After thinking about everything, Feng Willow put on his duke's clothes and went to the palace during the morning session. It was time for the nobles to get to know him, the Grand Duke's Imperial Master.

If you want to make this country run according to your own ideas, make the people rich and the country strong, and make it last forever, it is impossible not to get along with the nobles who rule the country.

In the past, Feng Willow thought that dealing with these nobles was a waste of time. But now, for his own future, he had to stand up.

Seeing that Von Willow came to attend the morning meeting, Kenlohag's heart seemed to fall. The unknown is the most terrifying, especially the destructive power of Grand Duke Von Willow is too strong, just like a giant beast. When getting along with a giant beast, even if you know that the other party will not hurt you, you will still be worried.

Now that Feng Willow is willing to come to attend the country's morning parliament, if there is anything going on, it should be laid out in the open, which is much better than making random guesses.

"Grand Duke Willow, how come you have time to attend the morning parliament? Come, come, let me introduce you to the Grand Duke von Willow who saved the day. The last time our Viking Empire was restored, Duke Willow made great contributions and was granted the title of Grand Duke and three counties by the former Majesty.

In this rebellion war, it was Grand Duke von Willow who took action and suppressed the traitor Korg. This is how our Viking Empire successfully suppressed the rebellion. Now he is the state teacher of our empire. "Kenlohag took von Willow and introduced him to all the nobles.

"Your Majesty, I came here this time because I have some ideas that I would like to share with you!" Feng Weiluo said as he handed over the reform plan he had written.

"Everyone, as we all know, the world is undergoing great changes, changing with each passing day. The Finn Empire is far ahead in the research of steam machinery. Their new steam ships have larger capacity, stronger defense, and faster speed.

There are also new steam cannons with an attack range of 30 kilometers, while our steam cannons are far inferior to theirs. This makes the Finn Empire's navy invincible on the sea and gives their caravans an advantage in ocean trade.

In just a few years, the current Finn Empire has become the overlord of the ocean, and all the benefits from the sea have been completely monopolized by them.

There is also the Snow Empire. Although their research on steam machinery is not as advanced as that of the Finn Empire, they are also studying the combination of steam technology and puppets.

The steam factories were used to mass produce powerful steam puppets, and a huge army of steam puppets was built, allowing them to build a large number of steam puppets at a faster speed.

These technologies have actually made the Snowland Empire the strongest among the four empires. Even if the Viking Empire and the Anerfa Empire unite, they may not be able to defeat the Snowland Empire's steam puppet army.

As for the Anerfa Empire, although their research on steam machinery is not as good as that of the Finn Empire and the Snow Empire, they also have their own steam machinery, such as steam machine guns. Although this kind of steam machinery is of little use against high-level sequencers.

But it is absolutely a sure kill for low-level Sequencers, and when used in a concentrated manner, the power is enough to make a Sequencer army die. I don't need to say more about this. The Empire's Wolf Cavalry suffered a lot from the steam machine guns, and you should know about it.

In addition, Light VI was also a wise ruler. He vigorously promoted the sequencers among the small and medium nobles, provided them with training resources, and trained a large number of knight sequencers. Now the strength of these sequencers from small nobles is not obviously low. When their strength is improved by one or two levels in the future, the strength of the Anerfa Empire will also be greatly improved. The national strength of the Anerfa Empire is also increasing day by day.

Since the last time the Viking Empire was destroyed by the Death Cult, it has been at war for years. The national strength has not improved at all. Instead, the people are getting increasingly poor because of the wars. There are fewer and fewer Sequencers, and they are all concentrated in aristocratic families.

Whether you admit it or not, among the four great empires, our Viking Empire is the weakest. If any evil god incident happens in the future, we will definitely be the first to attack, because our national strength is the weakest and the easiest to bully! "Feng Willow said passionately in the meeting hall.

Kenlohag looked at the reform plan presented by Feng Willow and listened to his passionate speech. He couldn't help but feel anxious.

Although Feng Willow's words were unpleasant to hear, they were indeed the truth. Only the truth hurts people the most. Their Viking Empire has indeed fallen from the strongest country on the continent to the weakest and most vulnerable among the four empires.

Of course, Kenlohag also wanted to be a good emperor and lead the Viking Empire back to its peak. But von Willow's plan was too radical, and none of its contents were easy to achieve.

The first is education reform. We need to popularize education and ensure that all children of school age receive education. The most important thing is that the empire needs to provide funding. The policy is definitely a good policy, but what about it? The Viking Empire has just ended the civil war and is now penniless, with serious losses in the empire's national strength.

At this time, the country has no money to popularize education. Without money, nothing can be done. No matter how good the medicine is, it can easily kill people if used at this time.

“Grand Duke von Willow’s idea is good, but there is really no way to implement it for now. We can only implement it when the empire becomes richer in the future. We can’t be impatient.

Land reform means removing the status of serfs, distributing fields to them for cultivation, and nationalizing all cultivated land. This is also unrealistic. If I dare to implement this policy, I am afraid that the whole world will immediately rebel. The nobles will never agree to such an outrageous policy. "Kenlohag must want to be a good emperor, but looking at these suggestions of Feng Willow, he can only shake his head. The subsequent road construction and prohibition of toll collection are equally unrealistic.

It was the nobles' right to collect taxes within their territories. Even if he became the emperor, he could not go against all the nobles. The only plausible suggestion was to build roads, but unfortunately this would also require a lot of money. But again, the country had no money!
"Grand Duke Willow, your proposals are indeed very good policies. Unfortunately, the country has just experienced a war and has no money. We can only implement your methods when the finances are more relaxed in the future." Although Kenlohag felt that Feng Willow knew nothing and was full of contempt for the bad ideas he came up with on the spur of the moment, this was not the time to say these things.

As soon as Feng Willow saw the look on Kenlohag's face, he knew that Kenlohag definitely didn't like his policy proposal. He immediately thought to himself, "It's over."

"Your Majesty, this is what I think. I also know that the country should not have much money now, so we should implement land reform first. After so many years of war, our Viking Empire should be in a state of less people and more land. We can first implement land reform in the non-noble territories within the empire.

If anyone disagrees, we will directly confiscate their property and should be able to obtain a batch of money and grain. Then we can distribute land to settle the people down. Then we will proceed to the next step. "Feng Weiluo said the solution he had been thinking about for a long time.

Kenlohag shook his head helplessly and said: "How can the empire forcibly confiscate the land of those people? Those who have no land are the people of the empire. Are those who have land not the people of the empire? Grand Duke, the policy you proposed is absolutely a chaotic policy." He saw at a glance that von Willow's policy would offend two types of people, one was the landlord, and the other was the newly emerging factory owner capitalists.

If everyone is given land and goes to farm, who will go to work in their factories? In this era, workers are no better than farmers, and are even far inferior to those farmers who have land.

Workers work 11 or 12 hours a day to barely make ends meet. In fact, the lives of farmers who own land are not that hard.

Feng Willow's proposal made the nobles who had met him for the first time today and had wanted to get close to him look at him coldly. Obviously, these policies made them very dissatisfied.

Seeing the looks of the nobles, Feng Willow had only two words in his mind at this moment: "Cold!" Obviously, no one wanted to see his policy of improving the country's strength.

The problem now is not the emperor's problem. He is still not thoughtful enough. Everyone from top to bottom is opposed. Even if he finds a way to replace the emperor, I am afraid that he will not be able to implement his policies.

"Forget it. When natural disasters and man-made calamities occur one after another, we will see if these guys can bear it. I'd better go back and start governing from my territory. When they can't bear it anymore and my territory is thriving, I will introduce my policy of strengthening the country to them." Feng Weiluo thought to himself.

Von Willow, who had originally planned to stay in the Viking capital for the next twenty years, returned to his territory that night.

"Willow, why did you come back so soon? Sia and I were about to look for you!" Taris said happily when he saw Feng Willow.

"I've thought about my policies. The nobles and the emperor won't believe them before they see the benefits. It would be easier to implement them in our own territory first. Once we have achieved results, we can offer suggestions to the emperor." Feng Willow said.

At this time, Sai Ya also came back. She had been dealing with the affairs of the territory in the past few days and looked very tired. But the moment she saw Feng Wei Luo, all her tiredness seemed to disappear instantly.

Feng Willow took out the policy that he had worked so hard to prepare for several days and handed it to Saiya, saying, "I've made up my mind. I won't go to the capital for the time being. I will implement these policies in our three counties first.

Abolish slavery, make land public, and give land to all civilians who are willing to farm. "Feng Willow said firmly.

When Sai Ya saw Feng Willow's policies, she also frowned. After all, she was also from a noble family and had always been in charge of internal affairs.

"Professor, if this policy is implemented, we will offend more than one or two people. In a short period of time, there will probably be chaos in our territory." Saiya said tactfully.

"Then let it be in chaos and completely destroy it, and then we will rebuild a brand new territory. In fact, isn't this the case with our territorial policy in the New World? I also distributed land to all slaves. Look at how much food we have accumulated over the years?" Feng Willow said confidently.

"Okay, since the current territory is not to your liking, let's destroy it completely." Saiya didn't even bother to persuade him, and directly stood on Feng Willow's side.

"Then we will implement the land policy starting from tomorrow. At the same time, we will use the wealth we have accumulated over the years to implement the education policy. We need to train our own people. If there are not enough teachers, we will go back to the territory of the Anerfa Empire to transfer people over." Feng Weiluo said majestically.

The entire three frontier counties were thrown into chaos as Feng Willow forcibly implemented land and education policies. The landlord class was naturally unwilling to see their family business, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, fall into ruin.

On the one hand, he desperately wanted to resist, and on the other hand, he wanted his family to escape from Feng Weiluo's three counties. If this place doesn't want me, I will find another place that will want me.

Soon, vigorous reforms were implemented in the three counties, and the landlords were quickly defeated. After all, this world was a world of aristocrats. Only aristocrats possessed extraordinary powers, and the landlords were not qualified to control power.

Land reform was quickly implemented in the three border counties, freeing slaves and distributing land. Those who received land all had smiles on their faces.

Three years of free education was also implemented in the three counties. There were not enough teachers, so Feng Willow simply dispatched missionaries from the Friendship Temple to be teachers. They taught classes while preaching.

Originally, there were more than a dozen religious sects in the three counties, but after Feng Weiluo introduced free education, all the children quickly became believers of the God of Friendship, and they were devout believers. They started learning from a young age, and their faith was firm.

Seeing that the reforms were showing initial results and that Feng Willow still had a large amount of grain in his hands, he began to refine the Fire Crow Kettle.

There are also differences between magic weapons. Although the Dragon Nail and the Coiled Dragon Wooden Staff can be called magic weapons, they are limited by their materials and cannot control the rules, so they can only be regarded as inferior magic weapons.

If you want to upgrade it to a top-grade magic weapon, you must sacrifice tens of millions of people, and if you sacrifice too many people, it will become an evil magic weapon. But the Fire Crow Pot is different, it is a top-grade magic weapon made with the destiny of the country.

As Von Willow began to draw on the country's fortune to refine the Fire Crow Pot, the Viking Empire began to suffer from many disasters. (End of this chapter)
