Chapter 105: 105 The Propaganda

The Imperial 1st Fleet consisted of many warships. All of which required hundreds of thousands of tons of iron. Just the production of steel, the empire could no longer be supported. Moreover, the construction period is extended. Zhao Lingxin had already estimated that summoning directly from the system was extremely worthwhile. No need to waste at least 6-7 years in production. Including a lot of construction resources.

The advantages of direct summoning warships are not all that. In the past, warships were collecting all cutting-edge technologies and technologies, including metallurgy, communication, weapons, engines, and power.

These warships will help the empire to research them. Shorten the scientific research period. Giving rise to new technology.

After summoning the warship, Zhao Lingxin did not return immediately. He decided to stay in Dongzhou for a while to observe the situation of this port town. Since Zhao Lingxin was now able to fly to the capital in less than two hours, there was no need to hurry back. Also, the State government's administration has a cabinet to supervise him without worrying about him. Zhao Lingxin took this opportunity to sunbathe at the beach and relax in comfort.

Beautiful white sand beach, clear blue sea, clear sky without pollution. This beach is blocked by the Royal Guards. Opened for Zhao Lingxin to rest alone.

"Very refreshing" Zhao Lingxin drank fresh good quality coconut water. Wear dark glasses and sunbathe without disturbing people.

However, Zhao Lingxin's period of peace would always be destroyed. The Royal Guardsman came to report.

"Your Majesty, now foreign merchants are protesting at the Tongzhou city office."

Zhao Lingxin's orders were enforced. There was a ten-fold increase in prices for foreign merchants. Plus 25 percent of the land pass tariffs. Almost causing these merchants to spit blood to death. They gathered to protest at the city office.

Zhao Lingxin's command was extremely effective. Many merchants are trying to find an entrance to buy goods at a low price. But they reach a dead end when they find that every purchase of a product must use something called an 'identity card' in the future. They are not imperial citizens; they do not have the right to have an ID card.

The merchants were all enraged with those who made this order. In the past of Tongzhou, merchants were great, have many powers in the city, and interfere with the administration. Even the Third Prince was powerless.

Foreign merchants have come together to offer a reduction in prices and free of customs duties.

"These merchants wouldn't know it was me who issued this order."

In the Empire, Zhao Lingxin had absolute power. The greedy foreign merchants thought they would come and profit from the Empire with their bare hands. Zhao Lingxin wanted to teach them that these were all useless. Zhao Lingxin's fists were able to smash them until they flattened.

"Add another 25 percent tariff." Zhao Lingxin wanted to make them realize that opposing would be useless, only causing more trouble.

Zhao Lingxin's order was enforced. The merchants sitting in front of the city officials were all shocked.

The original tariff was 25 percent. It has now become 50 percent. The merchants were all puzzled, not understanding what they were doing, offending someone? So they are being treated like this.

"Damn you, you think we're soft persimmons?"

Some merchants were upset, preparing to break into the city office. But they had to stop because the guards at the garrison had pointed a machine gun at them.

The merchants were not foolish, knowing the land of Dongzhou had changed ownership. The decisive emperor holds power without mercy. Killing people without blinking. Zhao Lingxin's reputation was horrible. It was said to be the worst tyrant in history. If they were to break in, they would probably cast their bodies into a corpse. Because the expressions of these soldiers' eyes that were serious radiated a killing, ready to shoot.

The foreign merchants could not resist; they downcast, accepting their fate. Since the product's price was ten times more high, they had to go back and sell it in their hometown, increasing the price twenty times to get the profit back. The financial situation of the four regions was in turmoil because of Zhao Lingxin's order.

Zhao Lingxin also reported that the protest merchants had dissolved.

"Let these merchants know not to challenge the power of the empire. This land does not want them to reap the benefits."

Zhao Lingxin turned back to the sunbathing. Take his time to rest.

At the western border of the empire, this place has military immigration. Between the borders, many tribes of the Dalian region were migrating to the Empire.

The empire had a policy of attracting immigrants to the country to increase the large working population. These tribes had a unique ability to rapidly fuse with imperial culture. This makes the government very interested in these immigrants.

Now, the empire has over two million tribes, many of whom have abandoned traditional traditions into the empire's culture.

A large number of Dalian citizens were rumored to have a good life in the Dazhou Empire. It consists of their harsh life; the landscape is mostly desert. Difficult to cultivate, causing the majority of people to march into the imperial border.

The Dalian Emperor ignored these things. He is focused on suppressing the rebellion and the civil war. Emperor Dalian was delighted that many people had evacuated because he had no burden to support these people.

The empire with a policy immigrant to increase the population. Welcoming the tribes so well that they are touched. Treat them better than their homeland.

Several tribes lined up to register.

"Look at the camera," the official said.

Many tribes stared at the black equipment with suspicion. Before, there was a flash of light in the blink of an eye. Many of them were shocked, bowed to their knees, bowed to the camera, like a god of light.

"The registration is complete. Welcome to the Empire." The officer handed out a card with their photo on it.

They were then taken to another room where men and women were separated. The staff gave each person a set of soap and cloth. Forcing the nomadic tribes to bathe and change into new clothes for cleanliness and sanitation. There were also a group of military doctors who were also screening for the epidemic.

The male and female tribes were amazed at the generosity of the empire. They gave the precious soap that Dalian County needed two cows to exchange for one. But this place didn't regret it. Some people even have regrets and do not dare to use hidden soap like a treasure.

The tribes were given fine cotton, far superior to the clothes they were wearing.

"The Empire is very rich." Now everyone's opinion is an empire as rich as a billionaire with unlimited money. Moreover, this rich man was kind and gave them many valuable things.

After a multi-step sorting process, the immigrants ate the delicious food they barely swallowed up their own tongues. In food, there is even meat and eggs. It should be noted that even for the New Year, they have not eaten such a luxury meal.

After the meal, it is the final stage of the immigration process into the empire. All the immigrants walked into a dark, pitch-black room. There was a screening of Zhao Lingin's film. Which tells the story of the mission to bring humanity back to greatness. In the movie, it praised Zhao Lingxin as a god. Mentioning the virtues that His Majesty tried to do for the people.

Many tribes shed tears. Since they crossed the border, they're all being treated well. The empire undoubtedly delivered valuable items. In addition, there was also an emperor who was concerned with the people. When compared to the war-mad Emperor Dalian. Zhao Ling Xin is the emperor with virtue and compassion towards the people.

The film also tells of the emperor who did whatever it takes, to improve everyone's well-being. The stories are told from the past to the present. Compare how well the people's existence has changed.

Everyone was envious of an empire that had such a good emperor. They suddenly felt that if they could change themselves to become citizens of the empire. They will surrender immediately and unconditionally.

At that moment, one of the officers turned on the light of the screening room and walked in.

"Are you willing to accept imperial citizenship?"

Immigrants didn't expect the opportunity to come before them. If they didn't take this opportunity, they would be foolish.

Many of them quickly knelt down. Quickly said,

"I will."

"Follow my swear," said the officer. Then everyone took an oath to the portrait of Zhao Lingxin.

"I will be a good citizen of the country. Do anything for the emperor. Die for the emperor. I swear in the name of Di Tian. Let Di Tian be the witness to Long live the empire."

The tribes made a sincere oath. Some even shouted loudly, afraid that if they speak softly will miss the opportunity to become a citizen of the empire.

The brainwashing ritual continued until the end. The officer said with a smile to everyone.

"Congratulations, from now on, everyone is the people of this country."
