After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 52: Livelihood Medal!

“Care and recognition?!”

After hearing Chen Huaixin's plan.

Ji Qingluo's face was full of confusion.

Of course she knows.

Chen Huaixin wanted to change the atmosphere of Yu State and maintain a balance between civil and military styles. Naturally, he needed other methods besides the martial arts examination.

"But."

"That idea."

"What does that mean?!"

Ji Qingluo was puzzled.

Her eyes turned to Duke Weiguo.

The Duke of Wei also knew the deep meaning of His Majesty's look. He thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps the meaning of caring is like what I did, providing compensation to the wounded and disabled soldiers, but the meaning of recognition... I don't understand it either."

"No! Caring should not only include providing pensions! Because Yuguo has already done so! And unlike in my Chengguo, no one dares to monopolize the pensions for the wounded or dead soldiers!" Ji Changling's voice rang out.

Just her words.

But it made many people's faces turn black.

But Ji Changling didn't bother to care what they thought. He reminded his aunt not to forget that there were still many giant termites in the army.

She continued, "Since it has already happened, Chen Huaixin cannot repeat it, and it would not be appropriate to increase the compensation."

"Then what do you think it should be like?" Ji Changning couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know!" Ji Changling said confidently.

She simply felt that what the Duke of Weiguo said was wrong, so she spoke out to veto it. As for what exactly happened, how could she, an ordinary princess, guess what Chen Huaixin was thinking!
"Just keep watching!"

【Same month。】

【Spring ploughing begins. 】

【Because it took a full three years to lay the groundwork. 】

[Since last year, some people in Yu Country have tried to use new farming tools and planted and cultivated their own fields according to the new farming methods of the experimental fields in various states.]

[By the time of autumn harvest, the fields that adopted the new method generally produced much more grain than the fields that adopted the old method! ]

[This shocked all the people who knew about this! ]

[They never imagined that the experience passed down from generation to generation would be inferior to the government's methods! ]

[When farming started this year, without the court's persuasion, most people took the initiative to replace their farming tools and adopt new farming methods in the hope that their own harvests would also increase! ]

【“From last year to this year.”】

[“The busiest people in every place are not the officials, but the local carpenters!”]

[“Because my Ministry of Industry is unable to provide a large number of new tools, the people can only find carpenters to make them.”]

[When the Minister of Industry reported this matter, his face was full of smiles.]

[It’s not just because the farming method they researched has really improved the food production and won them recognition from the people of Yu Country, but also because there are finally people who can appreciate the hard work of their Ministry of Industry! ]

Chen Huaixin also had a smile on his face and said, "Thank you for your hard work in the Ministry of Industry over the years. How is the pig farming going now?"

[“It’s already working!”]

[The Minister of Industry continued to answer: "After comparison, we have found a better time and method for castration. The pork after castration does not have any smell. It is even delicious after being cooked. We have also expanded the scale of breeding this year."]

[“Starting next year, the price of pork in my country should be able to drop, so that the people can eat meat more often!”]

【Speaking of this.】

[The Minister of Industry's face was full of excitement and anticipation.]

[He was sure that in the history books of the future, when it was recorded that people could eat meat in this prosperous era, his name would definitely be included!]

[“I just wonder how future generations will address me? Minister of Road Construction? Minister of Farming? Minister of Pig Raising?”]

[“None of them sound very good…”]

[The Minister of Industry suddenly became entangled. ]

【Chen Huaixin didn't know what the Minister of Industry was thinking at the moment, but when he learned that the scale of pig farming had begun to expand, the smile on his face became even brighter.】【"Pay attention to preventing poultry diseases."】

[“Don’t forget about raising chickens, ducks, and geese either.”]

[“There are also methods to fertilize the fields and fertilizers. This is also the key to farming and grain production!”]

【Chen Huaixin said as a reminder.】

[The Minister of Industry nodded.]

[“I will definitely keep this in mind!”]

Looking at the Minister of Works of Yu State in the Mirror of Heaven.

Duan Zhengqing, the Minister of Works of Chengguo, had envy written all over his face.

even though.

The Minister of Works of Yu State had a lot of things to do and was almost always busy.

but.

When you see the results being completed one by one.

When he knew that his name would definitely appear in the history of the future.

Duan Zhengqing even felt a little jealous: "He has always followed Chen Huaixin's orders and never mentioned any of his own ideas! This so-called fame in history is not his own merit at all! He was just brought into history by Chen Huaixin!"

he thinks.

If the position of Minister of Works of Yu Kingdom is handed over to him, he will definitely be able to do a better job!
It’s just a pity that he died in the war when Yu Kingdom was established, otherwise the position would definitely be his, and he should be the one who left his name in history!
"It's really... I'm so angry!"

【April, the sixth year of Jingping.】

[Prisoners of war from the grassland tribes were sent to Chang'an City one after another.]

[This caused cheers from the people along the way, and also made many people yearn for the army. ]

【Chen Huaixin was not in a hurry to deal with them.】

【Instead, he discussed with the prime minister about increasing the care and recognition of the soldiers. 】

【"now."】

[“Soldiers of our Yu country who retire due to injury or other reasons will receive a considerable amount of compensation!”]

[“And if they die fighting for our country, not only will they be able to enter the Jingling Palace, but their families will also receive more compensation!”]

[“Moreover, these pensions will be monitored by me personally. They will definitely not be embezzled by some soldiers or officials as happened before!”]

[“Your Majesty wants to increase the care and recognition of the soldiers. I naturally support this. However, if you want to increase the pension money or the daily military pay, I’m afraid the national treasury will not be able to support it.”]

[After hearing Chen Huaixin's idea, the prime minister took the initiative to hint.]

[The pensions and daily military pay that Yuguo gives to the soldiers now far exceed what they received before! ]

[And if His Majesty were to increase these two sums of money in order to give the soldiers more care and recognition, the national treasury would probably collapse! ]

[After hearing his words, Chen Huaixin naturally understood the hidden meaning. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have no intention of further increasing military pay and pensions."]

【"call!"】

[The prime minister heaved a sigh of relief.]

【But this also made him feel a little puzzled. 】

[Military pay and pensions will not be increased.]

[How can we improve the care and recognition for the soldiers? ! ]

【Chen Huaixin naturally saw through the confusion on the prime minister's face, and he continued speaking.】

【“Caring and recognition.”】

[“It is not necessary to increase military pay and pensions.”]

[“For example, we can provide sick soldiers with a job in the local area!”]

[“For example, personally meet with meritorious soldiers and present them with a medal!”]
