Chapter 240

In the hall.

After Qin Huan announced his military innovation plan, the generals on the right were very happy. After all, there were bound to be many more generals, but the literati on the left frowned.

In the past, the Chinese army was moving around and mixed up with men and women. But now that it has a foothold, the army is still mixed with a large number of women soldiers and women, which is somewhat inappropriate.

Qian bin, who was the first to take refuge in the army, saw that everyone winked frequently, so he had to stand up and give a fist: "King Hua, there was a lack of literati in the army in the past. It was helpless to use women to manage money and food, but at this time, there were hundreds of famous scholars in our army, and then let those ladies stay in the army... Besides, women have been the most taboo in the army since ancient times, Especially those women are mostly widows, which is really... "

"It's really unlucky, isn't it?" Qin Huan saw that he hesitated for a long time and said narrowed.

"Huawang Yingming!"

All the scribes held their fists together, and the voice was loud.

Liu and Li's wives lowered their heads.

"That's strange. Since the beginning of our Chinese army, there have been widows in the army, but they have won every battle and never lost. In contrast, the Ming army has been defeated repeatedly without widowed women. What's the matter? Is the old man blind?"

"This... This..."

Everyone looked at each other and was speechless.

"Well, the king has decided on this matter. There's no need to say any more." Qin Huan waved his hand impatiently when he saw that they couldn't fart for a long time.

Everyone had to shut up. After all, the little king was moody and killed people like a chicken.

As soon as Qian bin stepped down, Li Yan lined up and said, "King Hua, if his name is not correct since ancient times, his words are not good. Therefore, my subordinates implore King Hua to officially open his house and become king, issue a call for clarification, and make an edict to the world!"

"Please officially call the king!"

Qian bin was annoyed and robbed by him. He hurriedly responded to Tao. All the literati also stood up and hugged each other.

Seeing this, the generals on one side were not stupid. They quickly stood up and joined the fun. Especially the red warbler was the most happy. He even knelt on one knee. When others saw it, they had to kneel one after another.

"Well, Mr. Li is right. It's up to you. It's still called Hua Wang. The call should be more beautiful!"

Qin Huan nodded and said that there were smart people at last. After all, he was also a shameful man. It seems that his ministers took the initiative to put forward this kind of thing.

In fact, he wanted to be king in Kaifeng, but it was unlucky to think that he would run away as soon as he became king, so he held back.

Yes, as a Chinese, King Qin is also superstitious. After all, he is evil when he crosses over.

"Yes!"

"See you, king."

Li Yan hurriedly gave his head a big gift.

Although a group of scholars followed suit, they said in their hearts, King Hua is too anxious. At least it should be postponed once or twice?

Qin Huan didn't care what people thought. In addition to the title and making weapons and equipment, he had to study it again. For the time being, it was just like this, so he began to announce the affairs of government affairs again.

First of all, if you have become a king, you have to have corresponding official positions, yamen, and the grade of civil servants. The system of the Ming Dynasty has been quite perfect and can basically be used.

Qian bin, as the first literati to take refuge, became the first civil servant without accident.

A prime minister's Yamen was established, with Qian bin as prime minister and minister, taking charge of government affairs and holding the official title of first grade.

The prime minister's Yamen temporarily governs seven departments: the Ministry of officials, the Ministry of household, the Ministry of punishment, the Ministry of work, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of agriculture and the Ministry of taxation.

Each department also has one minister, left and right waiters, ranging from the second grade to the sixth grade.

The crowd was immediately stunned.

No military headquarters is expected. After all, although the little king is small, he is like a monkey spirit. He would rather let those widows go to the army than let them take charge of money and food. Therefore, I know that military power is difficult to get involved in a short time.

More than three departments can guess what they do from the literal explanation, but how can they do without the etiquette department?

"Your Majesty, is there a etiquette Department missing? Moreover, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of agriculture and the Ministry of taxation have not existed since ancient times! "

Qian Bin said carefully, it's so exciting in his heart!

No matter whether it is called the prime minister, minister or prime minister, anyway, as long as he takes charge of government affairs, King Qin can call whatever he wants, and no one will care.

"There is no need to set up the Ministry of rites for the time being. I have my own plan. I will talk about it later. As for the Ministry of Commerce, as the name suggests, it is naturally in charge of business. The Ministry of agriculture is responsible for measuring land, counting population and farming. Isn't the Ministry of Taxation simple? Of course, taxes are collected. Do you think you don't have to collect taxes? No salary? The army doesn't want pay. Doesn't the king have to raise a princess to repair the palace? "

Qin Huan did not care about the people's expressions, but continued: "the urgent task of the premier's Yamen is to settle the millions of people, divide the land and resume production as soon as possible..."

Qin Huan planned to pick out all the bachelors who had no wives and specialize in construction in the future, which would be under the unified management of the Ministry of work.

For those with wives, children and parents, households are the basic units. Men grant five mu of land, women three mu of land and old people and children two mu of land.

Five households are one five, one cow or mule or horse is given, ten five is one village, ten villages are one town, and ten towns are one county.

In this way, there are 50 households in a village, 500 households in a town and 5000 households in a county. Together with the people in the city, there are only twenty or thirty thousand.

Among them, the five chiefs of each county and the village chiefs of each village are selected by the villagers themselves. The town heads and county magistrates are appointed by the imperial court. In addition, there are 500 troops stationed in each county, which are led by the county Wei, who is responsible for the public security of each county.

He plans to retire those old veterans and elite soldiers, take his mother-in-law and concubines to serve as county captains in all counties, and the soldiers and horses will be recruited and trained by the General Staff Department at that time, and then assigned to all counties.

"Your Majesty, our Chinese army now has more than three million landless people, plus hundreds of thousands of local people in Nanyang Prefecture. Even if we remove the single men without families, I'm afraid there are not so many landless places to distribute!"

"Yes! One person has an average of three mu and tens of millions of mu. How can there be so much land? "

Qian bin and all the literati were embarrassed. In their view, the large houses without owners in Nanyang Prefecture should be distributed to meritorious soldiers and them, and then they should hand them over to the people to rent.

Since ancient times, this has been the case after the change of dynasties. Unless the population is really withered and there are too many wastelands, the meritorious officials will give them to the people after they reward them.

"The whole Nanyang Basin plus Ruzhou has more than 10 million mu of land. Not to mention three mu for one person, four mu for one person is enough."

Qin Huan waved his hand and said that Henan had hundreds of millions of mu of cultivated land in previous generations. The area of one mu in the Ming Dynasty was not much different from that in previous generations. According to the degree of development of Henan, he estimated that there are at least 60 or 70 million mu now. As one of the four major governments, Nanyang didn't even have 10 million mu of land?

There is no such land. There are so many heroes in history. Why should they be driven into the Central Plains? Isn't there a lot of people and places?

"Ah!"

Qian bin and dozens of literati all changed their faces. The secret way was bad. Qian bin tried to say uneasily, "but king, those lands are owned!"

"Ha ha!"

Qin Huan looked up to the sky and laughed. Then he looked at them like a fool and said coldly, "haven't you heard that the king's land, the land's shore, and the king's officials in the world?

Nanyang has been beaten down by Lao Tzu. Naturally, all the land belongs to Lao Tzu. Even the lives of those big families belong to Lao Tzu. If anyone refuses, let him also rebel against Lao Tzu. "

Qin Huan not only wanted to confiscate all the surplus concubines and servants, but also all their land. Similarly, he would not distribute the land to civil servants, military generals and ordinary soldiers.
