When Su Yonglin planned the new Zhongdu, he planned it according to the triple city approach.
That is to say, the whole city is divided into three parts: the outer city, the inner city, and the palace city. The palace city is at the innermost part. The inner city wraps the palace city, and the outer city wraps the inner city, forming a ring-by-ring plan.
The palace city is located in the middle of the entire central capital city, on the central axis, which completely meets the needs of Su Yonglin's mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. Here is the original Jin Kingdom Palace.
The first half was used for the emperor and his ministers to discuss government affairs, and was also the seat of important central court departments and used for decision-making. The second half was the emperor's home, the so-called three palaces and six courtyards.
The inner city is where the storage and service departments of some important institutions are located. It is where the service departments and officials work after the imperial court makes decisions.
For example, the Yamen Group of the Ministry of Industry, which gathers the most important technologies in the world and is most favored by Su Yonglin, is located in the inner city closest to the palace city. The technologies that need to be kept secret are hidden here.
Except for the dangerous firearms research and development department, which is located in the mountains outside Zhongdu City, all other latest technology research and development departments are located here, and all technicians live here. The place where they live is heavily guarded and has a level of confidentiality high.
Su Yonglin will never let the great outflow of technology from the Tang and Song Dynasties appear under his nose again. He must form technological advantages to the outside world and actively build technical barriers. Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty take the lead and gain advantages everywhere.
For example, don't even think about taking the initiative to teach outsiders the latest and practical science and technology.
That's simply supporting the enemy! Pure support for the enemy!
Su Yonglin often crosses the gates of the palace city to go to the Yamen Community of the Ministry of Industry to see the latest technological developments. He knows about any good progress, keeps it in mind, and uses his own methods to help promote the development of these technologies, looking forward to the day when their original Accumulation can condense beautiful flowers.
Then there is the outer city, which covers the largest area. It is a large collection of living areas and commercial areas. Officials and ordinary people basically live here, but the location and settlement are different.
This is Su Yonglin's planned Zhongdu City.
What Zhelimu saw was actually not the final and complete version of Zhongdu City, but the Zhongdu City under construction. However, despite this, such a magnificent building was enough to shock people's hearts and demonstrate the grandeur and strong national power of a great country.
Walking along the stone streets of Zhongdu toward the palace city, what Zhelim saw was the order, the spirit of everyone working hard and living hard, and the strong smell of fireworks.
Of course, what's more important is that the air here is so fresh, it can even be said to be a little sweet, and there is no stinking smell that filled the outer city when he last arrived in Zhongdu.
He took a careful look at the streets in Zhongdu and found that the streets in Zhongdu were very clean. He did not see any domestic garbage, debris or other dirty things on the streets.
this……
"Zhongdu has become so clean. The last time I came to Zhongdu, Zhongdu was not that clean."
Zhelimu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He didn't expect Chen Guangyuan to be so emotional.
"Yes, the previous Zhongdu was not that clean. It was the changes made to Zhongdu after the Ming Emperor came to the throne. He said that the dirty environment would make people sick and cause plague. For the sake of the health of the people, it needs to be popularized in Zhongdu The toilet and garbage cleaning system, His Majesty the Emperor built extensive public toilets in Zhongdu, that’s... Now, that’s it.”
Following the direction of Chen Guangyuan's finger, Zhelimu saw a white building. People kept going in and people kept coming out of it.
"This is the toilet?"
"Yes, this is a public toilet. Everyone needs to use the toilet. If you are found casually defecating in the streets or spilling feces and urine on the streets, you will be caught and spanked in public. After the spanking, you will also be fined. "
Chen Guangyuan said with a smile: "Many people made mistakes in the beginning, so the Zhongdu County Government sent people to patrol the city twelve hours a day. After a month, thousands or hundreds of buttocks were swollen and fined. A lot of money, and then I never saw anyone urinating or spilling urine anymore, they all went to public toilets.”
Zhelimu nodded slowly.
"There's this thing, no wonder it's so clean."
"That's not all. The human waste collected through public toilets is taken to a fixed place outside the city for processing, and then it can be turned into manure. If the fertilizer is removed, the food grown in the second year will be better than the previous year. Years more.”
"Sounds good."
Listening to what Chen Guangyuan said about the Ming Dynasty's New Deal, Zhelim could basically tell that the Ming Emperor was not only very powerful in the military, but also very powerful in governing the country.
Everything I saw and heard was very novel, and everything was running in an orderly manner without any disorder.
Through such unremarkable daily life, Zhelimu believed that although the Ming Dynasty had just been established, there were no signs of instability at all, and it was quite stable internally.
His Majesty the Emperor is very powerful. The Ming Dynasty is very powerful and needs to be treated seriously.
When dealing with the Ming Dynasty, you must not show the slightest lack of dignity, making the Ming Dynasty feel offended.
In particular, some people in the ministry must suppress the idea of taking the opportunity to go south to plunder because they do not understand the Ming Dynasty.
Not to mention that the Ming Dynasty is stable, even if it is unstable, the cavalry on the border alone is enough to fight against the Tatar cavalry.
And if we offend the Ming Dynasty now, then the Ming Dynasty will directly go to the Kele tribe and the Qiyan tribe to attack the Tata tribe from the north and the south, wouldn't it be over?
The Ming Dynasty does not have any entanglements with the Kelie tribe and the Qiyan tribe, at least not yet. If they join forces with the Kelie tribe and the Qiyan tribe to deal with Tata'er, Tata'er will definitely be doomed.
The rule left by our ancestors is that the north and the south cannot be enemies at the same time.
Either be friends with the North or be friends with the South. At any time, one of the North and the South must be a friend, and both sides must not become enemies.
From the current point of view, the Ming Dynasty should of course be more friends. After all, the Tatar people just killed a leader of the Klei tribe not long ago. The two sides are in an extremely bad relationship and may fight at any time.
In addition, the leader of the Qiyan tribe, Ye Sugei, led his cavalry south to rob many times when the Jin Kingdom was still there. Although he did not take action for the time being after the establishment of the Ming Kingdom, it is hard to say whether he will do this again in the future.
Based on comprehensive judgment, Zhelim believes that the best outcome of this diplomacy should be that the Ming Dynasty is hostile to the two old rivals of the Central Plains dynasty, the Kelie tribe and the Qiyan tribe, and is good-faith towards the Tatar, Wanggu and other tribes. .
From the point of view of the Tatar people, it is indeed a pleasure to dominate the eastern part of the plateau with the help of the Jin Kingdom, and to be able to bully weak tribes at will.
That’s something to talk about.
After crossing the flat and long stone road in Zhongdu and passing through heavily guarded city gate towers one after another, Zhelimu's team finally entered the Zhongdu Palace City and were received and given a banquet by Su Yonglin at the Wanmin Hall, the main palace of the palace city.
After all, the other party came to pay tribute. Since they lowered their posture, Su Yonglin could not hold them back. He warmly entertained these people and invited all the civil and military officials of the court to attend the banquet.
Of course, formal negotiations will never take place in such a solemn occasion. Positive energy must always be promoted in solemn occasions. Formal negotiations are often filled with various fierce confrontations. Indecent behaviors such as slamming tables and benches are not uncommon and cannot be tolerated. Make it public.
Therefore, the most formal and critical discussions between the two parties are always in more private settings.
For example, in the study room where Su Yonglin usually handles government affairs.
After the grand banquet, Zhelimu was taken to Su Yonglin's study and met with Su Yonglin alone.
Zhelimu didn't find it strange that the Ming Emperor was so young and brave. Many leaders in their tribe also established their leadership positions through bravery at a very young age.
However, the emperor of the Han people was not just capable of being brave.
Zhelimu still knows this.
Therefore, Zhelimu had a faint respect for Su Yonglin.
"I'm quite surprised that you took the initiative to come to me. I thought the people from Wanggu's tribe should be the first to come to me, not you."
Su Yonglin spoke first, straight to the point, very direct.
