"Your Majesty, the grass people and others have heard that our businessmen are meritorious to the state and can also be knighted, but I don't know how to count it as meritorious service? Please give your Majesty advice. ”

Seeing the young His Majesty the King, he was very kind, and Yoshida finally had the courage to say the original intention of this joint visit.

"There is no specific standard, in short, you only need to love the country and respect me, everything is based on the interests of the kingdom, do not betray the interests of the country, work hard, make a fortune, can lead the surrounding people to get rich, etc., is a qualified patriotic businessman, for a long time, has a great influence in the local area, and if you are loved by the people, it is possible to obtain a knighthood.

I encourage everyone to get rich, and as long as you pay taxes according to the rules, no matter how much property you have, you will be protected by the laws of the kingdom.

However, although commerce can promote circulation and increase exports, it is not the main business of the state after all, and I can tell you that only by opening factories and mines, vigorously developing agriculture and breeding, striving to raise the level of science and technology, and employing a large number of people are the only things that businessmen such as you should really do.

Soon, the government will open an industrial zone, and you can rent factories and set up factories, and I hope to see you take the lead in demonstrating and I will definitely be there to congratulate you. ”

"Your Majesty, I don't have the technology to run a workshop, and I can't just have the funds!" Yoshida replied.

"Technology depends on discovering folk artists, such as China's special fur products, which can be used for deep processing and made into high-end leather goods for export, in which you can make money, and can increase jobs for the country, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

For example, fish and shrimp are abundant here, but they are not resistant to preservation, so you can find a way to make canned food for export, which can also increase jobs and drive fishermen to make rich, these are not good things for the benefit of the country and the people? ”

"Your Majesty doesn't know, we and people believe in Buddhism and Shintoism, the most taboo dirty things, the work of tanning leather is a dirty thing, so it is listed as a cheap industry, I dare not do it!

And what is a can? The grass people are lonely and unheard, and they have never heard of it. Yoshida replied.

"Huh! These are stupid ideas, and it is a contradiction that the people need leather and despise the cobblers.

I am a new one, there is no prejudice, the widow believes in the glory of the laborer, but also advocates the spirit of ingenuity, any practitioner who is beneficial to the people and can significantly improve the quality of life of the people, is encouraged, in the future there will be no untouchables, untouched industry, are the legitimate citizens of our country, and they are all taken care of alone.

As for canned food, it is actually processed fresh fish into cooked food that can last for a long time and tastes delicious, and then sealed in a clay pot, which is canned food. ”

Yang Wenli is a modern person's thought, of course, he does not believe in Shintoism, he said his own thoughts, he is the lord of a country, his preference, is the atmosphere of the Far Eastern Kingdom in the future.

Later generations of Japanese scholars spoke highly of the avant-garde ideology of the founding monarch of the Far Eastern Empire, which could break the shackles of feudal thinking at that time, emancipate the minds of the people, make the country rapidly prosperous and strong, advocate science and technology, and the Far Eastern Empire could lead the world and become the most powerful emperor on which the sun never sets, all of which were inseparable from the unique and avant-garde ideas of the founding emperor, which enabled the Far Eastern Kingdom to enter an advanced democratic society with a constitutional monarchy in one fell swoop, more than a century earlier than the West.

Of course, this is not a matter of later thought, but Yoshida and other businessmen are very encouraged, and feel that under His Majesty's new thinking, there is no need to do anything, and they can completely throw off their arms and do it.

In fact, Yang Wenli's new policy benefited the most from those untouchables and peasants, whose social status has been truly improved, and they no longer have to live on the sly, while the peasants are less burdened.

The exploitation of peasants in the Tokugawa shogunate period in Japan has reached its peak, and the collection of taxes is actually a perverted degree of 7 public and 3 private, which means that the peasants who cultivate their own fields have only 3 percent of their income, and the remaining 7 percent have to pay taxes.

Due to the prevalence of Buddhism and Shintoism, Japan was basically vegetarian, and if you don't have enough to eat, you will suffer from malnutrition, and this situation was not resolved until the Meiji Restoration.

Prior to this, Japanese people were generally short, with an average height of about 1.4 to 1.5 meters, which was 20 centimeters shorter than the Chinese.

Compared with the soldiers of the Black Armor Army, it is even worse, just like the Confucianism compared to the giants, the difference in weight alone is doubled.

The Japanese have always had a tradition of worshipping the strong, and the Black Armor Army landed on Ezo Island strongly, and due to the disparity in power, the Matsumae Domain gave up resistance, and there was also a gene of worshipping the strong at work.

Yang Wenli's new policy achieved maximum openness and democracy in civil affairs, but it also achieved absolute dictatorship in military reform.

He completely isolated the army from the civilian administration, and even the most powerful parliament had no right to interfere with the army, and he did not intend to rely on the government for the armament and funding of the army, but did it alone, and in the future he might hand over this heavy responsibility to the royal family.

He has a unique glass mirror and bone china, which supports the expansion and daily training of the army without any problems.

An army that does not even rely on the government for funding can maintain absolute independence.

After three days of consideration, Yang Wenli finally made a choice for the main officials of various government departments.

The next day, the Far Eastern Kingdom held a second court meeting. With the announcement of the first court meeting, Yang Wenli is now the true monarch, so this time all the ministers are respectfully bowing and shouting long live.

There were so many people in attendance, and the first floor of the castle tower was too small, so there was only a small space in the middle of the castle tower, and there were as many as five rows of people kneeling on each side.

After the ceremony, after the ministers were seated, Yang Wenli opened Chrysostom and said: "Ministers, after three days of thinking, the chief officials of various government departments have made a decision.

First of all, the parliament, the chief officers of the army above the junior flag officer, including Lu Chuanzong of the Logistics Department and Wang Rucheng, the director in charge of armament manufacturing, were all given temporary lords for a five-year term, including the newly joined Matsuzen Gongguang Chief Flag Officer.

Zhou Shiji, Wu Sanhe, and Huang Fuxing were canonized as temporary lords and entered the work of the parliament, of which Zhou Shiji was the speaker and presided over the work of the parliament, and Wu Sanhe and Huang Fuxing were the deputy speakers to assist in their work.

In view of the large number of people in our country, it is necessary to add three members of the Parliament to the Peace People's Republic of China, and likewise to give temporary lords for a term of office.

It should be reminded that parliamentarians are not allowed to participate in the work of various government departments in order to ensure their objectivity, impartiality, and earnestly perform their duties of supervising the government.

The re-election of members of parliament will be appointed by Lone in the short term, and in the future, it will depend on the national vote, so you are not born with the government all the way.

You must think about the people and win their love and support in order to be re-elected in the five-year general election.

Since I don't know much about the officials, I will recommend myself by you, and then Matsumae Gonghiro will report to Gu. ”

"The minister obeys the order" Matsumae Gonghiro hurriedly bowed to accept the order.

"There are less than 20 parliamentarians, but the task of creating the law is arduous, otherwise the follow-up government departments will not be able to carry out their work, so Lone decided that everyone present will temporarily participate in the formulation of the law, including Lone himself, and officially start work tomorrow."
