"At present, the situation in the Empire is still unstable, and the treasury is so empty, most of the gold lent that I have managed to raise has been handed over to the divisions loyal to me in the Middle Realm, as well as the 1st Guards Division and the 2nd Guards Division that is being rebuilt.

For example, the New Army has allocated a lot of gold and lunt to the past.

Although Viscount Gladstone attaches great importance to the affairs of the Agricultural Bank and the Agricultural Cooperative, how can a salt-free cook cook delicious food, and the Earl of Cullen and Earl Stewart uphold a neutral attitude, and the strength of me and the Eugene family alone cannot convince the Alliance to continue to support these two institutions."

Speaking of this, Dorothea's expression was full of helplessness.

"If that's the case, it's easy to say that this matter is easy to solve, and it's not easy to solve if it's not easy to solve.

Your Majesty, fundamentally speaking, the meaning of the existence of the business alliance is to unite together to fight against the oppression of the conservatives, and the members of the alliance can move towards the same goal with the same hatred and hatred in the case of external oppression by the conservatives, but after our victory, everyone loses the influence of external forces, and naturally some thoughts will arise in their own favor.

Under these circumstances, it is almost impossible to convince the members of the League to continue to give selflessly to you, which is why I asked you to form a bicameral parliament immediately after that night.

Only profit and power can tie them to your chariot in that case, and let their power work for you, thus securing the basis of your rule.

Otherwise, without the power of the alliance, after the victory, the conservative forces will be destroyed, and your influence on the officials of the five major agencies is obviously not as good as that of Earl Cullen and Earl Stewart, in that case, what you want to do depends on the meaning of the enlightened forces led by Earl Cullen and Earl Stewart.

Just like now, the Agricultural Bank of China and the agricultural cooperatives have no vital interest in most of the alliance members, and they will naturally not support your opinion."

Hearing that the Eugene family was powerless about this important matter, Xia Lin's heart moved, and then he seriously analyzed his thoughts on this matter for Dorothea.

When it came to the changes in the alliance, Dorothea didn't pay too much attention to Xia Lin's words that seemed to be a little off-topic, and her expression became more and more solemn and confused:

"Is it really that serious? Viscount Charling?"

"Of course, Your Majesty, there is an opposition and unity in all things, and the only thing that affects this opposition and unity is interests, and conflicts of interest are contradictions, and contradictions are different according to the relationship between different interests and their size.

Before victory, the conflict of interests between the enlightened and the conservative is the greatest, so this contradiction is also the highest priority, in order to solve this contradiction and obtain the benefits they want, the enlightened nobles can revere you as the leader and banner, so as to unite their forces.

But after this contradiction is resolved, instead of the conflict between you and the many ministers and nobles, your power and influence will increase, and the power and influence of the officials of the five major agencies will be weakened, in this case, they will only turn you into a statue in the Dragon Sleep Palace, and will not be as respectful and obedient to you as before!"

Xia Lin briefly explained his thoughts, and then left Dorothea to think for herself, his logic did not have too many problems, except for two points, which exaggerated the contradictions and conflicts between imperial power and official power, while ignoring the external influence that still existed outside.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to separate Queen Dorothea from the members of the Alliance and let things go his way.

"So if the interests are big enough, Viscount Xia Lin will also have a conflict with me?"

Dorothea pondered for a moment, but suddenly stopped and asked Xia Lin a tricky question.

Looking at Dorothea's calm golden eyes with a hint of questioning, Xia Lin carefully organized the wording and replied:

"Of course, Your Majesty, if there is a large enough interest, even I will have a conflict with you, and even turn my back on you, but I think there should be no such interest in the world at the moment, because only you, Her Majesty the Empress of the great Sassen Empire, can

Realize the world I envisioned at the beginning.

This is a promise that no other person or force in the world can give me, and as long as you do not break this promise, I will always be your shield and sword."

「……」

"Shields and swords? What I want is a strong Sassen Empire, and as long as you do that, I will always support you."

Dorothea and Xia Lin looked at each other calmly for a moment at this answer, and then a smile appeared on their delicate faces.

Xia Lin felt that he should have successfully passed this hurdle, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, Xia Lin continued:

"Of course, I don't think this empire is very far away, and the purpose of this trip is to piece together a piece of the puzzle of this empire.

But to get back to business, Your Majesty, since the strength of the alliance is no longer enough to rely on, it is actually very simple for you to solve the problem of the Agricultural Bank and the Agricultural Cooperatives, that is, the Imperial Family will start to form an Imperial Royal Agricultural United Company, and introduce some external funds in the name of the Imperial Family to promote the development of the Agricultural Bank and the Agricultural Cooperatives."

"How?"

It's not the first time that Dorothea has heard such a statement from Xia Lin as a company or a joint company, the Imperial Capital Construction Company that started with Xia Lin, after gathering the strength of the members of the alliance from all sides, has begun the road repair plan in the imperial capital and the surrounding areas, turning most of Helgana into a large construction site.

The later Imperial Coal and Iron Company had already prepared the site, and the ships belonging to this company on the Seine were loaded with all kinds of supplies and tools, and along with the fact that many employees had been employed in Hurghana, they went to the Steelridge Valley, which had recently become famous in the Imperial Capital Daily, to carry out various construction work.

Faintly, through these large and growing companies, Dorothea could already see the general appearance of the factory in which hundreds of people worked together that Xia Lin had previously described.

"It's still the same old thing, although Her Majesty has little money in her hands, but there are many plots of land, which will not be auctioned off for a while, and it is impossible to use all of them as rewards.

His Majesty could select some of the plots and shops in the city to be used for the main buildings of the Agricultural Bank and the Agricultural Cooperative, as well as the Royal Agricultural Union.

The estates and land outside the city, the parts that the royal estate could not manage, could be classified as the Royal Agricultural Corporation, and an attempt was made to implement a contract rental system, so that landless farmers could rent these temporarily vacant fields at a relatively reasonable or even temporarily free price, and wait until the autumn harvest to get their due return from their harvest, so as to reduce the management burden of the royal family.

As for the rest of the funds needed to run the Royal Agricultural Complex, it can be handed over to the nobles who are interested in the development of the estate and agriculture, so as to appease some of the nobles who were originally inclined to the conservative and use their power to your advantage.

If Her Majesty is worried that the nobles are unwilling to take a stake in the Royal Agricultural Corporation, we in the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, which operate a distillery, a sugar and salt factory, and a paper mill, have a great demand for all kinds of agricultural raw materials, and are willing to contribute some funds and even managers to subscribe for some shares."

Xia Lin was already familiar with this kind of thing, and in a few words, he arranged the specific structure of the Imperial Agricultural United Company, and at the same time pleaded with the empress as if he was worried about it.
