When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Entering Cangyi, Zixun was a little surprised by the appearance of the main house inside.

He looked at some black tiles and asked Ah Fei, "What is this?"

"Water tiles." A Fei explained, "The ones sold by Beibo can protect against wind and rain. Now they are Beibo's best export product."

Zixun walked in and raised his head. He originally thought that the room was dark and without light, but he could see many mouths revealing light: "What is this?"

"Glazed tiles are a kind of tile specially used to transmit light. They are very expensive. Basically, it takes half a roof tile to afford one. Therefore, there are only a few places with glazed tiles in the whole house."

Zixun stopped and his eyes fell deeply on A Fei.

He seemed to have noticed something and said quickly: "But this is a gift from Uncle Bei. For every 300 yuan of tiles purchased, a glazed tile will be given as a gift. There are also five tiles given by Uncle Bei when his eldest son and daughter were born. Gifts in return from all members of the Trade Federation who gave him gifts.

These five pieces were sent by the Wei brothers. They gave gifts on behalf of the master, so these five pieces are a return gift. Therefore, the Wei brothers asked me to build such a big house in Cangyi and wait for the master to come and live here. "

Zixun's expression returned to calm.

He thought that the ministers below were extravagant and lustful!
However, the changes in the north still shocked Zixun.

I heard that it has been refined a lot, and many nobles have been selected from local areas to serve as the center to oversee all internal and external affairs.

These courtyards and prisons are led by senior ministers of the fourth rank.

For example, in the Sikong Mansion, the second-rank Grand Sikong is in charge of all affairs inside and outside the yamen, and the left and right ministers of the third-rank rank are appointed as assistant ministers.

Zixun opened it and took a brief look at the text and annotations inside. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Xin Qu actually created so many characters in such a short period of time?"

The walls have specially changed the window lattice style, applied a large number of fringes, and some reliefs - including owls, cicadas, and golden crows.

Unify it into a government, and then create various departments, courtyards, and departments within the government.

When I lived there for the first time, the attic was mainly made of wood, with windows all around to let in light, and the top of my head was basically dark.

"Sikong Mansion? Woodenware Academy? Southern State-owned Group?" Zixun, who walked in, poked his head out again after hearing the words, "First of all, what does "mansion" mean?"

There has been an increase in the number of these yamen. "

When I press my hands on these reliefs, they are delicate and moist, with no burrs. They are obviously carefully crafted, but the smell is not very good, as if they are emitted by lacquer.

The chief officer of each department is one of the left and right ministers, and then it is further divided into various courtyards, supervisors, groups, groups, etc.

The previous powers and responsibilities of the elders such as Zhong Zai, Situ, Zong Bo, Sima, Sikou, Sikong, Si Nong, and Dianke were dismantled.

After entering, he could clearly feel that the two-story hut in front of him was much more perfect than the mansion where he first lived in Changping.

"These were made under the supervision of Beibei's Sikong Mansion's Yamen and Woodenware Institute, but they were sold by the Southern State-owned Group."

But now, he found that the first floor under his feet was made of large square bricks that were fitted together and the seams were filled, making it appear flat.

Zixun walked in, and some of the Amish merchant nobles who were on a business trip with Zixun grabbed A Fei and asked him questions.

"The government is the highest-level yamen. According to Bei Bo's return from Datong County, he regulated the grades of the central yamen in all four directions.

As A Fei spoke, he ordered someone to present the information he had compiled to Zixun.

Sikong Mansion has four divisions: Yingxi, Yuheng, Dushui, and State-owned.

Groups and groups are respectively affiliated with official assistants such as the sixth-grade doctor, the eighth-grade yuanwailang, and other clerical tasks.

"Where did you get all these?"

The complicated words made Zixun's pupils shrink. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have produced so many words so quickly, but he never expected that in just a few years, the number of words in the Yan Kingdom would be huge. , just like bamboo shoots springing up after a rain, popping up.

What does this represent?
Others may not know it clearly, but Zixun knows it very well. This means that the yield per mu of Yan State in the north is enough to support a group of shamans to work independently and have a leisurely life, and then concentrate on the development of culture.

This is terrible.

Zixun was busy in the south for a year or two, and then stabilized the situation around the Shang Dynasty. Then he was also busy in the north for a year or two, but Xin Qu completely transformed the administrative system of Yan State and made the salary and salary clear.

In particular, the salary system of Yan State was officially revised.

In the past, it was mainly rewarded with titles, but now it is divided into two parts, one is Lumi and the other is fief. As long as you work well for the center, the center will arrange a fiefdom for you, reduce the court's salary expenditure, and solve the problem of reclamation of border wasteland.

Because the arrangement of fiefdoms is not based on the principle of proximity, but the principle of being far away and wild.

Xinqu was based on the county as the administrative unit. From then on, the imperial court selected people, criminals, and slaves from various places to cultivate and establish counties, and then naturalized the local areas. At the same time, the fiefdoms of the common people and collateral families were arranged to Local governments should fill up the local administrative power, establish an administrative framework, spread their branches and branches, and subtly complete local assimilation.

It can be regarded as a means to deal with China, which has not yet been fully unified, and to reduce local resistance.

Of course, in order to solve the problem of ordinary people being promoted to the central government in an era when they had nothing to fight.

The imperial examination can be used if it has a new look.

Especially with the advent of paper.

Taking advantage of the time he now had, Xin Qu began to conduct joint entrance examinations based on the nameless system, unified several counties near Changping into one school district, and then launched the academic ability examination.

It was announced to the public that this was to test the abilities of the school students and facilitate the selection of capable officers as officers in the future.

But in fact, it is to explore and test the examination plan that is suitable for this era.

The purpose of taking the exam is just to see which students can be transferred to fill the vacancies among officials in the future.

In the final analysis, the selection of officials in schools is just a supplementary means.

After three rounds of tests, the only ones who can really learn are the geniuses and the clan members of the military group.

If we really want to select, the military merit system will be the strongest in the end.

However, Xin Qu was still on guard against them, so the school was established and began to recruit talented people among the naturalized people.

In the future, it may develop into a clan system in which there are no poor families in the upper class and no noble families in the lower class.

But it is much better than the original political system.

Through centralization of power and hereditary local fiefdoms, the historical problems of rising and falling combat effectiveness during the feudalization process of tribes and clans can be solved as quickly as possible.

Zixun continued to read the book, and called a few people who often did business with Yan State to inquire about the contents of these records.

Zixun discovered a serious problem.

That is the administrative system of Yan State, which highlights clear responsibilities, unified management, and neat planning.

After Xinqu had his son, he reduced the number of external actions and began to make internal adjustments.

He was the king of the Yan Kingdom and the Northern Bo of the Shang Dynasty. All the clans and tribes in the north had to listen to him. If they didn't obey, he could attack them.

Now Xin Qu has ordered that in May next year, all the chief officials from all over the country except Zhenbei General's Mansion will gather in Changping, including the local lords, and they need to bring their local development plans for the next thirty years.

In other words, before May next year, people, officials, and nobles from counties, townships, and villages in various places need to participate in discussions on production and development in their own counties, and then come up with a suitable plan and send it to the central government for the final round. discuss.

The central government will allocate a batch of recently earned money to local areas for use.

As soon as the news came out, Zixun felt incredible. In this era, it was a noble feudal system. My vassal is my vassal, not your vassal, which is also a common situation.

The Shang Dynasty was nominally the co-owner, and all places paid tribute. Everyone lived a good life without fighting each other.

As a result, Yan State took the initiative to cultivate local forces?

Overconfidence? Or is there something wrong with your head?
But Zixun also knew that this also meant that the central power of Yan State was stronger than the local government.

Otherwise, Xinqu would not have said that after the Central Committee’s discussion, the Central Committee would invest the money earned into local development.

"I'm envious! If I had such momentum in Amshang, why worry about the place being uneasy?"

Zixun sighed with emotion and said: "That's all, we will know what the situation in Yanfang is like when the time comes.

He sent someone to Changping and told Bei Boyun, "I'm coming to visit in the near future. Let him welcome me." "(End of chapter)
