Chapter 41 Plan
The atmosphere in the study suddenly froze.

The world.

When these two words were spoken, they felt as if they were weighing a thousand pounds.

Even Di Ming couldn't help but become serious, looking at the sword inserted in the map on the wall. Compared with Douluo Continent, the Kingdom of Silvester was much smaller.

"Fourth brother, you are going to rebel."

His voice was very low, but several people heard it.

Di Yuan looked at his son. He almost didn't recognize him. Was he still his son? The previous Di Hong was so focused on cultivation that he didn't care about anything else.

As a result, he went out to fight a war, and when he came back he said he wanted the world.

"You want to be King Silvester?"

"No, I have never thought about being a king. I have never even thought about being an emperor." Di Hong shook his head.

"Then what do you want the world for?" Emperor Ming asked at this time. He was a little confused. He wanted to rebel, but he didn't even want to be the emperor. What kind of routine was this?
"We are a family. If I want the world, doesn't that mean you want it too?"

"Why must I be the emperor?"

"Why can't it be the father or the eldest brother?"

"We are all members of the Emperor's family, so it doesn't matter who is the Emperor."

"After this war, I have come to realize that if we want to achieve long-term peace, we must unify. Only unification can put an end to war."

The study fell into silence again. Di Hong was right. Di Yuan was also aware of the benefits that unification could bring, but to be honest, he did not want unification because unification would inevitably affect the interests of many people.

For example, these nobles and the Spirit Hall.

A powerful and unified continental empire would not allow the existence of forces like the Spirit Hall, and these nobles would inevitably become the victims or the abandoned parties in the war of unification.

It is difficult for a person who has enjoyed an upper-class life to return to the ordinary life he had before.

If you ask an emperor to beg for food, will he be able to do it?

Of course, although he opposed the unification of the mainland, that was because he opposed others unifying the mainland. Unless the person who unified the mainland could continue to safeguard their interests, he would never support it.

If he were asked to unify the continent, he would agree 100%. Who would dislike having their own power be better?

"If that is the case, the kingdom does not have the ability to do so. Whether in terms of military or spirit master strength, we do not have the strength to unify the continent."

Di Yuan was obviously tempted, but he was not stupid. He knew very well that with the national strength of the Kingdom of Silvester, it would be wishful thinking to unify the continent.

"Then let's take it slow, twenty years, thirty years, forty years, fifty years, a hundred years."

"If one generation fails, then two generations will do. If two generations fail, then three generations will do."

"As long as we work hard, we will succeed one day."

Di Yuan looked at Di Hong.

"It seems you already have a plan."

"You've been thinking this way for a while, right?"

"Tell me about your plan." "Okay."

"My plan can be summarized into just a few points: self-strengthening, infiltration, and winning over."

Afterwards, Di Hong told Di Yuan and the other two about the plan he had come up with the previous year. Of course, he also concealed a lot. He could not tell Di Yuan and the others about Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue and Tang San, nor could he tell them that the Spirit Hall would start a war in a few decades.

Self-strengthening means strengthening the comprehensive strength of the Kingdom of Silves, both in economy and military. Given the current situation of the Kingdom of Silves, if it wants to become stronger, it must reform, that is, change the law.

Reforms cannot be done casually. Such things must be combined with the actual situation and national conditions. He cannot do such things. He can provide some ideas based on his memories of his previous life. Reforms must be done by Di Yuan or Di Yang.

Strengthening the army means carrying out military reforms, such as building a fierce and powerful army like the Qin army or the Tang army in the past.

In Douluo Continent, if you are not a soul master, it is very difficult for ordinary people to make a name for themselves, because this world is controlled by the nobles, so becoming a soul master is almost the only way out for ordinary people.

But not everyone can become a soul master, especially ordinary people without family background.

Nobles can recruit civilian soul masters, but they will not awaken martial spirits for ordinary people. In their eyes, civilians will always be civilians, and wanting to become soul masters is basically a dream.

The Junior Soul Master Academy has places for part-time students. These are for those who have just awakened their martial souls, come from poor backgrounds and cannot afford the tuition. He has specifically learned that there are not many part-time students in the Junior Soul Master Academy in the kingdom.

Since most people cannot become soul masters, it is considered good if there is one soul master among a hundred people.

Every year, the Spirit Hall sends people to the villages below to help them awaken their spirits. However, among the children of school age in dozens of villages, the number of spirit masters can be counted on one hand. When you are lucky, you can meet a few, but when you are unlucky, you may not meet one even if you visit a dozen villages.

There are many villages like this throughout the kingdom. Not to mention common people, even those from aristocratic families cannot become soul masters. Of course, these are only a minority.

Innate soul power almost awakens the future of a soul master. Without soul power, there is no future unless there is a great opportunity.

This is the cruelty of this world.

However, although they are looked down upon as commoners by others, they have infinite power in Di Hong’s eyes.

As a time traveler, he knows that the power of the people is great and that the people who unite are invincible. He believes that these words are still applicable in Douluo Continent, because although soul masters are powerful, they are not so outrageously powerful.

After all, Tang San’s hidden weapons were able to severely injure Qian Renxue, who had become a god.

Unite the civilians, recruit and train soul masters, carry out reforms, recruit craftsmen to build military equipment, and reform the army to make it stronger.

Of course, all this requires money, and a lot of money, so his plan also includes encouraging agriculture and commerce, and encouraging industry, agriculture, and commerce to move forward in unison. Only developed commerce can bring in more tax revenue, and the geographical location of the Kingdom of Silves is just right.

Although it is surrounded on all sides, it is located on an important trade route.

Developed agriculture can also bring more food, encourage industry, and bring better equipment.

Of course, there is also the issue of public security. As the capital of the kingdom, Silvester City has always been responsible for public security issues under the Spirit Hall. Every day, the Spirit Hall arrests people and sends them to prison. The kingdom's city defense forces are like idlers. In his opinion, this is absolutely not allowed. The kingdom must be responsible for the public security of the capital.

Not only the capital, but the entire kingdom.

Only a safe and stable environment can attract more people.

Another thing is to cultivate military and administrative talents and increase investment in the Soul Master Academy.

Infiltration is very simple, it means exactly what it sounds like, but it requires building a strong intelligence organization. Di Hong is not good at building an intelligence organization, so this kind of thing can only be done by Di Yuan and others.

The goal of this intelligence organization is to infiltrate the two empires.
