Great Entrepreneur of the Universe

Chapter 313 New Zhao New Weather

Wang Shouliang was very busy on his first night when he entered the Qing Palace.

This kind of busyness is certainly not a day-to-day job.

But transformation!
The construction of the Qianqing Palace began in the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty and continued until the early years of Kangxi. According to historical records, it was rebuilt eight times due to fires or other disasters.

Fires are frequent, of course, because generations of emperors handled government affairs here, including the busyness at night, and it was easy to cause trouble with all kinds of lighting and fires.

When Wang Shouliang comes, he will bring about his electric age.

When A Ke arrived with a group of palace maids, what he saw was Wang Shouliang and Long Er, playing with some lanterns, street lamps, wires and cables, various electric lights, etc.

Wang Shouliang said directly to A Ke, "First of all, keep an eye on the palace maids and eunuchs and tell them not to cause trouble. By the way, once it's night, there is no need for the eunuchs to come to the palace to do things. They can rest at night."

As a modern person like him, who has traveled through several planes, he will definitely not kill the eunuch problem left over from the Ming and Qing dynasties with one shot. Those who can be used will still be used.

But we’ll talk about it later… later.

The territory he currently manages is not large, and it extends from the capital to Zhili, but he has not managed the entire Zhili, but although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

Wang Shouliang smiled and said, "What's your name?"

When Wang Shouliang walked to the palace gate, he saw a large number of people guarding outside. A middle-aged eunuch quickly led the crowd to pay homage. He claimed to be a doctor from a certain department in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the former Qing Dynasty...

But modern women's work wear, OL uniforms, casual sportswear, sports shoes, and casual cloth shoes can all be popularized from the Forbidden City.

"The cabinet system must also be determined quickly."

Just by listening to the other party's narration, I knew that the little eunuch in front of me was also a well-educated person, otherwise he would not be able to speak clearly and orderly.

The next moment Wang Shouliang smiled and said, "You are still wearing a little thin clothes. It has just been a few days after the Qingming Festival. Wear a windbreaker..."

Long Er was shocked, "..."

He is now in his fourth year as the governor of Eastern Shandong. He has petitioned for the establishment of a sea ban to support fishermen in catching fish for recuperation and people's livelihood. He has petitioned for instructions from the Eight Banners to return some of their land to the people. He has also petitioned for disaster relief in many places in eastern Shandong the year before last. , and asking for tax exemption for areas with poor grain harvests, etc.

She couldn't do it, so she had to take advantage of Ake first.

Maybe before Governor Zhou came to Beijing, he was still waiting to be summoned by Xiao Xuanye or Ao Bai. Now? ? The only option is to change people.

Akko can also have oil and water.

After training one hundred thousand Mauser 98 riflemen, it is only a matter of time before they sweep across Jiangbei.

He will not care about the specific operations of various ministries and agencies for the time being. He just orders the eunuch team and the blue-shirted guards to inquire about news and collect intelligence...

Their voices were very low, but Wang Shouliang could still hear them clearly, and he was quite speechless.

In the past half month, Obai and Xuan Ye didn't have time to summon him.

When the two women came together, as soon as Long Er said something, Akko blushed and complained, "You can also let His Highness punch the hole, but it won't break the power."

During the day today, the biggest task is to transform the Forbidden City.

When he entered the largest courtyard house, he didn't have to dress uniformly, everyone was the same.

………………

The imperial guards and imperial guards are all in modern Republic of China military uniforms, and the traditional eunuchs and palace maids' services are also changing. For example, Ake is already wearing suits, trousers, shirts and flat women's leather shoes that show off her figure. Proper modern OL outfit.

"If it doesn't work, you can find some senior palace maids and ask for some training books from former princesses before getting married. You will definitely understand."

Wang Shouliang slapped his thigh and said, "That's bad. I forgot to mention that from now on, I don't have to go to court all the time. I'll change my schedule to work in the morning."

"I heard from Master that if the power is not broken, there is also a saying that it is not broken..."

When it comes to the doctors, ministers, principals, etc. of the seven divisions and three courtyards, it is the eunuchs of various divisions and courtyards who work.

The next moment, seeing that A'ke was still in a daze, he walked over with a battery-powered tungsten filament lantern, "The new dynasty has a new atmosphere. You are first responsible for letting the palace maids change into cumbersome palace clothes, skirts, and various shoes. , replace them all with the ones I prepared for you before..."

He casually took out a windbreaker and put it on Ake. Just as the little girl left, Long Er quickly chased after her. On Wang Shouliang's first night in the courtyard, he really couldn't let him sleep naked.

This little eunuch basically told the governor's resume.

Wang Shouliang was slightly stunned, and the young eunuch quickly added some things. This governor of Zhou Yichu was a member of the Eight Banners of the Former Han Dynasty. He was a standard Han Chinese. He was born in the imperial examination. He began to go out with the army in the fifth year of Shunzhi, and before he became the governor of Ludong , is also a bachelor of civil affairs.

He has also ordered a large number of various clothing including models from the 1995 Genesis Plane, ensuring that it can be supplied to the entire Imperial City.

The morning sun shines brightly on a new day.

It wasn't until eight o'clock in the morning when Long Er limped out of the Qianqing Palace. When she reached the door, she started to circulate her Qi and regained her previous calmness.

Wang Shouliang nodded, "Okay, then I'll call you Xiao Renzi. You go and announce the governor of Zhou. I'll see him at Qianqing Palace."

At first glance, he sounds like a pretty capable minister.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is an organization that leads the Qing Dynasty and manages all eunuch groups. There are seven departments and three courts in total. However, the largest minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is usually a high-ranking Manchu and Mongolian official, such as the most famous Heshen.

Wang Shouliang wrote down their names one by one, briefly asked them to introduce themselves, and then announced that starting from today, working hours will be from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The night shift will be arranged in rotation, with one day off a week.

He also did not want to destroy the general structure of the Forbidden City. He only wanted to build electrical equipment while retaining the original flavor.

The little eunuch kowtowed excitedly, "Your Highness, this little slave's name is not worth mentioning. I dare not disturb the saint's hearing. My surname is Ren..."

The Eight Manchu and Mongolian Banners from the capital and Zhili were all evacuated, and a large number of Han Banners were waiting for Wang Shouliang to collect them. Even the Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners in Ludong were waiting to receive instructions from the little emperor or Obai to leave one after another.

After most of the eunuchs hurriedly accepted the order and left, a young eunuch who stayed behind in Qianqing Palace knelt down and reported that Zhou Yichu, the governor of Eastern Lu, had arrived in Beijing and was waiting to be summoned. He had been waiting for more than half a month.

The grass-roots team took over too quickly. It was impossible for him to find talented people with historical names to take over every department. He could only watch first and then look for more candidates to replace the existing system.

Xiao Renzi kowtowed excitedly to show his support, then stood up, bent down, ran backwards and disappeared.

Wang Shouliang, "..."

He could only say that the Qing government had imposed enslaving education for so long, and it would not be possible to correct it overnight.

When he returned to Qianqing Palace, he saw Akko who had just woken up and was looking for clothes. When she saw him, she had to salute in a panic, then waved her hands and said with a smile, "Don't panic, my grass-roots team doesn't have many rules, you can take your time." You’ll know once you get in touch.”

A Ke said in surprise, "As long as Your Highness doesn't tire of me, I'll be satisfied." Wang Shouliang said, "..."

He has worked very hard to adapt to this era.

………………

Some time later, when he met Zhou Yichu, the governor of Ludong, in the Qianqing Palace, Governor Zhou bowed and bowed as he entered. He showered all kinds of nice words to the public as if they were free of charge. He also expressed Ludong's willingness to submit to Zhao and wished His Highness King Zhao an early update. Further and so on.

Wang Shouliang took a sip of tea and interrupted, "Okay, I don't care about your previous purpose."

"I will give you three million silver dollars, a thousand-household riflemen including more than 1000 repeating rifles, and more than 100 million rounds of ammunition. I will exempt the entire Ludong from taxes for the whole year. I will not collect any excessive taxes and apportionments. Within one year, you can help me Straighten out the entire Ludong."

"The Eight Banners and the Green Camp of the former Qing and Han Dynasties were all reorganized and trained. Those who should be eliminated were eliminated. In the end, I only have 3 new troops."

"The monthly salary of the New Army soldiers is 10 silver dollars. The generals of small banners, general banners and hundreds of households at all levels have other corresponding salaries and wages. You can go to the Fifth Army Governor's Office to find out. But I will pay the soldiers and soldiers in person and will not go through Ludong. Every government office.”

"Can it be done? If it can be done, you will join the cabinet next year."

Among the various materials and memorabilia he collected, there was indeed information about Zhou Yichu, who was considered to be capable in both literature and military affairs, and was somewhat talented.

Lu Dong was willing to surrender, but now Governor Zhou was talking about surrender.

He doesn't care about so much, exempting taxes and various exorbitant taxes, handing out money, guns and bullets. If Governor Zhou can achieve the goal he said, even if he only achieves half of it, the other party will be worthy of Wang Shouliang's continued investment.

He is not afraid of Governor Zhou taking money and guns to rebel. The more advanced the rifle, the more terrible the bullet supply! The flintlock guns and paper-cased bullets he fired may be counterfeited, and the pointed metal bullets are useless to counterfeit. Mauser 98 and pointed bullets, control of logistics is the way to go.

Distributing military pay in person is a tradition from the Republic of China, where it is distributed directly to the centurion level. For 30,000 people, it is only necessary to meet with 300 centurions.

In the Qing Dynasty, the governor of a province had the power to govern the army, the people, officials, prisons, customs, water transportation, etc. The next level up was the governor, who generally took charge of two or three provinces.

As for 300 million silver dollars? It’s about the same as the previous 220 million taels of silver...isn’t it small? For a province, if it is the "prosperous age of chaffene", there will naturally not be much spread in one province.

But this was the spring of the sixth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. The total population of China's summer, south China, and north China totaled more than 20 million people. It means that Shu Province has thousands of miles of barren wasteland. In more than years, it will be filled with large-scale land reclamation at the national level.

How many people will this be spread across the whole of Ludong? ? Are there a million people?
Among the existing Han Eight Banners in the capital, if you select an elite firearms battalion with more than 98 people from 1000 households, you can become familiar with the Mauser rifle without much training. Each gun is equipped with rounds of ammunition. This is a sweeping situation. .

The well-paid and invincible elites of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, old musketeers, directly evolved into Mauser 98 repeating rifles. How rampant is it? !

Governor Zhou was stunned for a few seconds and quickly thanked him, "I obey your order."

He didn't know much, but he had been in Beijing for more than half a month, and he had heard a lot about the power of various new guns and artillery.

He is also someone who understands military affairs. Even though he was born in the imperial examination, he will defeat many opponents during the San Francisco Rebellion in the future.

Wang Shouliang said again, "The world is very big, bigger than you can imagine. Don't think that joining the cabinet is the end. In my Zhao Ting, cabinet ministers can also be awarded titles based on their merits."

"The prince's uncle is actually granted a fiefdom, and even passed down from generation to generation without being demoted. Kings with different surnames will appear one after another. I hope you can understand in the future."

The current Governor Zhou must not understand and thinks that Wang Shouliang is trying to draw a cake.

But Wang Shouliang is not just a painter, but also a baker. At worst, Wang with a different surname can be assigned to Australia, North America, South America, Europe, Africa...

There are now more than 1000 million people in China. It would be great to double that in 20 years. But will it reach 50 million in years?

As for the external enfeoffment of kings with different surnames, North America, South America and Europe, what about Wang Shouliang's descendants? Stop making trouble, it's easy for him to live to be 150 years old.

Not to mention the prince who lives for a hundred years, it is common for the grandson to live for another 50 years.

After seeing Governor Zhou off and Ake making a cup of coffee, Wang Shouliang complained, "Do you think I should meet the former Queen Mother sisters from Qianqing?"

"I'm not very greedy for the bodies of their sisters, but I want to conquer the Mongolian tribes and let them fight for me to Lake Baikal, conquer the entire Siberia, and expedition to the Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea..."

"This is difficult."

Akko smiled, "I don't understand this either. Your Highness can make the decision yourself. They are just two resentful women in the palace."

Wang Shouliang sighed lowly. He had many big cards. He could easily conquer and command the Mongolian tribes with a carrot and a stick. He followed his words and headed north, but normal cards took too long.

As time goes by, many Mongolians will be divided up by Galdan, Xiaoxuanye and Obai.

It's a bit of a waste of resources.

But even if you meet the two sisters now, how can you let them arrange to seduce the Mongolian tribes? You can't reward them with a few children of the Zhao family.

He did not give children, but Obai, Galdan, Xiaoxuanye, etc. were all integrating the Mongolian tribes through this simple marriage method.

Speaking of which, the sisters of the former Qing Empress Dowager who were widowed for many years at the age of 23, 4 or 26 are also pitiful people.

Wang Shouliang didn't mind giving people in Zhao Ting a large number of titles and kings with different surnames, including making marquises and dukes for women. He had told A Ke before that once Master Jiu Nan could persuade the Yizhou Zheng family to return to Zhao, he would directly give it to Jiu Nan. Marquis.

The problem now is that Zhao Ting's grassroots team has risen too quickly and has not established much credibility. The outside world's trust in him is still in its infancy.

If he doesn't reward the two former Qing Empress Dowager sisters for their children, then he will meet someone and say that you help me lobby the Horqin Ministry and so on. If he succeeds, he will grant you a title, and he will also support you to remarry and pass it on to the next generation.

It is estimated that no one will believe it.

This question is quite outrageous.

The next moment, Wang Shouliang rubbed Ake's long legs for a while, nodded and said, "That's it, don't worry about the sisters."

"I asked your master to go to Yizhou. I will fly the helicopter. Let's fly to Yizhou first, and then switch to the steel ship. Then I will teach you, Long Er, and some of Long Er's men how to fly the ship."

"Anyway, Yizhou has a large number of compatriots and a lot of talents."

At first, we did not expect the large number of people from the Tiandihui. That was because the other party's belief in supporting the lineage of the Tang Dynasty and supporting the third prince Zhu was too deep and firm. If they could return to Zhao in the name of Princess Ajiu, it would be the quickest way to use it. Elite army.

His helicopter is fast and has a long battery life...it just flies and lands, refueling from the portable space. It can reach the distance of less than 2,000 kilometers in a few hours.

Also, take a trip to Gan Province to see Song Changgeng's health condition. He is also a master-level traditional Chinese medicine doctor.

Before leaving, he met with Zhu Yunmen, Gu Ningren and other ministers he had personally appointed, and met with other high-ranking officials who had retained their original posts. They held a small meeting and asked everyone to treat it calmly. The Great Zhao had just been established and had just taken over the Siheyuan. He, the King of Zhao, Just run out on a business trip.

In the age of science and technology, people travel thousands of miles every day, and many civil servants and generals can no longer look at Xinzhao from the old feudal perspective.
