Power and Empire Chapter 3653: Spring storm (4)


The sun is dazzling, shining from the car window on Putamia’s skirt, the pope holding a report that has just been completed in her hand, and the crowds outside the car window are full of prosperous sceneries with a dazzling array of goods. The sound rushed like a tide. Although he was mentally prepared, Putamia was still shocked by the power of the imperial merchants

In just over a month, the number of imperial chambers of commerce stationed in the sacred capital of the mission country reached 167, and the number of personnel in the imperial chamber of commerce has expanded from only three to four thousand before to more than 50,000. , You must know that the population of the entire Shengdu was only about 200,000 after the war. That is to say, there is a member of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce among every five members of the Shengdu. Of course, not all of these Chamber of Commerce members are merchants. There are also various staff of the Chamber of Commerce, caravans transporting goods, etc., but what impresses Putamia most is the merchants from various countries attracted by these imperial caravans.

You must know that the four-month battle for the supremacy of Southern Europe in the battlefield of the sect nation has caused the entire Southern Europe to be cut off. The commercial blow to the entire Southern Europe is deadly. The winding and majestic coastline in the north of South Oubaro, the Feshan Northland Plateau to the west, the undulating mountains naturally blocked the transportation of commercial roads, and the coastline of the ecclesiastical state in the center, but because the war was completely stalled, a large number of The imperial goods are stocked on the coastline, and commodities from all parts of the south cannot enter the imperial market from here, and the only passable port in the north of Eero is also because the coalition of the princes in the south of Eero was in the former capital of Eero. Cut off the transportation route,

The final result is that in a full four months, the commerce and trade in the South Oubaro region has entered a state of suspension

For the southern European merchants who were already fragile under the impact of the last financial turmoil, the blow this time was tragic, with corpses everywhere, and industrial riots broke out in many countries. It is conservatively estimated that the number of people involved is large. The number of riots reached 7 to 80 thousand people, and the reason for the riots is speechless. It is because the merchants who had hoarded their goods and were ready to ship them to the Barrow area of ​​northern Europe before the winter and made a lot of money went bankrupt because the goods could not be sold. The bankruptcy of merchants directly affects the survival of industrial farmers. Industrial farmers are only responsible for production. Selling has always been the business of merchants. But now merchants cannot afford to purchase their goods. These goods can only be dealt with at a low price because they cannot be transported. Throwing away a large number of handicrafts, and then a large number of handicraftsmen are trapped, but the tax officials from above do not care about these, not only did not reduce the tax, but also increased it by a large margin.

For the civilian handicraftsmen, in this extremely cold winter, the hungry people, even though they knew that the products could not be sold, they had to continue to produce, because stopping production meant starving to death, and for the nations For the monarch, this war for hegemony in the South, which has lasted for several months, is a once-in-a-lifetime gamble. The great powers in the northern coastal area have collapsed, and powerful forces such as Fazer, the Religious State, and the Erot Empire have mastered the dominance of Southern Europe. The era is gone forever. The original pattern of great powers is broken, and with it comes the rise of the heroes. Small forces want to establish their country everywhere, and small and medium-sized countries want to take this opportunity to step up the ladder of great powers and become new ones. Among the powers of Southern Europe and Baro, they have also expanded their military significantly. They have become militant, and military expenditure taxes have increased exponentially. These increased military expenditures ultimately fall on the civilians, and the unbearable industrial civilians eventually triggered opposition in the city. Riot of Tax Officials

Such riots continued until the stalemate in the battlefield of the Holy Capital of the Mission Kingdom ended. Martin Liya was defeated. The Empire once again proved the supernatural strength of its own mainland's largest power, and the blocked commercial route was once again opened up. The goods from all over the world are almost mad and converge towards the holy capital of the religious group. In order to restore the near-destroyed country to life as soon as possible, Putamia almost copied the imperial commercial policy. For the caravans of various countries before the goods are sold , Are all exempt from road tax, and canceled the tax collection on the domestic pass of the Order. In fact, even if she did not want to cancel it, because under the ravages of the Martin Liya people, the provinces south of the Holy Capital have long been dilapidated. Many areas have become white ground, and the previous roads are covered by weeds. Even if you want to collect a road tax, it is unrealistic in itself. It is better to just let it go

Sure enough, the religious regime’s move to liberalize trade routes has been suppressed for four months in Southern Obaro’s trade. It’s almost like a bomb thrown into the crater. The merchants of the entire Southern Obaro region At this moment, it also exploded. The sacred capital of the sacred country was flooded like a tide. The chamber of commerce personnel quickly broke through the original 50,000, 70,000, and 100,000. Now one third of the entire holy capital is It has a relationship with the Chamber of Commerce. With so many Chamber of Commerce personnel and a mountain of goods and commodities, the daily transaction quota is still rising, making the Holy Capital of the Mission State that has just passed the cold winter like a chestnut in spring overnight. /

The weather in the sacred city changes almost every day. Originally, Putamia was still thinking about suddenly turning a country that had been **** for decades into a centralized monarchy system, and the obstacles he had to face. How big it will be, after all, in the hearts of most pious ecclesiastical people, merchants have always been despised, but now the situation in the ecclesiastical country seems to be overnight, the civilians of the ecclesiastical country have accepted the existence of commerce and are accustomed to the businessmen. All kinds of convenience, everything is natural, and there is no point of coercion at all. It can be seen that the original temple rule system has been completely abandoned by the public with the destruction of the myth of the Temple Army. Pope Putamia himself is no longer regarded as a representative of the supreme god

"Such a huge change is just a short period of more than a month. You must know that my painstaking preparations will take me three to five years. How did your Majesty make it? Putamia stood in front of the emperor’s desk, with cloud-like long hair in a delicate bun behind his head, straight and slender nose and bright red and plump lips, so that the outside world had a woman The pope, who is known as the Valkyrie, is even more heroic. Her skin is white as if she rarely comes into contact with the sun. Two sturdy and plump hairs are wrapped in a silver-gray silk dress and formed with a slender waist. In sharp contrast, stretched out a white hand to flip through a report

"In fact, this is not surprising. People must live before they have spiritual beliefs. When the public does not care about the existence of the temple, it is not surprising that His Highness the Pope becomes a queen. The value of selling the temple alone is enough to earn back the original "black-haired emperor standing on the window sill, wearing a black imperial military uniform, and short black hair showing a bit of golden yellow in the sun.

"I came here to discuss with your Majesty something that is of great benefit to the empire" Putamia put down the report, her mouth filled with charmingness

"Great benefit?" The black-haired emperor raised his hand indifferently. "I am busy with the reconstruction and arrangement of the 28 provinces in the south of the holy capital, and I have to negotiate with dozens of large chambers of commerce in the empire. Discuss one by one, I thought it would be at least half a month for you to remember that there is still someone like me in the Holy Capital? Let’s talk about it, if it involves Martin Liya’s prisoner, it’s waived."

The black-haired emperor's beauty temptation for the pope, sugar-coated cannonballs, the emperor always eats the sugar-coated and throws away the cannonballs

Pudamia's delicate body trembled slightly, and there was a daze in her pretty eyes, but she was relieved immediately, knowing that she couldn't hide it, so she simply said it out. "How did your Majesty know that it was Martin Liya's prisoner? It's the Empire? The report of the Ministry of Intelligence, it really deserves to be Mount Aitmen, who has been fighting with Martin Liya for decades, just like in the temple, there are many secrets in Martin Liya! Yes, indeed. It was Martin Liya who sent someone to find me and promised that as long as I kill Spike and a dozen lords, half of the property robbed from the sect nation will be returned. This is just a simple task for our sect nation. I really have nothing to do. The reason for rejection is that the entire holy capital is now an imperial merchant, and the imperial merchant is the eyeliner of the imperial intelligence department. Although the people sent by Martin Liya are secretive, it is still a bit difficult to avoid the eyes of the imperial intelligence department."

"Kill Spike and return the looted property. Are you not afraid that Martin Liya will not admit it afterwards?" The black-haired emperor snorted calmly, and Martin Liya will send someone to look for him. Putamia, in fact, is basically what was expected. On his table, there is the recent movement of the Sam tribe in Martin Liya, and His Royal Highness Sam Tamara is heading to the sect country. The Holy Capital negotiated with the Empire about the release of the prisoners. It was supposed to be extremely secretive, but it was revealed by a guard of the Sam clan patriarch while he was drunk. Although the guard was executed afterwards, The fact that His Royal Highness the Sam minority went to the sect country has spread to a considerable extent.

When Siegelin met with the emperor yesterday, he said that many people in the Sam clan didn’t want His Royal Highness to succeed, and wanted to use the hands of the empire to kill Sam Tamara. There are many people here, but few within the Sam clan know about the secret agreement between Sieglin and the empire, so someone will inevitably make a move.

And those few people who knew the secret agreement were all the Sam lords who signed the surrender together on that day. Naturally, they would never betray Siege, because to some extent, Siege was occupied in the secret agreement. Absolutely important position. If there is an accident in Sieglin, the empire is likely to immediately announce this secret agreement to the entire continent, then the entire Martin Liya kingdom will be turned upside down and plunged into the flames of civil war

"Don't admit it? Haha, I certainly have my own way to make Martin Liya people afraid to go back. Although the Imperial Intelligence Department is very powerful, I believe that your Majesty should not have thought of it, one of the three major tribes of Martin Liya, Sam. Your Majesty, right now in my holy capital. If Martin Liya refuses to admit it, I will send the head of the Sam tribe’s young Royal Highness back to Martin Liya"

Pudamia's mouth showed a touch of pride, and she believed that the Southern Intelligence Department of the Empire was powerful, but her intelligence network was not vegetarian. She believed that this shocking intelligence obtained at a high price, even the Emperor of the Empire. I don’t necessarily know, otherwise I’m afraid that the young Sam’s Royal Highness would have been detained a long time ago. How could he let the other party use the sign of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce and stay in the holy capital? Haha, even if it is the empire, it hasn't been a long time since a Sam woman has sneaked into the empire, and even a top-level imperial chamber of commerce has been established. This kind of thing, if it is in the sect country, it is absolutely impossible to happen!

Looking at Putamia’s proud and pretty face, the corners of the fat man’s mouth curled slightly. They were afraid that they were just waiting for you to send Sam Tamara’s head.

In the end, Putamia did not get Martin Liya as a captive from the emperor, and left angrily,

"Let the head of the intelligence department come here"

The black-haired emperor walked to the door of the office and ordered the guard on duty at the door. Soon the head of the Southern Intelligence Department in the Shengdu area appeared in front of the emperor.

"What's your name?" The emperor blinked curiously. This man is so unique. He is a strong man like granite, which makes the emperor slightly curious. This is the Southern Intelligence Department. The head of the branch is a fierce general, and his whole body exudes a strong masculine aura, which is completely inconsistent with the traditional Assassin’s Etmund label

"My Majesty, his subordinate is Luwu Yade, the head of the Holy Capital Region of the Southern Intelligence Department of the Empire." The brawny man had a respectful look. He saw the emperor's weird look and his scalp was even more numb. Although Mount Aitmon was tough, But it was just a hunting dog raised by the emperor. He quickly explained, "In fact, your majesty doesn’t look like an intelligence officer. It’s all because this is the holy capital. We Aitmen Mountain and the holy capital The dark temple of ‘s has been fighting for decades, and neither side knows how many people have died in each other’s hands. Although the religious regiment and the empire have been united, it does not mean that they are a group of harmony. Although they dare not secretly attack the dead, they fight every three to five. One is a common occurrence. The former Minister of the Holy Capital was blatantly beaten and vomited blood due to physical reasons. In the end, the Intelligence Ministry decided to send a subordinate. Even if the secret part of the Holy Temple picked things up, the subordinates could beat them all. Get down!"

"There is still such a thing"

The black-haired emperor looked surprised, but think about it once was the headquarters of the Temple Army. The Temple Army was extremely hostile to the Empire, and even more ruthlessly wanted to expel it from the Southern Intelligence Department. The army left the holy capital because of the mass fights between the imperial officers and the temple officers. This is not difficult to understand. If the southern intelligence department does not have a high-strength intelligence department head, it is really difficult to stand firmly in the holy capital. Feet

The emperor sat down on his seat, Luwu Yad seemed to feel that his size was a little bit down to the emperor, and he shrank his neck meaningfully. This made the emperor’s mouth a smile, and asked him, "Sam How many people have sneaked into the holy capital these days?"

Lu Wu Yade's eyes flickered, and he replied in a condensed voice, "According to the statistics of the Ministry of Intelligence, there are six batches of Martin Liyasam who have entered the Holy Capital in the past few days, and the number is as many as two hundred, including horses. There are more than three hundred horses. Although they claimed to have come to the Shengdu market to auction the horses, their subordinates have personally seen those horses, they are all well-trained horses, not the wild horses captured by the other party."

"If they do, can you stop it?" the black-haired emperor said dismissively

"The subordinates have deployed personnel to fully monitor them. As long as there is an abnormality, the subordinates are sure to kill all these Martin Liya people within half an hour." Lu Wu Yad exposed a mouthful of white wood teeth, matched with his height. Mi's sturdy figure makes people feel a bit hideous

"Then prepare, it should be these few days"

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Lu Wu Yade saluted and turned to leave. Only the emperor was left in the room. The emperor took out a report from the pile of documents on the table and opened it with his right hand. He did not remove Sam Tama. La is already the spokesperson of the empire told Luvu Yad that these Sam people were not good at coming, and they all sneaked in quietly. They made it clear that they wanted to kill someone with a knife. Even if they were killed, they wouldn’t think that Sam Tamara had been thought of. Green recommended to the Empire

Yesterday Sieglin also said a series of good things about Sam Tamara in front of the emperor, but the emperor was actually not very satisfied with the girl of the Sam clan. Since she ventured to negotiate with the holy capital, It can be seen that the young Sam’s Royal Highness is indeed a bit too impulsive and too idealistic. Relatively speaking, the young Yier’s Royal Highness Spike has shown greatness, tolerance enough to judge the situation, courageous and brave, which is really better than this. His Royal Highness the Sam clan is not a little bit, but what Siegelin said is that it moved the emperor. That is the shortcoming of Sam Tamara, which is precisely the advantage.

"His Royal Highness really lacks ambitions for power and is not suitable for being in power, but he is one of the few people among Martin Liya's top nobles who have a good opinion of business, and he also established his own Imperial Chamber of Commerce, as for power , The empire has a surrender book in hand, there is no shortage of enough power to control the entire Martin Liya, one more point or one point less, it makes no difference, but if the person pushing up is an ambitious careerist, I believe it will be even more right. The empire is unfavorable! "Siglin's eyes flickered, and he said decisively. In fact, the negotiation with the empire was that Siglin recommended Sam Tamara to the emperor, but Sam Tamara didn't know this.

"Although you are right, how can I guarantee that the support of the empire will not be lost in the middle. To such an impulsive and reckless spokesperson, to be honest, I really doubt how long she can live? "The emperor reached out and touched his chin, and took a deep breath

“That’s why your Majesty should give her a honorable enough favor. For example, this time he helped release Martin Liya as a captive, so that the three major clans will owe her a favor. Anyone who wants to disadvantage her Consider the retaliation from the three major races. "Sigreen had already written enough of his belly when he came, and what he said at this moment is also irrefutable.

"Segelin, I was actually going to push you up at the beginning. With a 200,000 army in hand, even if you think you want to become the king of Martin Liya, who can stop it!" In silence, the Emperor of the Empire With a sigh, he stared at him with violent aura, and his eyes were so sharp that they were about to burn two holes in his face.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I'm already old, I can't bear this crime. I don't have the courage to raise a butcher knife against my fellow tribe, nor the courage to kill the other two tribes. Thanks to the emperor for his love." Green raised his head to face the emperor's gaze calmly, with sincere eyes. Neither of them made a sound. There was silence in the room, and the footsteps of the guards walking back and forth at the door ~ IndoMTL.com ~ Silent murderous intent was in the air.

"There are not many people in this world who can hold the sword of power and let it go indifferently"

The emperor suddenly smiled indifferently and said, "You are definitely the most calm person who lied in front of me. It's just that no matter how clever you are, there is one thing you can't install. Just now, your pupils suddenly shrank. This Explain that you have been heart-moved. Although I don’t know how you perceive it, I still want to say admiration. "The imperial emperor's voice paused, shaking his head and sighing: For the sake of your Siglin, I believe it once, as long as Martin Liya Ceded the four provinces to the east, the Empire released the captured Martin Liya people, including Crown Prince Spike. Actually, I have no interest in the land of the Martin Liya people, and the development rate is too low. The reason for this The condition is to help you think Green push Sam Tamara, and before leaving the holy capital, I think it is necessary to teach this young majesty a lesson. The betrayers are often people who are familiar with her! , Otherwise I am really worried, will my investment die halfway"

"I understand, Your Majesty" Siegelin lowered his right hand and bowed his body to bow
