Huangfulin had a sad face. He still had some leverage with His Highness King Qin. If he couldn't do it, then he would have great fun.
"Your Highness, this matter is not that easy. From now to the end of summer, there are only five months. The time is too tight. By the end of this year, we will definitely be able to do it." Duan Lun said simply, how could this happen? So easy. Although it is said that there is assistance from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, how can the investigation of this matter be so easy? There are so many prefectures and counties in the world. If you want to investigate one by one, how can it be completed in a short time?
"If someone completes it before the Beginning of Autumn, will the positions of you ministers be released?" Li Ke asked calmly.
"Your Highness, I don't think this matter should be so hasty. If it is too forced, some people may make up some data at will. If these data are not detailed, it will not be of much use, right?" Fang Xuanling hesitated for a moment and still decided. stood up.
Looking at Fang Xuanling who was speaking, Li Ke suddenly sighed.
Fang Xuanling didn't know what Li Ke was sighing for a while, but he could only express silence.
In fact, Li Ke didn't mean anything else, it was just a sigh that he had not adapted to for so many years. Even some people who are lying flat in modern times have a much faster pace than the ancients.
The efficiency of the ancients was really too slow. Except when the military situation was urgent, they were not in a hurry most of the time.
Maybe there are transportation and other restrictions, but in fact, not entirely.
"That's it. I can understand that you can't finish it, but I still give you this order. The Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Industry will work hard to do it. Before the beginning of autumn, I want to see how much you have done." Li Ke waved. He waved his hand and said nothing more.
"Yes." Duan Lun and Huangfulin hesitated before saluting. Li Ke didn't force the request, so they did their best.
"Duan Shangshu, have the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites discussed the location of the Tang National Martyrs Cemetery?" Li Ke changed the subject.
"At present, our location is in the south of Chang'an City, where a small mountain is located near Chang'an City. The peak there is not high, but it is connected to Taiyi Mountain (Houqin Mountains and Zhongnan Mountain), about 10 miles away from Chang'an."
"Servant Chang, give me the map." Li Ke waved.
Chang Lin brought over a map of Chang'an prepared by Li Ke in advance. This map was also drawn by Li Ke according to the layout of Chang'an based on the maps of later generations.
"Circle it for me." Li Ke said.
After Duan Lun got the map, he was also surprised. The map was too detailed. Although he didn't know how His Highness did it, he roughly determined the location after a little comparison, and he pointed it directly to Chang Lin.
Chang Lin came back with the map and pointed it out to Li Ke.
Li Ke glanced at it, went directly into the warehouse, and then compared it with the map of Xi'an. He knew roughly where it was.
It was probably near Chang'an Park in Xi'an in later generations.
After thinking for a while, Li Ke nodded and said: "Okay, let's finalize this location. It is a good place surrounded by mountains and rivers. The Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Industry will confirm the cultivated land of the people in this location, and then the entire hilltop will be Find out who owns the land. If there is common people's farmland on the hilltop, then replace it. I'll give you five days."
"Yes!" This was not difficult, and Duan Lun agreed quickly.
"Okay, I will let people build a concrete official road directly from Mingde Gate in this direction. Then the square of the Monument to the Heroes of the Tang Dynasty will also be placed outside Mingde Gate, just to the left and right of Yuanqiu." Li Ke He spoke.
"Yes." No one had any objections.
In addition to these things, Li Ke began to arrange various soldiers for the six departments, such as the Ministry of War, and asked them to take out the data of all the soldiers who had won honors, as well as the data of the soldiers who died, etc.
Although the Ministry of Personnel seems to have little task, Li Ke puts a lot of pressure on them, requiring the Ministry of Personnel to appoint all officials as soon as possible, especially some who are delayed in Chang'an City and have not taken up their posts, and some departments are short of officials. The status of officials and other officials will be resolved as soon as possible. In addition, officials will be recommended and selected for the positions of the princes.
This matter is not that simple, especially for those positions held concurrently by princes, and being an official must take into account many relationships.
After Li Ke completed the arrangements, everyone had a bitter look on their faces. These things are not that simple. Although these tasks are the responsibility of the Sixth Department, the Sixth Department is affiliated with the Shangshu Province. These senior officials of the Shangshu Province No one can have any leisure time. The minister is busy and the subordinates can't have any leisure time.
"Okay, do you have anything else to say?" Li Ke then waved his hand and asked everyone to start the memorial.
Many people looked at each other and fell silent in the end. Some people originally wanted to submit a memorial, but after Li Ke arranged the task, they felt that they would not be able to bring up their trivial matters now. Many people stopped talking.
"Your Highness, I would like to ask you something about the Evernight City of the Tang Dynasty." Changsun Wuji hesitated and said.
"Changsun Sikong, please speak." Li Ke looked calm.
"Your Highness, I have only heard about the Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty, but such a large new city was built next to Chang'an City. If the brothels and other industries in Chang'an City are transferred out, will the East and West Markets in Chang'an City still be there? Is it necessary to exist? After all, there can’t be only entertainment industry in it, there are also industries such as restaurants.”
"If the transfer is rash, the restaurants and inns in Chang'an City will inevitably fall into a state of loss. Will the people complain a lot?" Changsun Wuji asked, cupping his hands.
"Which commoner can open a restaurant and inn?" Li Ke didn't bother to hide anything, but directly made the topic clear.
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Ministers: "..."
It doesn't make sense for you to say that. It's something that everyone knows, but you can't say it so directly.
"Do the owners of these inns and restaurants have any objections? I don't think so. It's not like Datang Evernight City won't let them continue to open there. Of course, if you want to open a shop there, you need to buy land. Even brothels, goulan and other industries don't want to open there. Your Highness will not force you."
"Let me just say it bluntly. In this city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty, there are people who are willing to buy land. For example, if some brothel owners want to buy land and move in, that's a good thing. If they don't want to move in, it doesn't matter. They can stay. Where we are now." Li Ke waved his hand lightly.
"If Changsun Sikong still doesn't understand what I say, then I will say it more bluntly." Li Ke sat up straight with a faint smile on his face. There are some things that I make it impossible for you to start with. .
