In short, it is to continuously expand outward and continuously improve productivity.

However, even if these problems are ignored, the handling of affairs in the south is more complicated, and You Hongyin is somewhat troubled by the various talents from aristocratic families who are flocking in.

It is impossible not to use people from aristocratic families, but how to use them is also a problem. People in the south may not accept the method of imperial examinations in a short period of time, and You Hongyin is worried about how capable those talents who rely on recommendations are.

If you are undecided, find Lu Yun.

Lu Yun strongly recommends his brother!

He is almost fed up with the many affairs now. The Zhou Kingdom is busy enough, and this majesty has taken over the Jin Dynasty quickly with great luck. Even if there are still a few isolated states and counties that have not yet surrendered, this has also made him busy enough.

Now the Zhou Kingdom can be said to be extremely short of talents.

When he first came to the north, the continuous replenishment of officials had exhausted the talents cultivated by Qingzhou Academy for many years. Now it is impossible to squeeze them again, so the only choice now is to select officials in the south.

There is a reason why Lu Yun recommended Lu Ji.

Lu Ji's connections among the gentry are not comparable to Lu Yun's. His brother had served as an official in Dongwu, although the time was short. Later, he lived in seclusion in Jiangdong, but his literary reputation spread all over the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has close friends in all the southern counties for so many years.

If someone else was the emperor, Lu Yun would never recommend his brother. You must know that once his brother really recruited many officials through his connections, it would be a threat to the emperor. However, Lu Yun understood that his monarch had already anticipated this situation. He knew how to choose for the good of everyone, and would never let the monarch and his ministers reach a dead end.

However, like the royal system, these titles are more of a manifestation of glory, which will have an impact on etiquette, status, etc., but there is no real power. However, people, all they want is face.

Lu Ji served as the Minister of Personnel, and began to recommend, evaluate and promote talents from all sides for the court, establish corresponding systems, and supply a large number of officials to the Zhou Kingdom.

This process was a game between You Hongyin, the noble families and the poor families. The noble families naturally did not want to be overtaken by the poor families, but the emperor attached more importance to the imperial examination. In the end, both sides took a step back, the imperial examination could be promoted, and the method of selecting talents by evaluation continued to operate.

And You Hongyin believed that with the passage of time, this evenly matched situation might change. It all depended on who could adapt to the changes of the times and the world.

In the sixth year of An Ning, the eldest prince was named the crown prince, and the world gradually entered a peaceful state.

And the isolated states soon could not hold on, starting with Ningzhou. A pseudo king of the Sima family in Ningzhou chose to surrender, and You Hongyin was forced by the ministers to hold a "abdication" ceremony because of this.

Chen Xiquan also said that whenever he felt that this group of nobles was very smart, he didn't know where they would suddenly come up with a foolish idea.

The second is Guangzhou, which is as far away as it can be. To be honest, the government team there has gone through several regimes, and the leaders have basically died. There are probably only a few small figures who have found a chance to survive and are still supporting it.

Now that the world is unified, they immediately sent people north, intending to lean on the big tree for shade. The reason why their speed lags behind Ningzhou is that their surrender does not mean that Zhou can deal with Guangzhou. Many local forces control their own territories. Zhou even mobilized troops to sort out Guangzhou before it can really take Guangzhou.

Then Wang Dun died of illness and Jingzhou returned.

At this time, the entire Jin Dynasty territory only had the very distant Liangzhou and Pingzhou, the self-contained Yizhou, and Liangzhou, which was occupied and established by the Qiang people, still independent.

But these are no longer important. The territory in hand is so vast that people don’t know how to govern it.

In the 12th year of Anning, the world was peaceful for a long time. It seemed that something had accelerated the pace. In the blink of an eye, ordinary people who had no food to eat during the war had become well-fed and well-clothed, and they all knew some words and arithmetic.

It was probably in the fourth year of Anning that the Royal Bank came into everyone's sight at some point, and the new currency gradually circulated in the market and daily life.

The conventional currency was still copper coins, but the copper coins were not pure copper, but mixed with other metals, which were not easy to counterfeit. After melting, they could not be used to make other things. This currency was really used as money, not for other purposes.

However, whether it was using currency or using silk, food and other things, it was always inconvenient to carry when conducting large-scale trade. At this time, the large amount of Jiaozi from the Royal Bank spread among merchants.

This kind of Jiaozi itself was not easy to counterfeit. The printing and manufacturing processes were all state secrets, and there were special formats and numbers, so it was very safe to use.

Because of the emergence of the bank, the commercial activities of the Zhou Dynasty prospered unprecedentedly.

Now, those who have experienced the war feel that the suffering they once experienced has long become like a dream in their previous life, and that life today can be described as a prosperous and peaceful era.

In the 27th year of Anning, You Hongyin, who was highly praised both by the people and the government, resolutely chose to abdicate. The 25-year-old Tai
