Before convening the relevant yamen to draft the charter, Su Song first communicated with the cabinet ministers and even with the counselors of the Pavilion of Lao Yuan.
The situation will be clear and the future will be explained clearly. In this relatively enlightened era, the ministers and workers can still figure it out. As for whether they all also want to cultivate talents for their own families, it is hard to say.
However, even if the courtiers are thinking about cultivating talents for their own families, Zhao Xi is happy to hear it.
One flower blooming alone is not spring, but a hundred flowers blooming together fill the garden. If we want the Song Dynasty to be prosperous for a long time, it is not enough to have a workshop city alone.
Courtiers, nobles, craftsmen, common people...the entire innovative concept took shape in all strata of the entire country, and was the foundation for the continuation of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Xi agrees with the theory of getting rich first and then getting rich to a certain extent, and the Guochao has also confirmed the correctness of this point in recent years.
Indeed, due to their participation in the various industries founded by Zhao Xi, a large number of courtiers and nobles in the dynasty were wealthy, and they did not even care about the court salary. This also widened the gap between the rich and the poor to a certain extent... The original dynasty's
The gap between rich and poor is not small either.
At the same time, because of the promotion of imperial industry in all state capitals, people who originally depended on the weather have been given the opportunity to do idle work and increased their income.
Because of this, the originally prosperous trade and service industries have achieved considerable development, which has also increased the income of the people.
This is a system. Although Zhao Xi cannot describe it accurately, he can understand it and implement it step by step in the country and dynasty.
By this time, Zhao Xi had basically completed the rectification of the country and put the Song Dynasty on a benign track. As long as it didn't mess around, it would have the potential to survive for a long time.
Some cognitions need to sprout slowly. Zhao Xi has no intention of doing lofty things, nor will he unrealistically promote certain ideas of future generations.
What is suitable is the best.
When Zhao Xi is free now, what he likes to read the most is the advertisements in the prefecture-level newspapers... There is no need for guidance, things have their own laws.
The advertising columns in newspapers from various places represent the material richness of the country and reflect the diversity of the country's industries.
Not only advertisements, the local state capital's arrival newspaper even had a special section to publish some interesting stories, which also allowed Zhao Xi to see this dynasty from another angle.
To be honest, Zhao Xi is very satisfied with the development of the country at this time in all aspects, including governance, military, culture, science and technology, education, people's livelihood, etc.
But after many years of governance, we can finally see some results...
Of course, Zhao Xi is not inflated, and there is no comparison with later generations. But compared to the early years, today's dynasty can be said to be turned upside down.
This is also the reason why I, the king, have such high prestige... ~ I am a bit boastful.
Hey...~A craftsman who has worked for the Lu family in Xiongzhou for three years was accused of having an affair with the family master's concubine...
As in ancient and modern times, this kind of story of grudges and hatred always makes people passionate, and it is also an enduring method in the revenge industry.
Publishing some stories about wealthy officials and their families always attracts attention. Common people like to read it, and similar people also like to hear about it.
Zhao Xi was also free, so he really read it in detail.
It turned out that this craftsman was a refugee. To put it bluntly, he was originally from Yanyun.
Fleeing south alone three years ago...it was not an organized trafficking operation. This requires some ability.
The craftsman's miserable experience made the Lu family feel pity and took him in.
The craftsman is also somewhat capable. After working for the Lu family, he worked in the Lu family's glass workshop. In three years, he managed to become a master craftsman.
A master craftsman from a local or state capital's workshop could probably find a good job even in the workshop city.
The Lu family also valued this person very much. They registered their household registration at the beginning of this year and even gave this craftsman the surname Lu... almost treating him as a member of the family.
Unexpectedly, now that things have happened, the craftsman is having an affair with the master's concubine...
The story is like this, and the description is called a euphemism...
Zhao Xi saw something fishy.
"Zhongzheng, send someone to investigate this matter."
Zhao Xi clicked on the Xiongzhou Arrival News article.
Fugitive, three years, and prosecution. These three elements allowed Zhao Xi to see the possible story behind this.
"Xiongzhou...who is in charge of the Ansu Army?"
It is impossible for Zhao Xi to remember all the generals stationed in the country, and he even said that he would not always remember even the generals he paid attention to.
Zhao Xi only needs to grasp the term changes of the garrison troops in the large area.
Due to the formation of the rail transit network, there is always room for movement among three different levels of defense: Guochao-Bianliang, Border Defense, and South Border.
Zhao Xi only needs to grasp the basis of preventing the separation of vassal towns in the previous dynasty, and does not need to remember all the generals.
"Going back to the official house, the Ansu Army is led by General Wang Shunchen..."
The king of kings couldn't remember it either, so he looked through the memorials left in the Qinzheng Hall.
"Wang Shunchen... well, you should send someone to investigate this matter first."
The current Hebei Province should have two leading border defense forces, the Old Guard Battalion and the Guards Battalion... The imperial court has always intentionally separated the Old Guard Battalion and the Guards Battalion.
Hebei Province and Northwest China both sent generals with different backgrounds to each other.
In fact, it is of no use. They are considered to be members of the official family and are respected by the official family.
However, regarding the system, Zhao Xi still agreed with the court's approach.
Besides, even if they are from the same sect, there is still a difference between closeness and distance. The reason why the court arranged this arrangement is to be wary.
It doesn't matter if Zhao Xi is in office now, this system should still be effective in the future.
The Imperial City Division's investigation was very fast, and within three to five days, the secret report came.
It turned out to be what Zhao Xi thought.
It’s not that he stole a concubine, but that the craftsman was planning to escape after being registered by the Lu family...
"Reporting to the officials, when I arranged to investigate the Xiongzhou matter, I also asked Beiliao to investigate."
"According to news from Xiongzhou, this person is from Tang County. He fled south because of a dispute with the local Han army Lin Ya, which resulted in his family being wiped out."
"But the investigation report from Tang County did not find out that there was any disaster that destroyed the family in Tang County three years ago."
"It may also be a matter in the countryside. The Imperial City Division has not been able to reach the countryside in Beiliao, and I dare not conclude that there is no such thing. However, I think that the original identity of this craftsman is fabricated..."
"So, I have arranged for the scouts in the north to make inquiries."
The official family is different. You can see the hidden story behind it from such small things.
"What's going on in Xiongzhou?"
"Ah... Well, according to the investigation, it was found that the craftsman was under surveillance by the Lu family and was brought back when he escaped. However, he had already become a household registration in the Song Dynasty. He could not be punished for escaping from the master's family, so he fabricated the facts."
"The report of the arrival was published, but Xiongzhou never decided the case and just detained the craftsman. The report of the arrival in Xiongzhou included members of the Lu family..."
