mechanical court

"In addition, I have one more thing to announce today. After a one-month training, from now on, the cabinet office will officially start to operate. All ministers, if you have something to do, you need to upload it to the cabinet before submitting it to me for approval. Review. The cabinet writes the review proposals on paper, pastes them on the opposite side of the report and submits them to me, and I will decide the final result.”

After these words, the audience fell silent, and all the nobles with normal IQs understood one thing - the ever-increasing King Ivan granted the power to discuss the cabinet, and could make decisions on important government orders together with the monarch.

This means that the power of the cabinet senators is faintly above the six halls, and they are directly subject to the royal power. They are afraid that the six major families who are going to be angry will not be able to take care of themselves.

Chapter No.17

The huge King Quan Palace was completely silent, only the heavy breathing of the officials remained.

The cabinet members were anxious and full of anticipation, and the middle and lower class nobles were secretly observing with their own ulterior motives. The members of the six major families were not panicking at this time, and felt a sense of relief—stretching the head was a knife, and retracting the head was also a knife. What came came after all.

"In addition, I ordered a batch of grain seeds from Tianwairen. They can be harvested all year round, and the yield per mu can reach [-] pounds. They are also resistant to cold and waterlogging, and rich in nutrition regardless of the season. The royal manor has been ordered to be planted. If necessary, you can exchange foreign currency through the Royal Bank to buy. If there is no channel or you are too lazy to run, the Royal Manor also sells some. The increase in grain production is beneficial to the country and the people, and all seeds are sold at a fair price.”

Ivan took a cup of hot drink from Renee, took a sip, and winked at the court attendant beside him.The latter immediately took out the leaflets he had prepared and handed them to his subordinates to distribute them according to the order of the seats.

This news was a boost to the heart, and the nobles, big and small, all cheered up. They scrambled to take the leaflets, and after seeing the contents clearly, they started discussing loudly with joy.

The Menesian Empire is still a typical agricultural society. The output of crops is almost equal to wealth, so the top to bottom attaches great importance to farming.More than half of the various sacrificial activities in the temple are for the regular flooding of the holy river and the water level will not decrease-the silt brought by the flooding of the holy river is high-quality fertilizer, and even rough sowing can still reap the harvest.

Under normal circumstances, a yield of [-] pounds per mu is considered a bumper harvest, but now that seeds with a yield of [-] pounds per mu and four-year crops have come, the yield can be said to have increased by a hundredfold.As long as the seeds of these outsiders are sown, wouldn't their annual income also increase a hundredfold! ?

God bless Atum, King Yiwen has finally done a good deed!

"But my seeds can't be taken in vain."

Seeing that they were discussing so happily, Yiwen poured cold water on them at the right time:

"As long as you buy seeds in the royal manor, you must show the land certificate regardless of high or low. And cooperate with the re-measurement of the land property, and finally distribute the grain seeds according to the area of ​​​​the property. The new grain is exempted from tax in the year, and the agricultural tax will no longer be based on the head Calculated, but paid according to the yield per mu. The tax rate is still thirty-one, and I have a good heart, and I will not burden you. Compared with a hundred times the yield, this payment is insignificant, and the officials must have a bottom line."

This is very democratic and free. If you want to get seeds, you have to measure the land property and divide it into mu. If you oppose the measurement of land and divide it into mu, you will have no seeds.

As for measuring the land, which seemed to be a labor-intensive task in the past, it is not difficult in his hands.With a scan of the satellite map of the space fortress, the local climate, geology, and traffic conditions are clear at a glance. There is no operation of reporting good land to bad land and bad land to good land.

Moreover, the employees of the Hyperion Development Consortium have no social relationship with the imperial bureaucrats at all, so there will be no such thing as concealment or deliberate concealment.In this way, the new tax system will quickly cover the whole country, and both agricultural output and agricultural tax will increase.

The above is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that with the new valley, there must be fertilizers and pesticides, otherwise the soil fertility will not keep up.Relying on the monopoly trade of the Hyperion Development Consortium, they can also grab a fortune from the noble lords.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

For a monarch with such a routine, the aristocrats only felt that the arrangement was clear, and they really had nothing to say, so they immediately praised and expressed their support.After all, what Wang said was correct. Compared with the 6 times the yield brought by the new species, the small amount of money per mu can only be regarded as a small amount of money.

"The promotion of new species can be said to be the foundation of the country, and there should be no negligence. More specific plans will be drafted by the cabinet." Seeing that the situation passed smoothly, Ivan gave the first task to the cabinet.

This task is both a test and a test, to see if they can make full use of the advantages of the new species distribution and the Hyperion Development Consortium, and successfully complete the matter of distributing the goods to the mu.If it can be completed, it proves that this group of people has the potential to help him share government affairs, and they will naturally be entrusted with important tasks in the future.

"As ordered!"

Seven low-ranking senators stood up quickly and shouted their orders.

"This matter must be done beautifully, and don't disappoint my expectations of you." Ivan gave them a deep look, and then turned his attention to the chief officer's seat in the sixth hall:

"Fawangyuan and Buzhenyuan take orders."

"The subject is here!"

"The subject is here!"

Hastings, the chief officer of the Fawang Court, and Xerxes, the chief officer of the Buzhen Court, immediately stood up, took a step forward, and saluted their chests facing the Sun Throne.

"The cabinet is responsible for the implementation of the new species this time. You and the two houses should cooperate with each other and do your best. If you dare to do one thing in person, I will not forgive you!" Yiwen stared at them with scorching eyes, using the most stern words The tone gave a warning.

"As ordered!"

"As ordered!"

Hastings and Xerxes trembled uncontrollably, and quickly bent over to accept the order.

"Today's discussion ends here."

Ivan stood up from the Sun Throne and was about to leave. Then he seemed to remember something, stopped and said:

"My officials, don't rush to leave. There is one more thing I almost forgot to say. Next month, I will lead an army to go out to fight against the evil disasters from south to north. I have to prepare the money from the Accounting and Investigation Institute and the soldiers from the Garrison Institute. ,do you know!?"

"The minister will definitely be ready."

"Thanks to the extra income from the salt and iron monopoly, military spending is not a problem."

Ganis, the chief officer of the Garrison Institute, and Dai Ni, the chief officer of the Survey Institute, stood up immediately after hearing his words, and answered with certainty one after another.

"Well, let's go."

Ivan waved his hand in satisfaction, strode down the stairs, rolled up his eagle wings and wide sleeves behind his back, and led the guard of honor towards the corridor of mirrors.

one-one-one-one-one

After leaving King Quan's Palace, Yiwen removed the guard of honor and walked straight along the mirror corridor, his pace gradually slowing down.Looking out from the side window of the corridor, in the cracks in the clouds, the orange-yellow edge against the sun, the sunlight pierces through it like a folding fan that is quickly unfolding.It shines on the window, and casts its shadowy shadow on the surface of the corridor floor.

"It's annoying." He couldn't help but sigh.

Presiding over the government affairs of a country is really exhausting, and the key is to have self-knowledge and know how to measure. It is really difficult to be a wise king.It's still comfortable to be a faint king, drunk on paper and rich in money, in a pool of wine and a forest of meat, no matter how cool you are.

But there is no way, the fourth-level mechanic goes up to the inheritance level, which requires Jinshan Yinhai's resources to be piled inside.

The reason why the inheritance level is called the inheritance level is that in addition to the fact that mechanics at this level can promote the evolution of mechs, it is also because of its cross-age characteristics.Diligence and perseverance are only the foundation. Opportunity and resources are indispensable. They cannot be mass-produced on a large scale, and they cannot control the pace of their promotion-maybe the breakthrough is in the next second, or the seemingly close distance is eternal.

As long as there is no breakthrough, a large amount of resources must be piled up all the time, and the consumption is terrible.Only a behemoth like the Federation can support a bunch of full-time inheritance-level mechanics.However, since it does this, it will not lose money, and only the mechanic himself knows how much bitterness there is.

Ivan didn't want to be restricted by various strict treaties like them, working day and night for the federal government for resources.Moreover, the Federation is someone else's territory. He has a shallow foundation there and is subject to various restrictions because of his foreign nationality.

It is the most sensible choice to leave that place of right and wrong and slowly manage this family business.

But fortunately, anyway, with his current level, he can no longer improve by penance, and he has plenty of time to rectify the empire.

"Don't slack off! Governing a country is more difficult than managing a consortium. I must be strict with myself. What are the requirements of a Mingjun? Abstinence from extravagance and thrift, taking the health and well-being of the subjects as their own responsibility, diligence, benevolence, cherishing the people's strength, being brave in innovation, not Afraid of hardship..."

After staying for a short while, after finding the feeling, Yiwen continued to walk along the corridor of mirrors while counting Ming Jun's standards in his memory.

Outside the door is a courtyard originally decorated with flowers, and inside is a hall. Although the room is only of ordinary size, the building is light and elegant.There is a bust sculpture of the Goddess of Beauty and a small veranda supported by the bow-shaped structure of the arch.The floor is paved with white marble, and the four corners are decorated with graceful columns of Menesian columns, and a statue of a god engraved with a sun wheel pattern is supported on one of the columns in one corner.

In addition, it is more of an atmosphere unique to the industrial age. With straight lines and silver steel windows, it gives people a feeling of novelty, generosity and comfort.This combination of modern and classic style reminded him of Elleme's bedroom.

"Half the style of Menis, half of the style of the Federation, it should be her handwriting." Ivan thought about it, and the figure of Elulome flashed in his mind again.

Thinking about it carefully, after taking over this kind of mess, she can suppress the evil disaster internally, and can ask for benefits from the consortium externally, so she can no longer demand anything.The only mistake is probably that in order to gain time to improve his strength, he deliberately weakened the royal power and completely handed over the administrative power to the six halls.
