Chapter 262: 'Charity' Activities
Flower Tree World, Totem Clan, Cloud Atlas Kingdom Capital, Lantai City.
It is a beautiful and elegant city, and it is also a rare unwalled structure in ancient environments. The city's frozen rivers are like ornaments, and you can see trees that are still green in winter, flowers that bloom in winter, and buildings such as houses are full of harmony with nature.
The purpose of the Yuntu Kingdom is neutrality, and there has not been any war for more than two hundred years, because the domestic totem division is elite, and various technologies are among the best in the world of flowers and trees, even if the resources are not abundant, it is still a country with good living conditions.
However, even if the national strength is among the best in the world of flowers and trees, because the technological environment of the world of flowers and trees is similar to that of ancient times, there are still all kinds of poor people. In the winter season, there will be no shortage of civilians dying of hunger and cold. Coupled with the cold environment, every winter, there is a lack of vitality everywhere.
This year, however, the situation has changed dramatically. Solar street lamps that lit up all night long appeared in Lantai City and other cities, and this kind of light for the assistance of the Great Cadres was rapidly spreading in the Yuntu Kingdom and even other countries that respected the Great Cadres as their suzerains. Light pierces darkness and brings a sense of security.
In several government offices and squares in Lantai City, huge light signboards were erected, and there was also a loudspeaker system to broadcast news. A large number of people in Lantai City gathered in these places, either curious or eager to look at the soldiers who distributed the goods.
There are some differences between these distribution points, some of which are aimed at the poor, distributing warm clothing and some food. There are not many such distribution points in Lantai City, and after all, this is the national capital, and the number of poor people is relatively small. But in other cities, villages and towns, the poorer the place, the more people distribute winter supplies. There are also distribution points for the general population. The main thing is to send some special gifts, tobacco, alcohol, tea, candy and so on.
It is completely a well-known charity activity and even promotion and publicity activities on the earth.
It's just that what disgraces the name of charity is that the broadcasting system of similar distribution points is always proclaiming the glory of Daqian, and that this is a gift from the emperor of Daqian.
The kings, officials, and nobles of the Cloud Atlas Kingdom didn't care about this, after all, it wasn't a glorious thing. However, having decided to recognize Daqian as the suzerain, there is certainly no way to oppose such a thing, and after all, such a thing is not a bad thing for them.
After deciding that Da Qian was irresistible, they never intercepted Da Qian's propaganda spaceship, so that Da Qian had planted an impression of strength and superiority in the hearts of most people in their country. At this time, it just makes this impression stronger, and there is more gratitude.
In such a situation. The Yuntu Kingdom did not object, and even participated in the same way, whether it was the imperial court or the nobles who also joined the ranks of relief, they used to be dismissive of the common people, but with the example of the great cadres, whether it was to curry favor with the great cadres or for the sake of the people's hearts, they could not fail to react.
In any case, the civilians and poor people of the Cloud Atlas Kingdom have had a much better winter this winter. Not only the Cloud Atlas Kingdom, but other countries that have taken refuge in Daqian are all continuing similar actions. Daqian's reputation also quickly took root in the world of flowers and trees.
Many times, the people don't care who the rulers are, they care about how their lives are. The arrival of Daqian can be said to have changed their lives immediately. Let life go in the direction of stability and prosperity, and the people's impression of Daqian will naturally become more intimate from the powerful, mysterious and terrifying.
In addition to the relief and all kinds of strange and special gifts, Daqian publicized medium and high-yield grain seeds, better and more convenient technology. Although the people of the flower and tree world are not aware of it, they can't help but look forward to it.
In addition to the poor and commoners benefiting and expecting, the nobles and even the king also had expectations. Daqian's superior standard of living and all kinds of science and technology are also what they desire. Even if totem technology exists, it is difficult to popularize the high-end of totem technology.
Even the major nobles are rarely able to enjoy the full blessing of totem technology, similar to air conditioning and other things, although there are ways to experiment with totem technology, but the cost is extremely expensive, even the nobles have not much to afford. Not to mention the various enjoyments in other aspects.
The acceptance of the great cadres made the life of the king and nobles also quickly become more comfortable. The major merchants of Daqian have set up branches in the big cities of the flower and tree world, and all kinds of electrical appliances and even daily necessities have quickly poured into their lives.
Until now, various electrical appliances have only been used to generate electricity from solar energy, as well as generators and high-energy batteries. However, after the winter, facilities such as power stations will start to be built in Flower Tree World. In addition, the construction of railway and highway networks will begin simultaneously to provide more job opportunities for civilians and improve the scientific and technological level of the whole society. In this regard, many high-level executives of the flower and tree world are very much looking forward to it.
Of course, Daqian is certainly not here to do good deeds. Zhang Hao is not one of the emperors in ancient China who wanted to save face for his subjects. His aim is that even in the face of the subject country, the suzerain, not to mention exploitation, at least must obtain great benefits.
Just like these vassal countries in the world of flowers and trees, the right to issue money is controlled by the big cadres, and this alone is enough for the big cadres to take enough interests, not to mention that there are other measures. With the social environment of the world of flowers and trees, even if Daqian uses economic means, he can easily play them to death.
In addition to providing relief to the common people and the poor, it is the contribution of the cadres. Any future construction will require the subject country to fund its own funds, even if it requires loans from the DPRK. In addition, Daqian's banknotes must be able to be exchanged for various precious metals and materials in the subject country, and the income from highways and power stations must be shared with Daqian, and so on. Perhaps some of the wise people in these subject countries feel that something is wrong, but they know the specifics.
Even if they know it in the future, they can't blame the big cadres, after all, the big cadres have also paid, and their living standards have also improved.
Since it is a subject country, it will certainly not be able to enjoy the treatment of a national. The means prepared by many think tanks for the Flower Tree World can definitely sell them and let them count the money. It's just that many think tanks are so bothered, but they may not be able to work hard.
After all, the most valuable thing in the world of flowers and trees to Daqian is the totem technology of the totem clan, and when the totem technology is in hand, with its strong strength, Daqian can deal with them as much as he wants, and there is no need to play any twists and turns with them at that time.
And in the final analysis, no matter how ugly Emperor Zhang looks, he has indeed improved the living standards of his subjects, so he will not feel any guilt.
On this day, many people in Lantai City were gathered and began to clean up and decorate the entire city with the city guards. Many people are puzzled, there is no festival recently. Moreover, the solemn attitude of the imperial court this time, as well as the intensity of decoration, will surpass the grandest ceremonies in the past.
Ordinary people had no way of knowing the reason, so they could only act according to the orders of the officials, and some capable people quietly inquired about the news, but they could not get specific information except that they knew that there were extremely distinguished guests coming. In this way, it took three days for the entire Lantai City to take on a new look and become more and more beautiful and elegant.
On the morning of the fourth day, a huge water-like portal appeared over Lantai City, and then the North Underworld flew out of it, and the behemoth volume brought a large shadow to cover a city, and many people stood on the street, and couldn't help but exclaim, looking at the behemoth in the air with shocked faces.
They are no strangers to spaceships, and they have seen a lot of them in the past six months. But a powerful but extremely beautiful spaceship like the North Underworld had never been seen before, although there were no weapons to be seen, just the sense of oppression and impact brought by the volume made people breathe lighter.
In the bridge of the North Underworld, Zhang Hao stood in front of the window and glanced at the city below, noticing the many ceremonial and festive decorations below, the corners of Zhang Hao's mouth hooked, if it wasn't for his special request not to disturb the people, I'm afraid that the Cloud Atlas Kingdom would directly ask the people of the whole city to welcome his arrival.
Looking at those festive decorations and watching everything cleaned up, Emperor Zhang inexplicably thought of the scene of welcoming the arrival of the leader on the earth.
"The people of Yuntu Kingdom are extremely grateful and reverent to the Kingdom and His Majesty, and they are all looking forward to being able to witness the face of heaven, listen to His Majesty's teachings, and receive His Majesty's blessings. Even if His Majesty is unwilling to disturb the people, as long as the news of His Majesty's visit to Lantai City is announced later, the people of Yuntu Kingdom will also regard Lantai City as a holy city and will come here to pay homage to the holy relics. ”
Not far behind Zhang Hao's side, an elegant-looking middle-aged totem clan said with a sincere face. This is the minister of the Yuntu Kingdom, above the ten thousand people under one person in the Yuntu Kingdom. Regardless of other abilities, just being proficient in Chinese, especially being able to speak such flattering words in Chinese, shows the language skills. In particular, his expression and tone of voice were as if everything he said came from the heart and was the truth.
Even Emperor Zhang couldn't tell if this guy was too thick-skinned, or self-hypnosis, or that kind of purebred leading the way party. However, Zhang Hao doesn't need to distinguish between true and false, anyway, as long as the strength of the great cadres is still there, even if there are any different thoughts, the other party will be buried in the bottom of his heart.
"The improvement of the subject country has just begun, and it is not yet the time to enjoy the worship of the people. Moreover, similar to you Yuntu court officials and nobles, enjoying the support of the people, we have the responsibility to protect them and let them live a stable life, as the suzerain, enjoying your worship, we have the responsibility to make your life better, which does not require the people to bow and worship. Zhang Hao said very brightly and majestically.
"Your Majesty and the heart of the kingdom are truly humiliating." The prime minister sighed.
Zhang Hao smiled and didn't talk nonsense. From the moment he decided to come to the Flower Tree World to investigate, and after selecting the Yuntu Kingdom, which had the firmest attitude and the best strength among the subject countries, the prime minister rushed directly to the Three Kingdoms World to serve at any time, and Zhang Hao could be regarded as having experienced this guy's lip service.
Even Zhang Hao doubted that the prime minister's totem pattern ability was related to persuasion and spiritual infection.
Yu Guang noticed something, Zhang Hao looked at the east of the city, there, even in the ice and snow, a huge and majestic building was still under construction, what attracted Zhang Hao's attention was a huge statue, a metal statue more than 30 meters high turned out to be Zhang Hao's image.
