Chapter 39: An Empire Without an Emperor
On February 28, 1221, Chengdu Mansion Hero Building!
Today's Hero Building is closed, martial law has long been outside the building, nearly 1,000 people holding AK-47s up their heads, full of energy, sharp eyes, strong soldiers surrounded the Hero Building, and there are nearly 100 snipers with Barrett blocking all intersections in the invisible positions around the Hero Building!
Wu Dong sat in the middle of the front of the hall with Allure and Tao Hong, and Tao Hong was separated from him, and more than a hundred chairs were full of seats in front of him, sitting the ministers and deputy ministers of various departments of the Huaxia Federation, and the leaders and deputy leaders of various scientific research groups!
"A few years have passed like this, some of you here have been following me since the establishment of the Iron Blood Gate, some people joined when the Iron Blood Gate was renamed the Huaxia Federation, and some have just come in, in a few years, we have developed from a small sect to the current one, with a huge territory and a base of hundreds of millions of people, I don't know if you here have anything to say?" Wu Dong spoke into the microphone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Emperor!" ......
"Emperor!" Hu Fei began to yell excitedly for Wu Dong to be the emperor, and the rest of the people also echoed loudly!
Wu Dong stretched out his hands and pressed down, and after the people below quieted down, he continued: "There is no need to be called emperor, it is good now, and the development of the country in the future will be decided by you to form a House of Elders!" ”
"So what is the boss going to do?" Everyone was puzzled in their hearts, and Hu Fei asked the question that everyone wanted to ask.
Wu Dong smiled and didn't answer, but secretly said in his heart: "At this time, my power, force, and financial resources have also reached the peak of this world, it's time to go to the Republic of China or the genetic world!" ”
"I suggest that the name of the country be changed to the Chinese Empire, and the annual calendar should be changed to the Chinese calendar, that is, today is January 1, the first year of the Chinese calendar!" Fei Feijiao didn't hear what Wu Dong was going to do, and was a little disappointed, and at this moment he brought up his previous thoughts.
"Do you have any comments?"
"I think it's okay, it's not very suitable for us to continue to use the previous calendar, after all, we have basically unified Asia, if we want future generations to remember this day more easily, we have to change the time to remember, since the time has changed, and it is not bad for a country name, the Chinese Empire does sound more atmospheric than the Chinese Federation!" Minister of Education Hu Wei agreed first.
The rest of the people were not opposed.
"Any problems from each department are raised, and everyone discusses and discusses!" Seeing that there was no objection, Wu Dong changed the name of the country to China, and today's time was also changed to January 1, the first year of the Chinese calendar. Then he questioned the rest of the people.
"Our logistics department is under great pressure now, and now the Chinese Empire has a large population, and it cannot solve the problem of food and clothing for the people at home for a while!" Liu Hao remembered that there was a huge gap in food and clothing reserves, so he first raised the problem of logistics.
"After a while, I will go to Hyundai to purchase another batch of grain, but in the end, I have to rely on the efforts of the Ministry of Agriculture!"
"Rest assured, boss! The problem of grain will definitely be solved next year, and as long as we plant hybrid rice, wheat, cotton, and other crops throughout the territory of our Chinese Empire this year, there will be no such problem next year! Bao Guan Yan patted his chest and reassured.
"We don't have many problems in the Ministry of Industry for the time being, we will continue to build roads and factories this year, and it is expected to complete the construction of oil refineries, shipyards and other factories by the end of the year. The details have been made into a document, and it will be passed on to the boss and you when the time comes! Fei Lilong briefly introduced the plan of the Ministry of Industry.
"The Ministry of Education has decided to popularize basic education in various places, and the Ministry of Finance will need to give support at that time. Only education can ensure the sustainable development of our Chinese empire! Hu Wei continued.
"Our General Staff Headquarters and the Military Department plan to build two military schools this year to train ......officers of all levels for the army," Temujin said, referring to the next move of the General Staff Headquarters.
"I discussed with Jebel and decided to maintain a standing army of more than 200,000 people, start to recruit 500,000 reservists this year, implement a three-year rotation, and select 10,000 elites from the reserve every year to replace the 10,000 with the worst skills in the standing army, so as to ensure that the combat effectiveness of the army will improve year by year!"
"The Ministry of Government has decided to set up the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Armed Forces, the Ministry of Health and other departments that are urgently needed in the near future......" Tang San was not willing to be left behind.
After that, the Ministry of Medicine, the Ministry of Intelligence, and the Ministry of Commerce gave a rough talk about their current situation and future plans.
Huang Yaoshi, the newly appointed head of the scientific research department, looked around at this time and said: "This year, our scientific research department decided to develop our own car, which is a car ...... the fusion of the Southern Song Dynasty formation mechanism and modern engines."
Finance Minister Chang Dezhu found that he was the only one who did not speak, so he faced Wu Dong and said: "Boss, we have some financial problems recently, the people's living standards have improved, and a lot of gold and silver have been collected by them and stored at home, which is not conducive to the development of our Chinese Empire!" ”
"I propose to issue paper money instead of gold and silver as currency, there was Jiaozi circulation in Bashu during the Northern Song Dynasty, and there were Huizi in the Southern Song Dynasty! Banknotes have many advantages that gold and silver cannot match, such as easy to carry, use, etc.! The only drawback is the credit problem, but our Chinese Empire has sufficient supplies and enough to deal with it! What's more, our Chinese empire is in power! ”
"Let's talk about it, what is the opinion of the Minister of Finance?" Although Wu Dong had this intention in his heart, he never paid much attention to it, and only then did he realize the need to issue banknotes.
"I think paper money should also be issued, only in this way that you don't have to carry a few catties or dozens of catties of silver around every day!" Hu Wei nodded.
"Yes! We should set up our own bank in the Chinese Empire and issue the only legal banknotes, so as to facilitate the public, facilitate commercial development, and facilitate the collection of private gold and silver reserves! "Qian Duoduo, who can be called the patriarch of the Chinese Empire, is also very much in favor of establishing banks and issuing banknotes!
"Now start voting on whether to agree to the establishment of a bank and the issuance of banknotes!" Wu Dong proposed to vote, and he first raised his right hand and said, "I agree!" ”
Seeing that the boss first raised his hand to agree, the rest of the people all agreed, even if they didn't agree much in their hearts, they had to agree, who made the boss the biggest?
"There is the issue of wages in government departments, no longer according to the previous salary in the future, the future salary is divided into fixed salary and performance salary, such as the Ministry of Transportation, with more and more vehicles in the future, members of the transportation department around the country have a fixed salary and performance salary, etc., there is a traffic accident and several or dozens of traffic accidents, according to the size of the accident, the salary is reduced accordingly, if there is no traffic accident, the salary increases accordingly! The same goes for various other departments! ”
"The boss's proposal is good, so that you can avoid people who are vegetarian in the corpse position, occupy a position and do not do things, and take the salary that others envy and hate! I think there should be a new one, people who have too many accidents will be dismissed directly from class! Hu Wei applauded!
"This article does not need to be voted on, it is so decided, and after going down, the Ministry of Finance will formulate an assessment standard, and the Ministry of Political Science and Law will start the formulation of various laws and regulations of the Chinese Empire!"
Everyone had no choice but to give up and swallow the words they were about to speak!
"Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I won't say more, the meal is ready, everyone will not return home if they are not drunk! Happy New Year to you all! Wu Dong finally concluded.
Within a few days, the people of the world knew that the current country was a country without an emperor, and the current era name was Zhonghua, and now they were citizens of the Chinese Empire.
But I don't know that although the Chinese Empire does not have an emperor on the surface, it has a real boss, a boss like a hidden emperor!
