After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Xuan still planned to use an institutional method to solve a kind of "thousand-year-old malpractice" of cronyism in many other places that had extended from the bureaucracy and yamen in the past, and to "avoid suspicion" by using detailed and clear rules to determine those personnel appointments.

After extensive deliberation and discussion among many people, some principles that seemed to have a wider impact and even more important were finally clarified. First, management posts at different levels, from the military to enterprises, should be regularly evaluated on paper in five-year increments. If you fail to pass the assessment, you will not have the qualifications for a certain level. In fact, just like the college entrance examination in later generations, it also has some drawbacks. However, in contrast, in such a practical environment as the secular society of the East, if there is no "diploma supremacy", it is obvious that there will be more disadvantages. And even in the college entrance examination, many drawbacks are also brought about by the way of "one test for life". Even if there is a knockout rate similar to the initial level of efficient enrollment expansion and the determination of diplomas by university leaving exams when graduating from college, the associated disadvantages will be much weakened.

Secondly, it also clarifies many situations that need to avoid suspicion: as long as there is a profession and level with full personnel rights, the upward transfer within the scope of direct relatives, including siblings, children, parents, etc., is a violation, and the rewarding upward transfer of relevant personnel such as comrades-in-arms and fellow villagers of the same company and even direct relatives needs to be reported to the units at the level of the central government or the governor's district. At the same time, it also gives a considerable part of the upper level of the enterprise a large degree of management authority and autonomy to the greatest extent. Whether or not the leaders of enterprises have real power in the real sense has also become an important indicator of "whether the reform of state-owned enterprises is thorough" to a large extent. Obviously, it is not possible for the monarch or the central government to directly intervene in many disputes within the enterprise. But this at least simplifies the management hierarchy and even who needs to be regulated.

After the entire 17-year society of Chongzhen has been further developed and consolidated under the new model of the legal system and judicial system, it has also brought about a large scale of social dividends. Although the progress of industry and commerce and even the entire economic system has not been so great, the fiscal revenue from the sea has still increased on a considerable scale.

The management of "China Textile" has been greatly innovated and began to forge ahead, through the supplementary development of printing and dyeing and even downstream fields and even the improvement of labor productivity, the profit and tax in just one year has reached a scale of about 20 million taels. The coal business in the northern mining areas has also been improved and increased to a great extent, although the fall in coal prices has led to the achievement of "China Textile", but the annual profits and taxes have still reached the scale of 15 million taels.

The annual income of government-run industry and commerce and the government farms, which had accumulated many defects in the past, reached an annual income of about 57 million taels after thorough management reforms. Combined with tax revenues in the fields of commerce and agriculture, domestic fiscal revenues alone have fallen by 120 million taels, which is due to the improvement brought about by the rise in food prices because the expansion of the entire economy is not as rapid as it was ten years ago.

Of course, these seem to Xiao Xuan to be just getting started. After surviving the fate of Chongzhen in the spring of the seventeenth year, Xiao Xuan actually had a new idea, that is, to go on another long trip before the children really grew up and brought a lot of political concerns. Of course, the goal is not only in the sea, Xiao Xuan also needs to find out how the development and colonization in the Taixi area are going.

In the past seven or eight years, although the means of transportation are very limited, the total number of people who have been transferred from Hezhong to Taixi through the sea and northwest land routes has reached about 7 million, and these 7 million people are not simply randomly distributed population, but the population of young and middle-aged children or teenagers as the core, and it is easy to expand to more than 10 million people in a very short time.

Although after years of rebellion and even governance, many of the ills accumulated in the whole sea for thousands of years have been effectively controlled, but because the vast colonies in the Taixi area lack a clear goal. Even if some of the drawbacks of the splitting tendency of the upper level can be solved through the transfer of management, Xiao Xuan, who already has some experience at this time, guesses that the disadvantages of various middle and grassroots levels should not be small.

In fact, it is a very simple question: Europe, which has been in the Renaissance for two or three hundred years, is no longer in the same state as it was before the Middle Ages, where barbarism and forests were everywhere, just like the situation in China before the Warring States period. Instead, a wide range of fields, from agriculture to manufacturing, began to be widely cultivated. If the barren Dongying is added to the Nanyang Tianzhu area, it can provide tens of millions of taels of colonial wealth every year. From Hezhong to Taixi, almost all of the population, arable land, and even industrial and commercial potential are not much inferior to the vast area before the New Deal, and how can the entire Taixi only have the ability to provide 30 million taels of wealth every year? There will be at least three or four times the difference.

Xiao Xuan actually realized very early on that a country of China's size is different from some small European countries, and it is not enough for the whole society to bear a lot of "new class costs" in the process of modernization. It is necessary to eat the "civilization zone" of the whole world to get enough nutrients. At the same time, Xiao Xuan was not sure what kind of impact it would have on combat effectiveness after a series of changes in the new guard battalion. I can only choose to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the new guard battalion for the last time when all kinds of negative effects have not yet been exposed, so as to "escort" this expedition

In this way, not long after the spring of the eighteenth year of Chongzhen. The entire team of Ying Tianxin's personal guard battalion is about to set off again. In order to avoid some uncontrollable risks that are still difficult to avoid in this era of ocean travel. In the end, the team chose to go overland.

The team that traveled with Xiao Xuan was about 7,000 people, including the new adult soldiers and craftsman battalions in the Hero Outer City as the core, as well as some other baggage soldiers and even combat engineers, about 2,000 people, about 2,000 people in the expanded new guard battalion, and about 1,000 people in the independent artillery battalion. There are also 2,000 cavalrymen who used to be the main cavalry of the volunteer army, and to a certain extent, the weapons and equipment have been updated.

If it was in the past, Xiao Xuan certainly wouldn't dare to carry out such a task with just these troops, but the family background accumulated by the elite craftsmen over the years has made Xiao Xuan not worry about too many accidents with a team of this size to a large extent.
