Even so, Merlin thought for a while and said, "If Wu is willing to establish this organization with your country, I don't know who should be respected? Wu as the leader? Will your king agree? If your country is respected... I'm afraid there will be a conflict."

After hearing what Merlin said, Utora also started to think.

Just listen to Longwu Kingdom? That's definitely not possible.

Although the two countries are far apart, it is hard to say about things like interests. After thinking for a while, Utola felt that it was even more necessary to establish this organization.

If such an organization existed, even if there was a conflict between the Frankish Empire and the Longwu Empire, it would be possible to transfer the conflict between the Frankish Empire and the Longwu Empire to other countries in the world.

For example, if you randomly choose a place, the Franks and the Wu Kingdom would not take action themselves, but would each support one side and let their two younger brothers fight, in order to decide the distribution of interests between the Franks and the Wu Kingdom.

In this way, the Franks and the Wu Kingdom could join hands and treat the whole world as leeks.

If there is no such organization... once there is any conflict between Frank and Wu State, it will inevitably end up with both sides fighting each other, and if things go wrong, the whole world may be implicated.

The thought of this bloody scene made Utola feel terrible. It was not gentlemanly at all.

After careful consideration, Utola slapped his thigh and said, "How about we bring in the Roman Empire and the Sassanid Empire?"

"This way we don't have to worry about who is the boss. We can use voting to decide on a matter. Of course, if there are other countries that you are more optimistic about, you can also bring them in. This way, it will be a five-vote system. What do you think?"

"We can talk about the remaining country later. I still need to report this matter to Her Majesty the Queen. Only with her agreement can this matter have a real chance of success." Merlin did not make a decision immediately, but gave the decision-making power to Leah.

Utora nodded and said:

"Okay, Lord Merlin, please explain the interests involved to Her Majesty the Queen. I believe that as long as you explain the relationship clearly, Her Majesty the Queen will agree."

To be honest, the plan currently proposed by Utola is indeed more beneficial to the Wu Kingdom.

The reason for raising this point is that Utola is considering it based on the principle of preferring to suffer a little loss in order to bring the Wu Kingdom into the alliance camp.

Can the Franks defeat the Wu Kingdom?

If you can't win, you will be beaten to your knees and call me daddy.

In this case, you have to find a way to get along with the big brother first, and then drag the big brother to fight other easy-to-bully people, so as to strengthen yourself little by little.

At the very least, calling him "big brother" is a generation higher than calling him "dad", right?

Moreover, once this organization is established, it will be difficult for the Roman Empire to take action against them in the future, and the Franks can also use it to rapidly strengthen themselves.

After listening to Merlin's report, Leah was also a little stunned. This Frankish Empire is quite something. Now it wants to create the Five Permanent Members.

This Frank is the France of later generations, one of the five greatest gangsters of later generations.

However, if Frank follows this path, there will be no United States, Tsarist Russia or Britain among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.

After thinking about it, Liya decided that this organization would be very beneficial to Wu State. According to the benefits given by Frank, she would have the final say in the Far East in the future, and no one else would interfere even a little bit.

Although Wu State is now stronger than Western European countries, it does not mean that they will not catch up in the future. Just like modern China, which has 200 years less development, it has not caught up yet.

So it’s hard for Leah to say how things will develop in the future. In short, the current construction of this organization will only bring benefits and no harm to the Wu Kingdom.

"Then let's add Britain." Leah said after thinking for a while.

"Britain?" Merlin was stunned, as if he didn't expect Leah to suddenly talk about Britain.

Isn't Britain still ununited? Who is in charge there?

"Yes, it's Britain. Our country's fleet is almost ready, right? I plan to retake Britain myself when the time comes. Long Luxin is almost an adult now, so it's a good time to let her rule Britain." Leah smiled.

As for Wu State, if Long Luxin doesn't want the famous saying "There is no 60-year-old prince in the world", it would be better for her to go to Britain.

Even if Leah is willing to abdicate, Morgan is still there. Long Luxin wants to be the emperor of the Wu Kingdom, but she may not be able to outlast Morgan, unless Morgan is willing to give up power to her. So it is better for her to go to Britain and be a king.

As for her other daughters, Leah also planned to let them take office in places like Japan, Kangaroo Country, America, etc. in the future to expand the territory and establish their own country.

If his daughter goes to these places, even if problems really occur in these places for some reason, they will be forever branded with the mark of the Wu State.

"Isn't that cheating? Will the people of the Roman Empire admit it?" Merlin smiled bitterly.

"How can there be cheating? Just change the rules. It doesn't depend on the number of votes, but on five votes in favor. If there is even one vote against it, then there is no chance of success." Leah smiled.

She thought of a particularly funny thing about the five major gangsters, that is, India tried several times to apply to join the five permanent members and become the sixth permanent member, but each time it was a case of four votes in favor and one abstention.

Every country has this abstention vote.

The result is that India has applied for N years but has not yet become the sixth permanent member.

Chapter 178: Long Luxin: I am no longer favored?

"That's it. Wu, Frank, Rome, Sassanid Persia, plus Britain, a total of five countries. If there is anything, these five countries will have the final say from now on."

After all, this is the United Nations. Wouldn't it be incomplete without the five good men?

But Britain was not unified at the moment, and was still in chaos. Without Leah's intervention, the land suffered greatly, and King Vortigern died of old age a few years ago.

The mystery of this land gradually faded away without anyone to maintain it, and it has become the same as other places.

Although Britain is not unified, it does not prevent Leah from occupying a position for it first. After a while, when she unifies Britain, won't that be it?

Anyway, he could just bring in any country he wanted, even if it was his daughter's country in the future. I'm sure these people wouldn't object, since they had adopted the one-vote-abstention rule.

There is no such thing as canvassing for votes. Even if you canvass the votes of the other three, it will not work if I veto it.

But will Leah really follow this rule? Only God knows.

Speaking of the United Nations, Leah thought of another way to make money.

If they played well, they could at least earn tens of millions of taels of silver for their national treasury, or even more.

After thinking about it, Liya simply summoned all the ministers in the court of Wu State, first talked about Utola's proposal, and then talked about what she thought: "Now there is an opportunity to make money, it depends on whether we can grasp it."

When they heard about the opportunity to make money, the people in the Ministry of Revenue immediately pricked up their ears.

It has to make money. Every year, Wu State spends money on building bridges and roads, military expenses, and researching firearms. The treasury of Wu State is completely emptied. I don’t know how empty it is. I’m afraid even the rats have starved to death!

Thinking of the tragic situation where even rats were starving to death in the treasury, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue could not wait to ask: "I wonder what method Your Majesty is talking about? How much can we earn?"

Liya calculated secretly and said, "It shouldn't be a problem to get a few million taels. If the situation is ideal, it's not impossible to get tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of taels."

"Sigh~"

After hearing the figure of tens of millions of taels, a group of people couldn't help but gasp.

Hundreds of millions?

Hundreds of millions, that's almost equal to the annual income of the Wu Kingdom's treasury!

Morgan thought about the Wuchang matter that Liya mentioned, and asked tentatively: "Sister, do you mean to provoke conflicts between countries and sell a batch of muskets and artillery?"

"About that." Leah replied.

Merlin nodded and agreed, "Utora's idea is unlikely to be implemented in the short term, at least not that easy."

"But we can spread the word first and set a time limit, such as ten years, and ask each country to demarcate its own borders to avoid conflicts over borders in the future."

"For example, the Franks, would they be content with just the small territory of the Franks? Another example is Rome, they would not be content with their territory being so small, so they will definitely find ways to expand in the next few years."

"They want to expand, and so do other countries. The demand for muskets and artillery is bound to increase greatly, and it is normal to make a few million or even tens of millions of taels."

Since Leah has already planned to give Britain a place, the matter of attacking Britain must be put on the agenda. However, Leah does not intend to let Britain compete with them for Europe and Africa. She has a better option.

After all, the world is not just Asia, Europe and Africa.

Since their Wu Kingdom wants the Far East, then the Middle East, Europe and Africa are naturally the choices for their remaining countries.

As for the remaining continents, these countries are still unknown, and Liya doesn't plan to tell you. When the number of people in her Wu country increases, she will occupy all these places!

After thinking for a while, Liya looked at Long Luxin and said, "Xin'er, your mother and I have decided that Britain will be your territory from now on. How Britain will be governed in the future will depend on the knowledge you have learned."

"Eh???" Hearing what Liya said, Long Luxin was stunned

My Longwu Kingdom, what happened to my huge Longwu Kingdom? Am I not my father's daughter? Will I inherit this country in the future? Why was I suddenly assigned to a barbaric land???

And it’s a barbaric island that has not been conquered!

At this moment, Long Luxin's expression was confused. Was she suddenly abandoned by her father?

Looking at the girl's expression, Leah knew that if she didn't explain it well, she would probably feel uncomfortable for several days. However, there were some things that could not be known to other people, so she should talk to her in the evening.

After thinking for a while, Liya said, "As the saying goes, even a little bit of money is still meat. We can certainly make a lot of money by stirring them up to fight each other, but there is also a small amount of money that we can't just throw away for nothing."

"If handled properly, this money may not be a small amount. Not only can it help to establish the image of our Wu Kingdom, but it can also bring new business opportunities to our Wu Kingdom merchants."

After hearing what Liya said, all the ministers present were a little confused. The fact that this piece of meat was treated as a mosquito meat by Liya, the Emperor of Wu, meant that this piece of meat was definitely not small, and the market behind it could even be as big as a whale.

So, apart from muskets and cannons, what else could bring such huge profits? Not to mention establishing the image of the Wu State and finding new business opportunities for the merchants of the Wu State.

When everyone was confused, Liya turned her gaze to Merlin and said, "Teacher, go back and discuss with the people of those countries and tell them that I plan to invite their rulers to visit Wu Country."

Hearing what Liya said, the ministers were stunned. Inviting a group of barbarian kings to visit? Forget about making money. They would be lucky if they didn't lose money!

Liya ignored the expressions of her subordinates and continued, "Also, remember to tell them that I feel that many countries in the world are constantly at war and the people of the world have a hard time making a living. So I want to invite many neighboring countries to send some people to come to my Wu country to participate in the competition. I will not hesitate to reward anyone who wins the championship with a gold medal to show my idea of ​​using competition to replace war."

The expressions on everyone's faces were even more interesting. Inviting a group of kings to visit was already doomed to lose money, and Your Majesty was going to invite people from so many countries to participate?

If they really responded to your call and came to participate in the competition, wouldn't you have to take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation? They still make a shitload of money!

Also, the champion can get a gold medal? Can't he get a bronze medal?

What on earth is your majesty thinking about?

Chapter 179 Yes, it’s the Olympics!

Of course, these people didn't know what Leah was going to do. That's right, what Leah was going to do was the modern Olympic Games. This thing could make a lot of money, and it could also let the neighboring countries feel the power of the Wu State.

This is a good opportunity to become famous. Once these countries come to Wu State to participate in the Olympics, they will definitely continue to publicize Wu State's affairs to the surrounding areas. By then, the strength of Wu State will leave a deep impression in the hearts of these small countries, and they will know that there is an extremely powerful country in the Far East.

After seeing the strength of Wu State, they will try to make themselves as strong as Wu State, and then continue to study everything about Wu State in depth. By the time they have studied everything, they have already been invaded by Wu State's culture. This is Liya's real purpose!

This is just like the countries in Europe. Because they are so powerful, English has become a language that every country must learn. This is what Leah wants to do. She wants to make Chinese the mainstream language of the world!

Just as the ministers were secretly complaining in their hearts, Liya continued, "As for the competition items, you can discuss them slowly. Anyway, do whatever you can. Allow those barbarians to bring their nobles and people to watch the games. Remember to charge admission tickets."

"Also, we can hold the competition separately. For example, we can hold some projects in Nanjing, some in Luoyang, and some in Chang'an. We not only want to directly promote local infrastructure projects through this event, but also use this event to make those barbarians spend more money in Wu State."

"Also, remember to ask that guy Utola to open the market."

"For example, in Cuju, if everyone bets on our Wu team to win, then let our Wu team lose the game. If everyone bets on Frank's team to win, then let Frank lose the game."

"Of course, we still have to be careful with this kind of gameplay. We can't make it too obvious, otherwise no one will play it in the future."

After all, this is a world of high-level martial arts. Football might be turned into Kung Fu football, which would surely be very exciting to watch.

After thinking for a while, Leah said, "Let's hold this competition in the name of world peace, and then hold it every four years."

"Also, in this competition, our Wu Kingdom will take 70%, and the remaining 30% will be taken by the Franks. Otherwise, the Franks will be much weaker than Rome, which is not a good thing for world peace."

Once every four years is a very reasonable schedule, because the construction of venues and related infrastructure requires time, and the growth of leeks also requires time.

When Wu State has hosted the event for more than a dozen times, we will open it to the public for application.

Based on Leah's thoughts, Merlin sent invitations to the small countries whose embassies were stationed in Wu State, and then told them about this matter.

When the envoys were confused, Merlin said, "Don't worry, the food and lodging of the contestants from your country will be covered by Wu State. The principles of our competition are fairness, equity, and openness. Everyone can buy tickets to watch the game."

"That's what Her Majesty means. Instead of fighting endlessly, you might as well compete on the field and use the spirit of sports competition to replace war. Especially in ten years, the League of Nations will be established, and countries will not be allowed to start wars at will."

At this point, Merlin picked up the teacup and said, "Those who are willing to give face to my Emperor Wu can stay and continue to discuss the events and rules. Those who are not willing to give face to my Emperor Wu can leave now."

No one left.

Before that organization was established, everyone had to rely on Wu's guns and artillery to grab territory. Who dared not give face to the emperor of Wu at this time?

Is it possible to not rely on Wuguo's muskets and artillery?

Okay, that’s great. Just don’t cry when you get beaten up later.

Seeing that many envoys had not left, Merlin put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Since everyone agrees with this competition, let's arrange our own personnel and discuss the items and rules of the competition."

That's the advantage of having a big fist.

Wu State has the bigger fist, so Wu State has the final say. Even if others are dissatisfied, they can only hide their grievances in their hearts.

What else can we do?

Unite to fight against Wu State?

Their weapons and equipment were inferior to those of the Wu State, and there were constant conflicts among the Western European countries, including mortal enemies like Rome and Persia who wished each other death.

Can we still expect these countries to unite and form a cross-sea expeditionary force to come all the way from Europe to Longwu Country to cause trouble?

Instead of fighting a war that is likely to be lost, it is better to take this opportunity to establish good relations with the Longwu Empire and gain more benefits from other countries.
