One of the main tasks of the German government in the near future is to support the independence of Finland and Ukraine. According to the plan, the two countries will establish the Kingdom of Finland and the Kingdom of Ukraine. The king, on the other hand, is held concurrently by the emperor of the empire.

"Your Majesty, both the Finns and the Ukrainians have agreed that your majesty will be the king of the two countries. However, they propose that the next king can be chosen from among your heirs." Prime Minister Biluo said.

Qin Tian shook his head: "It seems that they still want to completely get rid of the control of the empire and truly achieve independence! This article clearly rejects them. Tell them that the king can only be concurrently held by the emperor in the future. The imperial family cannot Princes will be sent to serve as kings of these two countries. Of course, they can also refuse. But what that means, they should be very clear."

Qin Tian knew that if his heirs were to be the kings of Finland and Ukraine, then once a generation or two passed, the two sides would have their own divisions. In this way, Finland and Ukraine can take the opportunity to get rid of Germany's influence and truly achieve independence. European countries are fighting each other endlessly. But the royal families of various countries are often related by blood. But even so, everyone was bleeding like a river. In order to avoid this from happening, Qin Tian did not agree to the demands of the Finns and Ukrainians. As long as the kings of the two countries are always held concurrently by the imperial emperor, then these two countries will inevitably be affected by the empire.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand. I will reject the Finnish Ukrainians. I believe they will not have the guts to refuse." Prime Minister Bilo said.

Qin Tian nodded, he also believed that Bi Luo would handle these people well.

"Although we promised that the government affairs of the two countries will be handled by themselves. However, the governments of the two countries are still being formed. There are many places that need guidance from the empire. The government will send a certain number of officials to guide them! I only have One requirement, that is, the policies implemented in the two countries must be beneficial to the general public. Abolish those harsh taxes and make people's lives better and better. In the empire's trade with the two countries, they must also feel In this way, the people of the two countries will be grateful to the empire. The empire can truly use the power of these two countries. Perhaps, many years later, when the people of the two countries fully agree with the empire, they will Maybe you can take the initiative to join the empire!" Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange someone to do it." Prime Minister Bi Luo nodded. He knew what Qin Tian meant, which was to win the hearts of the people in these two countries. After gaining the approval of the people of the two countries, everything will come naturally.

In Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, in a small town called Irpin not far from here, Ukrainians are celebrating the blockade. The heavy ears of wheat have been threshed and are being dried. After drying, it can be stored in the warehouse.

Almost every Ukrainian face is filled with joy and happiness.

As Russia's main granary, Ukraine's grain plays a pivotal role in Russia. However, it is a pity that Ukraine provides Russia with a large amount of food, but the vast majority of Ukrainians can't even fill their stomachs. Many people even had to rely on wild vegetables to survive when they were green and yellow, and not a few people died of starvation every year.

Although Ukrainians are the second largest ethnic group in Russia. However, they have no status in Russia. All along, they have been oppressed and exploited by the Russians. Most of the grain they harvest every year has to be handed over to the Russian government, and they can only keep a small part.

In order to be able to change their own destiny, the Ukrainians also resisted. However, after the fierce Cossack cavalry cut off the heads of all Ukrainians who dared to resist with sabers, the remaining Ukrainians were honest and could only be exploited by the government honestly. The only thing they could look forward to was death. Then you can go to heaven. Of course, no one knows whether there is a heaven, and no one has really seen that thing. This is just a strategy used by the rulers to fool the people, just like the Chinese believe in an afterlife.

But now, the lives of Ukrainians have undergone earth-shaking changes. Those vicious Russian tax officials have left. In their place are the Ukrainian government's own tax collectors. The new taxes are also very low. Compared with the Russians who asked them to hand over most of the food to the government, the new tax only needs a small part of the food they grow. Most of the food is their own. This makes these Ukrainians even more motivated.

"God bless, the brutal tsar has finally been overthrown. Starting today, the happy life of Ukrainians will come!" An old man with a gray beard looked at the wheat he was drying, with an old face smiling like Like chrysanthemums.

"Uncle Karsi, is there anything happy? You are smiling so happily?" A middle-aged man passing by asked.

"Is there anything I'm happier than my family's harvest? This year, I don't have to go hungry." Karsi said.

"That's right! This year's taxes are also very low, so I don't have to look for wild vegetables everywhere. Uncle, I heard that His Majesty the German Emperor will soon be our king. Ukraine has not had its own country for many years." said the young man.

"No matter who is the king of Ukraine, as long as he can feed the people and not starve to death, my old man will support him and love him!" Karsi said.

Indeed, the people are simple. This is especially true for those farmers who deal with the fields. As long as they can have a bite to eat and fill their stomachs, they will be content with the status quo and be grateful.

No matter who will be their king, as long as they can do this, they will be able to win the love of the people.

The same situation is happening throughout Ukraine. The Ukrainian people who are accustomed to being exploited are very satisfied with their current life. Although everyone is still poor, they already have hope for their future life. They believe that life will get better and better in the future. Under such circumstances, there was little objection to a German Kaiser serving as their king. Even because they can live a happy life, everyone loves His Majesty the King who is far away in Berlin. If someone wants to take away their current life, they will definitely resist desperately.
