The forces of Prince Qingjiang and Wei Jun were locked in a fierce and irreconcilable battle.
This made things convenient for Zhao Rong.
After stabilizing the rear, Shen Qing headed straight for the front lines.
Looking at the vast ocean before him, Shen Qing smiled and said, "Big sister is indeed a prophet; she has already prepared the boats in advance."
Commander Zhao, you don't know, His Majesty has prepared over a thousand ships of various sizes, including a hundred large ships and two extra-large warships.
The Emperor called large warships "warships," while the extra-large ones were called "aircraft carriers."
Warships can typically carry a few hundred people, while aircraft carriers can carry several thousand.
Zhao Rong's eyes widened. He had seen hundreds of people before, but thousands?
Wow, that's amazing.
Furthermore, the ships were already fully loaded with weapons, with all sorts of new weapons being used in this battle.
Shenxi ordered Zhao Rong to attack the King of Southern Frontier, while Shen Qing was tasked with leading the attack on Xinyi Prefecture.
He also told Shen Qing that they should wait until the Prince of Qingjiang and Wei Jun were both severely injured, or one was dead and the other wounded, before launching an attack.
This is called sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight, and then reaping the benefits of the situation.
Zhao Rong then led his men to attack the southern border.
The southern border region is plagued by miasma, but Fang Chenyan has developed a medicine to ward off it. If you carry it with you, you will not be contaminated by the miasma.
Furthermore, it is advisable to choose to advance during the day after sunrise, as the concentration of miasma is lower.
With its many mountains, rivers, and trees, southern Xinjiang is extremely difficult to conquer.
Large weapons cannot be brought in, and there is also the risk of enemy ambush.
In addition, due to the unfamiliarity with the geographical location, getting lost is a frequent occurrence.
Therefore, although the southern border region may seem small, it took a full three years of fighting before it was finally conquered with the help of new weapons—fighter jets.
King Lu had already killed the King of Southern Frontier before his defeat and retreat.
He felt that all the bad luck was brought by the Prince of Lu.
The King of Southern Xinjiang was captured alive by Zhao Rong. With a single order from Chen Xi, Zhao Rong was free to do as he pleased.
The King of Southern Xinjiang has done quite a few bad things.
They often used people to concoct poisons, causing the deaths of hundreds or even thousands of people.
They deserved to die!
The King of Southern Xinjiang still wanted to use the Gu poison technique to buy his life, but Zhao Rong said, "Now that Daxin is developing so well, do we still need your underworld tricks like Gu poison? Go use it in the underworld."
Speak, and with a single stroke of the sword, a head will fall to the ground.
Southern Xinjiang has been developed into a scenic area with various landscapes that are unique to this region.
Later, it added one-fifth of the revenue to Daxin's finances.
Shen Qing waited for his chance. Wei Jun had failed to defeat the King of Qingjiang and fled with several hundred men to an island he had once searched for.
Although the Prince of Qingjiang was victorious, he also suffered heavy losses.
Shen Qing seized the opportunity and took back the Xinyi Mansion.
Then, riding the wave of morale, they went straight to the island where Wei Jun was located.
Wei Jun was furious. "I've already run to this godforsaken place, why are you still chasing after me?"
Upon seeing the warship fleet led by Shen Qing, they immediately cowered.
His group of several hundred people wasn't even enough to serve the other party.
So they offered no resistance and simply surrendered.
Shen Qing investigated him and found that he was capable and had not done anything immoral, which is why he was not executed.
And he was recommended to Chenxi.
After careful observation and consideration, Shenxi transferred Wei Jun to another prefecture as its prefect.
A capable and upright person doesn't need to do anything.
With the world unified, all people will be united.
The people of Daxin live a very happy life.
No need to buy a house. The imperial court will provide houses for newlyweds, and regardless of whether you are rich or poor, powerful or powerless, all the newlywed houses provided will be the same.
The Shenxi government places particular constraints on powerful and wealthy families, and any instances of abuse of power for personal gain are severely punished.
However, they may also be rewarded for their abilities, usually with some glamorous jewelry and ornaments. But since these are gifts, they cannot be bought or sold; one can only have the right to use them.
When this meritorious person dies, the proceeds will be reclaimed from the national treasury.
These capable ministers were given positions and rewards, but their descendants were not.
If their descendants want to acquire it, they need to have the ability to do so themselves.
Ordinary people could become officials through the imperial examinations, and the examination system was completely different. In addition to civil and military examinations, there were also skills examinations.
As long as you have the ability to develop technology, even if you say that you can weave baskets in various patterns, you may be able to pass the exam and become a handicraft teacher.
That's the same treatment as civil servants.
There are many ways to select talent; the more talented people there are, the better the development will be.
Furthermore, with the development of overseas trade, Daxin earned a lot of money, so the common people didn't need to work themselves to death.
A six-hour workday, three days a week.
The rest of the time is at your own discretion.
Because you have plenty of time, you have time to spend it.
Funds will only circulate if people choose to deposit money, even if it's because they want to save up to buy a big-ticket item.
The pension system was relatively well-developed, with both children providing care for the elderly and the imperial court offering care for the elderly.
The policy of children caring for their parents means that children are responsible for taking care of their elderly parents. If an elderly person in the family falls ill and becomes unable to take care of themselves and needs the care of their children, then the imperial court will continue to pay young people's salaries.
But that young man didn't need to work.
This continues until the elderly person passes away, or recovers and is able to take care of themselves.
Furthermore, the imperial court would also have community hospitals conduct regular physical examinations for these elderly people, with a lottery system for the examinations, to prevent cheating or mistreatment of the elderly.
The imperial court encouraged marriage and childbirth. Those who were unable to have children were required to adopt children or orphans from welfare institutions.
If the child died young, the person still needs to adopt or be raised by a foster child while they are still physically able.
If someone is too old to raise their children, the community will send someone to take care of them. However, this care is collective and can hardly be as meticulous as the care provided by their children.
Therefore, the people of Daxin are still willing to have children.
Without children, one is destined not to receive the best care in old age.
Abuse of elderly people who are unable to care for themselves by their children is a serious crime. Of course, there needs to be actual evidence. It cannot be based solely on the elderly person's words. Generally, no one would dare to actually commit abuse.
Furthermore, education and healthcare are completely free.
There is no need to be afraid of childbirth and medical treatment.
Children's workplaces should not be more than 200 miles away from the elderly.
This is beneficial to family cohesion, preventing situations where the elderly and children cannot see each other throughout the year.
The imperial court strictly controls the prices of goods closely related to people's basic needs such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and there is basically no significant increase in prices.
As for inheritance, well, just look up inheritance tax, and there's absolutely no way to hide it.
What are the regulatory authorities doing?
If anyone is found hiding the goods, those in the regulatory authorities will be held equally guilty.
Inheritance tax can be as high as 50% to 60%.
Ordinary people make up 50%, while the wealthy and powerful make up 60%.
Furthermore, the wealth is divided equally among the children, leaving absolutely no possibility for them to amass large sums of money.
There are no people who are extremely wealthy, but there are people who become wealthy through their own abilities.
Looking at everything before her, Chenxi felt completely satisfied.
As long as she is there, this great Xin will prosper and thrive.
