The most arrogant in history

Chapter 460 This is called professionalism!

Liu Ai still didn't believe it, and asked Ye Kun for confirmation: "When the King of Han comes to Chang'an, Chengdu, or Jinling to rule the world, will he also stay in an inn?"

"Can't I stay in the inn?"

Ye Kun smiled: "If we build a palace just for the emperor, and build palaces all over the country, wouldn't it be a waste when the emperor doesn't live there? It would be great to have a shared post house. The emperor can live there, merchants can live there, and ordinary people with money can live there too."

In later generations, there are many presidential suites in large hotels and holiday villas.

Following the model of later generations, Ye Kun built post stations in major cities, which was convenient for both himself and others.

Otherwise, building palaces everywhere would be a waste of money and manpower.

Liu Ai smiled bitterly and said, "When I was in the countryside, I heard that the King of Han was devoted to the people, but I thought it was a lie. Now that I see the new city of Chang'an, I know..."

Ye Kun pointed to the inner city of Chang'an:

"I have also issued an order that all government offices in major cities, except for private residences, must allow the public to enter. Private residences are not allowed to be built into palaces. All buildings and palaces must serve the people."

Liu Ai nodded: "I know why the King of Han won the world."

"Let's go into the various departments in the inner city and take a look."

Ye Kun smiled and led everyone into the governor's general affairs building.

The building has three floors.

The first floor is the office windows of various departments, which are designed according to the service window model of later generations.

There are waiting areas and service areas.

There are chairs in front of the window where people can sit and communicate with officials face to face.

The second floor is the information room and archives room.

The third floor is the meeting room, supervisor's office and rest room.

The working hours are eight hours a day, with two days off every ten days.

The traditional yamen lobby of the past has been completely abolished, and only the Ministry of Justice retains the original yamen lobby to show majesty and intimidate people.

Wen Qi took everyone to visit his office in Xincheng and said with a smile: "My office is only four rooms, which is much worse than the previous governor."

Ye Kun sat down in Wen Qi's seat and said with a smile, "This is good, it's close to the people."

Behind the Governor’s General Affairs Building is the Governor’s residence.

That is, a large courtyard with three entrances and no tall buildings.

Wen Qi said: "This is the governor's residence, and it is also temporary. Once the governor is transferred, this residence will be handed over to the next governor."

The buildings of other departments are similar, and everything is simple and plain.

In addition to the official offices, there are two guard posts on the east and west sides, where security troops are stationed to maintain order.

Outside are schools and hospitals.

The school hospital is also a three-story main building, with some two-story supporting buildings.

The hospital is the cleanest, neatest and brightest.

It uses a lot of white tiles and a lot of window glass, making it look magnificent and much more advanced than the Governor's General Affairs Building.

Liu Ai asked: "I heard that there is Tiangong University in Yizhou. Is it the same?"

"Tiangong University is more impressive than this."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "We don't have money now, and the population is not large. The productivity can't keep up, so we can only do this. The planned population of Chang'an New City is one million. Our design requires at least eight large hospitals, two universities, ten middle schools, and thirty primary schools.

Four large commercial centers, twelve markets... all of these will have to be done slowly."

"One million? Is there such a large population?"

"In at most twenty years, Chang'an City will recover its population of one million." Ye Kun is very confident.

In recent years, the health care industry has been vigorously promoted and the population of Yizhou has almost doubled.

Looking at the whole country from Yizhou, we can understand the trend of population growth.

Moreover, Qin Erwu, Wang Meng, Song Poliu and others are constantly inviting young and middle-aged people from other ethnic groups in Jiaozhi to come to China to participate in the construction.

So, this is already on the eve of a population explosion.

Wen Qi continued to report on his work: "The hospital has already started trial operation, and after the new year, the new school will be able to recruit students.

In half a month, the construction of residential houses outside the inner city will start. The first phase will be 8,000 residential houses, all neatly planned. Every well, every stove, every toilet has a fixed location..."

Ye Kun was overjoyed when he heard this and praised Wen Qi highly.

This is what urban planning should be like!

Wen Qi added: "In order to prevent the groundwater pollution from getting worse, we have also built a large number of public toilets along the sewer lines. Toilets are installed in the toilets, and this part of feces can be transported out through special passages and city gates for agricultural production. However, we need to recruit some special cleaners and transporters."

“See, this is called professionalism!”

Ye Kun smiled at everyone and said, "Everyone should learn from Master Wenqi's professionalism and forward-looking vision. We should have a long-term vision and see a thousand years into the future. That's the big picture!"

Wen Qi was very modest and smiled, "These were all planned by the King of Han and other craftsmen. I just executed and perfected them."

During the two-day inspection in Xincheng, Ye Kun convened a meeting of nine ministries and a meeting of officials from various departments in Chang'an to analyze and correct problems.

Wen Qi gave everyone a vision of the future of Chang'an City, and when he talked about the exciting parts, he received applause from the audience.

Ye Kun added: "There are still some small cities around Chang'an that need to be built and renovated. We need to treat the entire western region as a chessboard and develop it as a whole. We should use Chang'an to drive the development of the Hexi Corridor and the entire western region...

I still say the same thing, provide food, people and money, and make sure things are done well."

In fact, the imperial court still has little money, but there is enough food and meat.

Plenty of coal and steel!

Other materials are also abundant and can support large-scale construction.

Sang Buyi asked Ye Kun if he wanted to go to Hexi area again.

Liu Ai said, "King of Han, your inspection here will only delay Lord Wenqi's work. It is better to return early so that Lord Wenqi can focus on building Chang'an."

Ye Kun rolled his eyes: "I'll listen to you this time. There are still some plans. After we discuss and approve them, I will go to Chencang and Tianshui to take a look, and then return to the Central Plains."

Ye Kun felt relieved that Wen Qi was in charge in Chang'an.

That night, Ye Kun stayed in the inn in Chang'an New City.

Although it is called an inn, the conditions are actually very good.

It can be considered a five-star hotel and presidential suite.

Tonight, Ye Kun accompanied Wen Axiu to sort out documents and talk about family property.

Late at night, the two of them rested, Wen Axiu snuggled into Ye Kun's arms and whispered:

"My husband, it is because of your care that I am where I am today, and my father is where he is today... We were stranded on Xiping Mountain, unable to live or die. Thinking about it, it is still a nightmare."

"A Xiu, why do you still remember what happened so many years ago?"

Ye Kun comforted Wen Axiu: "In my eyes, you are a pure and innocent woman, just like Yourong and the others. You are now the wife of the King of Han, and it won't be long before you become the imperial concubine. Forget about the past."

"I've almost forgotten it. I just had a momentary feeling about it tonight."

Wen Axiu nodded and said with a smile:

"Wei Caiqin has told me several times that women should be allowed to divorce their husbands who are not doing their best. Some women are often beaten by their husbands and cannot leave even if they want to. Principal Ye, do you think this can work?"
