The Song Dynasty was the Song Dynasty, not the Song Dynasty. This dynasty has begun to change under the change of Zhao Zhen, transforming into a dynasty model that is unprecedented in the world.

More and more old customs and habits are abandoned, and more and more new rules and laws are emerging. This is to protect the lives of the people and also to protect the dynasty rule of the Song Dynasty.

Wuma didn't know what reform was. He just knew that there was a big difference between the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty he once knew. This dynasty was so full of vitality that everyone could find a way to support themselves.

As he talked with Wu Cheng, he knew that the civilians who built Liangcheng Pass would go to Yuxue Pass. These people were not serving the court, but earning money from the court!

Wuma didn't know how these people earned money from the Song Dynasty. From the very beginning, he believed that these people were laborers of the court and were carrying out laborers that were inconvenient for the Han Dynasty for thousands of years. Who knew that it was not at all.

After Wu Cheng's explanation, he became more and more confused. What is an engineering team? These tens of thousands of people are actually hundreds of engineering teams in various parts of the Song Dynasty.

In other words, a group of people who rely on their strength to make a living together need a leader to lead the job for them, work for wealthy families, towns and government offices, and these people exchange labor for free rewards.

Liangcheng Pass is an exception, and it was the first time that the Song Dynasty court handed over the construction of passes to ordinary engineering teams.

How much does it cost to build a pass? Wuma didn't know, but he knew it was costing a lot of money when he looked at it, but this had saved a lot of money.

As long as the Song Dynasty court gave the money to the engineering team for a lot of money and signed a contract, these engineering teams would complete the places they needed to build.

Hundreds of engineering teams and tens of thousands of people are busy at Liangchengguan. They only need to send a few officials to dispatch. They will work quickly. Those who have finished their work can leave first. This is not an encouragement to whom?

If you use money to do things, if you don’t do it well, you will not only be fined or confiscated, but you may even be sued. Just these two things can control people tightly, and no one dares to tamper with such things.

Wuma is not a fool. Wu Cheng explained it a little and understood the pros and cons. In general, it is naturally a matter of greater pros and cons. The Song Dynasty court completed the previous lengthy labor matters in a few simple steps.

The easiest thing is to pay and send the supervisors to the government. There is no need to worry about other matters. No one dares to deceive the court's money. When the construction is built, the supervisors will be responsible for it. The engineering team only needs to sign and seal it. After the Liangcheng Pass is built, there will be a specialist sent by the court to be responsible for the acceptance. Once a problem occurs, not only will the engineering teams be unlucky, but the supervisors will also have to fall into trouble.

Wuma lamented the cleverness of the Song people. The simple method used in such a huge project is a way to kill two birds with one stone.

Originally, labor was something that everyone wanted to avoid, but now it has become a business of making money. How many people come here just to make money with their own strength?

As for the court, it naturally gave money to the court. The contract was written early in black and white, so it was extremely difficult to deal with it. It naturally avoided layer by layer of exploitation.

The payment used is also to pay money, and there is even less deduction. Wuma was a little jealous. What else can't be done with such a king or such a country?

As we went from west to east, we saw and heard more and more on the road. After passing Xingqing Mansion on Ningxia Road, the distance began to increase suddenly. The road was so flat that it turned the team from a hundred miles to a day and night.

Others don’t know the reason, but Wuma knows it. He has seen that the number of post stations has begun to increase after Xingqing Mansion. Not only is the increase in the number of military post stations, but the number of civil post stations is also increasing.

The number of prefectures is increasing and denser. In just three or five hundred miles, you can encounter a huge city, which completely subverts Wuma's understanding of the Central Plains dynasty.

The county town that originally belonged to the prefectures was so large that it had surpassed the size of the county town. Not to mention the huge population, the market in the city was even more prosperous.

This is a bit unreasonable. Everyone knows the prosperity of merchants in the Song Dynasty, but it shouldn't be like this everywhere!

Even if some specific prefectures prosper, ordinary cities are also prospering a bit unreasonable. At first, Wuma thought it was done on purpose by the Song Dynasty, but soon he gave up this stupid idea.

As Wu Cheng said, there is no need for the Song Dynasty to do this at all, and even if it shows strength, it is not necessary.

Wuma sat in the carriage and thought quietly about this puzzle. For him, why the Song Dynasty was so prosperous was more important than anything else. This dynasty had comforted the farmers and did not have to worry about the farmers' rebellion.

The prosperity of merchants is also to appease the workers, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and all the people were taken care of by the Song Dynasty, which is almost impossible to accomplish.

There is no perfect thing in the world, it is said: the great way is fifty, the heavens are forty-nine, and people escape one.

Wuma did not believe that scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were so perfectly appeased by the Song Dynasty. Not only did he not believe it, but he even suspected that there must be a problem that he had not seen.

So he refused Wu Cheng's invitation and refused to meet his tribe members. He quietly thought about the problem in the carriage. He wanted to find the flaws behind the prosperity of the Song Dynasty. Only in this way can he find a glimmer of life for Tubo.

But unfortunately, all problems are linked together, and the same is true for scholars, farmers, industry and commerce in the Song Dynasty. This is not a closed cycle. On the contrary, Zhao Zhen regarded solving the problem of the Song Dynasty as a pioneering problem from the beginning.

This is also where he solves the problem of three redundant and three fees. He is not looking for reasons and solutions internally, but using the most violent means and methods to solve the problem.

Complex problems can be simplified, and simple problems can be solved brutally.

The number of officials is not a problem with the imperial examination system. In fact, there are not many talents selected every year. In Zhao Zhen’s view, it is even necessary to increase efforts.

There are many officials because there are few land and few yamen! That's simple. To increase the land and increase the local yamen in the Song Dynasty.

The yamen in the court also increased, and the three provinces and six ministries all existed. Nine Temples, Taichang, Guangluxun, Weiwei, Taipu, Tingwei, Dahonglu, Zongzheng, Dasiongnong, and Shaofu called Jiusi Daqing.

How many officials have been placed in this way?

The Song Dynasty seized the land of Dali, Xixia, Liao Dynasty, South China Sea countries, as well as Haidongzhou and Jurchen. These places needed construction, the yamen of the Song Dynasty, and the management of officials.

Therefore, there were not too many scholars in the Song Dynasty, but too few. Until now, the imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty were still increasing frequently.

The original competition once every three years has been changed to once every two years. This was a gift to scholars all over the world before, but now it is an urgent task for the Song Dynasty court.
