A Mysterious Journey Through the Shang Dynasty
Chapter 39 Staying together through thick and thin
With the efforts of Su Yao, Wan'er and others, the Shang Dynasty gradually got back on track. The border defenses became increasingly solid, the economy was developing steadily, and people's lives gradually had new hope.
Su Yao stood high in the palace, overlooking the entire city. The sun shone on the ancient buildings, creating a warm glow. Her heart was filled with emotion, recalling the hardships and difficulties along the way.
"Su Yao, what are you thinking about?" Wan'er's voice came from behind.
Su Yao smiled slightly and said, "I was wondering, we have come so far, how many challenges will be waiting for us in the future."
Wan'er walked to Su Yao, also looking into the distance, and said: "No matter how many challenges there are, we will face them together. We are no longer the helpless self we were before."
At this time, the wise men were also discussing the next plan. They believed that although the current situation of the Shang Dynasty was stable, they still could not be taken lightly. While developing, they should always be vigilant against potential crises.
"We should continue to strengthen supervision in various fields to ensure that everything is on the right track," said a wise man.
"At the same time, we must also focus on cultivating talents and reserving strength for the future of the Shang Dynasty," another wise man added.
Su Yao and Wan'er listened to the advice of the wise men and decided to take a series of measures. First, they strengthened the supervision of business activities. They sent special personnel to patrol the market and crack down on fraud and unfair competition.
In the market, there are all kinds of goods. Merchants are busy trading, with smiles on their faces. Su Yao and Wan'er shuttled among the crowd, carefully observing each stall.
"Look, the quality of the goods in this stall is very good." Su Yao said, pointing to a stall full of pottery.
Wan'er nodded and said, "Indeed, we should encourage such merchants and let them make greater contributions to the economic development of the Shang Dynasty."
They came to a stall selling cloth, and the stall owner enthusiastically introduced his products to them.
"Sir, these fabrics are made of the best materials and are of very good quality," said the stall owner.
Su Yao touched the fabric, felt its texture, and said, "Not bad, but the price must be reasonable, and the people cannot be cheated."
The stall owner nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, sir. We will abide by the regulations and trade fairly."
In addition to supervising business activities, Su Yao and Wan'er also focused on the cultivation of talents. They set up a school in the palace and invited learned people to teach. Many young people signed up, eager to learn knowledge and contribute to the future of the Shang Dynasty.
In the classroom, the sound of reading is loud. Students listen to the teacher's explanation carefully and take notes from time to time. Su Yao and Wan'er come to the classroom and feel very relieved to see the students are so serious.
"You must study hard and contribute to the prosperity of the Shang Dynasty in the future," Su Yao encouraged.
The students answered in unison: "Yes, sir! We will definitely live up to your expectations."
In the process of cultivating talents, Su Yao and Wan'er also focused on selecting talented people to serve as officials. They formulated a strict selection system and selected truly capable people through examinations and assessments.
A selection test is in progress. Candidates are sitting in the examination room, answering questions nervously. Su Yao and Wan'er are patrolling outside the examination room to ensure the fairness of the test.
"This exam must select truly talented people to inject new vitality into the development of the Shang Dynasty." Su Yao said.
Wan'er nodded and said, "That's right, we should give capable people the opportunity to display their talents."
With the implementation of various measures, the development of the Shang Dynasty became more stable. However, at this time, a sudden disaster struck.
Several days of heavy rain caused rivers to overflow and many places were flooded. People's houses were destroyed and crops were submerged in water.
"What can we do? We have lost our homes." one citizen cried.
After Su Yao and Wan'er learned the news, they immediately organized people to fight against the flood and rescue the people trapped by the flood.
At the flood fighting site, people were busy carrying sandbags, their clothes soaked with sweat. Su Yao and Wan'er also joined in and worked hard with everyone.
"Everyone work harder, we will definitely be able to defeat the flood." Su Yao shouted.
Wan'er also encouraged everyone: "Don't be afraid, we will get through this together."
After several days and nights of hard work, the flood was finally brought under control. However, the losses caused by the flood were enormous. Many people were left homeless and their lives were in trouble.
Su Yao and Wan'er decided to launch a disaster relief plan. They mobilized a large amount of food and supplies and distributed them to the people affected by the disaster. At the same time, they also organized people to help the people rebuild their homes.
During the disaster relief process, Su Yao and Wan'er personally visited every disaster-stricken family to understand their difficulties and needs.
"Don't worry, we will definitely help you through this difficult time." Su Yao said to an elderly person affected by the disaster.
The old man held Su Yao's hand gratefully and said, "Thank you, sir. You are really our lifesaver."
Wan'er also comforted them: "Don't be discouraged, we will work together and we will definitely make our lives better again."
Under the leadership of Su Yao and Wan'er, the people of Shang Dynasty united as one to fight the disaster brought by the flood. After a period of hard work, the disaster-stricken areas gradually recovered.
However, this disaster also made Su Yao and Wan'er realize that the development of the Shang Dynasty still faces many unknown challenges. They must always be vigilant and work hard to make the Shang Dynasty truly prosperous and strong.
In the days that followed, Su Yao and Wan'er continued to strengthen the management of all areas of the Shang Dynasty. They focused on agricultural production, encouraged farmers to reclaim wasteland and increase grain production. At the same time, they also actively developed commercial trade and conducted friendly exchanges with neighboring countries.
In the fields, farmers worked hard. They sowed, fertilized, and watered, looking forward to a good harvest. Su Yao and Wan'er came to the fields and communicated with the farmers to understand their needs.
"How's the harvest this year?" Su Yao asked.
The farmers smiled and replied, "Sir, this year's harvest should be good. We have followed your instructions and adopted new planting methods, and our grain production has greatly increased."
Su Yao said happily: "That's great. You must continue to work hard and contribute to the food security of the Shang Dynasty."
In terms of business and trade, Su Yao and Wan'er actively communicated and cooperated with neighboring countries. They sent envoys to establish friendly relations with other countries and conduct trade exchanges.
A caravan was about to depart for a neighboring country to trade. Su Yao and Wan'er came to the caravan to see them off.
"Please be careful and I hope you can bring back more wealth and friendship." Su Yao said.
The leader of the caravan replied respectfully: "Don't worry, sir. We will definitely fulfill our mission."
As time went by, the Shang Dynasty developed better and better. Su Yao and Wan'er also continued to grow in the process, and their feelings became deeper.
However, they knew that there was still a long way to go, and they would continue to move forward hand in hand and work hard for the prosperity of the Shang Dynasty.
