The time when the fat man set out from Tiha to Blemmel was in mid-June, and the weather began to get hot, even as the center of the Great Basin of Great, the horse team began to bask in the scorching sun after a period of forest formation, and the road was yellow-orange and orange by the sun, and the better ones were paved with some gravel, and it was almost a dirt road, which is no wonder that the nobles did not like to ride in horse-drawn carriages, such a dilapidated road, if it was bumped in the carriage for a day, even the best body bones had to be torn apart,

The fat man changed to a horse halfway, and the hooves of the war horse stepped over, rolling up the smoke and soil in the sky, and all the way north, the fat man's eyebrows were frowning together.

The form of the south-central part of the country is still severe, and the war and banditry have basically subsided, but because of the economic devastation caused by the end of the kingdom of Rode and the continuous drought, the ability of the new ruler is still tested.

In June, which should be the busiest month, there are almost no human figures in the fields, either they are cracked and cracked, or they are overgrown with waist-high artemisia grass, and in the year of war, natural disasters have occurred, and the rainy season, which was supposed to come in May, disappeared after a few rains, and the water source gradually dried up, which undoubtedly greatly affected the production of already thin crops

Especially in the central and southern regions that have just suffered from the war, a large number of displaced people and the chaotic situation have worsened the local economy of Goude, like a barrier belt, completely blocking the flow of goods between the north and the south.

If it weren't for the southern coastal areas, where the fat man's directives liberalized the movement of people, opened up the guò sea trade and rebuilt coastal towns to absorb the influx of refugees rolling down from the central and southern regions, then the Falcon Empire would now be not just a barren and dilapidated place, but 500,000 wanderers waiting to be fed.

That kind of situation. It would be a fatal blow to the Empire's new rule in Roude, who had never been a talkative people, and who kept in their blood an unyielding heritage, as long as there was a slight fuse. It will explode like a powder keg, and it was because of the brutal suppression of the slaves of the Made, that the Okadhiva Dynasty led to a great rebellion of the slaves, and finally fell apart

The tragedy of the thousand-year-old dynasty must not be staged on oneself, and the most headache for the fat man is not this, if the impact of natural disasters is temporary. The lagging infrastructure in Germany was enough to make the fat man feel that he was facing a patient who was almost completely paralyzed.

This has to start with the economic system of Lotoku, although it has a vast sea, but it is actually a traditional inland lord state, except for the close range of Kyoto and a few large cities under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family,

The economic development between regions still mainly depends on the self-construction of the lords. This kind of terrain that looks like a large basin does not actually have any particularly useful specialties in it, and valuable goods such as minerals are under the control of the royal family. Therefore, the commercial exchanges between the lords are extremely poor, and the lords of various places have almost no income except for some pitiful territorial taxes.

Therefore, the collection of heavy agricultural taxes and the exploitation of the people in the territory under the name of cleverness have become the most important means for the lords to expand their financial resources, and only in some relatively wealthy areas will some small commercial bazaars be built, and the development between regions is uneven, and the construction of roads that guide the passage through various regions is only a process that can be passed.

The Falcon Empire, which had just completed its occupation, was faced with such a mess. According to the custom of the Falcon army, in the occupied areas, captured prisoners would be used to build roads, but the 100,000 captives captured in the Battle of Kyoto had long been released back by His Majesty the Falcon, which won the hearts of some of the Goude people. But it also deprived the Falcon Army of the cheapest labor...,

If you build the road alone, the garrisons in various places are a little unbearable, and the army left in the Great Germany is the Salonian Army, with a total number of about 50,000 people, excluding the troops sent to the border line, the remaining army is less than 20,000 people, most of them are concentrated in the Bremel area, with 20,000 troops, to build the communication line of the entire Kingdom of Wild Germany, it is simply a fantasy to talk about the possibility

But if you hire workers to build roads, it is definitely an unbearable burden for the empire's finances, this year can be described as a frequent war, from the battle of the east court in the north to the Vikia war in the south, to the final war of conquest of Roude, the three major battles before and after are more than 100,000 level of life-and-death wars, the economy of the kingdom of Odd has been dragged down, the Falcon Empire is also uncomfortable, continuous wars, has made the empire's finances close to the bottom line of the deficit that has never been before,

The fat man is wondering if he should issue "treasury bonds" with his portrait to some rich and wealthy businessmen

In the end, the fat man still held back, no, if he really issued treasury bonds, it would not be equivalent to handing over the lifeblood of the imperial economy to these wealthy businessmen who held a large number of treasury bonds!

Because it was a light car, the whole Bremel knew that the Falcon Majesty was about to arrive There would definitely be no more than three people, and early in the morning, at the gate of Bremel City, the commander of the Resa Deva Banner who was in charge of Bremel's military affairs was already waiting there, he was only one person, and he did not bring the guards as usual, in fact, he did not dare to bring,

To his left was a somewhat emaciated middle-aged man, it was Rehasa, who had just been appointed as Administrator of Blemmell, a confidential lieutenant from the Imperial Adjutant's Office, his appointment was said to have been named by His Majesty Falcon himself, he was about thirty years old, his eyes were exquisite, his eyes were a little deep, his thin and straight figure, his lips were slightly closed, and his eyes were shining with inexplicable luster, giving people a shrewd and capable look,

For this new administrator, Resa Deva, who is in charge of military affairs, has kept his distance, neither daring to offend nor to compliment in the past, everyone knows how important Bremel is, although the title of Ryde Kyoto is gone, but in the minds of most Otto people, Rysa Diva, who is in charge of military affairs, does not dare to offend or not to compliment, in fact, it does not make much sense,

Sure enough, as soon as this administrator was in place, he immediately established the prestige of the empire with thunderous means, and he first dealt a heavy blow to the virtuous merchants in the city who relied on hoarding goods to raise prices, and executed three of the first criminals who committed crimes against the wind on the street, confiscated all the millions of tons of grain, and then sold all the food to the citizens of the city at a low price and limited quantity.

Bremmell's Virtuous people were thrilled by the magistrate's righteous move, and the prestige of the empire was recognized by most of the Bremmel people.

It's just that Resadiva, who has a lot of ears and eyes, has heard privately that the three first criminals who were executed have actually only recently gotten a large amount of grain at a very low price through a certain way, some say that it is from the northern Suruo region, and some people say that it is privately sold by the top level of the business alliance, and in the context of this administrator's toughness, the business alliance, which has always been known for its strength, has chosen to remain silent this time, which is enough to explain a lot of problems

"No matter how you look at it, it looks like a conspiracy! Millions of tons of grain!, without the approval of the upper echelons of the business alliance, without the permission of the imperial border guards, or more directly, without the acquiescence of His Majesty the Falcon, how could it be possible to suddenly gather in the hands of three great merchants who had no connections in such a short period of time and at such a sensitive moment,

"Exchanging the heads of 3 businessmen for the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people in Bremmell, such a cost-effective thing is probably something that Your Majesty has just thought of!"

Resadivar shrank his head in fright, he was not a fool, and after a little synthesis of what he had in his hands, he came to such a conclusion, and it can be seen from his resolute and resolute way of doing things, that His Majesty must have given him such a sensitive area, it must have been a great trust and a certain mission,

No matter what it is, it is not something that a small flag leader can provoke

"Mingzhe protects himself, Mingzhe protects himself!" Resadivar rolled up his collar and looked at the mountain road in the distance with some concern. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
