I am Da Song

Chapter 646 Final Chapter (End)

The crown prince's map of the country and the country showed in front of Zhao Huan a picture of a prosperous people and a strong country.

The magnificent picture scroll of Jianye's prosperous age is slowly unfolding. Whether it is the dazzling gold and emerald greens or the fragrance of Luo Qi, it is far away from the Tianbao period of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the previous generation.

With this kind of civil rule, the Great Song Dynasty naturally tried its best to avoid repeating the mistakes of the previous dynasty.

The prince solemnly said to Zhao Huan: "The national army has reached 210. Among the 200 million forbidden troops, there are 80 elite field troops, with a total of [-] people. Ten of them are directly stationed near Gyeonggi to maintain the deterrent force of the imperial court. .The six are scattered and stationed in important military towns to maintain the stability of the Quartet."

The 210 million army is already considered an absolutely magnificent scale in a feudal society.

Zhao Huan asked, "Will it affect the people's livelihood if we maintain such a large army?"

The prince resolutely said: "Absolutely not. Today, the imperial government's annual fiscal revenue is as high as 850 billion guan, military expenditure is 200 billion guan, and the proportion of expenditure is only a little over 20.00%. This financial ratio is extremely healthy. If there is an emergency, the military The budget can also climb substantially to 80.00% or even 90.00%!"

A financial ratio of 80.00% to 90.00% is really nothing to Da Song.

When the number of troops was severe, most of the national finances were invested in the military, which caused the development of the world to almost stagnate. The infrastructure in the four directions was seriously insufficient, and roads, engineering, and water conservancy were in short supply.

With 200 billion military expenditures, it is no exaggeration to say that this unparalleled wealth can overwhelm all the vassal states in the entire world.

Zhao Huan said with emotion: "I still remember that when we first won the Battle of Tokyo, the empty Taicang of the imperial court was so empty that mice could be starved to death. Even the money for running the Royal Women's College was saved by me from the internal treasury. A sum of money. After the college was established, it encountered a large-scale southward invasion of the Jin Kingdom. Wang Shi and the Jurchens fought fiercely on the three roads of Hebei and Hedong, so there was no more money and food from inside and outside the treasury. Even the salaries of officials , I always ask the ministers to delay the release for two or three months."

"Now there are nearly [-] billion fiscal revenues. It's really like a dream. How did the country expropriate so much wealth?"

The prince said proudly: "It relies on monopolizing the world's sea routes and trade routes. It relies on the incomparably advanced civilization technology to harvest all directions. More importantly, it relies on the large-scale continuous workshops to be unique in the world!"

The Song Dynasty has completely confirmed the status of the coachman on the sea.

Whether it is a powerful fleet, or an intricate insurance network, as well as world-leading sea charts, star charts, and mastery of routes, no country in the world has the slightest chance of competing with Song Dynasty for the position of maritime supremacy.

The ships of the Song Dynasty sailed on all the routes in the ocean.

The wealth brought by the monopoly of ocean trade was continuously transported into the Central Plains from all over the world, which promoted the extreme prosperity of the Central Plains.

In today's world, a consensus has been reached in every corner of civilization, that is, Song Dynasty is the absolute center of the world, the highland of civilization, and the center of civilization.

There is an extremely significant gap in civilization in the whole world, and it can be seen that it is divided into two grades at a glance.

One is the Central Plains of the Great Song Dynasty, a backward area outside the Central Plains.

There is almost a 200-year generation gap between the two civilizations!
The Central Plains is already full of blast furnaces, the cities are prosperous, and the railway mileage extending in all directions is as high as more than [-] miles, connecting all the cities with brilliant civilizations.

Only when you are in the Central Plains can you feel the most brilliant civilization of human beings, and you can feel what it means to be a kingdom of heaven!

The huge gap in civilization shocked every foreign barbarian who entered the Central Plains, thinking that he had entered a paradise on earth.

Countless people will stay in the Central Plains at all costs, and will never return to the barbaric land outside.

The prince introduced to Zhao Huan: "Nowadays, the country has millions of workshops, and the annual output of steel accounts for more than 90.00% of the world's five. And light industry relies on advanced technology, large scale, and perfect system. Cheap prices have crushed all countries under the vassal system."

"Gongqing always said that the country has been ahead of the world for nearly a hundred years, but Taiyuan College has always had different voices."

"Today, there are more than [-] professors and students in the Taiyuan Academy, and the scale even exceeds the total number of men and women in some countries and ethnic groups."

"Most of the academic leaders in the Taiyuan Academy declared to the students that the country was nearly two thousand years ahead of the barbarians when they taught courses."

"But no matter what, my pilgrimage is well-deserved!"

In the end, the prince concluded with great enthusiasm: "Nowadays, a boy with a long hair, but learns to encourage; an old man in Banbai, who doesn't know how to fight. Eight wildernesses compete to play, and all countries are connected. Carved cars compete in Tianjie, BMW competes in Yulu , Jin Cui is dazzling, Luo Qi is fragrant."

"Collecting the treasures of the world, all belong to the market; the peculiar smell of Huihuan District is all in the kitchen. The road is full of flowers, so what is the limit for spring outing?"

Zhao Huan walked out of the hall with a big smile, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance, the great Song Dynasty, the world is full of human kindness and beauty, thrifty and romantic!

【End of the book】

PS: In time for the last day of the year-end, it ended smoothly.

I also wish you all a happy new year, and the rabbits are like brocades!
See you next book.

Leaking it in advance, I personally feel that the next book will be ten times better than this one.

At least for the present seventeen chapters, the author could not be more satisfied.

Especially in terms of storytelling, it is a super complement to the shortcomings of writing.

The protagonists of the two consecutive books are the style of civil servants, and the next one has a different style. The peerless warriors will experience the heroism of the cold weapon era with gold and iron horses, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger!
