Chapter 2934 Intense
"It's difficult, it's really too difficult." Sokka said that the city is not easy to build, the economy is not easy to manage, and it is true that governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. Facing Azula's money and ammunition, Sokka felt numb.
Even if the uncle has reminded him, it is not easy to control it. Fortunately, the sound of the magical power is still there, at least it is not helpless. Moreover, Guan Shanhai has unified the management of food, cloth, salt, steel, and electricity. Generally speaking, it is still stable now, but it will definitely be troublesome in the short term.
"After solving one problem, the next problem appears. In the past, the biggest problem was the military expansion of the Fire Nation and the ambition of the Fire King. Now they have been defeated, but new development problems have emerged. I can't imagine how many problems will be waiting for us later. It seems that the road to peace is a thorny road." Sokka realized that problems will come one after another. Even if the problem of asset appreciation is suppressed now, there will be other problems later.
For example, how can people who rely on geographical environment to get rich first develop backward areas? How can places that have become rich continue to make money? These problems are very realistic.
"Let's solve the current problems first. Each generation has its own responsibilities. Our job is to lay a good foundation for them." Katara said that her brother and fiancée didn't need to be embarrassed, because there were too many problems, and they couldn't solve them with their little brains. It would be better to discuss the current problems.
In fact, there are not many ways. We can only let everyone be patient, suppress the appreciation of assets, and then create more jobs.
Duran secretly observed and found that Azula was also going crazy. It was not easier than the life of the Avatar, because her money was borrowed, which greatly exceeded the value of the Yin-Yang battery, so she had to prove that she had the ability to repay the money before she could continue to borrow money.
But the more debts, the more interest you have to pay. If you don't pay the interest, you can't continue to borrow money. This is a contradiction that the princess can't overcome.
This kind of financial game is not playable by ordinary people. Fortunately, Azula's heart is extremely strong. Even if she dances on a tightrope, she is not afraid at all. Now the Avatar City has become her problem. Because she has been unable to capture it for a long time, the appreciation of assets cannot satisfy her, and she can't harvest it happily.
It has risen a little, but not completely, which is very embarrassing. This amount of money could not satisfy Azula's ambition at all. She wanted to take away all the energy used for production in Avatar City in one wave. The money that has appreciated now is not enough for food and drink.
"If it doesn't work, go to the Fire Nation to harvest?" Azula thought that if she couldn't harvest enough profits in Republic City, she could only kill her relatives for the sake of justice and attack her own country. Azula didn't mind extending her evil black hands to her hometown where she was born and raised.
Duran couldn't help but remind her: "Although your plan is good, you have a small problem, that is, you have not cultivated a ruling regime that is close to you. This will cause you to pay more costs when you harvest. Even if you are willing to invest in the Fire Nation, you may be trapped at that time unless you can support a king who is close to you."
Azula's plan is very good, but there is a small flaw, that is, she did not support a regime that is close to her. Why can the United States harvest the whole world? It is because he will support pro-American regimes, so that when it comes to harvesting, it will be handy and easy.
Azula suddenly realized that there were too many things to do, and she really forgot this point. However, it is not easy to support a king who is close to you in the Fire Nation. After thinking about it, there is only one way: spend money.
Azula is fighting for the world anyway, and the interests in her hands are all others'. She is very generous.
The king is generous, but the king is also stingy. When it comes to the interests of others, the king can be generous to others, but when it comes to his own interests, the king will be stingy.
Now Azula's money is all earned by taking advantage of others, so she doesn't feel bad about selling her father's land. She said that the best way to support the forces that are close to her is to spend money.
"You can't cultivate people in power, you have to support people in the opposition, it costs less and saves more effort." Azula's little brain began to spin quickly, this is also an economic account.
Spend money to help people in the opposition to do things, and after the harvest is completed, split it with them 30% and 70%, 70% for yourself, and 30% for others.
Duran said that Azula does have a talent for doing bad things. Anyway, she doesn't have to make any moral struggles for anything that can harm others and benefit herself. She just does it when she thinks of it. As long as it is cost-effective, she doesn't care about the result at all. As expected, it was the person I chose, and it was so good that my scalp tingled.
How much money would it cost to persuade the rebellion, how much money could be earned, and how to divide the accounts, and what would be the final benefits of this process, all of which could be calculated and carried out smoothly.
Azula had never considered such things as development. As long as others could not develop, she could always cut the leeks, and this model could last for a long time.
In fact, this model also had problems, that is, Azula would only borrow more and more money, and the degree of cutting the leeks would become more and more serious. In the end, if there were one or two natural disasters and man-made disasters, a war of resistance would finally break out.
Development is changing, cutting the leeks is constant, and the variables will eventually defeat the constants.
After Duran's reminder, Azula quickly started to act. It can only be said that this was the failure of the previous generation of Fire Lord's education, which taught Azula to fight for power and profit, causing her to live for this goal all her life and could not stop at all.
Azula operated on two fronts, and at the same time cultivated opponents in the city of Avatar, so many people who opposed Avatar appeared in the city, and they demanded that Avatar step down.
An was helpless. He had endured being called the second Fire Lord. Now someone wanted him to step down. He didn't know what the hell was going on. He was obviously doing it for the good of everyone. Could it be that he could stand against him just because he was paid?
As it turned out, it was possible.
It was really a scene of swords and sabers. Although there was no blood, it was full of dangers. If you were not careful, you would be in trouble.
"They have forgotten that the reason why Shentong was respected was not only because of his character, but also because of his power. Now we have to imitate Shang Yang's reforms, chop off 700 heads in a row, and dye the river red, so as to set things right." Duran ran to Shentong's side as soon as he gave the princess advice.
Shentong said that he would not kill them. He would consult Zuko. The other party had encountered this problem before.
Zuko had indeed encountered it before. His solution was to hold a meeting, then coerce and bribe the opponents, and speak earnestly to his own people. Anyway, he had said it openly and made the truth clear. If they still wanted to oppose, then it was not his fault that his men were ruthless.
In short, the same words are repeated over and over again. Sometimes Zuko even suspects that he is becoming a repeater.
Shentong also follows suit and holds meetings. He tells opponents not to act recklessly. If they support him, everyone will develop together. If they oppose him and hinder development, he will not be polite. He tells his own people to be fair, not to be greedy for pleasure, not to be partial to others and corrupt...
Anyway, he keeps repeating, and Shentong also realizes that the essence of human beings is actually a repeater.
Repeating is still effective. Under Shentong's repeated reiteration, some people do think that Shentong is still a good person and should not betray him for money. But there are also people who think that good people should be pointed at with guns, and there is no need to worry about retaliation for betraying good people. This money is earned with peace of mind and spent comfortably.
