Iron Dynasty

The charcoal in the charcoal basin made a crackling sound.

Zhang Qiyun gritted her teeth, and finally said, "Rongmin's woman give it a try."

Fei Yueer smiled when she heard the words, she said, "That's right, the precepts of our women's school is that women don’t let their beards and eyebrows, but the emperor asked this palace to write on the walls of the school. We weak girls support us, you just have to try boldly, if it succeeds, it will also win glory for our women's school and the palace."

"Yes, Empress Empress." Zhang Qiyun answered.

When the matter was decided, Zhang Qiyun went back, Xiao Ming said to Fei Yue'er at this time: "The queen has taught a good student."

"The emperor won the prize. It is not so much that the concubine teaches well, it is better to say that the emperor teaches well. After all, the ink in the belly of the concubine belongs to the emperor church." Fei Yue'er is now more and more like a queen, said Time is generous.

Xiao Ming laughed when he heard this. As an emperor, he was most worried about the fire in the backyard. Therefore, a qualified queen was very important to the harem. In this way, he would have the energy to concentrate on state affairs instead of being disturbed by trivial matters.

Now Fei Yue'er can not only get along well with Luluo and Aster, but also can assist him in internal affairs, which is really rare.

"My credit is there, but the most important thing is the cleverness of the queen." Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er teased each other, which is also a way for the husband and wife to advance their feelings.

With a faint smile, Fei Yueer pulled the words back to the subject. She said: "The emperor, the concubines have become more and more important in recent days that women’s schools are more important than women’s schools in the field of war and farming, but the memory of this kind of learning is not as good as that of men. Lost to the man."

"The queen is right. This is why I asked the queen to organize the women's school. Now this women's school has achieved initial results, but it will continue to be run in the future." Xiao Ming said.

Fei Yue'er nodded, "When the concubine's body recovers, the concubine will keep an eye on this women's school."

At this time breakfast was brought, and the nurse took Xiao Yi over.

The two of them teased the little prince for a while while eating, and Xiao Ming couldn't help feeling a little as he looked at the pink and jade baby in the swaddle.

In a blink of an eye, five or six years have passed. From the age of eighteen to more than twenty, the empire he aspires to build has just begun.

Now he can no longer wait any longer, but has to speed up the process. After all, the technology contained in the technology spar is all-encompassing, and he also wants to conquer the stars and the sea in his lifetime.

After Ruixue a year ago, the New Year's atmosphere became strong. After living in Qingzhou for five or six years, he has become accustomed to the excitement.

A few days before the New Year, he asked Fiji and Pang Yukun to issue some festival gifts to officials in accordance with the regulations, but compared to previous years, he was not so generous this year.

After all, now he is not only in charge of the six states, but also the entire northern states and counties. The number of these officials has also risen from more than 3,000 to more than 30,000.

After the new year, Xiao Ming and the officials reinvested in government affairs. The industrial transformation has just started and they cannot be allowed to relax.

In addition, he also issued a decree for comprehensive reform in Dayu at the Great Court meeting in the next year.

At this time of the year, state and county officials would visit Qingzhou to pay him New Year greetings. This is the best time to popularize the reform.

This time his implementation of reforms in the six states does not mean that other places in the country can not participate in the reforms, but the current treasury financial resources are limited, he can only spend his money on the blade, and then he has a plan to focus on supporting the six states .

But in fact, this decree benefits the country of Great Yu, and can be implemented by all states and counties.

"The emperor, many officials are full of praise for the changes in Qingzhou this time, saying that they will imitate the Qingzhou government after returning."

Pang Yukun seemed to be talking about something funny in the imperial study room.

"I'm afraid it's easy to say, but it's hard to do." Xiao Ming frowned, and the Dachao would let the officials understand Qingzhou and Xiao Ming also understand the situation in other prefectures.

Unlike Qingzhou, the situation in both Jinling Prefecture and Chang'an Prefecture has not changed much. The people are still living in the old social model. Dayu is too big. Even in contemporary times, there are some places that modern civilization cannot reach. Place, so he can only choose the coastal port area to focus on development.

After all, these commercial ports are needed for business prosperity.

"The emperor's meaning and the old minister understand that this reform will not happen overnight. Although the minister and the people still have some resistance, if the six states develop, the lower officials believe that officials in other provinces will be much more active."

"Yes, you can't be fat with one bite, so you can't relax." Xiao Ming reminded.

Pang Yukun nodded, and then he said sternly; "The emperor, this time the veteran came to report something to the emperor. A Dutch delegation landed in Dengzhou and wanted to come to Qingzhou to meet the emperor. I wonder if the emperor wants to see him. they."

"Dutch Mission? Blair and the others?" Xiao Ming was a little surprised. Since the Dengzhou port was traded, Dutch businessmen have flocked to Dengzhou. Now there is even a small settlement of Dutch businessmen in Dengzhou.

"This is not the case. The news was that Black sent someone to the cabinet. According to him, these Dutch missions were dispatched by the Dutch parliament. The head of the mission was an earl named Brandon."

Pang Yukun frowned as he spoke. It seemed to him that these Western countries were all weird, and he couldn't adapt to contact with these Westerners.

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words. Now that the cabinet has undertaken all the government affairs of the country, only things that the cabinet cannot decide will come to him.

In this way, he can make the best use of his talents, and he can also spare time to cultivate talents and develop technology.

But this is not complete decentralization, but he has been staring at them.

"You are responsible for the arrangements." Xiao Ming is now determined to strengthen foreign trade relations with the Dutch. Black only represents the Dutch company, but the delegation this time represents the Netherlands.

The British have now extended their tentacles to East Asia, and it is also necessary for him to strengthen relations with the Dutch to dismember this sunless empire at sea.

"Yes, the emperor, the veteran will make arrangements." Pang Yukun responded and turned to leave.

Watching Pang Yukun leave, Xiao Ming lowered his head and looked at the structural drawing of the new type of firearm sent by Song Changping. Song Changping named this type of firearm Fierce Fire.

This firearm abolished the previous flint firing structure and used a flash cap to fire. This firing feature will give his firearm an advantage on the battlefield.

Putting the drawings of guns aside, Xiao Ming looked at the memorial sent by Fiji. The memorial provided Fiji with the current living conditions of the people in each province and the current handicraft industry in each province~www.wuxiaspot.com~Mining, salt industry, etc. To put it simply, the current situation in Dayu Country is very bad.

This time the Northern War fought in rags in the provinces, the people’s lives were difficult, and the handicraft industry and mining industry suffered heavy losses.

The six prefectures with Qingzhou at the core are also very expensive due to the war. In addition to the post-war disaster relief, the six prefectures now have fewer and fewer war preparations.

Putting down the miserable data, Xiao Ming clenched his fists and slammed on the table, confirming his determination.

He knew very well that the Western Industrial Revolution was based on the plundering of the world. Abundant resources promoted the prosperity of Western industries. Prosperous industries allowed people to live abundance and made the country stronger, and the more powerful countries let them seize. More resources.

Therefore, the basis for the prosperity of the West relies on the word "grab". Even in the contemporary era, the West has only replaced colonization by force with economic colonization.

After understanding this matter, Xiao Ming knows that without the support of huge resources, even if he has the technology spar, he will continue to encounter constraints. If this is the case, he naturally cannot let the West monopolize the world's resources.
