Chapter 679 Road Network
In the morning, I went to the castle town of Kishitaya Castle for a private visit, and arrested Miki and Oki, the two troublemakers, back to the city to put them under house arrest. On the afternoon of that day, Masara was caught in busy territory again.
The next morning, a light wind blew outside, and even drizzled, and the weather seemed gloomy. It was just dawn, but Masayoshi dragged down his body, which had been exhausted all night last night, and began to dress under the maid's service. Before leaving the bedroom, he secretly glanced at Juji, who was still hiding in the quilt and couldn't sleep. Masayoshi smiled happily. The two of them fought to the death last night. It was probably that Juji was overworked, so she couldn't get up for a while today.
After breakfast, Zhengliang began to go to the mountains near Anshan City under the escort of everyone. Today he was going to inspect various workshops in the mountains.
Riding from the gate of Anyueshan City for a hundred miles, the one in front of Zhengliang was a marching avenue that could be used for ten war horses to walk side by side. The avenue was mainly paved with cement raw materials unique to the Luo family. Although it was not as smooth as later generations, there were even many pebbles mixed in the mud during the mud making process, but compared with other famous domestic mud roads, it was much better.
At this time, the marching avenues in Feiqian and Zhuhou Kingdom, which were first occupied by the Luo family, were already quite developed, and they were all made of these inferior cement materials. The Feiqian and Zhuhou Kingdom had almost completed the laying of the marching avenues in most of the country. It is expected that by the end of the next year, a well-connected marching avenues will be formed there. Only the newly occupied marching avenues and Fenghou Kingdom. Due to the fact that the Luo family did not have much grain reserves at this time, the laying of the marching avenues will be carried out at least after the autumn harvest this year.
The construction of a well-connected marching avenue system in the Luo Family Territory. Military, it is conducive to the rapid movement of the Luo Family Army and the transportation of logistics materials, reducing the consumption caused by road reasons on the way, and allowing Daming's government orders to be quickly transmitted to every corner of the territory.
In terms of intelligence, it is conducive to the acceleration of the intelligence cabinet's intelligence transmission speed, and it is also conducive to the intelligence cabinet's surveillance of various areas of the territory. It also avoids the self-construction of the territorial system of the wealthy and retainers in various places due to blockage of roads, which hinders the rule of the Luo family.
In terms of economy, it is conducive to the movement and exchange of local territorial people. It promotes the integration and unity of culture. It also provides convenience for the daily transportation of materials for the local territorial people and various shopping malls, and accelerates the development of the territory's economy. Moreover, because the roads promote the opening of the territory, there is no secret in each territory. Invisibly, these local territorial people entering and leaving various territories have become "detectives" to monitor the situation of various territories for the Luo family.
It can be said that after the past ten years, the Luo family has persisted in expanding the network of the marching avenues. Now, in Feiqian Kingdom and Zhuhou Kingdom, a complete road system has been formed. In the next step, Zhengliang is preparing to connect the roads between Anyue Mountain City, Village City and Qibu City into a line. In the Luo family's territory, a wide marching main line will be built from east to west. Then, with this main line as the center, the route of the marching avenues will continue to spread around the territory. Finally, a reasonably distributed and tightly connected road network will be formed in the Luo family's territory.
In the early morning of the rain, there were not many people outside Anyue Mountain City at this time, so the road seemed quite quiet.
After walking out of the area of the town, the surroundings suddenly became empty. Within hundreds of meters near both sides of the avenue, all the rice that had just been planted in the fields was green and covered with green fields.
Baili Hei, who was moving forward, suddenly became happy. The horse's hoof with iron hoofs nailed to his feet sounded cheerful singing on the road. Previously, the other Southern Barbarian war horse "Lightning", which was riding by Zhengliang, had been following Zhengliang for a long time, in order to give lightning a reasonable rest, Zhengliang had to cancel the punishment of Baili Hei yesterday and re-used it as the closest mount.
Baili Hei obviously knew that his master would take him everywhere again, so he seemed particularly excited. Today, he did not use his "invisible hoof" to attack other war horses close to him for the first time. This allowed Ali, Hiduan and others who were also riding war horses around him to protect Zhengliang, and more reasonably, and strictly guard Zhengliang in the center.
The team moved forward and stopped at the foot of the mountain at the entrance of the mountain range where the workshops were located. Zhengliang first inspected the situation of the papermaking workshop here.
Currently, there is only the only papermaking workshop located here in the Luo Family Territory. There are also a large number of bamboo forests and a large number of mountain streams, which is indeed the most suitable construction site for papermaking workshops.
Due to the large number of craftsmen and workshop workers being collected here, their families moved to live and settled nearby. Therefore, a village of hundreds of people had been formed near the paper workshop. Nearby leaders generally call this village Paper Village.
The reason why it is called this by other hierarchies is not only because the only papermaking workshop in the Luo Family Territory is here, but also because it is also the largest place for paper trading and distribution in the Luo Family Territory. In this village, you can not only see the two largest shopping malls in the Luo Family Territory, the Luo Family House controlled by the wife of Masayoshi, and the temporary station of the Shenwu House controlled by the Shenwu House. You can also see the station of small shopping malls in various places that have been constantly emerging as the Luo Family issued a decree to encourage local hierarchies to carry out commercial activities independently.
After nearly eight years of development (the time when the papermaking workshop was established), this papermaking workshop, which is strictly controlled by the Interior Government Pavilion, has developed into a large papermaking workshop covering an area of over 100, with more than 200 craftsmen and workers. The paper it produces is generally divided into three types: yellow paper, white paper and fine paper. Yellow paper is commonly used by the general leaders and is also used for teaching in the territorial institutions. Because of its low price and quality, it is much better than the paper sold in other commercial houses outside the Luo Family Territory. Therefore, these yellow papers are the most widely used papers in the Luo Family Territory and have penetrated into the daily life of the people. With the continuous spread of this cheap yellow paper, it has also changed the situation where most leaders have never seen paper until their death.
White paper is a common paper used by wealthy families and even wealthy people in various places as the official organization of the territory. Because both the price and the quality are better than the same white paper that flowed into the Luo Family territory from abroad, these white papers have also become the only popular white paper in the Luo Family territory.
The last type of exquisite white paper (referred to as fine paper) is only provided to Daming Mansion and some important institutions of the Luo Family (such as the Intelligence Pavilion and the Interior Pavilion). These fine papers are even better in quality than white paper, and you can tell whether they are fine paper or white paper by touching them with your hands. In addition, these fine papers are printed with coherent Arabic numerals and English page numbers by the unique printing technology of the Luo Family. Since only the Luo Family masters this printing technology and special numbers in English (other daimyos will never do this technology and special Arabic numerals and English letters), this can be regarded as a confidentiality measure for the Luo Family to protect this paper.
Why do we keep this paper so closely confidential? Because these papers are special papers specially used by the Roches to issue orders, transmit intelligence, and carry out special management and other related work.
As mentioned earlier, the refuted territories in various places in the Luo family were distributed in various places in the Luo family territory, in order to reduce the loss of income during the transportation of these territorial income, these retainers and wealthy families are accustomed to convert income directly into food or coins and then deposit it into the local internal affairs cabinet. The advantage of this is that on the one hand, the loss of income of retainers due to transportation is reduced, and on the other hand, the Interior Affairs cabinet can reasonably allocate local resources and use these resources in time for territory construction. At this time, the Interior Affairs cabinet almost serves as a bank in the future.
When the retainers or tyrants deposit income in the internal affairs, the Interior Cabinet will leave a triple record for the local entourage, retainers or tyrants who have paid the tax. The entourage holds such a record as a proof of the tax payment, and the retainers or tyrants can use such record to extract the income they have stored in from any internal affairs cabinet in the Luo family territory. The Interior Cabinet institutions in various parts of the Luo family pay the money and food needed for their own reliance records based on the records in their own hands. Once the records are inconsistent, they can take out the certificates of the Interior Cabinet, retainers or tyrants, and local entourages to compare the authenticity and falsehood, and severely punish those who commit fraud.
However, how can we prevent fraud? At this time, the effect of fine paper will appear.
When the papermaking workshops manufacture fine paper, they designed fine paper specifically for the situations of local internal affairs cabinets (of course, this was mainly designed using the suggestions provided by Zheng Liang himself).
Every time the retainer's income storage business is facing a triplicate recording paper. The printed page numbers on these three sheets of fine paper will be regular. The page numbers of the three exact papers are set by representing the local country, county and the corresponding business. For example, the code corresponding to the Hoshimaki Country is "01" (and the code corresponding to the Tuihou Country is "02"), and the code corresponding to the first county Matsuura County is "010A" (and the code corresponding to the Tuihou Country's first county Yuyuan County is "020A"). This is the tenth business of such business in Taiqian, which corresponds to the tenth business paper, with the code "10". In the end, the printing page number of this fine paper will be "01010A10". In contrast, even if it is the tenth business of the Tuihou Country, its page number will be "02020A10".
The page number fine papers in the location of the representative country will only appear in the location of the representative country and will not appear in other areas. After these fine papers are made, they will be transported away by personnel from the Internal Affairs and Intelligence Bureau on the spot. Then, after filing in these two institutions, the fine papers will be distributed according to the region. Moreover, with the codes on these papers, it is also convenient for the two institutions to archive and manage these materials. Once problems arise, they can quickly search and review.
If foreign forces intend to forge these certificates, local internal affairs cabinet staff (usually for retired and graduated from Roche Institute) can distinguish the authenticity from the quality of paper, printing technology, printed code and handwriting content on the certificate.
For the domestic situation, the production and flow of these fine papers are strictly controlled through dual supervision and supervision of the Intelligence Pavilion and the Internal Affairs Pavilion, as well as the surprise of fine paper printing code codes.
Similarly, using code printing technology on fine paper, these fine papers have been used by Guangfa to apply to territorial orders, intelligence and other affairs. To a certain extent, the situation of territorial orders and intelligence being counterfeited has been eliminated.
In addition to the manufacturing of three types of paper, the Renovation Paper Workshop is also responsible for printing various books needed by the territory, and even accepting bookings from the mall to print books for the mall. In addition to being provided for internal use of the territory, these papers and books will also be sold abroad through the internal affairs cabinet and the intelligence cabinet after passing the review of the internal affairs cabinet and the intelligence cabinet, and then earn foreign exchange for the Luo family.
