68. The Kingdom of Dawn (5)
On September 16, 225 New Earth Calendar, Kaigula led 300,000 troops and a group of henchmen to reach the capital of the Kingdom of Radaz in Bizkais, and on September 25, 225 New Earth Calendar, under the witness of the five cardinals of the Temple of Light, the king of the Kingdom of Ladaz Radaz XXXIII handed over power to Kaigula, and after Kaigula accepted the power, he announced that the Kingdom of Ladaz would be renamed the Kingdom of Dawn, and the city of Bizcais would be renamed the City of Dawn, which marked that Kaigula officially became the king of the kingdom.
On top of the succession, Kegula announced his latest three policies. The first item: The slaves of the whole country will be free from today, and there will be no longer the term slave in the Kingdom of Dawn, and the losses of all slave owners will be compensated by the government. This policy is naturally not surprising to everyone, Kegula has been freeing slaves for many years, but he used to buy slaves at his own expense, and now he is enforcing them by executive order.
The second item: Starting from today, all agricultural taxes will be exempted from the whole country within three years, and all industrial and commercial taxes will be reduced by 30%. However, if you think about it again, it is not surprising, after all, Kaigula is tantamount to robbing other people's kingdoms, and those people who read the good deeds of the former king will definitely not show Kaigula a good face, this kind of tax exemption can buy people's hearts, and this money is worth sending.
The third item: all the original officials of the Kingdom of Van Radaz will be retained, the term of office is three years unchanged, all officials must participate in various studies during these three years, and a new round of assessment will begin after three years, and those who fail to pass the assessment will be dismissed from their official positions and selected for merit. Needless to say, the effect of this article is to calm people's minds.
With these three policies, the hearts of the people of the Radaz Kingdom were much more stable all of a sudden, and at the beginning of the founding of the country, Kaigula didn't want to make any trouble, after all, now nothing is more important than stability, of course, some more important positions Kaigula will still play his own role, and because Radaz 33 took away some officials, these vacant Kaigula will of course be appointed by the elites selected from their own think tanks, and these elites are all trained and believe that they can be qualified for these positions. And these positions are generally key departments, such as taxation, intelligence and other departments, so it can be said that the basic power is still in the hands of Kaigula.
The Kingdom of Ladaz originally had a regular army of five million, because it was on the front line of the death zone, so the number of troops was amazing, according to the general situation, a country with a population of only 90 million could not have so many troops, however, the situation of the Kingdom of Ladaz was special, so it fed such a powerful army, however, this army could not listen to Kaigula's orders now, it is certain that in the coming years, Kaigula needs to organize this army well, without an army, Kaigula is untenable in the Kingdom of Ladaz。
On the third day of the establishment of the Dawn Kingdom, in the early dynasty, Kaigula announced that he would establish a huge chamber of commerce based on his Dawn group, and half of the proceeds of this chamber of commerce would be nationalized, but the kingdom could not interfere with the operation of the chamber of commerce. When the news spread, no one could say anything, after all, the Dawn Kingdom did not invest any money in the Dawn Group, and now it was able to get half of the income of the Dawn Chamber of Commerce, which was not bad.
However, then, all the officials are eyes are big, Kaigula actually announced the establishment of a new state-owned chamber of commerce in the Dawn Kingdom, personnel from the Dawn Chamber of Commerce, this new chamber of commerce is named the Chenfeng Chamber of Commerce, all the officials in the country have a certain share in it, according to the position, as long as they are still above their position, they can get a certain income, if there is no position, then there is no income, and the investment of the Chenfeng Chamber of Commerce can be said to be very amazing, everyone can be sure that this Chenfeng Chamber of Commerce will inevitably become a behemoth in the next ten years, and the money earned must be countless。 In this way, all the officials are well aware. Kaigula is so engaged, the shares are linked to the official position, if the official position is relieved, there will be nothing, this is to ask everyone not to be corrupt, do their own work, money, Kaigula is indispensable to them, but, if the law is violated, then not only the money is gone, but I am afraid that even the life will be gone, the Morrowind Chamber of Commerce is a big chamber of commerce established with the power of the whole country, and the benefits are definitely very considerable, therefore, there is no need to get yourself inside and outside in order to embezzle that little bit of gold coins. You don't need Kaigula to say this, everyone can understand it in their hearts.
With the establishment of the two major chambers of commerce, coupled with Kaigula's personal trip to the Dark Demon Empire and a trade agreement with the black-clothed Shura, the large-scale trade between the Dawn Kingdom and the Dark Demon Empire began. For this point, everyone knows that this is a normal thing, after all, the matter of Kaigula and the black-clothed Shura swearing is already known all over the world, and the two major temples don't even have half a superfluous word about the relationship between them, and no one else dares to say anything, so it is normal for two sworn brother countries to trade, but in this way, countless goods from all countries under the Dark Temple began to pour into the countries under the Temple of Light, and the Temple of Light also had countless goods began to enter the market of the Dark Temple, and the two sides exchanged ideas, and Kaigula and the black-clothed Shura earned countless gold coins in this way。
The products under the dark temple are massive, all kinds of agricultural products, industrial products, fruits and other things, many of which are specialty, these things can be sold at a good price in the temple of light, but the quantity imported in the past is too small, and it has always been the supplies of the big nobles, but now it is different, the number of imports is more, many small nobles and small bourgeoisie can afford to consume, and the amount required is naturally greatly increased. For example, the special fruits of the Dark Temple, such as Qiling fruit, daffodil, pineapple, and star fruit, are all very delicious fruits, which used to be smuggled only by smuggling, but now they are not used, and the price has of course dropped by more than half, but the sales volume has increased by more than ten times, and it is in short supply in the market. Another example is the various industrial products manufactured by the Dark Demon Empire, the market for these things is really too big, although a lot of them were imported from the Yanhuang Kingdom and the Tianguang Empire before, yes, a lot of consumables can be consumed according to the number of people, and the amount consumed every day is massive, just those imported from the Yanhuang Kingdom and the Tianguang Empire were enough at that time? Besides, importing from the western part of the Western Continent to the eastern countries of the Western Continent has to cross hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and the transportation route is too far, and the price is extremely high, but now it is good, and it only needs to be imported from the Dark Demon Empire, and the price has dropped a lot, but the sales volume has increased significantly. The volume of this trade is increasing day by day, allowing the Kingdom of Dawn to earn countless gold coins.
Over the years, the Dawn Chamber of Commerce has established a lot of farms and other sales points in various kingdoms and empires, but now it can finally come in handy, countless goods are distributed through the sales channels of the Dawn Chamber of Commerce, and then sold to the eight empires and countless kingdoms and principalities under the Temple of Light, these massive material sales bring endless wealth to the Dawn Kingdom.
A ton of strange spirit fruit is only sold for 3,000 gold coins in the Spirit Demon Empire, the origin of the Dark Temple, but it costs 15,000 gold coins to export from the Dark Temple to the Dawn Kingdom, and then exported from the Dawn Kingdom to other kingdoms, depending on the distance, the price is as high as 38,000 to 57,000 gold coins a ton, this price definitely makes Kaigula laugh.
Similarly, the origin price of the dragon eye fruit of the Sun Empire under the Temple of Light is only 5,000 gold coins per ton, but the export from the Dawn Kingdom is 20,000 gold coins per ton, and then sold to the Dark Temple, the price is as high as 59,000 gold coins to 88,000 gold coins per ton, which is very satisfactory to the black-clothed Shura.
The Dawn Kingdom earns countless gold coins, and the speed of making money is really making countless kings and emperors blush, but in the last three months of the 225th year of the New Earth calendar, the Dawn Kingdom has earned a full 100 billion gold coins, which is still pure profit, and the speed of earning this wealth is not surprising, but what can they do if they are red-eyed, can Kaigula be provoked by them? With the support of the Temple of Light and the backing, who would dare to provoke it? Similarly, the Dark Demon Empire is also making money and making crazy money, but who would dare to provoke the black-clothed Shura, the killing god? In a word, the two brothers teamed up to rob the wealth of the two great temples.
In addition to commercial trade, Kaigula also began to import a large number of production machinery from the Yanhuang Clan, starting the industrialization process of the Dawn Kingdom, in this regard, the black-clothed Shura also gave a lot of support, and countless industrial products were exported from the Dark Demon Empire to the Dawn Kingdom at low prices, such as cement, steel bars, There are also various other industrial products, these things have helped the Dawn Kingdom quickly establish a series of factories, and with the help of the transportation channels of the Dark Demon Empire, a large number of machinery is transported from the Yanhuang Kingdom to the Dark Demon Empire, and then transferred to the Dawn Kingdom, through a series of waterway transportation, which is much faster and safer than just land transportation.
In addition to grain, a large number of cash crops are not worried about having no market, earning them a lot of gold coins, and the development of industry and commerce has provided countless employment opportunities, so that many farmers have begun to transform into workers, and this is just the beginning. The people who have received tangible benefits have begun to support Kaigula, believing that after a while, all the people will become Kegula's most loyal supporters.
Of course, this is only the beginning, in addition to the development of the economy, all kinds of policies are also very important, but before the overall situation is stabilized, Kaigula will not rashly implement a series of new policies, everything has a transitional period, and when the situation is stabilized, the people support, the new policy can be implemented, looking at the development of the country, the day of the implementation of the new policy is not far away.
With a foothold, the headquarters of the liberation organization has also moved to the Dawn Kingdom, of course, the existence of the liberation organization has not yet been made public, however, no one knows the role of the Liberation Organization in the Dawn Kingdom, through Zhang Zeshan cultivated a large number of talents have been enriched to various departments of the Dawn Kingdom, so that Kaigula's policies can be implemented well, it is precisely because of the support of a large number of talents that everything in Kaigula can be implemented so smoothly, this is also the envy of the black-clothed Shura, he did not have such a good year。 However, Zhang Zeshan has begun to cultivate some black talents, and I believe that in less than five years, there will be enough talents in black Shura.
Talents, no matter what era it is, are the most important, and Zhang Zeshan, Black-clothed Shura, Kaigula, and Xuantian have all fully realized this, so in order to cultivate talents, they have spared no expense.
