After Lin Fei finished saying this, he only heard the people below whispering, especially the Chinese craftsmen sitting on his left, only to hear Qian Wangling whisper to Guan Shanyue: "Country? What is the state? ”

Guan Shanyue whispered: "There is a word 'family' in the word 'country', I think it has something to do with getting married and starting a family, right?" ”

After hearing this, Qian Wangling looked at Ling Xue with a lewd face, and said with a smile: "Sister Xue'er, what is the country?" ”

Lin Fei thought about it carefully and realized that the Chinese who traveled to Nanyang in this era did not have the concept of "country" at all, otherwise they would not let others slaughter them, and Li Mingming, Liu Daming and others did not know anything about politics, nor did they understand what "country" was, and the only person who had the concept of politics was Yu Xier, only his face changed color slightly.

Lin Fei cleared his throat and said: "Let me explain to you what it means to 'establish a country', everyone should have heard the historical story, Han Gaozu beheaded the White Snake Uprising, overthrew the tyrannical Qin, set the capital Xi'an, and changed the name of the country to 'Han', Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew Meng Yuan, fixed the capital of Nanjing, and changed the name of the country to 'Ming'. ”

As soon as Lin Fei said this, everyone nodded, Lin Fei stood up and said to everyone: "Some of you people, some I brought out of the Japanese prisoner of war camp, some I brought out of Ibayat Island, and some I rescued from the Filipinos, I once promised everyone, follow me, no more hunger, no more bullying, now that we have established our own country, we will never be bullied by others again!" ”

Everyone's spirits perked, and Lin Fei continued: "Our country needs a resounding name, and I have already thought of this name, it will be called the People's Republic of China!" ”

Everyone's faces showed excitement, but there were many doubts in this excitement, Liu Daming said at this time: "Lao Lin, what does this name mean?" I know what 'Huaxia' means, but what is 'People's Republic'? ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "The 'People's Republic' is composed of two parts, one is the 'people' and the other is the 'Republic', the meaning of 'the people' is simply all of us; ”

Liu Daming laughed and said: "I don't need to explain so much, I have figured it out now, what kind of people's republic, what are you doing to make so much trouble?" Didn't we just build a court ourselves? You are the emperor of the imperial court, come on, let's kowtow to the emperor. ”

Liu Daming stood up and was about to kneel, at this time, all the craftsmen, Li Mingming and others also stood up, Lin Fei hurriedly said: "Everyone don't have to kneel!" ”

Everyone was stunned, and the old craftsman Su Yunzhao said, "Aren't you the emperor?" How can there be any reason not to kneel to the emperor? The crowd agreed.

Lin Fei said helplessly: "There is no emperor in the republic. ”

The craftsmen began to discuss again: "How can you do without an emperor?" Isn't that a king's law? "Yes, yes, the court must have an emperor, isn't there such a saying, the country cannot be without a king for a day......"

Lin Fei thought helplessly: "These people's thoughts are still stuck in the imperial era, and they really can't get used to getting a people's republic for them, so let's do it, the Chinese People's Republic will be temporarily changed to the Chinese Empire, and I will be the emperor temporarily, and then abolish the imperial system when the conditions are ripe." ”

So Lin Fei stretched out his hands and pressed down, and said, "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me." ”

Everyone quieted down, and Lin Fei said loudly: "I have decided, our country will be renamed 'Huaxia Empire', and I am the emperor of this country, but don't bow down when you see me in the future, and don't call me 'Shengshang' and 'Long live' or anything like that, everyone still calls me 'City Lord', the soldiers in the army still call me 'Captain', Lao Liu Laoyu These life and death brothers still call me 'Lao Lin', do you understand?" ”

After all, Lin Fei is a modern person and has no good impression of the imperial system, so he doesn't like others to call him emperor. Everyone agreed in unison, Lin Fei asked everyone to sit down, and said: "The capital of our Chinese Empire is set in Yanhuang City, and we will discuss the national flag and national emblem, and the most important thing now is to set up state institutions." ”

"Agriculture is the foundation of the country, so we must have a Ministry of Agriculture, and I have decided to let the tea king Lao Han serve as the Minister of Agriculture; With agriculture, there must also be industry, especially since we need to send troops to expand our power in the future, and we need industry to produce weapons and equipment even more. ”

"Now that our Huaxia Empire has two major industrial cities, Yanhuang City and Chiyou City, I have decided to set up a Ministry of Industry to oversee the development of industry, and Ling Xue will serve as the Minister of Industry."

"When we are developing industry, there are some equipment and raw materials that need to be purchased from overseas, so I need a department that is specifically responsible for foreign trade, and this department is the Ministry of Commerce, and this Ministry of Commerce also manages some domestic businessmen, and Chen Fu will be the minister."

"Business needs the support of money, and in the future, the Chinese Empire will use the renminbi, and I need a special department to be in charge of the issuance of currency, and this institution is the central bank, with Chiyo Mika as the president, and the central bank is responsible for depositing and lending in addition to issuing currency."

Lin Fei took a sip of water when he said this, and then said: "We already have a lot of land, and we need to lay roads and build bridges on these lands, so we need to set up a Ministry of Transportation, with the road builders of the Ling Kee Construction Bureau as the minister. ”

"After the roads and bridges are widely built, there will definitely be a lot of people entering Yanhuang City and Chiyou City, so we need to build more houses in the city, in our country, only two cities are far from enough, we also need to build more cities, we must have a Ministry of Construction, responsible for the planning and design of the city, and the post of minister will still be handed over to the craftsmen of the Construction Bureau."

"With the increase of land and population, disputes and disputes between people will also increase, so I need to set up a Ministry of Public Security and a Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Public Security is responsible for establishing a police force, the Ministry of Justice is responsible for establishing courts, the duties of the police are very similar to the arrest of the Qing court, the court does things very similar to the yamen of the Qing court, there is no such institution on the island now, this is absolutely not possible, as for the candidates for the Minister of Public Security and the Minister of Justice, I have not thought of a suitable one at present, so I will be personally responsible for it first."

"In our country, we still need a Ministry of Education, which is used to educate children and adults, but now there is a shortage of teachers on our island, so the Ministry of Education needs to be put on hold for a while."

Lin Fei paused at this time, looked at everyone and said: "I just said that the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Commerce, the Central Bank, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Construction and other institutions, the ministers of these institutions are directly responsible to me, and you will do whatever I ask you to do." ”

Several ministers appointed by Lin Fei nodded their heads in agreement, and as soon as these departments were established, the framework of the entire Chinese Empire was also built.

After talking about the state administration, Lin Fei turned his head to Liu Daming and the others, and said, "Now I'll talk about the military side again." We have officially established the army and navy of the Chinese Empire, and I am the commander-in-chief of the army and navy, and every action of the army must be under my command, do you have no objections? ”

At this time, the high-ranking officers of the army were all rescued by Lin Fei from the Japanese prisoner of war camp, and they were loyal to Lin Fei, so naturally they would not have any objections, Lin Fei continued: "I have set up two more departments in the army, one is the General Staff and the other is the General Logistics Department, the General Staff is headed by Li Mingming, and the General Logistics Department is headed by Chen Jingui. ”

"There is a fleet in the navy, consisting of the Nuwa ship, the Pangu ship and five transport ships, because our navy is now lacking warships, so we will not set up various institutions for the time being, so as not to bloat personnel."

"Limited by scientific and technological conditions, we are not yet able to build warships, so the development of the Navy is mainly based on research and development technology, and the research and development of technology is responsible for the Ministry of Industry.

"The most important thing for the army now is to expand the strength, now we have two and a half battalions of troops, about 1,000 people, the next step is to fill three battalions, one battalion is 420 people, three battalions is 1,260 people, recruit enough people."

Lin Fei said this, picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of water, Li Ming took advantage of this time and said, "Holy ......"

Lin Fei's eyes widened, and Li Ming hurriedly changed his words: "Captain, how did you recruit 1,260 people?" Too little, right? ”

Lin Fei said: "1,260 people is enough, the total population of our country is only 180,000, excluding the 40,000 industrial population, the agricultural population is only 140,000, that is to say, every three farmers have to feed a person who is not engaged in agricultural production, this pressure is already relatively large, and the number of troops is too large for farmers to bear." ”

"Our troops are equipped with automatic rifles, although I ordered that continuous fire is not allowed on the battlefield, only single burst fire, and automatic rifles are used as semi-automatic rifles, but the consumption of bullets is still amazing, behind the consumption of bullets is the consumption of copper ore, mercury thunderate and nitrocellulose, and we cannot afford to consume it if there are more troops."

"You don't have to worry that the number of troops of 1,260 people is too small, looking at the wars that have occurred in the history of the Philippines, including the war between Britain and Spain for the Philippines, the war of the Spaniards to suppress the uprising of the locals, etc., the number of Spanish participants in the war is only a few hundred or thousand, and the size of our army is completely sufficient."

Li Ming nodded after listening, and then the Tea King stood up, bowed down, and said: "Today is the happy day of the establishment of our Chinese Empire, I shouldn't have said this, but I have to say it......
