Age is blunt.

The average age of the first batch of leftover children was twelve years old. Now two years have passed, and the average age is about fourteen years old. Li Mu is considered to be older and he is much taller than his peers. In addition, his temperament is stable and his clothes It's more mature, so it looks older than it really is.

In order to make her look more mature in the past two years, Li Mu has been shaving, although she has no fluff on her face.

Over the past two years, it has been somewhat effective. At least Li Mu's beard now has a certain scale, and it is still a beard that can take care of the shape, which makes Li Mu look a lot mature.

It is a pity that even if all the conditions are added up, Li Mu does not seem to be under 20 years old, so standing in a group of old men, Li Mu is indeed too young.

Karakava does not yet know how big the Steed Group is, so Karakava I naturally ignored Li Mu and talked to Benjamin beside Li Mu.

Benjamin snickered as Karakava went away.

"Funny?" Li Mu was dissatisfied.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing. Once again being ignored by people gorgeously, there must be an error in the design of people.

"No, I just look forward to the expression of Her Majesty when he really knows you." Benjamin was fairly frank.

"Rest assured, there is no plot of dog blood pretending to be a face." Li Mu disdain.

Pretend!

Hehe, although I like it, I will overdo it if I accidentally care about it.

On the way back to the beach camp, Benjamin and Li Mu talked about Caracava I again.

"Speaking of which, His Majesty the King is also very hard. He is the cousin of the previous King. He first watched his nephew become the King, then lost in the competition with outsiders, and finally won by This woman is the king, so do n’t mind, he does n’t know anyone else, otherwise he wo n’t mix up until now. ”Benjamin didn't like Caracawa I much.

"It's also a king anyway--" Li Mu not underestimated Caracava I, and being a king fully demonstrated that Caracava I had this ability.

"What do you want to do next?" Benjamin was curious, and supervising Li Mu to complete the task was also part of Benjamin's work.

"Next is the stage for businessmen. What is the difference between the imperial system and the republic system in which the king must rely on elections?" Li Mu was silent. The emperors are all three thousand harems, countless dragons and grandsons, and the Kingdom of Hawaii. Not only do the kings have no children, they actually do not get married, it is too hard.

"It sounds the same, but it always violates some people's interests." Benjamin knew that people's hearts were unpredictable.

"Hehe, nothing offends and does not offend. Compared with the imperial system, the republican system is equivalent to expanding the participation in the game and will provide more people with the opportunity to become rulers. Do you say that the chiefs of the Congress will agree or disagree? "-Li Mu sees it more thoroughly. During this period, Chen Guofang and theirs have proved that the republic is the so-called hope, so no matter how many children Caracawa I had, his children are estimated to have no chance of succession.

What followed was indeed the stage for businessmen. At the first cabinet meeting after Caracava I ascended the throne, Minister of Commerce Stanley Dewey proposed amendments to the constitution.

It is normal to amend the constitution. Before Karakava I came to power, he promised to amend the constitution to restrict the power in the hands of the king and give more power to the people. At the same time, he strengthened the status of the legislative assembly and the Supreme Court, and gradually brought the jurisdiction of the rifle team. Power was taken back from the Americans.

Don't be surprised, Karakava I did promise to gradually regain the jurisdiction of the rifle team, but even so, Benjamin still supported Karakava I's election for king.

Promise—especially the promises of politicians. In a sense, it ’s not even a fart. The agreement reached in black and white between countries may still be torn down, and there is no guarantee for the promises made during the election.

if you serious you lose.

Karakava I was not prepared to amend the constitution now. Strictly speaking, the constitution amendment is a matter for the legislative assembly and has nothing to do with Karakava I himself.

Caracava I's request was to build a new palace, just opposite "Ale Oleni Hiller".

Building a palace requires money, and the Kingdom of Hawaii does not even collect business taxes, so the Kingdom of Hawaii has no money. Therefore, the first thing after Karakava I ascended the throne was not to amend the constitution, but to increase taxes.

That ’s right, it ’s a tax increase. It ’s difficult to move without money. Not to mention the construction of a new palace. Even the ministers ’salaries cannot be paid. There is no way to talk about regaining the jurisdiction of the rifle team.

"Tax increase-think twice, this will be opposed by all merchants in the kingdom." Stanley Dewey suggested.

Stanley Dewey was an American, and coincidentally, Stanley Dewey was also a member of the Episcopal Church of the United States, so Stanley Dewey was able to serve as the Minister of Commerce of the Kingdom of Hawaii.

"But what if there is no tax increase? The Kingdom Treasury is clean and there is no penny in the account. If there is no tax increase, not only the salaries of the ministers and gentlemen cannot be paid, the rifle team cannot be maintained, and the city construction will be impossible to talk about. From now on, we ca n’t stay in this embarrassment all the time. ”Caracava I, who just ascended the throne, is still a bit ambitious and unwilling to be restrained by the Americans.

Regarding the taxation of the Kingdom of Hawaii, this is definitely a big pit that the Americans dug for the government of the Kingdom of Hawaii.

The Kingdom of Hawaii was established with the support of American missionaries and businessmen. Speaking of which, we must acknowledge that the Chinese really have no ambitions. We must know that the Chinese came to Hawaii earlier than white Westerners, but the Chinese never helped the Hawaiians establish their own kingdom. The Chinese are simply doing business and have no other attempts.

Americans are different. With the support of Americans, Hawaii established a kingdom, but at the same time Americans also dug a big hole for the Hawaiian government, which is Hawaii's tax exemption policy.

Businessmen do business in Hawaii and do not need to pay taxes to the Hawaiian government. In order to ensure that the government can operate, Americans contracted the port expansion project of Honolulu and helped the Hawaiian government set up a firearms team. Those businessmen even helped the Kingdom of Hawaii to Government employees are paid.

Everything seems harmonious, but when the King of Hawaii wants to do something, the King will sadly find that he can't do anything without the help of the Americans.

"Your Majesty, you still have to be careful about tax collection. You have just gotten to the throne. Even if you want to do something, it's best to wait for a while before setting out. It is so radical now that it is not good for your rule." Legislation The speaker of the parliament, also an Anglican bishop, Fern Jerome, also advised Caracahua I not to be too aggressive.

"Oh, cautious-everyone, will the situation get better after a while? In fact, we all know the answer, the answer is no, maybe it will get worse." Caracava I was helpless.

The kings of the kingdom are not stupid. At least starting with Kamehameha II, the kings of all ages wanted to increase taxes, but they could not pass it. Even during Kamehameha V, Chinese merchants who had to pay taxes Because Chen Guofang's efforts no longer pay taxes, the Kingdom of Hawaii completely lost all income and had to live on land sales.

However, the land of the Kingdom of Hawaii is like this, and there are volcanoes everywhere. In the era when the tourism industry has not been developed, it can hardly afford any price. Therefore, the kings of the Kingdom of Hawaii are really hard-working. Starve the mouse.

After listening to Caracava I, Stanley Dewey and Fern Jerome fell into silence at the same time. Regarding this, Dewey and Jerome agreed with Caracava I. It is indeed impossible to get better. It could only be worse.

"Everyone, we all know the fact that if we want to ensure the stability of the country and the rights in your hands, we need a strong central government so that we can better protect your interests, so what are you hesitating to collect taxes? It will indeed have a certain impact on the country, but the benefits are more. At least we can do something so that we will not be restrained everywhere. "Caracava I said sincerely and sincerely hoped that members of the cabinet would support his decision .

The cabinet ministers who participated in the meeting did not continue, they did not even want to touch the sight of Kalakaua, and they did not discuss each other intently. They all looked down at their thoughts.

"That being the case, let's enter the voting session." Chief Justice Robin Chapman clapped.

This vote is not a vote by show of hands, but a secret ballot.

Karakava I filled up his ballots early, and then he began to look for supporters with hope.

Everyone filled it up quickly, with Robin Chapman singing the ticket and Fern Jerome recording.

"No!"

"No !!!!"

"Oppose--"

A series of objections came out, and Caracava I's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot.

Definitely black. Except for one vote of Caracava I, everyone has filled out a negative vote. No one agrees with the opinion of the king of Caracava I, even the tribal chiefs of the Hawaiian kingdom.

"Sorry, Your Majesty, this proposal is not approved, and we are now on the second issue-" Robin Chapman, without delay, left all the votes aside after singing, just like throwing garbage in hand.

This is really embarrassing, more than ten thousand times more than Li Mu's embarrassment at the coronation ceremony. Anyway, Caracava I was also the elected king. It was unexpected that no one in the cabinet supported it.

There is nothing unexpected, but it is only an unexpected thing. If the cabinet ministers here only rely on the dead salary given by the king, they will not be able to support their own family. Therefore, the cabinet ministers also have business. Strictly speaking They are also businessmen.

Caracava I wanted to raise taxes for everyone, and cabinet ministers also paid taxes, so it is no wonder that some people support Caracava I.
