Chapter 261: Spring of the Fourth Year of the Min Dynasty

Emperor Wanchang died.

After returning to the capital from the top of Mount Tai, Emperor Wanchang dressed in his crown and robes before the abdication ceremony. Then, accompanied by his ministers, he went to the Temple of Heaven to read the abdication edict.

Within a day.

The abdication edicts were sent one after another to Zhang Taiyue's residence in the capital.

After Zhang Taiyue declined the throne three times, he finally accepted the abdication edict on the fourth time.

After accepting the abdication edict, the Min Dynasty formally inherited the orthodox status of the Yu Dynasty, thus becoming the nominal and actual imperial court of Zhongzhou.

With this title in place, officials from all regions must obey the orders of the Minchao.

Otherwise it is disobedience and rebellion.

of course.

The interpretation of the name is based on the standpoint.

When Emperor Wanchang handed over power to the Min Dynasty, ambitious people in various places began to raise forces under the banner of clearing the emperor's side, eliminating treacherous officials, and supporting Dayu.

This is what he said in name, but in reality he just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to establish his own kingdom.

The forces that raise these banners are not even the legitimate successors of the original forces, but those who took advantage of the chaos to seize the power of their former owners after the Huang Tian disaster.

But the clamor of these forces is nothing but noise.

The Min Dynasty had established a fairly stable dynasty throughout the north.

Coal, steel, black oil, and all kinds of military and civilian resources produced from the resource-rich land of Jianzhou are continuously transported to the capital.

Then the army of the Min Dynasty continued to take out the grain stored by landlords from all over the country and distribute it to the people.

The same goes for land.

Under such circumstances, the people were all with the Minchao army wherever it went.

Those forces that claimed to "clean up the imperial court" were like eggs hitting stones, and they shattered with a bang.

In just eight months, the Min Dynasty army recovered all the territory of Zhongzhou.

The territory actually controlled by the Min Dynasty included the original territory of Dayu, Jianzhou, and part of the Arctic ice field north of Jianzhou.

For eight months, the Minchao army was more engaged in disaster relief than in fighting.

Fortunately, the disaster of Huang Tian has long passed.

After regaining the territory, the Min Dynasty army and local officials promptly resumed production and construction.

In eight months, with the help of the beast tamers who were good at production in the Min Dynasty and the cultivators who helped build canals and clear rivers... in eight months, the Min Dynasty harvested a huge amount of food.

All these grains were purchased by the imperial court of the Min Dynasty to ensure the stability of grain prices.

To this end, the Min Dynasty specially established a Food Bureau to be responsible for the purchase and storage of grain from various places.

As for transportation and coordination, it is the responsibility of other government agencies in the Min Dynasty.

As food is of vital importance to people's livelihood, it has a high status in the Min Dynasty, and officials at all levels are not allowed to engage in any acts of corruption.

Once discovered, severe punishment will be imposed.

As for businessmen and the like, if they are just doing normal trade, buying low and selling high, it is allowed within a certain range.

However, if anyone takes the opportunity to hoard rare goods and intends to make huge profits from grain, he will definitely be investigated and punished.

It seems like an attempt to suppress businessmen.

But in fact, the Min Dynasty treated merchants very well.

Not only did it improve the status of merchants, but it also abolished many laws and regulations that previously targeted merchants.

He also asked the Economic Supervision Office of the Ministry of State Affairs of the Republic of China to personally negotiate and cooperate with shops and businesses in various places.

The Minchao gives them technology, they pay patent fees to the Minchao, and everyone makes money together.

Then, the Economic Supervision Office will also provide guidance and guide local businesses to develop in the areas of industrial innovation, technological innovation, and cultivation innovation.

As for those industries related to basic people's livelihood, they are under the sole control of the people's court.

Under this strategy, many people who knew the times took the initiative to cooperate with the Min court.

As for those who are ignorant of the times...

For example, the Shanxi merchants in Jinzhou Province who were flirting with the monsters in the north.

When Lu Jing was still the governor of Japan, he traveled to Jinzhou and got acquainted with Tao Sanniang and Pei Yu from the Sword Immortal Society. He also set up a backup plan in Jinzhou.

Over the years, the Sword Immortal Association has grown stronger with Lu Jing's support.

It has become one of the most powerful forces in the northwest region of Zhongzhou.

As for the Shanxi merchants in the northwest who were flirting with the northern barbarians, Lu Jing already had their names listed.

It is worth mentioning that because those businesses turned their backs on Dayu, they were not greatly affected by the Yellow Sky Disaster.

So during these months, the businesses among Shanxi merchants expanded rapidly.

With so much wealth and power, many local forces followed their lead. To the extent that many rebellious forces in the northwest were supported by the Shanxi merchants.

After basically taking care of all the places in Zhongzhou, Lu Jing had time to deal with those Shanxi merchants.

So Lu Jing handed the list to Zhang Taiyue and Zhang Jiuyuan.

Zhang Taiyue and Zhang Jiuyuan, who got the list, immediately left the capital and rushed to Jinzhou Province.

It took three months to kill all the merchants in Jinzhou who had colluded with the enemy and committed treason.

Those merchants from Jinzhou went too far.

If they are just black-hearted, perhaps we still need to enforce the law.

But Lu Jing already has a lot of evidence of their secret dealings with the demons, so - all he needs to deal with them is the list.

In the process of razing those businesses, Daoxianhui made great efforts.

Logically speaking, Lu Jing has already taken over the Central Plains artifact with a group of people, and it is time for the Sword Immortal Society to move from darkness to light.

But now the forces of various alien races are watching covetously.

Lu Jing still planned to let Daoxianhui continue to stay in the dark.

When the Min Dynasty came to rule Zhongzhou, there were so many things to be done in all aspects.

Not to mention that Lu Jing also has a plan to implement against the alien races.

and so.

In the second and third years of the Min Dynasty, Lu Jing was busy like a top.

It was not until the fourth year of the Min Dynasty that things in all aspects were back on track, and Lu Jing finally had some free time.

……

On this day, Lu Jing was in his office communicating with the emperors from outer space about how to create a fighting puppet that could connect to the soul.

In fact, it is not difficult to connect to the soul, and it is not difficult to make a puppet.

But Lu Jing’s request was too strange.

It needs to have a built-in cousin-like panel that can collect data on the target in real time and create a long red strip to hang above the heads of the alien races.

What are these weird things?

not only!

It is not enough for fighting puppets to just look like humans, they also need to be diverse.

Different races, even different ethnicities...

Does this mean that humans can become monsters, and let monsters experience what it's like to be human?
This is this...

This is too ridiculous.

But Lu Jing, as the main person in charge of this project, made it clear that this was something very important.

Because human creativity is unlimited.

Especially when people enter the game.

Just as Lu Jing was arguing with the emperors from outer space, a voice came from outside the office: "Brother Mingyuan! Brother Mingyuan! Don't stay in this small place. The sun is shining brightly today, and the spring breeze is warm. Let's go out for a walk and relax."

Mingyuan is the courtesy name given to Lu Jing by Zhang Taiyue and others.

Ever since Lu Jing abolished the imperial system, the custom of emperors not having courtesy names has become obsolete.

Because the emperor hid his courtesy name, it was more to make it easier for people all over the world to read and write.

Otherwise it would be too troublesome to avoid it.

Then Zhang Taiyue and others discovered it!

It turns out that Lu Jing has never had a courtesy name.

This made Zhang Taiyue, Cheng Fengxiao and other scholars excited, and they all wanted to give Lu Jing a courtesy name.

Finally, after a heated argument, they gave Lu Jing an extremely ordinary courtesy name - Mingyuan.

Scenery means light.

The light is so bright that it illuminates the world!

Therefore it is bright and far-reaching.

The meaning is very good.

But it is indeed mediocre.

But Lu Jing himself didn't care about it and accepted it.

Lu Jing cut off the connection and asked, "Outing? It seems that your work is not saturated enough."
