There can never be only one voice in this world, especially academically, even if Wen Yi is the monarch, he can't forcibly change everyone's minds.

There are many people who oppose "The Theory of Innovation", even more than those who oppose "Rights and Responsibilities".

In the face of the opponents, Wen Yi was very happy instead of angry, and ordered the newspaper to publish the more classic articles of the opponents.

He even took the initiative to meet with the elite of the opposition, debated with them, and then encouraged them to compile the reasons for their opposition into a book.

He didn't do it for the sake of stability.

From a scholar's point of view, he wanted to kill all the dissidents and make his ideas the absolute mainstream.

But from a monarch's point of view, from a politician's point of view, he needs the world to keep a different voice alive.

The reason is simple, nothing is infallible from a dialectical point of view, and there are also many problems with the book he wrote.

For example, it is easy to be used by careerists.

The best way is to find an opposing voice for this kind of thinking, and to cool down this frenzy with opponents.

Let the reformers keep their sanity sober, and let the careerists have nothing to hide.

But opponents must be justified, not simply for the sake of opposition.

In short, in the second half of this year, Tang Guo has been revolving around this book, and with the propaganda and debate, the ideas of this book are also well known to most people.

It's another year of disturbances, and in general, the Tang Kingdom can be described as smooth weather.

Wu Yi, the head of the household department, proudly announced that every family in the Tang Kingdom had more than three years of surplus grain, every family had surplus money, and each family had at least one set of furniture.

Ordinary people also have two pieces of clothing without patches, and they can wear clothes made of silk...... The level of affluence has far exceeded that of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty.

It can even be said that the wealth of the Tang Kingdom has reached a new high in all dynasties. Whether there will be any latecomers who don't know, but it's definitely unprecedented.

Jin Rushan, the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, reported on the business situation, and the domestic commercial tax revenue reached a new high, but the bulk was foreign trade.

The profit is calculated according to tens of millions, especially the new commodity clocks launched at the end of the year, which contributed 1.5 million yuan in profits in just two months.

Moreover, they have opened up a trade route to Tianzhu, and the profit from foreign trade next year will exceed 20 million.

This data is more than the sum of all countries, and there is absolutely no moisture in the world.

But Tang Guo also spent a lot of money, and in order to spend more Kaiyuan Tongbao, they were also open to buying various goods.

Silk silk, cotton, pig bristles, tung oil, medicinal herbs, cattle and sheep, etc.

Well, Indian cotton was introduced to Yunnan through Myanmar as early as the pre-Qin period, and the "Shangshu Yugong" recorded, "The island is easy to wear, and the shells are woven with silk".

Translated, a vassal state on the southeast coast paid tribute to the Xia Shang Dynasty a cotton cloth called weaving shells.

In the previous life, in the tomb of the pre-Qin ship coffin in the Baiyan Cliff Cave of Wuyi Mountain, Chong'an, Fujian, there were cotton cloth fragments.

However, at this time, cotton was only planted in a small amount in Yunnan, Sichuan, and Lingnan, and was purchased in large quantities after Wenyi established the Tang Kingdom.

Now the Ningzhou and Lingnan slang people have expanded the cotton planting area, and the products are mainly sold to the Tang Kingdom.

Guozijian Zheng Zhou Qize reported that the reform of Guozijian has been completed, and a three-level college system of Mongolian learning, middle school, and university has been initially established.

At the same time, literacy has been completed for all the country's 10- to 30-year-olds, and the literacy rate between 40 and 50 years old has reached 80 per cent (this figure is only for residents who have been settled for more than two years).

Zhang Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was not willing to be left behind, announcing that the steel output had reached 900 tons, and it would be able to break through the 1,000-ton mark early next year.

This is a very encouraging statistic, and the attention to it is even greater than literacy and food production.

Because the people of Tang have been short of food since a few years ago, and the literacy rate is also very high, they have immunity when they hear similar news.

Steel is different, everyone knows the importance of this thing, it is a symbol of strength, and there are not too many of them.

The military is happiest, and as steel production increases, so does the quota they get, and they can produce more guns.

Although the muskets are not directly loaded, they are sealed in warehouses. That's okay, as long as it's made, sooner or later it's all theirs.

……

What really catches the eye is the reform made by Wenyi in the system.

Xiao Baishan, the governor of Luzon, was officially transferred to the central government to serve as the Jamesburg James. The Jamesburg Mansion is located in the same six departments, and is in charge of the education of princes, princes, and princesses, as well as internal and external affairs.

The governor of Luzon was to facilitate the overall management of the temporarily established official position, and Wen Yi was originally going to remove it, but after a detailed discussion with Xiao Baishan, he decided to keep it for a while.

and appointed Pan Yue as the new governor of Luzon, overseeing the military and political power.

However, the administrative division was also carried out, and the entire island of Luzon was divided into three states, eighteen prefectures and eighty-one counties.

Prefecture, prefecture, and county are the local three-level administrative institutions set up by Wenyi, and the prefecture is equivalent to the province in the previous life, and the prefecture is the prefecture-level city.

The supreme governor of the prefecture is the governor of the prefecture, the government is the assassin history, and the county is the county order.

Originally, he wanted to use names such as Dao, state, and county, but later he still felt that the state capital and county were more pleasant. But the name doesn't matter, the meaning is the same.

Luzon is an experimental site for this three-level division, and when a suitable system is found, it will be implemented throughout the country, and after the world is unified in the future, it will be used all over the world.

Luzon is a large island, and it is not very appropriate to divide it into 81 counties. The area of each county is too large to be managed, and it can be divided into two hundred counties.

However, considering that Luzon Island has a small population and most of the area is deserted, it is a complete waste of manpower to set up more counties, so it was temporarily set up as 81 counties.

In the future, when the population increases, it will be divided again according to the situation.

This division of administrative divisions was a great event for the bureaucracy, as at least 2,000 official posts were created, ten times as many as that.

Overall, there were 20,000 or 30,000 more officials. This is also due to the sparse population of Luzon, otherwise it would have been more.

The emergence of a large number of vacancies even made Tang Guo unable to come up with enough officials for a while. At this time, the advantages of education for all are reflected, and the most important thing is to read.

Maybe the average reader can't directly handle the work that is too complicated, but it's okay to work at the grassroots level.

Let them go to the grassroots level to cultivate slowly, and then select the best for promotion.

Even so, the selection, training, and appointment of more than 20,000 officials have tired the imperial court from top to bottom.

Wen Yi took the opportunity to say: "Now you know why I don't send troops to the Central Plains now, right?" It is so difficult to select officials in Luzon, and the Central Plains, where the situation is more complicated, will be even more troublesome. ”

"Just like our people who sprinkle pepper noodles and distribute them to the whole country, we can't do anything, and in the end, the fruits of victory will be picked up by the scholars and Haoqiang."

Mo Jun, who is a core member of the radical faction, also had to say: "What the king said is that we think things too simply. ”

Wen Yi said: "It's not too late to know now, with this experience, you also know how to select and train qualified officials." ”

"Next, follow this routine and train more reserve officials...... They can be sent to the townships and towns for internship and training, so as not to become dumb officials who can only talk on paper. ”

Mo Jun, Gu Yi, and Zhou Qi replied together: "Obey." ”
