"Did you see it? Did you all hear it? This is the power of the times. It is moving forward unstoppably..." Xiang Shaolong held a telegram in his hand and read triumphantly. Opposite him was a group of foreigners who were dumbfounded. Sister-in-law Suo Keluoer said on the Internet, watch the most arrogant and clear girl I said
The young and old men in the Far East were all stunned. In their eyes, Lord Long was their king, and the legendary golden Ryukyu of the distant Chinese people was just a legend. Xiao Letian's status was no less than that of a god.
The indigenous men in the Far East here were trying to find a way to make Mr. Long the emperor. Suddenly, a thunderbolt came out of thin air. A short king.
Xiao Letian actually didn't even want to be Prime Minister for life, but just accepted the title of Head of State.
"This, this, this...is this a trick?" Lao Shen was so angry that he threw the pipe and pot.
Xiang Shaolong looked at them and said earnestly, "Conquer the country, sit on the country, and then pass it on from son to son, and then to grandson. After three generations, the country has been messed up with no future, and it is like the Qing Dynasty, with weapons everywhere, and then seduces foreign invaders to invade?"
"Is this what you want? Are you still going the same old way?"
Everything Xiang Shaolong said made everyone present speechless. Everyone lowered their heads and smoked and drank tea without speaking.
"Why I am not the emperor? It is because I hope to give you all a prosperous life for eternity... Maybe you don't understand but I have to say it!"
"The old saying says that wealth lasts only three generations, and it definitely makes sense. We may be able to control our children and grandchildren while we are alive, but we will die sooner or later. What if we leave so much power to our children and grandchildren, what if they act recklessly?"
"You push me to be the emperor of the Far East Kingdom. In fact, all you want is to be crowned marquis and prime minister under me, and to be regarded as a powerful noble... It's not that I, Xiang Shaolong, don't want to give it to you. For the sake of this battle in the Far East, you Almost every household wears mourning and cries every inch of the way. You have sacrificed your lives, and you deserve to be given generous salaries to your high-ranking officials!"
"But this era is different now. The Prime Minister said that the era of shutting down and living one's own life is over in the future. You can no longer make the slightest mistake in governing the country. As long as you reveal a flaw, the enemy will pounce on you like a wolf and will not bite you." It’s not over until you die!”
"Therefore, professional matters must be left to professionals. The prime ministerial system is not lifelong. This avoids the situation where mediocre people occupy power for a long time. This also gives a country the opportunity to constantly correct chaos, rather than making mistakes again and again. Fall into the river!"
"Actually, from the immediate perspective, we seem to have taken a step back, but in the long run, if a country in the Far East can maintain peace for a long time, we, the founding fathers, will not suffer any loss!"
"Is it better to waste all the blessings for three generations? Or is it better to slowly enjoy the blessings slowly? You should have a calculation in your mind..."
It can be said that Mr. Long has plundered all the stocks in his stomach to reason with these people. He is not Xiao Letian, and he does not have such a good eloquence. Although the truth is explained clearly, his appeal is not enough.
If Xiao Letian will never talk about these big principles here, as an excellent speaker, before you speak, you must first see who your audience is. The person sitting in front of Mr. Long today is not an intellectual. , business elites, folk scholars...
It's useless for you to talk nonsense to these people. These indigenous people living in the white mountains and black waters have to fight against cold, ice, snow, and wild beasts every day. Adult men have never hunted or killed wolves.
Even basic farming civilization has not been established here. The tribal civilization is still in the fishing, hunting and gathering stage. It is simply delusional to expect that such people can have a profound vision for a hundred years.
These people believe in seizing immediate benefits!
A shaman from the Oroqen tribe stood up. His whole body was jingling with strange jade accessories. He bowed deeply to Lord Long and said, "We old hunters in Oroqen believe in a proverb, unless I don't want the fish in my net, Otherwise, others can’t steal it!”
"What I give to my friends is my friendship. If I don't want to give it away, others must not take it away!"
"Following the general in the war made us understand a truth. The Qing Dynasty is no longer reliable, and Rakshasa ghosts are not good things. If we want to live a good life, we have to do it ourselves!"
"With the founding of the Far East, the people who have the final say can only be our own people. We can't let irrelevant people come to power! Even if he is the smartest person among the Han people in the south, he can't ride on our heads...I want to establish a prime ministerial system. I disagree, and I even more disagree that General Xiang should not be emperor!"
"If you don't take that seat, who will do it? Do you want to watch us kill each other?"
Li Gui and Ding Si clapped their thighs and jumped up, "That's right! General Xiang, just listen to our advice. This is just like choosing a eldest brother in the underworld. You are the biggest boss and everyone will admire you. You will be the emperor and we will be the ministers. No one has anything to say and everyone is doing well!”
"But if you step down and the top spot is empty, what will we do? Let me lift the lid. Everyone below has their own merits and their own disciples. No one will obey others. If you don't accept it outside the customs, you will have to do it, and when the time comes, the white knife will go in and the red knife will come out!"
"You are no longer the boss, so you have to fight one more time to convince the crowd with a boss. Only then can the world be at peace? Tell me, how many more people do you want to die in the Far East!"
"You..." Xiang Shaolong was so pushed that he almost lost his breath. He thought about a solution for several days, and even thought of a clever plan to take advantage of the situation and use the impact of Ryukyu's offer to persuade these stubborn guys. However, Unexpectedly, these people's heads were all carved from stone, and they were unable to breathe.
This negotiation has fallen into endless quarrels again. Xiang Shaolong refuses to proclaim himself emperor, and the people below disagree. The stew pot outside the wooden house has been simmering for a long time. The big pieces of meat are already emitting a strong fragrance, and the bones The broth cooked by Bangzi turned milky white, but none of the big shots in the room ate it.
The quarrel continued until the moon rose and set, and no result emerged. It was not until Sister Wu finally brought a telegram from the head of state from Vladivostok that the stalemate was broken.
"Xiang Shaolong, what are you doing? The Ryukyu government has come to a perfect conclusion. What about your nation-building plan here? Why hasn't it been released yet? I don't have time to waste. Before I leave for Europe, I must see the Far East Country's nation-building program. !”
Xiang Shaolong rubbed his temples fiercely, "Tell the Prime Minister all the problems I'm encountering right now! Just say I'm incompetent and can't control these uncles..."
"Tell the Prime Minister! If I can't come up with the program for the founding of the country in three days, I will ask the Prime Minister to set sail! In the worst case, I will quit... Sister Wu went to order the troops and brought out all the Chinese and Fusang soldiers individually. Three days later If there is no result, let’s withdraw from the Far East and let these gentlemen play with their knives!”
ah? There was an uproar in the room: "General Xiang! You can't give up your choice!"
