Chapter 3: State Administration and Urgency
On Hope Island, Purple Frost City, with its status as the political, economic, and cultural center of the United Nations, as well as its graceful atmosphere and layout that resembles the imperial capital of the empire, ranks first among all human cities in terms of status and representativeness, and is not only not far behind, but even slightly better than the Blood Elf King City.
Similar to the imperial capital, the solemn cabinet building and the iron-blooded five-star building of the military headquarters are still separated from the left and right sides of the palace in the center of Purple Frost City, and also represent the three poles of power in the United Kingdom.
However, the royal palace is the same as the blood elf palace, and there is no decision-making power in any national affairs, only the veto power is left. But the sound that comes from here will not be ignored by the whole kingdom; In a generation where both palaces enjoyed great prestige, power was actually concentrated in the hands of the royal family - only that neither king was in charge.
……
"Greetings to my king."
In front of the Cabinet Building, several guards were solemnly buttoning their chests at the young man who was striding out of the car.
"You guys, you have all said that I am no longer the king of the empire, and I have not yet accepted the throne of the United Kingdom, so you don't need to call me that and salute like this."
The young man solemnly returned the salute and said with a smile.
"By the way, my father-in-law is an old man...... How are you feeling today? ”
He thought for a moment and asked in a low voice.
A strange smile suddenly appeared on the face of one of the guards, and at the same time, he didn't seem to hear the young man's words, and he still said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Chief Administrator has not been in a good mood - since you haven't been to the Cabinet Building for a few months. ”
The sound of eating laughter suddenly came from the hands of his companions covering their mouths, and everyone looked at the young man with all kinds of laughter.
……
"Isn't it......"
The young man's face was suddenly full of bitterness.
"I said a long time ago that power should not be concentrated in the hands of the royal family, and I should not be in charge of things...... Doesn't I also care about his daughter? Recently, I have been preparing for Su Su's illness and going around to investigate the situation, how can I have time to deal with these trivial things in the country......"
He couldn't stop muttering and walked inside, but a faint voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"What? The chairman of our National Advisory Board also knows that he has come to inspect the work? You have come here today to show mercy to help us deal with what trivial matter? ”
The young man looked away in astonishment.
With a large group of people, Su Yuewen, the chief executive of the country, seemed to be passing by at the door. At this time, he was looking at him coldly in the eyes of everyone who respected and smiled at him.
……
"Father—"
"Don't call me father! In the solemn state service, please do not use the title of personal relative, okay? ”
As soon as the young man smiled bitterly and spoke, he was coldly interrupted by Su Yuewen.
Immediately, his face was already full of anger: "I haven't seen anyone for a few months, and you have become a trivial matter in your eyes?" This is our country, and this is your country, and you face your responsibilities like this? ”
"The royal family does not interfere in politics, I agree with that, but when the country needs the royal family to intervene in politics. You are also at ease on the grounds that the royal family does not interfere in politics? How many kids are playing in your palace all day? ”
……
"Blood elves and imperial immigrants have a small fight for three days and a big fight for five days, Your Majesty Zeng doesn't care, I can understand, but what qualifications do you have? Do you still think you are a member of this country, the chairman of this country's advisory board, the king of this country? ”
"Do you think that if you run around for Su Su, I will accept your affection? Your family's affairs are a major matter, but the country's affairs are not? Do you really want a large-scale duel between the blood elves and the imperial immigrants, and you won't stop until the blood is bleeding? Say what you don't like anymore, I see. You are not qualified to sit on this throne either! ”
The more Su Yuewen spoke, the more angry he became, he looked at the young man coldly, and he reprimanded one after another.
……
"Yes, yes, you're right. Am I not here...... This one...... Look, don't you go in first? It's not good for everyone to be clubbed here......"
The young man salivated and laughed in front of the chief executive of the kingdom from the people and the crowd looking at their wise and martial king who was reprimanded in public by his father-in-law, and they all showed funny eyes that did not dare to laugh.
"You ......"
Su Yuewen looked at the lazy young man and suddenly became angry.
"You come with me!"
It took a long time for him to seem to calm down. He took a deep breath, beckoned to the young man, and said hatefully in a tone that almost tickled his teeth.
……
"Notify the Ministry of Agriculture. I did not attend their meetings, and asked them to report to me after the national agricultural work was put into a document. ”
Immediately, he instructed a secretary-like person behind him, and while the secretary nodded respectfully, the chief executive of the state was already walking towards the depths of the building with the young man under the respectful gaze of everyone.
~~~~~~~~~
"Father, how has the country been in recent months? Nothing major happened, right? ”
In the simple but solemn office, Su Yuewen looked at the young man and seemed to be a little noisy, and hurriedly poured him a cup of tea, with a slight smile in his eyes.
The young man was busy with everything, but he asked.
"You know to ask?"
Despite the kindness in his eyes, Su Yuewen seemed to have entered the role of a strict father, and he already glanced at the young man with a slight smile.
"Everything is fine, the wind and rain are smooth, and the country and the people are safe. The officials were also very conscientious and honest, because the country did not have an aristocracy at the beginning of the country, and there were no political parties. There is no complicated political environment in China, there are no annoying things in the country, there are few power struggles, and everyone is working hard. ”
After the young man smiled bitterly again and admitted his mistake, Su Yuewen finally spoke slowly.
……
"In terms of industry, our level is similar to that of the Empire, and even more so in some ...... For example, in the area of military science and technology and space application technology, it is slightly better because of the presence of someone. ”
He glanced at the young man again, but his eyes were full of pride and pride, either for the achievements of the kingdom, or for the ability of his son-in-law.
"In terms of agriculture, this year is a bumper harvest year, and we can continue to harvest a good harvest - the climate on Hope Island is also very good, not to mention that it is extremely suitable for us to live, and it is also the best season for crop growth from beginning to end, which is extremely suitable for agriculture."
"In terms of food, we didn't just feed our own stomachs. Moreover, our daily food supply is as abundant as that of the Empire, and we have already considered exporting the surplus of too much food to the barren land of Shirahoshi in exchange for all kinds of minerals necessary for our great development. ”
……
"In terms of commerce, the kingdom has gradually begun to prosper and flourish. The Government is currently preparing to issue a national currency and thoroughly establish the national financial system. But the National Citizens Bank is arguing over what to print on those banknotes—"
"On the front side, it is confirmed that the heads of you and His Majesty Zeng should be used as symbols, but on the reverse side, half of them think that the purple background of the national flag should be used as a symbol, and half of them think that it should be marked by a better purple background blood rose frost flower."
"The negative side doesn't matter, but the positive side shouldn't do that...... What, a cult of personality or something. It's really unnecessary. ”
The young man suddenly said with a wry smile.
Su Yuewen looked at the young man obliquely: "This is the resolution of the National Citizens Bank that has passed the review of the Public Congress-Why, didn't someone say that he was not His Highness, let alone His Majesty?" Is this an attempt to exercise the royal veto? ”
……
The young man suddenly changed the topic with an embarrassed face: "Okay, okay, I don't care about these things, you always continue, continue." What about the military construction of the country? ”
Su Yuewen snorted lightly.
"I am not qualified to take charge of the military aspect, but the headquarters of the three armed services is under the control of General Lin and Deputy General Yang and Deputy Chief Lin, so there will be no problems. Oh yes, feedback from the Ministry of Construction. At the request of the headquarters of the three armed services, we completed the construction of the air-ground integrated defense fortifications around the island more than 10 days ago -- and now Hope Island can be said to be impregnable. ”
He said slowly again, and then. He frowned.
……
"The most annoying thing right now is the issue of civil affairs. Imperial immigrants, plus the White Star Relic, plus the Blood Elves—tens of millions of people to manage, and the place is big enough. But effective administration is lacking! ”
"On the one hand, because the officials on the imperial side did not have the generosity and chivalry of the people, the base of those who came here was not large. And Shirahoshi is here...... The administrators' knowledge of modern administration is also in shambles. ”
"As a result, we have a constant shortage of administrative officers. Although emergency training has been provided, administrative skills cannot be trained by simple training, and some ridiculous things often happen in local governments. ”
"I can't do anything about this, so I can only let them do it while they learn...... Practice brings true knowledge, and theory is linked to practice. ”
The young man immediately spread his hands.
……
"yes, that's what I thought, too."
Su Yuewen nodded in annoyance, and then, he looked at the young man in a strange way: "However, the books you have recently made such as "Administrative Management" and "Political Economy" are quite practical, and they are also full of insights, and I have ordered all state officials to study one book carefully——"
"I really don't know where you stinky boy got so much strange knowledge, and you haven't been a government official, how can you know so much? Practice also brings true knowledge...... Theory meets practice? Why do you always feel like you know everything, and you still act like a philosopher? Are you really born to know the legends of our people? ”
He shook his head and smiled.
……
"This ......"
The young man's face was suddenly full of embarrassment.
Just as he was thinking about how to explain, Su Yuewen frowned again in the young man's embarrassed look, and even began to look at the young man's face full of anger: "Then the first one will let you fool the past with those books, but what about the second?" The blood elves have conflicts with the immigrants of the empire from time to time, and not only the local governments are anxious, but I am also anxious! ”
"The matter of the blood elves, you have been delaying it for so long, what are you going to do?"
He asked angrily.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it. On the way here, I also thought about it, I can't leave such a time bomb in the country, I will persuade Brother Zeng to come forward together to coordinate this matter, until this matter is reached, we will not be relieved to go. ”
The young man replied again in embarrassment.
……
"Let's go? Where are you going? ”
Su Yuewen suddenly wondered.
"Elven West Continent."
The young man replied softly, but it made the head of the country's brow furrow again.
"Urgently?"
He seemed to understand what the young man was saying, and his expression was full of seriousness, and he asked softly.
"Yes, urgently."
The young man also nodded lightly with a serious face. (To be continued......)
