A large stack of documents was placed in front of Count Jeffreys.

He didn't even look at it. After listening to the conclusions of the two, he yawned and said, "That's it. Hang the mastermind behind the scenes and let this matter go."

The hush money has been taken in advance, and the evidence for closing the case is a joke.

It's nothing more than finding a few scapegoats so that everyone can save face.

Count Jeffreys is not so naive that he has to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Councillor Joey and Duke Harrington also remained calm, as if this was the truth.

Even though Count Jeffreys didn't even look at this stack of documents with a perfect closed loop of evidence chain, even though they spent a lot of effort to prepare it for a long time.

Sometimes, the result is not important, but there must be a process.

Seeing that the two of them were sitting there without leaving, Earl Jeffreys didn't waste time and said directly: "That's it, get ready, I'll be back in a few days."

"Really?" Councilman Joey seemed shocked and sad, and pretended to keep him: "I want you to stay a few more days."

Earl Jeffreys smiled but said nothing. If he really let himself stay a few more days, would you sleep well?

In the last few days, everything was stable, and no one wanted to make any more trouble.

When Earl Jeffreys returned to the colony across the ocean, he got an explosive news before he got off the ship.

"Your Majesty has decided to upgrade the country's name."

Lawrence couldn't wait to get on the ship, and the whole person was excited.

He and everyone else had waited for this day for too long.

"If you hadn't come back, I would have taken the ship back by myself."

Even if the battle cruiser was taken away by Earl Jeffreys, he would go back.

If you miss this kind of big event, it will be a lifetime regret.

Little Earl Jeffreys was also shocked. Fortunately, he came back, otherwise he would have missed it... He thought it was better not to think about it.

"When did it happen? Are we leaving now?"

"Of course, we will leave immediately after a simple inspection and supply."

Lawrence couldn't wait.

This is not just a nominal issue. After the establishment of the empire, the country tended to be stable, and power began to form an inherent model framework.

It is very important for everyone.

...

In the southern continent, the warm-up has already begun.

There is a flow of people into Plan City every day, and the government rehearses and hoards materials in advance.

In recent years, transportation has developed, cultural penetration has increased, and the economy has continued to develop, and the citizen class has expanded rapidly.

With the establishment of preliminary industrialization, the form of society is constantly changing.

And with Derek, who has a glimpse of the future to a certain extent, and with strong power support, the overall transition of society is smooth and efficient.

Many contradictions have been eliminated in advance before they have erupted.

Therefore, the development of the country has always been on the fast track, and the authority of the monarch is extremely huge.

Of course, under this model, once the monarch is incompetent, it will immediately cause a huge disaster.

But for the time being, this is the best structure for Derek.

However, he is not as busy as he imagined. In addition to his daily work, he has a lot of free time.

"In a huge empire, there will always be conflicts. What the monarch has to do is to maintain balance and radiate his influence to every corner at all times." Derek is teaching his son in the empty airport: "Qin, tell me how to maintain influence."

Qin, who is already nine years old, is very tall. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Justice, wisdom, and the army."

After all, he has a lot of experience and considers more than children from ordinary families.

Unfortunately, Derek shook his head and said, "Everyone has his own understanding, but I think there are two aspects... people's hearts and distance.

Whether you are fair and wise or not is not that important, as long as most people are convinced.

In addition, distance is very important. No matter how powerful the prestige is, it will be infinitely weakened with distance."

"I know, transportation can offset distance, father, right?"

"Yes, this is true for trains, cars, and ships.

Now, there are new means of transportation.

When our army can appear in every corner of the world at any time, there will naturally be people's hearts."

Derek smiled and saw a biplane propeller plane being pushed out, and soon it flew into the sky under the control of the pilot.

There is Swan Castle nearby, so not many people saw the plane.

But the roar of the plane soaring in the sky still gave the only audience a violent shock.

"The sky is the realm of the gods, and now... it is also in my territory." Derek felt proud.

Conquering the land, conquering the ocean, conquering the sky, he is leaving a permanent mark in this world.

Qin raised his head, and the young him only felt very shocked.

In his worldview that has not yet been fully formed, his understanding of divine authority has gradually been shattered.

When the realm of God is set foot by humans, God...what is there to be feared.

I have been waiting for the plane to land, and today's education class has not ended.

When I returned to Swan Castle, a half-man-high machine was placed there.

The ticking sound, coupled with the flashing signal lights, seemed very primitive.

But through translation, a complete telegram was quickly translated.

"Your Majesty, the customs of Port Degen sends you greetings. Andrew."

"Qin, say hello to your second grandfather." Derek handed the right to talk to his son.

Qin was surprised and blurted out: "Isn't the second grandfather in Digen Port?"

"Yes, this is another solution to the distance. Communication shortens all distances. When all information arrives in an instant, people will not dare to deviate."

This is a very coherent truth. In the past, the nobles were local tyrants and did whatever they wanted.

But now, what you did the day before, the monarch will know the next day, and the gods will descend within a few days.

I am afraid that few people dare to have the idea of ​​rebellion.

Of course, if the monarch's power is shaken, then no means will work.

In addition to these two, there are cables and telephones.

With the accumulation of science and technology, some practical products have begun to appear.

So Derek is confident that the future of this world belongs to him.

Qin excitedly chatted with the second grandfather for a long time. Although there was a little delay, this novel way of communication still made him feel novel and interesting.

Derrick smiled and watched. On the eve of the empire's upgrading, everything was ready.

The future of the empire is not just the southern continent.
