Chapter 1716 His Royal Highness is very pragmatic

The Ministry of Civil Affairs has only done one thing in the past two years, and that is to implement the examination method!

During this year, the content of the examination was further improved, and all matters in the six departments were included in the examination.

For example, the implementation of farm laws, public security, people's livelihood, population... are all included in the examination.

It's a bit embarrassing to say it.

The examination method also draws lessons from Lu Zhengyuan. Lu Zhengyuan is indeed a talent. He imitated the examination method, but also improved it on the original basis.

Peng Fang also learned from it.

It also added requirements for local officials to increase the number of births.

The most important thing for post-war recovery is to increase the population. How to increase it?

These improvements in people's livelihood and economy will naturally increase.

These are all complementary to each other.

Now that the implementation of the law has gone through a difficult period, officials have adapted. Another important reason is that His Majesty has increased his bargaining chips!

Those who excel in the assessment for three consecutive years can be awarded a title or fief.

In other words, not only military generals have opportunities, but also civilian officials have a way to rise, which makes officials very motivated.

Just last month, the imperial court summoned state pastors from various states to come to Beijing to report and judge their performance. At the same time, the Ministry of Personnel added another item. Those who ranked last for three consecutive years would be directly demoted and punished.

If you do well, you will be rewarded; if you do poorly, you will be punished.

Roll it up!

Roll it up like crazy!

The governors and pastors of each state received strict orders from the imperial court, and then moved to the prefectural level, and then to the county level, with levels of apportionment and involution.

Pressure is power, which turns the entire Daning into a fully wound machine, starting to run crazily!

In addition, there is the implementation of the rural system.

Township officials are included in the official service, and there are ranks, salaries and salaries, and strict selection!

The officials took charge and strictly implemented the rural system...

Peng Fang reported these important matters for nearly half an hour, and everyone listened attentively.

The six parts are not separate, but complement each other and require full cooperation.

This is what the prince does to supervise the country, with less internal friction, more discussion, less care, and more public-spiritedness.

Sure enough, administrative efficiency has improved a lot.

After Peng Fang, the Minister of Official Affairs, reported the report, it was the turn of the Ministry of Works.

Since the establishment of the new dynasty, the status of the Ministry of Industry has greatly improved, which was entirely promoted by Guan Ning. He went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry more often than to the Yamen of the Ministry of Hubu.

The treatment of craftsmen working in official factories is not bad, and many of them have received merit medals. Simply put, their social status has improved a lot, and naturally, more people are willing to be craftsmen.

It is said that the Ministry of Industry has a department where the craftsmen are not engaged in production, but do research all day long. Their families are supported by the court, and their food, drink, and toilet are under the control of the court.

Productivity determines production relations and material basis. Guan Ning firmly believes that if the country wants to develop rapidly, improving productivity is the fastest way, and craftsmen are undoubtedly an important guarantee for the steady advancement of productivity...

Wang Lin, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, began to report.

How much work was done, how many canals were built, and how many roads were paved in one year.

Xue Qing tilted his head slightly. The Ministry of Industry is a gold-eating beast, but with His Majesty's support, the budget should not be less.

"This year, we have started laying cement on the farm."

Wang Lin said: "The cement-hardened ground is flat and hard, suitable for drying and threshing grain on farms. In the next two years, we must ensure that every farm has a drying ground."

Daning is already very mature in the production of cement, which has been used in the construction of rivers and canals and the construction of new reservoirs and dams.

There are two official factories in Shangjing City, and there are also new factories in various cities and places.

Guan Hongzhao nodded, this is a good thing that benefits people's livelihood.

Nowadays, state affairs are all conducted around the farm, focusing on mulberry farming and encouraging crop production.

"There are many things that can be done around the farm, including building water conservancy projects, such as digging wells, digging ponds, building embankments to store water and drain water... You can also combine livestock with farming. Pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks, their excrement

It can be used as fertilizer and compost to increase the yield of the land. The people don’t know it, but the local government can teach it..."

Guan Hongzhao said: "What your Majesty often says is to adapt measures to local conditions. After solving the farming problem, we must find ways to increase the yield per mu..."

"The local government should set up a department specifically in charge of agriculture and forestry to recruit people who are good at it and teach the people how to farm. You can ask Li Fu for advice."

Many big guys remembered it quickly.

His Royal Highness the Prince is a very pragmatic person, which is a blessing to the people.

Build water conservancy projects, increase composting, improve agricultural tools, and actively open up wasteland... These are all policies that benefit the people and are very sound.

"In addition, we need to cultivate high-quality seeds to increase the yield per acre... Isn't the Agricultural Department very fruitful?"

The Agriculture Department is a newly established department under the Ministry of Household Affairs, which specializes in agricultural affairs. One of the tasks is cultivating high-quality seedlings...

"Speaking of which, I have something to ask you."

Guan Hongzhao looked at Wang Lin again.

"Is there a solution to the road paving issue?"

In this regard, he and Guan Ning share the same understanding. One of the difficulties that prevents large-scale production is transportation.

Except for the Guandaoyi Road, Daning is basically muddy and impassable when it rains, and when it snows, it is basically isolated from the world.

There is cement in Daning, and cement paving is excellent, but the repaired road can only be walked by people, not horses. The cement road is too hard, and the horses' hooves will be shattered. I have thought of many ways for this, such as working on the horses' hooves.

A layer of wood is added to the horseshoe for cushioning, which may cause serious wear and tear.

The practical method is to separate the lanes, with horses taking the rammed earth road in the middle and heavy vehicles taking the side lanes. However, this will not change the fact that the horses' hooves are unbearable, unless a layer of buffer is added to the already paved cement road, or there is a better traffic system.

Tools instead of...

"There is a way!"

Wang Lin said: "There are two ways!"
