Chapter 918: Deception, then deception!

When Qin Mo heard this, he was not happy, but felt a little scared.

Forget it as a county king, is it possible for a prince?

Even in the Tang Dynasty in the parallel world, it was only in the middle and late dynasty that many kings with different surnames were canonized for the purpose of checking and balancing.

Also, how old is Beinu?

That's almost half of the country.

Although the grassland is barren, in Qin Mo's hands, it can produce flowers.

Shidan and Jihe are too remote. Although the black soil is fertile, the winter there is too long, and the lowest temperature is estimated to be minus 20°C.

The winter in the capital is the limit that Qin Mo can endure. He will definitely not be able to bear it if he goes there.

The average altitude of Nanfan is higher than that of the other world, so it is impossible to go there.

That damn place in Wozhou has typhoons, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions every now and then, so there is no sense of security at all.

Thinking of this, Qin Mo said: "Father, you believe in me too much. I am not a god. What if I fail!"

"I can't miss it, I know it in my heart. Although the state tax is still unable to make ends meet, and food production has also been reduced, the most difficult time has passed.

Overall, Daqian's financial revenue, military strength, and people's livelihood are all improving."

Li Shilong said: "I'm not forcing you, it's just that after being injured last time, my body and energy are not as good as before.

Therefore, I really hope that in my lifetime, I can create a large territory for future generations.

This vast territory is enough for the descendants of Daqian to enjoy for three to four hundred years.

Even if various problems arise at that time, I believe that future generations can solve these problems.

As you said, the larger the land, the slower conflicts will arise.

Because population growth is time-limited.

Moreover, Cheng Qian said that there is still a large amount of unowned land overseas, and boundary markers have been inserted there. It is my land.

Don't be afraid, thinking that by making you the prince, I want to kill you or attack your Qin clan.

Then you are looking down on me!"

Qin Mo scratched his head, "My son-in-law doesn't mean that!"

"You don't mean that. Others will think so. The world has changed. If you persist in the old ways, something will happen sooner or later.

The land of Daqian is too big and the people are too few. You said before that the Jiedushi and the Protectorate can only be used as temporary means. I have always remembered it.

If we just knock down the land, it is not difficult for Daqian now. What is difficult is how to hold on to this land and turn it into a paradise for our Daqian people to rest and live."

Li Shilong sighed, "I thought about it for a long time and searched through historical records, but I couldn't find a suitable system.

I am worried because if I don’t fight this battle, I will definitely leave that battle to my descendants.

Now I have to fight, which is a waste of time and money, and is difficult to digest.

If the tail is too big to fall off in the future, it will cost more.”

Qin Mo nodded, just like in the late Tang Dynasty, the abuse of Jiedu envoys led to the Anlu Mountain Rebellion.

Now, although the vassal system still exists, it has almost been reduced.

Let those hereditary and irreplaceable princes guard the country, and over time, local emperors will inevitably breed.

Borrowing the Ming Dynasty's guard system would definitely not work. It would just jump from one pit into another, deeper pit.

In the Song Dynasty, the military and peasants were separated, and the recruitment system did have certain merits.

"Jingyun, do you have any idea?" Li Shilong asked.

Qin Mo shook his head, "Father, how can I be so smart? Even if I have an idea, it was what my father told me before, and I discussed it with Lao Ba.

Moreover, this matter involves too much and involves not just one place, but also the future of Daqian, which still needs to be discussed by everyone."

Li Shilong sighed, Qin Mo was right, this matter cannot be settled overnight.

The birth of one system is often accompanied by the end of another system.

People in the old system have formed a chain of interests and will inevitably oppose it.

Generally, at this time, there are two ways, to clear the chain of interests, or to start a war to change the target.

The aristocratic families were the beneficiaries of the old system. When they became too big and became a disaster, it was inevitable that they would be eliminated.

"Then think carefully and give me an answer while I'm still here!" Li Shilong said.

"Father, can I make a suggestion?"

"explain!"

"When you become the Heavenly Khan, can I retire? In the true sense of the word, I won't go to court anymore.

I don’t want to be a king, it’s not interesting at all. I might as well teach in Qinzhuang, cultivate grain seeds, develop science and technology, and write novels on the side.

If you miss me, call me into the palace. I will go into the palace to cook two dishes for you and have two drinks with you.

If you are happy, I am happy too, and you will save me from running around every day!"

Qin Mo said: "I don't want to leave the capital either. This is my home. If I go to those places, I will definitely not be accustomed to it.

I can't take my wife and children with me and suffer the consequences, right?

Really, my son-in-law's wish is to retire young.

It’s too painful for me to go to work.”

Qin Mo doesn't care about merit or title at all now.

Retirement is the best option.

Even if he retires, who in this world would dare to look down upon him?

Still endlessly happy.

Li Shilong was speechless. He had never seen a young man as lazy as Qin Mo who didn't like power.

But think about it, Qin Mo has always been like this, if he can be lazy, he will never make progress.

"Father, you can't say that I am not motivated. In the past two years, I have made great contributions to the great cadres and shed blood. I, I am a meritorious official!"

Qin Mo raised his head and said, "Think about it, I work in such pain every day, unwillingly, and in a bad mood, I will definitely not be able to do things well.

If you play at home every day, you will be in a good mood, and if something happens, you will be able to think more comprehensively.

Besides, I teach children, cultivate fine seeds, and develop technology, all for the sake of Daqian's future.

It seems like I'm just having fun, but in fact, it's all for the sake of my great fortune."

Li Shilong nodded subconsciously, but immediately he reacted, "Don't fart, you can retire at a young age. Your father hasn't even retired yet. How dare you say this?"

"My father has a strong body. It is not a problem to live to seventy or eighty years. He can work for you for at least twenty or thirty years. As long as you have him.

As a son, I can’t bear to see him idle around the house with nothing to do!

Think about it, whether old age or old age is hotter, I was taught by my father. He must have many more methods than me.

So, it’s the same with or without me.

When my father retires in the future and I have had enough rest, I will be mature and consider issues more comprehensively. How great!"

Li Shilong looked at Qin Mo with complicated eyes. Although he knew that this guy was deceiving him, he somehow felt that it made sense.
