The Lord Who Wants to Be Emperor

Aslan glanced around, Duke Medea avoided subconsciously, she didn't want to do such thankless things.

Anyway, if you left Aslan for too long, just don't get involved with her.

In the end, Aslan could only turn his gaze to Ashley and Diego and his wife.

As the person in charge of the Valkyrie, Ashley still understands intelligence work, plus the couple's combat effectiveness is also good, so she has more than enough self-preservation.

"Ashley will leave it to you, Diego will assist you in the whole process." Aslan said.

"Yes! Guarantee to complete the task." Ashley said in surprise.

The Valkyrie troops are now in charge of intelligence and security work in the empire. They are already very experienced in this area, and of course they are a little bit worse than Vlada and Mrs. Sharon.

"Very good!" Aslan nodded in satisfaction, just about to speak.

Nuomili said: "Your Majesty, the war on the East Asian subcontinent is imminent. When will your volunteers leave?"

Aslan touched his nose awkwardly, and looked at Ager Shiwen on the other side.

Age Zhiwen quickly said: "The army has been prepared, but the number of empty boats is limited, and we can't make it fast if we want to."

Nuomili said with dissatisfaction: "The weapons and equipment are too slow, and we need to equip ourselves, otherwise you can let Age Zhiwen go and sit down in person!"

After hearing Age Zhiwen's face, his face turned green.

The Yadong subcontinent is the back garden of the Maxim Empire. There are also a few strong masters at the mentor-level. It was difficult to guarantee that he would not be beheaded at this moment in the past. Don't doubt the moral bottom line between countries.

Naturally, Aslan would not agree. Aggivan was not as good as Gawain and Arthur in combat, but no one could match him in the logistics deployment of the army.

The logistics system of the Melox Empire is being established, and many places are inseparable from him.

"The light weapons and equipment come with it, let's go!" Aslan said hastily, he naturally heard Nomiri's real plan, and quickly agreed.

Hearing that Aslan's light weapons came with him, he nodded in satisfaction.

Altria blinked and looked at Aslan.

Aslan nodded with a guilty conscience.

"Daughter-in-law, what weapons and equipment do you want, speak as soon as possible, and I will try my best to satisfy you."

Altria's eyes narrowed slightly with a smile, shook her head and said, "Not yet."

"It doesn't matter, I will prioritize scheduling to meet you if necessary."

Elitelina also looked at Aslan and made a few mouth gestures to him. Aslan nodded quickly to express support.

Her request is very simple, that is, she wants Aslan to accompany her well these days and nights.

The meeting ended successfully, but when Aslan was about to leave, Wilshin grabbed Aslan.

"Your Majesty, are the goods going to the Holy Breta Empire still satisfactory this time?"

Aslan nodded and said: "Very satisfied, the other is the various types of freighters, compared with the empire's active freighter types are much more complete, and the performance is better."

"That's great, Your Majesty, the Empire is now preparing to build a state-owned shipping company, and these freighters are just right." Wilshin said hastily.

Aslan could only smile wryly and nodded in agreement.

He couldn't spend money lavishly, and in the end, the Financial Institute had to close it, and all the things he bought would go into the royal vault!

As the construction of ports in various places became more and more perfect, sea transportation has become the cheapest cargo transportation channel in the empire.

For this purpose, Meruo City built a road directly leading to Weihai Port. In the future, the goods shipped from Meruo City will depart from Weihai Port and pass through the northern provinces and even the Ottoman Kingdom. The distance and time are more than doubled.

It can also create countless new jobs, and Wilshin will naturally not let it go. Compared with Essien, who focuses on government affairs and national infrastructure, Wilshin is thinking about how to create jobs for the empire and increase income in the empire’s economy. .

In addition to building a shipping company, Wilshin has already considered building a local tax that a merchant pays on the way of trafficking in goods, an administrative department with the nature of ‘buying road money’ or port and market ‘passage fees’ and ‘user fees’.

"You mean you want to establish a customs?" Aslan said with bright eyes.

Will Xin asked with a half-knowledge: "Your Majesty, have you considered it a long time ago."

Aslan nodded and said: "Go, go to my office, I will explain to you."

The people who had originally left heard that Aslan was preparing to establish another administrative department, and they all became interested. Except for the representatives of the military such as Ager Zhiwen, they had to leave their positions in charge, and everyone else followed them with scorn.

The establishment of a new administrative department will also be accompanied by the development trend for a period of time in the future.

Regardless of being a small department, once it is established, it will definitely hit certain industries and will be powerful for the development of certain industries.

Altria also rarely squeezed Mordred into Aslan's office. Seeing that the office was full of people, Aslan smiled bitterly and said, "I knew there were so many people, so I just said it directly in the conference room. "

"The main functions of the customs that I envision are three. The first is to supervise and manage import and export goods, passenger luggage and postal items, and inbound and outbound transportation. ."

"The second is the collection of customs duties and other taxes and fees. In addition to customs duties, the customs of many countries also collect domestic taxes and fees in the import and export process, such as value-added tax, consumption tax and oil tax. It can also levy anti-dumping duties, Countervailing duties, fines for imported goods, etc."

"The third is to investigate smuggling. The Department of Customs is investigating evasion of supervision, commercial fraud and evasion of customs duties, especially for goods and articles that are prohibited and restricted from entering and exiting the country, especially drugs, the customs has increased its investigation and seizure."

When Aslan talked about drugs, his face became more grim.

Because of the past two years, the Maxim Empire has continuously smuggled new drugs into the country.

Recently, something called Anshen smoke appeared in various parts of the empire. Anshen smoke is also called Anpian, commonly known as Dayan. It is derived from the capsule of the poppy plant and contains more than 20 alkaloids, which can be divided into phenanthrene and isoquinoline. The former is like morphine and codeine, and the latter is like papaverine.

Aslan knew that Soothing Smoke was the earth’s opium.

"The academy has given correct data. Soothing smoke is addictive. When the addiction is reached, the person will burst into tears and cannot lift his hands and feet. Even if the knife is placed in front of these addicts, they cannot be forced to put down Soothing smoke. Those who smoke soothing cigarettes for a long time shrug their shoulders and necks, their colors are withered, just like an old man who is dying of illness."

When Aslan talked about the evil of Anshen Smoke, many people's expressions changed slightly. It was obvious that they were all people who had contact with Anshen Smoke.
