The Yin-Yang Art of the Early Yuan Dynasty

Chapter 36 Three arrows fired together
In the Great Song Dynasty, once a city has its own name, it means that it will become an important military and political place in the future. No matter whether the city is rich or poor in the future, it will not be abandoned.

In the morning light, a new city name was born, and the good news spread across the streets and alleys of the city in an instant, and people walked out of their homes to celebrate this joyful moment.

The fourth prince didn't expect that a small move could make this city glow with such a powerful charm, which was beyond their expectation.

The fourth prince spoke, and the process of naming the city was quickly initiated.It won't be long before the city has a name of its own.

"Mr. Fan is really a strange person. We have done so much for this city, why not change the name. The father's vision is beyond our siblings!" The fourth prince sighed sincerely.

"Sister, congratulations to fourth brother." Seeing that the fourth prince was so happy, the little princess felt happy for him from the bottom of her heart.

"Let's go, let's pay a visit to Mr. Fan!" The fourth prince looked at the only younger sister and said lovingly.

The fourth prince and the little princess left the palace when they were young. Under Fang Shizhuo's arrangement, they did a lot of things, but they were very unfamiliar with managing the development of a city.

The fourth prince is not Yelang's arrogant generation. If he doesn't understand, he will humbly ask others for advice until he understands it himself.Now with the teacher Fan Jin, the fourth prince can be said to be like a tiger with wings added.

"Mr. Fan, it's so early to bother you again. Listening to what you have to say is better than ten years of reading. The little princess and I want to ask you a few questions, so please enlighten me." The fourth prince stood at the gate of Fan Jin's small courtyard and said softly.

"His Royal Highness Fourth Prince and High Princess, please come in quickly. The two of you are coming to the humble house, full of splendor." The formalities and etiquette of the officialdom have been familiar to scholars since they were young.

Ever since Fan Jinxiu became immortal, these hypocritical rules and regulations made Fan Jin feel uncomfortable.Staying in front of the fourth prince made Fan Jin fascinated by the unrestrained life.

In the past, I wanted to squeeze my head into the officialdom and become a small group of powerful people who could do some practical things for the villagers.After cultivating immortality, it turned out that such trivial matters were not worth mentioning at all, not only life, but also my vision improved a lot.

Right now, the potential threat from the human world has not been eliminated, and Fan Jin can only be subject to the secular rules.When things are over here, Fan Jin is ready to go to the spirit world, and pursue the ultimate path from then on.

The fourth prince and the little princess didn't know Fan Jin's thoughts. The purpose of the two people's visit to Fan Jin was very simple.

This kind of apprenticeship is only a verbal honorific title, no matter whether there is a major change in the title or etiquette, this is also a disguised recognition of Fan Jin's identity.

By doing so, the fourth prince and the little princess gave Fan Jin the power of life and death in the entire Dawn City.In the future, Fan Jin will have full control over the development of Chenxi City.

"The name of the city has been determined. In the next step, we will lift the restrictions on civilians and let them freely choose to stay or stay. If they don't want to stay, let them leave Dawn City within a limited time without hindrance." Fan Jin looked at the fourth prince. Said.

"My little sister and I trust Mr. Guo, so naturally we won't doubt Mr.'s decision, but I don't understand what Mr. said. If the people here have been harmed by monsters for a long time, who would like to stay?" The fourth prince asked puzzledly.

Not only the fourth prince has this doubt, even the little princess and Er Gouzi also don't understand.Before it was Fan Jin who said that the people stayed because of the Great Song Kingdom, but now he made such a decision, wouldn't it be contradictory!
"Everyone listen to me carefully. Before issuing this order, we still need to shoot three arrows. If we don't have these three arrows, even if you give me a hundred guts, I won't dare to do it." Fan Jin laughed Said.

"Which three arrows, sir, please tell me clearly." The fourth prince couldn't wait to know Fan Jin's brilliant move.

"The first arrow is to equalize the land and reduce taxes. Allocate the unowned land to the common people for cultivation. The land ownership belongs to Chenxi City. After three years of cultivation, the land use right belongs to the individual." Fan Jin said thoughtfully.

"Gao, in this way, the villagers can get rid of the control of those landlords and turn to our city lord's mansion. In this way, I can not only increase tax revenue, but also strengthen the centralization of power." The fourth prince praised in high spirits.

Fan Jin nodded approvingly. These four princes are indeed extremely intelligent. He can understand the way of management just by mentioning it.

"The evenly distributed land should not include those gentry's land, or we will offend them." The little princess asked cautiously.

"Of course, right now we still have to win over these merchants and gentry, so naturally we won't attack them. We encourage land reclamation, and reduce taxes for them in the first three years. People who don't have seeds, we can pay on credit, and we will return them when the dealers collect them."

These methods of Fan Jin have been heard before.When the fourth prince and the little princess were young, they were all taught by the masters of the palace, but they never had the opportunity to practice it.Now that Fan Jin said it, it was like enlightenment, and he instantly understood the truth.

"Mr. Fan, where is the second arrow?" The fourth prince looked eagerly, expectantly.

"The second arrow is to establish free schools and medical centers. The teachers of the schools and the doctors of the medical centers are invited by the city lord's mansion. Official residents of the city are free to go to school and see a doctor." Fan Jin said with a smile.

"Free? If it goes on for a long time, it won't make ends meet, and it won't last long. This is not waiting for others to see a joke." Er Gouzi asked puzzled.

The fourth prince was also full of doubts like the little princess. The ability to persevere in Chenxi City all these years was due to the little money he had saved before. It would not be long before the fourth prince wanted to give alms, but he had no money in his pocket.

"Schools not only need to be run, but also run well. They spend a lot of money to hire good teachers, and the same is true for medical centers. Both schools and medical centers are divided into noble areas and common people. The noble part not only charges fees, but also charges high. The common people Free, not completely free. If they don’t pay, they have to contribute, such as building the city wall and collecting herbs in the mountains, all of which can accumulate work points. A certain amount of work points can be exchanged for free schooling and medical treatment opportunities.” Fan Jin explained .

"Understood, I understand, those who have money, for the sake of their children and their families, don't care about the little money. The money they pay can fully guarantee the operation of the school and the medical center, and even have a lot of savings." The little princess smiled. said.

"Of course, we mainly attract people and scholars. These two types of people are what we need to win over. As for gentry and merchants, as long as we don't destroy their vested interests, they will not interfere with us." Fan Jin explained .

"Mr. Fan's third arrow should be aimed at the sergeant, right?" the fourth prince said with a smile.

"Heroes see the same thing. The fourth prince is a hero among men. You can understand Fan's intentions at a glance." Fan Jin catered.

"Please tell me clearly, sir?" The little princess was puzzled by the two men's mutual flattery.

"The third arrow is indeed aimed at the soldiers. Without soldiers, we are tigers without teeth. No one is afraid of us. We need to arm ourselves as soon as possible."

"Soldiers shed their blood on the front line. When we distribute food and salaries, we must ensure the safety and smoothness of their families."

"Therefore, all family members of soldiers enjoy free privileges, whether they study or see a doctor. If a soldier is killed in battle, the City Lord's Mansion will be responsible for dealing with the aftermath of his family." Fan Jin said while watching everyone's expressions.

Fan Jin slowed down as much as possible, so that they could understand what he wanted to express, so that he could explain to them later.Seeing Fan Jin stop, everyone began to slowly recall the meaning of Fan Jin's words.

"All soldiers should be provided with good training grounds. For those with good qualifications who can cultivate immortality, the City Lord's Mansion will provide training materials."

Fan Jin confessed his three strategies in one breath, and the rest was for them to digest.Everyone's comprehension ability is limited, and how much they can absorb depends on their own creation.

The fourth prince and the little princess didn't know anything about cultivating immortals. They understood the former, but the latter involved cultivating immortals. After Fan Jin explained for a long time, the two understood a little.

Fan Jin's strategies are very detailed. If these three arrows are shot, even if Chen Xi loosens the restrictions, not many people will leave.

On the contrary, as long as such favorable conditions spread to other cities, it is estimated that many people will rush to come to Dawn City.With people, there is no need to worry about development.

However, these are plans, and whether they can be implemented will require further practice.In theory, these conditions are attractive enough, even Er Gouzi is reluctant to leave Dawn City.

Under Fan Jin's guidance, the fourth prince talked with the little princess about many details.After chatting, the two left in a hurry.There are too many things absorbed today, and they want to implement these details as soon as possible.

For the fourth prince, what he lacks most is time.All policies take time to see results and cannot be achieved overnight.Compared with other princes, the fourth prince lacks troops and major generals and is very weak.

Many details were worked out quickly, and with the efforts of the fourth prince and the little princess, the doctors in the hospital and the teachers in the school found suitable candidates.For the two of them, there is still some connection.

Immediately afterwards, the details of the first arrow, the second arrow, and the third arrow were posted to the gate of the city one after another. The fourth prince and the little princess temporarily changed the address of their residence to the city lord's mansion, and the fourth prince successfully became the first city lord. , Fan Jin hung up an honorary deputy city lord.

Sure enough, as Fan Jin expected, after some rectification of the civilians in the city, only a few people left Dawn City in the end, and most of them stayed.

Since the promulgation of the detailed rules, the city of Chenxi has become extremely lively. The trading market, which was originally deserted, suddenly became popular.It's not because of the things sold there, but because many people have seen the business opportunities here and started to set up booths.

The fourth prince and the little princess are very busy.Fan Jin and Er Gouzi were not idle either, and the entire Chenxi City began to move like a beast that had just woken up.

Everything here cannot be hidden from the eyeliner of other princes.The changes in Chenxi City were quietly conveyed to their masters by various spies in different ways.

"Big Brother, Fourth Brother was instructed by an expert, let's make trouble for him."

After receiving the secret report, the sixth prince consulted with the eldest prince immediately.The situation was already chaotic, and they didn't take the fourth prince seriously before.

Unexpectedly, the movement made by the weakest prince made several princes very passive.If they don't care, the actions of the fourth prince have the power to shake their morale.
