Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 157

On June [-]th, a middle-aged scribe appeared in Shendu.

This person's name is Jia Xu, with Wenhe, a monk in the late stage of out-of-body, and a magic weapon called the Seven Poison Poison Fire Fan. He claims to be good at planning, and went to the Chu Palace to recommend himself.

…………

Qingqiu City, Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

It was still spring when the war broke out, and in a blink of an eye it had already entered midsummer. The scorching sun was burning the earth mercilessly, and the air was shaking uncontrollably.

The east courtyard was as quiet as ever, not even the chirping of cicadas could be heard.

In the study room, Qian Yuan was reviewing official documents. From the faint soul fluctuations emanating from his body, it can be seen that Qian Yuan has successfully broken through to the late stage of strong soul without knowing it.

This is too exaggerated.

In less than a year, Qianyuan completed the leap from the middle stage of the strong soul to the late stage of the strong soul.Of course, such a fast speed is also related to the annexation of Yiyi Mansion, which greatly increased the merit and fortune.

The larger the fiefdom, the better the governance, and the faster Qianyuan's practice.

However, compared to a martial arts genius like Wu Ziyue, Qian Yuan's current cultivation base is still a complete waste, and he can't do anything in a fief where masters are like clouds.

Ever since he entered the Qingqiu Mansion, Qian Yuan basically stopped thinking about doing it himself.

It's better not to play tricks on the door.

However, as long as Qianyuan is given another ten years, he will definitely be able to catch up and become a real strong man.It is precisely because of such confidence that Qian Yuan is confident.

From the late stage of the strong soul to the stage of leaving the body, it is a big hurdle in the cultivation of monks. If there are no other opportunities, even if Qianyuan's practice is at a rapid pace, it will not be possible in less than two years.

Practice slowly.

The official letter that Qianyuan is looking at now was submitted by Cao Rui, the household Cao Lang.

Since he was reprimanded for the matter of Donglin New District, Hu Cao has done a lot of practical things in the past six months, which made Qian Yuan look at Cao Rui with admiration.

For example, regarding the relocation of mountain people around Yiyi Mansion, Hu Cao handled it very neatly, and it was completed in less than two months, adding more than [-] people to the fief.

The development of Donglin New District has also been on the right track, and more than [-] chambers of commerce, large and small, have settled in.

Up to now, sixteen factories have started operation, and box after box of soap, truckloads of spirits, glass and other products have been sent from Qingqiu City to all parts of the empire.

Including the neighboring country of shifting sands.

At the beginning of the year, Hu Cao canceled the exclusive rights of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce for border trade, but all chambers of commerce registered in Donglin New District can carry out border trade.

The huge market has further promoted the investment enthusiasm of the chamber of commerce.

Right now, not only the chambers of commerce in Zhaoyao County, but also the chambers of commerce in Xihuang County, Nanyu County, and Kunwu County have been attracted by Donglin New District and have begun to devote themselves to it.

Adjacent to the new district in the east, it has become the most dynamic business district in the southwest.

Taking advantage of the development of the Donglin New District, under the personal supervision of Hu Cao Langzhong Cao Rui, the Commercial Department and the Investment Promotion Department are building a team of shrewd and capable officials.

This is what makes Qian Yuan most gratified.

By next year, the Donglin New District will bring considerable tax revenue to the Yamen.

Cao Rui made this presentation and said that the development of the Donglin New District has reached a large scale. The Prince's Mansion is requested to consider giving the Donglin New District a formal administrative division and establish a branch office at the district level to better achieve more efficient management.

After Qian Yuan saw it, he agreed with it very much.

After the official letter, he instructed Li Cao to come up with a plan for the organization of the Yamen in the East New District within a week, and implement the matter as soon as possible.

After the yamen is established, the yamen can retain a certain percentage of the fiscal revenue of the new district to continue improving the infrastructure construction of the new district.

Then, Qianyuan picked up the official letter reported by Sun Baoshan, the doctor in charge of the work.

As the former magistrate of Yiyi Prefecture, Sun Baoshan's ability is beyond doubt. After he adjusted his mentality, he quickly gained a firm foothold in Gongcao, and he did several major things in a drastic manner.

The first thing, of course, is the road and water conservancy.

The roads and water conservancy in Qingqiu Prefecture are already very complete. The next focus of the Gong Cao is naturally to cooperate with the prefecture's Yamen and the county offices below to promote this matter in the Yiyi Prefecture.

In addition, Sun Baoshan also ambitiously proposed to realize the goal of connecting cement roads to every village within two years, so that agricultural products in remote mountainous areas can be easily transported out of the mountains.

This is really valuable in hilly areas like the Southwest.

It's just that connecting villages is not that simple. If it is really implemented, it may be more difficult than building county roads. Qian Yuan didn't discourage Sun Baoshan's enthusiasm and let him do it.

After a good job, a share of merit and luck is indispensable.

The second one is more interesting.

After seeing the magic of potatoes and Kyushu No. [-] rice, Sun Baoshan suggested that while intensifying land reclamation, use slightly barren fields to grow potatoes to further increase food production.

On the other hand, Sun Baoshan also suggested that the transformation of spiritual fields can be appropriately increased to increase the area of ​​spiritual fields in the fief, and then increase the planting area of ​​spiritual rice and spiritual grass.

After Qianyuan saw it, he couldn't help but be overwhelmed.

It's not that Sun Baoshan's suggestion is so good, but this matter reminds Qian Yuan that if ordinary business is the foundation of the fief, then spiritual agriculture and business are the soul of the fief.

Only by vigorously developing spiritual farmers can we achieve self-sufficiency in spiritual rice and spiritual grass without being restricted by external procurement, which consumes a large amount of spiritual stones every year.

Only by vigorously developing spiritual commerce can we have spiritual stone income financially, instead of relying on begging.

These two are the foundation of the development of the fiefdom.

Of course, this does not mean that ordinary business is not important.

To use an inappropriate analogy, ordinary agriculture and ordinary commerce solve the problems of food, clothing and livelihood of the people, while spiritual agriculture and commerce solve high-level development problems.

The division of labor is different.

Sun Baoshan's proposal can be said to awaken the dreamer with one word.

Qian Yuan not only agreed to this suggestion, but also instructed Hu Cao to set up a spirit farm support fund to encourage the people to expand the scale of spirit beast breeding and spirit grass planting in the back of the official letter.

When necessary, organizations such as the Monster Beast Breeding Promotion Association and the Spirit Grass Planting Association can be established to vigorously develop the fief monster breeding industry and the spirit grass planting industry.

Qian Yuan even suggested that the owners of spirit beast farms should be encouraged to hire half-demons.

According to Qian Yuan's knowledge, some half-demons inherited the talent of the Yao clan who are good at raising monsters, but because of being discriminated against, they have never been used.

If the farm can hire a half-demon, it will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Speaking of half-demons, since Qian Yuan was conferred the title of King of Zhennan, the half-demon alliance has suddenly become enthusiastic. Not only the half-demons in the Yiyi Mansion, but also the half-demons in the entire Zhaoyao County are gathering in the fiefdom.

Green Willow Villa has started training for the second batch of half-demon fighters.

With the appearance of the half-demon in the army, major workshops, and even the Zhennan Palace, the attitude of the human race towards the half-demon is gradually softening, at least in the fiefdom.

Let more half-demons step onto the stage that suits them, and it is logical.

If this is really done, the burden of military expenditures will be reduced a lot, and eventually we will become self-sufficient like the imperial court, and we will no longer have to worry about military expenditures.

During this period of time, Qian Yuan spent the most time on this matter.

Although there is an emergency grant from the imperial court, the fief is still short of spirit stones. To feed such a large army, the daily expenses are enough to overwhelm a small family.

In order to raise enough spirit stones, Qianyuan thought of all the ways he could think of.

The most effective one is to forcefully take back all the spirit stone veins in the fief, and increase the intensity of mine mining, and barely support the development of the fief in a way that is almost like fishing in a dry marsh.

In order to manage these mines, Qianyuan also set up a Geology and Mining Department in Gongcao.

In addition to managing large and small spirit stone veins in the fief, the Geology and Mining Division is also responsible for supervising various mines such as iron mines, copper mines, jade mines, gold mines, silver mines, and coal mines within the fiefdom.

One of the tasks is to promote the steam engine and increase the efficiency of ore mining.

At the same time, the Department of Geology and Mineral Resources is also responsible for mining supervision, to prevent the chaotic mining of jade mines that Qianyuan encountered when he was in Yize County.

Responsible for mining integration and industry regulation.

For this reason, Qianyuan exchanged a lot of books on the earth in this regard, and gave them to the officials of the Geology and Mining Department, allowing them to study hard, adapt measures to local conditions, and formulate mining management regulations for fiefdoms.

Rectifying the mining industry is also preparing for future industrialization.

A horse has no night grass and is not fat.

Recovering the spirit stone veins can only solve an urgent need. Southwest is not a traditional spirit stone rich area. If you want to move a large amount of spirit stones in a short period of time, you have to think of other ways.

In front of the Qianyuan case, there was a piece of information submitted by the guards in black.

According to the intelligence description, if Qian Yuan dared to give it a go, he would be very likely to make a fortune, and he would not have to worry about Lingshi in a short time.

However, this matter is quite risky, and Qian Yuan is still hesitating.

"Difficult!"

Really, Qianyuan has never gotten rid of the curse of Lingshi since he became a fan.

poverty,

Makes people crazy.

"Don't worry about it, let's do it!" Qian Yuan finally made up his mind.
