After Jiang Yu's statement was compiled into a chapter, Shen Zhezi used a red pen to criticize "special" at the beginning of this seal, and the other officials present saw this scene, and a trace of strange color flashed on their faces, and then they began to ponder the deeper meaning of this matter, as well as the involvement that may arise in their own ministry, and they all paid attention to it.

This is also related to a regulation of the line in handling various affairs, that is, the order of affairs and the amount of force.

Since Shen Zhezi presided over the line, the affairs that need to be handled are no longer limited to the military, politics, or a single place, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there are all kinds of opportunities. Although the Taiwan government is co-ordinated and many subordinate officials cooperate and share the labor, many affairs are complicated, and it is difficult to do everything personally, after all, a person's energy is limited. The Northern Expedition was only nearly halfway through, and he didn't want to die suddenly from exhaustion.

Therefore, when dealing with various affairs, he often identifies priorities to classify them, such as slow, regular, urgent, special, and special governors, to show the different levels of attention to these affairs.

Among them, the "special governor" who expressed the highest level of concern, in addition to saying that he was very concerned about this matter and needed to deal with it as soon as possible, should also appoint supervision officials to supervise the handling process.

Originally, this was just a small skill classification for Shen Zhezi himself when dealing with various affairs, but the Xingtai itself was dominated by him, so soon his private marking and instructions became a standard for the entire Xingtai administration. All urgent and special affairs must be given priority, and manpower and material use must be tilted and concentrated to a certain extent.

On the other hand, matters such as deferral and regularity do not need to be overly urgent, and although they are not completely put on hold, they certainly do not take too much importance. In other words, the force should be used in a place where the leader can see, and the leader does not pay much attention to the matter, no matter how well it is done, the effect is not great.

Shen Zhezi was also aware of this phenomenon for a long time, and he let it go with emotion, but he did not regard it as a regulation and marked it with articles. Sometimes, this tacit understanding and unspoken rules are more conducive to establishing the authority of the superior.

Until now, whether or not the affairs discussed by the officials of various ministries can be specially instructed by Zhu has become one of the criteria for judging whether those officials have fulfilled their duties.

If those officials do not receive special approval for a long time, at least they will show two problems: the first is that their talents are limited and they cannot clearly recognize the priorities, and the second is that they lack virtue and cannot get the graceful and affectionate affection of the generals.

When this logic becomes a consensus, even if those officials are not impeached, they will lose their prestige among their subordinates and be embarrassed to take their positions.

After Jiang Yu finished playing, it was the turn of Xie Shang, the official of the Confessor's Desk, to speak.

The Confessor's Desk is in charge of the Hajj guests, the edict envoys, etc., which is simply to welcome the guests and public relations. Originally, there was no official structure in Jiangdong Taicheng, but only the establishment of the Confessor's servant was controlled by Guangluxun.

However, after the establishment of the Xingtai in Luoyang, the number of various visits, guests and condolences increased, so Shen Zhezi simply set up a separate platform for the confessor, and in addition to these, he also added the duties of visiting the virtuous and inspecting, holding the festival and receiving grievances, which greatly strengthened the authority of the eunuch platform.

In this way, in addition to welcoming and public relations, the Confessor's Station is also responsible for the duties of inspecting and promoting wild talents, rewarding the Quartet, and appealing against people's grievances. The most important point of this change is that the Confessor has the power to visit the virtuous and inspect the people, which greatly shakes the authority of the Zhongzheng Township Council. In fact, among these newly recovered states and counties, Shen Zhezi did not set up a central official at all.

The township streams of the several counties that followed Shen Zhezi into Luo this time can all be classified as the village sages who entered the Hajj, and all kinds of reception arrangements are managed by the official courtier's desk.

Shen Zhezi's current position of power, naturally not usurped into the pilgrimage ceremony, but there is no place for tricks, although the tombs of Sima Yi and his son have been dug up by the Huns, but the remains of the imperial tomb are always there. Shen Zhezi was also stained with the light of the dry bones in these mounds, and worshiped the emperor's mausoleum on all sides, and the rites were accepted by the living.

Xie Shang himself is a first-class talent in the flashy world, and in his early years, he supervised the construction of bell chime ritual vessels, so that the ritual music returned to the dynasty, and now he has become a master of the ancient rites of Taiwan. When it was his turn to speak, he proposed that those villagers should participate in a series of celebrations before and after the New Year as Yexian Xiangxiu, so that they could deeply feel the solemnity of the ceremony.

For these ceremonies and the like, Shen Zhezi has always had an attitude of not caring about them, as long as they are not too cumbersome and extravagant and delay the business, they will also be left behind. Considering that the current New Year is approaching, the word "urgent" was instructed.

This meeting, because it is approaching the end of the year, can also be regarded as a year-end summary, and it is not limited to the current Western Expedition. Therefore, all the participants had statements from all departments, and even He Chong, who was outside the stage and was in an embarrassing situation, had spoken.

Among these speeches, the most noteworthy is the speech of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the great scholar of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Yu Tiao, and the general of Hecao, Ji You. Without him, one of these two is in charge of the money bag and the other is in charge of the logistics of boats and vehicles, which can be said to be the two official offices with the heaviest powers.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is the largest structure among the six departments of Xingtai, and there are as many as ten Caos under the jurisdiction alone, among which the Moderate Branch, Cangcao, Kucao, Hucao, etc., are not inferior to the general Dashangshu.

When it was Yu Tiao's turn to report, the many books involved in Chen Zuo alone were filled with several large boxes, which was only a result of summarizing and sorting, and as for the more detailed information, it was as many as a few rooms, so it was naturally impossible to completely carry it to the palace.

Rao was like this, and Yu Tiao's report lasted for several hours, and everyone in the congregation fell asleep when they heard it. As for the final results, they are also very gratifying, and the most eye-catching is the population.

As early as a few years ago, after Shen Zhezi put an end to the Jiangdong rebellion, he started a census work, which has lasted more than three years, and finally has a rough result. In the area controlled by Xingtai, excluding the newly recovered Hongnong, Shangluo, Hedong and other places, the total registered population has reached 1.8 million!

When Yu Tiao said this number, the whole hall was in an uproar, not because the number was too small, but because it was too much! You must know that in the first year of Emperor Taikang of the Chinese Dynasty, after the destruction of Wu, the number of households in the country was only more than 2.4 million.

However, at present, the area ruled by Xingtai has not yet extended to the north and south, and Guanzhong, Shuzhong, Hebei and other places are still within the control of the enemy. But even so, the registered population has caught up with the first year of Taikang, and this result is really staggering.

Shen Zhezi was not overly surprised by this, in his opinion, the so-called population statistics of this era did not actually reflect the total population of the world, but only reflected the strength of the current government. If the government has great control, it can incorporate a large number of people into the naturalized system, and if the government does not have enough authority, a large number of people will naturally die out of the country.

In the first year of Taikang, there were more than 2.4 million households in the country, but by the third year of Taikang, the population had reached nearly 3.8 million. In just three years, the natural population growth will certainly not have such a large increase, naturally because after reunification, with the increase in the ruling power of the regime, more and more shady households and displaced people have become naturalized.

Shen Zhezi obtained these materials from the old books of the canons and regulations collected by the people after the recovery of Luoyang, and he was still faintly disappointed with the number of accounts reported by Yu Tiao.

It is true that the wind of Jiangdong's shade is difficult to get rid of for a while, even if they have the example of their Shen family taking the lead in releasing shade households, there will definitely be a lot of deaths. However, since he took office, Jiangbei has never relaxed its control in terms of population, especially those township heroes in Yuzhou have been cut off a lot because of such problems.

Coupled with the gradual resettlement of the displaced people from several wars, Shen Zhezi originally thought that he should be able to catch up with the number of residents in the first year of Taikang, but he didn't expect that there was still a gap of more than 500,000 households. When converted into population, it is a population gap of more than 3 million!

It can be seen that even with the shadow of the powerful, the weakening of the population by this decades-long turmoil is real and painful.

Although it is not as good as the old years of Taikang, this figure is not the same as that at the beginning of the renaissance. Shen Zhezi still remembered that when he first came to this world, Huiji, as one of the three Wu Dynasty, had a huge county government, and the registered population was only between 30,000 and 40,000 households, and the registered population of the entire Jiangdong Imperial Court was less than 500,000 households.

In other words, since Shen Zhezi went north to take office and presided over the expedition, he has increased the population of more than 1.3 million households to Jinzuo.

Of course, such a large increase is not all due to Shen Zhezi's achievements, during the Yuan Emperor and Ming Emperor periods, the political power was already unstable, and the books used between counties and counties were even the remnants of the Eastern Wu and Chinese dynasties, and there was a lack of official authoritative statistics.

And during the reign of Shen Zhezi, the control of the entire Jiangdong was incomparable to that of Su Zu when he was at his strongest. Even if you don't count the number of new people in Jiangbei, under the premise of having such control, coupled with the relatively scientific statistical method provided by Shen Zhezi, it is very easy for the registered population to reach one million.

In other words, Shen Zhezi's northward expansion over the years has increased the population of nearly 700,000 households to the Jin court. In addition to this, there are more than 200,000 households that have not been named, such as criminal households and tun households. In this way, Shen Zhezi's merits are not small.

Such a large increase in population is not an exaggeration.

In Hedong alone, after expressing his submission, Xue Tao presented the register of the number of households controlled by his family, which amounted to 17,000 households, which was not inferior to a small regime, and whether this number was true remains to be confirmed. From this, we can imagine how strong the power of these truly powerful dock wall masters in the north is.

In every respect, the growth of the registered population is the best news. This 1.8 million registered households, if we put it more realistically, is more than 1.8 million independent tax units, which is a huge ruling volume that no independent or semi-independent, hostile or semi-hostile regime in the world does not have, including the Shihu regime of Zhao Zhao!
