Chapter 31 [Dynasty Loopholes]

With the advent of cement, the Xinggu Dynasty began to use cement to rebuild roads on a large scale.

The city walls that were originally used to resist ferocious beasts were torn down, and the city began to expand outward.

Anno 368.

The royal capital was completely renovated.

Accompanied by the Imperial Guards and cabinet ministers, Yang Yu walked on the spacious concrete street with a smile in his eyes.

"Not bad."

Yang Yu looked at the Minister of Finance with admiration and said, "My dear, I have taken your deeds to heart. You will definitely leave a mark in history."

"I dare not take credit for it. This is the result of the joint efforts of the ancient people of our planet." Finance Minister Li Bing was smart. He knew that the king did not like flatterers and did not dare to take the credit for himself. He simply distributed the credit to the people of the dynasty.

"Hahaha~"

Yang Yu laughed and said, "Next, the central government will have a lot of responsibilities. Issues such as road planning and public security will all require you to plan."

"Road planning, this matter should be managed by the court security."

"A portion of the public security forces will be allocated to manage the empire's transportation."

“Roads should be divided into pedestrian and carriage ways to avoid unnecessary casualties.”

Listening to the king's words, the Minister of Public Security Bai Yu said respectfully: "I will definitely not let the king and the court down..."

Yang Yu nodded slightly and pointed at the surrounding streets. "The streets should be kept clean. It is best not to have vendors selling goods on the streets. It would be a good idea to transform the stores around the streets into shops. We should find street cleaners every day to clean the streets and keep them clean and tidy to avoid epidemics."

"For the security of the court, it is best to arrange security soldiers to guard the cross streets, and put people first. The safety of personnel is the top priority."

"No matter who it is, no matter how strong his family background is, as long as he violates the laws of the court, he should be dealt with. If it is collusion between officials and businessmen to oppress the poor people, I guarantee that you will die miserably, and it is very likely that the entire clan will be implicated, or even nine clans."

"Nine tribes. Perhaps you don't know which tribes they are. I will tell you. There are four tribes from the father's side, three tribes from the mother's side, and two tribes from the wife's side, a total of nine tribes."

The words fell.

Everyone gasped, and sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Ruthless, too ruthless.

same.

The concept of nine clans also appeared for the first time in the Xinggu Dynasty.

The historian next to him was trembling as he recorded what the king said.

"You may be thinking that if I arrange for my family to leave in advance, the king will not be able to kill all of my nine clans."

"When I was going to kill your entire clan, you hadn't even received the news yet. You might be the only one left in your clan."

Yang Yu said seriously: "Don't have any fluke mentality here with me."

"promise."

Many ministers shuddered inwardly, but they also took out their notebooks and began to write down what the king said.

These are all policy changes, which are of great inspiration to them.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

at this time.

Yang Yu, who was inspecting the newly built streets and houses, was suddenly attracted by a call.

Turn around and look.

I saw a group of people wearing simple clothes, with sturdy build and the temperament of migrant workers, kneeling in front of the blockade of the Guards, and kowtowed in their direction.

Seeing this, Yang Yu walked over curiously.

"Everyone, a man's knees are made of gold. He should kneel to heaven, earth, and his parents. Why do you have to do this? Get up quickly."

Yang Yu came up to the dozen or so people, frowned, and spoke in a deep voice.

To know.

The highest etiquette of the Xinggu Dynasty is to kneel on one knee.

Kneeling on both knees is when an elderly person in the family passes away and filial sons and daughters ask the neighbors for help without entering the house to kneel down, or to say goodbye to parents, etc.

Kneeling on one knee also has its own rules. The right hand is placed in front of the chest, the right knee touches the ground, the left leg is bent in a squatting position, and the head is lowered to kneel on the ground. This is the highest etiquette for the king. The dragon guards and other beings stood nervously beside the king, fearing that this group of people would harm the king.

"Your Majesty, we, the common people, are here to see Your Majesty. We hope Your Majesty will make the decision for us, Your Majesty."

A farmer who looked like the leader said with tears in his eyes.

"Quack."

Suddenly.

The Minister of Public Security felt a pang in his heart.

Call the shots?

Does that mean that there was something wrong with the public security of his court? Did he fail to meet the demands of the people?
In addition to people's livelihood issues, all civil and criminal issues in the world are under their public security management.

"Kings……"

The Minister of Public Security had a dry mouth and swallowed dryly.

In this regard.

Yang Yu turned his head and glanced coldly at the Minister of Public Security.

Seeing the king's gaze, the Minister of Public Security immediately chose to shut up and wait for the people of the Xinggu Dynasty to speak.

"Come slowly, I will make the decision for you."

Yang Yu looked at the commoner with a simple expression on his face with a smile, reached out and grasped his hand, and spoke in a friendly manner.

moment.

The farmer was flattered and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, we have built roads and houses for the court, but we have not received any wages. The New Year is coming soon, but we have no money to go home and celebrate the New Year with our parents, wives and children. I heard that Your Majesty will inspect the roads and houses, so we have no choice but to do this."

The words fell.

The Minister of Public Security finally let go of the worry that had been weighing on his mind.

It turns out that this has nothing to do with the public security of their court.

This scared him.

To know.

He had just promised that it would take less than a cup of tea. If something really went wrong, he might become the first person to be exterminated along with his entire clan.

Finance Minister: “…”

You were enjoying your melon, but unexpectedly, you ended up eating yourself?

What's going on?

"Your Majesty, the court finance department has already distributed the money for building roads and houses a month ago."

"I even gave these people an extra 100 coins so that they can celebrate the New Year."

In an instant, the Chancellor of Finance felt his scalp tingling, his whole body shaking like a sieve, and he spoke tremblingly.

damn it.

Who wants to get me out of office?

He originally had a chance to be re-elected as Chancellor of the Exchequer, but with this happening, it may not be his turn next year.

"Haha~"

Yang Yu laughed. He didn't expect that there would still be a loophole after all.

"Dragon Guard."

Yang Yu let go of the hand of the commoner and turned to look at the dragon guardian. The smile on his face disappeared instantly and he said coldly, "I will wait for the answer here for one stick of incense."

"promise."

Upon receiving the order from the king, Huo Long immediately glared at the Minister of Finance and hurried to deal with the task assigned to him by the king.

Yang Yu did not even look at the ministers. Instead, he fixed his eyes on the farmers and said, "You guys just wait here. I will give you an answer after one stick of incense."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."
