Chapter 110 Dragon Slaying Technique
Dong Milia was taken aback by Mu's words.
This is not only because what he said seems too deviant in this era, but more importantly because of his unreserved frankness.
It's as if I'm still flirting with you with reserved glances, but you've already taken a picture of the account book...
It was... quite sudden.
But she didn't know that Mu had been waiting for this moment for a long time!
"The development of industry and commerce requires three prerequisites: a unified system, an open market, and a stable situation.
And today's enfeoffment nobles can't provide the same!
The feudal nobles will divide the kingdom, and they all have the right to arbitrarily formulate laws and taxation standards in their territories, resulting in one law for each place, or even one law for each city. Such an extremely inconsistent system will only become an obstacle to trade routes.
At the same time, they are still hindering the flow of people and goods. Most nobles do not want their citizens to go to work in other cities, nor do they want to see high-priced goods from other places being dumped in their territories. For this reason, they block the borders and set up checkpoints at will.
In the end, too many nobles are still a ticking time bomb for the domestic situation. Unless there is always enough external pressure, there will be far more dirty and conflicts between the major families than their superficial love affairs!With them, a stable situation will always be a luxury! "
Although Mu's words were somewhat exaggerated and targeted, it is undeniable that these are inherent drawbacks of the feudal system.
Capital and feudalism are natural opposites.
In the previous life, a certain beautiful country allowed the existence of slavery until the 19th century, but no country could allow the existence of enfeoffment after the completion of modernization.
The opposition between capital and feudalism is to some extent more acute than the opposition between capital and red tide in the future!
Although there are more elves in this world, the way humans create wealth has not changed fundamentally, so this opposition is still irreconcilable.
Dong Milia was really scared by Mu's words.
But after all, she is a woman who has been the head of the church for six years on her own in the unaccompanied New World.
In the past she just lacked direction, but she never lacked wisdom.
In a few seconds, she initially digested Mu's point of view, and her eyes became brighter and brighter.
But at the same time, she pointed out the problem sharply.
"However, after sweeping away the nobles, how should the royal family manage the country?"
If there is no middleman to make the difference, I believe that every king is willing in his heart. The question is, how to do it?
Mu suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"Didn't you already do it in the New World?"
"what?"
"It's the model of the church. It uses a unified belief to restrain the people's thinking, and cooperates with a meticulous management system that goes directly to the grassroots."
Whether the rule is firm or not is often closely related to the level of grassroots management.
The flower growers in the previous life achieved great unification as early as the Qin Dynasty. At that time, the information transmission and carrying capacity were not as good as those in the European Middle Ages.
Among them, the county and county management system that goes directly to the grassroots level is indispensable!
In the Old Continent of this world, when the rule of most of the old nobles was still limited to the rough stocking model of sending a tax collector to collect taxes in one town and a team of knights to patrol several towns, Wintermilia had already come up with a detailed charter for allocating magistrates by region, dividing jurisdictions, clarifying management boundaries, and grading positions in the New Continent.
This is still the result that she did not find the direction and made it unintentionally.
In Mu's opinion, the extent to which her elder sister was favored by the world had reached the point where the goddess of fate would smile at her unconditionally.
"But at that time, my church was only the size of a few small towns, and the kingdom..."
"If you are worried that the kingdom is too large and the abilities of grassroots management officials are uneven, then you should formulate written laws and use clear legal provisions to regulate and guide their work."
At this point, Mu finally tried to see it, and threw out his sharpest dragon slaying technique.
That's right, what he's teaching Wintermelia now is the constitutional monarchy.
This can be said to be a dragon-slaying sword to end the old feudal system!
Many people have a misunderstanding, thinking that a constitutional monarchy will definitely limit the power of the king, but this is not the case.
This kind of misunderstanding is largely due to the fact that the constitutional monarchy of the Great Empire in the previous life was too famous.
In fact, constitutional monarchy is just a way for the king to kick out noble middlemen and use written laws to directly rule the country.
Constitutional monarchy and monarchy never conflict.
The most typical example is Germany before World War I in the previous life——
At that time, Kaiser Wilhelm, who relied on the civil war to unify the entire territory of Prussia, was in power, and under his command even gave birth to the peak of the world-famous power minister: the iron-blooded prime minister Bismarck!
At that time, Germany was also following a constitutional monarchy, but this did not prevent the Kaiser from saying what he wanted to do.
Although he later hit the streets in World War I, he also helped Germany achieve a rapid leap before the war.
Now what Mu is instilling in Dong Milia is a constitutional monarchy like this.
When the time comes for the constitutional monarchy with his left hand and the harvest of faith with his right hand, he dares to say to all the old nobles: I am not targeting anyone today, I mean that all of you here are rubbish!
It's just that Dongmilia is still hesitating.
"But in this case, we will be enemies of all nobles. In terms of combat power, do we really have a chance of winning?"
This is indeed something to consider.
Because the nobles of this world have elves in their hands.
"So we need primitive accumulation, Your Highness." Mu continued, "accumulating wealth through ocean shipping is accumulation, copying the model of the church to gain public support first is also accumulation, and at the same time, just like what you did in the New World, popularizing elf resources, popularizing elf cultivation methods, and gradually breaking the monopoly of nobles is also an accumulation."
Mu was very calm. He didn't encourage Dong Milia to start a war as soon as she returned to China.
"This time I brought Hikari and the others aboard. Their inventions will also become an important means for your highness to accelerate your accumulation in the future!"
Mu was talking about trains, of course!
He had already handed over the train design ideas to Hikali and the others early in the morning, and he was waiting for the future to take root.
Dong Milia asked again: "But this kind of accumulation has been hindered now. In terms of shipping, my little seventh uncle is intervening. He doesn't want the kingdom to rely too much on maritime trade.
In addition, there is also external pressure from the two major countries of Gardenia and Tulip. The war on the east coast of the New World is almost certain to end in the next few years. By then, the sea route will no longer be as peaceful as it is now! "
All these accumulations that Mu said will take time to lay out. Whether it is the laying of the railway network, the gradual disintegration of the monopoly of the noble elves, or the support of the beliefs of the people at the bottom, it will take a long time to operate secretly.
In the process, shipping has almost become their only means of quickly accumulating wealth.
But this only pillar industry is now facing pressure from both domestic and foreign pressures.
This is why the navy is gradually becoming restless and is anxious to invite Dong Milia back to China.
What Mu just said is the blueprint for the future, but it cannot solve the current difficulties.
In this regard, Mu still seemed very calm.
He said slowly: "I also have an idea about this, Your Highness. I call it: Private Pilot License."

If you are annoying readers, please bear with me. After this explanation, it’s time to start a new plot. It must be the long-awaited one~)
(Ps: Please count the votes at the end, it is urgent and critical~)
