======================
This is not the first time Ryan has seen Pals, he has seen him from afar before.

Maybe those ordinary people will have some doubts. Is it too childish for the whole country to simply rely on the date of birth to determine the crown prince? What if a fool is born, or what if a lunatic is born?Doesn't that mean everyone wants to hug and play together?In fact, this is all common people's misunderstanding of the royal family's way of selecting the crown prince. Even a fool or a lunatic who comes from the top education system in the empire can make this fool or lunatic have the ability to correctly handle government affairs.

The so-called elite education, to put it bluntly, is cramming teaching.

What happened on a certain day of a certain month in a certain year, what was the solution at that time, and what consequences were brought about.What is the correct solution and what are the consequences.

One by one, the real cases were recited continuously through cramming teaching, until these cases were completely engraved in the depths of the crown prince's mind, like lingering nightmares, which could be recalled anytime and anywhere.Even a fool can subconsciously make enough correct judgments when faced with the same situation.As for other matters, the prime minister of the empire will handle those small matters that will not affect the fate of the country well.

Conditioned reflex is the way of royal elite education.

Pals has been in such an educational environment since she was born, reciting and studying year after year, without considering whether she understands or accepts, and first figure out how to solve these problems that have arisen.As for the character and the concept of governance, they can only be bred after she has been unanimously approved by everyone.

This time may be very long, but it may also be extremely short.

When facing this familiar stranger again, Ren was very calm. It seemed that he didn't pay much attention to Pals' status and what she represented.

The golden aristocrats are all equal in essence, no one is more noble, and no one is lower.

Now Pars has become the leader of the royal family, and her status is equal to that of Rennes.

"I heard that you did a good job in Ortrenburg." Almost everyone who met Ren would use this sentence as an opening sentence.In addition to Rennes doing a good job, it is also a means of chatting.Everyone likes to listen to good words, and likes to be admired and praised for their proudest actions. Even gods cannot do without the hymns of the choir, let alone a mortal?

Ren maintained a polite smile, tucked his arms around his waist, and bowed slightly, "You praised me, I just do what I should do."

Pals's appearance is not the kind of beauty that makes people amazed at first glance, it can only be said to be above average, but she has an aura that other women will never have.The additional points brought by her identity and status made her only have 85 points of appearance, which jumped to [-] points.There is a pair of long and narrow eyes under the long eyebrows, which are naturally narrowed into a slit when smiling. These eyes are not big, but they are extremely energetic.She looked at Ren and nodded slightly, "I'm just telling the truth, the franchise, including my father, me, and others, are very interested. I would like to ask, if the royal family owns the franchise, is it appropriate?" Not suitable."

Unlike other politicians, but it is also very likely that it is a deliberate act. Pars did not go around in circles and hit the point directly at the dinner table.

The old emperor and the prime minister began to pay close attention to Rennes when he came up with this franchise. Funds for the imperial treasury basically come from taxes from all over the country, not including taxes from the entrusted territories.It can be said that the royal family, the largest noble family in the empire, is no richer than other nobles.Not only must a salary be paid for each member of the royal family, but also a large amount of money must be spent on some policies and constructions of the entire empire.

The lack of funds has always been a problem faced by the royal family, otherwise it would be impossible for a civil war to break out due to tax resistance.

He pondered for a moment and said: "The royal family can take the lead, but you should know that the profits here involve all interests. If you don't want to go to war with all the noble groups, I suggest you slow down and start with the most basic ones." start."

Pals put down the tableware, she had obviously lost interest in food, she asked again: "Please tell me carefully, to be honest, I just took the throne, and before that, I didn't know that the national treasury was so tight, the whole empire was like It's a mess, and it's hard for me to clean it up alone, and I need everyone's help." Her eyes lit up, "Especially you, Baron Wren, your actions have greatly eased your finances. I should How do I deal with this mess in my hands?"

The emperors of all dynasties did not have a good solution to financial problems. Excessive taxation could only lead to conflicts among multiple classes, which eventually led to the outbreak of war.And to open up new sources of income, the royal family has no good way. The royal family also has imperial merchants, but the effect is not very good.From the point of view of a family, the profits brought by the imperial business are enough for the royal family to live a good life, but from the point of view of a country, that amount of money is far from enough.

The competition in business is also very fierce, especially with the continuous advancement of centralization, the major aristocratic groups have developed a sense of crisis. Outside the imperial capital, the struggle between the imperial power and the aristocrats is almost everywhere.Squeezing the living space of the imperial merchants was just a trivial means. They increased the preferential treatment policy for the civilians under their rule and attracted more immigrants.Open up various business routes and compete with the royal family for prices.

After Pars came to power, the first thing to solve was money.She wants to sit firmly on the throne under her buttocks, first of all, she has to show her own interests to balance the conflicts arising from conflicts of interests.Otherwise, she can only be like a puppet, without even the capital to display her political ambitions.

Ren hesitated for a moment, and decided to get some dry goods out. As people say, the interests of the gold nobles are the same, at least until there is no bigger conflict, that is indeed the case.Of course, this does not prevent him from digging a small hole for the royal family.

"You can designate some goods exclusively for the royal family, such as certain luxury goods, certain special gemstones or other things. These things can only be enjoyed by the royal family. Only with the permission of the royal family, nobles and wealthy merchants can use them to a limited extent. .Through this method, the royal family has the monopoly power of certain commodities. You should understand that the biggest profit will always come from monopoly. As long as these commodities are monopolized, whether it is exported to other countries or authorized monopoly within the empire, Both can raise a lot of money for the treasury.”

The pit was dug to a very high standard. If you want to give a score, it will be a perfect score. Rennes scored a full score for his little digging skills.It seems that this plan is perfect, and the reasons and excuses are very sufficient. In order to reflect the dignity and extraordinaryness of the royal family, of course there are reasons to make some things exclusive to the royal family.And the steps will not be too big, and the interests of the nobles of the entire empire will be involved at once, and at the same time, there will be room for continued operations.But thinking about it the other way around, what will happen to those nobles and businessmen who rely on these things for profit and suddenly lose their biggest income?

The first is to hate the royal family's policies. After all, it is the royal family who have taken these profits.The second is to consider how to use this new policy to serve ourselves and profit from it.

There is an old saying in China, which is called cutting people's wealth, such as killing their parents. As long as Pars decides to use Ren's idea, it is doomed that the royal family will have conflicts with a small group of people.These contradictions do not usually appear, just like a calm lake without waves.But once it erupts, thunder and lightning are not enough to describe its eventuality.

Pars thought seriously about the suggestion given by Rennes.This is basically the same as the franchise, but the excuse is better, and it can better demonstrate the majesty and dignity of the royal family at all levels.She even extended more ideas from this, and can gather a group of forces loyal to the royal family through monopoly power, and these forces will be closely united around the group headed by her Queen Pars because of their interests, forming an interest Community, a brand new aristocratic group, to compete with other aristocratic groups.

As for the resulting disputes and conflicts, she doesn't take them seriously, she just needs to choose those products that won't create too much conflict.Besides, Ren, a person with little power, can play a monopoly business in Ortrenburg. Why does she have to worry about so many things as the emperor of an empire?Dissatisfied?Just fight, the iron fist of the Marshal of the Empire will break everything, if you have the guts, go to war!
It has to be said that a queen like Pals is closer to men in both heart and mind, and even better than some men.She weighed the pros and cons in an instant, and her opinion of Renn was constantly improving.

She nodded reservedly, "Your suggestion is very pertinent and has the possibility of practical operation. On behalf of myself, thank you for your support to the royal family."

"You're flattered, this is what I should do as a member of the empire."

Pals changed the subject and talked about private plundering, "Baron Ren, I also learned about plundering licenses. How do you restrict these licensed armed forces from expanding without limit? , So as to affect your rule? Once these forces surpass your power, they may no longer obey your command, but turn upside down and coerce you to serve them."

Ren smiled. The Queen Pars is very courageous and smart enough.She saw the benefits of privateering, but was also worried about it, which was normal.The gap between information and the times has prevented people in this world from having as broad a horizon as Ryan, and many things cannot be figured out.

Just like private plundering, in fact, it is not strength that restricts these plundering teams, but a kind of righteousness, a different kind of interest.Yes, once these armed forces become stronger, they may ignore Rennes, but conversely, if Rennes, the person who issued the plundering license, vetoes the righteousness of their existence and denies them as Ortrenburg, Contributions made to the empire, then in the final analysis they are a group of bandits, a group of robbers.

When they are recognized, they hold the righteousness, and people will cooperate with them.When they lose their righteousness, people will only deny them along with mainstream values.

The empire is so powerful, is it still afraid of a group of well-established robbers?

Don't be kidding, a provincial governor is enough to suppress these people, let alone an empire?

Furthermore, armed forces have plundered supplies and always need to cash them out.If they can't be cashed out, what's the point of holding on to things that they can't eat, drink, or consume?What is the difference between non-consumable materials and stones?
The one who always takes the initiative is the one who grants this power—Ren.

As long as the initiative is mastered, armed forces are just a plaything in the palm of your hand.
