious.

Xiao Qiang smiled and nodded, and temporarily restrained his ambitions. He decided to contact Huaxia after returning to Huaxia Kingdom, in case he could really get the arms of Huaxia Kingdom, it would naturally be a great thing for Xiao Qiang, who wanted to control Meng Dare to become his own territory.

Walking into the village, because Hao Ziyan only knew about Wang Yumo's village but had never visited her house, she didn't know where she lived in the village. She was not in a hurry, she took the initiative to walk next to a villager who was herding cattle, and asked respectfully and politely, "Hello uncle, I want to ask, do you know where Wang Yumo's home is?" ”

"Wang Yumo?" The villager smoked a dry cigarette and glanced at Hao Ziyan and the others a few times, and then seemed to react before saying, "Oh, you're talking about the daughter of the king of the village, right?" Hey, Wang Poison's house is at the east end of the village, just turn a corner along this road. Stranger, I don't know what you do, but I advise you not to go to his house for now. ”

"Oh? Why, uncle? Meng Bingling asked aloud, "Is there no one in his family now?" ”

"No, it seems that their family is in big trouble, and you should be careful now and it will be affected." After saying this, the villager turned and left, not intending to say anything more.

Xiao Qiang and the others were dumbfounded when they heard it, and they caused big trouble? This doesn't mean that something happened to Wang Yumo's family! The three people who reacted looked anxious, and immediately rushed along the path to Wang Yumo's house in the east of the village!
