Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha
Page 117
"Eh...even if you say that, the content of the speech can be translated, but the tone of voice cannot be translated, right?"
As she spoke, Kagome smiled unconsciously:
"In this fantastical world, I suddenly heard this Kansai accent. I have to say, it was quite nostalgic."
"Ms. Luluya, are you also a reincarnated person?"
"What does reincarnation mean?" Luluya observed the expressions and positions of several people calmly, thinking something in her mind.
I originally thought that Princess Elisa should be the first queen, but now it seems that this girl is it.
So, he's not obsessed with wives, he just likes beautiful ones?
"It seems not."
Kagome did not explain, but turned to look at Yemen and asked curiously:
"What are you going to do with this princess sent by the principality?"
Although her tone was very calm, Ye Men inexplicably felt that she was a little jealous.
"According to the information we obtained from the investigation, Princess Luluya has outstanding financial management skills and can be considered a genius in business. It just so happens that because of those magical products, envoys and merchants from various countries have appeared one after another in the past few days, so it is a good opportunity for her to be in charge of this matter."
As he spoke, Ye Men tapped the watch-shaped phone in his hand and dialed Bai Zhi's number.
"Shiraori, come to the palace for a moment."
"What's the matter? I'm very busy now, why don't you come and help me with some official business? You are the king, okay?"
"I found a business genius to help you..."
Before Ye Men could finish his words, a portal opened next to him and Bai Zhi ran out in a hurry.
"Where are people?"
Noticing Yemen's gaze, Shiraori quickly ran towards Luluya.
"Is that you? Follow me."
"Uh…"
Luluya was stunned as she was suddenly sent here by her father. She had already prepared herself for a palace fight and imagined many possible futures in which the maid would take the position or be bullied to death.
But I didn't expect that I would be assigned to be in charge of business management?
"Um...are you in a hurry?"
"Of course, there are too many problems to deal with. Although we have recruited a lot of talents from the Talent Recruitment Hall, the territory is expanding too fast and the shortage of management personnel is too large. These are far from enough."
Knowing that she was actually complaining to him, Ye Men could only say that he was helpless.
The lower-class people in this world simply have no money to receive education. Whether it is an academy or private tutoring, only nobles and businessmen with a certain amount of financial resources can afford it.
Due to insufficient productivity, no country can implement free education for all.
Although the Kingdom of Elfriden has begun to popularize education at its own expense, it will take at least five or six years to reap the rewards.
Prior to this, the kingdom's nobles rebelled and he slaughtered a large number of elites.
Not to mention the monsters in the Jura Forest and the ordinary elves in the Southern Elf Kingdom. The former lacks management talents, and the latter also has almost all its management team slaughtered.
The territory under Milim's rule had always been managed in a rough manner. If they wanted to adopt the refined management model of a kingdom, they would also need to send people there.
Seeing Bai Zhi pulling Luluya away in a hurry, Alyssa looked apologetic, leaned close to Ye Men's ear, and whispered:
"Honey, should I go and help as well?"
"Do you have the management and calculation skills of Shiraori? Are you sure you won't cause any trouble?"
"That's true. I would only cause trouble for everyone in the past. But everyone is busy, but we are traveling and enjoying the scenery. I always feel a little guilty."
盯…
Kagome stared at the two of them unconsciously, even though she had already tacitly accepted their husband-and-wife relationship in her heart. After all, Princess Alisa considered herself only the sixth lady and did not deliberately occupy him.
But every time I heard her call me husband, I always felt a little uncomfortable.
This is the disadvantage of being too young. There are many things you can’t do and you can only keep waiting. At least you have to wait until the legal age for marriage, which is 16.
Yuyuko and Seshomaru's mother also stood on his side, looking as if they were letting it go.
Kikyo and Yuura, on the other hand, are both good-tempered and don't fight or compete with each other, so Kagome herself can't show it too much, otherwise she will always look petty and jealous.
Seeing her chest pressed against Yemen's arm, so that it was somewhat deformed, Kagome sighed helplessly and thought to herself:
"Is it because it's so big? Eh..."
Greatness means justice. Facing such vicious enemies, Kagome is powerless to fight back.
"You don't have any other work today?"
"That's all. I have finished all the things that I need to do. Leave the rest to Baizhi." Ye Men said with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid that she will give up?"
"No, she's an angel like us, how could she get tired so easily? The reason she complained was actually because we didn't bring her with us when we went out to play."
Chapter 145 Perhaps, the Queen Mother is Right
As he was speaking, the smart watch on Ye Men's wrist suddenly rang.
Then, a light screen popped up automatically, with the same [Answer or hang up] button on it, just like the answering interface on a mobile phone.
After pressing the answer button, Lisia's face appeared on the screen, and a slightly hesitant voice followed.
“Your Majesty, the rebels of the Kingdom of Melomag want to buy guns from our country.
Ever since the guns and cannons were produced, our country has kept them secret and has not leaked any of them to the outside world, but they swear that our country must have them.
Moreover, the conditions they offered were also very high. In addition to a large amount of magic stone mineral resources, they allowed our country to station troops, establish an embassy, exempt from tariffs, one-tenth of the annual fixed tax, and allow our country to send people to check the accounts.
It can almost be said that they are asking our country for vassalage. I really can't make the decision. Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
As she spoke, Lisia felt quite melancholy.
Ever since my mother remarried, my position has become very delicate.
But the queen mother was not forced, and as her daughter, she had no right to comment.
Moreover, since the other party became king, the kingdom has changed extremely rapidly and has become the overlord of the north in a short period of time.
She had even less to say about this.
As for leaving this embarrassing place, she had never thought of leaving. After all, this was the country where she had lived since childhood and had always loved it.
Although he tried his best to avoid having anything to do with the new king, he was appointed to the important position of head of armaments and had to deal with him frequently.
In the past, this would have been just a somewhat useless position, but now, the kingdom is changing with each passing day, the armaments are changing rapidly, and the need to deal with the new king is also increasing.
Therefore, no matter how uncomfortable you feel, you can only suppress your emotions and pretend nothing has happened.
No matter the gossip, jokes or strange looks from people around me, I just pretend not to see them all.
"Where did the rebels from the Kingdom of Melomag come from?" Ye Men asked in surprise.
"It's a long story, and it's not easy to explain over the phone. You can search for news about the Kingdom of Melomag online. The key words are Melomag, brave, and peasant army."
? ?
"In that case, I'll hang up first. I'll get back to you after I understand the situation."
"Okay... please hurry up, the negotiations are ongoing."
"no problem."
After hanging up the call, Ye Men immediately entered the network interface and began searching for the terms that Lixia mentioned.
Soon, many entries with extremely high click rates popped up.
After clicking on several entries and quickly browsing through them, Ye Men roughly understood the current situation of the Kingdom of Melomag.
On the day when he traveled to this world, the kingdoms of Melomag and Elfriden summoned heroes at the same time, and because they chose exactly the same time, a conflict occurred.
The Shield Hero Naofumi Iwatani was summoned by the Kingdom of Elfriden, and then the Shield Hero escaped, rebellions broke out, the king died, and the queen got married.
And the Kingdom of Melomag summoned Masayoshi Soma Kazuya, and a lot of things happened as well.
Since Soma Ichiya did not carry his own weapons like the Four Holy Warriors, and was weak and not good at fighting, he was soon framed by the princess, and his reputation was ruined, leaving him with nothing.
But unlike the Shield Hero, Soma Kazuya did not follow the traditional route of buying slaves and killing monsters to level up.
After all, this world did not have a mechanism for leveling up by killing monsters, and he did not have the equipment that the Four Holy Warriors had that could devour monsters and evolve infinitely.
Unable to become stronger quickly, he took the route of wandering around the slums, constantly giving speeches, establishing the Taiping Sect, stirring up peasant uprisings, and calling himself General Tiangong.
Among the videos online, there are many videos of Kazuya Soma’s speeches, the earliest of which was released two days ago.
Just click on any video and you will see Kazuya Soma’s very inspiring speech.
Are there any kings, princes, generals or ministers of different races? The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, the nobles and the humbles should be equal, the land should be distributed equally, and taxes should be exempted. All people should cultivate the land and eat the food together...
Looking at the romance that is unique to the Chinese people, which he used as a weapon to the fullest extent, Ye Men was speechless for a moment.
As expected of Zheng Yong, he has read so many books. He is completely different from the Shield Hero who only knows how to fight and kill.
If it were me, traveling here with nothing, I might not be able to do better.
However, the difficulty of peasant uprisings since ancient times has never been in slogans and programs, but in whether they can stick to their original intentions after initial success.
When a dragon slayer becomes a dragon, he can only serve as a pioneer for the king.
Thinking of this, Ye Men dialed Lisia's number again.
"Lishia, I already know the inside story of the Melomag Kingdom rebels. However, I think your hesitation is not just whether to sell them guns and cannons, but more importantly, whether the rebels' action program is correct, right?"
Lisia remained silent for a long time, then nodded slightly:
"That's right. Ever since I watched those videos, I've been wondering whether aristocrats are necessary. If everyone is equal, why are there differences in status and wealth? If people are not equal, where do these differences come from?"
I knew it.
Ye Men smiled helplessly. These speeches were indeed very inflammatory.
Even an adult would hesitate for a long time, let alone an underage girl like her.
"In theory, everything he said is correct, but it's just theory."
"Things in this world are easier said than done. It has always been like this."
"Absolute fairness is actually the greatest injustice, and relative fairness is what we are doing right now, isn't it?"
"I can say thousands of similar beautiful words. For example, I have a dream. I dream that one day, this country will truly stand up..."
"Everyone can say nice things, but how to do it is another question."
"I prefer to use my hands rather than my mouth."
“Instead of standing there and shouting slogans, it is better to put everything into action.”
"Punish the merchants who are rich and unkind, the nobles who abuse their power for personal gain, reward the positive and progressive common people, govern the country according to law, and the king who breaks the law should be punished the same as the common people."
“Over time, the differences in status, position, and wealth will be minimized.”
"As for what he said in his speech, that everyone is completely equal, farming together, eating together, wearing the same clothes, and sharing the land equally without paying taxes, how can the country's finances be maintained?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. If he really succeeds in replacing the Kingdom of Melomag and becomes the ruler of a country in the future, can he continue to not collect taxes? Not enjoy any privileges, and still eat from the same pot and live in the same room as everyone else?"
"It's not that I underestimate him. Even if he wants to continue to get along with others on an equal footing, his subordinates may not necessarily want to get along with their subordinates on an equal footing."
"In any country, there will be a ruler who governs the country and ordinary people who struggle to make ends meet. In fact, the two cannot be completely equal."
"These slogans have always been just a beautiful but unrealistic fantasy."
Lisia remained silent for a long time, then a faint smile appeared on her face.
"You are right, Your Majesty, I think too much."
"However, his slogans are indeed so infectious that even I was moved after reading them. Will the Chinese people be incited after reading them?"
"Well... at least I won't do that when I'm king." Ye Men chuckled.
“What about the next generation?”
