Chapter 16: Ruobing's Wisdom
Andy kissed Ruo Bing's cheek, which made the innocent little girl blush immediately, and he said, "Ruo Bing, now that what you said has basically been achieved, what should we do next?"
Ruo Bing leaned into Andy's arms and closed his eyes, and only after a while did he open his eyes and said: "Now that Brother Andy, you have become the Holy Son of the Ancestral Temple, this is an excellent opportunity for us, I think it is necessary to continue to expand your prestige and influence, and in terms of prestige, you can cooperate with the temple to open nursing homes and orphanages, and strive to open nursing homes and orphanages all over the continent."
In terms of influence, we will increase commercial cooperation with the nobles of various countries, and the franchise chain stores and regional agency system you mentioned last time is a very good way to increase the construction of the Higra industrial zone, vigorously suppress the output of the landlords and lords on the land, liberate the population into our factories, and sell our goods to the whole world, and with a solid chain of interests, we can draw most of the nobles to our side, and then control their funds through the banks and securities exchanges that are about to be opened, so that you will achieve the financial control you mentioned, and whoever you want to go bankrupt overnight will go bankrupt, and then you will be the most powerful person on the mainlandAll of them will try their best to flatter you, compliment you, and please you. β
"My Ruobing is amazing, come here as a reward for you. Andy took a bite and kissed Ruobing's pink little face, bringing back the shyness that the little girl had so hard to get away.
"Brother Andy, this is just the first step, you once told me that there is a people called the Jews in the otherworld, they are very smart and good at collecting wealth, but they do not have their own armed strength and country and are constantly being cut wool, we have to avoid this situation. β
Ruo Bing thought for a moment and said again: "We must build a powerful and invincible army and a vast land of free disposal, only in this way can the people who steal our property dispel their thoughts, and at the same time use the carrot and stick you said and the capitalist system to finally unify this world!"
"Well said!" Andy applauded, clapping his hands, and the two of them discussed the details for a long time.
The two talked about Ouyang Yu's body, Andy asked how to make the Kadesh Kingdom chaotic in terms of economy, so as to shake her rule, this is because the Ancestral Temple suffered a big loss on Ouyang Yu's body, although he wanted to take revenge back, but this time the Temple sent a large army to openly capture the owner of a principality, which made many countries dissatisfied with the actions of the Ancestral Temple.
Ouyang Yu is a necromancer, but he is also the ruler of a principality, belonging to the feudal ruling class at the top of the pyramid, and the Ancestral Temple must first obtain the consent of the Continental Council composed of the main countries of the continent if she wants to arrest her, and the Council will come forward to announce the removal of Ouyang Yu's title of Grand Duke before she can be arrested, but the Ancestral Temple left the Council aside and arrested without authorization, which angered all the members of the Council.
This is the struggle between the divine power and the royal power in order to compete for the dominance of the continent, the two sides are currently in a delicate balance, and do not want the contradiction to intensify, this time the ancestral temple openly arrested Ouyang Yu is also to test the council's attitude towards this matter, if it is ignored, it proves that the members of the council are weak and can be bullied, and the temple will take further action, if the attitude is tough, then you will know where the bottom line of the members of the Dao Council is, and in the future, try to play the side ball, do not touch the bottom line, and wait for the opportunity, so the ancestral temple secretly said that it would not openly send troops to arrest Ouyang Yu, but also said that if Ouyang Yu left the Kadesh Kingdom and her principality, it would send a master to secretly arrest him, as a member of the Compromise Council, acceded to this request.
The southern nobles of the Kadesh Kingdom are dissatisfied with Catherine's rule and have contradictions with her, so I think it is better to take advantage of their advantage that the south is the main grain producing area, and after the autumn harvest, they hoard a large amount of grain to prevent a single wheat from entering the market, causing artificial famine, and then Catherine will definitely buy grain from neighboring countries in order to maintain her rule.
Then you and those nobles use their influence to make the merchants of the surrounding countries deliberately raise the price of food to double the price of food, Catherine will definitely buy it, and the price of the purchased grain should not be too high when it is sold to the commoners, otherwise the commoners will not be able to afford it, at this time, the southern nobles will buy grain on a large scale, only let a small amount of grain flow to the commoners to ensure that they do not starve to death, and the grain bought back will be transported to the hands of those merchants who sell grain and sell it again.
In this way, it will not be long before the money in Catherine's hands will be insufficient, and the commoners who have no food will definitely be dissatisfied and rebel, so let the southern nobles come forward and send food to the hungry civilians at a low price, or even without money, and at the same time spread rumors together with the Temple of Ancestors that the food production was reduced because the kingdom of Kadesh was controlled by evil necromancers, and I think Catherine's face would be very beautiful at that time. β
Ruobing's plan is very good and has a good chance of success, Andy immediately plans to adopt her plan when he hears it, and then the two talk for a while before parting.
The next day, Andy and Ruobing went to the grove behind the Duke's Palace, pushed open a rockery and entered a secret passage, where Andy was conducting a research that could change the pattern of war on the mainland.
The two walked through the long passage to more than ten meters underground, and the guards guarding here were all dead soldiers of the Victor family, and Duke Victor also knew that Andy had set up a laboratory here, but he didn't care what he was studying.
Andy and Ruobing walked into a spacious research room, a man and a woman were arguing about something inside, and after seeing Andy, the two stopped arguing and saluted him together, the woman looked thirty years old, she looked good, and her figure was also like a royal sister, while the man was Darkro, who Ouyang Yu thought was killed by Andy.
It turned out that after Dacro was arrested, Andy hadn't used the torture yet, but he said it all as soon as he asked, for this kind of research-type magician, Andy thought it was a precious resource to kill it too pity, so he proposed to solicit it, but he didn't expect Dacros to agree to it, and he worked for Andy very undisciplinedly.
Andy walked over and asked, "How's the research on the hedron gun I requested?"
The woman who argued with Dacros is named Winslet, and Dacros is also a female magician who doesn't have much talent in magic, but is very researched in magic array and alchemy, she is in her forties this year, and she is about the same as she is thirty years old, Andy's many beauty products are from her hands, and he recruited them to study for him, maybe it was a group of people who unexpectedly got along after the two met, and they were never married for the study of magic, and they actually had a little meaning to each other, but Dacro, who had a weaker personality, was often deflated in front of Winslet, who had a more spicy personality, and the research was mainly based on Winslet, who was better at alchemyγ
Winslet picked up an item that was very similar to the Huaxia Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and said, "I have made two prototype guns, but these two sample guns still have a lot of shortcomings that need to be improved." β
"I'll see. Andy took the sample gun and looked at it over and over, it was basically similar to the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle in terms of appearance, with a long trigger on the body, a mechanical sight, and a Mitsubishi bayonet, but Andy couldn't understand the internal structure, and handed it back to Winslet and said: "Well, that's good, but you have to hurry up and complete the research and development of the spar gun as soon as possible, and there are still spar cannons that you need to study." β
Dacro patted his chest and said, "Lord Andy, please rest assured, the principle of the hedron gun and the hedron cannon is similar, as long as the research of the hedron gun is completed, the hedron cannon will be able to be studied soon." β
"Okay, just tell me what you need, and if I'm not there, tell Ruobing, and she'll provide you with everything you need. β
"Yes, Lord Andy. βΓ2γ
