Farming in Pirate World

It is impossible to ascend the throne and become a king in this life.

It seems that only doing business can support the family.

Let Li Ming become king?He thinks he is not this material!

Governing a country cannot rely solely on faith, it is useless.

Even though Kobra appears to be quite useless now, before the Sand Crocodile appeared, he was known as a wise king.

Even now, after the rebellion has lasted for three years and "miracles" continue to appear, most people still choose to believe in the king.

This is his "good result".

It is true that governing a country cannot rely solely on "goodness", but in the eyes of the common people, a kind king is a good king.

The reality is that to govern a country, there must be an "evil" side.

Of course, for this kind of thing, we cannot use simple "good" and "evil" to distinguish. A more appropriate term is "reward" and "punishment."

Obviously, Kobra only has "rewards" and no "punishments".

Thinking of this, Li Ming patted Cobra on the shoulder and said happily:

"Since you have this heart, there are more solutions to the problem."

"What...what solution?"

Kobra was a little confused. Why did he always feel that God was talking nonsense?

Maybe this is the way the gods speak.

"The core of Alabasta's current problem is how to deal with the Dawn Cult."

"The Cult of Dawn has developed so far that it has become too big to lose its tail. It is a cancer-like existence for Alabasta."

Even if the Dawn Religion "belongs" to him, what Li Ming said is an indisputable fact.

Perhaps from the very beginning, the establishment of Dawn Divine Cult was accidental, and the original intention of the founder was also good - to obtain rainwater and worship the gods.

But now, the Dawn Cult has become an extremely close-knit group.

But the Dawn Cult is not a political power!For a country, the emergence of such an organization is not only not a good thing, but a real bad thing.

Once this organization exerts its power and government orders cannot be implemented, the country will become a puppet in name only. This is a signal of destruction for a centralized country.

In a centralized country, the only one that can represent all citizens is the government!

Therefore, the Dawn Cult must be disbanded, otherwise, the state power will be empty talk, and the so-called "holy war" will happen again.

"Beliefs make people paranoid. No matter which country's history, paranoid people will not end well."

"But if you have the courage to give up the country, things will be much easier to handle."

In fact, it is very simple, just let the church and the state integrate.

After leading Cobra to the conference room of the palace, Li Ming sat with him looking at each other.

Li Ming's expression was extremely serious, because what he said next might be related to the future destiny of this country.

"Before that, let me ask you again, are you sure you are determined to give up the position of king?"

"have!"

Kobra looked solemn, and his decision was obviously made after careful consideration.

"OK."

Li Ming nodded. This was an extremely important matter, so he needed to confirm it again and again.

"What I'm going to say next may shock your perspective. You must think carefully and then give me your answer!"

"Um."

Kobra rubbed his palms nervously.

"According to my opinion, the Dawn Cult is already at a stage where it is too big to lose."

"At this stage of development, even if the rain stops, the Dawn Cult will not disband. Instead, the reaction of the believers will become more intense."

Cobra nodded, somewhat agreeing with Li Ming's words.

"In this case, then don't disband the Dawn Cult. The two of us will cooperate to integrate the country and the church!"

"Integrate?"

Cobra's eyes widened. How could these two completely different things be fused together?

"To put it simply, it is the divine right of kings!"

"I am not the material to govern the country, and neither are the people under me."

"So, you still have to control the country of Alabasta."

"But you, or rather the king's throne, are under my control."

Cobra thought carefully for a long time and finally understood what Li Ming meant:

"You mean to say that I lead the entire Kingdom of Alabasta to join the Dawn Cult, and my position is below you, under one god and above ten thousand people?"

"That's pretty much what it means."

Li Ming nodded.

"However, this alone cannot solve the fundamental problem of Dawn God Cult."

The problem with the Dawn Cult is that believers are in an overly paranoid state due to issues of faith. If this state is not resolved, even if the entire kingdom joins it, it will not help at all.

"You're right, but this is just the first step in dealing with the problem."

"That's the first step to reunifying this country."

“The next second step is the solution to the problem.”

As he spoke, Li Ming pulled out a legal book from the bookshelf in the conference room and waved to Cobra.

"The second step is to change the doctrine!"

"Change the doctrine?"

Cobra suddenly realized.

"Yes, since believers think I am their god, then it is me they believe in!"

"I should decide the doctrine of the Dawn God Sect!"

"The Dawn Cult has reached this situation because of its rough and crazy way of development and because there is no one to guide it correctly."

"But if I personally come forward and provide correct doctrinal guidance, the church will not only not become a cancer, but will become an effective means to increase the cohesion of the masses."

Highly recommended, it’s really good and worth installing. After all, there are many sources of books, complete books, and fast updates!

Kobra nodded, this plan is indeed feasible.

"This is indeed a good idea, but how should the doctrine be changed specifically?"

The integration of faith and country is like a big girl sitting in a sedan chair in the world of pirates - for the first time, there is no experience at all.

"Doctrine should be changed by existing laws."

"Don't worry about this. I will sort it out for you within three days. Then you can take a look and see if there is anything inappropriate."

Kobra nodded without any further excuses.

This doctrine was, in a sense, the future legal and moral standards of this country, and he really needed to look at it.

"Of course, this is only the part I need to be responsible for. There are many other tasks that require your efforts."

"After all, my name is only more effective among believers. Others still need you to deal with it."

"Furthermore, in the process of merging two giant organizations, various problems will inevitably arise. If you encounter any that cannot be solved, you can come to me."

Li Ming is not bragging about himself. Although he has never governed a country, he knows more political forms than Kobra, which should be helpful.

Kobra nodded, and the two discussed some details before choosing to split up.

And Li Ming was not idle, he opened it immediately, and then compiled new teachings based on the country's original laws.
