Chapter 816: Own interests
Prince: (solemnly agreeing) I will live up to expectations and do my best to work hard for the future of the empire.
Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan recommended their candidate prince to the court, but this did not calm the fierce internal competition.Various factions still strive to pursue their own interests and threaten the political stability of the empire.
Zhao Aimin: (said worriedly) Liu Wan, although we have selected a suitable prince, the situation is still not optimistic.Divisions within the palace are becoming more apparent, which could lead to chaos.
Liu Wan: (Thinking carefully) We need more support, especially those who can influence the palace's decision-making.Can we get more allies?
Zhao Aimin: (nodding decisively) Yes, we need to consolidate the alliance and win more support.At the same time, we must also strengthen our cooperation with the prince to ensure that he can consolidate his position.
They began to actively seek new allies, including influential officials, dignitaries, military generals, and wise scholars.They sent emissaries to various places to try to persuade those who were positive about political stability and reform to join their alliance.
Zhao Aimin: (Meeting with an influential official) We need your support to ensure the future of the empire.
Officer: (speaks hesitantly) I understand your intention, but I need time to think about it.
Liu Wan: (Speaking encouragingly) Time is running out, and chaos within the palace may jeopardize our reform plans.Please think twice before deciding.
While the political storm continued to rage, a dispute over the price of salt erupted within the empire.Salt was an important resource for the empire, and its price had a profound impact on people's lives.Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan decided to intervene to stabilize salt prices and avoid social unrest.
Zhao Aimin: (Think deeply) The controversy over salt prices is intensifying, which may lead to more dissatisfaction.We must take steps to calm this storm.
Liu Wan: (agreeing) Lowering salt prices may satisfy the people, but we also need to ensure stable supply to avoid more problems.
They convened a number of economic experts and policymakers and began to study how to control the price of salt while ensuring an adequate supply of salt resources in the empire.
Zhao Aimin: (Discussing with experts) We need to find a balance that can meet the needs of the people without putting excessive pressure on the empire's finances.
Expert: (Making suggestions) Perhaps we can adopt a gradual approach and gradually adjust the salt price while strengthening supervision to prevent unfair profits.
Liu Wan: (thinking) This is a feasible plan. We also need to negotiate with merchants and suppliers to ensure that they also participate in this plan.
They began to negotiate with various stakeholders to seek consensus to ensure the smooth implementation of the salt price control plan.This was a complex task that required balancing various interests, but they firmly believed that only by stabilizing salt prices could they alleviate social dissatisfaction and maintain the political stability of the empire.
Zhao Aimin: (Announcement of plan to the people) We will adopt a gradual approach to control salt prices to ensure that they fluctuate within a reasonable range while ensuring supply.
People: (Applause to show support) This is a wise decision, thank you for your concern.
With the implementation of the salt price control plan, Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan found that they needed more resources to monitor the market and ensure the smooth implementation of the plan.However, the financial situation of the empire was not optimistic, and they had to find a way to solve this problem.
Zhao Aimin: (Said worriedly) The plan to control salt prices is necessary, but we also need to invest more resources to ensure its smooth implementation.
Liu Wan: (Thinking) We can consider making some adjustments to tax policies to obtain additional financial support.But this needs to be handled carefully to avoid placing too much burden on the people.
They began studying tax policy, trying to find a balance that would provide enough resources for programs without overburdening people.They held in-depth discussions with fiscal experts and tax officials to explore possible options.
Zhao Aimin: (Consultation with tax officials) We need a way to increase fiscal revenue without placing too much burden on the people.
Tax Official: (making a suggestion) Perhaps we could consider some additional taxes on wealthy businessmen and landowners to cover the fiscal deficit.
Liu Wan: (Thoughtful) This is a potential plan, but we must ensure the fairness of the tax policy to avoid causing more social dissatisfaction.
Ultimately, they decided to implement a rich tax that would impose additional taxes on those with great wealth.This will provide needed funding for the salt price control program while maintaining a relatively fair tax system.
Zhao Aimin: (Explaining policies to the people) Our goal is to ensure social fairness and political stability.This tax on the rich will help us preserve that goal.
People: (Most people expressed understanding and support) We understand the necessity of this decision, and as long as the policy is fair, we will support your work.
In order to maintain the stability and security of the empire, Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan believed that the training and preparation of the army must be strengthened.They decided to conduct a large-scale military exercise to improve the army's combat effectiveness and collaborative combat capabilities.
Zhao Aimin: (Seriously) Our military must remain strong to prevent external threats and internal instability.We need a large-scale military exercise to test their readiness.
Liu Wan: (Nods in agreement) Yes, the exercise will help improve the morale of the army and also allow commanders to better coordinate operations.
They ordered the start of preparations for the military exercise, which will include coordinated operations by various departments of the army, navy and air force, as well as special forces.They conducted detailed planning and planning with military leaders to ensure that the exercise would achieve the desired results.
Zhao Aimin: (Discussing with Army General) We need to ensure that every soldier is fully trained and prepared so that no matter what happens, they can handle it with ease.
Army General: (firmly agrees) We will ensure that every unit participates in the exercise in top condition.
Liu Wan: (Discussing with the naval commander) We also need to consider the navy's collaborative capabilities, especially in defending our ports and coastlines.
Navy Commander: (Speaking with confidence) We will work closely together to ensure that the Navy can perform its greatest role.
After the exercise began, the entire empire was filled with tension.The soldiers received rigorous training, and actual combat drills were conducted between various services to enhance their ability to coordinate operations.This exercise is not only to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but also to convey the image of a strong and united empire to the outside world.
Zhao Aimin: (Observing the exercise) Our military is making significant progress, which will help ensure the security and stability of the empire.
Liu Wan: (agreeing) At the same time, this also shows our determination and strength to the world.
As the military exercises progressed, Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan also began to realize that military preparation not only includes the improvement of skills, but also requires high morale and firm belief of the soldiers.Therefore, they decided to go to the exercise site in person to communicate with the soldiers and inspire their loyalty and confidence.
Zhao Aimin: (Speech to the soldiers) Comrades, you are the guardians of the empire and our pride.This exercise is not only to hone your skills, but also to convey a belief and loyalty to the empire.
Soldier: (Applause excitedly) General, we will go all out to defend the dignity of the empire!
Liu Wan: (Encouragement to the soldiers) In the army, we are not just colleagues, but also family members.Only by uniting as one can we overcome all difficulties.
Zhao Aimin and Liu Wan took the time to communicate with the soldiers, listen to their opinions and needs, and ensure that their voices were heard and respected.This close interaction not only boosted the soldiers' morale, but also strengthened their loyalty to the Empire.
Zhao Aimin: (talking to a soldier) We need to listen to your voices to ensure that you have adequate support and resources on the front line.
Soldier: (Speaking gratefully) General, we feel reassured by your concern.
Liu Wan: (talking to a female soldier) Regardless of your gender, you have the right to pursue your dreams and goals.Our military welcomes everyone with lofty ideals.
Female Soldier: (Nods firmly) Thank you General, I will try my best to play my role.
