A diligent ruler

"It's alright. Although the grade is a bit high, it's all for absorption anyway, and it can also give the Yin God of various Underworld Administration some goals."

Fang Weiyan was aware of the distinction between different ranks of Incense Offerings.

If Yin God's cultivation level is high, low-grade Incense Offerings will not be enough to further increase their cultivation.

Therefore, in some countries with relatively weak national strength, the power of the Yin God is not very high.

It can be said that national strength directly determines the upper limit of Yin God cultivation.

Right now, Fang Weiyan has taken out purple-grade Incense Offerings, which will allow the Yin God from all over the world to know that although the Jiang Kingdom is still weak, it has something that can tempt them.

At the very least, they will no longer be constrained by their weak national strength and unable to improve their own power.

Seeing Fang Weiyan's response, Yunxi thought for a moment and then refrained from saying anything more.

"Take the Incense Offerings and refine it first, then inform the Underworld Administration in various places so they know about this."

With purple-grade Incense Offerings in hand, once the Underworld Administration in various regions find out, they will surely work even harder in the future.

"Good."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi nodded immediately, indicating that she understood, and then turned and left.

There are quite a few demons in Yanhuai City. She really needs to refine the Incense Offerings as soon as possible and then find and kill those guys.

Yunxi turned and left. Fang Weiyan inquired and learned that most of the students had already arrived in Yanhuai City.

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan immediately ordered an exam to be arranged. The exam paper was prepared by Fang Weiyan, and it mainly consisted of a simple selection process.

Generally speaking, any student with even a modicum of intelligence can pass.

Once you pass the test, you can start the training immediately.

If these students spend some more time learning in the fields and factories during the training period, it shouldn't be a problem.

Several factories have been built in Yanhuai City, carrying out large-scale papermaking, cloth weaving, and other production.

After Fang Weiyan returned, he continued to plan the construction of Yanhuai City, and also began to plan the construction of other counties.

After that, send someone back and continue construction according to his ideas.

While Fang Weiyan was busy with these matters, the Dragon King came looking for him.

"If there's nothing else, I must return to continue my cultivation."

The Dragon King's main purpose in coming this time was to say goodbye to Fang Weiyan.

Now that things were over here, he naturally had to return to his Wu River.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan immediately took out a bag of white rabbit candies from the side. "These are Wu Ruichu's favorite candies. Give them to him; it's a small token of my appreciation."

Wu Ruichu had a particular fondness for this dish when they were in Pingjiang City.

Seeing that the Dragon King was about to leave, Fang Weiyan had nothing else to give him, so he could only offer him this.

"Thank you very much."

When the Dragon King saw the candy in Fang Weiyan's hand, he recalled that once before, his son had come home and was eating something similar, saying it was delicious.

Thinking of this, the Dragon King didn't stand on ceremony. He immediately waved his sleeve slightly, and the candy in front of Fang Weiyan disappeared.

Universe in the Sleeve...

Fang Weiyan felt a pang of envy upon seeing the Divine Ability the other party displayed.

The Dragon King knows this Law Technique, and Uncle Bai from Divine Farmer Valley also knew Law Technique before.

I wonder when he will be able to learn this ability.

After bidding farewell to Fang Weiyan, the Dragon King turned around and disappeared in a wisp of green smoke.

"Have Cheng Feng come here."

Fang Weiyan watched the Dragon King disappear, pondered for a moment, and then said something to the maid beside him.

Upon hearing this, the maid bowed slightly and responded softly. Then, facing Fang Weiyan, she slowly retreated towards the door before turning and leaving.

"We also need to set up a dyeing workshop. The colors and styles of clothes here are still too monotonous. As living standards improve, clothes will become a necessity."

Fang Weiyan noticed the maid's clothes, which, in his opinion, were not particularly attractive.

After setting up a dye shop, the colors on the clothes can be improved, and the clothes of the palace maids and guards also need to be redesigned.

It's at least the face of the Jiang Kingdom palace.

Fang Weiyan made a note of this matter and arranged for someone to do it later.

After Cultivation Method for the duration of a cup of tea, Cheng Feng was taken to the Imperial Study.

"Your subordinate greets Your Majesty."

Cheng Feng arrived at the Imperial Study and immediately knelt down to pay his respects.

Fang Weiyan looked at Cheng Feng in front of him and thought for a moment before saying, "You've been with me for quite some time now, and I trust you greatly. So I've decided to give you a task. Are you willing?"

Cheng Feng was one of the earliest people to follow him.

Having spent so much time together, I trust Fang Weiyan quite a bit.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Feng was overjoyed. This joy came from Fang Weiyan's mouth, which showed him great trust.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Feng felt an immense honor.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I am willing to go through fire and water for you!"

Cheng Feng calmed his excited emotions and then quickly spoke.

"In that case, select about a thousand trustworthy people and place them in various government offices. These people will help me monitor the actions of those officials and supervise their construction projects in different regions."

"You served me before, so you are somewhat familiar with the development of Linbei County and Pingjiang City. Do you understand?"

Since Fang Weiyan is stationed in Yanhuai City, there will inevitably be some oversight gaps in other areas.

So Fang Weiyan thought about it and decided that he should gather a group of trusted confidants to help him supervise various places.

We mustn't let those local officials hold us back.

"Your Majesty, if that's the case, it would be best to use the earliest batch of yamen runners from Jiangling Commandery, as they are competent for this task."

Cheng Feng thought for a moment after hearing this, and then spoke.

The earliest group of people had already had a basic understanding of their character during the selection process, and they had also worked together for a long time.

Therefore, this group of people can still be trusted.

Fang Weiyan thought about it after hearing this and felt it was a good idea.

"That's feasible. I'll leave this matter to you. As for their salaries, let's set them at 10 taels of silver a year for now. If you don't have enough manpower, you can recruit some more yourself."

This gives the other party a huge amount of power.

If the other party is willing, they can recruit all their relatives and friends.

They didn't usually have to do much; their job was simply to supervise officials in various regions.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Feng was overjoyed, knowing that this was a great power granted to him by the Emperor, and immediately kowtowed to express his gratitude.

"Yes, go and get this done. Students from all over have arrived in Yanhuai City, and they will soon be dispatched to their respective posts."

Fang Weiyan waved his hand, indicating that the other person could leave.

There are books A Friend of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talent," which are used in post-apocalyptic worlds for rapid reconstruction—a standard encyclopedia.

We'll give them a little training later, and once they meet the requirements, they can just take the books and start working.

If there's anything you don't understand, just pick up the book and open it.

It's similar to how, on Earth, when people encounter something they don't understand, almost everyone simply opens their phone and searches for it on a search engine.

The same applies here; if there's anything you don't understand, just open the book and you'll understand.

Once this group of students takes office, they can then carry out various construction projects, planting, and even livestock breeding.

In short, it contains all the information needed for post-disaster reconstruction.

Fang Weiyan opened the book and looked through it, and even he felt that the contents were incredibly comprehensive.

Cheng Feng accepted the order and left.

Fang Weiyan looked at the schedule and also checked the A Friend of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talent" to make sure he hadn't missed anything.

A moment later, the ministers of the Ministry of Works were summoned to the Imperial Study.

Fang Weiyan, A Friend of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talent, sent him more than ten copies of his book.

"Take a look at what's above."

Upon seeing that all the ministers of the Ministry of Works had arrived, Fang Weiyan immediately instructed them to open the document and take a look.

Upon hearing this, the ministers suppressed their doubts and quickly began to peruse the books in their hands.

After they had flipped through it for a while, their eyes widened in surprise.

The book contained information that had puzzled them in the past, but now it contained everything they needed to know.

After several ministers had read through it, their breathing became somewhat rapid.

"Emperor..."

A moment later, the ministers all raised their heads and looked at the emperor with disbelief.

They didn't know where the books came from.

However, one thing is certain: whoever obtains this book and masters its contents will easily become a second or third-rank official in the imperial court.

"Go back and study the contents recorded above carefully, and then apply them as soon as possible. I recall that there aren't many chickens, ducks, or fish raised in Yanhuai City."

"Yes, we understand."

Upon hearing Fang Weiyan's words, the ministers immediately responded, indicating that they understood.

Fang Weiyan nodded upon seeing this.

If it weren't for the fact that most people are illiterate, Fang Weiyan would have printed tens of millions of copies of this book and distributed them to everyone for free.

After all, ordinary people genuinely need to learn technologies such as animal husbandry, planting, soil identification, herbal medicine identification, and grafting of forest and fruit trees.

Once the weather gets colder, we can also set up greenhouses for cultivation.

"Alright, all of you may leave. I want to see Yanhuai City become more prosperous in your hands as soon as possible. If you fail to do so, don't blame me for settling scores later."

Fang Weiyan gave the people in front of him a meaningful look.

He hasn't settled some accounts from before.

The ministers of the Ministry of Works were terrified upon hearing this and immediately bowed their heads in agreement.

After leaving with trepidation, he hurriedly returned to his official residence.

They dared not continue to neglect the orders given by the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is a register of the Underworld Administration presented from Pingjiang City. Please take a look."

Just after the ministers of the Ministry of Works had all left, a booklet was presented to them by a maid.

"Speaking of which, Pingjiang City doesn't have a prefect yet..."

Upon hearing the Pingjiang City, Fang Weiyan thought of this matter.

Pingjiang City can't function without a prefect, and besides, there aren't many officials among the yamen runners.

Before he left, he appointed quite a few minor officials, so Pingjiang City should be functioning smoothly now, although the absence of a prefect and magistrate is somewhat of a disadvantage.

After all, if something goes wrong, there will be no one to handle it.

Jiangling Commandery is the best place he has governed since he took control of it, so we must stabilize the situation there.

The problem is that there's really no one available right now. Even if Fang Weiyan were to send someone to Pingjiang City, Fang Weiyan wouldn't know who to send.

Fang Weiyan reached out and opened the booklet, which was presented to him by Fude.

The first thing in the booklet was the hope that Fang Weiyan could find a new prefect for Jiangling Commandery, and also appoint a magistrate and other officials for the area.

Maintaining public order in normal times is still necessary.

Aside from that, Fude briefly explained the current situation in Pingjiang City.

So far, everything is fine in Pingjiang City, and the vegetables that have been planted are almost ready for harvest.

Once the harvest is plentiful, Pingjiang City will be able to achieve self-sufficiency.

That's why Fude urged Fang Weiyan to hurry up and have the governor of Jiangling Commandery come here.

After all, with such a large yield per acre, it would be bad if someone had ulterior motives once the harvest was complete.

As the saying goes, wealth can be a powerful motivator. With so many people arriving in Pingjiang City, there's no guarantee that nothing might go wrong.

"From among the students who have come, let us select a few of the best in character and send them to Jiangling Commandery."

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan decided to select a dozen or so students from among the scholars and assign them officials to take up their posts in Jiangling Commandery.

Once Cheng Feng's men arrive, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Fang Weiyan laid a solid foundation in Jiangling Commandery. As long as development proceeds step by step, Jiangling Commandery can become a major granary and production center for the Jiang Kingdom in the future.

Fang Weiyan glanced through Fude's booklet, then handed one to the other party.

Fude did a good job. Go back and check if Yunxi has finished absorbing the Incense Offerings. If not, reward Fude with some.

If it's all absorbed, then when Fang Weiyan goes to harvest the Incense Offerings next time, he should leave some for the other party.

This can be considered a starting point for the Underworld Administration in other places.

As Fang Weiyan finished his work and it gradually got dark, a huge candle was lit, illuminating the imperial study in every detail.

The maid carefully placed the lantern to avoid disturbing the emperor.

At that moment, Yunxi gracefully walked in.

"Your Majesty, it's time for your meal."

It was already dark when Yunxi heard that Fang Weiyan was still in the imperial study. Worried that Fang Weiyan Fang Weiyan to eat.

Upon arriving at the Imperial Study and seeing Fang Weiyan so diligent in his duties, Yunxi couldn't help but smile slightly.

She was naturally very happy that Fang Weiyan was so diligent in his duties.

At least Fang Weiyan wasn't the kind of emperor who, after becoming emperor, would start taking concubines and living a life of debauchery.

With the Jiang Kingdom in Fang Weiyan's hands, she could truly rest assured.

Next, all she needs to do is improve her cultivation level to ensure that the Jiang Kingdom will no longer be disturbed by demons.

As for matters within the Jiang Kingdom, they can all be handled by Fang Weiyan.
