Fellow practitioners who live in this mortal world with their beauty

The captives of the combined fleet were taken into Dan Mansion by Sanbao, and brought back to the capital to be handed over to Xuanye and Prince Kang.

“These are the newly recruited miners.”

"Foreign soldiers? They need to be guarded."

Damn, what are you looking at? These are free laborers, tall and strong, perfect for mining.

"It seems that the Grand Master has made another achievement."

Prince Kang knew at first glance that these foreign soldiers were not from the same country. Since they had captured so many people, they must have gained territory for the Qing Dynasty.

"Disciple, the territory of the Qing Dynasty is growing larger and larger. It is no longer appropriate to continue using the previous domain name."

"How is it inappropriate?"

"People tend to be nostalgic. In order to prevent future troubles, especially newly annexed countries, reforms must be made."

"Master, how can we change the name that has been used for thousands of years?"

"You two can discuss this. The surrendered countries can no longer have their own armies. The imperial court will station troops there. Their original soldiers can be randomly assigned to various war zones. The Qing parliamentary system will be adopted for administration, and the borders will also be redrawn."

"Master, the Qing Dynasty can send troops to station here, but should their soldiers return home?"

"Master wants to unify this world. From now on, people of all ethnic groups are the subjects of the Qing Dynasty. They must not be divided into different classes. They must be treated equally. Only then will they have a sense of belonging."

"The people outside the border are not of our race, and their hearts must be different. What if they gather together and rebel..."

"We will adopt the policy of using soldiers from different places in different places, and evenly distribute the soldiers from one region to various war zones. In principle, we will prevent local soldiers from serving in the local area."

"Master Imperial Master, the different ethnic groups speak different languages. If we are assigned together, will there be any communication barriers?"

Prince Kang’s concerns were reasonable. Could it be that military orders needed to be translated?

"This requires civilization and enlightenment. First of all, we need to assimilate in language. Older people can't change in a short time, but young people and children of all ethnic groups must learn to use our Han language."

As a result, there may not be enough teachers.

"Master, how do we draw the boundary?"

"This is simple. The capital city is the administrative center. A square area is designated with this area as the center. A nine-square grid is used. No matter which province or country it belonged to before, as long as they are in the same square, they belong to the same administrative district. This will be conducive to the integration of all ethnic groups."

"Master means that all districts should be the same size, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, regardless of race or population size..."

"We are all one country, why do we have to make such distinctions? The backward can be supported, and those with fewer people can immigrate."

"This method is advisable. Let them know that not only the newly surrendered country is changing, but also the Qing Dynasty is changing internally. This way, there will be no complaints, and they will get used to the new name over time."

Prince Kang Jueluo Jieshu was generally in favor of the nine-square administrative divisions. At least it looked neat and pleasing to the eye on the map.

"The chief executive can be renamed as the district chief, who will be appointed by the central government, and each district will set up a council to assist and supervise, and elect district officials."

"Wouldn't the power of the court be dispersed in this way?"

"Do you still want to continue reviewing memorials? What's the point of keeping these officials in the court?"

"No, no, no... Master, please forgive me. I will be free and easy this way."

There are so many major and minor events in the country that one cannot finish watching them even if one does not blink in a day. Xuanye would not be as stupid as his father, who died of illness at a young age due to exhaustion.

"In addition, the court will also build a large parliament hall, set up a small parliament hall in each district, and hold a national parliamentary congress every five years to elect officials at all levels of the court."

"Ah... no need for the imperial examination?"

"What can a bunch of nerds do? The imperial examination can be retained, but they should be assigned to various districts to start as small officials. What we want are capable managers, not armchair experts."

What's the point of getting the top score in the exam? Are you familiar with how each department operates? Do you have practical skills? Can you lead the entire department?

"This decree of the Imperial Master will face considerable resistance, not to mention the eunuchs, the nobles, and the local gentry will also have objections."

"Master, this is not fair to the royal family either."

"It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. There is no order without rules. If you have any opinions, keep them to yourself. If you dare to make trouble or oppose me, I will arrest you and send you directly to a sparsely populated area."

What is fairness and justice? Is it fair to give you privileges? If that is the case, why would I unify the world?

"Master Imperial Master, the royal family is the root of the Qing Dynasty and cannot be treated the same as other families."

Uh... we really can’t disband the royal family right now.

"The royal family?... Control the various war zones. The army is the army, and the administration is the administration. The royal family cannot give up the military power. The emperor must be the commander-in-chief of the army."

Anyway, all the territories we have conquered belong to the Qing Dynasty. You can't just rebel and fight against yourselves.

"I will obey the laws of the Imperial Master!"

Prince Kang wiped his sweat, finally securing certain privileges for their royal descendants.

"In order to prevent them from having their own troops, the commanders and senior generals of each war zone must be rotated every three to five years."

It’s okay to have military power, but you can’t form cliques.

Prince Kang and Xuanye had no objection to this arrangement. Even brothers have their own minds, and they still settle accounts clearly.

"Also, you have to hurry up and start mining. When I unify the world, we will ascend to the immortal realm, and warships and weapons are indispensable."

"Ascend to the Immortal Realm... Master, I am only at the Spirit Refining Stage, I am far from that."

"That's why we built space battleships. Even ordinary people can ride on them and travel through space."

"Ah... Is the battleship so powerful?"

"You will know once it is built. You should plan and implement it as soon as possible. In addition, you must hurry up and leave offspring. It doesn't matter whether it is the child of Xiao Zhao and Xi Fei, as long as it is a boy who can inherit your throne, it will be fine."

"Master, don't worry. Even if they can't give birth, they can choose one from the royal bloodline to inherit."

"It's up to you. You are a cultivator now, and your vision cannot be limited to this world."

"I, the disciple, should follow my master and ascend to the immortal world to roam the void. How can a mere earthly throne restrict me?"

Xuanye looked excited as he could finally go to heaven.

"Haha, if you want to follow me as your master, your realm is a little low now, so you have to work harder to cultivate."

"Master Imperial Master, if you can ascend to the Immortal Realm, please don't forget to take me there to have a look."

Prince Kang saw that Master Sanbao and his disciples were chatting excitedly and couldn't help but interrupt them. Ordinary people could ride on warships to heaven, and he was a cultivator after all, so naturally he could benefit from it.

"Practice hard. Ordinary people can ride on warships to the sky, but only in a confined space. Your realm is too low to be able to appear in the void."

There is no air in the void, and you can suffocate to death if you hold your breath.

"Master, if you are still in the Spirit Refining Stage and cannot survive in the void, then what realm do you need to be in to do that?"

"To travel in the void, one must surpass the realm of a saint."

"Super...surpass the realm of saints? Forget it, my disciple. Uncle Prince Kang should not count on it either."

Xuanye couldn't help but feel discouraged. With this progress of cultivation, it would be impossible for him and Prince Kang to realize this wish within a hundred years.

"Hehe, it would be nice to take a ride on the battleship and take a look."

Prince Kang is still relatively optimistic. Since the spiritual energy has been exhausted, only a few people can go to heaven.

"During this period, the cabinet must ensure the rapid acceptance of garrison troops, the selection of officials, and the division of administrative districts. You must also collect ore as soon as possible."

"Master, don't worry. We have already identified two mines that can be mined at any time. The mobile exploration team is still continuing its exploration."

Xuanye heard that these minerals could be used to build warships that could travel in the void, or a super bomb that could destroy a city. He had already borrowed many monks from Prince Jian Labu and led an exploration team to travel across the mountains, rivers and valleys of the country.

"Organize personnel to start mining as soon as possible. Ore must be found in Hunyuan Mountain within this year."

Liu Tong wanted to refine light steel for aerospace and extract enriched uranium, but he didn't know how many years it would take, so the preparation of materials had to be advanced.
