One Piece: Conquer the World

Jiang Fan got Robin as he wished, and took her back to the palace the next day. All the concubines got used to it and welcomed Robin's arrival.

The women in Jiang Fan's harem now include Ororo, Reiju, Maya, Raven, Cornis, Lanqi, Kalifa, Perona, and Robin. These nine beauties are all beautiful and beautiful. Extraordinary, any man would feel extremely satisfied if he could have one of them as his wife, but Jiang Fan could have it all to himself. He was truly blessed. However, only Jiang Fan's status and ability can keep so many beauties in peace and ensure the harmony of the harem.

One day, Jiang Fan had a sudden idea and found a batch of fine fabrics, and asked a tailor to sew a batch of women's clothing similar to ancient Hanfu according to the drawings he drew, and gave one to each concubine.

Unexpectedly, this kind of gorgeous and beautiful clothes captured the hearts of women all of a sudden. They felt like a treasure and displayed it in front of Jiang Fan every day wearing their own Hanfu. It was like a hundred flowers blooming, each one so gorgeous.

Jiang Fan also felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw his beloved concubines in the palace who were like gods. He also designed a lot of dresses based on the looks in his memory, which made all the girls happy and gave him a lot of sweet kisses one after another.

These unique costumes soon became popular in the palace, and even the maids imitated them. Leijiu and the others also joked with Jiang Fan about this matter, saying that he shouldn't be an emperor. If he became a fashion designer, he would definitely be able to lead the fashion trend.

"From now on, the king will not go to court early. It seems that it is not bad to be a faint king properly." Jiang Fan thought in his heart as he admired the palace, which became more and more like a civilized ancient country.

There is no clear hierarchy among the concubines. They all refer to each other as sisters. Occasionally, if something happens, it will be handled by the oldest ones, Ororo and Reiju. After Robin arrived here, he quickly became friends with all the girls.

Jiang Fan is also often worried that there are too many women in the palace, and he himself cannot be in the palace at any time. Over time, trouble will inevitably arise. He has always adhered to the principle of equal exposure to rain and dew, not favoring anyone in particular, and trying his best to not favor anyone. Ignore. In addition, his inner network was observing every corner of the palace from time to time and found nothing unusual. The girls had always treated each other with respect, which was inseparable from Jiang Fan's foresight.

Seeing the happy faces of the girls, Jiang Fan thought of Ain who was far away in the new world. He didn't know how she was doing now or how she felt after hearing the news about him. But now Jiang Fan is no longer the young boy he was before. He has gained confidence in everything he does, and his feelings for Ain have become bolder. If there is a chance to meet in the future, it would not be a bad idea to take her in.

Jiang Fan thought of Ain's slender figure. He didn't know how charming he would be if he wore the palace clothes he designed. Every time he thought about it, he felt mesmerized.

However, although Robin became Jiang Fan's woman, she still did not reveal the whereabouts of Hades to Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan knew that it was difficult to change a person's ideas, so he no longer forced it. Anyway, Pluto's design drawings were already in his hands, and Rhodes had been studying those formulas attentively. Sooner or later, Pluto would be restored by the Kingdom of Hua.

The Shasha Fruit obtained from Crocodile has been given to Flint of the Army. His physical skills and domineering skills far exceed Crocodile. Coupled with this natural ability, he will definitely be a general-level warrior in the future. force. Most of the thirty-five elders who followed Jiang Fan at the beginning became ability users and became the high-level combat force of the Kingdom of Hua.

The senior agents of Baroque Works were also separated by Jiang Fan, and the few ability users he was optimistic about were incorporated into the Royal Forest Army and received key training. As for Miss. Golden Week Marian, Jiang Fan was appointed as the royal painter in the palace. It’s not that Jiang Fan has any thoughts about this little lolita, but he just hopes that she can improve her painting skills and color suggestion ability. I will talk about it in the future. It might come in handy.

Several people at Baroque Works have very good abilities, especially Mr. 5 Jim's explosive fruit ability, which Jiang Fan attaches great importance to, because if this ability is developed to a certain extent, it will definitely be very terrifying.

As the name suggests, the ability of the explosive fruit can make any part of the user's body explode, even popping boogers. Blowing air from the mouth can also explode, which is equivalent to the whole body being filled with explosives, and its destructive power even exceeds that of ordinary people. of natural fruits.

According to Jiang Fan's idea, the upper limit of this ability is really unlimited. Explosive substances should not be limited to gunpowder. If you open your mind, you can also develop nuclear explosions, supernova explosions, star explosions... This is to What a crazy rhythm!

However, this Jem really wasted such a good ability. His physical skills and understanding can only be said to be average. The explosive fruit became a joke in his hands, and he only developed simple tricks such as booger bombs. , the power is probably not as good as a better artillery shell. Jim's combat effectiveness is also at the bottom among the senior agents of Baroque Works. In the comics, he was easily defeated by Luffy and Zoro who had just entered the Grand Line.

When Jiang Fan in his previous life was reading comics, he felt very sorry for the god-level abilities such as the Explosive Fruit and the Slow Fruit that were wasted by ability users. In order to confirm his theory and give the Kingdom of Hua another powerful fighting force, he decided to Jim naturally became Jiang Fan's focus. Jiang Fan often took time to supervise his physical training in the gravity field, and also gave him guidance on many fruit development directions.

With these conditions, Jem's strength naturally increased day by day. He did not expect that he would be so valued by Jiang Fan. He was so moved that tears filled his eyes, and he actually had the consciousness that a man who knows his friends will die for himself.

……

On this day, Jiang Fan was discussing matters with the ministers. Finance Minister Hank was the first to come out and remonstrate: "Your Majesty, the water canal built in Alabasta has connected the two cities, and the people there are very grateful to your Majesty for your kindness. , but this project is too expensive. It is estimated that when it is completed, it will need to use at least half of the treasury. Is this really worth it?"

"Your Majesty, our country of Hua has just been founded, and its foundation is not very stable. It is not a long-term solution to waste national power like this. We don't care about the suffering of the people. It is enough to provide them with drinking water through rainfall. They have been doing this all these years. Although building the canal can be done once and for all, it really shouldn't be such a waste of time and money."

Gan Fore, Kulik and others had obviously already discussed this with Hank, and they all stood up to advise him.

After all, Jiang Fan had been exempted from domestic taxes for three years, and the national treasury's income relied entirely on the seizures from the annexation of several countries and regions, as well as the large amount of gold previously removed from the Ark's Proverbs, which was originally quite sufficient. However, after recently accepting 100,000 people from Alabasta into the army, financial expenditures have increased significantly, and they can no longer make ends meet. Jiang Fan really can no longer let Jiang Fan continue to "play nonsense" like this.

Environment Minister Kosha moved his mouth to say something, but did not say it. After all, the opinions of several people were well-founded and difficult to refute, and he was from Alabasta. In this case, he also needed to avoid suspicion appropriately. Can wait for Jiang Fan's decision.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fan suddenly smiled heartily: "Look at what you said is so serious, isn't it just a lack of money? I have already thought about this. As long as we open a few banks, won't we have money?"

"Bank? What is a bank? Are there silver mines that can be mined in our country?"

The ministers all looked very curious when they heard the word bank for the first time.

There is no financial institution similar to a bank in the world of pirates, because it is possible to be robbed by pirates at any time on the sea. The sea with countless powerful people is full of dangers, and no force has the courage to do so. Even the world government, which nominally controls the world, did not expect this to happen.

There are also some syndicates that issue loan sharks in the underground world, but the patterns of loan sharks and banks can be said to be very different. The real power of banks lies in concentrating wealth to do big things, while the pattern of loan sharks lies in simply borrowing money to grab interest...

Jiang Fan patiently explained to them the operation and profit methods of modern banks in detail, which attracted cheers from everyone.

"Your Majesty! This is really a genius idea. The bank... can undoubtedly absorb a large amount of private funds. With our current prestige, the people will definitely trust us!"

Banks are built on credit, and what the Hua Zhiguo government lacks most now is credit and prestige. If the institution mentioned by Jiang Fan is really realized, the entire Hua Zhiguo will surely become more prosperous and powerful than ever before!

Soon the first Xinghua Bank in the Kingdom of Hua was established in Yanhuang City, the capital. After a series of publicity and promotion, it quickly became popular among the public.

The emergence of Xinghua Bank is equivalent to giving the weak a safe place to store their wealth. As long as the country of Hua does not collapse, their money will not be lost, and there will be a good interest rate. What reason is there not to save money?

In less than three days, there were more than 100,000 depositors in Yanhuang City, most of them from wealthy families, and the total amount of deposits exceeded 50 billion beli!

Having tasted the sweetness, Hank also fully supported the banking industry. Banks were opened in several other important towns in the Kingdom of Hua, such as Hanabar, Water City, Santa Pobla, Puke, and Sanfalud, and the gains were very fruitful. considerable.

With such a large amount of wealth, there is no need to worry about the cost of the canal project. At the same time, several railways connecting various places are also being constructed intensively. Jiang Fan also specifically asked banks to open up more loan businesses, encouraged the rise of private industry and commerce, and developed the economy at the fastest speed. The country of Hua was prosperous.

Factories and workshops were built one after another everywhere. Jiang Fan promptly withdrew from various commercial and tax laws. Although taxation seemed more complicated than other countries, the protection of the interests of businessmen was also real.

Now that he came to this world and became the emperor of a country, he vowed to risk the dignity of the earth's civilization to build this country into at least the strongest empire.
