Chapter 118: Tom's Countermeasures
This is also part of the reason why the last emperors of the earth dynasty had no rights.
As an important force for the prince to seize the heir, the relatives have always played a heavy role in the history of the local dynasty.
In the history of the Earth Dynasty, the best defense against foreign relatives was the Sun and Moon Dynasty.
Lao Zhu, the founding emperor of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, after carefully studying the history of the previous dynasties of the Earth Dynasty, learned from the pain and formulated a set of strict policies for the emperor to marry wives to prevent the division of power.
Although Lao Zhu's set of methods was ultimately difficult to avoid the differentiation of the emperor's power when the power of the old and new emperors was handed over, it did prevent the large-scale differentiation of the imperial power among his relatives.
Until the last nominal unification emperor of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, the old crooked neck emperor of Coal Mountain, the Sun Moon Dynasty did not have the Han Dynasty Lu clan, the Jin Dynasty Wang clan, and the Tang Dynasty Wu clan that seriously affected the imperial power.
Even so, the relatives of the Sun and Moon Dynasty inevitably divided a small number of Ming emperors
Although European history is different from that of the local dynasty, the fundamental reason is that the European elders and the local dynasty are both human beings and understand the most basic rules of operation of power.
They are all people, and people go to high places and water flows to low places.
In the eyes of the old Europeans, Tom's children will definitely try their best to fight for the legacy left by Tom the Great when Tom is old or sick.
Although there is only one throne, Tom now has many factories in different industries, and even if Tom's children have no hope of competing for the throne, they will compete for the various factories left by Tom the Great and compete for different industrial chains.
In order to claim more of Tom the Great's inheritance, Tom's children must use the power of their relatives to fight for the inheritance.
There must be repayment, Tom's children have the help of their relatives, so after the second emperor ascends the throne,
Regardless of which child eventually ascended the throne, all of Tom's children had relied on their relatives, and they had to repay part of the "loans" from their relatives—more rights.
After Tom's death, the American Empire will inevitably go through the stage of internal princely seizure of power, and at that time, the European aristocracy will have the opportunity to enter the center of power in the American Empire.
The European aristocracy was convinced that man was a creature of desire.
Even if Tom's children knew that their father's business would be ruined with the help of their relatives, they would borrow it.
The greater the foundation laid by Tom's old father, the more these children will desire the throne and give up more things for it.
When the European nobles married Tom, Tom was healthy and fine, and the European nobles even hoped that Tom would live a few more years of health and wisdom and lay more foundations.
The bigger Tom's inheritance, the more serious the seizure of power between Tom's children,
If Tom's children want to seize power, they inevitably need to rely on the power of their mother's family, that is, the power of their relatives, like the princes of the earthly dynasty.
When Emperor Tom the Great was critically ill or died, it was the time when the European aristocracy and capital forces entered the center of power in the American Empire.
This is also the fundamental reason why all spheres of influence in Europe can affect the aristocracy of the United States, and after the news of Tom the Great's search for the empress was released, they instantly defected.
The more Tom the Great laid the foundation for his American Empire, the more attractive the position of the American Emperor, the more fierce the competition for power between the sons of the Emperor Tom after Tom's death, and all the European nobles who could marry the Smith family could share more power after Tom's death.
All the European elders who can join forces with the Smith family will not only not suppress Tom the Great, but they will also ensure that Tom the Great's power continues to expand.

Before the Smith family's marriage seats were exhausted, all the European nobles would try to rely on marriage to enter the Smith family's power system.
How will Tom deal with the menacing marriage offensive from Europe?
Tom also thought about the attitude of the old Europeans towards marriage, and understood all the consequences that would lead to marriage.
In fact, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for Tom, and only after Tom declines will it affect Tom's children's power.
Even if it was a hundred years from now, Tom didn't want his inheritance to be carved up by Europe.
Even if your children seize power, after all, it is the inheritance of the Smith family, and capital and power are still circulated internally.
It would be a lot of trouble to let Europe get mixed up, and Tom Smith's ultimate goal will be difficult to accomplish in a generation.
Tom must overcome the obstacles for his own children, his only designated heir, and deal with the problems that other children can use to compete with their relatives.
So how does Tom avoid dividing the power of the Smith family among the people who marry the Smith family?
Just after analyzing the history and reasons for the seizure of power by so many relatives, Tom has discovered the Achilles heel of the seizure of power by relatives, that is, the seizure of power by marriage.
The core of the seizure of power by relatives is - children!
The relatives help the remaining children of the royal family, which is the key to the relatives being able to seize power.
This is the legal basis and destiny of relatives to seize power.
For Tom Smith, a person who understands modern chemical technology and fertility knowledge,
In order to prevent the division of power, it couldn't be easier to give your children a common sense lesson on fertility knowledge.
As long as Tom Smith makes the people of the Smith family, like the Sun and Moon Dynasty, strictly forbidden to have children with any powerful and powerful person of the opposite sex, he can fundamentally crack down on relatives who rely on marriage to seize power.
But the question is, human nature, if someone really can't hold back and unites with the European aristocracy or the upstart of American capital to have children, what should be done at that time?
At that time, Tom could only say sorry to the poor baby.
For the sake of the expansion of the capital, Tom has directly or indirectly caused at least a six-figure population to disappear from the face of the earth prematurely.
A crystallization of love, with that ridiculous blood relationship, can stop Tom Smith from expanding his capital?
Tiger poison does not eat children is right,
But the tiger is a beast with no higher education, and Tom is a modern man with a complete education.
The more perfect and comprehensive a person's education is, the more fickle they should be.
Tom, who is already sitting in the position of the only real capitalist in the world, is the person who has the most hope of bringing society into the final stage of capitalism.
As long as Tom's industry continues to remain absolutely dictatorial, even if Tom does not become the ultimate producer of science fiction, the descendants of the Smith family can become similar people sooner or later.
When a person or family who controls the global industry emerges, they do not need to roll up with their peers, and all the productive forces can be highly concentrated and move forward in the direction of developing productive forces.
Then, Tom's ultimate dream, that is, the ultimate dream of mankind, can be quickly stepped into the premise that everyone in the world works 18 hours and lives 25 years on average.
