At this time, Li Huo slapped the table, got up angrily and said: "Impossible! Our clan has been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, and the army can be called an elite, but it is a hundred battles heroes, how can it be disbanded just because of your arrangement?"

Rolling his eyelids, Yao Ruoyu said coldly: "Anyone who has a title in a city-state can have private soldiers, and the number of private soldiers depends on the level of the title. ”

With a sneer, Li Huo said in a deep voice: "There are 40,000 male troops of my clan, could it be that all of them have been turned into private soldiers?"

Glancing at Li Huo, Yao Ruoyu said indifferently: "The title is divided into five ranks, and the highest duke can have five thousand private soldiers." ”

"What about the remaining 30,000 people?" Li Huo said angrily.

"Isn't it true that the original residence of the nobles doesn't need to be guarded by the army?" Rolling his eyes, Yao Ruoyu said angrily.

Seeing his impatient face, Li Huo suddenly became furious, and was about to make a move, Duan Li quickly got up and pulled him back to his seat, and said in a low voice: "Taoyuan Valley still needs the army to sit in the town, and it is impossible to come all of them." ”

Although he knew that this was the truth, Li Huo's heart still couldn't help but burn, especially when he thought of Duan Li becoming the Minister of Industry, but he didn't have anything, he didn't feel even more angry, so he directly threw Duan Li away, and walked outside the house without looking back.

It wasn't until Li Huo walked out of the house that Yao Ruoyu said lightly: "Patriarch Li has a hot temperament, and he has to trouble Patriarch Duan to appease one or two later, after all, the city-state has just been built, and everyone needs to work together." ”

Duan Li smiled bitterly when he heard this, but he still smiled with his fists and said, "Duan understands." ”

Bai Qiuyu suddenly bowed and asked, "Dare to ask the city lord, what does the city-state mean?"

Wan Er smiled, Yao Ruoyu explained: "We now sit on the two cities of Hezhou and Diaoyu, it is natural to be the king, it will inevitably provoke the anger of Song Jin, since this is the case, we will retreat and seek it, we will establish a city-state system, based on the current two cities, and look for opportunities to absorb nearby cities in the future." ”

Hearing this, Bai Qiuyu understood, and said yes.

To be honest, the city-state system was something that Yao Ruoyu thought about for a long time. After all, they now have two cities, and it is naturally too brainless to call the king and emperor, but if he only calls the city lord, he seems to be a courtier of the Song Dynasty, so after thinking about it, he thought of this city-state system.

Yang Renjie suddenly said curiously: "Old demon, don't we need to prepare any names? Even a city-state should have a name!"

Li Yilin raised his hand with excitement on his face, and said with a smile: "Why don't you call it Demacia?"

"I'm still Noxus!" laughed and scolded, Yao Ruoyu's expression was slightly solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "We are called 'Wen', and our name is Wenbang, Dawen City-State." ”

In the past, when Yao Ruoyu and others formed the army, they took the name of "literary army", and now the formation of the city-state is also called "Wen", and everyone does not have too many opinions, not to mention that for these people in the Ministry of Literature and Art, "Wen" has far greater meaning than other words.

However, Bai Qiuyu lowered his head for only a moment, then raised his head again, and said suspiciously: "My father is the minister of etiquette, dare to ask the city lord if he can tell my father?"

"Well, naturally not," after a haha, Yao Ruoyu smiled foolishly, "This matter still needs a lot of attention from the head of the household department!"

Bai Qiuyu suddenly showed a wry smile, and said helplessly: "If it were my senior brothers and sisters, Qiuyu would definitely be able to convince them, but my father is stubborn, I'm afraid he may not agree." ”

"How can you know if you don't try?" Yao Ruoyu smiled, and then said casually, "But speaking of which, Mr. Bai was unwilling to help us and others that day, because we were condemned as a traitor by the imperial court, and now that the king of Chu is the guarantor, the city-state will be a vassal of the Song Dynasty, I'm afraid it won't violate the old man's wishes, right?"

Bai Qiuyu hesitated slightly, but seeing Yao Ruoyu's displeased, he could only smile bitterly: "Qiuyu can only try hard." ”

"Yes, it is a must. He said with a smile, and then Yao Ruoyu sat up straight again and said, "Then talk about the next thing." ”

took out another list and handed it to Chen Meng beside him, Yao Ruoyu said, "Now that there are two cities under the command of the city-state, I plan to take Diaoyu City as the main city, Hezhou City as the deputy city, and the Leader's Mansion, Elder's Mansion and other institutions are unified in the main city, but in this way, Hezhou City needs to be guarded." ”

Speaking of this, Yao Ruoyu glanced at Chen Meng, who would also be interested, quickly unfolded the list, and read: "The first announcement of the Leader's Mansion is that Luo He is now appointed as the lord of Hezhou, in charge of the affairs of Hezhou, and the title of marquis. ”

Luo He was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly got up and hugged his fists in response, and swore allegiance to the leader.

Seeing Luo He swearing allegiance, Yao Ruoyu looked forward to it, but seeing that Luo He didn't say anything later, he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't say anything, and waved his hand to signal Luo He to sit down.

Although his frowning action was vague, Bai Qiuyu, Song Kai, and Duan Li could see it clearly, and immediately all three of them looked at Luo He thoughtfully, but the latter was so overjoyed by the city lord's throne that he didn't notice this at all.

Shaking his head, Yao Ruoyu continued: "The matter of recruiting officials will be handed over to the ministers, and it must be checked and clear, don't recruit any crooked melons and cracked dates to come in, and ruin the reputation of the city-state." ”

Bai Qiuyu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly waved his head to agree, while Yang Renjie and the others were giggling, and winked at Yao Ruoyu for a while, signaling him to hurry up and talk about the specific matters of the army.

Seeing their small movements, Yao Ruoyu was not happy, but this time he didn't take out any documents, but said directly: "The four battalions of the newly built Sequoia Battalion, the Beast God Battalion, the Cold Iron Battalion, and the Condor Battalion are respectively led by Jiang Siyu, Li Yilin, Fu Chaozan, and Ren Jiasheng, of which the Sequoia Battalion, the Thunder God Battalion, and the Yanhu Battalion are organized as the first military town, and the other three battalions are organized as the second military town. ”

"Hey, what about me?" Wu Xue suddenly became anxious, pointed to her nose, and shouted loudly.

"What about you?" Rolling his eyes, Yao Ruo smiled foolishly, "Give the mascot of the city-state, and sit on the luck of the city-state." ”

"Sitting in the city-state?" blinked her eyes, it took Wu Xue a long time to react, and she was immediately annoyed and angry to stand up and pounce on Yao Ruoyu, but fortunately, Jiang Siyu and Hou Jingru reacted quickly, grabbed her, and pulled her back to her seat.

"Just kidding, just kidding," Haha laughed, Yao Ruoyu took advantage of Wu Xue not continuing to get angry, and hurriedly said, "Wu Xue is the director of the Inspection and Supervision Department of the Leader's Mansion, responsible for supervision and patrolling. ”

"Supervisor, inspection?" Wu Xue blinked blankly, obviously not understanding what kind of position this was, but fortunately, Jiang Siyu explained a few words to her in a low voice.

Suddenly, Wu Xue's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Ah! Isn't that just a good way to eat and drink, and reap the benefits?"

Covering his head, Yao Ruoyu turned his head helplessly, Bai Qiuyu, Luo He, and Duan Li also twitched the corners of their mouths, embarrassed and didn't know where to look, Yang Renjie, Fu Feng, Li Yilin and others were already laughing and leaning back and forth, and the laughter almost broke the roof.

Shaking his head and not going to pay attention to this stupid guy anymore, Yao Ruoyu turned his head to look at Hou Jingru and was about to speak, but the latter had already waved his hand and hurriedly said, "Brother demon, I don't like to be an official." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse!" Smiling, Yao Ruoyu said, "I plan to build a new department under the name of the Leader's Mansion, called the Bang'en Division, which is specifically responsible for treating patients externally, as well as cooperating with the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Rites to help the victims when there is a disaster, how about it?"

Bai Qiuyu subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to advise Yao Ruoyu not to set up a post because of people, but then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, where is this because of people, it is clearly because of people, fortunately, this department is not important, and it is also the business of the people of Huize, so he finally closed his mouth and did not speak.

Hou Jingru was naturally very satisfied with this position, where would she refuse, so she quickly agreed.

Smiling, Yao Ruoyu looked around and said, "Next, the city, cough, the leader's mansion will post a list to announce the construction of the second government and five departments, and then you will probably have to stay in the leader's mansion day and night, ready for recruitment." ”

Everyone nodded yes, their faces were full of joy and excitement, obviously facing the upcoming work, they had just ascended to the throne of officials and were full of energy.

"There are a few things to do next," Yao Ruoyu looked down at the notes he had made in advance, Yao Ruoyu pondered for a moment, and then said, "There will be an internship period after the official takes up his post, and if the performance is not good after the internship period expires, he needs to be replaced. ”

Xu Xuanrong immediately said yes, Wu Xue had not yet adapted to her identity as the director, and was still gnawing on the Hezhou peach slices hidden in her sleeves by herself, until Jiang Siyu reminded her, she quickly raised her head and agreed, but a piece of peach crumbs splashed out, and Jiang Siyu and Hou Jingru beside him hurriedly dodged and dodged.

Shaking his head, Yao Ruoyu continued: "After the army is recruited and the people are relocated, the household department needs to count the number of people in the two cities, and collect information such as the people's names, places of origin, and date of birth, and enter them in the register for future use. ”

Bai Qiuyu hurriedly shook his head and agreed.

Looking at Duan Li, Yao Ruoyu said solemnly: "Ministry of Industry, count the information of the existing ordnance in the city, and then collect all kinds of ordnance drawings externally, study them carefully, and imitate them, so as to enrich the defense force of the city-state as soon as possible." ”

Duan Li nodded when he heard this, and said yes with his fists.

"The Criminal Department, formulate a bill and post it all over the city, so that the people can know it," Yao Ruoyu reminded after thinking about it, "Try to minimize corporal punishment and replace corporal punishment with hard labor." "He knows that Song Kai has a cold temperament, and if he is in charge of the criminal law, I am afraid that it will basically be a death sentence.

Song Kai frowned dissatisfiedly, but seeing Yao Ruoyu's serious eyes, he could only nod helplessly, which was regarded as a promise.

"As for the Ministry of Rites," Yao Ruo smiled foolishly after glancing at Bai Qiuyu, who immediately turned into a bitter gourd face, "After Mr. Bai takes office, it is best to formulate an education plan as soon as possible, regardless of whether it is rich or poor, whether rich or poor, all seven-year-old children need to know how to read and read, and there will be special funds to provide the cost of recruiting teachers and purchasing books." ”

Bai Qiuyu's body was shocked when he heard this, and he looked at Yao Ruoyu with some shock, and then quickly got up, shook it deeply, and said excitedly: "City Lord, no, the leader is benevolent, the people in the city will thank the leader for the autumn rain." ”

Waving his hand, Yao Ruoyu smiled and said: "Minister Bai went back, when I saw Mr. Bai, please bring a few words for Yao, a century-old plan, education-oriented, if the people of the two cities can read the sage book, understand the sage and sage, and understand the sage and sage, wouldn't the city-state be a paradise, a holy land, but this work, if there is no Mr. Bai to lead, it will definitely not be able to be carried out." ”

"For the sake of the people in the city, Qiu Yu will definitely persuade his father to take up the post of Minister of Rites!" Bai Qiuyu said solemnly with sincere eyes.
