These people were originally just refugees, it would be good to be able to come here and have enough to eat, but now they are appreciated and appointed by Qin Dong, the king of the Eastern Courtyard, it can be said that God has mercy, what else is there to ask for? Therefore, these people are grateful to Qin Dong. But in fact, because of the arrival of these technicians, technicians, and cultural scholars, Qin Dong has brought great benefits and benefits.

In just a few months, Qin Dong found that the economy of his entire territory had doubled, and the increased economic benefits were mainly concentrated in the cultural sector.

Relatively speaking, because of the arrival of these people, the economy began to develop in a stepwise manner, and the development of the economy made the officials more motivated, and the relationship between politics, economy and culture is one of mutual interaction and dependence.

Culture has its own inheritance and relative independence, although these cultural people came from Rome, but they came to the things created by Cedica and have the characteristics here, after all, the inspiration of cultural and artistic people needs to rely on real life.

Culture reflects the form of economy and politics, and the economy is the foundation, the economy is the concentrated embodiment of culture, in the case of political conditions permitting, the economy can let go of its hands and feet to make great strides forward, if there is a cultural force of catalysis, then the development of the economy will be a blowout.

Listening to the report of his subordinate officials, Qin Dong touched his chin, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, in just a few months, our tax revenue has increased by thirty percent, and the circulation of money in the market has also accelerated, which is very good." Money has to be circulated, and if gold and silver are not in circulation, then their role as money is lost. So, remember, you have to do everything you can to make the money circulate as fast as possible, and if a strong man can earn one coin a day, then if he uses up ten copper plates, the circulation rate will be very fast, and what you have to do is to make sure that he earns one silver coin a day. Find a way to make sure they have work every day and provide them with more job opportunities, that's what you do! ”

Zhong Hui stood up and saluted: "The king is wise." The subordinates listened to the king's guidance, and suddenly opened! ”

Why does Qin Dong attach so much importance to culture? Because culture has an irreplaceable role in cohesion of society, it can be said that culture is the glue that unites society, and now there are many ethnic groups in his territory, and these ethnic groups have their own unique culture and customs. But these barbaric and backward civilizations not only have no effect on society. On the contrary, there is an obstructive effect, at this time, advanced civilization is needed to replace the barbaric and backward civilization, so that all social strata are cohesive, and the outbreak of social contradictions is minimized, which is one of the main reasons why Qin Dong attaches importance to culture.

If the process of replacing the old system with a new system and replacing the old system with a new system is a manifestation of the extraordinary state of society, then after the establishment of a new system and a system. The operation and development of society in a certain order is the expression of social normality. Because society is a human society, and each person's environment, self-quality, and spiritual and material needs are different. Therefore, there will still be contradictions between people and nature, between people and people, and between people and society, as well as contradictions between people's own emotional desires and reason. If these contradictions are not properly resolved, the normalcy of this society will be broken. From the perspective of the history of the development of human society, people often adopt a variety of means to solve these contradictions, and relying on the power of culture to resolve these contradictions is an indispensable aspect.

This is because cultural factors such as laws, ideals, morality, etiquette, and sentiment contain the connotations of what social subjects can "do" and "what they can't do", and what they should "do" and "what they shouldn't do". Therefore, in order to resolve the contradictions between man and nature, man and man, man and society, we must rely on the role of culture in edifying, edifying, and incentivizing, give play to the role of cohesion, lubrication, and integration of advanced culture, and imperceptibly implant cultural factors such as sincerity, justice, and fairness into the hearts of the people in a convincing and close way to the people.

Qin Dong and some officials dressed in regular clothes made a private visit on the street, and along the way they saw the people of all ethnic groups in harmony, because in the past, people of different nationalities often had conflicts because of customs and various reasons.

Qin Dong asked, "Hey, why didn't you see anyone arguing on the street today, someone fighting and making trouble?" ”

Pethius said: "King, we were very strange at first, but then we sent people to investigate, because a few months ago, more than 1,000 scholars from Rome came, and they also played a lot of roles in social stability, for example, some of those people built an opera house, performed plays in the opera house, many people went to see it, and some people reported the concert, and many people went to see it, many people were affected after watching it, and many people mediated and gave speeches in places where there was often trouble!" ”

"No wonder!"

In addition to the role of culture in social normalcy and human ideology, as well as in economic development, and in addition to its irreplaceable role in social cohesion, culture also plays a guiding role in the development of society. The culture of any social form is not only the affirmation and support of the current society, but also contains the evaluation and criticism of the current society, which not only contains the value support of "what the society" is, but also contains the value judgment of "how the society should be". The history of the development of human society shows that when an old system and an old system cannot be further operated, the leading role of culture in the establishment of a new system and a new system is very obvious. On the one hand, the cultural spirit contained in the new system and the new system provides a sharp weapon for criticizing, negating and transcending the old system and the old system, and on the other hand, it uses a new value concept and the new value world established by it as a blueprint to give people the support of ideals and beliefs.

As a spiritual force, culture can be transformed into a material force in the process of people's understanding and transformation of the world, and has a profound impact on social development. This influence is expressed not only in the course of the individual's growth, but also in the history of the nation and the state. An advanced and healthy culture has a tremendous role in promoting the development of society; Reactionary, decadent and declining culture plays a major role in hindering the development of society.

People create culture, and culture also shapes people. Excellent culture can enrich people's spiritual world. Excellent cultural works can always make people deeply shocked and multiply their strength with their unique appeal and appeal, and become a torch that illuminates people's hearts and a banner that leads people forward. And the resulting spiritual power is often timeless, inspiring people to continue to create a better and happier life.

Walking around, Qin Dong found that it was not far from the place where Charlie Cao built the Taoist temple, and immediately said: "This is not far from the place where Charlie Cao built the Taoist temple, let's go and see how his Taoist temple is built!" ”

Seeing that Qin Dong was so interested, all the officials naturally readily agreed, and everyone went together.

In fact, there is still a lot of distance from the place where the Taoist temple was built, but these are all on horseback, and it doesn't take half an hour to get there, and when Qin Dong and the officials arrived, a mountain south of Saidika was under intense construction, and there were sweaty workers everywhere carrying stones to the mountain.

This hill was purchased by Charlie Cao from the Cedica City Hall, which cost Charlie Cao a lot of money, but Charlie Cao has indeed cheated a lot of money in Europe in recent years, and it is more than enough to take out some to buy a mountain to build a Taoist temple.

As for the ownership of land, mountains and rivers, Qin Dong's official office for the legislation stipulates that land can be privately owned and can be bought and sold freely, but farmers' farmland, whether it is dry land or paddy fields, must be registered with the local government office at the time of sale, and the land ownership certificate must be re-issued, and the land and homestead in other villages and towns are the same, otherwise it will be regarded as invalid transaction, and farmers must leave one mu of land per capita as ration field when selling land, which is the minimum guarantee, for example, a family has six people, There are a total of 15 acres of land, which can only be sold for a maximum of nine acres, and six acres must be left as ration fields, which cannot be bought and sold at any time, this is Qin Dong's decision after consideration, and at this stage it is necessary to charge the issue of ensuring that the peasants eat, if there is no food, the peasants will be forced to rebel.

Farmland must be cultivated every year, no matter what grain crops are planted, anyway, the field must not be left idle and grass grows, once the government finds that there is farmland idle and no one cultivates it, no matter whose field it owns, it will be confiscated.

In addition, small barren mountains with no mineral resources can also be bought and sold, but they can only be sold to religions for the construction of missionary buildings, and other private individuals cannot buy them.

The arrival of Qin Dong and others immediately attracted the attention of the construction management personnel, Charlie Cao was holding a wooden board and kept fanning himself, seeing Qin Dong and others coming, he immediately dropped the wooden board and ran over, and hurriedly took the reins of the war horse and said: "On such a hot day, why is the king here?" ”

Qin Dong smiled: "Come and see, how is it, the tension seems to be good, when will it be completed?" ”

"The main temple should be completed by the end of this year, but it may have to wait until next summer to use it!"

Qin Dong nodded, and suddenly there was a Roman not far away, it seemed that it should be an architect, this person was instructing the workers on how to carry the stones, so he asked, "Is that the architect you hired?" How much is his salary now? ”

Hearing Qin Dong's question, Charlie Cao said with a bitter face: "Old and expensive, that ghost guy actually asked me for ten gold coins a month!" ”

Qin Dong laughed when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Ten gold coins is not much, you earned it!" (To be continued......)
