Chapter 630 The formation of a top wealthy family - a new type of business family
On the luxurious dining table filled with delicious food, Blainey was talking incessantly about her insights and teachings on the future development path of the family.
She spoke fluently, sharply and confidently, as if the whole world should operate as she imagined.
As expected, after years of meticulous management and strategic planning, Conson Castle has now successfully risen and become the most dazzling existence among the top aristocrats.
His status and strength are beyond the reach of many other nobles. However, in the face of such brilliant achievements, Blaney is not satisfied with the status quo, but looks to the longer-term future.
She knew that in order to maintain this advantageous position for a long time and further consolidate and expand the family's sphere of influence, she had to continue to maintain a close alliance with the equally powerful and influential Sheldon Castle. Only through mutual support and cooperation could they remain invincible in the ever-changing political arena.
In addition, Blainey also emphasized the importance of family education. She believed that the education of family members, especially the younger generation, should be extremely strict, and no indulgence or laziness should be allowed. Any dandy behavior is absolutely intolerable, because it not only concerns personal honor and disgrace, but also directly affects the reputation and image of the entire family.
Fortunately, the current Conson Castle has the mysterious Magic Island as a solid backing, and even the almighty King has to show it some courtesy.
With this unique advantage, the family will not easily decline in the short term. But Blaney understands that things are unpredictable, and only by planning ahead and being proactive can the family be ensured to prosper and enjoy wealth forever.
"Third sister, you are right! It is time for our family to do something. When the world is pacified, it will be the day for us to obtain the top title. So, we must start planning a way of survival for our descendants..." At this time, another family member echoed, and everyone nodded in agreement. For a moment, the dining room was filled with an atmosphere of confidence and ambition.
Blainey nodded slightly: "Since that vixen took command, she has been like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, soaring into the sky. If the battle of Zhennan City can be won with a great victory, her prestige will be unparalleled in the world, and she will be called a military genius that is rare in a century. Especially since her family is financially strong, she will surely become an unprecedented famous family..."
The father nodded and said, "Of course, the rules for the future have been set. Our family is so glorious thanks to Blainey's plan. You will be even more brilliant as the national teacher."
Blaney smiled and said: "Although we are the head of the new nobles, we cannot restore the old system. We have reached the highest level and cannot have any unreasonable expectations. First, we cannot overthrow the royal family, and second, we must not exploit the common people. We must firmly safeguard the new policies, provide the common people with a ladder to move up, and make the world prosperous and wealthy. Going back to the old system means being the enemy of the common people and the royal family. This kind of wealth and honor cannot last long~~".
After some discussion and careful consideration, the family finally formulated a series of new rules under Blaney's patient persuasion. The most important one was:
Once the land was distributed to the commoners, it would never be taken back. Not only that, the buying and selling of land was also prohibited, and the knights under his command were strongly encouraged to strictly abide by this new policy.
The reason why Blaney spared no effort to persuade family members to support these new regulations was naturally out of his deep concern about possible corruption in the family.
She knew that if the family continued to rely on the cruel exploitation of the common people to gain wealth, it would eventually decline. Therefore, she tirelessly and earnestly explained her views to everyone, urging the family to abandon the old model and turn to legitimate business operations to achieve wealth, because only in this way can the long-term development and prosperity of the family be ensured.
In fact, the series of new policies jointly announced and implemented by Blainey and Tan Aili have already vaguely revealed some of the embryonic forms of capitalism.
You know, the advanced technology and abundant means of production controlled by these two big families are extremely powerful, and they simply disdain the insignificant wealth in the hands of ordinary people.
On the contrary, they are more keen to give ordinary people a certain degree of stable property, so as to stimulate the vitality of the consumer market. After all, only when ordinary people have sufficient purchasing power can the luxury goods industry flourish.
From this perspective, the new policies they carefully designed and implemented are ultimately just a strategy based on commercial interests.
Blainey stayed at home with her son to have some quiet time, reading the official documents her father gave her, which recorded the national events that happened every month.
Hundreds of nobles were given surnames, and most of them were generals under Tan Aili. About thirty-seven people gave up their surnames and joined the Sheld family.
Their fief was awarded by Tan Aili, and they were given the privilege of building a village outside Sheldon Castle.
I remember the last time we hunted down the church armed forces and eliminated the rebellious viscount. These places are in urgent need of construction, so it is more than enough to give them to the generals of the strange Sheldon Castle.
So Blaney understood at a glance that this time, many generals of commoner origin were awarded medals for their meritorious service. They fought with their lives, which was equivalent to snatching fame and fortune from the old nobles, so their success could stabilize the imperial power.
The old nobles were thus weakened, and the Sheldon forces were determined to ensure that the royal power was unimpeded and promote reforms...
These newly established surnames helped Blaney understand many things in the country. The country was undergoing a renewal, the new policies were being implemented smoothly, and civilians were beginning to be able to obtain their own wealth and freedom through hard work.
"That's pretty good. After the vixen killed several nobles, it turned out to be effective. Laogui had to act according to the policy. These guys really need to be dealt with by force."
Then I continued to read the memorial written by Tan Aili published in the court. The writing was brilliant and inspiring, and it was very enjoyable to read.
The general idea was that the enemy's food and grass were destroyed, so Tok led his troops to rush 200 miles and attack the enemy's border in the enemy's territory, catching the enemy off guard. He also set fire to the granary and slaughtered more than 40,000 border residents, forming an offensive posture.
As a result, the army of one million people was put in a passive position. Because of the huge risk of running out of food, they had to withdraw. So Tan Aili personally led the mountain division to chase the enemy...
It is not important to win a battle. When the mountain division recaptured the second line of defense, it reported to the court for supplies and heavy cavalry. At this time, it was already preparing to attack the Principality of Maya and solve the border problem once and for all.
It can be seen that Tan Aili is not only sure of winning, but also confident of destroying the entire alliance, and has already started to prepare for a rainy day. There is no need to worry about domestic unrest. Prioritize solving external forces...
Speaking of which, Tan Aili had very strong military talent. The church’s armed forces had suffered a huge blow and were no longer a concern, so she went directly to open up the southern border.
