Lu Ming rarely entered a relatively leisurely period.
Of course, this is only a relative term. After all, I used to be busy almost 24 hours a day, but now I can only work 20 hours, and it is in an orderly manner, without the busy and exhausted feeling before.
His Majesty the King has an eight-hour workday, Brigadier General Bit of the Western Region has a six-hour workday, the Regent of Japan has a three-hour workday, and Chief Anxi has a three-hour workday.
Moreover, Sunday can finally be used as a day off.
…
Today is a day off. Originally, Lu Ming had made an appointment with Xiao Meizhen to watch a movie.
Unexpectedly, it was Kim Mi-yeon who came.
The entire top floor of Shengjing Palace was originally called "Wolong Palace". After Lu Ming became the ruler of the country, it is now called "Qianning Palace".
With an area of more than 5,000 square meters, it is resplendent and resplendent, just like entering an imperial palace in ancient times. Of course, there are also many modern factors. For example, Lu Mingzai’s cinema today, but the inside has been transformed into a traditional style, with nine wide and soft walls. It is very comfortable to sit or lie down.
The layout of the rootai is that the middle one is the largest, and the other eight are surrounding it, which are eight small rootai. It is no problem to seat seven or eight people in each rootao, which can satisfy the grand occasion of the King of Han and his concubines watching a movie together.
However, this only exists in theory. Lu Ming can only think about that kind of absurd life.
Lu Ming sat in the middle of the widest room, while Jin Meiyan stood far to the side. The distance between them was four or five meters.
Seeing Jin Miyan's frightened look, she mentioned that her younger sister was in the laboratory, so he called her and asked her to come watch a movie with him.
Lu Ming didn't say anything else, and Jin Meiyan breathed a sigh of relief. She thought the end of the world was coming when she received the call from her sister, and was she afraid that she would be tortured as soon as she entered the palace? His Majesty the King loves his sister, and it doesn't matter if she makes mistakes. , but definitely punish yourself.
Jin Miyan almost shed tears when she made the report with trepidation.
I heard that there was castration. I didn’t know what it was, but it was scary to think about it.
"Should we just stop watching?" Lu Ming coughed. Although it's unfair, I do feel that watching a movie with this guy is really boring.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Jin Meiyan said softly.
"By the way, how is the environment here? Are you still used to living there?" Lu Ming asked.
Kim Mi-yeon lives in the "Libin Garden" on the 16th floor, which is a complex luxury suite with an area of more than 500 square meters.
However, it is much worse than the "Hui Feiyuan" on the 17th floor of Meizhen. This girl, Miyan, has had a very good living environment in recent years. I wonder if moving to the palace has lowered her living standards.
Jin Meiyan hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Get used to it, Your Majesty..." Life here is so comfortable, it's like the world she dreamed of before, with clothes on hand, food on hand, and mouth to open. There are a few very sensible little palace maids who are respectful. Serve yourself respectfully and call me "Empress". When I was a child, I imagined such a life when I was watching costume dramas and daydreaming.
Sometimes, I really want to sleep on that soft princess bed forever.
Seeing her hesitation in answering, Lu Ming thought he might have misunderstood. He frowned and said, "I told the Ministry of Internal Affairs to give you absolute freedom. They didn't restrict you, right?"
Jin Meiyan shook her head: "No, no..." and added, "Your Majesty."
Lu Ming was helpless, "Let's use the past title."
Ah? Jin Meiyan was a little confused, but then she understood, "Your Majesty, do you want me to call you by the name I used to call you, uncle?"
Lu Ming nodded: "Although I am less than ten years older than you, in my eyes, you are just like the child I met back then. Your sister, why don't you still call me Brother Qianxing?" He sighed in his heart and listened.
What a little girl she is, your Majesty's. She gets a headache every time she hears it.
"Yes, Your Majesty... uncle..." Jin Meiyan said "uncle" and felt the fear in her heart fade a little.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Well, don't be restrained, just be the same as before." He felt helpless. If he calls it this way, if the history books in the future are exaggerated, he will just marry his former niece as a concubine, add fuel to the fire, and he will become a concubine.
One of the most absurd emperors.
Lu Ming stood up and said, "Go and play." Suddenly he remembered something and said, "By the way, the families of your friends are at least middle class, and some are considered wealthy. If you have time, their families are all
What kind of status are you in and how rich are you? Can you help me count them?"
Although Jin Meiyan was puzzled, she hurriedly said: "Okay, uncle."
Lu Ming nodded slightly: "Go ahead."
"Section Chief Wang" is mainly busy with this right now, which is observing the channels for class advancement.
The most important thing for a developing society is the emergence and expansion of the middle class.
The channels through which the middle class is created are very important and represent the development potential of this society.
The most fearful thing is that the middle class is created by being related to the power class. In fact, the civil service class has become the most stable channel to enter the middle class. Most other channels have been closed. Only the most emerging industries will have new channels.
, because the power class is temporarily unable to supervise, fish that slip through the net appear, and cakes that are distributed without power appear, then this society is a bit scary.
Thousands of years of history in previous lives told Lu Ming that if smart people all think that studying hard and taking exams to become an official is the brightest path, instead of entering various industries and industries, then this society will only stagnate.
…
The "Wang's House" in Anxi has now been relocated to a newly built apartment building, two floors of which belong to the "Wang's House".
An eight-story elevator apartment building with a three-bedroom structure and eight residences on each floor, the "Wang House" has a total of sixteen residences.
This is a typical middle-class apartment building. The "Wang House" occupies the top and seventh floors.
At this time in the evening, Lu Ming was having a barbecue with another family in the community park.
Lu Ming is still the section chief of the household registration department, but he has changed to a different branch.
The people having a barbecue with Lu Ming were the family of the traffic police section chief of the new branch. They have a beautiful wife, a son and a daughter, and they live a happy life.
Two children were laughing and playing on the lawn. On the barbecue here, Chief Du patiently turned the meat skewers, and the meat was "sizzling" and exuding fragrance.
Bai Narcissus was joking and chatting with the beautiful section chief's wife.
Both of them are "full-time housewives" and seem to have a lot in common.
Sitting next to Section Chief Du, Lu Ming opened a can of beer out of boredom.
He wears sunglasses, but he is actually in his own form, which is basically the same after changing the precinct.
"Dayong, when are you going to have a baby?" Section Chief Du asked with a smile.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Lao Du, I heard that the city council approved a new fiscal budget, including a new plan for the organizational reform of the city hall? According to this plan, the number of civil servants in the city will increase by almost a quarter."
"Oh, you worry about this every day. Wouldn't it be nice to have more people to work with? Tell me, whether you or I, are there no shortage of people under your command?" Section Chief Du was not surprised and said again: "
It just so happens that I have a nephew who has nothing to do, so this time it's a worry for me."
Lu Ming nodded.
Anxi belongs to the original Ansan Province, which was originally the poorest province in the northern region. However, Anxi is where the Highway Department is located. The basic model of Anshan Province is to gather the efforts of all roads to build the city. The rural areas are extremely poor, and the highway department city is deformed.
bustling.
Nowadays, in the new society, municipal finances are gradually becoming richer than before, but in fact, they are still changing the soup without changing the medicine.
The originally extremely streamlined civil servant team was expanded almost every year, and this year it was even worse, with a major expansion.
"Darcissus." Lu Ming waved to the white narcissus.
Bai Narcissus hurriedly walked closer, and Lu Ming whispered: "Sisters of the Kan family, join me for supper today."
Bai Narcissus nodded: "Yes."
Over there, Section Chief Du looked at this scene with envy. Such a beautiful lady was so stunning at first sight, but now she becomes more and more charming the more she looks at her. Her noble and clean temperament is hard to describe. Compared with his wife, she is simply...
A woman with a yellow face is always obedient. I don’t even know how Wang Dayong got his good fortune.
Lu Ming was thinking about one thing.
The Kan sisters are both writers. Although their works have not sold much, they have taken on the cloak of writers and critics. They are also from local prominent families, so both sisters have become local MPs and one is a Dominion MP.
, one is a city councilor.
Nowadays, in each territory of the former Ansan Province, members of parliament are also elected, but citizens cannot freely stand for election and must obtain the right to nominate.
The power of nomination for members of the Dominion Parliament rests with the Qualifications Committee of the Dominion Members of His Majesty's Privy Council.
For councilors at the city, county and town levels, the right to nominate lies with the Local Electoral Committee of the Dominion Assembly.
Perhaps, for many things, it’s time to take a step further.
