"Bang!"
"The new emperor has ascended the throne and the people have done nothing wrong!"
Soldiers from the Imperial City's Military and Horse Division carried gongs and shouted slogans, passing messages around the city.
"Master, what's going on now?"
a fat woman asked softly.
The man continued to lie behind the door, peering through the crack at the street outside.
"The bodies outside have been cleaned up and the blood has been washed away. It seems like everything is fine."
"It's okay. Let's go. It's time to go out and sell breakfast."
Hearing this, the man still felt a little scared.
He turned to the fat woman and said:
"Madam, why don't we wait another day? We can wait until tomorrow to make sure everything is fine before selling it?"
"Ouch." The fat woman stamped her foot and the ground trembled.
"What do we people in the mud have to worry about about things in the sky? Let's go!"
With that said, he opened the door directly.
"Hey, hey, hey?"
A thin man is no match for his wife who weighs more than 200 pounds.
It was directly pushed aside by her palm-like hand.
She carried a huge steamer and walked out first.
Her man had no choice but to push the big pot with hot coals and go out.
"Selling steamed buns..."
As she shouted, more and more people were on the street.
Their lives seemed completely unchanged.
The only difference is that there are some sculpture-like soldiers standing on both sides of the street.
It would be intimidating to be an enemy of these people.
But if they are one of their own, it is reassuring.
In the imperial capital, any scum who dares to sneak around and bully the weak.
As long as he is discovered, he will be chopped down by these soldiers immediately.
Not only does a dead person not scare people, but it actually attracts waves of applause.
The streets have been cleared.
But in the palace and above the court, the maids and eunuchs were still cleaning up the corpses.
Among the corpses stood some ministers who had been found.
They were lowering their heads at this time, too timid to speak.
"Are there any officials left?"
Rhodes looked at the roster and asked softly.
The eunuch on the side said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, that's all."
Rhodes looked up and saw more than ten people standing in the hall.
This is very different from the nominal hundred officials.
There are less than fifty officials on the roster.
But after last night, that's all that's left alive.
Rhodes closed the book and asked, "Do you know who I am?"
The official below said tremblingly: "It's the Emperor."
Rhodes nodded.
Pointing to the chief in charge of the library, he said:
"Go find some historical information to prove that our Luo family is the orthodox one in the East China Sea."
The chief touched the sweat on his head.
He never imagined that he, a small official, would suddenly receive the first important job in the new dynasty.
He quickly knelt down and said, "I obey."
The nondescript court meeting ended quickly.
The chief returned to the library and checked the information for a day and a night. He was so tired that he became paralyzed.
However, he did not find any material that could be used to prove that the Luo family was orthodox.
This made him extremely uncomfortable.
This is no big deal!
If you mess up your first job in the new dynasty, doesn't that prove that you are disloyal to the new dynasty?
Then I'm afraid it's hard to save my life.
Suddenly, he remembered a friend of his named Han.
If there is no history, then write it yourself.
When the time comes, won't it be enough to just put in some effort to make it look a bit old?
So he started taking action immediately.
He dug out some very old furs, animal bones, etc., and started pounding them.
Been busy all night.
The next day, more than a dozen pieces of information proving that the Luo family was the legitimate one were released.
Those materials that originally stated that the Tie family was the orthodox one would be destroyed by a fire that would happen tomorrow.
Well, the kind of fire that no one expected.
Fortunately, there were no casualties or property damage.
These newly created materials will be included in the imperial palace and library and become serious history.
As for other internal documents within the family, they are all untrustworthy unofficial histories and cannot be taken seriously by future generations.
With the success of Rhodes ascension to the throne, all cities in the East China Sea Kingdom decided to announce their plans.
The generals looked at Rhodes sitting on the throne and were a little confused.
They had no idea how Rhodes got into that position.
Moreover, why didn’t any city in Donghai Kingdom resist?
Even if some of them had some ideas, they temporarily gave up their thoughts after seeing such a situation.
........
Fang Chengyun held a piece of paper and looked at it carefully.
"Gradually realize the four modernizations? Let's see... modernization of schools, modernization of transportation, modernization of life, modernization of publicity..."
"What are these?"
Fang Chengyun continued to flip through the pages, and the implementation plan for these things was written in detail at the back.
As for the specific details, he, the prime minister, needs to implement them.
After reading the dense text at the back.
Fang Chengyun touched his chin.
"So, can we still do this?"
Fang Chengyun then began to gather people and study what to do.
The first is mining. Rhodes discovered many mineral deposits in Donghai Kingdom.
It began to attract nearby people to become miners with higher incomes.
While obtaining gold, silver, copper and iron, make a large number of metal utensils.
Rhodes built many more pastures, and with the blessing of Zerg technology, countless sheep were bred.
Recruit a large number of female workers into the workshop to make woolen products.
These are just two aspects of modernization.
As a result, Donghai Kingdom began to produce a large number of low-cost and high-quality products.
These products were continuously exported to three other countries following the trade of merchants.
Then in these places, they purchased food, raw materials, etc. on a large scale.
Let the people there gradually fall into a situation where it is worse to buy than to build.
The wealth of the merchants was pocketed by Rhodes following the pirate attacks.
But the navy of the East China Sea Kingdom is not a vegetarian.
As long as you are a citizen of Donghai Kingdom and have a high-value fixed property in the imperial capital, you can purchase royal trade insurance on a regular basis.
Attacked by pirates and suffered a loss of wealth?
It's okay, the navy will help you clear out the pirates.
Not only will the head of the thief be brought to you, but wealth will also be returned to you.
But pirates, you know, spend money without restraint.
How much you can recover depends on your luck.
Some people have also encountered 100% recovery.
But if the pirates spend all their money.
Donghai State will also compensate you for at least 20% of your losses from the treasury in accordance with the agreement.
Let you still have the capital to continue doing business.
Who doesn’t like this kind of place with high returns and high security?
As a result, countless wealthy businessmen became Donghai citizens by investing in real estate in the imperial capital.
With money and resources, people gradually became rich.
Rhodes began to reform education again.
Promote compulsory education and establish institutions of higher learning.
Taking a two-pronged approach, no one wants to live in such a country.
So a large number of smart people from the Three Kingdoms came to the East China Sea Kingdom.
Once the talents are there, Donghai Kingdom can carry out various research with the whole country.
Various gunpowder weapons, various livelihood appliances, and various bloodline documents were collected.
It all became a research project for these people.
