Military System god realm revolution

Chapter 173: 173 Economic intervention

To investigate and prevent Martial Artists from hidden in depth. Zhao Lingxin had to rely on his system once again. Zhao Lingxin had summoned more than five thousand people from the system as a skilled spy. Added fangs to the inspection bureau.

The Bureau of Investigation and the Department of State Security immediately began operating in secret. Thousands of bogies are in disguise. Befriend with the hiding Martial Artists. The Inspectorate's agent may become the new neighbor. Or that the garbage collector. Even a newspaper delivery boy.

A wiretap detects every step of the way. Let's just have a few suspicions. All these spies will do whatever it takes to stop every Martial Artist. Both weapons and poison will be used.

The government is not silent on this issue. They gathered detailed information. Plan high-level operations in case to clean up the Martial Artists. Of course, these matters were very challenging because the Martial Artists were scattered throughout the Empire. If military action is taken, it must be dealt with immediately. It must not affect the economic security as well. This has become an overwhelming task for the Military Commission to draw up a response plan.

After Zhao Lingxin ordered the border to be closed. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has carefully examined the historical data and found that there were 5-10 Martial Artists who came per day during this time. Which were assumed to be all lower-level Martial Artists. They spread to different areas of the Empire.

The government is worried that if the middle of the Great Continent was becoming more and more intense over time, there would definitely be more immigration Martial Artists. Because this world is a Martial Artists' land, there are billions of people with profound energy. It is undoubtedly not a careless matter. If there were over a million Martial Artists in the Empire. Zhao Lingxin was afraid that there would be an incident to change the emperor for sure.

In the end, the government did not resolve this issue. And it is almost impossible to block the border anyway. Because it would affect the Empire's economy, especially in the export sector

Zhao Lingxin ordered the border reopened. With measures to keep an eye on the Martial Artists who have entered in detail, they do not lose sight.

The Empire was having a big problem. Within the territory of the country, there is a problem tucked under the rug. The territories of the four provinces surrounding the Empire also experienced an economic crisis.

Since the signing of the treaty is not fair. Modern goods flooded the four regions. Now though, they have begun to borrow money from the Empire, developing the domestic infrastructure. But the factory that produced the products they set up suffered heavy losses.

The factory produces this modern product. They bought the patents from the Empire, but they are inexperienced. Inability to produce good products. This included having a higher price, causing the factories that the four regions were established to suffer losses until they gradually closed down.

The products in the market were all made in the Empire. All four countries could not be self-sufficient at all. This problem has already begun to affect their agricultural sector in all four countries.

Earlier, each diplomatic representative brought the imperial agricultural products back to their own country. Like potatoes and corn, they wanted these plants to be popular in their region because the yield is so high.

Emperor Li Lianzhong, who heard that these crops yield ten times higher than rice, immediately urged the royal court's nobles to promote cultivation.

Now the harvest season has begun. Emperor Li Lianzhong and the court of all provinces expected that this year's produce would provide farmers with income. People do not starve. There is no less inferior to the Empire.

Not only this, the nobles from the four provinces of the royal court gave a thorough analysis of the prosperity of the Empire. They found that Zhao Lingxin started with agricultural tax laws. Causing each region's royal court to imitate the legal policy that Zhao Lingxin thought to apply to their own country.

The farmers of each region were crying with joy. This year the royal court did not collect a single portion of their taxes. Bring a lot of hope. Each person was eagerly awaiting the coming harvest.

But when they harvest the potatoes, corn, and other crops, they have to meet harsh truths when selling their products on the market.

"Wait, why is my crop price half the price of the previous year? What does this mean?"

As soon as farmers sell their products. They just can't accept the low price of this year's crop, too low on the soil. Just the cost, the expense is higher than the purchase price. If they were selling out at this price, they would all go bankrupt immediately.

"That's it. Explain it now." Farmers are suppressing the truth from traders who buy crops at such a low price.

"You can't blame me like this. During this time, the prices of crops in the market were meager. You are the ones who sell too high prices." The merchant raised a reason to fight. While challenging everyone to explore the market to prove the truth.

Agriculture was helpless. This turned out to be the blame for selling expensive. So many people started walking around the market and found that the word of the merchant was accurate. Agricultural prices are now half lower than last year.

"Impossible, I don't believe." Farmers rub their eyes several times. In case they dream, but the truth is cruel. The price was clearly visible in front of him. If they sell expensive, there is no one to buy. Forced to cut the cost in half to sell the product.

This was because the imperial agricultural commodities were also exported. The market was devastated, causing all prices to plummet according to the law of economics.

The Empire had modern cultivation technologies such as chemical fertilizers, agricultural equipment such as tractors that shortened time and increased agrarian land. Greenhouse cultivation Irrigation and reservoir dams. Make the Empire capable of cultivating every season.

Moreover, there are now genetically modified crops. Resulting in higher yield rates than before. Break the record of 5 tons per rai While the surrounding region has a yield of about 1.5-2 tons per rai.

So much of the Empire's products were exported to foreign countries, where all four regions were affected entirely.

Prices of agricultural products in the country fall to the lowest point. Consumers even cried out, delighted that their cost of living had dropped. Can buy supplies for the children to fill their stomach. People's lives are extremely happy. They responded favorably to the lower prices of agricultural products like this.

But this is every farmer's nightmare. When the cost price is too high. Their products cannot be sold out. Who will continue to invest in agriculture? Many people even quit this career and don't do it anymore. As a result, many countries can no longer produce their own crops.

They had to rely on importing cheap agricultural products from the Empire into the country. The food security had dropped to a bottom.

This crisis, the nobles were clearly aware of. If left to do so, the agricultural sector in the country will end completely from now on. They will have to depend on the Empire for the rest of their lives.

But these nobles could not find a solution. The Empire exported the goods according to the treaty. They can't stop the Empire, only sit and watch the woe that wreaks upon the country. Soon, their land will be annexed by the Empire.

The agricultural crisis has come. The ruling class could only sit and can't do anything. Emperor Li Lianzhong's expression was exhausted as soon as he heard the news.

The nobles in the hall were silent. They noticed the fall in their country, without the glory like the past. The hall was full of sorrow as if the last day was approaching.

Emperor Li Lianzhong was devastated. But he tried with his last strength to console everyone.

"All of you do not lose hope. We definitely must have a way to survive." Emperor Li Lianzhong pretended to be strong. To encourage some nobles.

But in front of the hall, the officer came.

"Report His Majesty. There has been a big deal."

Emperor Li Lianzhong could hardly accept bad news any longer. Suddenly fell unconscious and fell on the dragon throne, in the sight of everyone.
