On the first day of the five of them in Beijing, they met Feng Yunshan, and they had already been explained, so it was not surprising to hear what Feng Yunshan said today, but today's emperor deliberately emphasized the major reform, which still made a little shocked, and they knew that the emperor had already made up his mind.

"I hope that the five Aiqing can unite closely and cooperate with each other, not only to handle the empire's government affairs properly, but also to let the empire usher in great development!" Feng Yunshan's words became a little harsh, and it was obvious that he had high expectations for the new cabinet.

The five of them hurriedly bowed to the ground and bowed: "Obey Your Majesty's holy decree!" ”

Feng Yunshan today is mainly to talk to the five people about the main task of forming a new cabinet, and by the way, remind the five people to attach importance to the matter of major restructuring, and seeing that the five people are more tense and formal than the previous court, he waved his hand and said: "The five Aiqing don't have to be restrained, today I will talk with you casually about the direction of the cabinet in the future." It is also convenient for Zhong Aiqing to know where to go. ”

Li Hongzhang's face was overjoyed, he knew that His Majesty was going to guide their cabinet in the future direction of governance, and hurriedly took the lead and said: "Please also ask Your Majesty to show me!" ”

"The empire has been established for nearly ten years, and has been carrying out social changes, and to this day, it can be regarded as a great change and progress, but because of this, many officials are satisfied with this and do not want to forge ahead, therefore, I am determined to set off a storm of change from top to bottom in the entire empire, which is initiated by the cabinet composed of five of you, specifically in four aspects: colonization and industry, trade in the world, civilization and civilization, and a rich country and a strong army!"

Saying that, Feng Yunshan sorted out his thoughts a little, in fact, what he took was not what he thought, but a path of change that was combined with this era and then thought of the rising island country in history. In fact, the empire has made great achievements in these four aspects, but Feng Yunshan's goal is not to be like the original world hegemon Britain, but to aim at the world hegemon of the United States, or even higher goals, so in this era of great changes that do not advance or retreat, and the great powers of various countries strive to develop, he must once again promote the reform and consolidate the achievements of development and the empire's status as a powerful country.

Feng Yunshan then said: "Colonization and industry, that is, the production industries such as factories and mines that are developing everywhere today, develop all walks of life;

The world of trade is to purchase raw materials from all over the world, process them into goods through the processing of factories set up by the colonization industry, sell them to the country and the world, seize the wealth of the world, and make other countries rely on the empire, serve the empire's economy, and truly use the empire's holy currency;

Civilization and enlightenment is to imitate the education and science of Western countries, transform the regional culture of the gentry that is still somewhat deep-rooted in various parts of the empire, abolish the feudal education centered on Confucianism, and continue to fully implement the education systems such as primary, secondary and higher schools, so that all children in the empire can receive universal compulsory education;

To enrich the country and strengthen the army is to continue to expand the army, strengthen the input of the army and field army, and organize and expand the scale of the naval fleet, so as to become the strongest country in the world, and completely change the overall strategy of the empire from defense to active expansion, and from expansion to a world earthquake deterrent. ”

The five of them had a chill in their hearts, and the emperor's plan was not just to strengthen the previous innovation, but to develop rapidly.

Feng Yunshan continued: "The first priority of the establishment of the cabinet is to develop the population of the empire, speed up the free flow of population between various places, and let the surplus peasants in the countryside throughout the empire leave the countryside and enter the cities. Only in this way can we promote the development of industry more violently! ”

Liu Changyou had some doubts: "Your Majesty, the development of industry is of course very important, but if the peasants in the countryside are led to the factories in the towns, will the farmland in the countryside be wasted, and no one will cultivate the grain and reduce the output, which will eventually affect the foundation of the empire!" ”

Feng Yunshan waved his hand and said, "What Liu Aiqing is worried about, I have already considered. This is the task of your cabinet, and I hope not only to liberate at least five million to ten million strong men from the countryside into industrial fields such as factories and minerals, but also to make agriculture regress. Not only can it not affect agriculture, but it must also usher in great development of agriculture!

Now that the empire is vast and vast, there is an urgent need for labor to exploit it, so the manpower liberated from the countryside has to be compensated for by other means. The Ministry of Agriculture has developed new farming machines, steam engines have driven cultivated land, holy fertilizers have been widely used, breeding farms and crop test sites have been set up, and the Ministry of Agriculture has sent itinerant teachers to popularize advanced agricultural technology and farming methods. In short, arable land must be expanded by at least one third and the rural population reduced by one-fifth. As for how to do it, the cabinet led the Ministry of Agriculture to come up with a charter! ”

The five of them immediately pulled their faces together, and Liu Changyou was even more dumbfounded, the only thought was that he had to speed up the development of new agricultural machines according to the emperor's words.

"As for the cultivation of industry, as I said earlier, in order to provide the manpower needed for the development of industry, more than five million strong men must be squeezed out of the countryside and into the factories. Because, industry and commerce are the first pillar of the empire in my opinion, and the strength of the empire, the tax revenue of the empire, and the future of the empire all depend on the development of industry and commerce!

Therefore, I have to affirm that everything in the cabinet must be centered on the development of industry and commerce!

I set a standard for the five Aiqing, that is, a period of five years, and after five years, I require all the industrial indicators of the world powers, and the Chinese Empire must rank first! Rapidly increase the fruits of the Empire's Industrial Revolution, centered on the steel and railroad industries! ”

After listening to Feng Yunshan's request for the development of the industry, Li Hongzhang was excited and excited, and the pressure was huge. And the other four were even more apprehensive.

Feng Yunshan smiled slightly: "What's the matter, don't Zhongqing have confidence?" In five years, ranking first is not a difficult thing for the Chinese Empire, which now has such rich conditions and foundations! If that doesn't work, you can all leave the cabinet and go back to your place! ”

Li Hongzhang had to lead the four of them to say together: "Obey Your Majesty's holy decree!" ”

"In terms of the world of trade, a certain situation has now opened up! More importantly, it is necessary to develop a large number of ocean-going trading companies and cultivate local intermediary agents around the world. In this piece, Wu Aiqing has to pay more attention! Feng Yunshan advised: "When necessary, you can send the naval fleet and the marine corps to open up the situation!" For markets that are not open, it is necessary to open them with artillery! For the recalcitrant forces, they are directly replaced.

As for the aspect of civilization and enlightenment, although the empire has begun to implement it, it is limited to the original ten provinces, and now, to fully implement it to the entire empire, the most important thing is to establish a complete education system, establish a comprehensive compulsory education system and a number of military academies to help the development of the industrial revolution. At the same time, the Cabinet organized a meeting of representatives from all strata, especially the workers' representatives, who, with my approval, became members of the National Assembly to discuss and formulate the Constitution of the Chinese Empire, which clarified my eternal dominance and gave the people of all strata, especially the workers and merchants, their due political status.

All of the above has been done, and it is inevitable to enrich the country and strengthen the army! ”
