Daqin's judicial reform is still in full swing, and the professional training and assessment of officials in the two outer departments of the capital water supervision and the ordnance supervision department is about to be rolled out again.

Although Qin Mudu and the important ministers of the DPRK and China reached the same agreement on these reforms, the departments involved in the reforms, as well as officials in similar departments, will inevitably form some backlash.

The glorious deeds of the mission to Europe are far better than Zhang Qian's passage to the Western Regions in those years, like a timely rain, which is just used to divert the attention of the country, so Qin Mu not only specially convened a court meeting to implement the matter of garrisoning troops in Europe.

Moreover, the "Daqin Times" made a big hype about this matter, in addition to diverting domestic attention, but also to encourage more people to go out and encourage businesses to enter Europe in a big way.

If these small countries such as the Netherlands and Portugal can do business in Daqin, and they have huge trade advantages, can't they grab the European market?

If there was no guarantee for going because of the unfamiliarity with Europe before, then now you can go with confidence, the east of the Cape of Good Hope is protected by the Royal Navy, and after entering the Atlantic, the ports of Portugal, Britain, and Spain can dock freely, and can be protected and supplied accordingly.

In Europe, there are many countries that can trade by themselves, and they are tariff-free. Daqin itself has two ports, the port of Aveiro and the port of Marseille in the Mediterranean.

You are no longer helpless, the Royal Navy of Great Qin has already sailed for Europe, and no country will dare to deliberately make things difficult for you there.

What are you waiting for? Go ahead. Let's set sail with Daqin's goods! Over there, Daqin's goods are in short supply, and the price is dozens of times that of the mainland. Even a hundred times, as long as you can get to Europe, you can make a lot of money.

At present, shipbuilding orders in shipyards all over Daqin have been scheduled for at least a year, especially the flying clippers with amazing speed, which are the preferred ship type for businessmen.

Every day, there are more than 8,000 Daqin merchant ships sailing in Korea, Japan, Nanyang, South China, India, Persia, the Red Sea and other places. The number of merchant ships. It is increasing at an astonishing rate, and it is believed that it will soon surpass the Netherlands. Become the world's largest maritime trading country with the largest number of merchant ships.

The strong development of the Royal Navy paved the way for Daqin's goods and opened up the market. Within the control of the Royal Navy, you just have to be brave of the wind and waves. If you send the goods over, you don't have to worry about not making money.

In fact, even if there is no need to exert diplomatic and military pressure, Daqin's goods do not have to worry about not being marketable, whether it is traditional silk, tea, porcelain, or emerging yarn, cotton, ready-to-wear, woolen clothing, leather clothing, toffee, beef jerky, special lavender, as well as soap, toilets, batteries, light bulbs, searchlights, cement, rubber products; Knives, swords, matches, glass crafts, paper, pen and ink, calligraphy and painting, Confucian classics, Buddhist scriptures, medical books, and delicate jewelry made of new steel. jade carvings, all kinds of spices, medicinal herbs, furniture, lacquerware, etc.;

As Daqin's influence continues to expand, countries around the world have a deeper and deeper admiration for Daqin. People are mostly proud to be able to use Daqin's goods.

Daqin's goods are being sold overseas through nearly 10,000 merchant ships, bringing back a large number of overseas goods and a shipload of wealth.

Two days ago, news came back that a merchant ship from the Ocean Trading Company had returned from the Persian Gulf, a battery and five light guns. When a tribal chief saw it, he saw it as a fetish. Buy it with a treasure worth 300,000 dragon coins. This matter was reported back and caused a sensation in Daqin.

And similar legends are by no means singular. Many novelty products often fetch eye-watering prices overseas. This kind of business, as long as it is done, is enough for people to enjoy it for a lifetime.

Such huge profits lure more and more people to join overseas trade.

Now, such a huge market in Europe has been opened in front of the merchants of Daqin, and the report of the "Daqin Times" immediately triggered a huge response, and many trading companies have organized fleets to prepare to sail to Europe to seize the market.

Under the boiling of the government and the opposition, the judicial reform and the training and evaluation of officials of the Metropolitan Water Supervision and Ordnance Supervision have become somewhat undisturbed. This is also the effect that Qin Mu hopes to achieve.

The two departments of the Ordnance Supervision and the Capital Water Supervision are relatively heavy on the "craftsmanship", and there is no comparison with a noble department like the Hanlin Academy.

The training and assessment was quietly rolled out in these two departments, and the officials of the DPRK and China did not have much "pain", and there were even imperial historians who took the initiative to conduct training and assessment for the Taifu Temple, Sinong Temple and other departments, or Qin Mu was worried that the action would be too big and would have adverse consequences, so he temporarily pressed it.

In the Huagai Palace, Qin Mu summoned Wang Fuzhi, a scholar from Hanlin who presided over the "Daqin Times", and said to him: "Wang Qing, the Daqin Times is a major newspaper of the imperial court, and I am a must-read in every issue. However, I think that the current Daqin Times still has some shortcomings, that is, the categories are relatively chaotic, and this aspect must be improved. ”

Wang Fuzhi hurriedly asked, "I don't know how Your Majesty wants to improve?" ”

Qin Mu said solemnly: "What I mean is that it can't be arranged so generally. It is necessary to divide the industry sector. For example, the first page is current affairs news, the second page is science and technology, the third page is finance, and the fourth page is agriculture and animal husbandry. I have a detailed layout here, so you can just take it and follow it. ”

Wang Fuzhi took the plain note handed down by the palace maid, and saw that it had been sorted into categories. Wang Fuzhi felt that if it was arranged in this way, it would be more concise and orderly. Whoever wants to read what type of report can just find the corresponding category section, so I agreed.

Qin Mu did this, in fact, he wanted to use the big newspaper as a guide, and in a way that moisturized things silently, the status of all walks of life was reflected in the newspaper.

For example, the science and technology section was put on the second edition by him, second only to current political news.

The innovation of science and technology inevitably involves mathematics, geometry, physics, chemistry and other disciplines, and over time, the status of these natural disciplines will be unconsciously improved and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

After dividing the sections, Qin Mu said: "In order to ensure the fairness and authority of the Daqin Times, the report cannot be reported just by chasing the wind and shadows. Newspapers should hire some high-quality people as reporters to follow up and understand some major news and emergencies on the spot;

And when reporting the news, try not to have a subjective position, your task is to report the incident as it is, as for the people to see it, what kind of position they hold is the people's business, you must ensure your neutrality. Only in this way can the authority of the Daqin Times be maintained for a long time. ”

If even the authority is gone, then it will be useless for Qin Mu to go to great lengths to divide the industry sections.

In short, in order to improve the status of mathematics, physics and chemistry, Qin Mu can be said to have done everything.

The situation in China is different from that of the West, after the Renaissance, various natural disciplines are flourishing, and China's monopoly on Confucianism since the Han Dynasty has led to a serious atrophy of other natural disciplines.

Wang Fuzhi didn't know that he was thinking so much, and when he heard that a large number of reporters were going to be hired, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Your Majesty, this will greatly increase the newspaper's expenditure."

Qin Mu immediately waved his hand and said, "Wang Qing is an expert in academics, but in terms of business, you are really not good." Hiring a reporter will increase a newspaper's spending, but it can greatly improve the speed, quality, and authority of a newspaper's news reporting.

The higher the authority, the greater the sales volume of newspapers and periodicals, the higher the income of the newspaper will inevitably be, and the fee for advertising can also be greatly increased.

Just do what I say, and I will find you a capable person for the specific administrative aspects, so you don't have to worry about administrative matters. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
