There was food to eat when hungry, clothes to wear when cold, people to treat when sick, and people to teach the illiterate.
Perhaps Xiao Ruxun could only achieve this with all the efforts of his life, and he could not see any more improvements until he died. But he still believed that the hope of the future was buried in these seemingly insignificant "small" improvements.
As the emperor of Daqin, he felt that he had done a lot of things, and even wanted to do too many things. As a result, his officials had serious hair loss problems. The biggest trouble for the officials of Daqin was no longer the political struggle, but the hair loss.
But he was happy to see all this happen. He could see with his own eyes that his country was changing, gradually deviating from the original established track, and moving towards an unknown future.
The inertia of history was still heavy, and it was difficult for one person to shake it. But if tens of thousands of people changed together, they would certainly change the established track of history, push themselves into another unknown track, and continue to move forward.
Xiao Ruxun did not know what kind of new future he could bring to Daqin by doing this, but this did not prevent him from continuing to do it.
He decided not to think about the future, or about the doctrine and democratic dictatorship. Now he just wanted to do what he wanted to do, to consolidate his power, to expand the territory of Huaxia, to promote the coming of the Great Voyage, to improve the lives of ordinary people, and to make Daqin better.
That was all.
As for the future, it was not something he could predict.
The second year of Longwu passed in this way. In this year, Daqin completed the end of the Liaodong Expedition, completed the battle against Yang Yinglong's rebel army, and eliminated the disobedient Nihon Kingdom.
The three founding campaigns of Daqin consolidated the position of Xiao Qin's regime, and established the national legal rule of Daqin in a real sense.
Xiao Ruxun established his own court on the basis of the great purge in the first year of Longwu, established the unquestionable decision-making and appointment power of the emperor on personnel changes, determined the operating mechanism of the cabinet, and ensured the absolute leadership of the cabinet and state affairs.
He also strengthened the construction of rural political power on the basis of the first year of Longwu, more clearly established the construction of the Daqin government at the grass-roots level, established the system of village chief and village farmers' association president, and ensured that the central government could directly issue orders to every village without any restrictions.
In addition, he also determined the method of reorganization of the Qin Army, and for this purpose, carried out personnel changes in the army, disbanded and reorganized the army for the first time since the founding of the country, and completely returned the appointment power of officers to the central government. He also established the system of military school students to allow military school graduates to enter the army for a one-year internship.
What was more important was that Xiao Ruxun had confirmed Great Qin's national policy of opening the sea to the outside world, as well as foreign exchange and development. She had also confirmed the scale and regularity of opening the sea to the outside world. She had also redefined the amount and details of various business taxes, and she had also created a merchant law. Those who did not abide by the rules and evaded taxes would be severely punished.
Because of this, the Daqin confirmed the concept of foreign expansion. The central government, which had benefited greatly from the development of Burma and Luzon, had already begun to taste the sweetness of foreign expansion and colonization. With the Royal Merchant Fleet organized by Xiao Ruxun taking the lead, it became a trend for a large number of civilian merchant ships to go to the West Sea.
Of course, the most significant thing was the control of the locust plague and the insect plague. Xu Guangqi and Fang Congzhe were sent to be responsible for the control and management of these two major disasters, and they had achieved initial results.
Then, at the end of the second year of Longwu, the famous doctors in the newly established medical ministry jointly presented a book to Xiao Ruxun. After careful reading, Xiao Ruxun named this book "The Village Traveling Doctor's Handbook", hoping that every village traveling doctor would have a copy and travel the world to cure the world.
After that, Xiao Ruxun published a large number of the handbook and distributed it to every village, so that the literate people in the village could collectively learn it. He also recruited a group of literate people in the capital to study together, preparing to send them to Jiangnan to help Fang Congzhe after the intensive study.
The second year of Longwu ended under such an extremely busy background, and the third year of Longwu arrived.
The New Year of Longwu followed the tradition of the second year of Longwu. The Emperor held a banquet in the palace to entertain the officials and immediate family members. He also gave out red envelopes according to the degree of contribution and benefits, so that they could have a happy New Year.
The New Year was very important to the Chinese, even more so to the Emperor and the officials. It was to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, so that the New Year would have a new atmosphere.
On the basis of the second year of Longwu, there was a tea party organized by the Emperor himself in the third year of Longwu. It was held the morning before work after the end of the New Year holiday. The Emperor would invite dozens of court officials to have tea and snacks.
Generally speaking, starting from the third year of Longwu, the officials generally believed that the officials who were invited by the Emperor to attend the tea party on this day were the trusted officials of the Emperor. They were highly valued and trusted by the Emperor, and it was a special reward from the Emperor to the senior officials who performed very well last year.
Throughout the third year of Longwu, Daqin was still advancing rapidly according to the pace of the second year of Longwu. All kinds of policies began to be rolled out and implemented on a large scale. The central government continued to expand, and the central government's control over the local areas continued to strengthen. As the land reform continued to deepen, the village governments and village farmers' associations continued to be built.
In May of the third year of Longwu, after a long period of preparation, the land reform movement in the four provinces in the southwest began.
Sichuan, Yunnan, Jiangxi, and Guizhou, the early stage of the land reform movement officially began. Under the order of the central government, the Black Water secret agents who had completely infiltrated the four provinces in the southwest began to take action.
One after another, sudden actions caused strong mutual distrust and fierce disputes among the local chieftains. The conflict caused by the deliberate uneven distribution of benefits by the central government in the distribution of benefits officially exploded with this background.
Some chieftains had their mouths full of oil, while others did not get the corresponding benefits. The big chieftains were deliberately taken care of, while the small and medium-sized chieftains continued to be suppressed and attacked.
The conflict between the rich chieftains such as the An and Song families and the large number of small and medium-sized chieftains under them completely exploded.
And the local governments followed the established strategy and deliberately led the conflict by listening to them and believing them. They continued to make the matter bigger and finally triggered the irreconcilable conflict between the An and Song families.
The chieftain group headed by the An and the Song families, as well as a group of small and medium-sized chieftains, formed three forces and triggered the military conflict together.
The long-awaited situation of Xiao Ruxun finally came.
