The Mediterranean sea breeze brings a bit of coolness to the city of Cairo in midsummer.

The Prime Minister of Fujian, Hu Qiwen, led the civil servants to the north. After more than ten days of traveling, they arrived in Cairo.

They took a boat all the way north, and the cities on both sides of the Nile River had been occupied by Bian Yu and his generals.

The rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire in Egypt basically collapsed.

The Egyptians have been under the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire for a long time, and they have become accustomed to foreign rule.

When the Fujian Kingdom took over Egypt, it would give the Egyptians a way to survive as long as they did not kill them all.

Only a group of local Egyptian forces who were deeply tied to the Ottoman Turkish Empire chose to resist them.

This does not require the Second Corps to take action. The Egyptian forces who have taken refuge in them will destroy these Egyptians and divide the interests they left behind.

What Hu Qiwen saw along the way made him think that the overall situation was decided.

A group of them got off the boat and looked at the city of Cairo ahead.

The crumbling old city wall has been torn down.

Some Egyptians, under the command of the Han people, are building factories outside Cairo.

One of the cement factories has been built. The process of grinding cement produced a large amount of dust, which directly covered the factory area.

A concrete road passes through Cairo and reaches the northern port directly.

Hu Qiwen saw that a large amount of cement, sand and gravel were being transported on this road, as well as artillery that had obviously been dismantled from warships.

When he saw this scene, he knew that coastal defense guns were being built at Cairo Port.

If a warship wants to travel from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, it needs to sail around the entire African continent.

They are now in the Mediterranean, without even a small sampan, and can only rely on coastal defense artillery to defend the city.

Hu Qiwen led the civil servants from the center of Fujian and entered Cairo in a carriage.

He saw the Egyptians in the city walking in a hurry.

When they saw the figures of the Han people, their faces showed fear.

They came to the residence of Zhang Yuliang, the king of Fujian, which was the former Egyptian Governor's Palace.

Under the leadership of the waiter, they went to meet Zhang Yuliang, the king of Fujian.

The king of Fujian, Zhang Yuliang, saw Hu Qiwen and other civil officials arriving.

He put down the memorial he was reviewing, raised his head and said, "Old Hu, you have finally arrived.

This king has been entangled in some trivial matters during this period and is not very good at dealing with these trivial matters.

Once the cabinet and the six ministries are functioning properly, I will be able to escape."

Prime Minister Hu Qiwen saluted respectfully and said: "It is my duty to share the King's worries."

He asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, should the original names of Nile River, Egypt, and Cairo be changed to other names?"

Zhang Yuliang, the king of Fujian, said confidently: "We don't need to do this. Changing the name is a sign of lack of confidence."

The King of Fujian Zhang Yuliang met with other civil servants again and asked them to work diligently to create the glory of Fujian.

He asked these civil servants to join their posts as soon as possible and let the national center and various government offices operate.

Only Prime Minister Hu Qiwen is left, and he has many things to discuss with him.

The king of Fujian Zhang Yuliang gave Hu Qiwen a seat.

He hesitated and asked: "We have taken Egypt. What do you think of the Egyptians?"

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

By keeping these Egyptians, he was afraid of causing trouble to future generations.

He raised the butcher's knife to kill, but he felt it was unnecessary.

Hu Qiwen understood what Zhang Yuliang, the king of Fujian, was worried about.

"Your Majesty, we don't need to worry about these Egyptians at all.

Give rewards to those who surrender to us.

Those who dare to resist will be destroyed with thunderous means.

Starting with their beliefs and culture, they are divided into several different groups and let these groups supervise each other.

The Egyptians did not successfully resist the extensive rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

Our country's more refined rule gives the Egyptians no chance to resist.

We just need to learn from the lessons of the Han and Tang dynasties, treat them as aliens, and strictly enforce the national hierarchy.

Instead of giving them supra-national preferential treatment, even in open competition.

They are also unable to compete. The Han people who have absolute advantage will not cause serious trouble.

Simply put, I believe that as long as the Egyptians do not enter the cabinet and the senior levels of the Metropolitan Government, they will not have the strength to obtain more benefits for the ethnic group.

Unite the majority of Egyptians through interests.

Regarding our country’s national hierarchy system, I have already discussed the initial plan with many ministers and will report in detail next.”

When Fujian King Zhang Yuliang heard Prime Minister Hu Qiwen's analysis, he slammed the table excitedly.

"You civil servants are still smart and can analyze things logically and get to the core of the problem.

This is indeed the case. As long as they cannot grasp power, they are lambs to be slaughtered and are not terrible at all.

But now outside the county town, we still have to rely on the help of these people.

The cabinet should promote cultural education as soon as possible so that Egyptian cultural people can understand Chinese.

The current situation, outside the county seat, can only be controlled by them for the time being.

It is better to be stable than to rush now. We have just established our country and we must first stabilize ourselves.

When the industrial strength rises, the army is fully armed, and we establish a stable rule, then it will be the time for complete liquidation."

Prime Minister Hu Qiwen carefully wrote down the instructions given by the Fujian King Zhang Yuliang.

He described the policies that the cabinet will implement for the governance of the country.

If Fujian wants to be stable, the most important problem is to solve the problem of grain production.

Only when people have enough to eat will they not think about rebellion.

The cabinet must allocate large sums of money to build water conservancy projects and cultivate more fertile farmland.

At the same time, low shrubs are planted in the desert to prevent the desert from continuing to expand.

The fertile farmland on both sides of the Nile River is already scarce and cannot be swallowed up by the desert.

Dahua planted a large number of shrubs in Shaanxi and Gansu to control land desertification.

Excellent results have been achieved, and Hu Qiwen is confident that he can successfully control the desert.

The secondary thing is to establish a national hierarchy, and to match it with cultural assimilation and national integration.

Only a small number of immigrants from Dahua are in family units, and a large number of them are singles.

Their main purpose in going overseas, apart from gaining wealth, is to find a wife.

Fujian provides policies to support immigrants taking Egyptian wives.

The national hierarchy of Fujian is divided into four categories: nobles, citizens, compatriots and slaves.

Nobles are easy-to-understand people who have made great contributions to the country and have been awarded titles.

There is a glass ceiling here, and Han people can easily be knighted. It is extremely difficult for other foreign races to be knighted, and they must make great achievements.

The citizens are the Han people and their descendants, and the nobility has no descendants who inherit the title.

There are no restrictions on what citizens can do in Fujian.

Chinese people are foreigners who have submitted to them, and there are restrictions on participating in imperial examinations, doing business, and going to school.

When Chinese people enter some important fields, they need the guarantee of citizens.

This policy alone can encourage some large Egyptian families to marry their members to Han Chinese.

Slaves didn't want any rights, they were just property.

However, slaves were allowed to redeem themselves, or to be freed by being rewarded for meritorious service.

Another important thing is to set up hospitals in various cities to provide medical services to the people.

The medical environment here in Egypt is appalling, and people can only rely on their bodies to cope with their illnesses.

The major diseases raging in Egypt, malaria and cholera, can be easily solved.

Children, in particular, have a very high probability of contracting malaria and are prone to sudden death.

Malaria has a specific drug like artemisinin, while cholera only needs access to clean water.

Boiling water requires a very high cost, but a bottle of cheap chlorine can kill most germs in the water if used for a long time.
