Kai Fu Han

Chapter 584 Beijing
On the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon looked up.

The sea ice in Penglai Port has completely melted, and the first fleet heading to Daxing Prefecture has officially set off.

The First Fleet, the Third Fleet, and the Fourth Fleet plus more than 200 transport ships.

Loading and sailing are carried out at the same time. Once a ship is loaded, one will be set off directly. The entire fleet stretches for more than ten miles.

In the next few months, this transportation line like a march of ants will exist, transferring all important items from Penglai to Daxing Prefecture.

Liu Xinqi and his family were on the Kunlun Mountain, the latest mountain-class warship, which sailed very smoothly.

The fleet crossed the Bohai Sea all the way, entered the Jiehe River from the outlet of the Jiehe River, then entered the Lugou River, went all the way up the Lugou River, and finally stopped at Guangli Town in the south of Daxing Prefecture.

"Get off the boat and you'll be at Daxing Mansion" didn't come true. In the end, we had to drive for an hour before we entered Wanping City.

Wanping City is the central capital of the Jin Kingdom. There is a palace built by the Jin Kingdom in the city. It covers an area of ​​more than [-] acres. It is already very luxurious. Compared with the small courtyard in Penglai, it is a world of difference.

Liu Xinqi and his family moved directly into this palace. Only Liu Xinqi's family and some servants lived in this palace.

"This palace has been renovated, and Penglai has all the modern facilities, including flush toilets, running water, etc." Fang Changwu took Liu Xinqi around the palace, explaining as he walked.

"You are serious. It would be a waste to only live in our family in such a big palace." Liu Xinqi was not used to it.

"The country is about to be founded. The palace you live in is the face of our Xinghan League, so we can't be careless." Fang Changwu explained: "If it weren't for time, we would definitely build our own palace instead of using the old palace of the Jin Kingdom. Transformation.”

"I still think it's too wasteful. There are only four of us in the family, and including the servants you arranged, we won't have more than 100 people. It is estimated that most of the palace complex of more than 400 acres will be idle."

"What do you mean?" Fang Changwu had just been appointed Minister of Rites, and he did not dare to reject Liu Xinqi's suggestions again and again.

"All the guards who guard the palace can be arranged to move in. Some houses will be drawn around the perimeter, and all of them will be used for offices in the Third Courtyard. One hundred acres will be enough for me." Liu Xinqi suggested.

"But this palace is given to you as a result of the deliberation of all the academy ministers..." Fang Changwu wanted to explain, but was directly interrupted by Liu Xinqi.

"That's it, it's settled, 'A mansion with a thousand rooms, a night's sleep of seven feet'. A palace with a hundred acres is enough for our family. I can't afford to rent three palaces and six courtyards. It won't use many rooms."

"Okay, then it's up to you." Fang Changwu responded.

Liu Xinqi's attitude was very firm, and Fang Changwu did not dare to say anything.

"With the ready-made buildings, the departments of the three hospitals can move in directly to work for the time being. Later, when the new office location is built, it will not be too late to move." Liu Xinqi told the guards following him.

"Yes!" The guard turned around and conveyed Liu Xinqi's order.

The central hub agency cannot suspend operations for a long time.With the houses allocated by Liu Xinqi, I believe that various departments will soon be able to allocate them and put them into use through various means.

After finishing the tour of the palace, it was already afternoon. Liu Xinqi said goodbye to everyone and returned to the palace. Zhou Yue had already arranged for someone to prepare a meal and wait for him.

"Don't wait for me next time. There must be a lot of things to do when you come here. You may not come back for dinner, and you may not have time to send someone to notify you." Liu Xinqi reminded seeing that the food on the table was already warm.

"Okay." Zhou Yue responded while serving rice to Liu Xinqi, not sure whether he heard it or not.

"Where is the child?" Liu Xinqi asked. "Just finished feeding and went to bed."

"Okay, I have something to talk to you about." Liu Xinqi asked Zhou Yue to sit down: "I promised you to continue working. I will arrange the work. Today I will tell you about your specific work."

"Okay." Zhou Yue put down the rice bowl in her hand. Lu Congxue was putting her children to bed and was not at the dinner table.

"The first one is the secretary's office. I need to build a secretary's office to help me handle various government affairs. If you are willing, you can be the director of the secretary's office." Liu Xinqi said.

"Doesn't that mean the working hours are very long?" Zhou Yue asked.

"It's very long." Liu Xinqi replied: "If you don't want to, there are other positions."

"Um".Zhou Yue responded and signaled Liu Xinqi to continue.

"I plan that the main responsibility of the Urban Women and Children's Federation is to protect the interests of women and children, prevent the sale of women and children within the country, and improve the status of women." Liu Xinqi introduced again.

"This...sounds interesting." Zhou Yue hesitated.

"This can't be done. Anyone can do it. Yueyue can't do it." Lu Congxue walked out of the room.

"Why?" Liu Xinqi was puzzled.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhou Yue was the mother of the country, so she didn't just do this kind of thing to protect women and children. Why was this blocked by Lu Congxue.

"First of all, since this department is newly established, there is no telling whether it will produce results. There will definitely be a lot of problems. It is very likely that Zhou Yue will have to bear these problems, so he can't go."

Liu Xinqi wanted to say that he would not let Zhou Yue take the blame, but it suddenly occurred to him that the Women's Federation was unfamiliar to him. He only knew it by a name. He really had no idea how it worked and could not give Zhou Yue any advice, so there would definitely be problems in the early stage. Continuously.

"Makes sense."

"Secondly, as Zhou Yue is the mother of the country, what level do you plan to set up this department? Do you think Zhou Yue has to bow down and salute when meeting deans such as Luo Cheng and Lu Ren?" Lu Congxue asked again.

"The Women's Federation, like the Department of Health, is directly under my management, but it is a ministerial-level department." Liu Xinqi replied, already realizing that it was inappropriate: "It seems that we can only change it to another one."

"I won't change it. I think this one is pretty good." Zhou Yue answered. She didn't recommend calling Dean Luo Cheng, but it wasn't like she had never called him before.

"Listen to the second one first." Liu Xinqi said to Zhou Yue: "I plan to build a girls' school that will only accept female students. Are you interested in being the principal of this girls' school?"

This work is very consistent with Zhou Yue’s previous work at the Ministry of Education.

At present, in the basic education of Xinghan League, the enrollment rate of girls is very low, and they are all the children of ordinary people.The children of the gentry were all ill, taking medicine, and did not attend school.

When Si Lianxiang reported her work to Liu Xinqi later that year, she mentioned: "The gentry and wealthy people are not unwilling to pay for girls in their own families, but they want to see if they have been harassed or hooked up with boys of the same age. , his innocence was stained.”

In school, when you are young, it is easy for your hormones to be strong.

The daughters of these big families are the capital of future political marriages and cannot be tarnished.
