Chapter 320: The Kingdom's Interests Take Precedence

Tu Shan was speechless.

It's not that she can't argue with Candle Jiuyin, but because their Nine-Tails family is really deeply benefited, because under the protection of this law, only the big proprietors have the capital to trade with those second-class races, because to establish a perfect trade system, a lot of money must be invested in advance, and the same is true for trade with humans at the beginning, among which the big producers of the black sheep Jiuzhen and the nine-tailed white charm of their cattle humps have invested a lot of money, but this money is not given, what they get is to monopolize the products of the second-class races, and control the trade channels.

This kind of monopolistic behavior leads to the wealth generated by the second-class race, which is gradually gathered in the hands of those big families, and the big families monopolize these resources and wealth, and can expand their own domestic market, so their wealth is more and more accumulated.

That wine is a classic example.

In this case, any reason of the Tu Shan clan will be untenable, because people will point at her nose and scold, you are just for the benefit of your own family.

Bai Ze suddenly stroked his beard and smiled, and said, "The Blood Jin Gong is very right, Bai Ze deeply admires it, but I think that the Blood Jin Gong also tells the true meaning of this law. From the point of view of fairness, those laws are indeed a little unfair, and they are biased in favor of those second-class races, but why is the suggestion of the Blood Gold Duke not to protect those ordinary royal families, who are also royal families, why do the large property owners pay more taxes than ordinary royal families? Isn't that fair? The law has never been defined by absolute fairness, but by relative fairness, balancing the rich and the poor, the strong and the weak, which is the true meaning of the law. ”

Candle Jiuyin frowned, thought about it, nodded and said, "Wen Zai is reasonable. Speaking of this, he laughed and said: "Regarding this matter, of course, it is still you who are the main ones, and it is only when the king asks me that I say what I think, but in terms of governing the country, I am indeed inferior to you." ”

So saying, he sat down.

Tu Shanshi breathed a sigh of relief slightly, but Bai Ze did have a solemn face.

The King of the Earth, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "I have invited you to come here to discuss how to resolve this matter, not to argue about right and wrong here. ”

"Yes."

Everyone got up again and bowed their heads.

Out of the main hall.

Tu Shan glanced at the Blood Jin Gong who had already descended the ladder, and whispered to Bai Ze: "I'm sure that this matter is manipulated by the Blood Jin Gong behind his back, and the words he just said are at the key point, and they are definitely not suddenly thought, I am even sure that he predicted the heavy snow earlier." ”

"It's all my fault, I didn't pay attention to it beforehand, if I had noticed it at the time, maybe things wouldn't have gotten to this point, alas... I never imagined that he would use humans to achieve his own ends. ”

Bai Ze looked up to the sky and sighed, "But now, it's too late, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to stop him." ”

Tu Shan was surprised: "How do you say this? ”

Bai Ze said: "The two suggestions he put forward can be described as fatal. ”

Tu Shan said: "But ...... just now?" ”

Bai Ze said: "As long as he says it, he has already won, he doesn't need to fight with us about right or wrong at all, because he manipulates everyone's psychology, as long as he spreads his advice, everyone will support him at that time, even if it is your Nine-Tails family." ”

Tu Shanshi frowned and said, "I don't quite understand. ”

Bai Ze said: "Actually, some of the statements of the Blood Gold Duke are not wrong, the gap between the rich and the poor within our kingdom is indeed getting bigger and bigger, if we continue to let it go, the contradiction will still intensify, so he suggested increasing the taxes of large proprietors and reducing the ordinary royal family, which is actually right." But this will inevitably hurt the interests of the big producers, but if the royal family is allowed to build factories in the territory of the second-class races, I think the big owners are willing to pay more taxes, because this policy will make them more money. ”

Tu Shan nodded slightly, and said: "I understand, if you want to calm the anger of the people, you must reduce the taxes of ordinary royal families, I believe that many large proprietors have already noticed this, for something that is bound to happen, then they will naturally pursue better results, so the blood gold prince put forward the proposal of allowing the royal family to go to the second-class race territory to build a factory, so that the ordinary royal family is also towards him, and the big proprietor also supports him." ”

Bai Ze nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Tu Shan said: "But we must prevent this from happening, because if the royal family is allowed to trade in the territory of the second-class race, then they will be enslaved by us, which is inevitable, and the order that our kingdom has worked so hard to establish will be completely destroyed." ”

"I know that, too."

Bai Ze sighed heavily, but there was a little helplessness between his eyebrows.

......

"Ah---!h

Gluttony stretched his waist and said: "I really don't understand why everyone thinks I'm terrible, in fact, compared to you who is blind, I'm so kind, you look at the sky, how many lives have been sacrificed, maybe enough for me to eat for a lifetime." ”

"Shut your foul mouth."

Candle Jiuyin glared.

Gluttony snorted: "Don't murder me at this time, in case my mouth is crooked and I vote for the wrong vote, don't blame me." ”

Candle Jiuyin bowed his head and sighed, silent.

Jiuying smiled and shook his head slightly, and said to Candle Jiu**: "I think that now, everyone knows what is going on, how do you think the king will deal with it?" ”

The corners of Candle Jiuyin's mouth raised slightly, and said: "I don't know this, but this is a big test for our young king, and I also look forward to what choice the king will make in the end, but it doesn't matter, I am already in control of the victory now, no one can stop me, how are you preparing over there?" ”

Jiu Ying said: "Our army is gathering to the west, and when your side succeeds, we can send troops immediately." ”

Candle Jiuyin said with a smile: "We must give Chang Xi a big surprise this time, let her know that the reason why our royal family can rule this land is definitely not because of lip service." ”

Gluttony smiled and said, "Seriously, I haven't eaten alien and essence for a long time, and I miss them very much, and I don't know if Li Qi will use them to cook." ”

Candle Jiuyin shook his head and smiled: "I advise you not to go to Li Qi for the time being, so as not to find yourself unhappy, because he is very busy now, and he will be even busier in the future, and if he is not careful, they may disappear." ”

......

Sure enough, as Bai Ze expected, the topic of their argument this time quickly spread.

Those royal families supported Candle Jiuyin's two suggestions.

The topic of controversy began to change qualitatively, and the most powerful people did not stand up to speak before, resulting in many royal families just shouting for more, but there was no specific plan, some royal families said that they wanted to reduce taxes and increase welfare, and some royal families said that they wanted to increase the taxes of the second-class races, and the royal family would set the price, and there was no leader, everyone was fighting their own battles.

But from now on, those royal families who complained immediately unified their voices, gathered around Candle Jiuyin, and supported Candle Jiuyin's suggestion, and they also put pressure on those big producers, the kingdom is uneven, you should pay more taxes, before they didn't dare to attack the big owners, but now that Candle Jiuyin is taking the lead, they are not afraid.

Many large property owners see this situation, come on, and we will also stand with you, the reason is very simple, if they continue to fight, maybe their taxes will increase, and at the same time there will be no benefit at all.

Many calculators have calculated how much more money the big proprietors can make if the market of the second-class races is opened, and the result is that as long as the tax does not increase by 40 percent, they will have something to earn, and the long-term benefits will be even more terrifying.

In this case, there is even more nothing to say.

Candle Jiuyin put forward two suggestions, but because of the relationship of interests, they were tied together.

The power of the opposition is rapidly increasing.

And the king of the earth has not yet taken a stand, but he must do so now.

That night, the King of the Earth summoned Moonjae Baeksawa alone.

"Moon Jae, it's just the two of us here, I want to know what you think about this?" The King of the Earth asked with a solemn face.

Bai Ze said: "Obviously, all this is manipulated by the Blood Gold Duke behind his back, and his purpose is to gain control of the kingdom, so as to launch a war against the Moon Three Clans, at the original banquet of the century, we all fell for his tricks, he deliberately let us paralyze the Moon Mother and them, he had already predicted the heavy snow." ”

When the king of the earth heard this, his face was flat, this was to seize power, he could be so plain, obviously he had already noticed it, and after a while, he asked, "Then how do you think I should choose?" ”

Bai Ze said: "I wonder if the king intends to abolish the old law and create a new law?" ”

The King of the Earth said, "I never thought of abolishing the old law, and once it was abolished, our kingdom would surely perish." ”

Bai Ze said: "But the king, the concerns of the Blood Golden Duke are not completely unreasonable, first of all, the Moon Three Clans have always been separated from us, and everyone knows this, but it has never been broken. They have always been haunted by the defeat of the last war, if we want to continue to maintain the dominance of the royal family, then we can't stop Changxi's ambitions, we can only delay as much as possible, hoping to think of a better way to resolve it.

Secondly, it is true that there are many royal families who think that our laws protect the lower races too much, and even damage the interests of our royal family themselves, but in fact, our royal family benefits from it, but the uneven distribution of interests, most of the interests, are taken up by the big producers, even if this contradiction is suppressed today, he will definitely erupt in the future. ”

When the King of the Earth heard this, he couldn't help but say, "You mean, let me stand on the side of the Blood Gold Prince?" ”

Bai Ze said: "Then it depends on the king's heart, whether the interests of our kingdom come first, but the interests of other races come first." ”

Without hesitation, the King of the Earth said, "Naturally, the interests of our kingdom take precedence. ”

Although he is the king of the earth, he is nothing without the support of the royal family.

Bai Ze said: "Then the king should take a stand, firmly uphold the traditional law, and do not hesitate to tear his face with the blood and gold duke." ”

The King of the Earth frowned and said, "Aren't you contradicting yourself? ”

Bai Ze said: "I just prioritize the interests of the kingdom. Things have progressed to this point, I don't think anyone can stop the Blood Gold Prince, not even the king, if I am not wrong, the Blood Gold Lord will open the War Clan Council and take over the control of the kingdom from the king. ”

The King of the Earth frowned slightly, but he didn't say that he was very panicked.

If this is in the feudal society of mankind, the emperor will be scared to pee, this seizure of power is the seizure of the throne, and the entire royal family will be thrown into the eighteenth layer of hell, and will never be able to turn over.

But the situation of the kingdom is different, the kingdom is a hereditary system of races, and the Zijin War Clan is the Zijin War Clan, and it is impossible to be the king of the earth.

Because everyone knows that if this can be changed, then the kingdom will be torn apart, because the kingdom is a multi-racial country, either everyone will come in turn, or a certain race will be stipulated, everyone will not fight, under this system, the four major war clans are even more unlikely to seize the throne, because their race is very single, just one family, the ten major lords of the family represent a huge race, once divided, the four major war clans will become four families without a country, And other races will certainly come together to form a nation.

If there is only one perfect race, then the kingdom may be divided, but the problem is that there are five other perfect races, and once they are divided, they will be destroyed by the other perfect races one by one.

Therefore, it is impossible for the king of the earth to change races, this is a consensus of everyone, then there must be a mouth, not all blocked, that will also be a problem, so the power is a change, the existence of the war clan council, in fact, is a mechanism to avoid direct conflict between the king and the four war clans, the war clan council can directly control the kingdom at some special times, which is stipulated by law.

Bai Ze continued: "But I also said that those contradictions exist objectively, and it is not easy to solve, because now everyone's interests are intertwined, and the only solution is to break the tradition, and then establish a new set of order. But this is easy to say, but it is very difficult to do, and I have never thought of a good way, but now we can use the blood gold prince to break the tradition, and then you will come forward to establish a new order. ”

The King of the Earth said: "Are you so sure that the Blood Gold Duke will not succeed?" ”

Bai Ze said with a smile: "The method of the Blood Gold Duke is nothing more than to start a war and turn the contradiction outside, but in this war, it is impossible for us to get the support of the Great Desolation Clan and the Spirit Clan, if we can get their full support, I will also be in favor of launching a war against the Moon Three Clans, and I can't wait until they are strong to clean them up." However, without the support of the Spirit Clan and the Great Desolate Clan, it is difficult for us to achieve a decisive victory, because no matter which side is going to achieve a decisive victory, the Spirit Clan and the Great Desolate Clan will definitely intervene, they will not want to see either side break the balance, as long as they cannot control the three Moon Lotus clans, the strategy of the Blood Gold Duke will fail. ”

The King of the Earth said, "So we let the Blood Gold Duke fight an impossible war?" ”

Bai Ze said: "Although it is not a decisive victory, it is enough to severely damage the Moon Three Clans and weaken their strength, because Chang Xi has fallen for the strategy of the Blood Jin Gong, they must think that we will never start a war for the time being, if the Blood Jin Gong starts a war immediately, we will definitely be able to catch them off guard, and we are prepared to fight, we will take the initiative on the battlefield."

Although if the Blood Gold Duke suddenly takes control of the kingdom, then we will not be considered violating the original agreement, after all, we are sticking to the original agreement, but we can't do anything about it.

But as long as the war cannot achieve a decisive victory and control the three moon clans, then the domestic economy will decline due to the war, and when that time comes, everyone will naturally think of the king's insistence at this moment, and long for the king to come out to reverse the situation, the king can take advantage of the situation to establish a new set of order, because then the king is facing a spirit clan that cannot get out of the spirit state, a great wilderness clan that is unable to rule the earth, and the moon three clans that are disabled by us, although the strategy of the blood gold prince has failed, But the dominance of our kingdom will be strengthened. ”

His meaning is actually very simple, that is, the contradiction is transferred, and then broken and then established, and now the kingdom is facing two contradictions inside and outside, the outside is the three tribes of the moon, the heart of Changxi, everyone knows, and at the same time there are internal contradictions, that is, the traditional law and the gap between the rich and the poor.

Of course, this internal contradiction must be resolved first, and the external must first be settled internally, but now everyone's interests are already intertwined, and the cost of solving it is very high, and it is very likely that there will be turmoil.

But once there is any turmoil, the Moon Three Clan will definitely take advantage of the situation, they have long been eyeing each other, and then they will have internal and external troubles, so Bai Ze's strategy is to let Candle Jiuyin first inflict heavy damage on the Moon Three Clan, and even mess up the outside world, and then we will slowly solve the internal contradictions.

Bai Ze is only the wisest royal family in the kingdom, but not the most moral royal family in the kingdom, he must put the interests of the kingdom first in his heart, even if those laws are superficially various protections for the second-class races, but fundamentally they are still to maintain the rule of their kingdom.

Whether it is fighting, it is and, the purpose is the same, and it has never changed.

Whoever wants to use morality and feelings to restrain politics and interests can only be said to be too naΓ―ve, and this is simply impossible.

After hearing this, the King of the Earth was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Your analysis is very correct, but have you ever thought that each generation of the Blood Gold War Clan is the most thoughtful and careful among the four major war clans, besides, fighting a war is what the four war clans are best at, can you think of this war, it is difficult for us to achieve a decisive victory, and the Blood Gold Guild can't think of it?" ”

After hearing this, Bai Ze couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "What does the king mean?" ”

The King of the Earth said, "I don't mean anything, I just always believe that the Blood Gold Duke will never do anything to harm our kingdom." ”
