Chapter 397: The Elephant Hall Changed Hands
In the first year after the war against the barbarians, the dynasty entered a real age of agriculture and heraldry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The rapid increase in the population and the disappearance of migratory herds made it necessary for the dynasty to cultivate a lot of land to feed such a large population. Fortunately, the staff and civilian officials had expected it before, and they had stockpiled countless dried meat, so that everyone was not hungry in the autumn for the first year.
At this time, land was not a scarce resource, and after the manpower was sufficient, the cultivated area began to expand in a large area. Skilled farmers worked intensively, while prisoners of war first planted extensively, and then slowly taught them to work hard.
At this time, agricultural research also slowly made progress, grains with higher yields per mu were cultivated, the planting seasons of various melons and fruits were also summarized, and the cycles of water and drought planting, fertilization and watering were also summarized. A large number of agricultural technicians went deep into the fields to guide the planting, and after a few years, great harvests were achieved everywhere. It provided extremely favorable conditions for other construction of the dynasty.
After there was no shortage of food, the dynasty transferred manpower and began the construction of a cross-era project. The first is to open the north-south road.
With Wangcheng as the center, three four-way galloping roads were put on the agenda first. These gallops lead to Yiren and Huaiya in the north, Qinzhong, and Yangcheng in Lingnan. Since then, these gallops have been used as a link to trade along the way, subduing roadside tribes, establishing villages, post stations, ferries, and so on.
After the opening of these gallops, the dynasty also organized several large-scale water control projects. One is to dredge the Taijiang River waterway, and dig deep into the still water and shallow water on both sides. It can make it easy for large ships to pass. The second is to dredge the Taihe River near the territory of Yiren, so that several waterways of the Taihe River can be integrated, and some embankments will be built to prevent the flooding of the Taihe River. The third is to dredge the three waterways of Qinzhong, Wei, Jing and Luo, and turn Qinzhong into a thousand miles of fertile fields.
With the use of explosives, iron, livestock, etc., these works were huge, but they did not take too long. Among them, Daikoku played an important role in these constructions, and gradually became a new generation of leaders.
The material goods of the dynasty became rich after the opening of the southern gallop road, and commerce became more and more prosperous. In the royal city, you can buy the spirits of Huaiyabu at any time, the cattle and horses of Yiren and Baishi, the cane sugar and preserved fruits of Lingnan, and so on. Elsewhere, you can also buy all kinds of exquisite products from the royal city, as well as an endless stream of new gadgets.
Later, with the increase in the number of research institutes, there was also a trend of privatization. Some businessmen with a keen sense of smell saw that the new products they had researched were extremely profitable, so they began to negotiate investment with the dynasty, and even set up various research institutes themselves, and then poached people from the dynasty's research institutes.
This has also given birth to the development of the financial industry. Based on this situation, the dynasty then set up a state-owned bank to raise funds for all entrepreneurs, which can be regarded as completely releasing the beast of capital.
In addition, the dynasty soon established its first university, the Crown Private University, where outstanding researchers from various research institutes were selected to teach at the university and to study various disciplines in depth. In addition to educating more talents, it also provides a platform for the inheritance and development of knowledge.
By twenty-five years before history, the population of the royal city officially exceeded 100,000, and the population under the rule of the dynasty also exceeded one million.
At this time, my mother was still alive, but she had forgotten what she said about wanting to see the appearance of 100,000 people in the royal city. Jing has passed away. She now lives in seclusion, and she hates going out. Every time she goes out, there are dozens of doctors, guards, etc. When she arrived in the city, when she heard that her mother was coming, the people around her would spontaneously kneel down for her, which made her very boring. Her daily favorite thing to do now is to go to the castle tower of the palace, but her eyesight is getting worse and worse, and many times, she goes to see it just to maintain a certain amount of exercise.
The arrival of 100,000 inhabitants in the royal city was not celebrated with much fanfare, because in the twenty-fifth year of the history of the year, the Great Black returned to the city from outside, and after that, the news spread that the head of the academy, Bark, was preparing to resign from the position of the minister of the academy and enter the university to teach. Dahei will succeed him and enter the Imperial Courtyard, where two stone carvings of elephants are placed, which is habitually called the Elephant Hall.
The Xiangtang changed hands, and the dynasty caused a lot of sensation, and the voices of various discussions sounded everywhere.
In the power setting of the dynasty, the power of the court and the government is extremely large, and the prime minister is almost equivalent to the prime minister of later generations, and almost all administrative matters are under his control. It can really be said that one person is under ten thousand people. The change of people in the courtyard can be imagined in the power field.
In the more than ten years that Da Hei has been outside, he first helped Baishi City stabilize the situation, tamed the wild people in the way of shepherding sheep and horses, and then ran around, and performed well in opening galloping roads and controlling water, which is really the most rare talent in the current dynasty. When such a person enters the Elephant Hall, many people are convinced. But of course, there are also opposing voices.
One day, a person who thought that his qualifications were no less than Da Hei stood in front of Wang Chuan in the Junhe Palace, stating his advantages and Da Hei's shortcomings, and it seemed that he was also going to fight for the position of prime minister: "The dynasty has developed to the present, and I have followed you step by step. I'm the one who learns your best skills. Thou say, from burning pottery, striking iron, healing wounds, literacy, arithmetic, kneading ropes, knotting nets, weaving, making clothes, setting traps...... The current dynasty operates up and down, the appointment of officials, the means of government affairs, and the law of the dragon, which one of them I haven't learned well? Why did you choose an outsider who wouldn't let me try? Have you forgotten? Da Hei was a member of the Fishman clan back then, and he was captured as a slave. The first time he went into battle, he almost caused everyone to be attacked by those blackbacks on the river...... In short, even if you don't choose me, you can't make him the prime minister. I'm against it. ”
The young woman in her thirties has never left the 100-kilometer range of the royal city, nor has she participated in large-scale hunting and wild fighting, she has not worried about eating and drinking since she was a child, and she is free from all kinds of diseases, so that her body is quite good, she is already a mother of four children, and she looks younger than her peers, even if she goes out now, she is also the object of admiration of many men.
Wang Chuan smiled and looked at Ling as he said this, and some long-ago memories flashed through his mind, as if he had returned to the time when he was curled with sour leaves and roasted caterpillars to eat. Now in the dynasty, there should be no children who dare to eat roasted caterpillars, right?
Seeing Wang Chuan's wandering outside the world, Ling was completely angry, patted Wang Chuan's desk with golden silk nanmu, and said coquettishly: "I'm talking to you about business, what are you laughing at?" ”
Wang Chuan put on a serious face and said: "Then let's be serious, if you become a court minister, what do you think is the biggest problem of the dynasty now?" How to develop? ”
"The biggest problem?" Ling muttered, a little caught off guard, which she really hadn't thought much about. In her opinion, all problems are discussed in meetings, and she has a lot of experience in how to solve them, but suddenly she has to say the biggest problems of the dynasty...... Now that the dynasty is developing so well, what's the big problem?
Wang Chuan knocked on the table and said, "I asked him this question on the first day he came back, do you know what he said?" ”
Without waiting for Ling to answer, Wang Chuan continued: "He said that the biggest problem of the dynasty now is that the population is too small. Not to mention ruling the entire planet, it is impossible to completely fill the territory under our control. He said that since this world runs according to the laws of the Divine Dragon, all people in this world should be ruled by the dynasty. So, he said, within our borders, he is going to make the surrounding tribes within a thousand kilometers in diameter our people in the form of commercial ironware. Then he was to establish a nautical school, teach enough skilled sailors, and begin to visit all the places of the earth, looking for the various products of the dragon's teachings for our use, and by the way, to spread the dragon. Finally, he said that it is necessary to continue to improve the operational efficiency of our contingent of officials and to clarify the extent of the power of officials at all levels...... Finally, I told him a nine-grade hierarchy, and he was already doing subdivisions. ”
At this time, the dynasty needed a more pioneering leader. Wang Chuan himself is not a very bold person, at this time, he appropriately delegates power or puts the right person in the right position, he only stares at the general direction, and the Huaxia boat should be able to go faster.
Wang Chuan knew that Da Hei was not the perfect head of civil officials, but for now, there was no one else to choose for. The ability of the bark has been limited, and others such as slopes and silver carp have not yet grown.
Ling also has shortcomings in pioneering, at least she hasn't thought about these problems. Wang Chuan said that this earth is round, and there are many other places and so on, in her mind, it should be Wang Chuan's own back, but as everyone knows, Wang Chuan is not a true god, and his ability is limited. The end result can only be executed.
Hearing that Da Hei had already started working, Ling was a little discouraged and said, "Then what should I do?" I don't like him and don't want to do things under him. ”
Wang Chuan said: "It's good to change the environment, or you will also resign as the Minister of Education." Our university doesn't have a president yet, so you should go and be the president. It just so happens that you have learned everything by following me, and it is good to do research and write books in school. If you don't want him to take care of you, then I'll separate the university and not let him take care of it. But there is one thing you have to pay attention to, you can teach anything, but you must not teach them to resist the big black. If this student learns to resist leadership, there will be no place to use when they graduate, and I will let them go to college for nothing. ”
After a long time of inking, Ling Mian reluctantly agreed.
Since then, there have probably been some other objections, but Wang Chuan's rhetoric is still the same. It's good that Daikoku has some objections, so that he can be more cautious in his work.
In the autumn of this year, Wang Mo entered the main elephant hall and was an official residence.
