Chapter 218.2
Following that, Lin Beifan generously rewarded the meritorious officials.
Heshens official rank was already high enough, and his nobility rank was also high, so Lin Beifan mainly rewarded him with some divine skills and divine elixirs and also gave him a divine weapon, showing the emperors generosity.
Li Linfu was given a noble title.
Becoming the second person in the civil official system to be ennobled made him so happy that he was completely disoriented.
Cao Cao was promoted a rank higher in the Ministry of War.
After the rewards, the officials joyfully exclaimed, Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!
Then, the tasks for the coming year were assigned.
Minister He, continue to push the work under your supervision next year. Let our Great Xia grow more food, build more houses, mine more minerals, weave more fabrics, and build more roads!
Yes, Your Majesty! Heshen accepted the order.
Minister Cao, continue conscription next year, recruit another 2 million, and let the national military strength reach 6 million! At the same time, continue to preside over the military academy, hold another martial examination, and cultivate more pillars of the state!
Yes, Your Majesty! Cao Cao accepted the order.
Minister Li, continue to advance the work of basic education next year! Also, hold another imperial examination to select and employ the wise and talented!
Yes, Your Majesty! Li Linfu accepted the order.
This much-anticipated court meeting finally came to a successful conclusion.
Then, the main content of the court meeting was organized by court officials and then proclaimed to the world.
These astonishing figures made everyones scalp tingle.
This transcript unequivocally demonstrates that Great Xia is thriving more and more each day, rapidly catching up to the Empire!
Only when the nation prospers can the peoples lives be secure!
The citizens are all rejoicing and bursting with pride!
Amazing, my country!
When other nations see this report, they are speechless for a long time, their eyes filled with envy.
Great Xia is getting stronger and stronger!
At this rate, they would surely become an Empire in less than two years!
Another powerful country is on the rise!
Their jealousy and envy are futile, as they still have the mess of the ice disaster to clean up.
A couple of days pass, and the New Year approaches.
Your Majesty, what is this? Liu Wanqing asks curiously.
These are New Years gifts for you, I hope you will accept them with a smile! Lin Beifan says with a smile.
Your Majesty, theres no need for this. We have no worries about food and clothing here, and if we need anything, we will purchase it ourselves. Theres no need to trouble yourself! Liu Wanqing repeatedly waved her hands.
No, you must accept this gift!
Lin Beifan opened one of the boxes and said, This is a hundred-year-old ginseng, which has absorbed the essence of the sun and moon over the years. It can strengthen the bodys foundation, regulate qi and blood, nourish yin, and support the kidneys!
Lin Beifan opened the second box.
This is a hundred-year-old Jade Ganoderma, which has absorbed the essence of the earth over the years and can replenish qi and calm the spirit!
Lin Beifan then opened the third box.
This is a hundred-year-old
Liu Wanqing and her daughter were both shocked and awed.
Each of these medicinal herbs was of a hundred-year grade, priceless in the market, and could be considered a great medicine by itself!
Even though they were from a noble family specializing in medicine, they couldnt produce such an abundance of herbs like this!
How did His Majesty have so many?
And to think he was so generous as to give them away as gifts!
Although these medicines were precious, they were not a problem for Lin Beifan.
Because the Empire Sandbox allowed him to monitor the entire country, he was well aware of any medicinal herbs domestically, and he could easily obtain them with a flick of his fingers.
These medicines were valuable only when given to someone who understood their worth.
Thank you, Your Majesty. I will accept them with gratitude, Liu Wanqing said, unable to refuse because she truly needed them.
With these medicinal herbs, she could concoct better pills to treat her mothers illness.
After accepting the New Years gifts, Liu Wanqings mother glanced at Lin Beifan and her daughter, then smiled secretly, Ill go to the pharmacy now. You young people can take your time to chat!
Lin Beifan, Liu Wanqing: Huh???
