Wen Yanbo and Ding You have been living in their hometown of Fenzhou for more than a year.

No banquets, no interactions with scholars and officials... this is filial piety.

However, major events in the country will be brought over via courier in the form of reports...

Fenzhou is not considered a border, but the distance between Daxia and Liao is not very far, so there are forbidden troops garrisoned there, and there are also guard battalions that come to Fenzhou to train troops.

Wen Yanbo has always been concerned about military training and court affairs.

"Qixian, please choose a day for you to go to Bianliang."

It is customary for the eldest son to guard the ancestral grave. Now, Ding You, the eldest son cannot run away. The second son is weak, so he has to send the third son to go out on business.

It's shabby to say the least. He Wen Yanbo was smart since he was a child, and now he is a high-ranking official, but none of his seven or eight sons are as good as the other.

Except for the sixth and seventh elders, who barely made it to the second class, the others are waiting for grace. This is also the reason why the Qingli New Deal could not be pushed forward... There are too many families like Guochao where one generation is not as good as the other.

Nowadays...some of the prince's methods can really solve some problems.

If you don't have enough IQ, even if you get an official position through kindness, you will still live a mediocre life if you are not buried by your colleagues. What's more, it will harm one party and ruin the reputation of your family.

Now, there is an additional way. His Highness the Prince's business does not have to guard this piece of land, and does not harm others. Everything can be passed down.

Children and grandchildren are incompetent, but with these livelihoods, it should be no problem for several generations to have enough food and clothing.

As for some people from Taiyuan Prefecture and Fenzhou who came to the Wen family to find out what they wanted to do... Wen Yanbo immediately pushed them out.

Are you kidding me? Do you really think that His Highness the Crown Prince is a fool, and I just let you play like this?

Starting from Wanyin Mountain, Wen Yanbo never underestimated His Highness the Crown Prince, but each time he was more shocked than the last.

"Bring your father's letter to His Highness... As for you... you'd better get in touch with Zhao Qin in the inner garden."

"We are going to Bianliang. In addition to contacting Zhao Qin, we will return immediately after finishing our affairs. Don't mess around with friends! It's Dingyou... there is no benefit in calling friends!"

In addition to the Lao Liu family, the elders in the various prefectures and counties of the country and the envoys who were far away from the court were all doing the same thing...that is, they were completely involved in the business of His Highness the Crown Prince.

The level is determined. If you don't reach the level of Xianggong, some things can't be understood clearly, and you won't know what His Highness the Crown Prince has done.

Zhao Xi is not short of money at all, he really is, otherwise he would not have renovated Gongfang City, let alone built a cement road to connect Bianliang and Gongfang City... This is a bit false.

It is true that there is no shortage of money. Let’s not talk about the profits made during the food shortage. Let’s talk about the profits from rail transportation, the payment for custom-made military equipment by the imperial court, and the sale of modified carriages to merchants... All industries are constantly filling the workshop city.

Treasury.

At this time, the treasury of Gongfang City was really much richer than the imperial court.

Given this situation, if we invest in building several new cement plants, do we still need people to invest in them?

But you just have to accept... everything comes from needs, political needs.

Zhao Xi remembered a saying from later generations: When wealth reaches a certain level, money no longer belongs to oneself, but is managed for the entire society so that it can play a greater role and create more wealth.

"Your Majesty, the Forbidden Army Xiang Army is now keen on changing their nationality. This trend has become popular among the army. If this continues, it will inevitably lead to more Xinyang Army incidents!"

This time Fu Bi asked himself to be correct.

There was nothing he could do. He didn't expect that there would be such a big dispute over the military-to-civilian transfer this time. Although it didn't turn into a quarrel in court, all kinds of methods were used in private.

There are those who fan the flames, and there are those who seek connections through doors and windows, which even leads to the military officials of the country and the dynasty engaging in personal fraud, taking advantage of the situation and making a fortune by taking advantage of the situation.

It has reached a point where it has to be managed.

In the past few years, one after another soldiers have been converted to civilians, and batch after batch of soldiers who have been converted to civilians have lived a prosperous life.

People are all good-natured. Seeing that the Xiang soldiers who used to live a life of begging are now like dogs... The soldiers of the imperial dynasty were envious, regretful, and annoyed, and they looked forward to someone who would become a civilian.

Opportunity.

If this continues, it will inevitably lead to confusion in military morale...

Fu Bi was quarreling with the officials, but he was looking at Zhao Xi... You messed with it, you have to deal with it.

No matter what the layout is, it’s time to open it up now, don’t hold it back any longer.

Even Zhao Xi was a little surprised by this situation.

How should I put it? Zhao Xi has had the idea of ​​changing the military system for a long time, but it is not the time yet.

Everything is just trying to establish trust. But it has really taken shape.

Originally, Zhao Xi's plan was not to lay aside the track, so there was the possibility of a large number of soldiers being transferred to the civilian population. At the same time, he would propose an overall increase in the treatment of the registered soldiers... Although the treatment of the imperial guards was not good.

Low, in fact, there is a big gap with civil servants of the same level, especially if you want to go up...

But now...

"Prime Minister Fu, as for the current plan, Xi believes that a rating system can be implemented in the military, and at the same time, some types of jobs can be employed by the family members of soldiers and soldiers."

"That is to say, we need to create an atmosphere in the military, and those who are positive can be given priority to become civilians. Of course, ensuring the number of soldiers of the country and the dynasty and stabilizing the morale of the military are the first needs."

"Now, in various related businesses, priority can be given to the new army...that is, the families of soldiers who are selected and trained in the guard camp."

"At the same time, it is recommended to improve the treatment of the new army. Although it cannot be equal to that of the guard battalion, it should be distinguished from the ordinary forbidden army so that the soldiers can see that it is possible to change the current situation of life even if they are not converted to civilians."

In Zhao Xi's plan, he is preparing to classify and manage the military forces of the dynasty.

For example, the number of new troops trained by the escort battalion increases year by year. When it reaches a certain number, all new troops will be classified as expeditionary troops.

For example, the soldiers who have transferred to civilian status and are currently being trained are directly classified as orbital soldiers, as well as construction soldiers, transport soldiers, mine protection soldiers, etc.

Basically, according to the classification of later generations, those who are mainly responsible for external conquests are the first category. Then the second echelon includes local armed forces, various professional and technical arms, etc.

Finally completed the change of the entire military system.

It's not that he wants to hide it while his father is in power, it's because he doesn't have the conditions to reorganize the military as a whole.

The industrial layout is only preliminary and has not yet been fully rolled out across the country.

The imperial tax revenue has only remained the same, and it has not been able to increase the treatment of most soldiers at the same time.

The matter of track laying is still in a situation where various parties are involved in the matter, and there is no unified control.

The boundaries between civil and military affairs are still clearly defined, and the matter of civil servants serving in the military... is not even mentioned at this time.

The key is that the current situation of those military generals and soldiers relying on empty quotas to eat and drink has not yet been effectively solved...

Many of them involve some fundamental institutional issues of the country and the DPRK.

Although Zhao Xi has now attracted a large number of people, the industrial benefits are not yet comparable to the income from the fields.

He is waiting for Wang Jiefu who has been famous for thirty years!

Zhao Xi sometimes feels that he is quite dishonest... He knows that he is waiting for someone to take the blame.

Alas... The scholar-official class must have such a person, and such a person must be found among the scholar-officials.
