"Li Shilang!"

"The minister is here!"

Xiao Ran obviously still has an order to issue.

"Cultivation matters need the cooperation of the academy, and there will also be some cultivation classics in Jinshan Temple, and we have obtained a lot of practice exercises in Zihua Sect, you contact the prefectures and counties to arrange the practice teaching as soon as possible.

Cultural enlightenment and the practice of the exercises need to be carried out simultaneously, and the exercises should be taught to those who are literate first!"

Xiao Ran said slowly.

"The minister takes the order!" Li Shilang got up to receive the order.

"Let's go!" Xiao Ran waved Li Shilang away.

"Someone came to call Chen Xiang, Liu Xiang and Kong Xiang, as well as Shangshu from the Ministry of Water Resources and Agriculture and the Ministry of Construction!"

Xiao Ran was also dizzy from being busy.

In order to deal with it less in the future, this is a time for the ministers to adapt to the new system.

.....

Xiao Ran's series of orders were well executed.

The entire Xiao Dynasty set off a cultivation frenzy, and at the same time, a kind of stone road called the cement road appeared in the imperial dynasty.

After the war, there was a temporary surplus of military resources, and many people were also unemployed.

Xiao Ran began to organize people to repair the road, this kind of road is extremely hard, even if the largest carriage goes up, there is not a single dent, and the speed of the carriage is fast.

However, in order to launch cultivation and road construction at the same time, the Xiao Dynasty, which gathered the national strength of the five countries, also felt the emptiness of the treasury.

In the past few days, the secretary of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Currency have complained bitterly.

Xiao Ran just let him continue to implement the plan, saying that there was a way to solve it.

In fact, Xiao Ran really has a way to solve it, he has accumulated huge wealth in the Tianwen Dynasty's industry before, which can fully support a new dynasty composed of only five countries.

Xiao Ran was bragging and farting with He Weiran in the imperial study, and at this time, a eunuch hurriedly came in to report.

"Your Majesty, a person who claims to be the prince of the Purple Gold Kingdom and Bai Hanfeng is outside the city and asks to see him!"

When Xiao Ran heard this, he was overjoyed.

"I'll pick him up!"

After speaking, Xiao Ran appeared outside the imperial city.

"His Majesty Xiao Ran greeted him personally, and he was terrified!" Bai Hanfeng pretended to be and began to salute.

Xiao Ran took out the crotch of Bai Hanfeng.

"Okay, you Xiao Ran, you are so obsessed with my lower body, are you worthy of Liu Jingang," Bai Hanfeng glared angrily, and then sighed again: "That's it, since you have coveted me for a long time, and now you are in your territory, then I will obey you!"

"Get out!" Xiao Ran was furious.

However, the last two laughed.

They went to the palace together.

The two were drinking tea at this time.

"You sent me a message, I came here, I knew you were short of money, so we scraped together a little extra for you!"

Bai Hanfeng took out a storage ring and threw it to Xiao Ran.

As soon as Xiao Ran smelled it, he knew that it was Liu Jingang, and there was his body fragrance on it.

Xiao Ran opened it and took a look, good guy, it was enough for tens of millions of taels of silver, plus some money from Xiao Chao's own treasury, this is the dividend of the past few years.

"Thank you!" Xiao Ran said with a straight face, he knew that his dividend was only seven million taels at most, and the rest was supported by several small shareholders of Bai Hanfeng, but he was really short of money now.

Let the people work, not only give some food, but also silver, otherwise how to feed the family.

"Your stone road is unusual, I can't see that the Three Realms will not be able to break your way!"

Bai Hanfeng looked at a slightly white road under his feet, and stomped his feet hard, also very curious.

"This is called a cement road! I will connect the main forces of the Xiao Dynasty in a short time, so as to facilitate military mobilization and trade. ”

When Xiao Ran said this, Bai Hanfeng understood, as the prince, he naturally knew what this represented behind him.

No wonder Xiao Ran needs so much silver, but if this matter is done well, the money will drop greatly.

"How much does this cost!" Bai Hanfeng was shocked.

"There is no 15 million taels that can't be come, there is a saying that is good, if you want to get rich, build roads first!" Xiao Ran said slowly.

"Why haven't I heard this saying?" Bai Hanfeng wondered.

Xiao Ran's face stiffened at this time, and then he changed the topic and talked about something that he didn't have.

Bai Hanfeng will not leave in the short term, after all, Xiao Ran's side also needs manpower, and after Bai Hanfeng practiced in the Sage Hall, he also went to the Five Realms to make a statement, which can help a lot.

.....

Xiao Ran's 10 million taels of silver made the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Construction smile, and road construction began to be carried out in various places, going hand in hand.

However, Xiao Ran did not give up his attention to agriculture, and the opening of water conservancy farmland was also in full swing.

Everyone has something to do, which avoids the state of idleness of the people after the establishment of the new dynasty.

But Xiao Ran did not give up the monitoring of the coastline, at present, the Liufeng Country is the closest to the coast, and it is not good for the Xiao Dynasty army to monitor in the sea recently.

On the contrary, this aroused the jealousy of some coastal countries in the south, and they were worried about whether the Xiao Dynasty was going to attack them by sea.

Thus, an anti-Zheng alliance of nations was established.

When Xiao Ran learned of this situation, he also began to plan to send troops to the rest of the country, and it has been five months since Xiao Ran returned to the Xiao Dynasty from the Xue Palace.

The Xiao Dynasty as a whole completed the unification, and the people's sense of identity with the new dynasty was greatly strengthened.

Although it is about to enter the spring ploughing season, Xiao Ran is still preparing to launch wars against other countries.

At the same time, he wants to take down half of the countries of the anti-flute alliance before the arrival of spring ploughing.

As a result, the army of the Xiao Dynasty began to gather, and the eighteen southern countries also got the news and began to form a coalition army.

Soon, a coalition of millions of men and horses appeared on the border of Zihua Kingdom.

The atmosphere inside the Xiao Dynasty is also tense.

It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that wars always kill people.

What's more, Xiao Ran plans to drive the royal expedition in person, but this matter makes Qian Qin and other lords disagree, after all, he is now the emperor, not the prince, although Xiao Ran's cultivation is high,

But there is no guarantee that it will not happen in case, but Xiao Ran insists on doing so, and Qian Qin, as a courtier, can't help it.

today

Xiao Ran started from the gathering of 100,000 soldiers and horses around the imperial city, and the reason why there are only 100,000 now is because there will be soldiers and horses along the way.

This saves even more time.

After the fact, the army walked on the official road of the cement road, and the speed was very fast, and the weight of grain and grass no longer restricted the speed of the march.

Along the way, 200,000 more troops joined, and after walking for about ten days, they reached the border at an unprecedented speed.

The border itself has an army of 400,000 troops, and now it is being defended by relying on the natural danger of the original Zihua Kingdom.

The mountains here are high and densely forested, which actually separates the southwestern countries from the southern countries.

This is also the reason why the 400,000 army of Zihua Kingdom can block the million army in the south.

The military is really unleashed.

However, the opponent's numerical advantage was obvious, which brought a certain amount of pressure to the soldiers.

The news of the emperor's personal expedition sparked a wave of discussion in the pass.

In the eyes of the soldiers, Xiao Ran is like a god of war, invincible.

Even if their military strength is still at a disadvantage, they believe that the winner of this war will be the Xiao Dynasty.

Xiao Ran stood on the high mountain, looking at the endless tents under the mountain, all over the mountains, and he couldn't see the edge at all.

Such a scene is indeed shocking.
