Chapter 166: The Reform of the Ming Government
Munitions are not handicrafts, and after they are bought, they naturally have to be taken out and used.
As more and more rifle orders were delivered, the world began to change the world's landscape.
As a result, in just half a month, the regimes of eleven countries were overthrown and thirty-six small and medium-sized countries perished on each continent in the central region alone!
As a result of the war, fifteen million people were killed, and at the same time, a large number of new classes were added, and the number of snipers began to increase.
The power comes out of the barrel of the gun, and this sentence has been confirmed again in another world.
At the same time, with the export of rifles, more new products of the Ming Empire were sold to various continents, and in the central region, the products of the Ming Empire have long been famous, and everything in the Ming Empire has become synonymous with a new life.
Among them, the biggest change is the city of Kansa, the land of the gods.
At the beginning of the year, Kansa City installed the power system made by the Ming Empire, and all the street lamps were installed in the urban area, and most of the wealthy families in the city were also installed with the lighting system produced by the Ming Empire, which made the whole city become brilliant at night.
At the same time, all kinds of new products from the Ming Empire, including washing machines and refrigerators, have flooded the entire Kansa City market, and this huge heavy city is slowly beginning to transform into a modern city.
At the same time, the Imperial Bank and the Royal Bank of the Ming Empire have all established more than a dozen savings banks in Kansa City, and the currency of the Ming Empire has become one of the main circulating currencies in Kansa City, and people living in Kansa City now have more currency options.
Beginning in April, a new type of fertilizer, a product of the Ming Empire, began to appear on the market in the city of Kansa, along with various pesticides and herbicides. This product immediately attracted the attention of the large agricultural countries on all continents.
At the same time, this product also has another effect, because when the farmer uses these products, it is much better to find these things than to ask the gods for their blessings. As a result, the word technology gradually began to spread in other worlds.
On the eighth day of April in the fourth year of the Ming calendar.
Wen Jiming finally slept for the first time last night after a busy month.
So when he woke up this morning, he finally enjoyed the service he hadn't enjoyed for a long time since he married Jiang Yan and Karina.
Wen Jiming's eight witch wives were all present today, and while serving Wen Jiming to get up and dress, everyone discussed the fact that Wen Jiming had not arranged a personal maid so far.
Wen Jiming himself was surprised!
How could this have been arranged by me?
Shouldn't it be arranged by the head of internal affairs of the Wen government?
So he asked Yun Ling.
"Didn't the matter of arranging my personal maid be in charge of the internal affairs of the Wen Mansion in the past, how could it be arranged by me?"
Yun Ling herself was also asked, and she turned her head to ask Ma Chao's sister Ma Yuan.
"Yuanyuan, do you know who should be in charge of this matter?"
Ma Yuan, who was straight-hearted and fast-talking, also replied with some uncertainty at this time.
"This matter should be in the hands of the queen, after all, this is a matter that belongs to the harem, right?"
Wen Jiming suddenly felt that he seemed to be a little unreliable in doing things, where was there an emperor like him, who could do everything.
Just from this little thing, it belongs to Wen Jiming who doesn't care about some details of his life, but if you zoom in, doesn't it mean that he has not done a good job in management, and even such a small thing is not clear.
Moreover, the current Ming Empire has begun to transform into a modern society, and its imperial government still belongs to the political system of the ancient empire, and such a government agency is obviously not suitable for the development of the whole society, and it must make changes in this regard.
At this time, Yun Ya, who was in charge of massaging Wen Jiming before, suggested.
"Since I don't know who should be in charge, I think Sister Yunling is in charge, anyway, she is in charge of everything in the inner mansion now!"
Hearing Yun Ya's suggestion, Wen Jiming immediately made a decision on the matter.
"Then find Yun Ya to say that it will be done, in the future, Yun Ling will be responsible for the management of all the inner mansions, and Jiang Rong will be responsible for the management of all the outer mansions, so that the two of you can just cooperate with each other, and this matter will be decided."
It is easier to solve the affairs in your own house, but regarding the reform of the Ming government, you must go to the cabinet meeting to communicate with all the ministers.
Regarding the idea of the reform of the government of the Ming Empire, Wen Jiming had a final decision in his heart before.
Although Wen Jiming had no experience in governing a country before, his experience of living on Earth gave him a certain understanding of the structure of most countries.
As the emperor of a dynasty, Wen Jiming naturally has no idea of sharing his power with the people of another world, and he does not have the noble idea of liberating the people of another world.
So, thinking from the point of view of an emperor, he decided to adopt the model of the government structure of some ancient empire on the planet.
After all, this old empire has been playing the role of an advanced industrial country on the international stage of the earth for centuries, and their country is still among the advanced countries.
The system of this constitutional monarchy can be used as a reference by Wen Jiming.
So, after having breakfast, Wen Jiming drove to the government cabinet office building.
At 10 o'clock this morning, there was a collective meeting of the Cabinet.
When Wen Jiming walked into the conference room, not long after the meeting began, Wen Jiming waited for all the topics to be discussed before standing up and speaking to all the cabinet members.
"Recently, I have been thinking about a problem, that is, how to reform our central government to adapt to the increasingly cumbersome government work, and to allow our nobles and people to participate in the development of our Ming Empire at the same time."
"I think all the gentlemen here will remember that I have mentioned the reform of our Ming Empire government more than once before, and I think that this reform can be put into action at this stage."
"Everyone should know that I can't stay in the country all the time, after all, in order to continue to improve my cultivation, I will go on adventures all over the world, so I need to appoint a chief cabinet member to maintain the operation of the whole country in my absence."
"Therefore, I have decided to appoint the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Shosho Fumi-ri, as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, who will be responsible for the day-to-day work of the entire Cabinet Government in the future, and at the same time to adjust the mechanism of the entire central government in this section. Now let me talk about the plan for this government reform. ”
"First of all, the existing six-ministry system will be abolished, and the Cabinet Government will henceforth have the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment and Food, the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Education and Science and Technology, the Ministry of Culture and Sports, the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, and the Ministry of Justice."
"In addition, two houses of the National Assembly were established, and both the nobility and the people were to participate in the supervision and advice of the work of the government, and the qualifications of the members of the Parliament were tentatively prescribed for all the nobles of the land, and for the whole country to elect a gentleman in each county who was enthusiastic about the public affairs of the locality."
"The nobles form the House of Lords of the Nobles, and the gentlemen form the House of Commoners. These two chambers are responsible for the formulation, amendment, and adoption of government laws, the supervision of the cabinet government, the examination and approval and supervision of the state budget, and so on. ”
"I hope that the reform of the government mechanism will be completed within two months, and this matter will be fully responsible for the Prime Minister Boon Lay, do you have any views and opinions on this matter?"
At this time, none of the cabinet members dared to speak easily, and everyone did not know how to judge the impact of this matter on their vital interests, so the conference room was silent at this time.
Wen Jiming was obviously normal to this reaction, so he opened his mouth to end the meeting, which was very surprising to all the cabinet members.
"Since everyone has nothing to say, then I declare that the meeting is adjourned!"
After Wen Jiming left, all the cabinet members did not leave their positions, and after seeing their own majesty leave, everyone burst into discussions.
"Wenli, did you hear any rumors before, which one is Your Majesty going to do?"
Wen Li rubbed his brow and said helplessly.
"I don't have a clue now, but I think that since there are a lot more departments, there is no harm to everyone's interests, so let's think about which people to choose for these extra department heads!"
