Chapter 163 County Town Planning

After dinner, Ouyang Shuo returned to his room and logged in to the game.

In the game, Ouyang Shuo walked out of the room and looked at the slightly deserted courtyard, which was a little uncomfortable. Usually, at this time, Yingyu and Qing'er also got up one after another and began to freshen up in the courtyard corridor.

Now, in the huge courtyard, except for the servants, Ouyang Shuo is alone.

Throwing off the emotions in his mind, Ouyang Shuo picked up the fine iron gun from the weapon rack and began to practice the Yang family gun, which could not be shaken. After this period of hard cultivation, his Yang family gun is finally officially introduced.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Ouyang Shuo appeared in his office on time.

Ouyang Shuo picked up the drawings on the table and began to look at them, this is the first draft of the overall plan of Shanhai County sent by the Construction Department yesterday, and the main operator is Hao Jiancheng, assistant director of the Construction Department.

According to the plan of the Construction Division, the second wall is six kilometers long, twelve meters high and six meters wide.

Unlike the first wall, the second wall has only three sides. In other words, the south side of the second wall is no longer built, but the east and west walls are built directly to the root of the south mountain range, and the mountain range is integrated. In other words, the rocky mountain range is the fourth wall.

Because there are only three walls, the second wall is much taller than the first, but in terms of the amount of work, it is a little more than twice the size of the first wall. With the current population base of Shanhai County, the Construction Division is confident that the construction of the second city wall will be completed within one month.

After the second city wall was built, it covered an area of 36 square kilometers, which was four times the area of the old city, which was equivalent to rebuilding three mountain and sea towns.

At the same time, the moat that was previously built will be transformed into an inner city river, providing enough water for the city's residents.

During the period of Shanhai Town, residents drank water, mainly by digging wells. In the future, in addition to drinking water, domestic water and workshop water can be used to get water from the inner city river, which is very convenient.

The second part of the county plan is the redivision of the urban area.

According to the planning of the Construction Division, Shanhai County is divided into four urban districts. The area within the first wall is called the core area. It is demarcated by the extension of the first city wall to the north of the city wall, and the area north of the north city wall is called the North City District. Beicheng District is also the largest of the four districts, which is twice the size of Shanhai Town.

The east and west sides of the core area are Xicheng District and Dongcheng District respectively. These two urban areas cover the smallest area, only half the area of Shanhai Town.

The third and most core part of the county planning is the functional orientation of each urban area.

The core area is demarcated from north to south and is divided into upper and lower halves. The southern half will be the brain of the territory, similar to the ancient imperial palace. According to the planning of the Construction Division, the southern half of the area is divided into three parts: left, middle and right.

Needless to say, the central part is the upgraded Lord's Mansion and the garden behind the Lord's Mansion. On the left, there is the future government office area, and the yamen of each department will be concentrated in this area.

On the right, it is now a cultural and diocese. The Yellow Emperor's Temple, Mazu Temple, Chenghuang Temple, Zhaoxian Hall, private school, and Lianzhou College are all concentrated in the district. Because the core area will no longer allow people to live, the Mazu Temple and the Chenghuang Temple, two temples that need to enjoy the people's incense at all times, will be relocated from the core area to the northern area.

Similarly, private schools will also be moved out of the core area. As for the Recruitment Hall and Lianzhou College, they were relocated to the northern half of the core area. That is to say, on the right side of the southern half of the district, only one building of the Yellow Emperor's Temple remains. The Yellow Emperor's Temple, which will be the future temple, will only allow the lord to worship.

The northern half of the core area is bounded by the central axis and divided into two parts: left and right. On the left, there will be the college area, where the former Zhaoxian Hall and Lianzhou College are located. In the future, other colleges in the territory will also be built in this area. As for the high-end market, which was originally located on the left side of the northern half, it will be moved to the west side of the square, one east and one west with the teleportation array, facing each other.

The right part of the northern half, which is now the military district. According to the plan, only two buildings, the Military Affairs Department and the barracks, will remain on the right. As for the Jiafang Division, the Bow and Crossbow Division, the Weapon Workshop, and the Alchemy Workshop, they will all be relocated from the core area and relocated to the Eastern District.

With the rapid development of the military industry, the military zone can no longer accommodate these workshops. Therefore, it is very appropriate to place the four major workshops in the eastern district.

As for the western area, it is the planned official residence area. Officials at all levels and their relatives will be resettled in the official residence area. The official residence area is next to the official office area in the core area, which is convenient for officials to respond to and release the office, which is now commonly known as commuting. In the future, the official residence area will inevitably evolve into a powerful area.

Finally, there is the North District, which has the largest area. The northern district is bounded by the central axis and is divided into two districts, east and west, each of which is equivalent to the area of a Shanhai town. The commercial street, which was originally located on the central axis of the core area, will be relocated to the central axis of the northern area as a whole, doubling in size.

The western half of the area is a residential area. In addition, the three buildings of the City God Temple, the Mazu Temple and the private school will also be moved to residential areas. Considering that the western area will be the hardest hit area, the courtyard where the Public Security Division and the Criminal Investigation Division work together will also be relocated to a residential area to maintain law and order in the territory.

In the future, residential areas will inevitably evolve into areas where the middle class and even the rich are concentrated. Because a large part of the people who live here are workshop owners or shopkeepers of major shops. They were the first inhabitants to grow with the territory and accumulate more and more personal wealth. Latecomers, it is difficult to surpass them.

The eastern half of the area is the commercial district. All major handicraft workshops will be relocated here. In accordance with the principle of proximity management, the Four Seas Bank, the Commercial Department and the Tax Department will all be relocated here. Compared with the current commercial area, the planned commercial area has been fully expanded by four times, which is enough for major workshops to expand their business scale.

After reading the county planning of the Construction Division, Ouyang Shuo couldn't help but be amazed. Hao Jiancheng, a young man, not only fully understood his intentions, but also did it more boldly and thoroughly.

According to this county plan, the territory will not need to be readjusted for a long time in the future. It is just a matter of filling in the corresponding areas little by little according to the existing plan.

Just when Ouyang Shuo was amazed by the planning of the Construction Division, Secretary Bai Nanpu walked in and said, "My lord, Director Xu is asking to see you outside the door. ”

Ouyang Shuo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Please let him in." ”

"Whoa!"

Xu Shuda rarely walked into Ouyang Shuo's office. This director of culture and education, Zhengyin Jinshi, will govern Lianzhou College in an orderly manner. Therefore, Ouyang Shuo rarely interfered in the work of the Department of Culture and Education.

"Your Excellency!" After Xu Shuda came in, he bowed to Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo nodded with a smile and gestured with his hand, "Shuda, sit!" ”

"My lord, my subordinate has a request, and I ask your lord to approve it." Xu Shuda got straight to the point.

"Please!"

"The subordinate requests that the chairs in the council chamber be removed." Xu Shuda said very solemnly, obviously this matter is very important to him.

Ouyang Shuo was stunned again, this was strange, and asked quietly: "Why?" ”

"As the level of the realm and your title rises, the majesty of the lord must be maintained at all times. If it is like before, everyone sits on a chair and deliberates, regardless of dignity and inferiority, it is against the etiquette system and inconsistent with the etiquette law. ”

Ouyang Shuo frowned, "Shuda, what do you mean, is it for everyone to stand?" ”

Xu Shuda shook his head and said, "If you provoke your subordinates and don't want your courtiers to stand and suffer, then you can follow the ancient system, arrange a low table in the council room, and everyone sit on the ground." ”

Ouyang Shuo was relieved.

Rites, in ancient society, occupied an important position. Among the six departments, the Ministry of Rites accounts for one of them, which can be seen. It is the basis of the Confucian "rule by virtue" and the basis of the rule of feudal rulers.

Confucianism attaches great importance to the role of etiquette in regulating people's behavior, and puts forward the slogan of "etiquette". Confucianism believes that if everyone abides by the norms of behavior that are in line with their status and status, they will be "divided by courtesy" and achieve the goal of "kings, ministers, fathers, sons" as Confucius said. On the contrary, if you abandon the ceremony and do not use it, you will "faint up and down if the ceremony is not good".

In order not to easily break this situation, Confucianism advocates a code of conduct of "each according to his own right": for the ruler, etiquette requires the king to follow the example of the ancients, like Yao Shunyu to govern the country and handle family affairs, from ruling the world by virtue to eating and changing clothes, there is a set of established procedures; For ordinary people, the number of various rituals is even more numerous: crown ceremony, evening ceremony, guest ceremony, funeral ceremony, etc., everything must be strictly performed in accordance with the etiquette. Confucianism is to achieve its education through such a comprehensive system of social norms.

As a player's territory, of course, it is impossible to completely copy this etiquette system. If nothing else, take Yingyu as an example, if she acts according to Confucianism, then she will not be allowed to come to the stage at all.

The system of Shanhai County was designed by Ouyang Shuo, and many places have borrowed from the modern knowledge system, which is incompatible with feudal society, and it is even more impossible to copy the Confucian set.

However, it is undeniable that rites can indeed play a positive role in maintaining the rule of the lord and maintaining the stability of the territory. The key lies in how to remove the dross of Confucian etiquette and take its essence.

Shanhai County has not set up a special agency to regulate and guide the behavior and etiquette of all strata in the territory.

At this time, the Department of Culture and Education, or Xu Shuda, was able to take the initiative to stand up and correct the impropriety. More importantly, being able to flexibly adjust according to Ouyang Shuo's values undoubtedly made Ouyang Shuo very pleased.

Ouyang Shuo looked at Xu Shuda with a smile and said, "Shuda, your proposal is very good, I approve it." The arrangement of the council hall will be entrusted to the Department of Culture and Education, and I will instruct the Material Reserve Department to cooperate with you. ”

"Whoa!" Xu Shuda was glad that he was undoubtedly lucky to be able to meet a lord who was good at admonishment. (To be continued.) )
