Chapter 355: Decision-making God's Favor

On the twenty-third day of the second month of the second year of Gaia, the third day of the first month. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the third day of the New Year, Ouyang Shuo's itinerary was still full.

In the morning, Ouyang Shuo summoned Fan Zhongyan and other three directors and Yongye County Commander Shen Chai.

In order to strengthen the rule over the grassland, it is necessary to establish cities in the grassland. It just so happened that the quota of the three second-level subordinate territories of the former Friendship County had not yet been used.

Ouyang Shuo's meaning is to establish the Shenjun City next to the Shenhuan Lake, the base camp of the Tianyan tribe. Then on the east and west sides of the grassland, build an acropolis.

Based on the three cities, the Divine Dependent's Mansion was formed.

In the future, the Shen's Mansion will be the largest of the prefectures in Lianzhou County.

Ouyang Shuo's favorite prefect candidate is Shen Chai.

Shen Chai has always been favored by Ouyang Shuo, with both the experience of the Material Reserve Department and the county commander, whether it is qualifications or ability, he is enough to serve as the prefect of the Divine Dependent's Mansion.

Unlike the other provinces, the Divine Families Mansion is almost completely poor, and everything has to start from scratch.

In the morning, Ouyang Shuo, together with the three directors, made a four-point plan for the development of the Divine Dependent's Mansion.

First, the herdsmen of various tribes were moved to settle in the three cities.

On the grassland, plus the Tianfeng tribe that had previously returned to Shun, there is a total of one large tribe and eight medium-sized tribes, and the total population is less than 130,000. After the battle of Lianzhou, after removing the soldiers killed in the battle and the cavalry units that received reorganization, the actual population of the grassland was less than 100,000.

The Divine Dependent's Mansion is vast and sparsely populated, and animal husbandry is its lifeline. The concentration of herders in the cities is to end the scattered and extensive grazing of herders and to form large pastures and farms for collective grazing.

Second, the construction of city walls.

In the future, the Shen's Mansion will be inhabited by various ethnic groups in the grassland and the Han people, and all ethnic groups will coexist. The prerequisite for building a city is to build a strong wall.

In this way, the advanced farming civilization of the Han people can be integrated into the nomadic civilization of the grassland.

There was neither wood nor stone in the steppe, which was a major test for the construction of the city walls. Fortunately, there is no shortage of laterite in the grassland, and there are enough conditions to build large-scale brick kilns.

The city walls of one city and two counties of the Divine Dependent's Mansion will be dominated by earthen city walls, and a layer of green bricks will be built on the outside.

The buildings in the city are also mainly brick structures, and at the same time take into account the characteristics of various ethnic groups in the grassland. Consideration could be given to setting aside an area within the city to allow herders to build yurts.

The convergence of the two civilizations is also a major feature of the future Divine Residence.

Similarly, it is also a big test for the prefect Shen Chai.

Ouyang Shuo even proposed that among the various ethnic groups in the grassland, people with both ability and political integrity should be openly selected to hold important positions in the government and county government that were about to be formed.

Even the nobles who are about to move to Shanhai City can also be reused as long as they have outstanding abilities.

The operation of the Divine Dependent's Mansion is inseparable from the support of all ethnic groups in the grassland.

This work needs to be completed by Shen Chase, coordinating with the Administration Department and the Home Affairs Department.

Of course, the selected officials are required to go to the Southwest University Hall for a period of three months or even half a year. Appointments can only be granted upon successful completion of the course.

Third, the development of grassland deep processing industry.

Animal husbandry is the foundation of the grassland, but it is not enough to support the economy of the gods. With the end of the battle of Lianzhou, the major chambers of commerce have set their sights on the vast grassland.

The furs and livestock that the herders had worked so hard to accumulate were bought cheaply by the merchants, and they were not worth it.

Ouyang Shuo, who has an excellent vision, will naturally not let the grassland grow wildly.

Deep processing is the opportunity and way out for the rise of the grassland.

Whether it is wool, leather, or cow's and goat's milk, it must be further processed on site. Wool can be woven into blankets, and leather can be made into leather boots or leather clothing.

Even goat's milk and mare's milk can be made into milk skins, cheese and other dairy products.

Fourth, protect the grassland ecology and maintain the growth environment of frog horses.

The future Divine Mansion's greatest contribution to the territory is to provide a steady stream of frog horses. Ouyang Shuo has elevated the cultivation of frog horses to the strategic level of the territory.

What Shen Chai wants to do is to gather the frog horses and stallions of all ethnic groups and build a large military horse farm near the beautiful Shenqi Lake.

The Shenqi Lake Military Horse Farm will surpass the Wind Valley Military Horse Farm and become the largest military horse farm in the territory.

In order to maintain the number of frog horses and protect the ecology of the grassland, it is imperative. All the development and construction of the Divine Dependent's Mansion must be based on the premise of not destroying the grassland ecology.

After setting the general direction of the Divine Dependent's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo no longer interfered in the deployment of the remaining personnel, materials and funds. Shen Chai needs to personally coordinate with the Administration Department, the Home Affairs Department and the Finance Department.

Before Shen Chai left, Ouyang Shuo handed him three Black Iron Grade Village Building Tokens.

These three tokens, without the use of fusion orders, were directly separated from the stone monument in Friendship City.

At this point, the village building tokens of the nine second-level subsidiary territories of Shanhai City have all been separated.

The three pieces of Beihai City were used in Tianfeng City, Yishui County, and Broken Blade City. The one in Friendship City was used to form the Divine Dependent's Mansion, and the three pieces in Swimming City were still lying in Ouyang Shuo's storage bag.

After dealing with the matter of the Divine Dependents' Mansion, it was already noon.

Ouyang Shuo left the study and returned to the apse for dinner.

"Brother, you're back!"

Bing'er had been waiting in the dining hall for a long time, waiting for the meal to start. After the little girl practiced the "Innocent Heart Sutra", other changes could not be seen, but the amount of food increased.

Ouyang Shuo didn't know anything about the "Innocent Heart Sutra".

All he can do is wait and see.

According to Shisu, in addition to three meals a day, Bing'er often eats some pastries. Sometimes, before the meal is served, I cry out that I am hungry.

But the little girl twisted her head again, and every time she had to wait for Ouyang Shuo to come back, she would eat together.

Ouyang Shuo was helpless, and he could only "get off work" on time every day.

After dinner, Ouyang Shuo returned to the room to take a nap.

In the afternoon, there is still an important political discussion waiting for him to preside, and Ouyang Shuo must recuperate.

**********

Two o'clock in the afternoon, the main hall.

Three major departments, twelve divisions, a total of fifteen chief officers, all of them are present.

Ouyang Shuogao sat on the head and presided over the first political meeting of the Hou Mansion after the year.

I don't know when the word "deliberation" has become a thing of the past, and it has been replaced by "political deliberation".

The difference between the words is not the same.

The word "government" in political discussion represents the regularization of the civilian and official groups in the territory, and the right to speak and the status have been further enhanced, and it has truly become the other pole of the two poles of the military and the government.

At the same time, it also declares that the authority of Ouyang Shuo, a prince, is growing day by day.

The word political discussion divides Ouyang Shuo, the lord, and the civil official group of the territory into two classes.

Ouyang Shuo, exclusive one layer. Under it, there is the civilian-bureaucratic group.

Compared with the previous territorial discussions, there are two significant changes in the political discussion.

One is that there is a growing number of tasks that require coordination between various departments and agencies. With the expansion of the scale of the territory, some territorial affairs can no longer be solved by a certain department or even a certain agency.

For example, the matter of "building the road network of Lianzhou County", which is now being discussed, involves at least three main departments: the Construction Department, the Audit Department, and Sihai Qianzhuang.

The Construction Department is responsible for road planning and design, the Audit Department is responsible for reviewing the project budget, and Sihai Qianzhuang is responsible for fund allocation and financial transfer.

In addition to the three main departments, the other divisions are also involved to a greater or lesser extent. For example, the setting up of post stations along official roads involves the Department of Culture and Education and the Department of Public Security.

In addition, the government offices and county offices along the official road are also involved.

Not to mention, there are hundreds of settlements along the route. Which settlement the road passes through and from which settlement it does not pass is not a simple mathematical problem.

The complexity of the affairs is no longer imaginable in the town and county period.

This is not only a test for the divisions, but also a huge test for the three administrators. Fortunately, whether it is Fan Zhongyan or Tian Wenjing, they are both giant-level players, and they can still be proficient.

It is precisely because of the complexity of the affairs that the interests in them are intertwined.

When discussing politics, Ouyang Shuo spent most of his time being a listener and would not take a stand easily.

And this is the second change in political discussion.

Ouyang Shuo gradually completed the transformation of his role.

Begin to move from a participant to a pure decision-maker.

Unless it involves a major strategy of the territory, under normal circumstances, Ouyang Shuo will ask each department to come up with a handling opinion or a clear plan, and will not take the initiative to guide the work of each department.

In this way, the powers of the three administrators have been dramatically enhanced.

Their role positioning is also undergoing a transformation.

In the previous discussions, Ouyang Shuo usually sang the leading role. Whether it is Fan Zhongyan or Cui Yingyu, they play the role of an executor.

The light of Fan Tian and the others was completely covered by Ouyang Shuo's huge back, and their sense of presence was extremely low.

Now, they are the real giants and have great decision-making power.

For Fan Zhongyan and Tian Wenjing, the stage to display their own talents has just begun.

In the future, the two will lead a department, and what kind of dazzling brilliance will burst out on this stage?

Everything is only left to the test of time.

And for the directors of the divisions, life is a little difficult.

Rights and responsibilities have always coexisted.

While Ouyang Shuo gave more power to the departments, the departments naturally needed to assume greater responsibilities. Directors, if the interests of the territory are damaged due to mistakes in decision-making, they naturally need to be held accountable.

If it is light, the grade will be lowered in the year-end evaluation. If it is heavy, it will be necessary to adjust the position.

Among the twelve directors, there are three or four, and their positions are not stable. They have a common characteristic, that is, they all rise in recklessness, coupled with limited qualifications, they are naturally tested.

The current Director of the Department of Household Registration Du Quan, the Director of Taxation Qian Lifei and the Director of Industry Du Xiaolan are the three positions that are the most unstable.

As long as the time is ripe, Ouyang Shuo will send them to the government office.

As for Qin Shijian, director of the examination department, Sun Yannong, director of the Department of Agriculture, and Hao Jiancheng, director of the construction department, these three are still in the inspection stage.

The remaining six directors, both in terms of ability and experience, are relatively outstanding and have no worries for the time being. (To be continued.) )
