What struck Tang Mo the most was that there was a country called Shu in the southwest of the Great China Empire. This country actually had no monarch and implemented a parliamentary system.
It's just that this parliamentary system does not rely on elections, but is controlled by the local nobles, and the national decision-making is completely made by the noble assembly.
At that time, when Tang Mo first learned about the system implemented in Shu, he was surprised by it. And when Tang was targeted by many countries, he wondered why Shu's system was not hostile to other countries.
Later, he learned that this kind of parliament, which was completely controlled by the nobles, was actually still operating as a feudal system. It just killed the king and the emperor, and no one dared to monopolize power for fear of being killed, so he
Will play such a trick.
The operating model of the Shu Kingdom is actually very simple: a group of elders discuss with each other and come up with a more feasible plan for implementation, which can avoid decision-making errors to a certain extent.
Of course, this set of things will inevitably have many problems during its operation. The biggest problem is that when a large group of people cannot come up with any decent plan, the entire country's response will be quite slow.
The Tang Dynasty's wireless invention gave Shu a round of dividends. This communication convenience gave new vitality to the aristocratic parliamentary system, allowing them to speed up communication and make up for some of their own shortcomings.
In this wave of reforms set off by the victory of the Tang State, the Shu State was indeed at the forefront. Although their aristocratic parliamentarians were as corrupt as the ministers of other countries, they also had their own advanced side.
These nobles are usually also businessmen, doing business themselves or supporting merchants. In short, they have a closer relationship with business and are more sensitive.
They first accepted the advanced technology of the Tang Dynasty so that they could earn more money. In the process, they very wisely developed some capitalist laws.
The main reason for formulating these laws is to protect their private property, but these laws also indirectly encourage production and give workers some "benefits".
So when the news of Shu's reform in full swing was sent to Tang, Tang Mo almost thought he saw the birth of another capitalist country.
The Shu Kingdom is not only a major grain producer, but also rich in mineral resources. This is not surprising at all, because their territory is connected to the southern part of the Chu Kingdom and has many mountains.
With mountains and water, there are naturally a lot of mineral deposits. In addition, Shu is also an exporter of wood, medicinal plants, tea, etc. At the same time, they also own a large plain in the south of their country.
This plain is far away from the Great China Empire and Chu State, so it is equivalent to a very safe rear area. This is also the confidence of Shu State, allowing it to stand firm.
The characteristics of merchants governing the country allowed the country to transform quickly, and their efficiency was not low driven by money. This made Shu one of the countries at the forefront of the wave of changes set off by the Tang Dynasty.
Another country that impressed Tang Mo was the State of Qin. This country had always been under pressure to survive, and the enlightenment of the King of Qin indeed exceeded Tang Mo's expectations.
On the second day after the armistice began, the king sent a special envoy to purchase a series of weapons and equipment from the Tang State.
They really want everything, including submachine guns, semi-automatic rifles, machine guns, and armored vehicles. If Tang Mo is willing to sell, they are even willing to buy tanks and advanced fighter jets.
From the attitude of the other party, there was no indication that they had had a brief confrontation with the Tang State. The two sides even fought to the death in some positions.
In addition to purchasing weapons and equipment, the State of Qin was also very interested in the system of the Tang State, because the military merit system that the King of Qin had thought up by himself strengthened the Qin State's military force, but he was unable to revitalize the Qin State's economy.
Therefore, the State of Qin sent special envoys to study in the State of Tang. They planned to introduce the advanced technology of the State of Tang and develop various minerals and oil in their country.
They are rich in natural gas and have a large amount of rare mineral deposits. Due to the climate, they also produce cotton.
If they have the technical support of the Tang State, the people of the Qin State believe that they can also live a prosperous life. If they have the advanced weapons of the Tang State, the people of the Qin State also believe that they can defeat the orc barbarians in the west and further expand their territory.
In addition to introducing advanced technology, the Qin State also wanted to examine the political system of the Tang State. They were eager for anything advanced because they were already afraid of poverty and had a strong mentality that others could not match.
It's just a pity that they really don't have much money. Qin's economy is really not a bit worse than that of the Great China Empire. Otherwise, they would not have become a satellite of the Great China Empire and a pawn of the Great China Empire.
The poor and martial Qin State was willing to share its mineral resources with the Tang State, but because it was separated by the Great China Empire, this sharing was not safe.
Therefore, Qin could only pay cash to buy everything they wanted from Tang, which indeed delayed Qin's self-improvement.
However, the two sides soon found a cooperation project: Qin purchased a batch of arms from Tang, and then they used orc slaves to repay the money.
The Tang Dynasty was in urgent need of labor to build its huge territory. When the goblin slaves were unable to sustain themselves, they really needed some cheap labor to supplement them.
Tang Mo did not want to use the captives of the Great China Empire as slaves. After all, these were human beings and the potential population of the Great Tang Empire. He did not want to waste them casually.
Moreover, abusing captives does indeed degrade character. There is a certain difference between abusing goblins and orcs compared to abusing humans. However, for those orc slaves, the treatment of labor slaves in the Tang Dynasty may be better than their previous living conditions.
Some, so it may not be considered abuse...
Of course, Tang Mo will not let these orcs sacrifice in vain. He will hand over the jurisdiction of these people to Le'er, and allow these orcs to become commoners of the Tang State in a few years and live equally on the land of the Tang State. This
It is a long process and also a test.

As long as these laborers from afar can help the Tang Kingdom get through the most difficult initial stage of construction, then Tang Mo won't mind seeing some greenskins on his territory.
As for ethnic minorities, they will get extra points in the exam. If a green orc with fangs appears in the military academy, it will definitely be an interesting thing.
There are also some orc tribes in the southern part of Chu State, and there are even some elves further south. If you want to do slave business, Chu State can actually give it a try.
However, Chu State now has a cornucopia of treasures, and its oil itself is a huge wealth, so the whole Chu State is no longer in the mood to fight.
Not long after the war ended, Chu State received assistance from Tang State in the form of 2,000 cars and 400 armored vehicles.
Under the guidance of engineers from the Tang State, the Chu State started building 15 large airports in the mountainous area, and was also building roads between the new royal city and the eastern port.
With the help of Tang State, the entire Chu State was like a huge construction site, with a prosperous scene everywhere.
In the past, the nobles of Chu State looked down on the southern mountainous area because the living conditions here were not good and there was no output.
But things are completely different now. There are a lot of oil resources here, and at the same time there are many conveniences that were not available in the past.
In order to avoid another flood disaster, the Tang State's engineering team entered Chu State and began to build dams on the upper reaches of various rivers. These water conservancy projects could also generate large amounts of electricity, providing sufficient energy for Chu State's new cities.
With these energy sources, there will be no bottlenecks in the urban modernization of Chu State, and there will be the possibility of development. The nobles of Chu State, who are used to living a luxurious life, suddenly found that life in the valley did not seem to be as miserable as they imagined.
There is a bit of a trend towards becoming a wealthy person.
Because they became the younger brother of the Tang State, the Chu State received most-favored-nation status in many aspects. For example, their airports could be directly used by Tang State's aircraft. The routes opened by Tang State Airlines directly allowed Chu State's airports to be used.
.
Therefore, the DC-3 aircraft purchased by Chu State can be used for domestic routes, which makes up for the shortcomings of insufficient quantity.
Tang Mo also didn't expect that his oppression of Chu State would actually create a group of otherworldly versions of Middle Eastern princes. The king of Chu State and the nobles below directly developed themselves into "the best person in the world with a piece of cloth on their head"
"rich" appearance.
In Tang Mo's view, these countries in the Chinese community were rushing towards "parliamentary republic", "constitutional monarchy", and "local tyrants" respectively. The picture was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to look directly at it.
In addition to this, another relatively enlightened country is the Susas Empire, because this empire relied on transformation to become a powerful country under the leadership of "Dandelion" sent by Tang Mo.
Unfortunately, the previous prime minister died, and Dandelion, who had been leading the reform, returned to the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the Susas Empire could not grasp the focus of the reform for a while, and seemed a bit clumsy in this change.
There are also conservative countries. The Nanla Empire, which is farthest away from this world war that has involved most of the world, has hardly changed at all.
The emperor of the Nanla Empire didn't seem to care at all about the rise of the Tang Empire far away on the Western Continent. He only cared about whether the emperor of the Tang Empire was his son-in-law.
Therefore, Princess Nanla, who came from afar, stayed in Chang'an and never left. She often attended various high-class dances and acted as if she would not leave if Tang Mo did not marry her.
It is a pity that people who are familiar with the upper class circles of the Tang Dynasty know that His Majesty Tang Mo, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, never attends parties such as dances and receptions.
He doesn't have that time either: you know, because the whole design is very complicated, Tang Mo has been working on his "World Nuclear Peace" project recently, and he doesn't even have his two sons with him, so how can he go to some bullshit party?
