Chapter 359
"......Your Excellency the Treasurer is right!
Economic development is the top priority, and other matters can be put aside for the time being.
After careful consideration, I decided to completely abolish the trade barriers set up against other countries.
And boldly try to allow people from Demacia, Freljord, and even small neighboring countries such as Hartvia and Dorondo to enter our country..."
Jincheng's move shows his full support for the treasurer who is devoted to the economy.
It must be said that Jincheng, with his novel thinking, is indeed eclectic and courageous.
After all, it is absolutely unacceptable to close the country to the outside world.
In Jincheng's eyes, Demacia is undoubtedly a great kingdom that attaches great importance to the law and is strong.
This country is even more famous for its military exploits, reputation, and long-standing reputation.
Since ancient times, Demacians have always upheld the concepts of justice, honor, and responsibility, and are proud of them. This almost fanatical pride comes from their deep traditions and cultural heritage.
Because of this, Demacia can be proud of itself on the Valoran continent, and can fight fiercely with other powerful countries without showing any weakness.
Especially in the years of war with Noxus, both sides have won and lost, and it is difficult to tell who is better.
However, Jincheng believes that even if these lofty ideals have been upheld, the stubborn and self-righteous Demacia has become more and more closed and self-defensive in the past few hundred years, almost becoming a typical representative of isolationism.
For foreigners, it is extremely difficult to set foot on the territory of Demacia. If they do not have a legitimate identity, they will be expelled soon.
Not only that, the country's policy is also dominated by blockade and confinement.
In the long run, the country's competitiveness will inevitably decline significantly.
Fortunately, the territory under Jincheng's jurisdiction happens to be located on the border of Demacia.
Although there may be the threat of war here, from another perspective, this land is also an extremely favorable place for opening up and making profits.
"Ah?"
Just as the treasurer stepped down from the podium, he heard the viscount come forward and praise his economic ideas.
However, just as the smile on the treasurer's face had not yet fully bloomed, he suddenly heard Jincheng express his hope to further open up various fields in the North Sea Forest and plan to introduce populations from other countries...
Even allowing them to enter and settle in order to meet construction and labor needs.
He definitely did not say those words!
In an instant, the treasurer felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his whole body was cold.
He clearly sensed that countless hostile eyes were staring at him, as if they were going to pierce him.
He only wanted other parties to make concessions for economic development, but he never thought of opening up the North Sea Forest!
Then, several stubborn Demacia conservatives jumped out and questioned what Jincheng said.
They did not completely deny Jincheng's remarks, but they just thought that such an act was too aggressive and rash.
However, Jincheng, relying on the majesty of the viscount, resolutely decided to gradually implement these policies.
After all, population is the top priority.
After saying that, Jincheng expressed his unwavering position, and even left the scene without waiting for the meeting to end.
"Why are you still so willful like a child!" Looking at Jincheng's confident look, Fiona felt helpless and couldn't help muttering to herself.
As for Jincheng, Fiona, who was full of helplessness and regret, was left alone to face the angry and passionate protests of the crowd.
Jincheng and Fiona seemed to have formed an unspoken understanding.
Whenever the man proposed policies that were out of touch with reality and contrary to the background of the times.
Fiona could always cleverly adjust these inappropriate policies according to the rules and regulations of Demacia, and put them into practice in a gentle way that was in line with the style of Demacia.
Jin Cheng was very satisfied with this, after all, he did have many personal affairs to deal with.
......
"Territory should not be a shackle that imprisons me! Even if the North Sea Forest belongs to me, I will never be bound by this land and always stay in Demacia!
Many times, absolute individual strength and personal heroism can be the most correct choice."
In the tactical room, Jin Cheng's thinking is extremely clear.
In the spacious house, an extremely large war sand table is placed in the center of the room.
The densely packed small flags and intricate terrain on it are all for the soldiers to plan tactics and deploy troops.
This room was designed and supervised by Fiona herself.The elaborate layout of the map shows the girl's eagerness to fight on the battlefield and establish merit.
On one wall, a huge and detailed map is hung high.
This not only shows the situation of the surrounding areas of Demacia, but also covers most of the vast areas of Runeland.
The map shows an endless land and an endless sea that is more vast and boundless than the land.
Jin Cheng is concentrating on the magnificent map in front of him, with a thoughtful light in his eyes.
If you look closely, you can find that the map clearly marks the locations of many major countries and a series of small countries.
In this world full of magical power, although most areas have not yet started the industrialization process, its map-making technology is quite reliable and trustworthy.
The vast ocean surrounds the entire Rune Continent; among them, the main part of Valoran is located in the central area;
To the south is the vast and sandy Shurima;
The eastern Ionia continent is isolated from the outside world like a paradise;
In addition, there are many large and small islands scattered in the Sea of Conquest and the Sea of Watch.
Jincheng has always been known for his careful consideration and careful planning.
At the beginning, he resolutely chose to start from Freljord and head south to Demacia. This decision was actually made after a long period of careful planning and preparation.
He stared at the hanging map, looking for the next target location.
As we all know, whether it is the books and other historical documents of Demacia, it is clear that the prosperity of Ionia makes everyone fascinated and envious.
If Noxus had not invaded Ionia, Jincheng had planned to start from Demacia, travel east to the border of Noxus, and then cross Piltover and Zaun.
Then, he would follow the direction of the Sun Wheel to Bilgewater, and finally take a large ship to Ionia.
In addition, he also planned to use the fleet to transport a large amount of food and fodder that was common in Ionia but scarce in Freljord.
Although the journey was long and arduous, the amount of cargo that a large ship could accommodate was far greater than that of a small carriage.
If the ocean currents could be used properly, the sailing time could be shortened by nearly half.
However, it is regrettable that the once rich and fertile land is now groaning in pain and devastated under the ruthless trampling of Noxus's cavalry.
Even in the distant Jincheng of Demacia, news about the Noai War continued to come.
The war was one-sided, shocking and weak with Ionia.
The people of Ionia seem unable to withstand the fierce attack of the powerful Noxian army.
"So, it's time for me to set off!"
...
"The situation on the northeastern defense line of Demacia is grim, and the situation is not optimistic, but don't be afraid, Jincheng, you are my brother-in-law! We know the situation in the North Sea Forest very well.
Things like expeditions, food collection, and conscription will definitely not fall on your poor and remote place!
You should be thankful that you can protect yourself! In short, your share has already been filled by your father.
So, you just need to be nice to our Fiona!
But to be honest, I don't think you need to worry about this at all, Fiona following you is simply a blessing from her previous life.
After all, who else can indulge Fiona's hobbies except you?
You really don't know that those grandsons of Noxus actually used black magic on the battlefield and created a bunch of dead ghost soldiers, which is scary!
Fortunately, General Satos prepared for the rainy day and took the lead in transporting the forbidden magic stone statue to the front line, otherwise it would be a big trouble! "
Amda Laurent was sitting in the reception room of the Viscount's Mansion in the North Sea Forest at this moment, toasting and chatting with Jincheng next to him.
The wine in their hands is pure grain wine, exuding a mellow and charming aroma.
However, in this world, there are still many people who have not yet solved the problem of food and clothing, while others have endless surplus food.
In such an era, status is particularly important.
Once you become a noble, it means you have all kinds of resources and connections.
With these networks as support, people will naturally establish connections and engage in social activities.
Jin Cheng, who joined the aristocratic system, also had to exchange resources and connections with other aristocrats.
