Chapter 117: Homecoming
After a few months, Lin Tian finally set foot on the land again. This trip is inevitably a mental tempering for Lin Tian. Lin Tian wanted to let Yidi be born, the first thing was to let himself be born first, and he heard and witnessed it all the way during this birth trip, and he had a great understanding of the situation in the southern countries.
In Lin Tian's heart, if Yidi wants to go south, the first thing he will face is the obstruction of several monarchies in the south, and if he wants to integrate into the general trend, he must first solve these obstacles. It is unwise to use force, which is weak and weak, and the value of force is far inferior to that of the southern countries; Second, the southern countries are very united, and if they attack one of them, they will be attacked by their allies.
These countries entered into alliances to protect themselves against the attacks of major powers, and Lin Tian had already understood this, for example, the Phantom Flame Country, as a third-order country, would conclude an alliance with the rest of the third-order countries, and would also maintain close ties with the second-order countries.
The southern countries have been divided into three orders by Lin Tian, and the first order is naturally the two major empires, but now the Longlan Empire is weak, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that it is only the new master who is young now, and he has not sorted out the country, so Lin Tian still classifies him to the first order; The second level is the three kingdoms, namely Teng, Daluo, and Yan, these three countries are relatively thick and old-fashioned, and they can exist next to the two empires without being swallowed, which shows that the strength is still strong; In the end, there are the remaining five monarchies, five countries and five monarchs, it is really a country rather than a country of one race, these countries are all established by the big clans and inherited, and the strength is still there, otherwise it will not be preserved until now, but they are incomparable to the empires and kingdoms in front, so Lin Tian divided them into the third order.
Take Teng Country as an example, he is adjacent to the Phantom Flame Country, and the Phantom Flame Country will hug this thigh tightly, after all, Teng Kingdom's force value is one of the best among all countries. It is a pity that over the years, Teng has paid too much attention to the army, and has often expanded its recruitment, but has never seen any disarmament. Moreover, China also attaches great importance to joining the army, and joining the army has become the biggest way for the people at the bottom to ascend.
And this deformed development model has also caused its domestic economy to begin to decline, and the huge army is dragging down the country's economy step by step. It may not be obvious now, but Tengguo has already planted a calamity, and it has begun to corrode from the roots, and one day this towering tree will not be able to withstand the wind and rain and will fall down with a bang.
As soon as Lin Tian returned to the main altar of Fenglin City, there were not many things, and big and small things came all over the world. Just listening to the report of the presbyterian meeting, I listened to it for three days and three nights, and everyone squinted every day for three days and three nights, and then the day dawned, and then they began to report again.
In the past few days, Lin Tian still has the time to entertain Lan Zi'an and them, and Lin Tian has given full authority to Wu Yao. It is said that Lin Tian is in the main altar of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and Hump is not allowed to enter and leave without permission if he is not a member of the church. Therefore, Wu Yao arranged everyone in Fenglin City and bought a house in the city, although it is not as good as the one in Dangchang City, but it is not bad.
When they learned about Lin Tian's status here, everyone was surprised, including the old man who came, he had only heard that Lin Tian seemed to be the head of a section here, but he didn't expect it to be the head of a place. Of course, these were all told to the old man by Ghost Face, when Ghost Face left Yidi, Lin Tian was indeed only the leader of the Heavenly Alliance, but now it is different, Lin Tian is the leader of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and he is the nominal supreme leader of Beiyi.
Although it was only in name, this was Lin Tian's initial Huairou policy, allowing the various ministries to integrate together as quickly as possible, but they had their own rights, and they only obeyed the decrees of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect to a certain extent.
Of course, because Lin Tian came from the Heavenly Alliance, the Heavenly Alliance has always resolutely supported Lin Tian, and Old Man Wu has had a lot of dealings with Lin Tian, and there is a relationship with Wu Yao, so Wu Heng is also very supportive of Lin Tian. Besides, Soto, seeing that the three major forces of Beiyi have been returned to the second, he will naturally not be willing to fall behind, even if he does not support Lin Tian 100%, but he does not dare to do anything on the surface.
And although the A-Min Po Department has joined the rule of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, it is more like a mutually beneficial partnership relationship, and how long this relationship can last depends on how long the Apocalypse Sect can be strong. Therefore, Lin Tian is now nominally the supreme leader, but in fact he is the supreme principal, because someone listens to his orders. In the final analysis, strength determines everything, and Lin Tian has the most powerful supporters and advocates behind him, because their interests have long been tied to Lin Tian.
Of course, it can't be said that Lin Tian has no personality charm, and his prestige has also conquered many people, such as Baturu and Fang Hao, who have no interests entangled.
In these three days, Lin Tian heard about the new developments, new advances, and some not-so-good news in Yidi. The good news is that everything is normal in Yidi, there is no chaos, everything is moving forward steadily, and the other good news is that copper mines have been found on the other side of the Fu River. This news made Lin Tian feel novel, Lin Tian didn't know why the most common and easy-to-find copper ore was not found in Dongyi, and then found one in the Gobi in Xiyi, and its storage was said to be quite large.
Lin Tian was quite happy about this news, so that the monetary system in his heart could finally be established. Copper has a low density, is softer, easier to cast, and is also more wear-resistant, making it a very good choice for minting currency.
If Lin Tian wants Yidi to be born, he must first connect with the outside world, and the way of bartering or exchanging iron money is no longer suitable, and Yidi urgently needs to establish a currency system suitable for himself. In fact, the monetary systems of other countries are not the same, but precious metals are hard currency, so the gold and silver coins that Lin Tian goes out to hold will be collected wherever he goes. Because they can always have a way to exchange it, and if you have copper coins, it's not easy to say.
Although there is no restriction on the inflow of other countries' currencies for the sake of their commercial development, it is a question of whether it is good to use other countries' currencies.
In Yidi, Lin Tian's plan was to use copper, silver and gold to create a currency and establish a monetary system, of which copper currency should account for the majority, because Yidi lacked gold and silver minerals and could not support the huge monetary system. This proposal has been put forward by Lin Tian to the Council of Elders, and the elders also agree with Lin Tian's approach, it is true that Yidi also needs to have its own monetary system, and they will naturally improve the details, and Lin Tian will only be responsible for the proposal.
In the courtyard set up by Wu Yao, there were no other outsiders, but 2 cooks were hired to take care of their eating habits. Xiao Yuan and Xiao Xiuyuan were companions together, learning art under the old man, and Mannie took good care of her life. Mannie must have heard something, after all, she is also fourteen years old, and she is considered an adult in Yidi, she has been independent since she was a child, and she is sensible early. Lin Tian and their words, she could understand a little, so she took over the job of taking care of Xiaoyuan, and sure enough, this made Lin Tian's mood much better.
Mannie knew that her young master (that is, Lin Tian, who was instructed by Lin Tian in Yidi) felt guilty about Xiao Yuan, so she really regarded Xiao Yuan as her own brother like Xiao Xiuyuan, and even surpassed it. After coming to Yidi, Mannie knew Lin Tian's identity and status, and she was happy and sad for herself at the same time, she felt that she couldn't help Lin Tian anything, and she could only solve Lin Tian's worries, which was to take good care of Madoka.
After the old man knew Lin Tian's identity and status, fortunately, there was no big turmoil, he came to care for the elderly anyway, and he was very satisfied to stay with a few children and spend the rest of his life. On the contrary, Lan Zi'an and Lu Qianqian's reaction was bigger, Lan Zi'an reacted big in his heart, and Lu Qianqian's cousin did react greatly, Lin Tianneng had this status, she didn't feel real, she didn't believe that Lin Tian had any virtue or ability, and he ruled one side at a young age.
Lan Zi'an was shocked at the same time, but also expressed comfort, comforting himself, sure enough, Lin Tian is a noble person in the master's mouth, Lin Tian didn't say it before, Lin Tian is a good brain, upright person, worthy of life and death friends in his eyes. It's different now, Lin Tian has such a feat at a young age, that is the dignity of a male lord!
In this world of many countries, relying on strength speaks. Managing a hundred people can be long, a thousand people can be generals, ten thousand people can be commanders, and ten thousand people are not the rulers of this land? Lin Tian was young but could control the land of hundreds of thousands of people, and he already seemed to be dominant. Now Lan Zi Anxin looks at Lin Tian like this, and all the way from Yidi, the people all praise the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and it is conceivable that Lin Tian's governance ability is also very outstanding.
In Lan Zi'an's opinion, the people of Beiyi live a much better life than the people of other countries, there are no harsh taxes here, and there is no oppression by power. Although the standard of living is still in the era of subsistence and clothing, isn't this what the people at the bottom want? At this point, Lan Zi'an thinks that Lin Tian has done a good job, especially the sub-division system, Lan Zi'an has heard of it, this system was formulated by Lin Tian, which greatly solves the problem of food and clothing for the people.
In recent years, it is rare to hear about people dying of starvation in Yidi, which has to be attributed to the division and sharing system formulated by Lin Tian, so that the people can fundamentally support themselves, which greatly stimulates the people's enthusiasm for production and allows them to eat enough. On the contrary, the people at the bottom of the southern countries were not fed and clothed, and in the year of famine, they were starving everywhere.
I have to say that Yidi is a paradise place, there are no major natural disasters, and the only natural disaster is probably the long snow season. But now the people of Yidi are not afraid, thinking that the people's food comes from animals, watching the sky to eat, this year more animals are captured and slaughtered, so they can have a good winter, otherwise they will starve to death and freeze to death. Nowadays, the system of dividing crops is widely implemented in Yidi, although the people only grow one crop a year, pay taxes and grain, and often have a surplus to survive the winter, so that everyone's life has begun to be better.
In general, in addition to Lin Tian's ascension to the throne, the policies formulated are good, and there are also natural factors, Yidi belongs to the vast land and sparsely populated, there are plains and mountains, so the people have more land, so it is not the dilemma of more people and less land.
Throughout the ages, food has been the biggest factor in curbing the number of people, and now that there is abundant food, the land is in a period of population growth, and its rate of increase is much faster than in the past.
And the population is one of the manifestations of the national situation in the era of cold weapons, so Yidi can be said to be rising rapidly, seeing that the situation in Yidi is very good, Lin Tian is also pleased.
