Chapter 16: We can also be called lonely
As early as a month ago, Li Hao sent a letter of state inviting all countries to come and watch the ceremony.
The State of Qi sent Tian Ying, and the State of Chu came to Zhaoyang, so other countries did not give so much face. No one from the Wei State, the Qin State, the Han State, and the Zhao State came, and even the small country of the Song State did not come, and the Yan State sent a doctor over at random.
Now that the attack on Qin by the Six Nations has just ended, whether it is licking the wound or not recognizing Li Hao's identity, Li Hao doesn't care. So better, he can secretly develop a wave.
Tian Ying and Zhaoyang have their own Chen Zhen reception, and Li Hao does not need to come forward.
When Li Hao returns to the country, he must sue his ancestors. This set of process etiquette is all presided over by Yin Wen, and there are nine tin rituals given by Zhou Tianzi, and Li Hao is the genuine prince.
Li Hao ascended the altar, Yin Wen put five grains and three animal sacrifices, and began to read out the sacrifice.
The descendants of Shaohao's ancestors, Tanzi clan, have Hao Gong prepared five grains and three animals, and sacrificed their heads. Say:
The people are prosperous, and the virtue is prosperous. Brilliant my ancestors, eternal merit;
Fudu Quartet, harmony among all nations. Lay the foundation of China, and all ethnic groups are prosperous.
Only strength is dedication, only virtue is action. Yide and benevolence, praised from generation to generation.
coincided with troubled times, and the mountains and rivers were broken; The descendants have been Hao, and there is no such name;
Restore the homeland and love the people; But people-oriented, this solid Bangning;
The water is surging, and the feather mountains are green; The ancient cypress is green, and the spring flowers are fragrant.
Comfort my ancestors and offer incense to my heart. The great gift is complete, and Fu Wei is still feasting!
Symbolically sharing the offerings, Yin Wen shouted again in a loud voice: "Crown." ”
Li Hao looked at the crown and was a little excited in his heart.
Once he wears the crown, he becomes the true king of a kingdom.
"Finished."
"Meet the King."
......
Under the altar, foreign envoys, domestic officials, and onlookers knelt down on the ground.
Li Hao was agitated, and laughed: "Get up!" ”
"The mountains and rivers are broken, the country has been destroyed for a hundred years, the heavens are angry and the people are resentful, and the people are not happy. Today, the country of Tan has been restored, and it should be transformed to symbolize a new life. Since then, my Tan country name has been changed to Tang, and my surname has been changed to Li. ”
It was very common for the ancients to change their surnames, and the ancestor of the Yellow Emperor was originally surnamed Gongsun, and later changed to the surname Ji. And Shaohao was originally surnamed Ji, and later changed to the surname Ying. Li Hao, as a descendant of Shaohao, was originally supposed to be the surname Ji, but I don't know how many times the ancestor changed his surname, but in the end it was his own surname. He simply changed his surname and restored the surname Li.
As for the country name, the Chinese people have the most feelings for Han and Tang, and Li Hao also likes the word Tang, so he simply grabbed it and used it.
"Feng: Chen Zhen is the prime minister of the Tang State and concurrently serves as the minister of the Ministry of Officials."
"Feng: Fan Zhong is the head of the household department."
"Feng: Yi Wei is the Minister of Commerce and the Deputy Minister of Households."
"Feng: Yin Wen is the Minister of Rites and the Deputy Minister of Agriculture."
"Feng: Zheng Shan is the vice minister of the Ministry of Industry."
"Feng: Lian Po is the deputy minister of the military department and the brigade commander of the Xuanwu Army."
"Feng: Wang Qing is the magistrate of Tancheng County."
......
"Thank you."
A series of official canonizations made everyone below feel excited.
Chen Zhen was even more moved inexplicably, not only was he named prime minister, one person was above 10,000 people, but he also served as the minister of the minister, and they were all regular positions. Unlike other people who have a deputy position, it is enough to see Li Hao's trust and value for him.
Yiwei was even more excited, the first time the businessman embarked on a career, like other companies, the status and official positions are not different, and there is even a full position, a deputy minister. When Li Hao was canonized, the first one to be sealed was his merchant Yiwei. With such an honor, he could not be happy.
As for Yin Wen, after all, he is a famous philosopher of the Warring States period and a doctor under the sword. Li Hao initially wanted the other party to be the head of the minister, but later thought about it. Because this product is a Taoist person, the concept is to rule by doing nothing, and it is to advocate the concept of 'the great road is tolerant of the people, and the great virtue is tolerant'. If the other party is put in charge of the ministry, Tang Guo is afraid that there will be corrupt officials everywhere in the future.
"The founding of the country in the hot land, the world celebrates, and when we share this joy with the people of the Tang Kingdom, we will issue a few decrees alone."
"One: Amnesty for the world, all prisoners in the four cities of the Tang Kingdom will be pardoned and sent home."
"Two: Exempt from grain tax for three years, and the people of the Tang Kingdom will own all the grain they grow within three years."
"Three: Abolish the well-field system, and the Ministry of Agriculture will send people to measure the land and divide the land according to the head of each household. Land cannot be bought, sold, or transferred, and can only be used for agricultural production. ”
"Fourth: the salary system, if the Tang family and officials want to hire people, they must pay labor remuneration."
"Five: Infant Incentive Policy, all the people registered in my Tang Kingdom, the first year of the Tang Kingdom, that is, this year, and the babies born thereafter, as long as they go to the county government to register, they can get a hundred catties of food rewards every month until the baby is fifteen years old. In addition, each infant can be exempted from food tax for two years. ”
"Six: The Tang State does not compete for hegemony in the world, does not want to use military force, does not want to expand the size of the army, and only wants to make the people of the fiefdom live a rich life. Therefore, the age of conscription is set at 20 years and the retirement age at 30 years. ”
"All soldiers who join the army can receive 300 catties of food per month. After a soldier has been in the army for a few years, his family is exempt from food tax for a few years. In addition, all direct descendants of soldiers can attend private schools for free, and private schools can teach children to read and write. ”
"After retiring from service, soldiers can be included in the national public service system, and they will be given priority to serve in the Public Security Department of the Ministry of Justice according to their rank, and enjoy a stable monthly salary for public officials."
"Seventh: open private schools, middle schools and universities, each township will open a private school, for children to read and write, those who have made a great contribution to the country are free of charge, and those who have no contribution can pay fees to enroll. There is a middle school in every city, and a university in the capital of the country. Those with excellent university grades can enter the national civil service system to participate in the work. ”
"Eight: The widow promises: to solve the problem of feeding the people of our Tang Kingdom within two years, so that there will be no hunger in the Tang Kingdom; Within five years, we will solve the problem of cold and warmth for the people of our Tang Kingdom, so that the people of our Tang Kingdom will no longer be afraid of the harsh winter. ”
"Long live the Tang Kingdom, long live the monarch."
......
From the beginning of the third policy, the people fell to their knees one by one. His eyes were moist and he looked at Li Hao, his eyes full of reverence and convincing.
From land and food, children's education, migrant salaries, tax reductions and exemptions, etc., and even infant rearing and dressing, the monarch is worried about them and cares about whether they are doing well. Such a king regarded them as human beings in his heart, not those nobles and magnates, and treated them as animals.
In a semi-slave society, the people themselves have a low status, how good their lives can be, let alone in the Warring States Period, which has been in war for 400 years.
The people in the audience were red-faced, and their voices were already hoarse, but they still didn't stop shouting, shouting the name of the country and the monarch they recognized, in fact, they were also venting their depression of being oppressed for so many years.
This situation moved Chen Zhen and Zhaoyang was surprised, but Tian Ying was disdainful.
Tian Ying felt that if he helped the people like this, the treasury could not save money and food at all, and no matter how well the country was governed, it was just a piece of fat. Just like the Song Kingdom, they can take a bite whenever they want to eat, and there is no threat at all.
At the end of the sealing ceremony, Li Hao's words were like a hurricane, quickly spreading throughout the Tang Kingdom, and then radiating outward and spreading farther and farther.
With a few policies, Li Hao has completely won the hearts and support of the people in the hot land, and even the number of people who transplant sweet potatoes has increased several times.
The county government hall is a meeting hall temporarily renovated by the Ministry of Industry.
"Your Majesty, the Tang Kingdom was officially founded, and it is not in line with the etiquette system for the monarch to live in the county government, and the palace should be built for the monarch to live and discuss politics, so as to show the majesty of my Tang Kingdom." Yin Wen stood up and admonished.
Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "The palace is naturally good, it is big and spacious, and I want to live alone." But now is not the time, there are too many things in the Ministry of Industry during this time, and the palace will wait for a while. However, you can plan ahead. ”
"Zheng Shan, how is the production progress of the four treasures of the study?"
"On the court, the four factories have been in operation for more than a month, and the finished products of brushes, inkstones and ink ingots have been produced one after another, and the production capacity can be increased with the proficiency of the process. It will take a month for the paper to produce the finished product, and the special paper required by the gentleman may be half a month late because of the addition of several more processes. ”
"We must strictly control the quality and pay attention to the confidentiality of the production process. The Ministry of Industry should prepare to expand production in advance, and if the quality is okay, it will start to add more factories. ”
"By the way, I asked you to find the white soil, is there any news?"
"After the gentleman explained, Zheng Shan has been arranging for someone to inquire about the news of Baitu. The day before yesterday, I learned from the mouths of the people who entered the city that there was white sand twenty miles north of the city, but most of it was in the shape of stones, and I don't know if it was what the king wanted. ”
Li Hao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Eight or nine are not far from ten, yes or no, just go over and see tomorrow." If it's really the white clay I want, you'll do a great job. ”
The clay that Li Hao is looking for is the kaolin from which porcelain is fired. As a high-achieving graduate of Gome, he once took over some private work, including modern porcelain design and painting. Although I haven't studied it in detail, I know a little bit about the porcelain.
Speaking of porcelain, everyone is familiar with Jingdezhen, but the domestic kaolin resources are very rich, Shandong is a large province of kaolin production, and the Taiyi Mountains are rich in kaolin mineral resources. Linyi is on the Taiyi Mountains, Tancheng is north of Linyi, and there should be kaolin in the territory. Zheng Shan said that white soil was found in the north of the city twenty miles, which is the direction of Linyi, and it should be kaolin.
With kaolin, Li Hao's porcelain project can finally be carried out. At the same time, the missing link of the tea can also be filled.
Drinking tea should also have a corresponding tea set, Yuntai Mountain and Huaguo Mountain's cloud tea, next spring will come down, now waiting for the birth of porcelain. If those powerful people are allowed to drink tea in bronze, it really does not reflect the beauty and artistic conception of tea.
The 21st century is the era of information explosion, I have never eaten pork and seen pigs run, and I have never brushed anything in a certain sound. Those who sold Jianzhan Ru porcelain on the live broadcast site, and roasted tea and sold a lot of tea on the spot. As long as he calms down and explores, the craftsmanship should not be difficult for him, and he can always get something. No matter what the result is, even if the finished product is almost good, it is a big deal to gradually improve it in the later stage.
"Fan Zhong, you've been working hard lately. The Ministry of Household Affairs must conduct a national census as soon as possible and re-establish the household registration database of the Tang State. In addition, to arrange for people to go to various countries to pick up displaced people and expand the population of the Tang Kingdom, the Ministry of Industry should cooperate with the Ministry of Household Affairs to establish shelters for displaced people. Jixia Xuegong scholar, you can choose Fan Zhong. ”
"Chen Zhen, the Ministry of Officials must assist the ministries to fill the vacancies of the ministries completely, and first establish a management system framework."
"Yin Wen, the fifty acres of experimental fields planted in the east of my city, the Ministry of Agriculture has given me a careful look. There is another thing in the Ministry of Agriculture, that is, to measure and divide the land, and the local gentry are afraid that they will not cooperate. ”
"Lian Po, the Qinglong Army is ready at any time, and must cooperate with Yin Wen to do farmland reform, if anyone dares to take the lead to obstruct it, they don't need to ask for instructions to cut it directly."
"Yi Wei, your stores are open all over the country, and the widow wants you to set up a new department in the Ministry of Commerce, which is responsible for collecting and transmitting intelligence."
......
Although the Tang Kingdom is small, it is now in ruins, and there are so many complicated things that Li Hao also has a big head. It's just a matter of arranging work, and a day has passed.
The next day, Li Hao took Zheng Shan and rushed to Miaoshan.
It's just that when I went out, I happened to see Chen Changsheng, this kid. Fan Zhong is now the head of the household department, and this kind of department that specializes in money and food is better to put the most trusted person. Therefore, Li Hao has no servants by his side.
It just so happened that Chen Changsheng's brain was not bad, Li Hao simply took him with him, and the convoy swept out of Tancheng.
