Chapter 322: 322The Incomplete Emperor
Chapter 322 322The Incomplete Emperor
On the outskirts of Lines, there is a huge camp where soldiers from three legions are stationed, and a huge tent was temporarily built for Wright VII to live.
It can be said that most of the important officials of the Wright Kingdom have now moved here with their families, waiting for the moment when the construction of Lanes City is completed.
But this will be a long process, so they still have at least a few months to live in tents and live in the wilderness with 5,000 soldiers.
It's not that they are in a hurry to move, but that King Wright is in a hurry to hand over Jade City to Tang Mo so that Datang Group can launch its comprehensive plan to become emperor as soon as possible.
The entire plan will cost a huge amount of money, which is simply not something a kingdom that has been fighting for years can afford.
No one can start such a huge plan without putting up something as a mortgage. Tang Mo is not a fool. He cannot help Wright VII become another new emperor in this world.
Therefore, many ministers of the kingdom were forced to move their families and go on a half-year camping trip with their king, or in other words, their future emperor.
This migration was accompanied by chaos, and it also gave the entire Kingdom of Wright an unprecedented vitality.
In the process of migration, the dark side of decay in the kingdom was swept away, and at least on the surface it seemed to be prosperous.
The economy began to recover driven by the Datang Group throughout the year, and with the east wind of this great migration, it swept through most of the country.
Countless gold prospectors have flocked to Lanes, and they have indeed made their first pot of gold here.
The king made a generous decision, and the workers who participated in the construction of the new city would be allocated their own residences in the new city in the future.
This makes many people flock to it, and it also makes many people crazy about it. Although the ministers complained a lot, they all became considerate and reasonable after receiving the settlement allowance prepared by Datang Group for them.
There is no other way...It’s not that I don’t have a bottom line, it’s that Datang Group has given them too much...
…
Looking at the black and white photos placed on the table, His Majesty King Wright, who is not yet Lions I, still can’t believe his eyes.
To be honest, living in a tent is very inconvenient and sometimes boring. Most of the time, Wright VII can only visit the construction sites in Lanes City to kill his time.
After all, although the coronation ceremony, the victory parade, and the relocation of the capital cost a lot of money and energy, there really weren't many things waiting for him to do it personally.
There are some things that he doesn’t need to personally take care of as someone will help him take care of them, while some things are no longer under his control as the future emperor...
So, he became interested in some strange technologies of Datang Group, which happened to be about to appear at his coronation ceremony.
At this moment, for the first time in his life, he saw the "painting" technology that could restore the scenery before his eyes.
In other words, this is no longer a painting technology, but an unprecedented image presentation technology.
He first heard the word photography from the technical staff of Datang Group who introduced it to him.
Then he completely fell in love with this technology that can faithfully record real-time scenes - of course he had no idea that a magic called PS would appear in the future, making photos no longer real.
Averting his eyes from the black and white photo, trying hard to stop himself from looking at himself in the photo, Wright VII turned to look at the set of more complex equipment.
The person who sent this set of equipment called these weird-looking things that were more complicated than a Maxim heavy machine gun called cameras.
"It can record dynamic images... Although it is not as clear as taking pictures, it can indeed record coherent movements." The photographer is an old man. He was a painter before. Now he has become one of the first photographers in the world. One of them.
After all, shooting this requires a certain level of aesthetics, and film is now too expensive, so it is more suitable for professionals to operate it to reduce costs.
“We will faithfully record the entire military parade and at the same time record the entire coronation ceremony... This will be very important image data.” He explained to Wright VII while introducing the equipment.
Hearing what the other party said, Wright VII immediately became energetic: "You mean, this will be the first grand ceremony in the world that can be recorded with moving images?" There are too many people who became emperor earlier than him , but there are not many emperors who can retain the most glorious images of their enthronement ceremony.
In the past, many emperors hired painters to record their most glorious moments at all costs.
But no matter how hard they tried, they only got an ordinary large painting.
I am different. When I ascended the throne, I had a camera to take pictures and a video recorder to record it. I will be famous in history because of these precious images!
The whole world cannot erase his highlight moments. When anyone in the future studies photography technology, he will become an existence that cannot be avoided!
What kind of happiness is this? This is simply the best gift Tang Mo gave him! As the founding emperor, isn't what he cares about most now is to let his deeds be passed down forever?
The photographer replied excitedly: "Yes! Your Majesty! According to Datang Group, they will use special equipment to record the entire military parade, and will also record your coronation ceremony."
He was extremely excited to be selected to photograph an emperor's coronation ceremony. This is the first time that the entire world has used photography equipment to record such an important moment.
He can also go down in history and become a monument! This was the beginning of photography technology, and it was also the pinnacle of his personal artistic career!
After a brief absence, Wright VII burst out laughing: "Haha...hahahaha! Mr. Tang Mo is an interesting person, and I think he is really becoming more and more interested in me!"
He was very satisfied with this special gift from Tang Mo. It could even be said that he was unprecedentedly satisfied.
Although this was only a small detail in the entire ceremony, this detail really touched him and made him laugh from the bottom of his heart.
As an emperor, what he wants and is waiting for is not to create history and make himself the beginning of an era?
Now he has done it, not only created a dynasty, but also became a pioneer in another field, becoming the first!
This feeling...is really good!
After the photographer left, Wright VII sat back in his seat and moved away.
After making sure that there were no ears or eyes around him, a confidant minister who was guarding him spoke and said calmly: "According to the previous deal, he will become the first prince of the empire, and he will be a hereditary prince."
“Well, just give it to him. With his support, I, the emperor, will be more stable.” Wright VII reluctantly agreed.
"Yes, at the same time, we must define Bunas banknotes as imperial currency. The credit is jointly guaranteed by Bunas and the empire. Bunas banknotes will also be renamed imperial banknotes, and the unit is...yuan." The minister He continued to tell Wright VII: "The distribution and operation will be controlled by Datang Group."
Hearing unwillingness from the other party's words, Wright VII also sighed and complained: "To be honest, even if I only have a superficial knowledge, I don't want my country's currency to be issued and controlled by a businessman."
"Your Majesty..." This minister tried to persuade him with sincerity. He really didn't want the country's economy to be in the hands of others.
"Listen to me! I'm not a fool. I know there are infinite tricks in this. Tang Mo can easily control everything through the national legal currency. I, the emperor, have been exploited to an unprecedented extent." Wright VII As he spoke, he thought of Simone, his rip-off finance minister.
"However, I also know that this is a deal. He has hundreds of students serving in my army. More than half of the ministers in the court will act based on the face of Datang Group...even my 'loyal' prime minister Your Excellency...has become a **** neutral faction! Tang Mo has penetrated even more thoroughly than Sirik, and I am almost a lonely person." At this point, he seemed to be really angry.
"Your Majesty, you are taking this matter seriously. In fact, we are still in a cooperative relationship. Mr. Tang Mo has no intention of getting involved in the power of the Lions Empire." The minister knew that his master did not like to hear this, so he said After finishing, he added: "Although his power is indeed too great."
Wright VII said with a sinister expression: "I know...that's why I have endured it until now! As of today, the conflict between him and me is actually irreconcilable."
"Alas..." The minister could only pretend to sigh, as if there was a sense of helplessness in it.
"What he wants is the right to issue currency, and what he wants is the economy of the entire country... Even if it is just for self-protection, he wants too much... But I have to give him these things, because his support is mine. The basis for becoming emperor." After hearing this sigh, Wright VII couldn't help but sigh.
Still being wary of the other person and having to win their support, this feeling is actually very bad, very bad.
"Today, the entire country is in a delicate balance, but this balance may be broken at any time." He was very powerless about this situation, so he could only accept: "I can trust him, and he can also Maybe he really won’t rebel against me, but what happens after he dies, or after I die of illness? Will his son covet the throne under my son’s butt?”
"Your Majesty! Those are all things in the future... Thinking about these now..." The minister was afraid that his master would have any dangerous thoughts of resistance, so he hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
"I know...I know..." Wright VII interrupted the other person's comfort unwillingly.
