"Then what if the villagers elect you in the future?" Luo Youde instantly thought of a possibility.

"That means they don't need me anymore, or they have found someone better. Since no one needs it, of course I'm going to get out of the way, am I still in the boardroom? Hong Tao pouted, he will not have this crisis in a short time, in the future, God knows, the future will be talked about later.

"What if someone buys off the villagers with money?" Luo Youde's brain is very good, and the two questions he asks are key.

"Buy-through? See the tallest tree over there? The people of the village never stayed around it, because I had nailed several people to death in that big tree. Here are the rules, some rules can't be broken, and if you break them once, you won't have a chance to change them. Hong Tao pointed to a tall pine tree by the river, all around which had been cut down, and it stood alone.

"Strict punishment and strict laws are not enough to continue the rule, and the pre-Qin Dynasty forced the people to rebel because the laws were too harsh." Luo Youde is worthy of being a child of an official eunuch, even if he is a concubine and a businessman, he can still quote scriptures, which must be a child's skill.

"Well, that's the truth, so not all of them here are strict punishments, only a few can't be touched, and the other rules are very loose. In fact, I don't have any laws here, it's not so detailed, everyone just lives together, there is no salary to get, and all the daily necessities are provided by the cooperative. This method is okay in the short term and on a small scale, but it is certainly not the way to do it in the long run, and it is necessary to establish a more detailed and effective management method. However, I don't have that much time to take care of this, so I suggest that Wen Langzhong and Brother Luo should be involved in this work. Help me build a more appropriate approach together. Don't you want to make your ambitions come true? It doesn't matter if it's a country. Whether it's a huge business, isn't it rewarding to set the rules for it yourself? Hong Tao agrees with Luo Youde's statement, simple and rough is not a long-term solution, once Jinhewan develops for a few more years and the population increases, all kinds of problems will arise. It is impossible to eat this big pot of rice forever, and it must always change to the structure of the country. Even if it's not called a state, it actually is.

"......" Luo Youde and Wen Nan did not answer Hong Tao's words, although Hong Tao's behavior cannot be regarded as a rebellion, but it is almost the same, they have established themselves as kings, how can the two of them make decisions? Follow Hong Tao together, that doesn't mean betraying your country! Accusing Hong Tao of not doing this? They are not Song people at all, but their ancestors lived in this land, and there was no Great Song Dynasty at that time, so you can't use the laws of the Song Dynasty to ask the Tang Dynasty people, right? Persuade Hong Tao to return to the Great Song Dynasty? Not to mention Wen Nan, who has been sprayed back many times. Luo Youde also knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for Hong Tao to listen to him.

"It doesn't matter. Think slowly, look slowly, when you are interested, when to come to me. This is not something that can be done overnight, and it may not be enough to exhaust our lives. I'm not trying to build a dynasty, I'm just trying to bring you to a different way of living, a more relaxed and balanced way of living. I don't know the results, so I won't force you to follow me to do the experiments with your life. But this doesn't affect our normal relationship, I'm not a thief of the Great Song Dynasty, it shouldn't matter if you do business with me and help me write a book, right? Hong Tao is not very good at persuading others, mainly because he disdains to fool people on this kind of issue, he prefers to talk about the ugly things in front and the difficulties more seriously. Willing to be naturally willing, unwilling and not forced, because I don't have hard requirements for myself, I can do which step I can do, I really can't play and don't feel sorry, I have worked hard, and my ability is not good.

"Look, this is my horse farm, these dozens of horses have just been brought back, and they are not yet adapted to the climate and environment here, and it will take a few days. The horses we rode were the ones we got back last year, and they're all fine at all. It's just that it's not very useful to me, except for the children to practice horseback riding, they can neither plow the land nor carry it, and they basically eat for nothing. "Three men and three horses, all the way through the village and town, through a few rows of big trees, suddenly became empty in front of them. They had come to the edge of a hilly area, which was devoid of tall trees and dominated by shrubs and weeds, and a large field was fenced off on one of the slopes, where a herd of horses was raised.

"The big house over there is the official mansion here?" Luo Youde looked back at the village and town he had just passed, as if he was looking for something, and finally he pointed to the tallest house in the middle of the village and town.

"Official? That's the school, the place where the kids are taught. There is no government here, only a council chamber, right next to the dock, next to the warehouse. Hong Tao pondered sideways and understood what Luo Youde meant. Since ancient times, the official palace has always been the tallest and conspicuous building in a village, town, and city. But the best place in Golden River Bay is the school, where the houses are not only the tallest, but also the most elaborate workmanship, and there is a large playground. Children can play on it, and Hong Tao has also invented a lot of sports equipment for this purpose, such as badminton rackets made of whale baleen and whale tendons, badminton balls made of bird feathers and cork, rugby balls sewn from whale skin, single parallel bars, climbing frames, swings, etc.

If outsiders enter the classroom here, they will be even more surprised. In the classroom, there are carved desks and chairs made of mahogany, Persian carpets on the floor, and oil lamps made of gold and silver that are lit whenever the class is in session. Every child has beautiful clothes, stationery and toys, and the people of the village are eager to have their school jeweled.

Why is this so? Because Hong Tao promoted a proposal and it was approved by the board of directors, it officially became one of the rules of Jinhewan. This rule stipulates that all living and dead people in Jinhe Bay, all the things used for food, clothing, shelter and transportation, must not exceed the level of the school. For example, if you want to suggest that the cafeteria eat abalone, okay, you can make the food in the school more advanced than the abalone, and you can eat abalone. If you want to build your family's house into a two-story building, that's fine, but you have to find a way to build the school house into three floors. If you want to wear silk and satin, no problem, there are more than 100 children in the school, let them have two good clothes first, and then you can have one.

Under the management of this rule, as long as there are more than 1,000 people in the entire Jinhe Bay who want to enjoy it, they must persuade the majority of them to agree, and then raise the grade of the school so that they can enjoy it. Having three children in the family is considered a advantage, and you deserve to have no children at home, who let you have no children! If you don't marry so many Persian and Byzantine beauties, you will die in a hurry!

"Even the children of slaves can be here?" After Luo Youde listened to the school rules explained to him by Wen Nan, he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, and he was in favor of asking more children to read and write, but whether it was appropriate to use such a high specification, he had no right to speak, he had never thought about this thing. When he saw with his own eyes that the children in the school were different in skin color and appearance, he immediately understood where these children came from, and then he was the same as the old man Bo Fu, and he smacked his teeth, how much does it cost!

"Under the age of fifteen must go to school, slaves are only a temporary means of making up for the lack of population, it is impossible to sustain it for long, sooner or later they will become part of this place, let their children be educated, and it will be my compensation to them. I also wanted to establish a nautical school in Guangzhou to teach world geography, arithmetic and Chinese. When they grow up, they can also read and write, but they don't have to take the test to gain fame, they can become interpreters, bookkeepers, and senior sailors on ships. Don't dare to say anything else, little brother, my abacus skills should be a must in the Great Song Dynasty, right? Hong Tao was more modest this time, and only boasted about his abacus ability, because only this ability can still make the Song people regard it as the right way, and other knowledge is not valued by this era, and no one buys it for a long time.

"Mr. Hong is too modest, your attainments in the number of techniques Wen is not as self-conscious, I am here to everyone, I am afraid it will be difficult to beat Mr. If Mr. is willing to take out this ability and pass it on to the disciples, it will definitely benefit future generations. Today was the most respectful day for Wen Nan, and Hong Tao's image suddenly became taller in his eyes, and the brutal and murderous pirate leader was transformed into a great benevolent man who shared worries for the country and was enthusiastic about education. Although he still doesn't believe Hong Tao very much, these things are in front of him, and he can't turn a blind eye. Wen Nan is still relatively fair in this regard, he is not right about things, as long as it is reasonable, even if it comes from the mouth of Hong Tao, a kidnapper, he is willing to nod and agree, it should be said that he is a realistic person.

"Hey, hey, hey...... You say this school is named after me? Will future generations write me into the history books? "It's a pity, Hong Tao is too lazy, he doesn't even want to spend the energy of pretending, he made a generous statement a second ago, and a second later he smiled evilly and began to think about fame and achievement, this virtue made Wen Nan and Luo Youde want to praise him and couldn't find the right words.

Hong Tao, the industrial zone on the south bank of the river, did not take Luo Youde to visit, there are too many secrets there, not to mention Luo Youde, even Wen Nan, who has lived in Jinhewan for almost two years, has never been there. The south bank is not visible from the north bank, except for a few large waterwheels that are constantly spinning, and there are two hammer forging workshops near the waterwheels, only part of the shipyard is exposed by the river. Many more workshops are hidden behind dense primeval forests, half a mile from the water's edge. Hong Tao specially asked the slaves to cut down a few clearings in the primeval forest, and put all the dangerous and polluting workshops in them, so that there are woods between the workshops, and even if there is an accident, it is not easy to affect each other. As for the large-scale forest fire, Hong Tao had already thought that in the south of this primeval forest, there is a firebreak more than 300 meters wide and three kilometers long that is under construction, which will eventually isolate this industrial area hidden in the forest from the entire primeval forest.
