All Heavens: Starting from Traveling Through Song Qingshu

Chapter 109 Song Xuan's plan for the future of the empire
After the court, Song Xuan went to Jingren Palace, he was a little angry today.

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

As for men, dogs are dogs, Song Xuan said what a big deal!
"It's not that I'm angry, the main thing is that sometimes I feel helpless. Not every good policy will benefit the country and the people."

Lying on the soft big bed, Song Xuan said helplessly: "Governing the world is much more difficult than conquering the world. There are many things that cannot be covered in every detail. Even the best decision-making is hard to guarantee that there will be no omissions."

Liu Qinglian giggled and said, "If there are any omissions, then plug them in."

"As long as the world is still under your control, brother, you will have plenty of time to change the direction of this country."

Song Xuan gave her a white look.

"Brother, haven't you noticed that since you became the throne, you always feel like you've been in a hurry. Many government orders that obviously take several years or even ten years to complete and promulgate, you can't wait to finish them all within this year."

Liu Qinglian stared at him unblinkingly, and became serious.

"What the hell are you worrying 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 practice.

But at this moment, he suddenly woke up.

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 country in the direction he wants to see.

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

This is true for governing the country, and so is for practice!
Then I'm still in a hurry!

Royal study.

Song Xuan came here again with great perseverance after enjoying the gentle countryside.

Although there is no rush, there will be plenty of time in the future to change this empire into what I want, but even so, at this stage, the approval of the batch still needs to be done, and what needs to be done still needs to be done.

At the moment, he is reviewing the memorial.

Most of the notebooks are handed over by officials from all over the country to show their loyalty. This kind of notebook is very boring, but it still needs to be restored. At least one word "reading" is still required.

Of course, Song Xuan just read some excerpts and it hurts a lot.

such as,

County magistrate of a certain place: How are you, Your Majesty?

Prefect of a certain place: How are you, Your Majesty?

Mayor of a certain place: How are you, Your Majesty?

how am I?I'm so sorry for your mother!
Song Xuan was very annoyed by reading this kind of excerpt, but you can't just throw this kind of excerpt aside, and you have to give a reply of "I am very safe".

After all, the new dynasty has just been established, and a large part of officials from all over the country are still officials from the Yuan Dynasty. At this time, most officials are in a state of anxiety or even panic.

Although these excerpts are speechless, if they do not reply, it is easy to scare them into panic all day long, and thus have no intention of governing.

At least until the imperial examinations are over and the court has enough officials to replace them, Song Xuan still has to deal with what he should deal with.

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

At first, he felt that with the energy of his innate warrior, he was just dealing with government affairs, wouldn't it be easy to catch?

But now it seems that he still overestimated the quality of officials from various places in this era. If there are a bunch of similar sand sculpture notes to be corrected every day, he will not even think about taking time to practice this year.

After thinking for a moment, he took out a piece of rice paper and kept writing on it.

"Food, transport it overseas, or grab it directly from overseas!"

"Land, later merger issues, external expansion!"

At this moment, Song Xuan wrote down whatever came to his mind. As a feudal empire, there were countless problems, but there were not many fundamental problems.

Food and land, as long as the two do not collapse, the feudal empire can last 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 support the family to eat, the possibility of rebellion Not big.

The food problem is not difficult to solve now.

Now the people of the entire Wu Dynasty are in an extremely vigorous process of land reclamation. They only need to recuperate for a few years, and this brand new empire can completely stand on its feet and solve the problem of food for the people.

Two years later, when the sea-going ships are built and the navy is formed, Tang He can command troops to go to sea to search for high-yield crops. At the same time, he can trade with overseas countries and import large quantities of overseas grain, which can further solve the food crisis problem.

In today's Wu Dynasty, there is no shortage of money, and things that can be solved with money are nothing serious.

After pondering for a while, Song Xuan continued to write on the paper.

"Build roads, Population."

If you want to get rich, build roads first. Roads are impassable, not to mention business prosperity, even the issuance of imperial government orders is a problem. If you want to strengthen the central government's control over the local area, road construction is a necessary step.

Then there is the issue of population.

The provinces in the Northland have been in war all year round, and have been ruled by foreign regimes several times for hundreds of years. The population has withered to an extremely dangerous level.

According to preliminary statistics given by Li Shanchang, the total population of the huge empire is now about 3000 million.

In Song Xuan's view, this is completely insufficient. With such a small population, not to mention supporting external expansion in the later stage, it is not enough even to develop domestic demand and cultivate talents.

The population is too small, the domestic demand is insufficient, the basic industry is weak, and there is no possibility of an industrial revolution.

Resuming production as soon as possible to increase the population is also the primary issue after the founding of the Wu Dynasty. Only after this issue is resolved, will it be possible to implement the era of great navigation and external expansion in the later stage!
"Sweet potato potato corn rice improvement."

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

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

During this period, the most important point is the need for a powerful 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 one's own innate warriors, from the Tsing Yi Guards all over the country, from the ministers of the dragon who are full of civil and military officials!
