Emperor Liu Hong

In Liu Hong's view, as an agricultural nation, the Chinese people lack the enthusiasm for adventure like Europeans.In addition, in order to manage the people well, the policies of the past dynasties have always encircled the people to their own one-third of an acre of land.In this way, it is even more impossible for the common people to go out to explore.

In Liu Hong's view, such a policy may be beneficial to the imperial court, but it will definitely be a disaster for the entire Han nation.Like the Huaxia of later generations, it has been repeatedly invaded by foreigners.In Liu Hong's view, this policy, even if it is not the chief culprit, is absolutely to blame.

Now, Liu Hong has undergone reforms, and there is no need to imprison the people on the land at all to ensure the safety of the dynasty.Therefore, he wants to solve this problem completely from the root.But now, the key to solving this problem falls on Fugui.

"Fugui, do you still remember the route of the continent you accidentally went to?!"

"Your Majesty, I remember, I remember!" Hearing Liu Hong's question, Fugui hurriedly said: "At that time, in order to find the original route, we drew a chart, and with the chart, we can go back easily! "

"That's good, that's good!" Hearing what Fugui said, Liu Hong felt relieved, "Fugui, let me tell you that you are definitely lucky to have discovered this continent. I will study it carefully. Research, how to reward you!"

"Your Majesty, you want to reward us?!" Hearing Liu Hong's words, Fugui's excitement was forgotten. "It is said that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing. I didn't expect that the blessing came so quickly!"

"It's necessary to reward you, and it's a big reward!" Seeing Fugui's excited look, Liu Hong was also very happy, but then.Thinking of Fugui's special mission, he asked, "By the way, Fugui, what about your mission to Rome? Did it succeed?"

"Your Majesty, you succeeded, you succeeded!" Fugui took out the two letters, handed them to Liu Hong, and said, "Your Majesty, I have not only succeeded, but also exceeded the task!"

"Oh, what is the method of overfulfilling the task?" After receiving the two letters, Liu Hong asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, that's what it is!" Fugui happily talked about the things he did in Europe.I told Liu Hong everything exactly.

I heard Fugui say that he not only succeeded in making the Roman emperor.Both the Roman prince and the Roman prince successfully smoked white powder.and.He also succeeded in getting the Roman emperor to agree to dredge the Suez Canal, and sold the white powder to the island of Great Britain. Liu Hong was so happy that he didn't know what to say.

"That's right, Fugui. You really overfulfilled the task this time!" Liu Hong patted Fugui on the shoulder excitedly, and said, "You wait for a few days, you can't see the light of this matter. Wait for me to study For a moment, its reward. Add it to your discovery of the mainland, and reward you together!"

After hearing Liu Hong's words, Fugui happily went back to wait for the reward.But Liu Hong was sitting in the main hall, thinking about how to cooperate with the matter of wealth and honor, so as to completely arouse the enthusiasm of the people to go to sea, and even explore.

"Guide the enthusiasm of the people to go to sea and continue it. It is not the same as it is now. If something happens, it will cool down. Then it must be guided in terms of policy and legislation!"

Regarding the repeated times of the people going to sea, Liu Hong decided that if he did not do it, he would do it. If he did, he must solve the problem once and for all.Therefore, he wants to directly formulate relevant laws on this matter to solve this problem from the root.

In Liu Hong's view, it is not so difficult to thoroughly guide the people's enthusiasm for exploration.After all, for these things, European and American countries in later generations have relevant policies and laws in these areas, and he can definitely learn from them.

For example, if you discover an island, you can give them the right to name the island and give them the right to develop the island for a certain number of years.In this way, if a new island is discovered, it must be famous and profitable, which will definitely arouse the enthusiasm of the people to explore the new island.

Of course, Liu Hong also knows how difficult it is to discover a new island.If you want to guide the enthusiasm of the people to go to sea and explore, this alone will not work.After all, time has passed, and the enthusiasm of the common people will definitely decrease when they see not many people discovering the new island.Therefore, he had to think of something easier to lure the people.In Liu Hong's view, this matter will fall on those islands, or the minerals in the land.

Mineral deposits, no matter how small they are, are of immeasurable value, and they are definitely good things to make a fortune.As early as Liu Hong stipulated in the new law, whoever owns the mineral deposits shall own the mineral deposits.The private ownership of mineral deposits has been established. In this way, there are conditions for using mineral deposits to lure the people.

Of course, the legislation on mineral deposits is still quite imperfect.Especially for those unowned lands or mineral deposits on islands, there are no clear regulations at all.He is now perfecting the regulations in this area and using them to attract the people.After all, large tracts of land are now unowned.And those islands are basically unowned, so the mineral deposits there are definitely the best weapon to guide the people to explore.

Things in this area are not difficult at all. A prospecting license can solve the problem.In this way, not only can the people be guided to explore, but the imperial court can also increase part of the unexpected income.

Thinking of this, Liu Hong took out a pen and paper, and began to write and draw. After a while, he formulated an expedition method and a mineral exploration method.

The Expedition Law stipulates that as long as the people of the Han Dynasty discover places and islands that have not been recorded by the imperial court, they will automatically enjoy the naming rights of this place and the priority development right for a hundred years.If you give up the development right, you can exchange for contribution points according to the value of the discovered location.However, no matter whether he gives up the priority development right or not, he will automatically enjoy 30% of the value of the land within [-] years.

The Mineral Exploration Act is even simpler, stipulating that ordinary people can purchase exploration rights for unowned land from the imperial court.Once the prospecting right is purchased, if a mineral deposit is discovered within the specified time, it will automatically enjoy the mining right of the mineral deposit.

Liu Hong is very clear that such two simple laws are definitely not perfect.However, these regulations have been able to guide the people's enthusiasm for exploration.As for the improvement, according to the future development, it is enough to take it slowly.

"Okay, with these two laws, I'm making the rich and honored as marquess, and I'm giving those crew members a big reward. I'm sure I can rekindle the enthusiasm of the people!" (To be continued...)
