Chapter 545
Liu Xinqi was very happy after hearing this: "Well done. Redundant officials have been a stubborn problem that has been difficult to solve for various regimes since ancient times. I am very happy that you can further reduce the demand for officials. However, we must still be cautious and the efficiency of governance cannot be reduced. The people’s control cannot be reduced.”

"No." Luo Cheng responded.

"The solution to redundant officials is mainly because the proportion of soldiers among officials has increased, so that our various policies can be better implemented. Only by being consistent can we finally achieve this step." Lu Ren also intervened in this topic.

"Yes, since ancient times, there have been policies from above and countermeasures from below. Everyone wants to be more relaxed. It is best to get a lot of money every day and not have to do any work. This has led to redundant officials." Luo Chengdao.

With fighters with absolute execution ability, this problem does not exist.They can fully implement the orders of their superiors and can effectively supervise their colleagues around them.

Therefore, the strings of the official system of the Xinghan League were very tight.

Liu Xinqi understood the key, but coming from a later generation, he knew that relaxation and relaxation were the long-term solution.

"Since everyone is working so hard, benefits must be improved and reasonable vacations must be arranged, otherwise it will be inappropriate to tire anyone out."

Soldiers have superhuman physiques and can hold up, but ordinary officials are just ordinary people. If the work standards are the same as those of soldiers, there will definitely be problems.

"Understood, we will make improvements before the end of May." Luo Cheng and Lu Ren stood up and promised.

……

On April 22, Liu Xinqi came to the military camp outside the city.

Liu Xinyuan's Fourth Brigade returned to Penglai with [-] Xingren Yijun who had been initially reorganized.

Liu Xinqi mainly came to see Xiao En (Ruan Xiaoqi). According to Mr. Xiao's report, Xiao En has a very strong water fighting ability and is a natural naval commander.

Liu Xin'ang has been muttering in front of Liu Xinqi recently that he wants to send Ruan Xiaoqi over to take charge of the army's river fleet.

Gao Yuan also begged Liu Xinqi and wanted Ruan Xiaoqi to go to the navy and be responsible for building a new fleet, specifically responsible for maintaining the order of maritime trade in the Yellow Sea and the northern waters, freeing up the second and third fleets to continue developing southward.

Liu Xinqi came here today just to meet him in person and see how good this Ruan Xiaoqi really is.

When they arrived at the military camp, Ruan Xiaoqi was eating with his colleagues.According to the plan, after this meal, officers such as Ruan Xiaoqi will be separated from ordinary soldiers. The soldiers will enter the recruit training camp for training, and the officers will enter the martial arts hall for training.

New recruits need to train for three months, while officers need at least one year, and they must pass the assessment before they can join the army. Otherwise, they will be given up, or transferred to second- and third-line units such as the garrison and reserves.

"Shaun!" the guard yelled.

"Here!" Ruan Xiaoqi immediately put down his bowls and chopsticks, stood up and stood towards the guard who called his name.

Since being reorganized, these rebels have been briefly trained by the soldiers of the [-]th Brigade on the road.

"come over."

"Yes!"

Xiao En walked up to Liu Xinqi, raised his head and looked at Liu Xinqi, and Liu Xinqi also looked at him.

"Ruan Xiaoqi, have you seen Sun Li when you passed by Haicang Town?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"Reporting to the leader, my name is Xiao En." Ruan Xiaoqi was smart enough to recognize Liu Xinqi when he met him for the first time without anyone introducing him.

"Okay, if you enter the Xinghan League, you can restore your real name, and no one can do anything to you. I think your ancestors would definitely not want you to change your surname to Xiao." Liu Xinqi said.

Ruan Xiaoqi's eyes immediately turned red after hearing this.

Since ancient times, a man has never changed his name in office and his surname in office.

This sentence refers to not concealing one's real name under any circumstances.The "Zuo" in it refers to sitting together. When the clan is punished, it is not necessary to change the surname because of the sitting.

It can be seen that in the eyes of the ancients, surnames are more important than life.In order to be able to raise her daughter, Ruan Xiaoqi changed her name to Xiao En, which was a very last resort in itself.Now that I have the opportunity to restore my real name and surname openly, I am naturally willing to do so.

And from Liu Xinqi's words, we can know that Liu Xinqi will not pursue the crime of his previous pseudonym.

"Thank you, lord."

"Where is your daughter?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"I arranged for someone to take him with me and have been marching with the army. Now I should find a place to stay temporarily in the city." Ruan Xiaoqi replied.

"Have you met Sun Li?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"Yes, not only Sun Li, but Sun Xin and Sister-in-law Gu have also met." Ruan Xiaoqi must have remembered the scene of meeting his old friend, and the expression on his face became much more relaxed.

"Now if I invite you to join our Xinghan Alliance, would you be willing?" Liu Xinqi asked: "Answer with your heart and never force me."

Having met Sun Li and others, Sun Li must have enlightened Ruan Xiaoqi, and Ruan Xiaoqi was able to insist on coming to Penglai and bring his daughter with him. In all likelihood, he has already figured it out and agreed with the Xinghan Alliance.

After hearing this question, Ruan Xiaoqi did not answer immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes slightly, organized his words, and then said sincerely:

"On the way to Penglai, I felt completely at home when I saw that the people could live and work in peace and contentment despite the locust plague. After all, I am also a parent. My daughter can live in a stable and harmonious country and spend her life in peace. expectations.”

"Do you mind letting me see your abilities?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"No problem. It's hard to show other aspects. I'll just show you my best breath-holding technique."

"can."

Ruan Xiaoqi asked someone to bring him a basin of water, took a few deep breaths, and after calming his breathing, he plunged into the water.

One breath, two breaths...

Ten breaths, a hundred breaths...

Until a quarter of an hour later, Ruan Xiaoqi still didn't raise his head, and bubbles were already floating in the basin.

After nearly a hundred breaths of time, Ruan Xiaoqi finally raised his head from the basin and gasped for air.

[It’s been more than 10 minutes]

Liu Xinqi silently calculated in his heart.

You must know that the Guinness World Record for holding one's breath in later generations is only 22 minutes. The premise of this time is that the person holding one's breath has inhaled oxygen for a long time in advance, so that there is a large amount of oxygen in the blood, so that he can hold one's breath for 22 minutes.

Ruan Xiaoqi does not have such conditions.

"I can dive underwater and swim a hundred steps away." Ruan Xiaoqi's chest rose and fell violently, but he was able to speak clearly.

One hundred steps is 150 meters.

It’s basically the limit of the human body.

Judging from the way Ruan Xiaoqi's chest swelled when he took a deep breath to prepare, his lung capacity is really far beyond that of ordinary people.

With these two skills alone, Ruan Xiaoqi is qualified enough to hold the position of mid-level or above officer in the Xinghan League.

With his performance in Liangshan and during the Xingren Yijun period, it is fully demonstrated that Ruan Xiaoqi also has extraordinary talents in commanding water battles.
