"System, draw generals. ”

Zhou Chuan said secretly in his heart. The prestige is enough, Zhou Chuan plans to try his luck once in the draw, even if he only draws a fragment, he will not lose.

With this in mind, Zhou Chuan decided to light a lantern casually and try it.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the five-star military general - Zhou Yu (Mythical Three Kingdoms). ”

"General: Zhou Yu"

"Cultivation: Great Grandmaster First Order"

"Exercises: "Jiangzuo Sword Technique"

"Specialty: Navy"

"Loyalty: 100"

"Time of arrival: 30 days. ”

Zhou Yu?

Zhou Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then his face was overjoyed, he was really sleepy and had a pillow.

Who Zhou Yu is is a well-known figure in history.

The world's heroes and heroes, Jiang Zuo's beautiful husband. This sentence is what describes Zhou Yu.

With 30,000 elites resisting Cao's army of 150,000 people, burning Chibi, he made a great reputation, especially from the mythical Three Kingdoms, obviously Zhou Yu in this will only be stronger.

Zhou Chuan couldn't help but look forward to it, the Three Kingdoms has always been an era that has been recited by future generations, and the names of many characters in it have been passed down for thousands of years.

This is not Zhou Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the real Zhou Yu is famous.

And now, Zhou Chuan actually directly selected Zhou Yu from the world of the mythical Three Kingdoms, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Zhou Yu is a good candidate for a naval general, whether it is Meng Yi or Xu Da in front of him, he is much inferior.

......

Time passed quickly, and twenty days passed in a blink of an eye, and the Wuzhou Dynasty was still running in a tense and orderly manner.

The conscription had already been completed, but only 400,000 recruits had been recruited, which was somewhat unexpected by Zhou Chuan, because in his estimate, how could 1.2 million troops be recruited out of a population of 43 million, but the result was only one-third of what he expected.

The establishment of the new capital is expected to take another three months to complete, so Zhou Chuan still has to deal with government affairs in the lockdown.

"Fan Xiang, how is the distribution of land clearing?"

Zhou Chuan sat on the throne, and there were hundreds of civil and military officials below, and Fan Zhongyan was the first in the lower right.

Meng Yi and Xu Da were not in the palace, and during this time, the two of them had been busy with the drills of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and they had not been to the court for more than ten days.

Therefore, only Fan Zhongyan could speak in the hall.

"Your Majesty, after the encirclement and suppression of the new army, most of the demon beasts in the mountain range have been encircled and suppressed, and 300,000 acres of vacant land have been cleared, and now the sowing has begun, and the other mountain ranges are still being gradually cleaned up. ”

Fan Zhongyan walked to the middle of the court hall and replied respectfully.

"Very good! In addition, how is the enrollment situation of the miscellaneous college that I arranged to open a few days ago?"

Zhou Chuan asked curiously, this miscellaneous academy is all-encompassing, from craftsmen to tailors to alchemists, pharmacists, and so on.

These are also all instructed by Zhou Chuanqian, and these are also to let the people have more money-making skills.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Miscellaneous College has been open for less than ten days, and the people who have enrolled in the school are not active, and the ministers are planning to arrange more manpower to go to the cities to publicize. ”

Fan Zhongyan's rare face turned red, obviously he was also quite tricky in this matter, the people didn't believe that there was such a good thing, and they stopped and watched one by one, but they didn't dare to sign up to participate, for fear of being deceived.

"Oh, I'm in a hurry, and I have to think about it in the long run. Zhou Chuan nodded and said in a deep voice: "In addition, how are the preparations for this year's imperial examination of the Ministry of Officials?"

With a turn of his gaze, Zhou Chuan looked at what Shang Shuwu of the Ministry of Officials standing on the other side had done.

Now the Wu Zhou Dynasty is thriving, but officials have always been in short supply, so Zhou Chuan still attaches great importance to such a major event as the imperial examination.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has followed the direction of the previous imperial examination papers, and when it is about autumn, you can start the imperial examination. ”

He saluted respectfully.

"I don't want to see the fraud in the imperial examination, you have to be strict and don't show favoritism. Zhou Chuan commanded calmly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the old minister will definitely not let this happen. ”

Wu Suowei's face was solemn, and he replied respectfully.

"Another thing, the ordnance factory in Beicheng District has started to operate, but I heard that when the ordnance was being escorted, there was a disturbance to the people on the street, and I hope that the ordnance will be escorted at night in the future. ”

Zhou Chuan said lightly, and Fan Zhongyan nodded a little embarrassed.

These are all matters of the Ministry of War, and he is the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it is indeed his negligence here.

"Your Majesty, the old minister must pay attention. ”

Fan Zhongyan saluted respectfully.

"Now that the dynasty is thriving, these are inseparable from the princes of the court, and I hope that the princes will continue to work hard. ”

Zhou Chuan is very satisfied with the atmosphere in the court, there is no partisan dispute, everyone is doing practical things, and there are almost no idle people.

Although Zhou Chuan implemented the policy of advancing both military and political forces, in fact, to a certain extent, he emphasized military force over literature. It is undeniable that more than seventy percent of the expenditures in the treasury are placed in the army.

There are ministers in the court who oppose this matter, but Zhou Chuan can't stop, the army must be strong, the ministers in the court don't know, but Zhou Chuan knows very well in his heart that it won't be long before war will begin to break out, and once the treasury is getting out of its rays, then other dynasties must be allowed to take this risk.

Afterwards, Zhou Chuan looked at the Hubu Shangshu again and said directly: "Taxation is the foundation of the dynasty, and you must not slack off. Regardless of whether it is a subject of the dynasty or a foreigner doing business, it must be done in accordance with the tax regulations of the dynasty. ”

At present, it can be said that the commercial tax accounts for 45 percent of the total tax revenue, which is a large amount. In addition to the income from the Yuanshi vein, in fact, the additional income of the Wu Zhou Dynasty depended on the profits from the sale of black iron ordnance.

Zhou Chuan understood that this situation could not last long, and there were ministers in the DPRK and China many times, but Zhou Chuan was left in the middle and did not send it, and there was no way to do it.

"Your Majesty, I don't know whether to say something or not. The caravan of the Aolai Dynasty has not paid a single yuan stone tax so far, and the minister thinks it is inappropriate......

Tobe Shangshu looked around, and stepped forward to say.

Zhou Chuan rubbed his head, he knew that with the intricate cooperative relationship between the Aolai merchants and the Wu Zhou Dynasty now, the Hubu Shangshu would definitely not dare to come to the door to collect taxes. Zhou Chuan didn't have to think about it to know that the officials in the household department must have shirked this matter in every possible way, for fear that the tax collection would affect Zhou Chuan's plans.

"Tomorrow, you go to the door to collect, and if he has any doubts, let him come to see me. ”

Zhou Chuan straightened his body and said in a deep voice.

Taxation is the foundation of the dynasty, Zhou Chuan will definitely not be exempted, these are taken from the people for the people, there is no reason for the Aolai merchants to make money here without having to pay a penny, it is too cheap for them.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, will go to collect it. ”

Tobe Shangshu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
