Chapter 394 Chapter 9295
Ying Yi's character is not good at romance, and as the master of a huge empire, romance is basically insulated from him.
He just treated the women in the inner palace as his own family members.
Therefore, the emperor's life is ordinary and dull, and the taste is not bad. It's enough for him to enjoy it.
No need to go into too much detail, it’s already tomorrow.
Great court meeting.
"I have sent the battle report of the Military Aircraft Office to Yi Ge yesterday, and I think all the ministers are aware of it." Ying Yi said from a high position: "The military campaign against Yingzhou has been finalized. In this battle, the Army Commander, the Commander-in-Chief of the Liaodong Theater Zhu Bingkun and the Navy Commander Governor Zheng Wu presided over it, and mobilized 96,000 people in two war zones, including land and sea, and more than 30,000 auxiliary troops, for a total of 130,000 troops. Since the declaration of war on the first day of April, the entire territory of Yingzhou has been occupied, and countless people have been captured and beheaded. , the time is exactly one and a half months.”
After a pause, Ying Yi said: "The territory of Yingzhou is narrow, with only one state in Daxia. However, the population is prosperous, estimated to be nearly 20 million. Moreover, Yingzhou's rich gold and silver deposits are also urgently needed by the empire. Now Yingzhou is both Now, how to deal with it specifically, all the ministers can tell you freely."
Then Zheng Yunzhi, the prime minister of Yige Tianguan, stood up and came out and said: "Your Majesty has already roughly stated the treatment of Yingzhou. The benefits of Yingzhou lie in its population and its resources. Although the area of Yingzhou is small, , but the population is prosperous, and the development of Daxia is at a time when manpower is urgently needed. Following the old affairs of Chaozhou, the two policies of catching slaves and relocating people can be carried out simultaneously. The Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Works have drafted a specific plan, which will be submitted later. Let’s take a look at your majesty.”
He added: "And Yingzhou has many gold and silver deposits, especially silver. Gold and silver are essential raw materials for gold and yuan alloys, and gold and yuan alloys are the basic materials for the development of the empire..."
Within one day, Yi Ge had come up with a specific resolution plan. In terms of population, following the old events in Chaozhou, the two policies of catching slaves and relocating people were implemented simultaneously. The main target of slave hunting is adult males over the age of fifteen and under forty-five, accounting for 60 to 80% of the total number of males. The secondary target is women, and the age range is limited to fifteen to thirty-five years old, taking 20% of the total number.
All male slaves were sent to slave labor camps, while a small number stayed in Yingzhou and were responsible for infrastructure construction, building smelting plants, shipyards, docks, etc. Most of them were transported to Daxia and distributed to various border areas, following the pace of the imperial army. Wherever the territory was expanded, infrastructure construction was carried out. When the five-year period is up, they will either serve the people locally or move to other places to serve the people.
Female slaves are mostly used for sales - a plan based on the basic national policy of encouraging fertility. The empire needs more people and more children, so selling female slaves to the people at low prices is conducive to the smooth implementation of this basic national policy.
As for Yingzhou's resources, they are concentrated on gold and silver mineral deposits and marine resources. Needless to say, there is no need to talk about gold and silver mineral deposits. Due to the alloy of gold and yuan, gold and silver mineral deposits are already the cornerstone materials of the empire, and they cannot be overemphasized.
As for seafood. Since the founding of the Xia Dynasty, business has been encouraged with rigor. The so-called rigor refers to the rigor of business laws and tax laws, and we must pay close attention to this aspect. On this basis, the empire encouraged all commercial activities.
The seafood industry has gradually developed in the past year or two. As the construction of the six main roads of the imperial transportation system was completed, the seafood industry entered a boom. Due to the convenient road transportation and the prosperity of the people, the seafood produced in the eastern and southern coastal areas has spread over larger and larger areas and the market has become more and more prosperous. When transportation equipment becomes available for civilian use, seafood can also radiate across the country. In this way, the future of this industry is predictable.
Although Yingzhou is small and lacks land resources, seafood is an important feature. The geographical location of Yingzhou determines that the seafood near Yingzhou is plentiful, even more than the imperial coast.
Yingzhou will become a new state in the empire, so the rapid establishment of a local political and legal system is also a top priority. At the court meeting, Ying Yi appointed a new governor of Yingzhou. As for the specific division of sub-regions such as prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou and the specific appointment of officials, it will take a few days to implement.
Establishing a governance system is the first priority. Only when local governance institutions are established can the development and utilization of population and resources proceed smoothly.
Slave catching is not just random hunting, there must be regulations. The establishment and management of mines and the construction and management of infrastructure also require regulations. The charter comes from the government.
Therefore, establishing the government system is the first priority.
The discussion on various matters concerning Yingzhou lasted the whole day. Except for a short break at noon, it was almost sunset in the afternoon.
Before the dynasty was dismissed, Huang Zongxi of the Ministry of Rites gave Ying Yi eye drops as usual.
"Since your Majesty Jingpingyu entered the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Daxia has seen great prosperity. The three dynasties of ruling Han, Tang, and Maiyue are really within sight. The ancient saying goes: Although the country is large, it will perish if it is warlike. Your Majesty has conquered Yingzhou and brought in people. There are tens of millions of people. At this time and at this time, we should consider the words of the saints and govern the country with great virtue."
In a word, Yingzhou has fought and fought. After getting so many benefits, it’s time to settle down, right?
This is Huang Zongxi's opinion.
When Ying Yi heard this, he smiled and said: "Huang Qing's words have been true in all dynasties. However, things have changed with time, but it is not true now."
Huang Zongxi said: "Your Majesty has entered the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and the Great Xia is booming. This is the symbol of a flying dragon in the sky. When a flying dragon flies in the sky, you should think about the dragon and regret it. Don't go too far, because going too far is still not enough, Your Majesty."
Ying Yi laughed loudly and said: "Okay, what Huang Qing said is very good. Flying dragons are in the sky, and they should think about their faults before they do it. This is true for people and countries. But I have a different view."
Huang Zongxi rubbed his neck and said: "Your Majesty established the doctrine based on the Book of Changes. I would like to hear your Majesty's views."
Ying Yi nodded slightly, looked down at the ministers, and said slowly: "I established my doctrine based on the Book of Changes. I have read the Book of Changes over and over again hundreds of times. The ancestors and sages integrated all the principles of the development of things into it. The more I read, the more I understand. Feeling profound and profound. What is 'Yi'? Yi means change. The world, the world, follows one unchanging principle, that is, change. All the ministers are literary men. I believe that no one has not read this, the source of hundreds of schools of thought, civilization. For example, Huang Qing is a well-educated scholar."
"Easy lies in a change, adapting to the changes of heaven and earth, adapting to the changes of the four seasons, adapting to the changes of dynasties, adapting to the changes of life experience. In this case, why does Huang Qing remain unchanged?"
Huang Zongxi said: "How come I don't change?"
Ying Yi smiled and said: "I am not the emperor of the past, and Daxia is not the dynasty of the past. Daxia inherited the fire of Yanhuang, but it is not just an inheritance, it has its own changes. The emperor has always been in the ninth year, and the flying dragon is in the sky. Put it in the previous dynasty It has always been true in all dynasties. But in Daxia, it is not the case."
Ying Yi said, slowly standing up, his stalwart body filled with infinite majesty.
"My ascension to the great treasure is not the ninth five years, but the ninety-two years. It is actually the dragon in the field, not the flying dragon in the sky. The founding of the country in Daxia is not the peak. It is just the beginning. In all dynasties, the emperor ascended to the top, which is the ninth five years. It’s actually limited by the times.”
