The First Tyrant of Daxia

Xiao Yuxiang couldn't bear it and turned her head away, her eyes red. She felt uncomfortable even when she hit her cousin.

But she knew that this was right!

She also knew that Qin Yun was already showing respect by doing it himself. If he handed it over to the Ministry of Justice, he would probably have his hands and feet cut off.

So, she didn't beg for mercy, but just wiped her tears secretly.

Outside the Yangxin Hall.

No matter the imperial guards or the palace maids and eunuchs, they could all hear Xiao Jing's heart-wrenching screams and the sound of Qin Yun's whipping.

Accompanied by roars.

"You bastard, I told you to keep it secret!"

"You'll be blinded by money!"

"I will personally enforce the law today and beat you to death, you bastard!"

Everyone shrank their necks and shuddered at the sound.

At the same time, there was a hint of awe on his face.

His Majesty is so powerful that he treats everyone the same. Even the Queen's cousin and the people of the Xiao family who made mistakes are treated so harshly and mercilessly.

It really treats everyone equally!

I don’t know how long he was whipped and beaten.

Xiao Jing was already dying, with his skin torn and flesh exposed, with not a single intact part of his body, when Qin Yun dropped the jade belt.

"Someone, take him to the doctor!"

"If he survives, it's his luck. If he doesn't, it's his own fault!"

"Have the Ministry of Justice seize all his personal property and put it into the national treasury. If he is not dead, imprison him for six months."

He panted, "Impartial and impartial!"

"Yes!"

Tao Yang and other personal guards quickly stepped forward and carried the man down. They found that he was still breathing, so they did not dare to delay and quickly sent him to the hospital.

Even these imperial guards felt their scalps tingling when they saw people being beaten so badly!

Your Majesty, you really don't hold back!

afterwards.

The news that Qin Yun personally beat Xiao Jing half to death spread out, causing numerous shocks.

"What? The young master of the Xiao family who is doing business in the imperial capital was beaten half to death by His Majesty? He is the cousin of the Queen!" a wealthy businessman exclaimed!

"Yes, His Majesty won't let go of such a strong relationship. We have to be careful!"

"Everyone, do you think His Majesty is sending out some kind of signal? Xiao Jing was beaten because the goods were defective!"

"Tsk, what does it have to do with us? Xiao Jing was beaten because he betrayed the court. We didn't do anything wrong, so there's no way we'll be affected!"

After dealing with Xiao Jing, Qin Yun comforted Xiao Yuxiang. She was very understanding and had no complaints. She even felt very guilty!

He said that he would revoke the positions of all Xiao family’s relatives.

Qin Yun comforted her for a long time before she felt at ease.

He then quickly summoned relevant ministers and held a meeting.

"What, Your Majesty, you want to redefine the business rules of Daxia?!"

"Are we rushing into this? The land restriction order hasn't even been completed yet, and now we're going to restrict businesses?"

"Business is different from agriculture. If business makes radical reforms, it will probably bring endless disasters."

"Besides, Daxia's trade has always been good, there have been no problems!"

There were constant voices of surprise and doubt, and the ministers were whispering to each other.

Qin Yun frowned and said, "First, restrictions on business and restrictions on land do not conflict."

"Secondly, the restrictions on commerce I mentioned are not to reshuffle the market, but to break up this stagnant trade and make it healthy!"

"Although Daxia's trade is considered normal, it is this normality that conceals its shortcomings and pathologies!"

"Xiao Jing's incident reminded me that if the market does not set a threshold, inferior products will flood the market, and our nation's industry, handicrafts and other technologies will stagnate!"

“Only by raising the standards can we raise our pursuits and thus improve the creativity of the entire nation…!”

Everyone was stunned, as if they were listening to a foreign language.

But as Qin Yun's speech progressed, their expressions gradually became solemn, and then they suddenly realized.

Finally, a look of shock appeared!

Your Majesty has such high attainments in domestic affairs!

Novel words, novel ideas, but when you combine them into one, you’ll be able to create something magical!

Gu Chuntang and the others looked at each other, so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time!

"Your Majesty's idea is truly earth-shattering and awe-inspiring!" Guo Ziyun said excitedly with a flushed face.

From the initial opposition attitude, it turned into agreement and admiration.

"That's right!"

"If you stipulate that a product must meet certain standards, it can indeed curb the production of inferior products."

"In the long run, the commerce of the entire Daxia will be completely renewed!"

As they spoke, the eyes of all the ministers turned red and they gradually became excited!

It’s as if I saw the future of Daxia’s commerce, with hundreds of boats competing and flowers blooming!

The old hearts were completely activated by the ideas proposed by Qin Yun.

Seeing their rosy faces and youthful appearance, Qin Yun couldn't help but smile.

I thought that this consciousness and knowledge, which would only appear thousands of years later, actually resonated with people in the current Daxia Dynasty.

Beforehand, he was still worried that business was a lowly profession and would not be taken seriously by the ministers. Now it seems that he was worrying too much.

"In that case."

"Then pass on my order to set up another department, the Commerce Department, to be in charge of Daxia's commerce supervision. In addition to the head of the department, the rest of the candidates will be selected from the six departments."

"Gu Chuntang, you will host it."

"As for the specific supervision principles and punishment standards, I will draft them myself."

Everyone was in high spirits, their eyes full of awe.

They knelt down and said in unison: "We obey your command, Your Majesty is wise!"

"The glory of Daxia will surely surpass that of our predecessors!"

Listening to the roar and feeling the admiring looks from all directions, Qin Yun couldn't help but smile.

I have unique advantages. If I can do more for this era, I will do more!

He himself also fell in love with this feeling.

Soon, a notice restricting business was issued by the imperial court.

the next day.

On the main street of the imperial capital, people gathered around the notice and kept discussing it.

"What does this Commerce Department mean?"

"It is a position. I heard it is on par with the Meteorological Department, second only to the Sixth Department."

"Hiss... Such a high-ranking official? Wouldn't the director be a third-rank official at the beginning? Who has such good luck?"

"It has not been decided yet. I heard that the director will be appointed by His Majesty himself to supervise the world's commerce and set standards."

"..."

in the crowd.

"Miss Su Yan, we have bought the things, it's time to go back."

"What's wrong?" asked a maid.

Su Yan shook her head gently: "Nothing, I'm waiting for you, let's go back home."

"kindness!"

The two left together.

But Su Yan's beautiful eyes flickered, she turned around and took a deep look at the notice, thinking silently in her heart, "The Commerce Department?"

Being in charge of all the commerce in the world, his power is enormous, far more important than a hundred thousand soldiers.

Three days later.

The team of the Department of Commerce has been basically formed, but the position of director has not been decided yet.

Qin Yun originally wanted to let Guo Ziyun take charge of both positions, but considering his advanced age and the busy work of the Ministry of Revenue, he had to give up.

In other places, it is impossible to find a satisfactory candidate who can take office immediately.

Qin Yun walked out of the imperial study room feeling depressed and irritable.

Walking around aimlessly and thinking about the issue of personnel selection.

Outside the palace, roses climbed out of the courtyard wall, lush and green with a few small grasses.

Under the sunlight, it looks particularly vibrant.

At this time.

The sound of reading aloud could be heard.

A sense of righteousness comes over you, making you sigh in admiration.

Qin Yun was quickly awakened by it, and when he came to his senses, he was standing in a corner of the palace that even he was not familiar with.

Puzzled, "What is this?"

"Why haven't I been here?"

Elder Feng stepped forward and said softly, "Your Majesty, this is the Imperial Academy."
