Chapter 159

Qin Mu waves his hand.

The divine book placed under the stone statue slowly floats up, emitting a faint light.

Yan sees this scene.

His eyes widen instantly, and his breathing becomes rapid.

He understands that this means...

The god recognizes him!

"Please rest assured, god; I will definitely build an unprecedented and unparalleled huge empire!"

He clenches his fists and slowly takes the floating divine book.

He opens the first page of the divine book.

And sees the four characters "Book of Civilization".

"Book of Civilization? What is civilization?"

Like Ji back then 010.

Such a doubt also emerges in his mind.

Yan leaves the temple.

Returns to the palace.

That night.

He reads through the entire divine book.

"The knowledge in the divine book is too vast; it turns out that all the policies promoted by the late Emperor came from the divine book."

Holding the divine book, he murmurs to himself.

In the divine book.

He sees the various measures promoted by the late Emperor.

Official system, criminal law, agriculture, animal husbandry, city-states, horse taming, imperial roads, Art of War, etc.

In these aspects...

Ji has already done the best.

But what he is interested in is the "Chapter of Strange Objects" in the divine book.

In the Chapter of Strange Objects.

He even sees the refining method of the divine artifact that he researched himself.

"It turns out that the divine book had already explained the refining method of the divine artifact, but it's a pity that the late Emperor was addicted to other things and ignored this item..."

Yan's eyes flicker.

Actually.

If the late Emperor hadn't ignored this item, he wouldn't have had the chance to usurp the throne by forging the divine artifact!

After pondering for a night.

The next day at court.

Facing all the ministers, he promulgates a series of political decrees.

"First, promote the status of craftsmen; from today on, the Ministry of Works is the head of the six ministries!"

"Second, reform the military system, establish the Great Yan Imperial Guard, select capable people from all over the country to fill it, and equip them with new iron weapons!"

"Third, raise the status of men; men in the Great Yan State are the heads of the family, and children take their father's surname!"

"Fourth, encourage childbirth; those who give birth to one child can receive food or meat!"

"Fifth..."

With the promulgation of a series of political decrees.

In the Great Yan State, the matrilineal clan also gradually shifts toward the patrilineal clan.

The status of men has been significantly improved.

At the same time.

He was originally the Minister of Works.

Therefore, he attaches more importance to the Ministry of Works.

Often handing the content in the "Chapter of Strange Objects" of the divine book to the Ministry of Works for research.

Every time a major breakthrough is made, he gives generous rewards to the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works.

Gradually.

In the entire Great Yan State, the status of craftsmen is getting higher and higher.

Many people want to work in the Ministry of Works after they come of age.

Qin Mu, after seeing Yan's series of measures.

Reveals a satisfied smile.

Craftsmen are actually the original scientists.

They research various objects, which is invention and creation.

It's a pity...

Before he transmigrated, the ancient times on Earth did not attach importance to these craftsmen.

Even Ji did not attach much importance to craftsmen.

And Yan, who came from being the Minister of Works, after ascending to the throne, caused the status of the Ministry of Works and craftsmen to rise crazily.

It has a great promotion for the development of technological civilization.

Great Yan Year 2.

The second year after Yan usurped the throne.

In the palace.

Yan holds the latest report on strange objects presented by the Minister of Works and reveals an excited look.

"Cement, horseshoes, crossbows have finally come out!"

After he ascended to the throne.

He set these three strange objects in the divine book as priority research projects.

Lasting one year...

The Ministry of Works finally researched these three strange objects.

"Pass my decree, let the Ministry of Works and the workshops in various city-states mass-produce these three types of objects!"

"I want to pave the imperial roads of the entire Great Yan State with cement and let all horses wear horseshoes!"

"It is time to develop those wild areas!"

Yan takes a deep breath and looks at a huge world map behind him.

In the center of the world map is the range of the Great Yan State.

But outside the Great Yan State...

There are still many black areas that have not been marked!

And that boundless ocean!

"Step by step, first conquer the land, then conquer the sea!"

Yan clenches his fists, his eyes full of the desire for conquest.

One day...

He will fill in all these blank maps!

Under the sky.

As long as the sun shines, it is the territory of the Great Yan State!

Great Yan Year 3.

After a year of preparation.

All the main imperial roads of the Great Yan State are paved with cement.

Post horses wearing horseshoes pass through them, and the time taken is directly shortened by one-third!

And iron crossbows also arm all the Great Yan Army of the Great Yan State!
