Different World Development Manual Chapter 226: Afternoon tea
[ps.225 encounters harmony]
In Lanchester City, the nearby old forces' rebellion has been eliminated, and the entire Lanchester City has returned to normal.
The tens of thousands of captured prisoners were directly thrown into hard work by Frankie, Duchess of Windsor.
She is not as civilized as the people on earth like Huaxia. These captured guys are all excellent labor, and they don't need to pay or feed them too much.
It can prevent their energetic rebellion and develop the economy in the territory. Why not do it.
Xu Lin was invited to Lanchester's castle and looked at this magnificent castle. Many places are equipped with modern furniture and appliances from China.
While outside the castle, Xu Lin discovered that a lot of solar energy was installed on the top of Lanchester's castle, probably to power the entire castle.
It is the first time that Xu Lin has entered a noble's castle. Although it is not as magnificent as the imperial palace and the palace, Frankie's palace is already very luxurious.
Xu Lin sat on the sofa and looked around. By this time Frankie had already washed his body and asked the priest to treat the wounds on his body with magic spells, put on a set of gorgeous noble costumes, and carried them personally. A tea set was brought up carefully.
Gently place the tea tray on the coffee table, and lift the teapot to fill Xu Lin with a cup of love full of tea.
He held up his hands, took a few mouthfuls, blushed his cheeks, a smile appeared on his face, and whispered softly: "Commander Xu, please use tea."
The sofa and coffee table are all purchased by China, including a copper-colored ceiling fan on the top of the head.
Xu Lin responded with tea, "Your Excellency, thank you."
Frankie pulled the hem of her skirt at this time, and slowly dropped her **** on the sofa opposite Xu Lin, sitting in a very ladylike posture, and said to Xu Lin: "Commander Xu, you are welcome I should be thankful."
In order to express his gratitude to Xu Lin for his rescue, Frankie invited him to the castle.
Of course, Frankie is also selfish, using this as an excuse to want to take the opportunity to get along with the hero who saved him longer.
The 23-year-old Frankie, at the moment when he was rescued by Xu Lin, the bullet that hit the red-armored knight’s head was like a magical arrow shot by Eros towards Frankie’s heart. Ji Yi was moved.
The two chatted like this, and Xu Lin soon showed his complaining character.
Perhaps I have missed a lot, and I am a human being on the earth, so I forgot to respect the etiquette of the nobles more or less, and said with a carefree tea: "Your Excellency, are you talking about the rebels? What kind of rebellion is it okay?"
If Frankie is a layman in the military, then Frankie is an insider in politics.
Xu Lin is a pure soldier who has climbed all the way from the non-commissioned officer. He doesn't know much about this.
Frankie shook her head and saw that Xu Lin was not very sensitive to these things, so she explained: "Commander Xu, the officialization of soft currency promoted by the Panda Empire Regency Council, and the two adults of the Regency Council The adoption of the provincial system has prompted these old nobles and old forces who do not understand flexibility to break out of rebellion.
The officialization of soft currency is equivalent to eliminating all the currencies before the empire.
Persons who own the empire and various nobles privately mint metal currency can directly take these coins and go to some banks and banks that have joined China United Bank for soft currency exchange.
With the officialization of the soft currency, the Regent also took back the coinage rights of the nobles.
In the past, they could also mint money and create wealth out of thin air, thus filling their own financial holes.
However, in order to unify the currency, the officialization of the soft currency was implemented, which cut off the wealth of these nobles.
They obviously cannot see the benefits of a unified market for everyone.
To use the words from Huaxia, call it "economic colonization". Of course, these nobles must resist. "
Xu Lin was taken aback: "Is this economic colonization?"
Frankie smiled: "Yes, of course you can say no."
The term "colonial" is very disgusting to Xu Lin. After all, this is an imperialist business, but Frankie's words also stiffen Xu Lin's curiosity. He blinked: "What do you mean?"
Speaking of leaning forward, I tried my best to consider Xu Lin, staring at Xu Lin’s little eyes full of doubts, and explained with a serious look: "The term'economic colonization' is also used by those nobles. It has spread through the channels of Chinese merchants. If you take it literally, it is really true.
But this is not and is not entirely a matter of economic colonization.
You Chinese people traveled from the earth to the continent of Aghanim, and lost the entire earth market in an instant. Your country has not collapsed yet, and that is also due to all the policies you are implementing now.
For you, the countries on the continent of Aghanim are completely primitive countries.
In front of you, we have no military, no economy, or even politics.
Military, the weapons in our hands can't fight against you at all.
Even the strong, even the gods, have been defeated in your hands.
Economically, we don’t have any merchandise available for you to buy.
Industrial products? Similar handicrafts? There is hardly anything to sell.
Only mineral resources, crops, livestock, and those local handicrafts and costumes that are of some interest to some of you.
But these things can easily be copied exactly in front of you.
Even if it is a special handicraft, would you be interested in the products of those backward countries on your planet?
What's more, the countries on the continent of Aghanim are not as good as the backward countries on earth.
Even the political system is the same. It is the political system that you eliminated a thousand years ago and a hundred years ago.
But we have even used it for thousands of years.
The so-called ‘economic colonization’ is nothing more than those who only understand the literal meaning.
If you Huaxia people do not engage in this set, your products will not be able to be sold, the merchants will not find the money, and the employees will not be able to afford wages.
The situation in your country will definitely be a mess.
Of course the so-called "colonization" is not exactly like that.
The influx of your goods has improved our lives.
We really can’t learn your skills.
In the countries of Aghanim with almost zero education level, no one can easily imitate yours, except for the characters that are destined to play a pivotal role in the script.
You brought us civilization and a certain amount of industrial support.
We use the technology you eliminated to slowly develop our own handicraft industry, develop our own ‘industry’, and we ourselves have become wealthy.
So we have spare money in our hands and can continue to buy your products, and the two parties have entered a virtuous circle, which is the so-called development market.
Ahanim eight years ago, you can’t sell anything, even those that are too cheap, for ordinary civilians, you have to think twice about buying them.
At this point, Commander Xu, you can look at the development of the Duke of Deherbas, isn’t that the case?
There is a world of difference between Deherbas now and Deherbas eight years ago. "
Xu Lin was a little surprised, why this girl knows so much? This is too strong.
Xu Lin didn’t think much, but Frankie was worried that Xu Lin would regard it as a potential threat to China. Xu Lin’s thoughts were all written on her face. Frankie quickly explained: "Commander Xu, I Since you came into this world, I have been paying attention to you.
In the past few years, I even bought some interesting books from Chinese merchants, and there are some on them.
In addition, when I traveled to Carinthia, I used the Internet there.
The knowledge on the Internet is really rich. These words are basically what your books and online said. "
It is not so appropriate "economic colonization" as it is to develop the market.
Before the crossing, one thing all countries on the earth did was to grab the market.
The major economies and major countries are killing you and me in these big markets. What is it for? I almost hope that they will have a larger share in this market.
The market is just so big, and there are so many people who divide the cake, so it's naturally broken.
But there is only one exception, and that is China.
Huaxia is also the only one to develop the market while grabbing the market.
He knew that if he wanted to develop, he would need to eat more cakes, so he became a pastry chef and slowly started making cakes by himself.
The guys who were beaten up with a piece of cake before, don’t know how to make cakes by themselves, so seeing Master Hua Xia making cakes, they naturally became jealous.
The slander against the Chinese master is not making cakes, but under the guise of making cakes and earning materials at low prices from those raw material suppliers.
When many suppliers of cake ingredients heard that this group of cakes did not know how to make cakes, they only knew that the cake-eating guys said it seemed to make sense.
As a result, the masters of China have been crowned the hat of squeezing upstream manufacturers, but some upstream manufacturers that have happily cooperated with the masters of China have become rich step by step in the process of making cakes by the masters.
So that the slander of the Chinese masters and the survival of those people are naturally unfavorable.
The truth is such a truth. After crossing over, the cake is gone, only the cake of my own.
The upstream manufacturers on Aghanim's side are all quail eggs, and the milk they provide is the milk squeezed out of the mice, and the sugar they provide is of very poor quality.
On the entire continent of Aghanim, there is not even a cake master who can make cakes, even if it is no ingredients.
Master Hua Xia doesn’t help the villages with a handful of Aghanim’s suppliers, can this Aghanim’s cake be made?
By the time the cakes at home are all eaten, then wait to starve to death.
You can never eat people, right?
Xu Lin didn't understand this, and the truths spoken by Frankie could be heard in the cloud.
Looking at Xu Lin's frowning brows, Frankie chuckled. Knowing that Xu Lin had been fainted by her own words, she smiled and said, "Let’s get back to the topic."
"Huh? Oh, good."
Three words popped out of Xu Lin's mouth, and Xu Lin, who had traveled thousands of miles, was directly pulled back by Frankie.
Frankie continued: "In addition to the officialization of the soft currency promoted by the Regent, and the withdrawal of the casting rights completely touched the interests of these nobles and old forces, there is another reason, which is also the reason for these guys to rebel."
"Provincial system?"
Frankie stood up slowly, squatted slightly, and gently filled Xu Lin with the cup of tea, put down the cup, and sat back on the sofa again.
Xu Lin looked at the tea and immediately said jokingly: "Thank you, Your Excellency has so many servants, I can still be so honored to drink the tea made by the Duke himself."
Xu Lin naturally didn't know the girl's thoughts, Frankie smiled and said: "If Battalion Commander Xu likes it, I welcome Battalion Commander Xu to taste it at any time, every day."
Frankie put her posture very low in front of Xu Lin, even claiming to become a "concubine body", of course Xu Lin didn't understand, hehehe smiled: "Your Excellency is generous, hehe."
Frankie also took a sip from the teacup, nodded and then said: "Well, although it is not the decision of the Regency Council, but in the entire Panda Empire, the King Carinthia, the Queen Mother, the King Irnava, King Wienchard is abolishing the enfeoffment to the provincial system, strengthening the centralization of power, and strengthening himself.
Strengthening yourself means weakening the nobles below.
Recruiting power and titles are exactly what these four are doing.
King Carinthia is a little better, after all, behind him is a behemoth like you.
The others are not so lucky. They want to engage in the provincial system, and the nobles below will naturally rebel, and no one wants the power in their hands to be taken away.
Although the Empress Dowager faction is only engaged in the municipality, this has already sent out a dangerous signal.
Once they succeed, they will push it around.
People naturally don't want their titles to be taken away, and they don't want their land to be taken away, so resisting the Regency Council has become their only choice for the short-sighted guys. "
Xu Lin knows a little bit about these. The so-called taking away the land, isn't that buying?
In China, this means getting rich. How many rich people can one "demolition" word?
Xu Lin was puzzled: "These guys, why do they want land and titles? They sold them together, exchanged for some money, and became a rich man and got some business. Isn't he going to do it?
Look at us, there is no one who owns land to prosper the people and strengthen the country.
Look at Carinthia. Haven't all the nobles sold their land to the Carinthia royal family or the Carinthia government?
Look at how moisturized people are, huh. "
Frankie smiled: "After all, not everyone is Carinthia."
Other nobles do not have Anrui's capital to buy land at high prices, nor can they give any promises to them.
Carinthia is behind China, and behind the other nobles are political struggles.
After the two chatted for a long time, it was dark, and Xu Lin got up and said goodbye.
However, Frankie wanted to keep the other party, blushing, and plucked up courage, like a bold confession, and weakly invited: "Captain Xu, can you stay in the concubine’s castle tonight? ?
The concubine has ordered someone to be next to the concubine’s bedroom, and a room has been cleaned up for Commander Xu..."
Frankie blushed and stared at Xu Lin timidly. Her heart was even more disturbed by the little deer.
However, Xu Lin waved his hand and said: "Sorry, when I first arrived in Lanchester, there are still a lot of things to be arranged in the camp. You see, you have delayed a lot of time with the Duke."
Xu Lin wants to leave because of military affairs, and Frankie can't force her to stay with her sweetheart.
After sending Xu Lin out of the castle, Frankie asked weakly: "Captain Xu, we...are we friends now?"
After drinking an afternoon tea, contacting the 2nd Battalion and Lanchester Garrison in the afternoon, Xu Lin scratched his cheek: "Forget it."
Frankie bit her lip and asked: "Can the concubine call you by name?"
Xu Lin casually said: "No problem, it doesn't exist, just call me Xu Lin."
After all, in modern society, it is very normal to call the other person by name.
After Frankie got Xu Lin’s permission, it’s not good for Xu Lin to feel less depressed because Xu Lin hadn’t stayed overnight. The smile on her face became thicker and said: “Then Xu Lin, you can call Concubine body... is called Concubine body Frankie."
"Ah, oh, no problem, it's all right, everyone is a friend."
Seeing that Xu Lin is about to leave~IndoMTL.com~ Frankie stopped Xu Lin and asked: "Xu Lin, wait, the last question, how long will you stay in Lanchester?"
Xu Lin looked at the faintly flashing stars, and replied: "Ah, I don't know, it should be stationed for a while, until the rebellion in Lord Mae Suo is put down."
Frankie nodded, which means that during this time, she can always look for opportunities to stay with Xu Lin.
Of course, for a politically skilled figure like Frankie, he has both the selfish desire to stay with Xu Lin and his own political ambitions, so he said: "Xu Lin, I will visit you tomorrow morning. Yes, I need your help for a little bit."
"Huh?
Oh, good.
See you tomorrow. "
"See you tomorrow."
Looking at the back of Xu Lin's departure, Frankie couldn't help but look forward to the arrival of tomorrow. At the same time, she was also a little woman, carrying her hands on her back, holding the stones by her feet, and pouting: "Xu Lin, You are really a Xu Mumu."
