Chapter 630: The People's Desire

The above is the general content of the negotiation, although there are some other details, but they are all carried out around these four points. The above treaty was reached only three days after the arrival of the Right Ding Dun in Su Wengcheng. When the news came back to Phnom Penh again, King Polamo breathed a sigh of relief, and although he suffered a lot of losses, he could be regarded as blocking the mercenary army. In some ways, this is the first country or region to block the mercenary front, and with this, Poramo's face can be said to be very bright.

Of course, because of Porama's compromise, it also attracted the dissatisfaction of Siam and Ava. But in this regard, the Phnom Penh Dynasty didn't say anything, who let these two countries withdraw so early, and they still want to see their own jokes, what's the matter, don't they want to save themselves?

After this incident, the Phnom Penh dynasty also saw its own shortcomings. Whoever has it is not as good as their own, who is not as strong as themselves, they decided to go all out to develop the military, conscription, training, and training have become what they urgently need to do, and they have given the mercenaries a sum of money because of compensation, and now they need more money if they want to train the soldiers, and for a time all kinds of taxes began to increase, or even doubled, and some local taxes were received three years later, or even five years later, and because of this, the people were complaining, and the national order began to be chaotic.

The matter of the Phnom Penh dynasty was finally temporarily resolved, and the mercenaries began to retreat, and when the news reached Vientiane, the capital of Laos, I don't know how many people's eyes were shocked by this.

In the eyes of those nobles, this time the mercenaries would definitely fight with the Phnom Penh army, and in this case, their opportunity would appear. When the time comes, once Siam and Ava send troops again, Laos will definitely not want to be embarrassed internally and externally, and their status will rise, and the authority in their hands will increase.

But now, the mercenaries have stopped their troops, is this still the powerful mercenaries who will destroy the country with a move? In that case, where are their development opportunities? What's more, this time the mercenaries have come out for the Solangon family, so they will naturally be supported by the forces of domestic business groups, and their position will be more stable, will they still have a chance to rise again?

In the eyes of the merchants and ordinary people, they came to a completely different conclusion from the nobles, the mercenaries won the battle, and for the first time made one of the generals on the other side apologize to their own merchants and lose money, this seems impossible to happen, doesn't this mean that their status has been recognized and respected by everyone?

As the governor of Lao Province, Luan Xiaochen said before that as long as you become a legal citizen of Lao Province, no matter where you appear or what happens, as long as you encounter difficulties and injustices, the provincial government will stand up for you and find justice while solving difficulties.

Naturally, there are many people who scoff at this. In particular, there are still many businessmen.

They are not as knowledgeable as ordinary people, they have traveled south and north for many years, and they don't know how many places they have been, and their vision is naturally not comparable to ordinary people. It is because they have seen so much that they do not believe that someone can call the shots for them as merchants.

Although they are said to be rich, their social status is not high. In the eyes of others, they are full of copper smell, and even when it comes to the degree of true respect, they are often inferior to some ordinary people. Scholars, farmers, industrialists, merchants, and merchants are the last in line.

With this in mind, why should they believe that the Lao provincial government will really protect their rights and interests? Although they paid a lot of business taxes.

Now, no one dares to say such a thing. What happened to the Solangon family has proven everything. Not only did General Hun Sen of the Phnom Penh Dynasty personally apologize and lose money, but at the same time invited the Sogon family to go to the Phnom Penh Dynasty to do business.

It's bowing again, it's reparations, and even taking the initiative to invite, doesn't this prove the status of businessmen? They saw that as the patriarch of the Solangon family, he was so beautiful and proud of his farming, and he was actively preparing to go to the Phnom Penh Dynasty in person.

After all, with mercenaries as their backing, it is conceivable that the Phnom Penh Dynasty will never dare to play any tricks, is it possible that they really want to fight a war and bow their heads again to pay compensation and cede land?

Laos Province is not only a businessman in Solangon, there are many business people whose strength is not weaker than them, or even stronger than them, they all saw the opportunity and began to take the initiative to contact Governor Luan, creating various opportunities to get along and meet, and even some big families, simply found out the youngest and most beautiful girl in the clan and gave it to Luan Xiaochen as a concubine, in order to strengthen the relationship between the two sides.

Regarding this matter, Yang Chendong even gave instructions after hearing about it, if Luan Xiaochen is willing, he can appropriately marry several high-quality women of different races as concubines. Because he has not forgotten the expectations of Luan's father Luan Xiaoqi and Luan's mother Zhou Hua for this son when he left Chiji City, one of the most important is the major event of marrying a wife and having children, that is, Luan Xiaoyu has also been in front of him twice for the first time, showing that the Luan family attaches great importance to this matter.

Of course, according to Yang Chendong's meaning, you can marry a woman of different races as a concubine, but it is impossible to be a wife, so you must have an absolute Han woman to ensure the purity of the bloodline. He didn't want the country that this generation had worked so hard to build would be swallowed up by their children with foreign blood.

In fact, this is not only the requirement for Luan Xiaochen, but also for all the senior cadres and senior officers below, Yang Chendong. When you reach the age, you can marry a high-quality woman of a foreign race as a concubine, but you must not become a regular wife, if anyone dares to do this and be found out, then I'm sorry, everything you have now will become zero, and you yourself will be eliminated from the ranks of cadres and become an ordinary person, and everyone will be absent.

Yang Chendong spoke, and those merchant groups paid more attention to this matter, and Luan Xiaochen also had one more errand, that is, after getting off work, he went back and forth between various big families, which was to get closer to them, and at the same time, he also had a blind date. Not to mention that there was really a lucky woman who was favored by him and married as a concubine.

With the lessons of the past, other merchant families are even more enthusiastic about this matter, and the post inviting Luan Xiaochen to the banquet also fills the entire desk.

The businessman behaved so wildly because of the relationship of interests. Relatively speaking, the people's gratitude is much purer. Especially Yang Bao came to a serial series of punishments on this matter, relying on the world's knowledge of the teahouse to make it known to the people. Whether it is a 70-year-old or a 3-year-old child, they know about it, and they know that as citizens of Lao Province, they have more security when traveling abroad, and they can be respected from the bottom of their hearts, which is something they never dared to think of before.

The province of Laos led them to do it, and in order to show their gratitude, the people had to bow their heads and work hard, while the people of appropriate age naturally chose to enlist in the army to ensure that the fruits of their current victory would not be stolen by others. They are such a reality that whoever is good to them, they will do a hundred good to them.

This is exactly what the people want.

After experiencing this incident, the hearts of the people began to belong, and after the various decrees in Luan Xiaochen's mouth were issued, they could always be implemented and implemented as quickly as possible, and Laos Province entered a period of rapid development.

When Yang Chendong returned to Vientiane City with the main force of mercenaries, he saw this thriving scene, which made him naturally happy. In order to create enough space and environment for the development of Laos Province and Vietnam Province, he also ordered envoys to go to Siam and Ava respectively to discuss cooperation.

There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests. Business alliances can grow stronger than each other, so why do they have to fight? Even the powerful mercenaries deliberately put down their swords and guns, and they naturally pushed the boat and agreed to a temporary peace. It's just that everyone knows that sooner or later there will be a battle between each other, and now is the time to take advantage of the situation to vigorously develop and strengthen themselves.

The external threat has been solved, and there is no problem with internal integration, and this is also the moment when Yang Chendong is going to leave Laos.

The Security Bureau is now a telegram a day, telling about the situation between Beiming and Warat, where a small army battle has begun, and if this development continues, if no one controls it, I am afraid that the start of the big war will be unstoppable. Even so, Yang Chendong definitely wants to get a piece of the pie. In addition, because the heritage is not strong enough, Laos has been unable to meet the requirements of expansion in a short period of time, and there is no great significance in staying here, so his departure has become an inevitable trend.

Yang Chendong decided to leave. One step ahead of him was a group of main forces led by Division Commander Leng Song. Red Embedded City can't be without a strong military force, and someone needs to go back to defend it. Following their departure, the Sixth Young Master also finalized the candidates he would take with him when he left, that is, the three regiments of Leng Feng Wusheng, and the six auxiliary battalions that had been experienced in a hundred battles and already had good combat power, they only needed to be exercised, and it was inevitable that they would become Leng Feng in the future. Left behind was Luo Po's 2nd Regiment, responsible for the security of Laos and Vietnam.

Yang Chendong has basically agreed to expand Luo Po's Second Regiment into Leng Feng's Second Division, and the selection and assessment of personnel must indeed be carried out in the Red Embedded City. The political trial level should not be sloppy either, Leng Feng is the most elite force under him, and there will never be a situation that cannot be controlled, if that is the case, it is better not to expand.
