Chapter 357 Who is it?(1/2)

After coming out of King Jinshan's residence, Fang Guoshou took Timur back to the official residence of the Geluolu Affairs Department.

This is the agency stationed in Jinshan City by the Longyou Dudufu and has jurisdiction over all Tang people in the Geluolu area.

Fang Guoshou took off his riding boots and said to Timur: "My resignation report has been approved by King Jianning, and now I will start handing over the work of the Geluolu Affairs Department."

Timur stood up straight immediately. He had received the mission, and now he was the consolation envoy of the Geluolu Affairs Department.

The consolation envoy of the Ge Luolu Affairs Department is the department that coordinates all affairs of Longyou regarding Ge Luolu.

This is not just a diplomatic department, but represents the suzerain state of Datang, and can directly control the domestic affairs of Jinshan.

Although he could not directly give orders to Jinshan Kingdom, with Fang Guoshou's exquisite methods, he had transformed the entire Jinshan Kingdom into what he wanted.

A vassal state completely surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

Whether politically or militarily, or economically or culturally, they are completely inseparable from the suzerainty of Longyou.

Fang Guoshou said: "Culture is the best way to control these small countries. The huge centripetal force of the Tang Dynasty culture will allow Geluolu to quickly Chineseize and assimilate the Geluolu people culturally. This is our long-term strategy."

Timur immediately sat upright. This was Fang Guoshou's job to hand over to the Geluolu Affairs Department.

Fang Guoshou added: "It is not enough to have culture alone. Economic penetration is also very important."

"The mining industry in Jinshan Kingdom, from pickaxes to chemicals for washing gold mines, all have to be imported from Longyou."

"Today's Geluolu people are just mining in Jinshan instead of Datang."

"However, Jinshan can still bring a lot of wealth to the Geluolu people, so we need to use higher-end products to harvest them."

"Now the Governor's Office has approved it. Soap, wine, ready-made clothes, oil lamps and cans have all been added to the trade with Geluolu."

"These products are all products with comparative profits. We will continue to take advantage of the scissors gap in trade to harvest the gold in the hands of the Geluolu people."

Timur nodded, this is Longyou's established policy and a long-term policy.

Fang Guoshou continued: "Only by yearning for the Tang Dynasty culturally can Jinshan Kingdom be economically dependent on the Tang Dynasty."

"So promoting Datang culture is very important."

"I have applied to the Governor's Office to invite a theatrical troupe to tour in Jinshan Country."

Timur nodded repeatedly, and I have to say that Fang Guoshou's method is quite effective. Nowadays, the Geluolu people are all spiritual Tang people, and they treat Tang businessmen very affectionately.

Fang Guoshou added: "No matter how good the suzerain country is, after the national consciousness of the Geluolu people awakens, they will break out in resistance."

"You have a good personal relationship with King Jinshan, which is a great thing."

"I have already done everything for you to offend people. The next thing you have to do is to strictly enforce the law. If a businessman from the Tang Dynasty violates the law, he must be dealt with impartially. You must not have the idea of ​​being superior to others."

"In addition, in the name of the Xuanwei Envoy, you can sponsor some smart children from Jinshan Kingdom to study abroad in Longyou. In the future, you can turn this into a long-term charity project to win over the elites of Jinshan Kingdom."

"The last thing is about the Buddhist academy."

Fang Guoshou looked at Timur and said, "You don't understand Buddhism, so you can't suppress these monks like me."

Timur nodded, and Fang Guoshou debated sutras in the Great Buddhist Temple, but he convinced the entire monks in Gaochang City.

Later, Fang Guoshou wanted to establish a Buddhist academy on the grassland, and all the eminent monks and virtuous men from Gaochang City rushed to the grassland to help the elderly and the young.

After Fang Guoshou resigned, Timur no longer had enough prestige to control the Buddhist Academy.

Fang Guoshou said: "You will definitely not be able to argue with those monks in terms of Buddhism, but you only need to firmly grasp the issuance of ultimatums and monk assessment. Any monks who are dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty are not allowed to preach. The Geluolu people's own monks are also prohibited from preaching.

He must be sent to a Buddhist academy to study."

"Religion is a very powerful force. If you use it, you will benefit. If you don't use it, others will naturally use it."

"What you need to grasp is legitimacy!"

Timur knew nothing about religion, so he asked doubtfully: "What is orthodoxy?"

Fang Guoshou said: "In fact, religion is constantly developing."

"Whether it's East or West, there are countless sects under every religion."

"Both the Bible and the Buddhist scriptures are dead books, and it is humans who interpret the scriptures, and this right to interpret is the focus of the competition between various factions."

"To any believer, a heretic is more abominable than a heretic."

"Pagans are enemies and can be assimilated and even cooperated with."

"But heretics are enemies who compete for the right to interpret scriptures. They are enemies of life and death and enemies of faith. They must be eliminated no matter what."

"You don't understand religion, but as long as you insist on taking the Buddhist school as the orthodoxy, support them in suppressing heretics."

"This way we can maintain our religious tools."

Timur nodded and kept Fang Guoshou's teachings in mind.

Fang Guoshou patted Timur on the shoulder and said:

"You are on good terms with King Jinshan and have a good relationship with everyone in the Mouluo tribe, so you can use a more gentle approach."

After Fang Guoshou finished speaking, he handed over the silver seal representing the Geluolu Affairs Department to Timur.

According to the current system reform, the governors of each state, the governor of the Beiting Protectorate, the Geluolu Xuanwei Division, the Uighur Xuanwei Division, the Tuyuhun Town Fu Division, the general staff office under the governor's office and the chief officers of each division, plus the salt judge

The chief of the Railway Revenue Department, these departments are awarded the Silver Seal.

These positions are equivalent to the second- and third-rank state governors in the Tang Dynasty, and are the first-level positions under the governor's office.

The county magistrates of each county, the Shouchuo Order of the Shouchuo Prefecture, and local officials at the level of the Pass Chief Officer were all awarded the bronze seal.

Touching the silver official seal, Timur received a system prompt.

[Congratulations to the player Tamerlane, for obtaining the position - Secretary of the Geluolu Affairs Department! 】

[Congratulations to player Timur, the main profession [Envoy] has been upgraded to level 15! 】

[Upgrade your career level to level 15 and unlock the career level achievement reward—senior civil servant uniform!]

[Players please continue to work hard and improve your professional level!]

By the time the handover was completed, it was almost midnight.

Timur asked: "Mr. Fang, Ge Luolu still has so many things to do, where are you going when you resign?"

Fang Guoshou's resignation was a very sudden event for the entire Geluolu Affairs Department.

Even King Jinshan wrote to King Jianning, asking Fang Guoshou to stay.

However, Fang Guoshou was determined to resign, so everyone had no choice but to send him away.

When Timur asked, Fang Guoshou smiled and said:

"I left my job in order to realize a larger plan. I have a new use in this big plan."

"Big plan?"

Fang Guoshou said: "You are now an official at the silver seal level, so you should know it."

[Player Fang Guoshou invites you to join the Players Guild - "The Great Grand Plan". 】

What the hell is this? A secret society?

Timur clicked Accept, and he joined a new union.

According to the current rules of the game, a player can join three player unions.

Timur originally joined two unions, and this happened to be the third union.

After joining the union, Timur looked at the union's member list, and as expected, they were all players in the first echelon of the game.

Timur was a little excited, he finally entered the first echelon!

Fang Guoshou said: "[The Great Ambition] The only goal of this union is to determine the direction of Longyou's development!"

Fang Guoshou was indeed not arrogant. The people who joined this union were all powerful people in the game.

"New boss joins the group, group status -1!" Qin Chuan was the first to jump out of the group.

"Director Fang has recruited people to join the club, the new boss should give out red envelopes quickly! (dog licking expression)" Cui Tao said casually while handling government affairs in Zhangye City.

"Brother Timur, how much gold can we bring back this month?" This is Jiang Lun, the director of the Salt and Iron Taxation Department who was urging work in the group.

Timur hurriedly sent a few words, and then Fang Guoshou said:

"Mr. Fang, what exactly does our union do?"

Fang Guoshou said calmly: "Either I said it, or I made a plan for the development of Longyou."

Timur asked quickly: "What about the big plan you mentioned?"

Fang Guoshou said: "There is nothing wrong with this plan. It was proposed by Yu Junjie and Xu Jun from the staff office."

Yu Junjie and Timur naturally knew that it was he who came up with the strategy of flooding Jinshan.

Now Yu Junjie is the deputy chief of staff, responsible for tactics and training.

Xu Jun is the director of the General Staff Office and the military think tank of King Jianning.

The Staff Office is also the largest military organization in Longyou, which is gradually expanding, and can almost intervene in the military work of Longyou.

Now that Fang Guoshou mentioned these two people, Timur's eyes lit up and he said:
