In the core square of Holy Dragon City, the capital of the Holy Dragon Empire, people from the entire country's power center gathered here, and the Emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, the titled Douluo, Kong Lingqiu, who possessed the powerful Purple and Yellow Heaven-Destroying Dragon Martial Spirit, came in person
On the highest speech platform, an extremely important thing was announced to all the people.
"I, the 72nd emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, announce my abdication and have no successor! Starting today, the Holy Dragon Empire will abolish the imperial system. Next, the empire will be reintegrated by Duke Spark to establish a brand new country."
Although there were only a few sentences announced in the world, these few sentences alone immediately caused an uproar.
What is abdication? What is the abolition of the monarchy, and what is reintegration by Duke Spark? This is simply unheard of. The nobles in the entire country fell silent. After receiving the news, they felt that something was wrong and immediately wanted to get involved.
Escape with your own property.
They know very well what kind of idiots the Duke of Fire and his Spark Legion are. All the nobles under their rule will have their property confiscated. Although they may not necessarily suffer persecution, they will definitely need to obtain it through labor in the future.
wealth.
This alone is absolutely unacceptable to them. People with high status have to be like those mud-legged people, relying on hard work to make money to support their families. If they have just become rich for one or two generations, it is barely acceptable, but how many times?
Ten generations of people have been nobles, and dozens of generations have been accustomed to acquiring wealth without labor.
If you naturally regard this method as normal, how can you accept that you can rely on your own labor to support yourself in the future?
However, they found that even if they wanted to run away now, there was no place to run. In the past, they could run to the other two empires if they encountered any bad domestic policies.
But now the other two empires suffered first. The Spark Legion invaded the palace with overwhelming force. Not only that, they also captured all the royal families of the two empires. Even the emperors of the two empires did not escape.
In the area occupied by the Spark Legion, the nobles are still living in dire straits. In fact, compared to the civilians, their situation is already pretty good. At least they are literate, so they can engage in labor that consumes less physical energy.
It's much easier than real civilians, but in their eyes, this is already in dire straits. People who force them to use their knowledge to work are the worst evil.
If they escape to these two empires, their situation will probably be even worse than now. What if they run overseas? In the past, there was no such option. After all, the sea route has not been opened. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King lying in the middle, no one can
Don't dare to provoke.
But now the trade between the two continents has been quite prosperous, and many Douluo people have even settled on this continent, but this is also a dead end, because all ships capable of ocean trade are controlled by Duke Xinhuo
In his hands, the other ships had no way of crossing the soul beast territory on the ocean.
Trying to escape on the enemy's ship is simply a fantasy. I'm afraid he will be recognized as soon as he gets on the ship, and then taken away for one-stop processing. This operation can be described as throwing himself into a trap.
As a result, these nobles didn't know what to do. They had no place to transfer their property. In the end, they had no choice but to come up with a bad idea and find a hidden ravine to bury all their treasures.
At least for a long time, the value of precious metals such as gold and silver will still be very high. If you bury these things underground, even if all your property is liquidated, you will have to suffer for a few years. After this period of limelight passes, you can start again.
Dig out the treasure buried in the ground.
Complete the primitive accumulation of capital in a short period of time, and then become a master of the new world again, allowing your family to continue, and sit back and watch others struggling in the mud.
Many people have this idea to sort out their most precious treasures, and even the family personally finds a place that no one knows and has them buried. In order to prevent anyone from knowing where these treasures are buried, they almost always
Relying on his own hands to bury it, even the most trusted servants don’t know where to hide it.
However, their operation was simply useless. Others didn't know where they hid the treasure. How could Lan Nuo not know?
Not to mention that his powerful mental power can easily see through hundreds of meters underground. By flying around the area near these families, he can find a large number of places where treasures are buried.
Let’s just say that all those who bury treasures have installed space systems.
In other words, after obtaining the camera permission, Lan Nuo could completely see where they buried the treasures through their eyes. This even saved the Spark Legion from having to find all the treasures they had hidden at home. In the end,
The precious and most hidden ones were all dug out by themselves and hidden in different places. Now all the treasures that might not have been found were now known where they were.
Lan Nuo wants to know now. What will these guys who think they can hide their secrets look like when they run to their treasure place in the future and dig around but find nothing?
At the same time, Emperor Shenglong, who had been trapped in the spiritual world, was finally released by Lan Nuo, but his appearance was changed and he became an ordinary waiter in the palace. After he woke up
The first scene witnessed was the spy disguised as himself and announced his abdication and abolition of the monarchy.
After seeing this scene, he was still a little confused and didn't know what was going on. But as he thought about the sense of disobedience that appeared from time to time in the spiritual world and his current situation, he suddenly understood what?
"Is it possible that I have been plotted long ago? I thought I was continuing to rule the country, but in fact it was just a dream. But now I have been truly released. Because I am useless now." Shenglong
The thoughts in the emperor's mind were spinning rapidly, and he soon thought of this possibility. He wanted to kill the spy disguised as himself.
How is it possible to abdicate? Not to mention abolishing the monarchy. This is not something that he alone will suffer as the emperor, but that the emperor behind him will no longer have the right to inherit the throne in the future, and the entire family will completely decline.
Losing the capital that was so high in the past.
However, he couldn't do anything. He had even lost his former identity. He could only watch helplessly as the guy who looked exactly like him threw his crown out with his own hands and smashed it on the square.
He was so angry that he fainted on the spot. However, death is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing for him is to face his ordinary second half of life. From now on, he is just an ordinary person who needs to live in the new world.
It was simply unimaginable for him to use his own means to make a living in the world without any capital to enter and to rely on his own strength for everything.
Losing his superior status, losing his identity above others, and needing to be subordinate to others, even listening to other people's orders and providing services to others, this is simply unimaginable and unacceptable to him. However,
If he wants to live, he must accept this.
Lan Nuo didn't put too much energy into him. This guy was useless now. The emperor was gone. There was no point in continuing to raise him and acquire his habits of dealing with others.
However, he seemed to be crazy now and grabbed Lan Nuo's arm: "Tell me, this is just a dream you made up! Wake me up! You bastard! How dare you cast illusions on me, you know
What will be the end of this?"
Lan Nuo rolled his eyes: "If you think this is a bad thing, then die here! Maybe you can go back after you die."
Emperor Shenglong heard this and picked up the kitchen knife, preparing to stab himself in the heart. However, the blade broke open and the pain caused by his skin made him unable to use it immediately. His hands were trembling and he couldn't use it at all.
Without the slightest effort, the fear of death was so real that it couldn't be simulated by illusion at all.
At this moment, he seemed to have completely collapsed, hugging Lan Nuo's thigh: "Let me go back, please let me go back! Even if it was just a dream before! Let me go back to that dream and continue to dream.
I can give up my emperor, the real throne, and the empire to you. Please don’t let me experience such a miserable second half of my life. Just let me spend my whole life immersed in a dream! Please!”
Lan Nuo frowned: "How come you are miserable in the second half of your life? You have much more profound knowledge than others, have versatile skills, and your brain is quite flexible. Even if you live as an ordinary person, the worst is...
If you're lucky enough to be a bookkeeper, you might be able to marry the boss's daughter. Do you know how many ordinary people can't get this kind of life?"
However, these words only made Emperor Shenglong look even crazier, as if the description he heard was not the life that ordinary people longed for, but the horrific torture of hell.
"This is unacceptable? Then just choose to die. No one will stop you. If you don't want to live, just jump into the sea! Why should I care about the second half of your life? The country only needs to ensure the second half of life for most people.
It's enough to be able to live a stable life. I have never seen any country that has to worry about its citizens spending the rest of their lives like an emperor." Lan Nuo threw away the former Holy Dragon Emperor and left him to fend for himself.
With the knowledge in your head, you can live quite well in this age of scarce talents. However, you are afraid of comparison in everything. A life that ordinary people think is good is like torture to him. Lan Nuo naturally cannot
What kind of good looks would you give to such a person?
The Spark Legion has gradually completed the transformation of the two empires. Now when it returns to the Holy Dragon Empire, no one dares to stop it.
On the one hand, the emperor has abdicated, and the management of the empire has been transferred to Duke Xinhuo. It is natural for the Spark Legion to station in the Holy Dragon Empire. There are no legal or moral problems.
On the other hand, no one dared to stop it. This was a blow to the Sun-Moon Alliance Army in one breath. No matter how confident the Holy Dragon Empire was, it did not think it could be much stronger than the two old enemies combined. Faced with it,
If such an army dares to launch an attack, it is simply asking for death.
Even if the nobles in the country are extremely fearful and even angry about the arrival of the Spark Legion, they are powerless at this time. They definitely want to resist. But just look at the fate of the rebels from the other two empires. You will know that resisting is meaningless.
of.
If other people change dynasties, it will not have a great impact on them. For control at the grassroots level, we still need to rely on them. When the time comes, they will still be able to gain power, and they can still do whatever they want in the countryside and be their own local emperors.
You can still manage a bunch of idiots as your own superiors, but this time it's different. Lan Nuo has enough people to serve as grassroots rulers. The Duchy of Xinhuo has cultivated quite a lot of talents.
In this era, those who can read and count are basically considered talents. With these people, there is no need for former landlords to control the grassroots.
Even if the number of these people is still not enough, Lan Nuo still has his own clones. With so many clones, he can cultivate enough talents to take over his job easily.
And these guys who once occupied the end of the country's ruling area have no value in existing.
As for the village losing the force of deterrence, will the staff sent by Lan Nuo be plotted or secretly coerced?
This kind of problem may have occurred in the past, but now there is no need to worry at all. With the existence of the space system, these people can record themselves when they are threatened, retain the evidence, and upload it to the network in real time.
In this case, there is no room for denial at all. If they are caught with evidence of persecuting local officials, the army can directly dispatch to deal with these unruly people. Unless they have the consciousness of dying together, they will never dare to touch Lan.
It is indeed possible for people sent to local areas to automatically collude with local forces to seek benefits for themselves.
But there is no way to hide Lan Nuo. Their camera permissions have been opened up. It doesn't mean that they subjectively don't want to record, their eyes will not be able to see, and their ears will not be able to hear.
At this time, it couldn't be easier to find evidence of collusion between them and local wealthy families. The person in question can be replaced on the same day, and at the same time, those who attempt to collude with government and businessmen can be punished.
Lan Nuo maintains such a strong domestic order, of course, not only because of his own three views, but also because only in this way can this continent prosper quickly. After it prospers, more people will
Only by investing all his energy into entertainment can the entertainment promotion plan formulated by Lan Nuo be realized.
