Chapter 604: Supervisor of Literacy
Wang Tianxun was so angry that he couldn't help it. What the other party said seemed to make some sense.
Turning around, Wang Tianxun felt that Lu Chensheng would not do anything to him.
After all, he can be considered a veteran with long experience and has been working hard for so long.
Lu Chensheng waved his hand, "Okay, I don't blame Wang Tianxun for this."
When Lawrence Lu spoke, Yang Zhiyuan immediately stopped talking and sat back down again.
"Let's wait for the enthronement. There is also the matter of the mausoleum. Let people search for it first. Don't rush to build it."
Lu Chensheng probably knew that Yang Zhiyuan wanted him to build the mausoleum quickly, so he spoke first to stop the other party.
When Yang Zhiyuan heard this, his mouth opened slightly. Seeing that Lu Chensheng had no intention of changing his mind, he could only nod helplessly.
At his age, he is actually the most stubborn and conservative age.
In his opinion, this kind of thing cannot be delayed. Lu Chensheng, who is partial to the situation, has different ideas from his. In addition, he is now weak and unable to persuade Lu Chensheng, so he can only give up.
"Sir, I have something to ask you."
"explain."
Lu Chensheng replied.
"Your Excellency has many wonderful people under his command, and there are countless talented people and craftsmen. When the empire is first established, the first priority should be to build water conservancy, cultivate fertile land, and promote improved farming methods."
Wang Tianxun immediately spoke.
He is naturally responsible for building water conservancy projects. He has been here for several years, and he is quite good at it.
"It is necessary to build water conservancy projects."
Lu Chensheng did not hesitate, "This matter is left to you. If it is a high mountain place, a screw pump can be used as a water suction tool to draw out the water."
As long as a blade is installed at the bottom of the screw pump to drive the screw pump to rotate, no manpower is needed.
This is considered an inverted siphon, and it can be of great help in water conservancy.
When Wang Tianxun heard this, he immediately responded.
With the help of cement and screw pumps, the water conservancy project he planned could be completed as quickly as possible and at a very low cost.
"Sir, there is still a shortage of hundreds of officials at present, and the imperial examination should still be carried out."
Du Rufang took a step forward and said, "The number of officials here in the main hall is very pitiful. We can't continue like this."
We still need to continue to recruit officials who should be recruited, and we should also increase the number of ministers in the court.
"Okay, you go and do this."
Lu Chensheng nodded.
"According to the development direction given by Your Excellency, handicraft production should be vigorously developed now, including cotton textile industry, silk weaving industry, ceramics industry, paper making industry, mining and metallurgy industry, etc. Your Excellency's loom should be promoted and other manufacturing workshops should be built.
After selling the loom, we will definitely be able to increase production.
In addition, for these textile and smelting industries, more research should be done on the technology. If it can be improved, it will definitely promote the development of the industry."
Having followed Lu Chensheng for a long time, several officials present knew the future development direction and goals, and also understood how much the development of these industries would contribute to the recovery and development of the economy.
Therefore, when talking about this, it is always clear-cut and there is a development strategy.
"This is indispensable. Weaver looms have been explained before. There are ten companies that will build and sell them. As for other industrial technologies, reward them. If anyone can improve the manufacturing industry, reward them according to the degree of improvement. The minimum reward is ten
Two pieces of silver."
It is a wise choice to gather talents from all over the world.
The wisdom of the ancients is beyond imagination. Lu Chensheng has never thought that the ancients were stupid.
After the reward is offered, there will definitely be some stimulation for this industry.
"yes."
After Lu Chensheng finished speaking, a minister immediately responded.
"Although the Director of Ceremonies has been established, there is insufficient manpower. The Ministry of Rites needs to pay more attention to this aspect."
Lu Chensheng turned to look at Yang Zhiyuan and said.
"Subordinates take orders."
When Yang Zhiyuan heard this, he immediately responded.
"Is there enough land in the country now? How many fertile fields are there? How many mines are there?"
Li Daifu looked a little embarrassed when he heard this, "Sir, this has not been found out yet."
When autumn came last year, I was busy fighting everywhere. After the fighting, there were so many things to do. This survey was indeed not that easy.
How long has it been since then? How could it be so easy to complete the survey?
When Lu Chensheng heard this, he had no choice but to know that the other party indeed had a heavy task.
"Keep this in mind."
"yes!"
Seeing that Lu Chensheng did not blame him, Li Daifu breathed a sigh of relief.
By the time Lu Chensheng finished making arrangements, it was already noon.
The ministers were all very hungry at this time. They had all arrived before dawn in the morning, so they were naturally very hungry at this time.
.......
"Huh, I'm so tired."
After Lu Chensheng returned to the inner courtyard and sat down, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The whole morning was spent discussing various matters with the ministers, which really made Lu Chensheng very tired.
Xiaoyu has already prepared lunch.
"Things can take things slowly, why should husband be in such a hurry?"
Qiong Yue walked up to him and said softly.
"If we deal with it earlier and release the policy earlier, we can also stimulate the economy as soon as possible. But my wife doesn't know that the per capita income based on rough calculation is not even one tael of silver a year."
Lu Chensheng smiled bitterly.
This is the data given by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development this morning. The population is about 30 million households, but the per capita annual income is not even one tael of silver.
Qiong Yue was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "Can't you even earn one tael of silver a year?"
"You don't know, Madam, that there are many jobs to make a living in Seoul, but the average monthly average for each job is only about one hundred copper coins, and you can only earn more than one tael of silver in a year.
Just a little more than one tael of silver has made the people live very happily, but what about the lives of those people who are far less than one tael of silver?"
The Ministry of Revenue did not give a prepared value, but after careful comparison, you can probably know one thing.
The conditions in Xinghan City are so good. If you earn more than one tael of silver a year, you can be considered very wealthy.
The conditions in other places are harsh. This is less than one tael of silver. How much is the difference? Is it half the difference or is it a few tens of copper coins?
None of these gave a specific figure, but Lu Chensheng could still guess.
When Qiong Yue heard this, she also felt that it was indeed difficult for Lu Chensheng to handle it calmly without being extremely anxious.
Lu Chensheng sat down and put aside the things he had just recorded.
During the meeting just now, Lu Chensheng also memorized a lot of things, which will be dealt with later.
Just rely on your own mind to remember it, or you will forget it later.
In addition, what worries Lu Chensheng is that the treasury has begun to express its urgency.
