After hearing the announcement from the old nobles, Liu Zheng felt really relieved.
That's it.
This time it’s really okay.
In fact, what he is most worried about now is that these people will destroy his train tracks... If we follow the past historical process, there will definitely be people who will die like this. Because the temptation of imperial power is
infinite.
But now there is none.
Liu Zheng thought for a moment by himself.
The real reason was soon discovered. That is that the current Long Yan has actually slowly begun to develop in a direction that pays more attention to economics and commerce from the previous feudal society. Just like Britain in history, in the previous
In Europe, what people pursue is supreme power, legal throne, and various positions. But by the time the squires rose, people have begun to pay more attention to interests and pay more attention to the fact that they can borrow these business groups, these caravans
, how much profit can we help them gain in the colonies. Even the royal family has begun to pay attention to profits, not to mention those princes and lords?
A change in consciousness has begun to emerge.
This is a good thing.
Why?
Because whether in ancient times or in modern times, population factors are the main body of society. A certain number of people is a necessary prerequisite for the existence, formation and development of society. Without a certain number of people, it cannot be called a society, and it cannot be carried out.
Production labor cannot resist the intrusions of nature at the same time.
Similarly, population is both a manufacturer and a consumer. To put it simply, population is a dividend, and this is true no matter in which era.
As long as their ideas slowly change from their attachment to imperial power to commercial economy, they will pay more and more attention to the population. In this case, they will have more and more respect for the people and the social labor force.
This is a virtuous cycle that complements each other.
What Liu Zheng wants is such a society.
This time, these vassal kings learned to be smart, because they knew that in this case, if a war is launched, it is the people who will suffer, or they...
The whole country is rushing to help.
Carried by trains, armies from all walks of life began to rush to the battlefield.
Liu Zheng can also take some time to really discuss the next constitutional monarchy with Zhu Zhen, King Qin, and these old nobles.
This is a serious discussion.
It can be said that the outcome of their discussion this time will determine the future of Long Yan.
First of all, it is still a constitutional monarchy. Li Chao has already had experience with this. Just copy the homework. Regarding the restrictions on imperial power, the rights of parliament, the distribution of various rights, as well as parliamentary elections, being elected, etc.
Wait wait...
Secondly, there is the redistribution of territory.
The matter of confirming private ownership rights must also be put on the agenda. Only in this way will these feudal princes not have excessive opinions.
Again, this was the deeper issue that Liu Zheng wanted to talk to them about, and it was also his plan to gather all Long Yan's power and wealth together to make a catalytic investment.
then.
During this discussion, he proposed a brand new concept.
That is.
Become a shareholder in the East India Company!
This concept surprised everyone.
Who doesn't know about the East India Company? Now under the leadership of Ling Chen, it has turned over the entire Central Asia... or tossing it over and over, plowing it back and forth... because the East India Company
The company's soldiers have escaped the control of the Long Yan royal family. But in fact, everyone knows that the East India Company belongs to Liu Zheng!
These are the black gloves he used to colonize!
If at the beginning, the East India Company was still losing money... then as this year passed, the resources and wealth that the East India Company plundered from those places have made these people very jealous.
.
Get rich!
So rich!
So shocking!
What gold, what diamonds have been packaged by the Liangzhou Chamber of Commerce, as well as various resources, various minerals...
If you say.
In the past, Liangzhou’s cash cow was Yintan City. Now, the East India Company has become another money-making machine that is about to emerge!
so.
When Liu Zheng made this suggestion, everyone looked in disbelief.
