Chapter 120 [Lead by example]
"Your Majesty, this is indeed unreasonable, but we cannot force citizens to give birth to the next generation!"
“An empire is an empire that respects human rights.”
The Minister of Justice nodded in agreement with the emperor's statement. The empire has such a vast territory and its population is only 500 billion, which is a drop in the bucket.
But the "Imperial Code" has clear rules.
Citizens enjoy their due obligations.
Even the emperor is not qualified to deprive others of their rights and freedoms.
The emperor also had to abide by the "Imperial Code".
If the emperor does not abide by the "Imperial Code", who will abide by the "Imperial Code"?
Of course, the emperor's compliance with the "Imperial Code" is tantamount to hypocrisy, but at least in this matter, the emperor cannot force the will of the citizens.
"If you want to force citizens to breed the next generation, I suggest that Your Majesty should set an example."
The Minister of Justice pondered for a moment and said.
Only His Majesty, by leading by example, can force the citizens of the Empire to breed the next generation.
You see, His Majesty the Emperor has set an example, and you want to disobey the Holy Will?
"I suggest that Your Majesty should lead by example."
The Prime Minister and others looked at His Majesty the Emperor and expressed that they agreed with the Minister of Justice's proposal.
Yang Yu:......
“Why use coercive means to encourage citizens to have children?”
"The fourth-generation super soldier serum has been successfully tested. Does this mean that the empire can popularize the first-generation super soldier serum to imperial citizens?"
"Isn't it great to use the temptation of super soldier serum to encourage citizens of the empire to have children?"
Yang Yu looked at the group of ministers in front of him, feeling helpless.
From time to time, she would try to trick him in a roundabout way, and even specially select those particularly beautiful, temperamental, and talented women to work in the Imperial Secretariat.
Is this because they are afraid that he will die suddenly and the empire will collapse?
"Your Majesty, this expenditure is relatively huge. The empire's finances have been under great pressure in recent years. The empire has nearly 500 billion people. If the super soldier serum is widely available to everyone, the financial expenditure will face unprecedented challenges."
"At the same time, it will also lead to social instability in the empire and even cause public security problems."
Finance Minister Ouyang immediately refuted His Majesty the Emperor's words.
Popularizing the Super Soldier Serum will put a lot of pressure on finances.
It will also cause security problems in the empire.
Investment in public security will also increase financial investment.
It’s not worthwhile.
"Your Majesty, the Finance Minister is right. Once the super soldier serum becomes popular, the empire's security issues will inevitably face unprecedented challenges."
"By then, everyone will be a superman, and when committing crimes within the empire, the work of the public security police will be greatly improved."
"If we really want to popularize the super soldier serum, I have no objection. I sincerely ask your majesty to give priority to providing equipment replacement for the security of our empire."
The Minister of Public Security said immediately.
"Actually, it is not impossible to solve the population problem."
Suddenly, a voice broke the discussion between the monarch and his ministers.
"Does the Prime Minister have any good ideas?"
Yang Yu's eyes fell on Prime Minister Long Zhi. What he just said was what the Prime Minister said.
"Two ways."
“First, if the Holy Tiles Empire, the Holy Pamir Empire, the Holy Ace Empire, the Holy Pars Civilization, and other civilizations that were defeated by the empire were absorbed into the empire, it would never be a bad idea. "
"Second, launch the biological cloning breeding program. In fact, through the biological cloning program, sperm and eggs of men and women are collected for biological cloning breeding. In this case, it is not a problem to cultivate 100 billion offspring in one day."
Prime Minister Long Zhi expressed his thoughts.
It is very simple to attract those civilized people to join the empire.
Enable a biological cloning breeding program so we can also tune genetic parameters.
"Nonsense, Long Zhi, what are your intentions?"
"How can a foreign race occupy half of my empire?"
"The second plan is even more shameless and completely violates the empire's moral bottom line. How is it different from the biological lunatics at the Imperial Academy of Engineering?"
Immediately, the Minister of Education and the Minister of Justice stood up and angrily criticized Prime Minister Long Zhi's proposal.
With trillions of people joining the empire, doesn't this mean giving away the empire they worked so hard to build to a foreign race?
After finally suppressing the alien race in the Western Desert to less than 5 billion, you actually dared to introduce so many alien races as citizens of the empire?
What's your intention?
"Dong dong dong."
Seeing that all the ministers here were rolling up their sleeves and fighting, Yang Yu immediately knocked on the table.
"It is impossible to forcefully absorb so many people into the empire."
"This will also cause very unnecessary troubles to the empire's security, and may even cause conflicts in the empire."
"The second option is even more unacceptable. Not only does it violate the empire's ethical bottom line, it will also cause an irreparable psychological flaw in the child."
After suppressing the discussions among the ministers, Yang Yu rejected the prime minister's proposal.
Anything that violates the empire's moral bottom line must not be touched.
How much trouble will this bring to the empire?
It’s not enough to only focus on current growth and ignore the future.
"In short, this matter needs to be left to the cabinet ministers for discussion. It is best to come up with a solution."
He also feels that increasing the population is a very difficult problem.
It is impossible for him to accept large-scale Western Desert people. Joining the empire is equivalent to giving up the empire to the Western Desert people.
"Your Majesty, I still propose it. Your Majesty will lead by example."
Under the emperor's majestic gaze, the ministers left the imperial study.
"what's on your mind?"
Noticing that Secretary-General Lin Xin was thinking about the problem beside him, Yang Yu asked.
"Your Majesty, I also agree with the ideas of the ministers. Please lead by example." Secretary-General Lin Xin returned to God and said.
"go out."
Yang Yu pinched his eyebrows, what are you all thinking?
I really don't understand what you guys are thinking.
…
The ministers are discussing the population of the empire, and they are also discussing the sale of warships to the Lieyang Civilization.
Three days later.
Pan Zhen and the cabinet ministers of the Star Empire signed a treaty establishing diplomatic relations between the two civilizations.
"General Pan Zhen, Lieyang wants to buy warships from our Star Empire, and our Star Empire very much agrees with it."
"But the sales method and price, maybe..."
Cabinet meeting room.
The Foreign Minister looked at Pan Zhen in front of him and hesitated to speak.
"The price is easy to say, but how do you sell it?"
Pan Zhen said that the price was easy to say, but he still needed to understand the sales method.
"Our empire only agrees to sell the fleet, not individual battleships."
"The empire will only sell the fleet to you Lieyang at ex-factory price, which does not include weapons, military radar systems, etc."
