Ye Hua has been in charge of the cabinet for ten years. He has done a lot of things, not only those that can be seen when building bridges and paving roads, but also those at the ideological level. For example, every school and every classroom will have a big world map... The territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty is already very vast, even surpassing the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but on the map, it is still a small corner.

Five years ago, the King of Shang, Guo Xingge, organized a steam fleet across the Pacific Ocean, discovered Australia, America, and even found Antarctica, bringing back a group of cute penguins.

More and more knowledge is filling the market and changing everyone's ideas.

The world is a concept that has existed since ancient times, but it has never been as clear as this moment!

In addition to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Oceania was drought and the natives were sparse. America was the world of Indians. They were also very primitive. There were also Africa, and there were no decent civilizations... Looking at the whole world, there were only three major civilizations, among which the Great Zhou was the strongest, and then the Great Food Empire, and to the west, there was the Holy Roman Empire that had just been established. However, the Great Food Empire was divided into pieces and was not afraid of it. The European part was barbaric and backward, not worth mentioning.

Overall, the Great Zhou has an absolute advantage!

If you are prosperous, you will benefit the world; if you are poor, you will be safe.

Mr. Qi Tongwen, who is full of students all over the world, proposed to encompass the world. The Great Zhou has the responsibility to manage the whole world well. This is the mission given to us by God!

There are a large population, powerful force, developed economy, and rapidly progressing technology... If we cannot take the opportunity to push the Han civilization to the whole world, it is simply a crime! Mr. Qi's view is very convincing and soon caused a tide among scholars and even the entire society.

The world is so great that besides the Great Zhou and the Han people, who else can dominate the world?

We must master the entire world and bring the world from ignorance to civilization... A group of scholars and explorers set foot on foreign lands, bring new knowledge and return to priceless minerals.

Every discovery makes people excited, excited and stimulates everyone's heart.

The following calls became stronger and stronger, but in comparison, the court, especially the parliament, seemed very conservative, and even negative... There is nothing else, the world is too big!

All the lands are at least ten times that of the Great Zhou!

It would be fine if the area is large... These areas have different environments, different languages, different races, different beliefs, and even different levels of civilization.

Some places were equivalent to the level before the Shang and Zhou dynasties, with the princes separating and wars endlessly, some places were simply slavery, and there were many islands. They lived by collecting fishing and hunting, and were in the matriarchal clan stage... Take a simple currency for example, there are Dazhou, which mainly uses paper money, and both use gold and silver, some use gold and shells, and even stones!

How to deal with it if it is so big and so messy?

Who should I send to take care of it?

How much cost will it cost and how much profit will it be?

Can the court afford it?

...

A series of issues were debated endlessly... Finally, a consensus was gradually formed on parliament.

The management of these lands should focus on seeking economic benefits.

In short, it means making money through trade and treating these places as the source of raw materials and the dumping market for commodities!

"Under this requirement, I believe that the establishment of a special trading company should be authorized to monopolize the routes in various regions, be fully responsible for trade, and manage the local area."

Lu Duan, who has ten years of parliamentary qualifications, talked happily.

"A few years ago, I went to Tianzhu. My opinion is that Tianzhu is very chaotic. Since ancient times, there has been no real unification. If we force unification, it will only backfire and thankless. It is better to set up Tianzhu company to do business and make money, so that it is the safest for the Great Zhou. Other places can also be handled accordingly. What do you think?"

Lu Duan was confident, after all, he had already communicated, and even Gun-Duke Wei was inclined to him, so what else could he worry about!

As expected, Wei Renpu, who presided over the parliament, had long been white in his hair and aging. When Lu Duan spoke, he seemed to be asleep. After he finished speaking for a while, he raised his eyelids and slowly said, "Don't have any opinions? If not, I will submit it to Your Majesty and hand it over to the cabinet..."

Before Wei Renpu could finish his words, Kou Zhun, who was sitting in the last row, suddenly stood up!

He said loudly: "I have something to say!"

The parliament is a very interesting place, and the most important thing is to focus on seniority. Seniors and juniors are clearly distinguished. Lu Duan was the first representative. Over the past ten years, he has made countless speeches and many opinions have been adopted by the court. He is a well-deserved senior representative.

As for Kou Zhun, he is just a newly joined young boy, and he dares to refute Lu Duan's opinion, and he is simply ignorant of his life and death!

Kou Zhun ignored those contemptuous gazes, but instead calmed down and walked to the speech stage. Before he could speak, he tilted his ears first.

"Some words just now are really pedantic and ignorant women's opinions, I'll take it out first!" After saying that, he also blinked the earwax on his fingers, and the old Lu Duan's face turned black in an instant, and he glared at him.

Kou Zhuncai ignored him and said to himself: "All the people here, we shoulder the trust of the people, and discuss issues related to the future of the world in the solemn assembly room. Should we also take a long-term view and see how our ancestors did it!"

"When King Wu defeated Zhou and destroyed Shang, he was a great conferred princes in the world... At that time, except for the Central Plains, the rest of the four directions were all barbarians. When did the Emperor of Great Zhou say that as long as trade and trade, you can make money? Will the Emperor of Zhou be so small? Only those short-sighted and cowardly and incompetent people would be greedy for small profits. If the Emperor of Great Zhou really did this back then, there would be no Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period in the future, Qin, Han, Sui and Tang Dynasties! Nor would the Great Zhou today!"

Kou Zhun was fully fired as soon as he came up. As a representative of the new science department, Ye Xi was shocked. In his opinion, Lu Duan’s proposal was very good, economical and the most suitable choice at the moment. But he didn’t know that Kou Zhun was criticized for being worthless... Think about it carefully, Kou Zhun’s words may not make no sense!

"Today's Great Zhou is at a similar time as the Great Zhou at that time... The emperor and ministers of the Great Zhou were not afraid of difficulties. They enfeoffed the princes and distributed the barbarian lands of the four realms to nobles and heroes. After hundreds of years of cultivation and development, the original barbarian lands have all become the territory of the Great Zhou. Without the feudal of the Emperor of Zhou, there would be no unified Liuhe by the First Emperor!"

"I admit that in the beginning, there might be many difficulties and heavy prices... The key is what we can get!"

"Imagine that hundreds of years later, every piece of land lived with Han people. There is only one language in the world, that is Chinese! There is only one word, that is Chinese characters! There is only one civilization, that is Han civilization! Think about it, what kind of state is that?"

"At the beginning, Confucius could travel around the countries without a single official position and peddling the country's governance strategy. Now we have such an advantage, but we only want to make small profits. Wouldn't it make the ancestors laugh?

...

Kou Zhun's first appearance and his first opinion shocked the entire parliament... From the initial disdain to anger, to silence, when he spoke to the end, hundreds of people stood up, applauded together, and his voice was deafening!

Kou Zhun is still a little crazy, and the more someone supports him, the more excited he becomes.

Finally, he jumped onto the speech stage and shouted.

"I suggest that we should immediately follow the old rules of the Zhou Dynasty, send the governor to govern the world! Unify the world and make the world a world of Han people! Let the world surrender to the feet of the Great Zhou! All the world is the king's land, and all the land is the king's minister! Either surrender or die! There is no third choice!!!"

Kou Zhun shouted loudly at the top of his lungs and received a more enthusiastic response. Ye Xi, including him, also stood up and clapped his hands, but his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

How did my father see that Kou Zhun is a talented person?

This vision is really toxic!

Wei Renpu, who had been drowsy, opened his old eyes and looked at Kou Zhun in surprise.

What a great spirit!

After many years, since Ye Hua, Wei Renpu has never found a young man who can be looked down upon by him.

It’s not that the younger generation is not good, but that they lack a sense of motivation.

Including his son Wei Xianmei, he is very capable and good at doing things, but he always lacks something. Wei Renpu suddenly realized today that what he lacks is the courage to lead the times!

That’s right, it’s the great spirit that leads the times!

This thing was once Guo Weiyou, expelling the Hulu and restoring the Han family's mountains and rivers!

Chai Rong also has it, to wipe out the world and surpass the Han and Tang dynasties!

Of course Ye Hua has it, but he is more inclined to keep pushing and let everything come naturally... Now he said it through Kou Zhun's mouth!

This kid is definitely a tiger!

Ye Hua, Ye Hua, you really find a suitable successor!

Thinking of this, Wei Renpu took the initiative to stand up and signal everyone to be quiet.

The old prime minister coughed twice before slowly saying: "There are two opinions at the moment. One is to establish a trading company, focusing on economic interests. The other is to send a governor to strive to Chineseize the whole world... One is difficult and one is easy, one is small and one is big. How should we make a judgment? Let's vote!"

As he said that, Wei Renpu took the lead in raising his hand to express his support for Kou Zhun's proposal, followed closely by the military, workers, farmers, scholars, and some bureaucrats, who also raised their hands, and the number of supporters reached more than 1,500.

In contrast, less than 800 people supported Lu Duan's proposal.

With a huge difference of nearly twice, Kou Zhun ushered in a good start...Three days later, Ye Hua summoned the main generals in the army in the cabinet and gathered together.

Everyone showed a gratifying smile on their faces. Kou Zhun is a material! It’s interesting!

"The following is the election of the Governor General. In addition to Zhao Kuangyin continuing to serve as the Governor General of Tianzhu, there are six more places. Please recommend it!"
Chapter completed!
