Chapter 94: Discussions in the Palace
"Your Majesty, this is Xia's lawsuit plan, please take a look at it. wanopen.com"
In the majestic palace, Lorraine Hill was sitting in the main hall discussing matters with the ministers, and the official Xia Yu Caifeng presented the completed plan and project.
According to Lorraine Hill's guidance, the current dynasty is full of waste. The first thing is to restore the people's livelihood and agriculture that has been stagnant due to the war, and then organize people from all over the country to open up and level the roads during the slack period. The major local factions also have the responsibility to assist. It is necessary to connect the 134 continents of the world within three years.
Transportation is the most important guarantee of national dominance. If it takes several months to reach certain states and counties from the central government, it is hard to say how much the central government still has the ability to rule and govern the local area. In addition, the deployment and transportation of various resources are also very dependent on good transportation.
Lorraine Hill's idea is that within ten years, it is not difficult to connect all the eastern states to the railway and start electrification, but it is not impossible.
There is already a mature technology accumulation in the Western Continent, and a group of technicians will be dispatched to teach it after a while, but what is more important behind the rails and trains is the support of the steelmaking industry.
Mining, explosives, steelmaking, chemical fertilizers, agriculture, electricity, trains, a series of engineering projects have to be started quickly. Lorraine Hill estimates that it will take fifteen years at the earliest before the East can barely catch up with the current progress of the Western Continent.
Recently, she heard that Solander, the capital of Crancia, has been fully electrified, and her own statue was illuminated with colorful lights all night. Although the latter one wanted to complain, but she is now a mature big shot, so she endured it.
Thanks to the harmonization of the dragon vein system, the East has a good harvest time much longer than the West, and even has a record of 80 consecutive good years. This is also the case. The Eastern Land has nurtured more populations, which is not enough in the Western Continent. If we can make good use of these population advantages now, it will be of great benefit in the later period.
After turning his mind for a long time, Lorraine Hill also read the plan in his hand, handed it to the clerk beside him, and made a record.
"Let's make it so. The country will try its best to meet the personnel and materials needed in the middle."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Seeing that the achievements of his department for more than a month were recognized, hundreds of officials in the Xia lawsuit were very excited.
Seeing them like this, Lorraine Hill also felt a little relieved and happy, nodded slightly, and then stood up.
"Xia's case is now complete, what is the progress of Chun's case?" She stepped down from the jade seat and looked to the other side of the hall, where there were more than 300 people belonging to Chun's case.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I'm afraid it will take a few days to finish sorting it out." The current official Chun comes from Nandou Academy. After Jixia Academy was abolished, Nandou Academy is now the highest school in China.
"There's no need to be in a hurry, after all, you really need to be cautious about education." Lorraine Hill shook her head slightly. She didn't mean to blame, but just wanted to know where the current progress and situation are.
Although the new Chief Chun is capable, he is sometimes too cautious. He seems to be very afraid of being scolded by her. Now that he thinks about it, he may have been frightened. After all, many masters and bachelors in Jixia Academy have been imprisoned by him.
For this reason, Lorraine Hill had no choice but to soften his voice again, comforting everyone in the lawsuit, and asked them to show him the unfinished plan first, and ask any questions in advance, lest they get entangled in unnecessary details.
Compared with the Western Continent, the history of the Eastern Continent is much thicker. This does not mean that the history of the Eastern Continent is longer than that of the Western Continent, but that the traditional burden accumulated in the Eastern Continent is heavy. The Five Phoenixes brought rise and prosperity, but also formed a strong historical inertia and tradition. It will be a lot of trouble to break free from this shackles.
Although the Church of Angels was at its peak in the Western Continent, due to the struggle for royal power, the Church did not completely occupy the secular spiritual world, and the Church of Angels in the Cangcui Empire was even different from place to place, and was not directly controlled by the leaders of the Sanctuary.
Compared with the west, the clans in the east are very powerful, even closed. The powerful clans have the money to sponsor more students of the clan to study in the academy, and then become officials in the court. They have more resources to train the younger generation, so that they can pass the selection of factions and sects, and enter the big sects for further study and study.
If such a clan is strong enough, it will form a so-called aristocratic family. For example, the Dongshan Wang family who once supported King Huainan, whose ancestors had followed the saint to study under the banyan tree.
About 300 years ago, the aristocratic families at that time were so rampant that they even interfered in the struggle for succession in the royal family. After the new emperor came to the throne, with the support of Chifeng, he once suppressed the major families in the dynasty.
The reason why the Southwest Continents have not formed a large family like the East is now because the most powerful Zhang family in the Southwest Continents was liquidated for the new emperor at that time, and the whole family was punished.
Later, even if clans rose up in the Southwest Continents, they learned from the past and restrained themselves a lot. For example, the Haibi family, who led the "Bibo Tianhai Pavilion", although powerful, has always maintained its power in the West Sea Mansion and the sea, and has never set foot in any industry inland, so as not to arouse the fear of the emperor.
clan power
It needs to be weakened, but Lorraine Hill will not solve it directly by killing like the former emperor. She is not the kind of leader who relies on blood or ministers to support her enthronement. Now her state can be compared to the founding monarch in history. She has extremely high prestige and dominance over the country. She can easily promote some policies and ideas that were difficult for emperors to implement in the past, and the world has responded one after another.
This kind of leeway is not possessed by many emperors, and only Wufeng can compare with the current Lorraine Hill. Well, maybe it is a bit bullying to compare her with the former emperors. After all, it is a phoenix, the belief and destiny of the East.
First of all, to dilute the seats occupied by traditional aristocratic families in the power system, it is necessary to adopt a selection mechanism that is extremely fair and not easily monopolized. In the past, the imperial examination system was adopted in the East, which is much improved than the ancient recommendation system. However, receiving education is still a privilege held by a small number of people.
Only by breaking the unfairness of education can we break the monopoly in the selection mechanism, and this requires extremely good public schools, and we must always maintain that public schools are better than private schools.
If public schools are not as good as private schools, then everything is back to the original point. A small number of privileged people have better educational resources and gradually monopolize the upward channels.
How to make public schools better than private schools requires a series of personnel training mechanisms, as well as excellent treatment mechanisms, not only salary, but also corresponding social status, giving outstanding teachers certain titles, and giving preferential treatment in pensions, illnesses, placements, etc.
But at the same time, there must be higher moral requirements for teachers, so that they can match the social status they have obtained.
Rights and responsibilities are a balance that needs to be balanced. If there are great responsibilities but very little rights and extremely low remuneration, this will chill the hearts of practitioners and cause brain drain and withering. They will also become extremely easy to shake, and will unconsciously look for other gray channels to make up for this gap and dissatisfaction, and achieve inner balance.
In addition, if the rights are great, the remuneration is extremely superior, and the responsibilities are very few, this will form redundancy. Although the harm may be less, this part will spontaneously expand, breed arrogance, and gradually erode the interests of other industries or the whole, until the tail is too big and the whole situation is destroyed.
Just imagine, if a teacher has the power of life and death over students, and the treatment is excellent, he is not subject to any moral accusation, and is basically exempt from legal responsibility. Without restraint, if one of such teachers has bad intentions, it will harm generations of people, causing countless tragedies for families, and the image of the whole teacher will also fall.
Fairness is indeed difficult, but it will be an eternal pursuit. From ancient times to the present, human civilization is a process from injustice to fairness. It makes a country full of vitality, gives people hope to work hard, and makes the whole society flourish.
It is precisely because of this awareness that Lorraine Hill attaches great importance to the plan drawn up by Chun's lawsuit, and must inquire carefully in person. Education is the most important cornerstone of social justice.
After inquiring about the spring lawsuit, Lorraine Hill walked towards the place where everyone gathered in the autumn lawsuit. These officials in charge of criminal laws were a little colder than other officials of the four seasons. Perhaps they had seen too many bizarre and ugly things in the world, so they were quite indifferent. Lorraine Hill turned some thoughts in his mind, and then asked them to talk about the recent situation.
"Your Majesty, the constitution has been preliminarily drawn up, but because some materials from Yuanzhou County have not yet been delivered, it will take a week to wait." The current Qiu Guanzhang comes from Xuanyi Palace.
Now that the country is newly established, Lorraine Hill has supported the 'Xuanyi Palace' as the door, and many members of this faction have also rejoined the country's judicial system. As the descendants of Xuanfeng Dianji, they have always abided by their past traditions and pursued cruel justice.
However, heavy codes are used in troubled times, and now is the time when strict laws are needed, so she will hold back this urge and try not to interfere with their legislation.
"Although the 'Xuanyi Palace' has become a door-to-door now, whether you can stand firm in the future and gain the recognition of other factions depends on whether you can make achievements in this legislation and convince the other factions." ’ A few months ago, Lorraine Hill told the head of Xuanyi Palace in this way to motivate them, which made everyone in Xuanyi Palace mobilize, paying great attention and excitement.
Sometimes looking at Qiu Lisi's lights that lasted all night, Lorraine Hill would also wonder if he was a bit bad, and the motivation was too much, but he still comforted himself, it was all for the future, and only this generation could work hard.
After reading the draft constitution, Lorraine Hill made some minor revisions, and then continued to walk to the end of the main hall, where everyone standing in the winter lawsuit.
Dong's lawsuit can be said to be the military department of the country today. The construction of the army, the research and development of weapons, the manufacturing, storage and maintenance of equipment, etc., are all in charge of Dong's lawsuit.
Compared with other departments, the task of the winter lawsuit is not heavy now. The dynasty is initially established, and there is no need for additional military expansion, and the new equipment has not yet been fully formed. After a few years, the equipment will be roughly finalized, and the corresponding actual combat training will be carried out. Now, the main task is to reform the military system and improve the entire administrative and deployment system.
"Your Majesty." Seeing this lady wearing an orchid golden phoenix dress, she is soft and charming
The girl who didn't dare to look down upon walked in, and Officer Dong bowed his head with his hands folded.
Compared with the many reports and narrations of other officials of the four seasons, he seems to be a bit at a loss what to say. After all, there are really not many things in the winter lawsuit, and he only talked to Lorraine Hill a few days ago.
"I also know your progress, so you don't need to be too cautious." Lorraine Hill shook his head.
Seeing that the girl didn't mean to blame, everyone in Dong's lawsuit relaxed a little, and then felt the envious and envious eyes cast by the other officials of the four seasons, as if they were saying, why you can be so idle.
"You will be the protagonists in the future, but you still need to wait in dormancy. If you have some free time, you can let soldiers participate in some local construction projects to make up for the shortage of manpower in some areas. This will also make the image of the army softer and more friendly among the people."
Although it is said that the more ruthless and powerful the soldiers are when facing the enemy, the soldiers are also human beings, and they also need a strong internal connection and support. If the army and the people are unfamiliar and isolated from each other, and there is no trust in each other, it will be a very bad scene. Once a war breaks out, an army without the support of the people will easily fall into isolation. If it has a good base of people, it will not only be easier to obtain supplementary sources of troops, but will also have advantages in intelligence, logistics, and other aspects. Moreover, they will have a seamless relationship with each other. When resisting an invasion, their will will be extra firm, because behind them are family members who trust them, not strangers who are suspicious of each other.
Although there was an army in ancient times, the relationship between the army and the people was not very good. Sometimes the army of the country was even more vicious and cruel than the robbers and thieves. There was no trust between the two sides, which also led to a lose-lose situation.
After hearing Lorraine Hill's suggestion, everyone in the Dong lawsuit agreed in unison, vigorously and unanimously. Seeing them gearing up and eager to try, Lorraine Hill was a little worried whether they would go too far, but it's not easy to dampen their enthusiasm at this time, let them try it themselves first.
Since assuming this position, Lorraine Hill has felt more and more difficult as the supreme leader, because you can't be there in person, and you must let some people assist you to complete certain things, but there will be many problems in the communication and implementation in the middle.
One is whether the other party can understand what you are saying. He may use too much force, or he may ignore the key points you are focusing on.
The second is that even if the other party understands it, the subordinates of the other party also understand it, but in practice, everyone has their own ideas and opinions, and each place has its own complicated situation.
The result is that even if the supreme leader is a perfect person with full capabilities, different distortions and deformations will occur in the transmission and implementation of information at all levels, which is a common problem in almost all national organizations in the world.
Therefore, there is no perfect individual, only perfect organizations and systems.
The larger the organization, even if it is led by the smartest people, the actual ability will slowly return to the average value of everyone in the organization. This is why education is so important and the unity of thought and value is so critical.
The future of the East will be a country where traditional and modern ideas are integrated. Lorraine Hill has a lot of expectations, and sometimes she is curious about what this country will look like in the end.
