Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 1: Jin Ge’s first act

Incorporating the Punjabi and Thorian tribes into the direct jurisdiction of the empire is not a secret in the Imperial Council, and the question of when is the best time to bring them into direct jurisdiction has always been the focus of debate. At the beginning, the empire was still fighting in the Indian region, and asked to change the Punjabi and Solian tribes

The voice of the directly subordinate county was once high, but the opinion that the people of Hyderabad would have an overreaction prevailed, so it was shelved.

Now most of West Indian Dean has been controlled by the empire. After the battle of Caesar in South India, it is estimated that it will be a matter of time before it falls under the control of the empire. It seems to be a matter of course for the whole department to be directly managed by the empire. Many classes and forces have already made large-scale investments in the Indian region, especially the imperial financial aristocrats who have reached a compromise with the central government of the empire. The rich gold production here is the most coveted by the financial aristocrats, and the local wealthy class who have accumulated for several or even dozens of generations will also become a huge customer resource for the banking industry. The industrial and commercial circles also aggressively entered the mining, smelting, processing, cotton textile and other industries in the Indian region, and made use of the extremely abundant and cheap labor force in the Indian region to build large-scale industries and achieved considerable profits.

The first-beneficiaries of the Tang family and the local vested interests of Indians constitute a huge power group. It is they who try their best to move up and down in the imperial capital, lobbying representatives of the Senate and the Citizens' House, and generously donating money to support the influential Civil society organizations, inciting celebrities and literati to write and talk to create public opinion offensives, and frequently put pressure on the Imperial Council of Government Affairs, have resulted in the current situation of riding a tiger.

Actually, deep down in Xiao Tang’s heart, he always hoped that the Punjabi and Solian tribes could be brought under the jurisdiction of the empire earlier. In his opinion, the time for these two places is actually ripe, and it should be logical for the two places to be changed to county management. matter. It will only win the support of all parties in the empire and local forces, except that the Hyderabad people and the so-called Indian Kingdom, which are now declining, may issue some mild protests. That is almost negligible and will not have any substantial impact. And by changing these two counties into counties directly under the Central Government, the increasingly prosperous economies of these two places can not only provide a broad market for the industry and commerce in the interior of the empire. At the same time, the special real estate industries in these two places can also provide a large source of tax revenue for the empire's finances, and the empire can also use the good performance of the economic development of these two places to establish a glorious image for the rest of Indian ministries, which will serve as a basis for the empire's next step. A good foundation has been laid for the development of the West.

However, all of this must be approved by His Majesty the Emperor. Xiao Tang has already secretly sent the official document suggesting the change of the two counties to His Majesty the Emperor who has been vacationing in Gusu area. It is reasonable that His Majesty the Emperor should have replied , but there was no response for a long time, and the second official document has been sent three times.

Days. Ordinarily, it should be in the hands of His Majesty, Xiao Tang has no way of knowing what His Majesty the Emperor is thinking about.

The problems considered before should not exist now, and the taming of the Luobei actually cut off the last trace of fantasy of the Indians, surrounded by the arms of the empire, and the economy is becoming more and more integrated. The exchanges and integration of nationalities are becoming more and more frequent, and Northwest County has become a faint Indian except for Indians

The largest settlement in the region, the proportion of Indian ethnic groups has accounted for more than 30% of the westward migration population, and Central South County and Maine County have also become new hotspots for Indian immigrants. De'an intermarriage has become the most common interracial marriage.

At the same time, a large number of Tang businessmen and businessmen have settled down or placed their second families in cities in the Indian region. The beautiful and hot Indian women have become wealthy Tang businessmen and business people The first choice for concubines is cities with many Tang merchants, such as Kashgar, Jaipurdu, Reed, and Hailum. There are dozens of weddings where Tang businessmen marry Indian women as concubines almost every day. In particular, a series of civil laws involving property rights and property rights in the Imperial Property Inheritance Law began to be applied in the imperial protectorate, making India and Germany The phenomenon of An women marrying into Tang families has increased sharply. The custom of Tang people's marriage expenses being mostly borne by men is especially welcomed by poorer families of all ethnic groups in India. Marrying into Tang families not only saves a large amount of dowry, but also Moreover, they and their children can also enjoy inheritance rights. This has become the most important factor for women of all ethnic groups in India to choose Tang ethnic groups. The close blood relationship will also become a major bridge for the increasingly frequent exchanges between the two ethnic groups in the future.

It was under such circumstances that Xiao Tang believed that the conditions for the reform of the two counties were fully ripe, but before His Majesty's official decree arrived, he could only deal with the outside world in an extremely vague or even slightly negative tone Public opinion, to avoid other adverse consequences caused by misunderstanding.

When Wufeng received the second official letter from the Imperial Council, he was leisurely immersed in the beautiful scenery of Gusu, and he couldn't think of leaving.

"Ziqin, green waves, east, west, north and south waters, red bridges and three hundred and ninety bridges, this Gusu water scene really lives up to its reputation. After staying here for a week, it feels like a white horse has passed by. Time flies. I really want to be there all the time. Stay here." Dressed in a light shirt, with a half-opened fan, and jade hairpins in her hair, at this time

Wufeng no longer has the majesty and arrogance of an emperor, and is a bit more romantic and suave of a scholar.

"When you come to Gusu to see you, everyone sleeps on the river. There are few idle places in the ancient palace, and there are many small bridges in the water port. The night market sells water chestnut lotus root, and the red boat carries lotus. I know the moonlit night from afar, and the lovesickness is in the fisherman's song. Your Majesty, since ancient times Gusu Fucheng is known as a watery place, whether it is a scholar or a scholar, all of them are famous for the water scenery here

He is proud of the garden, the waterscape comes from nature, while the garden is purely artificial, and the two complement each other. "

Su Qin is obviously very satisfied with this escorting job. He works all year round and can have a moment of leisure. Although there are some more constraints around Wufeng, it is better than working all day in the imperial capital.

"Hehe, this is the Baodai Bridge known as the first bridge in Suzhou?"

"That's right, that's the mouth of Tantai Lake. If it's on a moonlit night, you can see the spectacle of 'stringing the moon'. There is a poem that says: Yaotai loses the phoenix-headed silver, and the lying water reflects the green jade. Moss; on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, fifty-three holes will come. This bridge has fifty-three holes and has a history of 500 years. It is said that

At that time, local officials donated their official uniforms for the charity sale. It was built with donations from many Gusu silk merchants. After five hundred years, it still stands tall. It is indeed a treasure of Gusu. "Su Qin had a look of reminiscence on his face, "Twelve years ago, I visited this place, and I was lucky enough to see the wonders of the string of moons. "

Looking around, the guards at the stern all looked serious and watched the movement around them vigilantly. Take precautions, although His Majesty is traveling in a micro-service, but no one can guarantee that the news will be out

Xie, His Majesty has already experienced many assassinations, the calmer he is, the more he hides his murderous intentions.

Wufeng didn't think as much as the guards around him. He had already stayed in Gusu for a week and had never disturbed the local officials. Even Jiangnan Governor Wang Zongmei didn't know Wufeng's whereabouts. He only knew about His Majesty. He is still staying in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is impossible to know which of the seven prefectures he is in. Apart from ordering all the prefectures to tighten security patrols inside and outside, he can only let it go.

"Ziqin, have you read Xiaotang's letter? It seems that the imperial capital is in a state of turmoil. I have a lot of opinions on Suolian and Pangzhe's delay in building a county." Insects lurking, the boat sails on the water, which is extraordinarily elegant. Yuan Feng lay comfortably in the chair at the bow, and moved his body comfortably

Mouth.

"The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. The so-called group special anger is nothing more than the expression of the aspirations of some vested interests. Solian and Punjah are only rich in gold. It is enough to make countless people salivate, not to mention that Solian is still one of the most important cotton textile bases in the empire, and there is no place that can compare with the gem and jade processing and slave trading empire in Punjah. Driven by huge interests, whether it is the Senate, the Civic Chamber, or the civil society ~IndoMTL.com~ how can we not wave the flag and shout? Not included in the official administrative division of the empire, the protection of interests is always in the throat, not practical , it’s no wonder that people want to spare no effort in all-round public relations.”

Su Tai smiled slightly. Regarding the establishment of counties in these two places, even if he was in the south of the Yangtze River, he never stopped. There will always be people who come to inquire about the news. In His Majesty's postscript, there are also some people who are more or less related to the interest groups in the two places.

Wufeng also heard what Su Feng said. What the other party said was correct. Even Leng Ruoxing, who never asked about such mundane matters, came to inquire about this matter, which surprised Wufeng inexplicably. . Later, Leng Ruoxing shyly talked about the fact that the Tianshan faction had jointly invested in a gold mine with some local merchants in East Indian De’an, that is, the Punjab region. The other party was very concerned about whether the empire would bring the Punjab under its direct jurisdiction. He repeatedly asked himself to find out the truth. The word "benefit" is really enough to give way to everything.

After Cui Wenxiu's battle with Nishizawa spread, this trend can hardly calm down anymore. No one in the Indian area can interfere with the actions of the empire. Even Xiao Tang thinks that the two places have established counties When the best time came, whether the reaction from the people of Hyderabad could be ignored, Wufeng hadn't made up his mind on this issue, and today he just wanted to discuss it with Su Qin Haosheng.
