"Come on! Your Majesty, wash the child's clothes! " Qi Hongyi put his son into the bathtub and put the clothes he had just taken off the little fellow on the stool next to him. The water in the bathtub had been under the sun for several hours, and the temperature was not far from his body temperature. The shallow water was just enough to cover the little fellow's waist. With his mother's gentle hands supporting him, the little fellow showed his white teeth and tried to grab his mother's arm with a smile.
Vézé quickly washed the clothes that his son had taken off. His hands were busy, but his mouth was not idle either. Vézé laughed and said, "It seems that you want to go back to Jiangning. Is it better to wear fine clothes at night than to return home when you are rich? "
The couple was used to bickering. Qi Hongyi laughed and said, "You are the emperor, so of course you have to wear a crown. I don't want to be a monkey." While joking with her husband, Qi Hongyi scooped water into a porcelain bowl and gently washed his son's body. This was what she really cared about at the moment.
Clothes were washed every day, so they were washed very quickly. Vézé also answered slowly, "I'm going to design the city of Guangzhou and build it more or less before I leave. The construction of a city needs a model. I don't trust these people now. "
The child's skin was tender, so the bath time should not be too long. Qi Hongyi quickly fished his son out of the bathtub and put him on the big towel on the bed. The little fellow might feel itchy. He giggled and struggled to resist the towel in his mother's hand. But his mother, who had the absolute advantage in physical strength and speed, quickly dried the little fellow, put some talcum powder on him and put on a set of clean clothes. At this time, Vézé had washed the clothes that the child had taken off and hung them up.
The big bed in Vézé's house was surrounded by a railing. The little fellow was put inside the railing. The couple sat next to their son and watched him crawl back and forth without a care in the world, making completely incomprehensible sounds. Qi Hongyi sighed contentedly, "Taking care of the child every day is like fighting a war. Why, Vézé, don't you like to have someone to serve you? "
After hearing his wife's question, Vézé answered very seriously, "I've met some extraordinary people. The most extraordinary thing about them is that they have their own lives from birth to death. Even when they were in their seventies or eighties, they could still rely on themselves. To them, life was about doing what they had to do every day. They never had to rely on others to prove their own lives. Power and status are not important. These people really have a clear conscience. "
Qi Hongyi was amused by Vézé's hopeful tone. She laughed and said, "Haha! I say, Your Majesty, you don't want our son to be like you, do you? "
Vézé nodded. "Of course I hope he can be like me. I even hope he can surpass me."
Qi Hongyi grabbed Vézé's arm, and the smile on her face gradually faded. "Vézé, as the founding emperor, how can you expect your descendants to surpass you?"
Vézé heard his wife's words and felt pity for the parents in the world. He smiled helplessly and said to his wife, "If they want to be emperors, they have to surpass me. If their descendants can't surpass me, they have to die. Manchu Qing is an example. Manchu Qing won the world purely because there were no heroes in time. The current emperor of Manchu Qing may not be too far behind the founding emperors, but the times have changed. Look at our Liberation Army's industry, commerce, and land reform. After these new developments, Manchu Qing was completely unable to resist. This era is developing too fast, so we have to follow the times. Whoever can keep up with the times, whoever can lead the times, will be the winner. "
This problem was too realistic and too heavy. Qi Hongyi saw that Vézé had no intention of "planning for his descendants" at all, and she was not happy. Sitting up straight, Qi Hongyi said, "Vézé, the world is finally at peace. Why do you want to make it chaotic? If you become emperor and crown prince, the order will be settled. At that time, you can do whatever you want to do. "
At the mention of becoming emperor, Vézé felt a headache coming on. He waved his hand at his wife. "Kiss me! I think you can see that I have no interest in the title of emperor. Why? Because too many bastards have tarnished this title. So many heroes have been crowned with the title of emperor, not because the title makes them stronger and more glorious, but because these heroes have made the title more important. In fact, I now think that there is only one true emperor, the first emperor. The others have just made various changes to the social system created by the first emperor's revolution. But now that I, Vézé, have come out, I can also promote the revolution. For at least a few hundred years, no one can compare with us in history. "
Qi Hongyi listened to Vézé's boasting. She was silent at first, and then she sneered. "Haha! Vézé, are you going to suck up the fate of your descendants? People say that the ancestors plant trees, the descendants enjoy the shade, and the future generations benefit from this. This is a success that is recognized by everyone. Yes, the first emperor abolished feudal enfeoffment, set up counties, books with the same language, cars with the same track. It was a real social revolution, through and through. But what happened to him after doing all this? He died in his second life. Vézé, when you wrote the history, many of the things in the article about the fall of the Qin State were written by you. I really admire you after reading it. But Vézé, what happened to the first emperor after the revolution? The revolutionary new regime caused huge problems in the system of the Qin State. The internal strife led to the rapid collapse of the order. Vézé, I really admire you. I think it is possible for you to achieve the revolution you want. But after the revolution, are you going to let the example of the second death happen again? "
Vézé could not bear the heavy feeling of history after being criticized by his own historian, who had been tempered by work. Since Vézé could not shout 'Down with the emperor, achieve the republic', he could only resist helplessly. "It's not like that!"
"If it's not like that, then what is it?" Qi Hongyi immediately asked.
Vézé replied, "When I establish this country, you will know what is going on. I have work to do, I'll leave first! "
Regardless of whether his wife was unhappy or not, Vézé hugged Qi Hongyi, kissed her on the cheek, and then slipped away.
When he entered the office, the first document was that Vietnam had sent another envoy. They requested the Liberation Army to send troops and divide the recaptured land equally between the two sides. Seeing that the Vietnamese finally could not hold on any longer, Vézé was very happy. Recently, the call to send troops to Vietnam was getting louder and louder. Some people even thought that there was no need to sign the treaty first, and that they should just drive the French out first. The direct result of France's crazy attack on Vietnam was that the rice output of Vietnam was decreasing.
At this time, a large number of Liberation Army troops entered the northern provinces, and the pressure on the food supply in Guangdong and Guangxi was reduced. But the decrease in Vietnam's food supply was still not an acceptable problem. Vietnamese and Siamese rice was still indispensable to Guangdong and Guangxi. To restore Vietnam's rice supply, the Nguyen regime must be stabilized. A stable and obedient Nguyen government could guarantee a stable supply of rice.
There were two important points in southern Vietnam. The first was naturally Saigon. Saigon was called Ho Chi Minh City in Vézé's time. It was a very important city. The second was Cam Ranh Bay. Once this famous military port became China's territory, it would become the fulcrum to attack Southeast Asia in the future.
Foreign wars had to be discussed by the Central Committee. During the meeting, General Staff Zhang Ju Junfeng raised a question. "The climate in southern Vietnam is warm and humid. Is it suitable for growing rubber?"
In Vézé's impression, the climate and land of the entire Indochina Peninsula and even the whole of Southeast Asia were suitable for growing rubber, palm, and other cash crops. According to Vézé's friend who sold vegetables to Southeast Asia, Southeast Asia was an important export market for China's vegetables. There were a large number of plantations in those areas. Plantations were suitable for cash crops, so Southeast Asia imported a large amount of China's vegetables.
Hearing Vézé clearly state that southern Vietnam was suitable for growing rubber, all the Central Committee members unanimously agreed to go to war against France. Ju Junfeng even shouted, "Let's vote now!"
What the hell! This is too realistic! Vézé was shocked. As far as Vézé knew, the Liberation Army's main source of income was not metal products, but liberation shoes. After all, metal products were durable. A kitchen knife could be used for several years. Sickles and other farm tools could also be used for several years. The demand for metal products in the liberated areas was gradually decreasing.
Products that consumed more steel, such as bicycles, were in high demand. But due to limited production capacity, they couldn't even meet the demand within the system. Nowadays, advanced workers were rewarded with bicycle subscriptions. After receiving bicycle subscriptions, they couldn't immediately buy them. They had to wait in line.
In the past two years, thanks to trade, they bought a large amount of rubber from South America. In addition, the rubber trees planted by the Liberation Army in 1855 also began to be harvested. Liberation shoes began to enter the civilian market. And it created a sensation. After the land reform, the people had some money in their hands. A pair of rubber shoes almost subverted the lives of ordinary people. Because the army used liberation shoes, they could save one or two hours a day. It was also extremely important for the people to save half an hour a day. Not to mention, with the liberation shoes, it was much easier for everyone to walk long distances. Their mobility was also greatly improved. Before every new batch of shoes entered the sales channel, the news had to be made public in the newspaper. The people who came to buy could line up one night in advance.
Not only did the Chinese buy, but also the British and Americans bought. They didn't understand the vulcanization process of rubber, but they knew that this kind of rubber-soled shoes was strong and durable. The price was more than 30% higher than the sales in China. The American businessman who sold oil to China bought 50,000 pairs of rubber shoes in one go at a 40% markup and shipped them back home. The sales were good, so this time he came to ask to buy another 100,000 pairs. But the Liberation Army's domestic supply could not meet the demand, so how could there be so many to supply the international market? So the American businessman begged his grandfather and grandmother, and even Vézé knew.
Everyone knew how to calculate. After all, imported rubber was expensive. If the Liberation Army could produce rubber steadily, then every penny it earned would fall into its own pocket. It was just that the army also began to consider the problems of the national economy. Vézé really didn't know whether he should be happy for the progress of society or worried about the flourishing ideas of the Empire.
As the chairman of the Liberation Party, Vézé also had to perform his duties. In the anticipation of a group of impatient Central Committee members, Vézé asked for a vote. Five minutes later, the Central Committee of the Liberation Party unanimously passed the resolution to go to war against the Annan French Army.
