"To put it simply, it means transforming all the places I just mentioned into tourist destinations."
"It is to open all these beautiful views around Cairo to the world for people to see."
"Not only the people of Holy Egypt, but also visitors from foreign lands or guests from nearby villages who come to Cairo."
"However, if you want to enter these tourist places for closing, you need to pay a fee."
“Even if it’s the tribute for visiting these miracles, there are still the costs and extra expenses for maintaining these miracles.”
"Aren't these assets an additional income for Saint Egypt?"
Kamul's eyes gradually brightened when he heard this.
The old minister opened his eyes wide and exclaimed: "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh's strategy is truly divine wisdom!"
"Using your miracles to attract foreign donations will not only increase the income of Holy Egypt, but also spread the reputation of Holy Pharaoh far and wide!"
"This method of gathering wealth is far better than conquering ponds and plundering land!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is not even one ten-thousandth as wise as you, old minister!"
Kamul said this and bowed to His Majesty the Pharaoh once more.
And Remheb behind Kamul was listening intently, his expression was even more exaggerated than Kamul's.
After Kamul lowered his body, he immediately made the same move.
But Lin Ke just asked him to stand up. He wanted to hear what the old prime minister thought of Lin Ke's method.
Kamul thought for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"The miracles you created are so sacred and great that the people of Holy Egypt only dare to watch from afar and never dare to approach."
"They are only afraid that their lowly status and filthy bodies will defile the miracle you created."
"I am worried that the people of Holy Egypt may not dare to enter your miracle."
When Lin Ke heard Kamul's words, he just shook his head slightly.
Obviously, Lin Ke did not agree with what Kamul said.
"Kamul."
"Do you remember Egypt before?"
"At that time, our people knelt on the dry and cracked ridges of the fields, praying to the gods for nothing more than rain and a handful of wheat to survive."
Kamul nodded when he heard this and said, "Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, I remember it very clearly."
"At that time, there was famine in the capital, and corpses were everywhere."
Lin Ke turned around and pointed to the present-day Cairo city: "Look, nowadays, women in the market will choose colored glaze amulets for their daughters."
“Artisans would gather in taverns after work to argue about which temple had the finest reliefs and stone sculptures.”
"Even the most ordinary farmers would spend a few more coppers to buy better tasting food during the harvest festival."
Kamul blinked a few times and bent over to listen carefully.
Lin Ke walked slowly towards the old prime minister and stood beside him: "These are not luxuries, Kamul."
"When our people no longer have to worry about their next meal, they will begin to crave something higher."
"A desire for beauty, a desire for knowledge, a desire for things that can make life more meaningful."
Kamul's eyes trembled slightly at this time, and Lin Ke's point of view shocked his heart again.
At this time, Lin Ke stopped in front of Kamul and looked into Kamul's eyes: "Our granaries are indeed not as full as before the war, but every citizen of Holy Egypt can have enough food and clothing."
"So what are they going to pursue next?"
"Or, what will they do?"
Kamul shook his head slightly, while Remheb was so engrossed in listening that he didn't even blink.
So, Lin Ke continued: "A mother would want her child to learn to write hieroglyphics, a businessman would be willing to pay to listen to wise men tell stories from far away, and a farmer might save up just to take his family to see these wonders."
"These demands of the people of Holy Egypt are the direction in which Holy Egypt needs to develop in the future."
“I want our wonders to not only shine in the sun, but also shine into the hearts of every citizen.”
"I want them to know that these wonders also belong to every citizen of Holy Egypt."
“This is not only to enrich the national treasury, but also to let the people know that what they are fighting for is a civilization that they should be proud of.”
When Lin Ke said this, he had clearly seen Kamul and Remheb's eyes tremble slightly.
But he just continued: "Think about it, Kamul."
“When our people stand on the summit of the [Pyramids] and look out over the Nile.”
“When foreign envoys marveled at the wonders of the Hanging Gardens.”
“When the son of an ordinary craftsman aspires to become an architect after visiting the [Word in the Sky], this is the true power of the civilization of Holy Egypt.”
"It is also Holy Egypt, after all, that is the direction we are heading to."
"Otherwise, wouldn't these wonders be useless except for showing the greatness that the Holy Pharaoh must have?"
After hearing Lin Ke's words, Kamul was shocked and tears welled up in the corners of his wrinkled eyes.
He knelt on the ground tremblingly, his forehead pressed against the sand: "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh has a far-sighted vision and a broad mind. This is a wisdom that I, an old minister, will never be able to learn in several lifetimes!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh cares about the people and can see even the slightest changes. I will do it right away and will not let you down!"
Just as Kamul was about to stand up, Remheb, who was standing behind him, suddenly felt his knees weaken and he knelt down heavily.
His knee hit the sand with a dull "bang".
