Chapter 420: Preparing to abdicate

Yes, since you are here to persuade you to surrender, if you are dressed in tatters to persuade you, people will believe that you are a ghost.

Therefore, Lu Bu consumes a lot of materials for these jobs.

Fortunately, the whole country understands that this is an investment that should be made in the early stage, and the ministers will not oppose it.

The minority obeyed the majority, and most of them supported Lu Bu's policy, and the few who disagreed with it were of little use.

It's like heavily funding Arabia, Anxib, Kushan and other places in the early stage, but you can get a lot of oil.

Funding the northern snow fields and grasslands can obtain a large amount of natural gas, cattle, sheep and horses.

Everything is to make Huaxia better and the world better.

The situation in Africa soon stabilized as a large number of blacks returned to Africa.

LĂź Bu gave them freedom, gave them materials and civilization, and made the blacks return to their hearts and accept the rule of China.

Sima Zhao retreated again and again, and soon there was no place to stand.

After knowing the news of his eldest brother's death in battle, Sima Zhao cried even more.

The general trend has gone, and Sima Zhao knows that there is no way to resist Huaguo anymore.

In the end, Sima Zhao fled with only his family and his most loyal soldiers.

Yes, incognito, fleeing to the border mountains.

Sima Zhao also wanted to preserve Sima's incense inheritance, and did not want to sacrifice as heroically as Sima Shi.

And as Sima Zhao fled, the resistance of the blacks became even weaker.

Lu Tianlong also fought all the way from North Africa to South Africa, and wanted to subdue the whole of Africa.

Cheng Wang was defeated, although Lu Bu ordered Sima Zhao to be wanted, but he did not have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to find it.

The place of conquest has just been decided, and it is impossible to spend a lot of resources to find a rebel who has escaped from the world.

At this time, Lu Bu gathered the concubines to discuss the future residence plan.

The original system, Lu Bu was unwilling to break it.

In other words, once the throne was passed to the crown prince, he should move out of the palace.

This is an ancient system, and it is not easy to change without permission.

Otherwise, there will be the emperor and the emperor in the harem, and this is not messy.

As soon as this proposition came out, the concubines were chaotic.

Some people want to go here, some people want to go anywhere, and most of them want to go back to their hometowns.

Gan Mei and Lu Zhen want to go back to Xuzhou, Yan wants to go back to Bingzhou, Er Qiao wants to go back to Lujiang, and Zhu Rong wants to go back to southern Xinjiang. Sun Shangxiang even proposed to go to Oceania because her son had the throne in Oceania.

The women insisted on their own words, which made Lu Bu very embarrassed.

There was no way, and in the end Lu Bu decided not to move.

There is still a piece of land on the east side of the first ring, and then build a Taishang palace casually.

After he abdicated, he took his daughters to travel around and never cared about political affairs anymore.

All the women have joys and grievances, and Lu Bu has all the opportunities, and there is really very little time to spend with them.

And there are so many concubines, and there are even fewer equal divisions.

Now I can finally enjoy life and of course be happy.

But the grudge is that some are old, although the travel is good, but the hard work of the boat and car is not comfortable.

Happiness comes too late, and how can there be no grudges.

Lu Bu decided to build the Taishang Palace here, and the hundred officials were also agitated.

Because this means that Lu Bu will soon abdicate.

With Lu Bu's physical fitness, even if he is an emperor for a few more decades, he can do it.

With Lu Bu's talent, Huaguo will be able to continue to maintain such a peak.

It is really embarrassing to pass on the throne to his son so early.

Because according to history, basically all emperors officially passed on the throne to their sons after their deaths.

Or it is when he is terminally ill and blind, he will pass on his position and delegate power.

There are really very few people like Lu Bu who passed on the throne when he was in good health.

Some officials admonished and wanted Lu Buduo to succeed to the imperial power for a period of time.

Yes, it is a heartfelt blessing to let Lu Bu enjoy the blessings.

Lu Bu had to be annoyed, before he officially announced his abdication, these guys nagged.

In the end, in order to build the Imperial Palace for Lu Bu, the household department transferred 10 billion funds to build it.

The Prince's Mansion spent three billion that year, and that was because the Prince's Mansion was only a transition after all.

status, let alone the emperor.

And Lu Bu's exploits are so great, it is completely reasonable to build a palace with 10 billion yuan.

And with China's current national strength, it can fully afford it.

Thinking that in the past, when science and technology were so backward, Emperor Qin was also able to build a magnificent Afang Palace.

Now that science and technology are so developed, it is not easy for Lu Bu to build a palace.

Since the project is going to be started, it will naturally not be slow.

Lu Bu directly recruited 100,000 migrant workers here to quickly repair the Imperial Palace.

There are no tall buildings, but there are still a lot of complex things to build.

There are a series of facilities such as hot spring pools, swimming pools, lake gardens, and various landscape gardens.

All kinds of decorations, naturally, are also top level.

And each concubine also has to have her own exclusive palace, and there must be a certain degree of isolation.

Although they are all concubines of Lu Bu, they also have exclusive relatives and descendants.

This daily visit to relatives must be alone.

Lu Bu had 21 concubines, so he divided 21 independent areas.

Another half a year passed, and the war in Europe finally came to an end.

The whole of Europe, the borders of the population and military power, have been conquered by the Chinese state.

The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden.

Many people understand this truth.

The news of Huang Zhong's disarmament here naturally also came out.

Some people who understand things understand what to do.

Zhang Liao took the initiative to disarm, and according to Huang Zhong's standard of 20,000, he left 20,000 pro-troops.

The rest has been compiled separately and asked Lu Bu to take it back.

As soon as Zhang Liao moved, the rest of the princes and kings with different surnames also knew how to behave.

The more soldiers, the more suspicious the emperor will be.

The world is too peaceful, and you still have so many troops, what do you want to do?

Therefore, in many areas with small populations, even 20,000 people do not want it, and it is enough to have 10,000 or thousands of soldiers to protect their own safety.

Under the general trend, even Sun Quan and others had to be forced to disarm.

In fact, not to mention that the princes and kings of various countries have taken the initiative to reduce their troops, and the army is also being disarmed in large quantities.

The world is calm, and naturally there is no need for so many troops.

Needless to say, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and those who want to be demobilized can apply.

There is a conscription system, and Lu Bu is not worried about the lack of fresh soldiers.

It's just that a large number of soldiers have retired from the military, which has brought about quite a lot of social problems.

Therefore, Lu Bu here is also according to batches, and it is impossible to reduce it all at once.

Once the army is reduced, it means that they have no money to serve as soldiers.

Follow-up livelihood problems and employment problems must be guaranteed.

If you don't care about anything, it's too chilling, and it's not what Lu Bu did as a great emperor.

In addition to the big problem of resettlement of retired soldiers, a new social problem has also erupted in China today.

Yes, it is precisely aging.

Thanks to the advancement of medical technology, human life expectancy has been greatly increased.

So, now that I have lived past sixty or seventy years old, I am completely surprised.

Many people who died in history are still alive and well.

However, despite the increase in life expectancy, a series of social problems brought about by aging have left many local officials worried.
