Chapter 109: Song Xuan's Plan for the Future of the Empire

After the court, Song Xuan went to Jingren Palace, and today he was a little angry.

As for him, who swore not to come to Jingren Palace within three days, he would be a dog when he came, and he had already put this matter behind him at this moment.

Men, dogs are just dogs, Song Xuan said what a big deal!

played a role-play with Liu Qinglian, and after the anger was almost gone, Liu Shengnu lay in Song Xuan's arms and said softly: "Today is so powerful, I got angry in the court and ran to my place to put out the fire?" ”

"It's not that I'm angry, but I sometimes feel helpless, and not every good policy will definitely benefit the country and the people."

Lying on the soft big bed, Song Xuan said helplessly: "It is much more difficult to govern the world than to fight the world, many things cannot be done in all aspects, and no matter how good the decision is, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no omissions." ”

Liu Qinglian chuckled: "If there is a leak, then plug it, brother, aren't you very good at this!" ”

She rubbed on Song Xuan's body and whispered: "As long as this world is still under your control, brother, you will have time to knead the direction of this country into the shape you like, just like you knead me." ”

Song Xuan glanced at her.

"Brother, haven't you noticed that since you ascended the throne, you always feel as if you have been in a hurry, and many decrees that obviously take several years or even more than ten years to perfect and promulgate, you wish to be dealt with within a year this year."

Liu Qinglian's eyes stared at him without blinking, and she became rare and serious.

"What the hell are you anxious about?"

This sentence made Song Xuan fall into deep thought.

Ever since he knew that he only had one year to improve his cultivation, he had a subconscious sense of urgency, eager to make the whole country rich and powerful, and then he could have more free time to cultivate.

But at this moment, he suddenly came to his senses.

What is there to worry about, after this year, he will have endless time to deal with government affairs, and some time to guide the whole kingdom in the direction he wants to see.

In this world, he will theoretically have an endless lifespan, which also means that he can have countless opportunities to try and make mistakes, to make corrections.

This is true for governing the country, and so is for cultivation!

Then I'm in a hurry!

......

The Imperial Study.

After Song Xuan enjoyed the gentle township, he came here again with great perseverance.

Although there is no hurry, there will be time in the future to change this empire into what you want, but even so, at this stage, the excerpts of the batch still have to be approved, and the things that should be done still have to be done.

At this moment, he was reviewing the recital.

Most of them are excerpts handed by officials from all over the country to show loyalty, this kind of excerpt is very boring, but it still has to be restored, at least one word 'read' still has to be there.

Of course, Song Xuan, who watched some excerpts, was very painful.

Like what

County order of so-and-so: Your Majesty, how are you?

Prefect of so-and-so: Your Majesty, how are you?

City supervisor of a certain place: Your Majesty, how are you?

How am I? I'm so damn good!

Song Xuan was very annoyed to see this kind of fold, but you can't just throw this kind of fold aside, and you have to give a reply of "I am very safe".

After all, the new dynasty had just been established, and a large part of the officials in various places were still officials during the Yuan Dynasty, and most of the officials were in a state of unease and even panic at this time.

Although these excerpts make people speechless, if they do not reply, it is easy to frighten them into panic all day long, so that they have no intention of holding the government.

At least until the imperial examination is over and there are enough officials in the imperial court to replace them, Song Xuan still has to deal with it.

After reviewing some sand excerpts, Song Xuan sat on the chair, and the plan to set up a cabinet had already risen in his heart.

At first, he felt that with the energy of his innate martial artist, he was just handling government affairs, wouldn't he be able to capture it?

But now it seems that he still overestimated the quality of officials in various places in this era, if there was a pile of similar sand witherers to be corrected every day, he would not want to find time to cultivate this year.

After a moment of contemplation, he pulled out a piece of rice paper and kept writing on it.

"Grain, overseas grain shipment, or overseas direct robbery!"

"Land, the issue of late annexation, foreign expansion!"

At this moment, Song Xuan wrote down what he thought of, as a feudal empire, there are countless problems, but there are not many fundamental problems.

Grain, land, as long as these two do not collapse, the feudal empire can be maintained for a long time, even if corruption is rampant, but as long as the people still have land in their hands, the food grown can still sustain the family to eat, and the possibility of rebellion is not great.

The food problem is not difficult to solve today.

Now the people of the entire Wu Dynasty are in an extremely excited progress of land reclamation, and only need to recuperate for a few years, this new empire can completely gain a foothold and solve the problem of food for the people.

After two years, when the navy is built, the order will be given to Tang and lead the troops to go to sea in search of high-yield crops, and at the same time, they can trade with overseas countries and import a large amount of overseas grain, which can further solve the problem of food crisis.

Today's Wu Dynasty is not short of silver, and things that can be solved with money are not a problem.

After a moment of contemplation, Song Xuan continued to write on the paper.

"Build roads, population."

If you want to get rich and build roads first, the roads are impassable, not to mention the prosperity of commerce and trade, even if the imperial court decree is issued, it is a problem, and if you want to strengthen the control of the central court over the locality, building roads is a necessary step.

Then there is the issue of population.

The provinces of the Northlands have been plagued by wars for many years, and have been ruled by foreign regimes for hundreds of years, and the population has withered to an extremely dangerous level.

According to the preliminary statistics given by Li Shanchang, the total population of the huge empire is now about 30 million.

In Song Xuan's view, this is completely insufficient, such a small population, not to mention supporting external expansion in the later stage, even the development of domestic demand and the cultivation of talents are completely insufficient.

The population is too small, domestic demand is insufficient, basic industries are weak, and there is not even the possibility of an industrial revolution.

The resumption of production as soon as possible to increase the number of population is also the primary problem after the establishment of the Wu Dynasty, only after this problem is solved, the later opening of the Age of Exploration and foreign expansion can be implemented!

"Sweet Potato, Potato, Corn, Rice Improvement ....."

Song Xuan wrote a lot intermittently, and as his writing stopped, the future direction of the entire empire had a clear context in his mind.

There are too many things to deal with in governing a country, but as long as you grasp a few key issues, the country will not go astray.

During this period, the most important point is that there is a need for a strong emperor who has absolute control over the entire court.

And Song Xuan, as the founding emperor who ruled the world by force, is still very confident in this regard.

This confidence comes from the strength of his own innate warriors, from the Tsing Yi Wei all over the country, and from the ministers of the dragon who are civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!
