And I feel that handing over all the work is not conducive to our future development. We can reduce the scale of breeding, but we can also conduct more sophisticated breeding, cultivate better sheep breeds, and produce cashmere with higher economic value.

"

Hearing Bohuen's explanation, Li De happily patted his shoulder and praised him repeatedly.

"It's good that you think like this. If it weren't for the things you did, I would definitely remove you after I go back this time. Now it seems that you are the most suitable for this position."

Bohun was overjoyed and at the same time glad that he had not done anything stupid before.

This is what Li De hopes to see. Paying attention to economic interests is a good thing, but looking only at economic interests will be a bad thing.

It is not possible to give up production and engage in buying and selling entirely. At this stage, people must accept the transformation of labor production. Once people get used to making quick money, they will become lazy and even develop arrogant and lewd thoughts.

Only by taking technology as the core, truly engaging in labor production to create value, and grasping the ownership of the means of production can we truly liberate productivity. No matter where we are, Li De does not want to cultivate a group of compradors.

…

The economic matters were almost settled, and Li De had to study military issues with Lothar and Drektar again.

To be honest, sometimes Li De himself feels annoyed. What he most wants to see is that all parties in the world are developing peacefully. However, since the establishment of the Hanhai Protectorate, he has been either at war or on the way to war in these years.

No normal person likes war, but escaping war with capitulationism will not bring peace. Only by not giving up war can we use war to promote peace.

Fortunately, by reading the various intelligence compiled by Lothar, we can know that the conflict in Gilneas is only of a regional nature, and will not rise to a serious level that requires the entire alliance to take action in a short time.

"Shaman Drek'Thar, how much do you know about Saurfang?"

In Lothar's conference room, he, Drek'Thar, and Lid sat around a round table, and on the table was information about Gilneas.

Hearing Lothar ask himself this, Drek'Thar pondered for a moment.

"Saurfang was born in the Thunder King Clan, and later joined the Blackstone Clan of Blackhand. He is a rare rationalist in the tribe... There is another thing worth mentioning. He can be said to be a student of Fenris.

He has considerable military ability."

Lothar nodded.

"I have experienced that in the Battle of Hillsbrad, he blocked our army and bought time for Orgrim to move."

At this moment, Li De gently tapped the table with his fingers and said.

"Gilneas is now a major cotton-producing area. If there is trouble there, it will have a huge impact on the world's textile industry. However, this conflict also started because of cotton plantations."

As he spoke, Li De picked out a piece of paper from a pile of information.

This was a copy of a leaflet deliberately distributed by the orc army on the edge of Silverpine Forest, in which they accused Gilneas of cruel enslavement of the orcs, and repeatedly emphasized that their purpose in provoking the conflict was to rescue their suffering compatriots.

"Well, it's possible, but we have to be careful that this may be a smoke bomb spread by them."

Lothar pinched her chin and said, and at this moment Li De had a thought in his mind.

"Speaking of which, I should have pioneered the tactic of spreading leaflets, right? Saurfang has never fought against me... I have a hunch that what Gilneas faces this time may be my 'old friend'.

"
