……

Xiang's rebellion in advance this time, it can be said that the time and place are favorable, and although the army successfully captured five county seats, it was extinguished in an instant. With {dreams} little ◢.com

The people who supported the Xiang clan to raise troops were all some nobles and rangers in Chu, and even many local heroes were still hesitating and watching and did not follow suit, and there were indeed many bandits in the southeastern counties who raised troops to respond, but the scale was very small, and dozens and hundreds of people were suppressed by the local police officers before they could gather into a big trouble.

When the court ordered the troops to be dispatched, Chen Xu had already informed Chen Ping to arrange for the newspaper's reporters to accompany the army, and some news from the southeastern counties was also transmitted during the period, but Chen Xu told the newspaper to publish the news of the bandits' destruction of the local area and the looting of the money of the people in the townships, and to publicize the brutality of the rebels, so that the newspapers were circulated, and most of the people in other places understood the situation of the rebels' rebellion, and the people everywhere were not happy with the rebels' behavior, but with the anger of the same enemy. In this way, even if the other counties have evil intentions, the rebel forces of the Six Nations have become very passive and cautious, and when the southeastern counties are in chaos, the northwest, northeast, and the Central Plains are extremely stable, and basically there is not much chaos.

Using propaganda to break the fighting spirit of the rebel forces, and at the same time rallying the people's hearts, this is the great role of Daqin Metropolis Daily in the ideological and political field today.

After several years of rapid development, the role of Daqin Metropolis Daily in the public opinion propaganda position has been very obvious, and it has slowly begun to achieve the original intention and purpose of Chen Xu's original newspaper.

And today's last edict of the court will soon be publicized through the newspapers, so that the people of the world know that the imperial court not only suppressed the brutal and unkind rebels, but also the emperor is also very concerned about the lives of the people in the troubled areas, exempting taxes and forced labor, and opening warehouses to help refugees are all benevolent and virtuous actions.

For the next month, Chen Xu was busy with the matter of splitting up Huaxia Bank, which is simple to say, but it is not easy to completely straighten it out, but with the advent of spring and the gradual warmer weather, this matter has gradually become clear, and the preparations of the Finance Department, the Central Bank and Huaxia Bank have almost been completed.

Fan Caiying is still in control of Huaxia Qianzhuang, and Yang Kun was recommended by Chen Xu to go to Shaofu as the director of the newly prepared central bank, as for the Finance Bureau, Chen Xu will not get involved, because the Finance Department only manages the revenue and expenditure of the imperial court, and does not belong to the top-level structure, Chen Xu only needs to manage the central bank well, and the best candidate is Fan Caiying, but arranging a woman to hold such an important official position does not say that Daqin does not have it, and there will be no future generations, Chen Xu can only give up after thinking about it.

As for Chen Xu's recommendation of Yang Kun to be the head of the Central Bank, Zhao Wei had no objection, and he was very grateful, because for the operation system of the Central Bank, the officials of the entire Shaofu were blindsided, and they didn't know how to run it at all.

Although Yang Kun doesn't know much about finance, after all, he has a very flexible business acumen, and after Chen Xu and Fan Caiying's cramming indoctrination, he was very excited and excited to take over this errand, and this errand also made Yang Kun's identity step into the sky, from an idle official with a Lang position to a third-grade member of the Shaofu, because his position has a great effect on the economic prosperity and stability of Daqin, after Chen Xu's recommendation, the emperor was not stingy, and directly knighted Xiaqing, and became an important minister of the court who controlled the financial lifeline of the entire Daqin.

For Chen Xu's recommendation, Yang Kun was naturally grateful, and vowed to be the first to look forward to the Qinghe Hou Ma in this life.

In the spring of the 32nd year of the first emperor, the two newly prepared imperial court offices, the Central Money Bank and the Finance Bureau, were officially opened.

The first order of the opening of the central money bank was to encourage powerful businessmen in counties and counties across the country to prepare for the establishment of money banks in various places, and to carry out in-depth cooperation with Huaxia money banks, so as to open money banks in all counties and even towns and towns in Daqin as soon as possible.

This is the biggest reason for Chen Xu's planning of the central bank, to use the power of the imperial court to promote the development of the financial industry, improve the grassroots financial units, so that not only can quickly promote the monetary reform, but also form a financial network throughout Daqin, time does not wait, relying on Huaxia Qianzhuang alone, and it will not be able to complete this task in another ten or twenty years, because the hand of Huaxia Qianzhuang in too remote places can neither be stretched so long nor so far, but the power of the people can be easily achieved. Encourage local businessmen to invest in the establishment of money villages, and soon expand the business of money banks to places such as Bajun and Shu County, and even in the future, they can also open to Yueshi and Lingnan, which are outside the central rule of the Great Qin.

In the blink of an eye, it is mid-spring February, all things compete to grow grass and warblers, the whole of China from south to north peach red willow green, and in this spring season, a round of more ambitious national road construction has entered a state of full swing, after the spring sowing, a large number of civilians carry pots and pans and bedding tools to work on the construction site everywhere to earn money, cement factories all over the country are also around the clock, a large number of fired cement is continuously sold to contractors around the road, in addition, the demand for coal and iron ore is also increasing day by day, The whole of China is filled with smoke from the burning of cement and steel, and the boom of basic industries can already be seen.

The situation in the southeast has completely calmed down, and the court recitals and newspapers that come and go are no longer about rebels and banditry, but mostly about the people's livelihood, the crackdown, and the construction of roads.

The Xiang rebels have disappeared, except for Xiang Bo and Zhong Liwu, who escaped by boat, the main force of the entire Xiang family is basically dead, but what makes Chen Xu always haunted is that Ji Bu, the bandit leader, seems to have disappeared, without the slightest news.

However, the strike hard crackdown is still going on all over the country, and the arrest warrant for Ji Bu is still hanging on the walls of countless counties and towns across the country and the city walls of the passes, and the people everywhere are enthusiastic about supporting the strike hard with unprecedented enthusiasm, and under the enthusiastic reports and participation of the people, this round of the strike hard crackdown, which will last for half a year, has now arrested more than 100,000 people, all of whom have been sent to various places as prisoners to build roads. It has become a new force in the construction of Daqin.

For Chen Xu, the past year is definitely the most memorable year for him, collecting Liu Bang, breaking the Xiang family, killing Huangshi Gong to rescue the water gently, and began to make sailing ships to prepare for the future voyage around the world, and also conquered the Yue clan, Daqin's tentacles have penetrated deep into the Western Regions, coupled with the implementation of the new business law, and then the turn of winter and spring has completely straightened out Daqin's finance, and now the development of Daqin has begun to develop in the direction he envisioned under his step-by-step promotion, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu and others have changed, History has been completely reversed in the past year, and no matter how Great Qin develops in the future, there will be no situation in which Chu and Han compete for hegemony, and that tragic national suicidal chaos has almost imperceptibly disappeared.

And in the past year, because of the support of the first emperor, a large number of sage classics of the hundred schools of thought have also begun to be printed and listed, the splendid poetry and books of the Chinese canon are also being intensively revised and sorted, and the history books of the ancient and Xia Shang dynasties are still being sorted out, which is an unprecedented cultural event in the history of the vast sea, in addition to the Kaiwen Academy, there are celebrities and scholars in the counties and counties of the world to participate in it, and a large number of compiled manuscripts are sent to the Academy of Literature every day, and tens of thousands of disciples are immersed in it and cannot extricate themselves. Even the emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are looking forward to the grand occasion after these classics that can be passed down for eternity, which is definitely a groundbreaking benevolence and merit.

"Comfortable!" On the bank of the stream full of flowers, Chen Xu was lying on the grass with his soft and elastic thighs pillowing the water, squinting his eyes in the sun with a sweet grass root in his mouth.

Ying Shiyan and a few maids sat on a huge cattail mat next to her to tease Chen Xi, who could just climb, and was surrounded by Balang drums and various small toys made of bamboo and wood, and even a colorful picture album painted by the water gently, with patterns of various flowers, birds, insects and fish.

On the bank of the stream, a group of young girls such as Meng Wan and Xing'er Yu Ji ran back and forth in colorful flocks to pick wild flowers and play, and in the stream, a group of teenagers and domestic servants were catching shrimp and crabs.

Sisters Fan Caiying and Fan Caiwei also flew kites not far from the river beach with a few maids, and from time to time there was laughter like silver bells.

In the valley in the distance, there was a popping sound from time to time, and at the same time, there was a laugh of giggling, it was Meng Yun and a group of gentlemen who were casting nets to catch five-colored fish.

This is still the same place where I had a picnic with the emperor the year before last.

However, there was no emperor to join in the fun today, and everyone felt unparalleled ease and ease.

Chen Xu hasn't been so relaxed for a long time.

"Eun Gong~~"

With the sound of kicking and trampling horses' hooves coming from a distance, I soon saw two tall horses galloping, the man in front of him in black clothes and black pants carrying a sword, it was Yu Wuya who had been out for a few months, and the woman in a cyan dress next to him, who was also carrying a sword, was Yu Wuya's happy enemy Xia Zijin.

"Brother Yu is back!" Chen Xu got up in surprise, and Shui Shui stood up gently.

"Engong, such a fun picnic doesn't wait for me!" The horse rushed to a place not far from Chen Xu, and a neighing stopped, Yu Wuya turned over and jumped off the horse, complaining loudly.

"How can I wait for you when you're not at home? And, what about your baby? ”

"Baby? What baby? Yu Wuya sat down next to Chen Xu in confusion, picked up a fried crab on the plate next to him and clicked and gnawed it.

"Naturally, it's your baby, after going out for so long, I thought I would give birth to a nephew and bring it back!" Chen Xu smiled and nodded at Xia Zijin, who dismounted behind.

Yu Wuya's hand shook, the crabs fell to the ground, he secretly glanced at Xia Zijin, hurriedly picked it up, blew it a few times, and continued to eat, shaking his head with black lines and saying, "Engong, don't say nonsense, we are going out to look for Ji Bu, how can we have time to have a baby!" ”

"Didn't I say I'd come back early if I couldn't find it? You see that my daughter is about to get married, if you don't hurry up and have a baby, then you won't have your share! Chen Xu quipped.

"Poof~" The water was soft, and several maids couldn't help but cover their mouths, and their sneering delicate bodies trembled.

Ying Shiyan couldn't help complaining, "Husband, Xi'er is only eight months old, and it will take more than ten years to get married!" ”

"Hehe, do you understand the doll, although Xi'er is small, but this family business has to be done early, maybe the emperor can't help but come to propose marriage in a few days, what do you say I should do when the time comes, I don't want my daughter to marry a prince grandson and be a princess in the future, and be unhappy all day long!" Chen Xu said with a few dry laughs.

"What Engong said is that Xi'er will be as free as us in the future, go wherever you want, eat, drink and have fun, and if you become a princess, you will definitely not be happy...... "Yu Wuya nodded while nibbling on crabs, then turned his head to look at Xia Zijin who was sitting down and said, "Zijin, we must also work hard to help Engong fulfill this wish, and give birth to someone with a handle to come out and start first...... Whew~"

Xia Zijin blushed and took his hand back from Yu Wuya's waist, rolled his eyes fiercely, and said angrily, "You are useless, do you still blame me?" ”

"Hehe, such a beautiful spring, let's find a place to work hard in a while...... Whew~" Yu Wuya grinned and screamed again, and Xia Zijin stood up with a red cloud on his face and floated to see Fan Caiying and the others fly kites.

"Senior brother, Sister Zijin is thin-skinned and so public, how can you say such shy words?" Shui Qingrou also glared at Yu Wuya with a blushing cheek.

"Is she thin-skinned? Why didn't I find out? Yu Wuya gently rubbed the soft flesh on his waist depressedly and muttered, "Last time, you kicked me onto the couch and climbed up......"

"Puff~~"

Ying Shiyan and Shui Qingrou stood up with red faces, and took a few maids to carry Chen Xi to play elsewhere.
