Chapter 1778 New Year!
In April, everything revives, grass grows and birds fly, the climate begins to truly warm up, and busy farming begins.
The Qin Dynasty entered a new year and the third year of Kaiming.
After two years, the Xin Dynasty's official system, supervision system, etc. have been further improved and have been on track.
Especially at the end of the second year of Kaiming, Wang Kang carried out a purge, making the administration even more clear.
In the first two years of the founding of the New Dynasty, Wang Kang had actually done only one thing, that is, to implement the Qin law.
Some social chaos, including land annexation, aristocratic privileges, taxation systems, etc., have undergone fundamental changes.
These have also been added to the Qin law and become basic laws to protect the interests of the people of the lowest-level cities.
Of course, Wang Kang also understood that policy formulation is easy, but the ultimate goal is to continue to be implemented!
The key lies in the place.
This requires a mature system.
To this end, Wang Kang spent his efforts to re-dividing administrative jurisdictions based on the former vassal states of Great Chu and formulated a system of clear hierarchies.
In order to avoid officials working in one place for a long time, it is easy to breed hegemony and easily lead to dominance, relevant measures have been formulated.
For example, it is stipulated that officials who have reached a certain level are not allowed to work in their registered residence and work in one place, and have a certain period of time to rotate when they expire.
Strengthen the official assessment system and strengthen the supervision system.
The central government has lost control over local governments, which is a major reason for inconvenient transportation and inconvenient contact, which is a limitation of the times.
With the territory of the Qin Dynasty, it took several months or even a year to travel to Kyoto in remote areas, which caused great trouble to the timeliness and management of the issuance of government orders.
Large-scale road construction is unrealistic and takes time.
Therefore, Wang Kang invested a lot in the past two years to establish a station as a contact point.
Contact and relay transmission through the station can save a lot of time, which can strengthen the control of the local area.
It costs a lot to do this, especially in the early days of the founding of the New Dynasty, which was opposed by many people at that time. Now it has gradually improved and has shown results.
As the new year begins, Wang Kang also sets this year as the construction year!
Road construction, car manufacturing, water conservancy projects, etc. will be launched one after another.
Of course, under this premise, the most important thing is to build people's livelihood. Simply put, it is to solve the people's food problem!
During the Chu State in the previous dynasty, ordinary people had no land at all, and most of the arable land was controlled by the aristocratic class.
These people occupied fertile land, which lasted for a long time and did not have the spirit of clearing the land, because they felt that there was no need at all and did not want to invest so much in doing this.
As for ordinary people, they have no authority at all.
After statistics, there is indeed a lot of land being abandoned and not reclaimed.
It is not a false statement that the former Da Chu claimed to be the country with the largest land area on the mainland.
Therefore, the first priority of the new year is to reclaim wasteland and allow people to have land to cultivate, so that they can produce more grain, thereby solving the problem of eating.
Since it is construction, it cannot be separated from others.
Is there a large population?
In fact, compared with the land area, the population is not large.
The previous dynasty, Great Chu, experienced many years of war, and suffered heavy casualties. The population decreased dramatically due to years of chaos.
So there is a shortage of people!
Otherwise, Wang Kang would not have sent out those who should have been sentenced to death and reclaimed wasteland...
To this end, Wang Kang also formulated policies to encourage childbirth...
In the new year, Wang Kang has formulated a full-year plan, involving all aspects.
Commerce develops in parallel with agriculture.
Zhao, Yan, Qi, and even further north grasslands, Yue formed a major alliance.
Reduce tariff exemptions, strengthen communication, and communicate... to create the most suitable environment for business development.
In addition, Wang Kang is also preparing to build a unified economic system.
All the currencies that are common in mainland China are metal currencies, but metal currencies have great disadvantages and are inconvenient to circulation. This is even more true for bulk transactions. In line with development, it is imperative to promote paper money!
Wang Kang has sufficient experience in this regard. The Fuyang Chamber of Commerce once did such a thing. Now the Zhao State still has paper money circulation.
Wang Kang had done a large-scale work in Qi before, but after he broke up with Qi, he was all cleaned up.
Now he wants to do this again and unify the currency!
It is not only within the scope of Chu, but also within the State of Zhao, Yan, Qi and others, forming a unified monetary system!
In fact, he had already talked with Jiang Chengli and Gao Yin about this matter and reached a consensus.
Paper money will not be printed and distributed at will, but will be linked to gold. In other words, depositing all the gold from these countries in Qin and using gold as a guaranteed mortgage can ensure the value of the paper money without causing inflation...
Wang Kang wanted to copy the birth of the US dollar in his previous life.
The new dynasty was founded and the country was not very stable, and now it can be started. This is of great significance to the reunification of the country!
To this end, Wang Kang specially established the Daqin Trading Company to be responsible for this matter.
The Daqin Commercial Bank not only has the function of issuing paper money, but will also include savings, credit, monetary policy, economic regulation and other functions...
In this way, as long as the economic issues are involved, they will be managed by the Daqin Commercial Bank, which can separate this part from the imperial court's Ministry of Revenue, making the behavior more professional!
As Wang Kang's former industry, Fuyang Bank will be merged into Daqin Trading Bank, and Tang Qingyi, the manager in charge of all the business of the Fuyang family, also became the first president of Daqin Trading Bank!
This is a brand new position, but it also has considerable power and will assume the construction of the entire Daqin economic system!
Only economic stability can ensure social stability.
The relevant supervisors of Daqin Trading Company are all from the Fuyang Chamber of Commerce. They have professional knowledge and can do this better...
This move also caused great shock in the court.
Various new policies emerge one after another, which also gave them a deeper understanding of His Majesty.
Of course, that kind of admiration arises naturally!
If you think about it carefully, all of these actions and measures are extremely advanced and have a huge effect on national development.
For example, a huge investment in the establishment of station system can help the people bring letters and deliver messages.
Based on these stations, starting road construction will form a national road system and will greatly improve life.
Politics, economy, people's livelihood, education, construction, etc.
Each item is involved!
And these measures and decrees were all proposed by His Majesty, which is really incredible!
Everyone feels that there are new changes every day, changing with each passing day!
They are proud of being in this country, and they all regard themselves as Qin people, and have no resistance anymore...
The new year has begun, and this feeling is even more obvious. Everyone is full of energy. As for the Taishang Sect, it seems that they are forgotten.
Everything is moving in a good direction, but at this moment, something big happened...
Chapter completed!
