my wife is a consul

Chapter 590 Tulips

Looking at the data on the table, Lu Ming scratched his head for a while. There were originally more than 5000 people in the Tru Department, but now there are more than 6000 people who died or were convicted in the rebellion. The entire tribe has more than 4000 cattle and more than 8 horses. horses and more than [-] sheep.

To distribute to herdsmen, of course, cattle, sheep, and horses cannot be equally distributed, which is not conducive to grazing, breeding, etc., but each household should either give sheep, or horses or cattle.

How to estimate the value of cattle, horses, and sheep; how to count lambs, horse cubs, calves, etc.;

Fortunately, the eastern grassland has experience, and the tax officials have worked out a set of formulas that can be used.

However, the eastern grassland is not Ma Quanyou's tribe in essence, and it is close to the Central Continent people's land, so it is more or less convenient to communicate. On the Chishui prairie, the problem is much more complicated.

The innovation of Beiping Town is of great significance to solve these problems.

And there is another big problem. In the past, herdsmen households were basically based on the family. There was no division of family. A family usually had more than a dozen members.

Now that the means of production are privately owned, the impact on the concept of a large family is obvious, and this will also create new problems.

If the adults must separate the households, each household will receive fewer and fewer livestock, which is actually unfavorable in terms of animal husbandry.

……

At the same time, a grand ball was being held in the resplendent and resplendent banquet hall of Donghai Tulip Manor, where celebrities gathered.

Lu Ming sat in the corner, thinking about this question.

After the three scale puppets are complete, as if something has been completed, Lu Ming himself and the three puppets can move at the same time.

Of course, if the main thoughts are on the deity, the three puppets are actually doing the same thing, with only one mind and four bodies.

It's the same now, Lu Ming is thinking about the prairie, but he can change the scene in front of him at any time. He is in the grand banquet hall of the East China Sea, pondering in the yurt of the Trubu on the prairie, and thinking about it in the mansion of the chief minister in Luri City. Close your eyes and meditate in the study of Xiangxi Governor's Mansion.

As before, if he cut off the connection with the three puppets, there would be three corpses again.

Generally speaking, if I do things with the three puppets at the same time, I am actually very tired.

Dealing with one side for a while, and dealing with the other side for a while, it is really exhausting to deal with it, instead of becoming four people, each of whom can do their own things.

So generally speaking, the mind can only be put aside, and the three bodies, if they are not resting, are just meditating on problems.

Came to Donghai to participate in the annual Eastern Union Summit. Tonight, the Grand Duke and Duke of Donghai and Duchess Christine held a grand banquet for the leaders. After the banquet, there was a colorful dance.

Then, my "soul" is naturally here.

But what I think about is still the matter of the prairie.

In fact, one of the main topics of this summit meeting is the war in the Northern Territory.

In particular, the Ma Quanyou regime and the Chen Xingchang regime have pledged their allegiance to the kingdom, but the Principality of Montenegro still launched an attack on it.

The First Prince wrote a letter to the Secretariat of the Eastern Alliance, expressing his indignation at the behavior of the Principality of Montenegro.

Therefore, even if I was in the corner, I still attracted whispers.

Moreover, the alliance summit meeting this morning has passed a resolution to stop escorting Pearl Island.

Obviously, most leaders have begun to worry about the aggressiveness of the Principality of Montenegro.

Thinking about it, Lu Ming shook his head.

In this atmosphere, Lu Ming looked at the Governor of Ayton, Michelson, who came to sit next to him, and couldn't help smiling: "It's better for you to stay away from me, an increasingly unruly dictator. Half of the alliance members are planning to expel the Principality of Montenegro from the alliance?"

The largest production and R&D base of Sanmai Group is in Ayton, which is the Roseville District.

Over the years, Lu Ming and Michelson had a very close relationship.

Moreover, Ayton State is about to face a general election, and Lu Ming is fully supporting Michelson in dealing with the strong challenge from candidate Li Hanchao.

Ayton State is in the northern part of the East China Sea. It is a traditional area inhabited by Central Continents. In the past, candidates for governor rarely nominated Central Continents, but the situation is different now. Michelson has long had a strong competitor, the Justice Party Ayton State The leader is Li Hanchao.

Although because Westerners are more experienced in campaigning, coupled with inertia, it was Michelson who defeated Li Hanchao in the last general election.

But with the decline of the empire, Li Hanchao's election platform began to focus on the theory of the blood of the Central Continents, hyping the Central Continent Autonomous Prefecture, and the governor should be the topic of the Central Continents, which also aroused the resonance of many Central Continents.

According to current polls, Li Hanchao is in a slight lead.

However, Li Hanchao is very radical, and his campaign strategy is to manipulate ethnic antagonism, and label everything that his predecessor did wrongly, including the Roswell project introduced by Michelson.

At this moment, Lu Ming looked at Michelson, who had white hair on his side temples, and said with a smile, "We both seem to be quite troubled now."

Michelson shook his head, "Your Highness, you have nothing to worry about. To expel the Principality of Montenegro, apart from you not having the right to vote, all members must agree to pass it. If you want to get one vote, what's the difficulty? You failed in the general election, without my vote, you can win other allies, and..." Then he coughed and stopped talking.

Lu Ming smiled: "Then do you think that I, a dictator in their eyes, always depends on the alliance, does it feel good?" He asked again: "You haven't finished talking, what do you want to say? What do you want to say? Are you covering it up?"

Michelson smiled meaningfully: "I mean, even if the unanimous vote is to expel you, I think the Grand Duke will not hesitate to use the veto power!"

Jurisprudentially, as the "guardian" of the East China Sea Alliance, Grand Duke Charles IX does have the final right to approve the alliance's resolutions.

Although, this is just a process, a dummy power, and no one thinks that the Grand Duke of the East China Sea will veto the resolutions that the alliance has successfully passed.

But if he really uses the veto, the resolution really cannot take effect.

Glancing at Michelson, Lu Ming frowned.

After the resolution of escorting Pearl Island was passed, most of the heads of the members have discovered that whether it is the lobbyists who lobby them or the exchange of interests between the members who voted in favor, it seems that it is Kerry behind the scenes. The operation of the Siting public reserve.

When the Prince of Montenegro was still a lawyer, he had an affair with Prince Christine.

Nowadays, such rumors have suddenly increased again. Of course, they are only limited to the uppermost class of society.

Seeing Lu Ming's expression, Michelson hurriedly said, "I'm just joking, my old friend, you won't be really angry, will you?"

Lu Ming picked up the teacup and sipped the tea.

Michelson smiled bitterly: "It's impossible at first, don't I know you yet? Now you have launched various preferential policies for investment in the Northern Territory, but they have attracted the attention of many big capitals, and many of them are their financial backers , has become your most powerful lobby group, so let me say, you have nothing to worry about, and you are not worried about this matter, you have other worries, right?"

Lu Ming glanced at him, this guy's political sense is really too strong.

If it weren't for the fact that the population of Central Continents in Ayton State accounted for more than 90.00%, and the race card was played by others, it happened to be the time when the civil war broke out in the Empire and the mind was confused.

Then it is impossible for Michelson to lose the state of Ayton, which he has worked for many years since he was a member of Congress.

Shaking his head, Lu Ming said: "I was thinking, in the prairie, I am saving the slaves there and distributing the property of the slave owners to them. However, such a big family's grazing model will inevitably collapse, and it seems that it will kill the grazing there. It must be much better than before, but the number of cattle and sheep will probably shrink. Of course, I mean excluding the advantages brought by new technologies, such as the impact of new feed and various anti-disease injections on animal husbandry, these, Of course, it can make up for the damage caused by changes in the organizational structure of herdsmen society."

Michelson smiled and said: "Let's maintain the big family for the time being. The development of science and technology and the progress of the times must be done step by step. In fact, I am also very concerned about what you are doing in the northern grasslands. For the herdsmen on the grassland, you can establish a kind of family that is beneficial to the big family. The system of family ties makes it difficult for them to separate families for the time being. This is also beneficial to the stability of the grassland people. Their current thinking mode, if you really want to be in place in one step and divided into small families, I think it will cause huge chaos instead. .”

Lu Ming nodded silently: "I thought so too."

Michelson looked at him, and suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Speaking of which, I mentioned that the Grand Duke will fully support you, why are you so sensitive? I was just joking, who can really think that you and... how could it be, but Judging by your reaction just now, this..."

The two knew each other very well, except for a few polite words like His Highness, the conversation became lively, and it was the same as before, without so many taboos.

Lu Ming was stunned by Michelson's question. Indeed, he overreacted.

In fact, the rumors in the upper class are rumors, but there are not many people who really believe that Christine can take a fancy to him, and it's just as a lace chat.

In the eyes of outsiders, Her Highness the Princess is indeed the jewel of the empire, but she can't help herself when she is young, and presumably because neither the eldest prince nor the second prince can tolerate her, so she can only seek refuge in the impoverished and barbaric Northern Territory.

It was also a kind of expulsion from the eldest prince, forcing her to marry the Northern Territory, which would not have any influence on the power structure of the imperial capital.

And what kind of identity and pride is Christine?To choose a lover or get married, the nobles of the imperial capital can line up for several kilometers.

How could you choose a dictator in a barbaric place in the Northern Territory?
The rumors of the upper class came more from those gossiping women who belittled Christine with envy and jealousy.

Thinking about it, Lu Ming sighed, he still has to work hard, one day, he will announce to the world that Christine is his lover, it is not a kind of dwarfing for Christine, but it will make those gossips Everyone's envious eyes turned blue, and the self at that time was considered complete.

However, there seems to be only one such position.

Lu Ming stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking in the direction of the Southwest Imperial Capital.

In the night, the resplendent and dazzling Tulip Manor reflects the Crown Church of Xishan. It is the lighting ceremony presided over by the archbishop once a month. , a harsh burning sensation, to incinerate all ambitious moths that pounce on it.

Thousands of years ago, Queen Alice was crowned Emperor of the Empire here.

Lu Ming watched from afar and didn't move for a long time.
