At the beginning of the new dynasty, the war continued, and the Manchu officials felt a lot of pressure.

On the one hand, there are emperor's decrees to be responsible, and on the other hand, they are also responsible for providing basic support for the army, and many ordnance materials need to be transported from Beijing to the battlefield.

The officials were tired and dark, but this year's New Year was still fighting, the emperor took pity on the officials for being too tired, gave them a day off, had a reunion dinner together on Chinese New Year's Eve, allowed a day off on the first day of the first month, and then began to work on the second day of the first month.

Because the army is still on the march and fighting.

The soldiers did not hesitate to give up the opportunity to reunite with their families to quell the rebellion for the country, and you and other officials could not be lazy and could not fail to take the sacrifices of the soldiers to heart.

Xiao Ruxun made such a stern statement.

The officials did not dare to disobey the emperor's orders, so they could only honestly come to work and work overtime, day and night, busy in the dark, tired and unknowing.

The officials of the Great Qin Empire were not dissatisfied with their vacation.

Because Emperor Xiao of the Great Qin Dynasty carefully inspected the holiday system of the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, he found that the Song Dynasty was too relaxed, and if you really want to calculate it, an official can take a vacation for one-third of the time in a year, while the Ming Dynasty is too strict, and only a few days a year are holidays.

The vacation system of these two dynasties was not advisable, so Xiao Ruxun formulated a new law for officials to take a day off, first reinstated the law of one day off every ten days, and then stipulated the law of rest on holidays on this basis.

Work on Chinese New Year's Eve, but there is no need to work overtime at night, from the beginning of the first month, the Spring Festival gives five days off, the Lantern Festival gives one day off, the Cold Food Festival Qingming Festival gives two days off, the Shangwei Festival gives one day off, the Dragon Boat Festival gives one day off, the Qixi Festival gives one day off, the Mid-Autumn Festival gives three days off, the Chongyang Festival, the Winter Clothes Festival and the Laba Festival each give one day off, the winter solstice gives one day off, and then the emperor's birthday gives one day off.

These holidays can be taken in a row when they meet a rest day, or a holiday, it all depends on how the emperor arranges it, Lin Lin finally calculated, there is more than a month of rest a year, such a rest, the officials are much more relaxed than the previous Ming, so there is no complaint.

During these holidays, the emperor would organize special banquets or celebrations to reward the people and courtiers, and in short, their lives were better than those of the previous Ming dynasty.

But there must be a premise for all this, that is, there is no catastrophe and the use of soldiers, once there is a catastrophe and the use of soldiers, the emperor himself stipulates that even his birthday will not be exceeded, and the holidays will not be considered, and he will honestly return to work.

Now this is the case, this war has been fought for a whole New Year, and the officials have worked hard for a whole New Year, preparing for this war since October, and the major festivals that began in October, not only did the emperor not hold a big celebration, but even the people were affected and did not make a big celebration.

But for Daqin, everyone has no complaints.

For officials, if they win the battle, the emperor will naturally compensate for a bigger celebration and more rewards, everyone knows in their hearts, for the people, they can also get a preferential policy of exempting taxes for one year for Daqin, why not?

During the Chinese New Year, you can spend every year, but one year is not a big deal, but it is a great benefit to be exempted from paying taxes for one year, maybe you can live a good life with three full meals, and you can leave more seed grain and reserve grain for the next year.

Daqin exempted many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and explicitly forbade the establishment of taxes again, and the local governments were not allowed to increase the number of taxes, only the central government had this power, and instead imposed these taxes on the merchants, and imposed heavy taxes on the merchants in order to increase fiscal revenue and reduce the burden on the peasants.

The people of the three southeastern provinces were the first to receive the favor of this policy, their burden was greatly reduced, and their living conditions were significantly improved.

Now that the battle is over and there is a great victory, they can rejoice.

When Xiao Ruxun received the news, it was the third day of the second month of February, and the people of the capital had just spontaneously organized the sacrifice of the second dragon raising its head in February, and this year's sacrifice was not officially organized, and the people were somewhat confused, but they thought that the dynasty was in a big war, so the people also understood it somewhat.

On February 2, people in urban and rural areas have sacrificed to the gods related to agriculture, praying for good weather and good grain harvests in the coming year, which is a very symbolic festival, and the official should actually make some reactions, such as sending people to organize and so on.

However, this year, the government did not send people to organize, but directly under the leadership of Zhang Zhihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, who separated from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, a spring ploughing meeting was held.

Led by Zhang Zhihe, officials from the Ministry of Agriculture scattered out to conduct inspections throughout the Beizhili to estimate the agricultural harvest in the north.

Spring ploughing is a major event, according to the practice of the previous dynasty, at the beginning of spring, the emperor and the crown prince need to personally go to the field to cultivate, the queen needs to personally raise silkworms and reeling silk, the royal family leads by example, and makes good wishes for the harvest of the coming year, no matter how absurd the emperor will not be absent.

Xiao Ruxun naturally can't be absent, since last year, although he has not sent anyone to organize sacrifices, he still took Zhenbang and Yingying to the Huangzhuang cultivated land outside the Beijing Division to personally cultivate the land for half a day, and let Caiyun lead the palace maids in the palace to raise silkworms in person, and set an example for the people of the world, indicating that the country's heavy agricultural standard will not change.

Unlike the emperor who put on a show in the past and pushed farm tools back and forth four times, Xiao Ruxun asked Zhenbang and Yingying to follow him to do half a day's farm work, plowing the land, sowing seeds, and not being lazy for a moment until the three acres of land were cultivated.

The emperor took the lead in farming, and the civil and military officials and their families did not dare to put on a show, but one-tenth of the cultivated land in the imperial village was handed over to the civil and military officials and their families for cultivation and sowing.

Of course, Xiao Ruxun also knew how effective this was, so after they were tired and tired, Xiao Ruxun also sent the eunuchs who managed the royal farm to reorganize the land.

The establishment of the Imperial Village was not for profit, but to supply a certain amount of vegetables and fruits to the imperial family, and to reduce the burden of tribute to the imperial family in various places.

When Xiao Ruxun went to various places, he knew very well how labor-intensive it was to supply the emperor with local tribute, and it required a lot of manpower to spend on this matter, because the tribute offered must be perfect, and sometimes even the people would be ruined.

Therefore, after ascending the throne, Xiao Ruxun ordered the abolition of two-thirds of the local offerings, and only retained some local specialties that must be offered, such as tea, silk, porcelain, and other things that Jingshi could not produce.

More indifferent things are simply abolished, or only one-tenth or one-twentieth of the upper supply is kept, and the royal family is sufficient.

In order to enrich the materials in the court, the Huangzhuang and Xungui Manor that Xiao Ruxun took from the Ming clan and the Ming Xungui became the main supply places, and eunuchs were sent to manage them, and the eunuchs cultivated the land and planted fruits and vegetables and other crops that were not usually grown.

A large amount of local land is used to grow food, and in this way, it is not enough to feed people, let alone fruits and vegetables, and only after the grain production has increased greatly, people can use some land to grow more non-staple foods.

And at present, the royal family cannot cause people to have no food for their own selfish desires, so these imperial houses can be used to play their due role.

It just so happened that there was no need for so many palace maids and maids in the court, so Xiao Ruxun set the rules, and the little maids and maids who had just come in were sent to the imperial village to farm or raise silkworms and reel silk for the court, and then transferred to the court after two years.

The little palace maids can be released when they reach the age of twenty-three, but the chamberlains cannot, and they have to stay in the palace for the rest of their lives.

There are times when there is no need for so many servants to serve in the palace, and it is a waste of food and money to keep it, but without the descendants below, it is impossible to put it among the people, but there must be a place to go.

Then the Huangzhuang and mining land in various places is the best place to go, there is a lot of land in the Huangzhuang that can be cultivated, specially supplied to the royal family, and sent the inner servants to the Huangzhuang to cultivate the land and cultivate the land, which can reduce the burden on the people and save the royal family.

In addition, Xiao Ruxun also nationalized all the existing iron ore and copper ore and other metal ores, and forbade private mining, and also sent experienced miners, eunuchs, and troops to form a prospecting force to explore metal deposits everywhere and establish a new imperial mine.

There are some large mineral deposits that Xiao Ruxun remembers deeply, and he also specially marked them for the prospecting troops to focus on exploring.

It turned out that the mines of the Wanli Emperor and the mines of the local powerful were all nationalized, and the best managers were these internal servants, the emperor's domestic slaves, and all the money obtained from mining was filled into the internal funds.

It's not that he is greedy for money, the emperor is nominally rich in the world, nominally holds absolute power, nominally only he has the final say, nominally he controls the life and death of everyone, but how many cats are greasy in this, how many dumb losses, only the emperor himself knows.

But there is only one thing that is true, the first person in the world who is short of money and will always lack money and can never be short of money, is really the emperor himself.

The rewards of the New Year's holidays, the rewards of various names for disaster relief, that is a real amount of money, so Xiao Ruxun quickly understood the meaning of the existence of the emperor's internal funds.

All kinds of rewards, rewards of all kinds of names, and all the expenses within the court, all of them went to the treasury instead of going to the treasury, earning more and consuming more.

It is indeed very important for the emperor to keep his internal money and property, otherwise the money bag will be choked, and it will be really difficult to live that day.

In order to prevent the royal family slaves from going out to oppress the locality, Xiao Ruxun also gave the local Central Investigation Division sub-bureau the power to control the eunuchs.

Cut off, there is nothing else to say.

Xiao Ruxun knew the needs of these eunuchs.

Without the roots of children and grandchildren, there is a big lack of enjoyment, and there is no hope in life, the only enjoyment is to spend money on food, and there is no need to leave it to future generations, and if you have money, you must spend it and have fun in time, so for the royal family, eunuchs are the best house slaves.

They definitely want the dynasty to survive and give them shelter, and if the dynasty is gone, their parasites will be gone.

For their own sake, they would serve the Emperor more faithfully than their ministers, especially those who could mix in the position of governor of the local mines and farms, and they knew this.

The emperor does not treat them badly, he gives everything he should give, and he gets more when he goes out to do things in the palace than in the palace, and it is a rotation system, and there is no need to be assigned to work in the place after being punished, but a serious rotation work system.

The people who work are changed every year, and the people who manage them are changed every three years, and they can also be transferred to the capital at any time to serve.

The surplus labor force in the palace will come in handy, not to support idlers, and at the same time it can also promote the flow of personnel, so as to avoid the eunuchs and old female officials in the court from forming a community of interests to deceive the upper and lower, and the flowing water can not be corrupted.

And in doing so, it can also train a group of capable domestic slaves, train a group of domestic slaves who are good at managing assets by managers, and better handle the property of the royal family, so that Xiao Ruxun does not have to spend a lot of energy on these things, and can fully deal with state affairs.

The royal family's money bag is revitalized, the emperor has money in his hands and has no dependence on the treasury, so the binding force on the hundred officials is stronger, and the face is there, otherwise he can't even afford a meal during the New Year's holidays, and he can't even afford to send red envelopes, so what kind of emperor is that?

The civil and military officials have nothing to say about this, and even if they have something to say, they naturally dare not say it.

At present, the emperor is vigorously consolidating the imperial power, all kinds of tricks are endless, firmly holding the power in his hands, doing things vigorously and resolutely, without hesitation, and the requirements for officials are extremely high, in such a high-pressure state, the officials are also forced to move forward in the same pace as the emperor, otherwise it is very likely to be thrown down, and even the ninth class banquet can not be eaten.

Although Daqin has only been established for a year, the new atmosphere and new trends have been clearly displayed, and the ministers are awe-inspiring.

Now, the news of the great victory in the Battle of Banzhou, which was regarded as a battle for the founding of the state, has reached the Jingshi, and the Yang clan of Tusi, who did not obey the control of the southwest, has been completely exterminated, and the prestige of Great Qin has greatly increased, and its local deterrent power has greatly increased, and all officials immediately realize that the emperor is about to take action against the southwest.

The emperor will inevitably carry out land reform in the southwest with the power of great victory, and completely control the southwest in his hands.

While they were feeling excited, they also had a hunch that a busier future was coming.

The pressure on the central government is really great.

Most of them didn't know that Xiao Ruxun had the idea of large-scale immigration to fill the southwest, but they only knew that the emperor would definitely not let go of what the toasts in the southwest were holding.

Killing Yang Yinglong, who has the strongest military strength, will greatly boost the will of the emperor and the military to fight, and the war may not end in a short time.

However, in the first year of the founding of the Great Qin, the family foundation was not thick enough, and there were still many places where food and money were needed, and the only thing that the emperor could use was the storage of Luzon and Burma.

It was only now that many officials saw the significance of the emperor's management of the two "wild lands" of Burma and Luzon, and after three or four years of development, it was equivalent to gaining the productivity of the two provinces again.

A large amount of grain entered the Yangtze River through sea ships and was directly transported to the Banzhou battlefield, and I don't know how much the pressure on the provinces south of the Yangtze River was relieved.

In the previous Liaodong crisis, a large part of the grain was supported by Burma and Luzon, and the grain production in these places was really powerful, and it could be used as a blood transfusion for the interior of Daqin, so it was too important to build a strong sailor to control the two places.
