my wife is a consul

Chapter 642 The Province of Three Talents
Dongying Jingyou City was renamed Xijing last month.

The Consulate General of the Principality of Montenegro in Japan has also moved here.

In the elegant oriental-style study room, Lu Ming sat in front of the table, flipping through the thick letters on the table.

In fact, Lu Ming had handed over most of the work to the Deputy Consul General Du Cunzhao, while he was preparing to go to the Western Regions.

There is no doubt that for a long time to come, the open and secret struggles between the Western Regions and the Sonia will become more and more intense.

In particular, he owns three oil fields in the Western Regions, and two of them, the two oil fields gifted to him by Joseph Soros, must have been coveted by the Sonia.

As far as the Western Regions are concerned, our side has also operated for many years and has a certain foundation.

Near the Bite City oil field, there is already an oil city with a population of 8 to [-], called "Xishanbao".

It was a recently changed name.

Most of the residents of Xiheishanbao are Zhongzhou people, and more than 2 of them are real military establishments. The internal designation is Xiheishanbao Petroleum Corps. Most of their family members are also Zhongzhou people, and a small number of them are married to local girls of different races.

Crude oil extracted from West Montenegro Fort is transported back to the principality by railway, and the western part is a special freight line that was built later. Instead of going southeast to Nicholas City in the center of the western city-state, go directly to the northeast, via From West Mizhou to Hanton State, and then to Hanzhou, it turns directly north, passes through the three central provinces in the traditional gathering area of ​​Zhongzhou people, crosses the river and enters the former Anshan Province in the northern region, which is now the Annan Autonomous Dominion of the Principality of Montenegro. Several states and provinces, more than 3000 kilometers, very long-distance transportation.

This is because the Principality of Montenegro has the Anshan Province in the west of the Northern Territory, which can be transported directly from the west. If it is from the oil city to Montenegro, it will take a big circle to get there, and the distance will be even further.

Although oil fields have also been discovered in the Anshan area of ​​​​the Principality of Montenegro, it is better to accumulate more strategic resources such as oil.

Therefore, although Tianhai Petroleum Group has built an oil refinery and related petrochemical plants in Xiheishanbao Oil City, only a small part of the production is consumed, and most of the crude oil is still transported back to the Principality, or stored, or Reprocessing.

I am going to go to the Western Regions as Lu Jun, but Phaya Lee will go to the three central provinces first.

The oil pipeline must be firmly controlled, and there must be no mistakes.

The situation in Japan is a bit delicate, so I will take a look at it for the time being. Although Antigua has entered a new game period, the overall situation has been set, and there will not be much change for the time being. You don't have to do everything yourself, you can use the remote control.

The oil pipeline, the three central provinces next to Ansan Province, always makes people a little confused. If there is a change, it may not be safe.

Leaving aside the far southwestern region, the front door of the house has not been firmly controlled, which is naturally a huge hidden danger.

The three central provinces are in the west of the five provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, but there are Montenegro mountains between the two sides, which makes the cultural traditions and so on very different.

The three provinces in the central part are vast and sparsely populated. They are all autonomous provinces with a population of less than [-] million. The east is the Montenegro Mountains, the west is the plateau desert to the boundless desert, the north is across the river from Ansan Province, and the south is Hanzhou.

Although the three central provinces are so close to Ansan Province and are north of Hanzhou, Lu Ming has never been to these three provinces except for taking a train through the three provinces when he escaped.

Because the three provinces in central China are really unique three provinces with unique humanistic traditions.

Its strata are strict and distinct, divided into three classes: scholars, civilians, and workers.

In my own opinion, it is just a variant of nobles, commoners and slaves.

Officials are all of scholar origin, including the recruitment of soldiers, and only the scholar group is eligible.

"People", business, factory management and so on.

"Workers", factory workers, farmers, herdsmen, service personnel, etc.

The three classes have already decided the future prospects of life since birth, and there is absolutely no possibility of changing each other, and the three classes do not allow intermarriage.

The rule of law in the three provinces is strict, and all of them are severely punished, but the law treats them equally, and the three classes are all punished the same. For example, if they steal something, they may be cut off.

For another example, if a "shi" seduces a man or woman from a "worker", it is also a crime of adultery, and the penalty for adultery committed by a "worker" is the same.

Moreover, the three central provinces are sparsely populated and rich in resources, and even the "workers" live a good life.

And Lu Ming also didn't understand, how could this social model of group barrier survive till now?

It is strange that the gentry has not been corrupted in a structure that has no supervision and relies on the ruling class to supervise itself.

Moreover, although the army recruited from the "scholar" class is not large in number, it has strong combat effectiveness, a sense of honor, and is fearless of death, and it also has funds to purchase advanced weapons.

The three provinces can be regarded as one, with each other as horns.

They believe in the "Three Talents Teaching", and the teachings are like this.

It seems that the religion was introduced to the three central provinces thousands of years ago, and the three provinces gradually formed a unique culture, and the empire never interfered with it.

Although Lu Ming was curious about these three provinces, he felt that they were too weird, so he never really set foot on the land of these three provinces.

Now that I'm seriously studying the information, while shaking my head, I suddenly can't hold back my curiosity.

The development of my previous life is completely different from this world, but I don't see all kinds of strange ruling models anymore.

……

In the afternoon, Lu Ming arrived at one of the three provinces, "Tian Dao Province".

These three provinces are divided into more than 100 counties, and there are no higher-level administrative districts. The leaders of the "Three Talents View" are all recommended from the local "scholar" clan in charge of the county.

On the whole, it is more like a loose utopian model under devout religious beliefs.

The "Three Talents View" is in "Lingyin County" in Tiandao Province.

Lu Ming's private plane parked at the airport in Lingyin County.

In terms of the three provinces, influenced by the Sancai religion, the people seem to be less keen on material enjoyment. In addition, the geographical environment is very good, the land is fertile, and there are natural fine pastures. The output meets the needs of the three provinces and is completely self-sufficient.

The main reason is that the "scholar" people are also pure-hearted and ascetic, no one lives a luxurious life, they are not keen on new technological products, and they don't need much support.

It is difficult to see cars driving on the street.

The airport in "Lingyin County" is still the only airport built in the three provinces to adapt to the new era.

The hotels in Lingyin County are all in the same pattern. There are several hotels in the county, but they all have similar conditions and can certainly meet normal needs, but there are absolutely no luxurious rooms for luxury.

All double standard rooms are neat and simple.

Walking around in the room, Lu Ming scratched his head a little. He came, but he didn't seem to have a clue.

I just went to the Sancai Temple to offer incense, but I missed the point at all, it was similar to the Taoist temple in my previous life, and the building complex was much worse than the Daoist Temple in my previous life.

He wanted to visit his so-called leader, saying that he was in retreat, even though he reported his name, saying that he was a special envoy from the Principality of Montenegro, but the little Taoist priest was still the same plain, with the same answer, "Master is in retreat."

Thinking about it, Lu Ming shook his head.

The mother-in-law Tuolong who followed her secretly didn't feel any atmosphere of the hidden world in the three-talent view.
