Chapter 244: Changes in Xuzhou

"The time and number of inspections by the Department of Supervision in various counties and counties is uncertain. As long as the prefects and county magistrates can be diligent, the Department of Supervision will not embarrass you. In addition, if you have objections to the practice of the Department of Supervision, you can appeal directly to me. Trial."

Chu Tian considered that the Supervisory Department might become a mad dog who would bite anyone when he saw it. In order to protect the chiefs of the counties and avoid causing panic among the ministers, Chu Tian granted his subordinates the right to appeal.

If the Supervisory Department bites people, once the appeal is successful, the Supervisory Department will catch fire.

This is considered a check and balance.

Hearing that I can appeal, the expressions of the civil servants present here slightly eased. They all understand that the Supervision Department is a double-edged sword used by Chu Tian to supervise officials. If they are accidentally targeted by the Supervision Department, they will all be at risk.

Even Xia Liang, who has been following Chu Tian for more than three years, is unwilling to be targeted by the Supervision Department. However, the Department of Supervision did not dare to trouble her, otherwise she went to Chutian to appeal successfully and the entire 150 people of the Department of Supervision would be removed.

Chu Tian would not allow the Supervision Department to bite people everywhere.

"Fang Xuanling is responsible for assessing the government officials in each county, with a small test a year and a big test in three years. The criteria for the assessment depends on each county and serves as the basis for future promotions, rewards, and even the above-mentioned request to be sealed."

Chutian considers that different counties have different levels of development and natural resources are also very different, so the assessment of each county order cannot be generalized.

It is up to Fang Xuanling to formulate the assessment plan.

"The source of candidate officials is the imperial examination system. In June of this year, the second imperial examination was conducted for four years, and it was also divided into two forms: literary examination and martial examination."

Chutian intends to extend the imperial examination system from Langya country to Xuzhou as a mechanism for selecting talents in the future, completely replacing Ju Xiaolian.

Ju Xiaolian’s talent selection system has given aristocratic families too many resources. They often recommend aristocratic disciples and monopolize upper-level resources.

Chu Tian estimated that his use of the imperial examination system instead of Ju Xiaolian would arouse fierce opposition from the family because it would harm their interests.

Sure enough, many officials from Xuzhou aristocratic families whispered in private, and they were quite critical of Chu Tian's approach.

"Please don't whisper. Langya country has already held an imperial examination, selecting hundreds of good talents, so Langya country is so strong. It shows that the imperial examination system is conducive to the discovery of good talents."

Chutian did find many gold- and silver-level heroes in the first imperial examination. The selection method of the imperial examination system reduced the cost of finding talents for Chutian, and at the same time broke the monopoly of the inherent family to a certain extent.

"Don’t think that the imperial examination system will have too much influence on every family. If every family cultivates disciples from the family’s resources and family style, the success rate of younger generations is very high, not comparable to ordinary people. If it is mediocre who can't even stand out in the imperial examination, then Even if it is filial piety, it will only harm the common people. I think you all understand this truth."

Chu Tian's principle is very simple. Since he is a disciple of the noble family, he has the ability to pass the imperial examination system.

The Xuzhou aristocratic families present could not admit that their descendants might not be as good as the descendants of common people, and they had to acquiesce in the imperial examination system replacing Ju Xiaolian in Xuzhou. The success rate of disciples of the aristocratic family is much higher than that of ordinary civilians. From this point of view, the aristocratic family still has the advantage.

Chutian couldn't do better, and it was the best solution to select good talents through the imperial examination system.

The system of supervision, evaluation, and selection of officials has been finalized, which basically solved the problem of local officials.

Second, there is punishment. Each county has a county office responsible for handling disputes, as well as dungeons and head-catchers.

"When determining each case, file files should be prepared so that the case can be reversed in the future."

"For cases that cannot be judged by each county, or perhaps controversial, go to the prefectural government office. Anything that the prefectural government cannot determine will be handed over to Li Li and Wang Lang. Li Li and Wang Lang determine the new law and pass through me Promulgated after approval."

Chutian let Li Li and Wang Lang be responsible for the punishment, led by Li Li. Li Li also serves as Langya's chief, so Wang Lang decides cases that are difficult to judge. Wang Lang's characteristic "prison governance" can just play its role.

"If even Li Li and Wang Lang can't decide a case, then submit it to me and I will judge it myself."

Chutian announced the contents of the new ruling system one by one, from the management of officials to punishment, establishing the most basic framework.

More specific content, such as how to evaluate the performance of officials and the regulations applicable to civil litigation, depends on how Fang Xuanling, Li Li, and Wang Lang have determined.

Anyway, Chu Tian was the last person to handle it, and he needed his consent for everything to take effect.

"Then it's about Nongsang."

Chu Tian mentioned the land issue that all aristocratic families were most concerned about.

Most aristocratic families are big landlords and have a lot of land. If Chu Tian declares that the whole world is not a king’s land and turns their private land into the lord’s mansion, they will definitely rise up, or contact another state animal husbandry to replace Chu. day.

In order to temporarily appease the aristocratic families in Xuzhou, Chu Tian, ​​who did not intend to do anything to the aristocratic family, said: "The private land of each family shall be reserved. The farmland that the lord mansion arranges for the refugees to reclaim, the former farmland, is owned by the lord mansion. Private. The field is temporarily prohibited from trading."

Chu Tian planned to win over the Xuzhou family first, and then try to turn the farmland into Wang Tian, ​​and all land ownership will belong to the lord's mansion. As for the farmland newly reclaimed by the migrants organized by the lord’s mansion, and the farmland that was not cultivated due to the war, it is directly owned by the lord’s mansion.

“Each county’s agricultural affairs should be adapted to local conditions, rotating cultivation, planting a variety of crops, and striving to increase grain yield. Li Li and Xia have already experimented with a one-year rotation arrangement for new crops in Langya, and the habits of each new crop have been improved. Every county can learn from the experience of Langya Kingdom, especially the experience of Kaiyang County, Langya Kingdom."

The best county under the Chutian rule was Kaiyang County. It tried to plant new crops such as sweet potatoes, corn, peanuts, and potatoes. With detailed information, we can know their growth habits and then arrange agricultural production.

Because of the influx of new crops in the Americas, Langya's grain production has increased, which can feed more people, and there will be no worries about grain in future battles.

Different from the real world, there are various bonuses in "Lord" that can increase food production.

For example, a special building observatory can increase food production by 5%.

After decades of development, a city may be able to feed 2 times to 10 times more population.

Therefore, farming is very necessary.

After decades of development, a state is more powerful than a state with frequent wars and empty treasury.

"The resettlement of the refugees and the reclamation of new farmland will be left to Langya Xiang, Donghai Xiang, and Xia Pixiang. Be sure to complete the reclamation of new farmland and resettlement of the refugees before planting in October this year. Sowing in October and harvesting next year Lots of snacks."

Chu Tian added again and asked Mi Zhu: "Are the household registration statistics in Xuzhou now exhaustive?"

Mi Zhu shook his head: "The wars continue, the population of counties and counties has dropped sharply, and there are still no statistics."

Chu Tian was silent.

Xuzhou was very confused in the first three or four years.

The lords first had a village war, then a town-level war, then a county-level war, and finally a merger between counties and states.

According to Mi Zhu, because all villages and towns are fighting and the population changes every day, it is impossible for Xuzhou officials to conduct household registration statistics on the largest Xuzhou.

A village established by a lord may still exist today, but will be destroyed tomorrow. The officials of Xuzhou were powerless and meaningless.

"Counties and counties conduct strict statistics on household registration. Now Xuzhou is no longer the chaotic Xuzhou before. It is necessary to thoroughly check the number of people in Xuzhou to determine the Tian Fu corvee."

"For the villages living in seclusion among the mountains and forests, they are advised to return to the government, or move them to the plains. The plains of Xuzhou still have huge agricultural potential. They do not need to go to the mountains and forests to avoid war."

"The Qing eradicated the bandits in the counties and counties of Xuzhou, forcing them to surrender and enriching the population of the counties and counties."

The experience of governing Langya country has gradually matured Chutian. He draws inferences from one another, and most of the same reasoning applies to other counties in Xuzhou.

"Then repair roads and bustling markets to promote trade."

Chutian has detailed arrangements for agriculture, population, household registration, roads, and economy.

Road, that is, the road that connects the important towns in Xuzhou.

In particular, the official road between Langya City-Xiacheng-Tancheng-Xiapi City should be widened, so that it is convenient for Chutian to deploy troops calmly, and it is also convenient for caravans to transport goods and food.

Economic development depends on the cash crops and specialty products of each county.

The counties on the plains develop agriculture, the counties on the seaside develop trade, and the counties with mineral veins develop mining...

"Establish a unified bank in Xuzhou, named "Tongbao Bank", set up a head office in Xiacheng and set up branches in each county to absorb deposits. The head office must set aside 30% of the reserve."

To get rich, first build roads and financing is also essential.

Chutian has already obtained a lot of benefits from the bank. Many financial crises have been through borrowings from the bank. It can be said that without the bank established by Xia Liang, Chu Tian went bankrupt many times.

Being a lord is not as simple as you might think.

Chutian, who had benefited, simply promoted Langya's banks to the entire Xuzhou and used the banks to make money. When necessary, Chu Tian can ask for money from the bank.

If one person deposits 100 copper coins in the bank, ten million people is one million taels of silver. Set aside 30% of the reserve fund, and 700,000 taels of silver can be used temporarily when starting a war.

This is the power of finance.

However, the credibility of the bank will take a long time to operate before the people will trust it.

"Tongbao Bank's account books are reported to me every three months, and a copy is recorded for Miss Xia for verification."

Chu Tian didn't dare to ensure that he would not be fooled by the subordinates who managed the bank. After all, the account books were prone to fraud, so he could only entrust Xia Liang to review. She is one of those people who don't want an accident in Xuzhou.

"There is also foreign trade..."

The foreign trade referred to by Chutian is not entirely trade with other civilizations. The term “outside” here refers to areas outside of Xuzhou.

"At present, there are two important ports, Qu County (Lianyungang) and Xihai County (Rizhao), which can encourage people to build a large number of sea-going ships and engage in trade and fishery. Those who coordinate foreign trade matters are Miss Xia and Mi Zhu. If there is a disagreement , Subject to Miss Xia’s judgment."

Chu Tian once again placed Xia Liang on Mi Zhu.

The reason is not complicated. Xia Liang knows which civilizations exist outside the sea, and can contact the forces and lords of other civilizations and reach trade agreements with them. Mi Zhu couldn't do this.

Mi Zhu's role is to integrate the resources of Quxian County and even the East China Sea, and establish coastal and even ocean-going fleets.

"In one year, one hundred sea-going ships will be built. In three years, there will be five hundred to one thousand sea-going ships, including at least 50 high-rise ships and various medium-sized warships."

Chutian considered the goal.

"The target of foreign trade is Liaodong, Gaoli, Yangzhou, and Dongying. Miss Xia tries to negotiate with the trade partner."

"Master State Animal Husbandry, the navigation time at sea is longer than you think. We have to find ways to shorten the time required for the navigation. Otherwise, shipping will not only be unprofitable, but will cause heavy losses."

Xia Liang reminded Chutian one thing.

In fact, when Chutian knew about the existence of the world trade node, Chutian had already learned something terrible from Xia Liang. After the area of ​​"Lord" was expanded, the area of ​​the Pacific Ocean and the Yellow Sea was quite large, regardless of the three-dimensional space. The linear distance has been extended more than four times.

In other words, the sailing time is at least four times longer than reality.

How can the long shipping time be shortened?

Chu Tian couldn't imagine that it would take a year to travel from Xuzhou to Liaodong by sea.

"Lord" is a game after all, there should be a way to shorten the long voyage.

There is a teleportation array on the land that can solve the long-distance journey, and there should be it on the sea, after all, the sea is bigger than the mainland.

Chu Tian couldn't send someone to reach Europe in four years~www.wuxiaspot.com~ so the logistics could not be supplied...

"Ding! The second national war event-'The First Collision of Civilizations'" will start in August of the fourth year of the Lord's calendar. Please check the content of the event preview. This national war covers all civilizations, only the lord of each civilization Can participate."

"Ding! Considering that the ocean area is too large, after the second national war, the preliminary era of great voyages will begin, which will promote exchanges and collisions among civilizations in the main world. Each port will be able to build ships and transport arrays. Teleport ships to the'neutral seas' and reach the target port faster. Making full use of the teleportation array can effectively shorten the navigation time, trade with other civilizations, or attack hostile civilizations."

Chu Tian suddenly received the notification from the system, and his entire body was dumbfounded.

The second national war began in the four years of the lord’s calendar. It was not a historical battle, but a competition that covered all civilizations? The port’s teleportation array will also be opened, and the era of great navigation has begun to take shape!

"Western civilization, North African civilization, Indian civilization, and Arab empire are all likely to be encountered this time..."

Chu Tian thought for a while, and his Tian Khan characteristics were finally useful.
