    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 555

    ? Jiangbei Province, the Commanding Headquarters of the Second Army of the Qinghe Army in Yunxi Prefecture.

    In the afternoon, a military and political strategy meeting was being held in the spacious and bright conference room.

    General Hussars Chen Ziang sat at the head of the long table, and the deputy army commander Li Lang, Yuan Jie and other generals sat on the right side of the long table.

    Qin An, Chief of Administration, and Chu Yue, Chief of Intelligence and Investigation, sat on the left side of the long table.

    After nearly a year of development and growth, the Second Army of the Qinghe Army has grown, and its various functional departments have tended to be perfected.

    Now the various departments of the Second Army Command of the Qinghe Army have undergone continuous adjustments and are divided into two major systems, the government affairs system and the military affairs system.

    Although the original intelligence and investigation department, munitions department, military justice department, security department, and staff department have not been renamed, they are all under the jurisdiction of the newly established military affairs department.

    The government affairs system is still in charge of the Chief Secretary for Government Affairs, Qin An. In addition to the original Department of Government Affairs, the Department of Finance and the Department of Supervision have been added.

    As the name suggests, the newly added Financial Secretary is mainly responsible for the management of taxation, money and grain, and is regarded as the chief financial steward of the Qinghe Army.

    A part of the financial power of the original munitions department was also stripped out and incorporated into the financial department.

    Now the Military Supplies Department under the Military Affairs Department doesn't care about the money anymore. They need to use the money, so they go directly to the Financial Department to make a report and apply.

    The main tasks of the Military Supplies Department are now responsible for appropriating and transporting the military salaries of various troops, preparing for the construction of arsenals, developing new weapons, and managing logistics.

    Although the Supervision Department under the government affairs department is newly established, it is also a powerful supervision department.

    The officials of the Supervision Division are responsible for supervising the administration of officials at all levels, making open and secret visits, and at the same time responsible for the assessment of officials at all levels.

    Now the Second Army of the Qinghe Army is expanding its territory because of its control, and it will become bigger and bigger in the future.

    Chen Ziang does not expect everyone to be loyal to him, nor does he expect everyone to be a good official for the people.

    ?Because there are hundreds of people, all kinds of people, there are always some black sheep, or people who speculate.

    He, Chen Ziang, doesn't have superhuman powers, so he can't keep an eye on everyone all the time.

    So now he, the general of Hussars, is mainly carrying out system construction and formulating corresponding rules to prevent people from taking advantage of loopholes.

    Under a suitable system, it is like a complex machine, and everyone is like a component, able to perform their duties, and the Second Army of the Qinghe Army can operate normally.

    The reason why the Far Eastern dynasties kept slipping into the abyss was the root cause of their institutional problems.

    Children from poor families have no way to rise, the rich and powerful families are corrupt and extravagant, and a large number of people lost their way of life due to land annexation, which eventually led to a vigorous uprising. The flaws of the system are evident.

    Now Chen Ziang is trying his best to build the system, and he also wants to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the Far Eastern Dynasty.

    He encouraged industry and commerce with the purpose of guiding the rich to shift their attention from land to commerce. As long as industry and commerce are developed, it will not only stimulate the economy, increase employment, but also prevent them from robbing the only land with the common people.

    Because sometimes relying on orders alone is not feasible. The Far Eastern Dynasty once banned the sale of land, fearing that a large amount of land would be swallowed up by the rich and powerful, and the people would have no way out.

    However, the rich and wealthy families seem to have no other investment channels other than buying a large amount of land.

    Therefore, although the Far Eastern Dynasty continued to order to stop it, the rich and powerful families always had a way to seize the land of the common people.

    Now that Chen Ziang has developed the industry and increased investment channels, the rich will naturally stop looking at the land.

    ?Because industry and commerce are more profitable, but land is dead. Once there is a natural or man-made disaster, it will even lose money.

    As long as a smart person will choose what is beneficial to him, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, this is the commonality of human beings.

    Now the various departments of the Qinghe Army perform their duties, and the advantages of the system make the Second Army of the Qinghe Army burst out with strong vitality and firepower.

    The heads of various departments were all single-handedly promoted by Chen Ziang, and they are also relatively loyal to the general Chen Ziang.

    Especially Chen Ziang hosted a banquet for them at Yunxi Restaurant last night. After eating and drinking, the relationship between them became much closer.

    However, Li Lang and the others also knew that Chen Ziang, although he was open on the wine table, could not rub the sand in his eyes when doing things.

    The heads of various departments in the meeting changed their unscrupulous behavior at the dinner table last night.??, all sat upright, looking extraordinarily serious.

    Chen Ziang also knew how to properly maintain a sense of mystery and majesty, and maintain a deterrent effect, so he also looked serious.

    "President Song, let's start with your Wanjin Mansion and report your situation."

    Now that the external situation is extremely severe, Chen Ziang also needs to have a thorough understanding of their situation.

    Therefore, the content of the meeting in the first two days was mainly to report the situation of the heads of various departments and prefectures and counties.

    Since Song Zhi took office as the Chief of the Wanjin Mansion, he has always been reserved about his career, and he dare not neglect in the slightest.

    Therefore, Song Zhi also had a thorough understanding of all aspects of Wanjin Mansion, so he stood up generously and began to report item by item.

    "After population statistics, our Wanjin Mansion now has a population of 310,000, and nine of them are farmers who live on the land."

    "In the past month, we have taken in more than 20,000 refugees. Because our Wanjin Mansion has many mountainous areas and few fertile land, most of them are responsible for land reclamation."

    "There is one copper mine and two gold mines in Wanjin Mansion, but they were damaged by the war, and re-mining requires a lot of money and manpower."

    "Wan Jin Mansion currently has a funding gap of two million yuan, because without money, many of our projects are difficult to promote."

    "There is also a huge shortage of food. Many people have no food in their homes. Now more than 50,000 people are relying on food from the government. Otherwise, they will starve to death."

    The Wanjin Mansion that Song Zhi took over was a complete mess after the war. Although they tried their best, they could only guarantee that no one would starve to death.

    Chen Ziang also understood the difficulties of their Wanjin Mansion. After all, they were poor and white, and it was really not easy to develop.

    Chen Zi'ang asked his staff to record some information about Song Zhi's Wanjin Mansion, and then asked Miao Cai from Ming'an Mansion to report.

    ?Compared to the impoverished Wanjin Mansion, the situation in Ming'an Mansion is slightly better. Now there are only more than 20,000 people receiving relief food.

    It's just that Ming'an Mansion also relies on agriculture as its main pillar now. Both the common people and the officials are all staring at the little food on the land.

    If there is another natural and man-made disaster, Ming'an Mansion may also face the problem of famine at that time.

    Although the New Deal has been implemented now, it will take at least a few months until the grain is ripe.

    Through the summarization of the prefectures and counties, Chen Ziang found that the grain stocks in the prefectures and counties can only last for half a month.

    Lack of money Chen Ziang and the others can delay the launch of some projects, but the lack of food is a very serious problem.

    Because once there is not enough to eat, the people will lose confidence in the Qinghe Army, and their resistance to implementing the New Deal will also increase, and a vicious circle will form again at that time.

    "I will solve the food problem, and I guarantee that no one will starve to death. You can just tell the people what they should do. There will definitely be food to eat, and there is no need to go out to flee famine."

    "As for the funding problem, I have ordered the Yunxi Prefecture Bank to raise funds. We will issue tens of millions of bonds soon, which will definitely solve the funding problem."

    The Yunxifu Bank was established by Chen Ziang according to the model of a bank. It not only has the function of storage, but also the function of raising funds.

    Now that the Qinghe army has established trust in the controlled area, if they issue bonds, they will definitely raise the funds they urgently need.

    As long as those squires pay for the bonds of Yunxi Bank, they only need to hold the certificates, and after one year or two years, they can get their money back and get a huge profit return.

    For those squires who have a lot of money in their hands but don't know how to do business, it is undoubtedly a simple and trouble-free way to buy the bonds of the Qinghe Army to obtain income.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
