    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1284

    After Chen Ziang assigned the major affairs to be handled to Qin An, Chief of Political Affairs, and Li Qiye, Chief of Military Affairs, he himself became the shopkeeper.

    He spends a long time leading the army to fight and fight, and rarely has leisure time to manage by himself.

    Now all the internal enemies have been defeated, and the external enemies will not be able to stir up any storms in a short time, and the world is temporarily peaceful.

    Although the empire is facing many difficult problems to deal with, Chen Ziang also knows that hot tofu cannot be eaten in a hurry.

    Many things have to be dealt with step by step and in a rhythmic manner. You must distinguish between priorities. If you are too impatient and aggressive, you will not be able to handle them well.

    As long as the various departments of the imperial court are established and the rectification of the local governments is completed, a strong executive department can be formed.

    ? Sharpen the knife without mistakenly chopping firewood. With a strong executive department, it will be extremely efficient whether it is to re-measure the acres of land across the country, divide the registered population into land, or do other things.

    At present, the central departments of the imperial court have not yet completed the establishment, and the local departments in many provinces are filled with a large number of former officials, which makes many things unable to be effectively implemented.

    Now there is Qin An, the chief minister of government affairs, who is in charge of this matter. Chen Ziang believes that Qin An will soon complete the rectification of the government affairs.

    As long as the rectification work of the government is completed, the policies of the imperial court can be effectively implemented in all provinces of the country.

    However, to complete the rectification cannot be completed in a day or two, and it will take time.

    Therefore, Chen Zi'ang didn't go to urge Qin An, but took advantage of this leisure time to take the two wives for a private visit, planning to visit the newly built imperial capital.

    The imperial capital is forty miles long and wide, and each area is also planned and designed by Chen Ziang in advance.

    In order to reward those hardworking people, according to Chen Ziang's instructions, the houses in the imperial capital have been allocated to those refugees who participated in the work-for-work relief, and 30 large market towns have been re-planned in the imperial capital.

    These refugees are from various provinces. During the war, they all fled to the capital one after another.

    However, the government of the previous dynasty did not give them relief, but they were hungry and starved to death everywhere.

    After Chen Ziang led his army to occupy this area, he also felt quite difficult in the face of millions of refugees.

    Because it is a huge burden to have so many refugees, if it is not done well, it will greatly affect the stability of the occupied area.

    Fortunately, Chen Zi'ang is not a person who retreats in the face of difficulties. He rises to the difficulties and adopts the method of work for relief to relieve these refugees.

    A large number of refugees were diverted to various places, responsible for building roads, water conservancy facilities, cities, and transport teams, and some young and strong became supplementary soldiers of the Qinghe Army.

    Chen Ziang abruptly turned this huge burden into something beneficial to their Qinghe army.

    Now that the imperial capital has been built, and as the situation in various provinces has stabilized, many refugees have embarked on their way home again.

    However, a considerable number of refugees stayed, and Chen Ziang also ordered them to be allocated houses in the imperial capital city and the market towns outside the city, and settled them down, allowing them to live in a house.

    Moreover, the imperial capital is surrounded by hundreds of miles of flat wilderness, and now most of the wilderness has been reclaimed into arable land through the method of cash-for-work.

    And what Chen Ziang and the others need to do next is to divide up the land so that the tillers can have their fields.

    Chen Zi'ang took the two wives for a private visit this time, and also wanted to find and solve problems in the actual research.

    In fact, Qin An and others strongly opposed Chen Zi'ang's private visit through Weibo, after all, it was not safe.

    However, Chen Ziang is unwilling to be trapped in the magnificent palace, because sometimes what is heard is not what is seen.

    If you don't go to various places to have a look, take a look, and just listen to the reports of Qin An and others, who knows whether what they say is true or not?

    If they united to deceive him, wouldn't he become a puppet who was emptied?

    What's more, the empire has been established. As the emperor, if he dare not walk around on his own territory, how can the people feel safe?

    Therefore, Chen Zi'ang declined the dissuasion of Qin An and the others, and personally took Chen Xiaoyu and Chu Yue to wander the streets of the imperial capital hand in hand.

      Chen Ziang was going to wander the streets, Qin An, Li Qiye and others naturally did not dare to be careless, so they sent a lot of people to protect Chen Ziang both openly and secretly.

    Zhang Xingbang, captain of the personal guard, led dozens of guard brothers who had experienced many battles, pretending to be ordinary people, and distributed them around Chen Ziang for protection.

    The Operations Executive Department of the Intelligence Investigation Institute also dispatched a large number of people to control various places to prevent anyone from doing harm to Chen Ziang.

    Facing these overt and covert protections, Chen Ziang naturally did not refuse, as long as they did not interfere with his shopping with his two wives.

    This time, Chen Ziang visited the south area of ??the imperial capital, which is planned as a commercial area, so most of the shops facing the three main roads are already open for business.

    Because hundreds of thousands of Qinghe troops are now stationed on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and Chen Ziang gave them a holiday.

    Therefore, the streets are full of soldiers of the Qinghe Army in black uniforms with sabers across their waists.

    They gathered in groups of three or five, and went in and out of the colorfully decorated brothels, restaurants, and the streets were filled with crowds, as if it was lively during the New Year.

    The shops facing the street were also patronized by many soldiers of the Qinghe Army. They spent a lot of money to buy things, making the vendors laugh from ear to ear.

    In the past, the common people were afraid of being a soldier, because the soldiers' military discipline was lax, and there were countless people who ate the king's meal and bought and sold by force.

    However, in these commercial streets in the south of the imperial capital, the soldiers and civilians enjoyed themselves happily, and the bargaining with each other gave people a feeling of prosperity.

    Chen Ziang saw a few drunken soldiers molesting a passing woman, before Chen Ziang sent someone to stop him.

    A military judge who led a patrol along the street led a team of military police to arrive. The military judge gave an order to arrest these drunk soldiers and beat them with military sticks in the street, causing the surrounding people to applaud loudly.  .

    Seeing the military judge's stern and selfless law enforcement on the street, Chen Ziang also nodded in satisfaction. He felt that the brothers in the disciplined army did a good job. As long as they enforce the law strictly, they can guarantee the Qinghe Army's good reputation.

    Chen Ziang saw disciplined troops coming forward to maintain military discipline, so he was just a bystander and did not participate in it.

    After wandering around for a while, Chen Ziang took Chen Xiaoyu and Chu Yue to sit down in a tea shed facing the street, and ordered a few cups of tea to rest.

    "How does it feel to walk all the way?"

    Chen Ziang pointed to the bustling people on the street and asked Chen Xiaoyu with a smile.

    "The streets are wide and tidy, with many vendors, and the military and civilians are in harmony, making it quite bustling and lively." Chen Xiaoyu replied after thinking for a while.

    "Ah Yue, how do you feel?"

    After hearing what Chen Xiaoyu said, Chen Ziang turned his attention to Chu Yue again.

    After thinking for a while, Chu Yue replied: "Although this place is quite lively, compared to the market in Yunxi Mansion, there are still fewer shops and goods for sale."

    At the beginning, the base camp of the Qinghe Army was in Yunxi Mansion, and Chen Ziang encouraged business, so Yunxi Mansion can be said to be extremely lively.

    Now that the imperial capital has just been established, although the southern area has been classified as a commercial area, apart from the cloth village, there are only a few brothels and restaurants selling food, which is undoubtedly much more monotonous.

    "That's right, there are indeed fewer shops." Chen Ziang nodded.

    Chen Ziang asked with a smile: "Are you interested in opening some shops here?"

    "us?"

    Both Chen Xiaoyu and Chu Yue looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces, wondering what kind of medicine Chen Ziang sold in his gourd.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
