For example, the former Julu Kingdom was in chaos because of the rampant cannibalism of the white bear king.
Therefore, all parts of Cangyan had to form their own guards to patrol the counties and towns.
In fact, many of the village protection groups and patrol troops were built according to the standards of the reserve army. The training was very intensive, and they were even taught combat skills and battle formations. In the event of war, they could change their clothes and become an army. Villagers who joined the village protection group or participated in the training during the summer and winter farming off-season could deduct the subsequent per-acre tax and enjoy a discount when purchasing certain materials.
The decrees issued by the Cangyan State are numerous and seem overwhelming, but that is because the country is too large and has too many affairs, so there are actually very few restrictions when it comes to specific categories.
Resting and recuperating with the people is mostly extensive management.
Remember, the fewer restrictions there are, the better people perform.
"Please restrain your urge to meddle in other people's affairs, and restrain your official power that you display whenever you have nothing to do." He Lingchuan repeatedly emphasized to his ministers that governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, so you should watch carefully, do less, and let nature take its course.
Cangyan's territory is too vast. Although government at all levels adopted the policy of streamlining administration and reducing bureaucracy when they were first established, since the country is giving benefits to the people, it will be short of money and the treasury will be in deficit.
It takes money to support the army, to open up wasteland, to build water conservancy projects and roads, and to pay the salaries of officials at all levels. Where does the money come from?
Before Cangyan was established, the resources and special products on the Shining Gold Plain could be sold to other places through the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce. Now that the two countries of Mou and Ya are at war, the purchase of war supplies is more frequent.
Internally, Cang Yan set his sights on the aristocratic families, as they had the largest stockpiles.
Instead of resorting to looting and killing, there is another way to make them willingly give up money and food, and that is "borrowing".
The Cangyan Kingdom exchanged the money and grain in their hands for the "national property voucher". This voucher was a loan note stamped with the Qinghong seal, with an annual interest rate of 6%, and it would be redeemed after three years.
This is backed by the prestige of the Dragon God and the national credit. In the current environment where both have high credibility, the wealthy and powerful can feel more at ease.
In addition, during the previous Dragon God War, large-scale pioneering production in the areas occupied by the Dragon God Army had already begun. By the time the country was founded, there had been three or four rounds of harvests, and grain output and reserves were relatively stable, which could be used to maintain temporary stability.
Finally, the Cangyan Kingdom imported a large amount of grain through the Yangshan Islands.
As one of the original grain supply areas of the Mou Kingdom, Bailie also concentrated on supplying a large amount of grain to Cangyan during this special period. The elders of the Lu family also made every effort, even borrowing grain from the northern countries.
In the early days of Cangyan, the salaries paid to local officials included rice bran, cloth, firewood, seasonings, straw sandals, herbs, fruits, local specialties, etc. They mainly paid whatever could be used to pay for it. Anyway, the local finances had no money, so everyone tightened their belts together. This tight situation did not improve until five months after the founding of the country.
I will not go into more detailed methods.
In short, the most difficult time was when Cangyan first established the country. He Lingchuan tried his best to stabilize the internal and external situations, just to ensure a smooth transition and lay a solid foundation.
This is because the frequent outbreaks of Emperor Liujiang will inevitably bring about huge increases.
Development can solve most problems. As long as we can get through this most difficult period and as long as there is less external pressure, the Golden Plains will have a promising future.
You know, this plain is not only blessed by Emperor Liujiang, but also by the Dragon God.
Wherever the Black Dragon Totem is, there is often good weather, good harvests, and the spiritual energy will not be sucked away by immortals and demons. It is truly a benefit for all living beings. Not only will the practitioners' progress in cultivation be accelerated, but ordinary people will also be healthy and less likely to get sick.
The triple BUFF stack is full.
This was the opportunity that He Lingchuan had seized at all costs to seize the flash gold, stabilize the external situation, and ensure stability at all costs.
The great changes in the world have arrived, and he must gather enough strength as soon as possible so that he can be the first to stand in the torrent of the times and ride the tide.

The first snow in Lingxu City this year came a little later than usual, but it was so heavy that it was above the calf height in just one night.
Early in the morning, when Xi Yunhe walked into the Qiu Palace, he saw palace servants sweeping snow in the strong wind to clear the main road.
From autumn to winter, the Autumn Palace is always bright red. As soon as the maple leaves and Chinese tallow trees fall, blood plums and fire hollies take their place.
Despite the festive and lively colors, Xi Yunhe always felt that this place was more desolate than the Winter Palace, especially when the wind whistled through the corridors and the rustling of leaves made it even colder.
Probably because there are too few people.
When he reached the door of the study, Xi Yunhe heard what seemed to be human voices inside.
A woman's voice.
Before he could knock on the door, the person inside said, "Come in."
Xi Yunhe pushed the door open and a wave of warm air rushed in.
The study was also a warm room. It was snowing outside, but it was warm inside like spring. Sitting on the couch was a beauty, with long tassels and a charming and plump figure. Imperial Master Shuangye was half lying on her lap with his eyes closed, enjoying her light massage on his temples.
The beauty also asked Shuang Ye: "Why is there a strange toad beside your couch?"
"One?" Shuangye didn't even open his eyes. "Take another look."
The beauty looked closely and her scalp tingled. She exclaimed, "This toad actually has so many tadpoles on its back!"
Next to the couch was a transparent water tank, made of polished crystal that was extremely transparent, allowing a clear view of everything. There were rocks, driftwood, fine sand, seaweed and clear water inside, and at first glance it looked like a small pond.
Lying on the rock was a yellow-skinned toad that was bigger than a human palm, but its body color was too similar to the environment, so the beauty entered the study room for a long time before she realized it was a living creature.
The difference between it and ordinary toads lies in the fact that there are densely packed irregular holes on its back, a bit like a beehive, but what live inside are not bee larvae, but tadpoles one by one!
Almost every one of them is alive and can move and spin.
After the beauty saw it clearly, she felt a chill on her back.
"This is a toad carrying its young." Shuang Ye's voice was even. "It carries its young on its back to avoid predators and danger. But if the mother toad dies, the young will die too. No one can escape."
The beauty asked curiously, "What if the tadpoles on the back of the female toad quietly escape when it encounters an enemy?"
"It's useless. There is a mysterious bond between mother and child. Even if the tadpole escapes to the ends of the earth, it will be useless. They will die together."
"Ah..." Can such a small tadpole swim to the ends of the earth? "This symbiotic relationship must have an end, right?"
If the mother dies, the child dies, so how do generations of toads continue?
"You are very smart." Shuang Ye smiled, "It's no wonder that I like you the most."
The beauty also smiled ingratiatingly, but her smile was not quite willing. If you like it, then you like it. Why add the word "most"? Alas!
"When the tadpoles grow into little toads, this contract of living and dying together will be automatically terminated, and they will fly away from then on."
