Chapter 120: Excited people! Waiting for the arrival of next year! (4K) (Ch 120)

“turn out to be.”
“Is this the tenth anniversary of the founding of the country?”
“A team composed of ordinary people participated in the sports meeting.”
“Farmers, breeders, businessmen, etc. are selected for commendation.”
“Even directly distributing food to the people across the country?!”
Wang Qianhe looked at the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
He never thought about it.
The celebration can actually be held like this!
He never thought about it.
The grand occasion could actually reach such a level!
Let all people participate!
Let all the people not be left out!
Let Yuguo truly achieve…sharing joy with the people!
“Even if it hasn’t arrived yet.”
“But it’s all foreseeable.”
“What a blast it will be!”
Wang Qianhe took a deep breath.
And those officials from aristocratic families who thought they were knowledgeable and knew everything also opened their eyes wide at this moment.
“If we compare it with previous poetry gatherings and garden tours.”
“This is simply being crushed!”
“There is absolutely no comparison at all!!!”
The expressions of these officials from aristocratic families were extremely complicated.
Of course they could think of it.
How lively it would be with so many people participating in the event!
As for the poetry gatherings or brothels that used to have only dozens of participants, no matter how interesting the process seemed, after a period of noise, it would turn into emptiness!
because.
There are too few people who can participate!
The pleasure that only a very few people can experience cannot magnify the complete happiness!
“We are not only outdone by Chen Huaixin in terms of governing the country.”
“Even when it comes to entertainment and play, you are far inferior to him?”
“Then…what on earth do we have to show for it?”
Some officials from aristocratic families even felt frustrated.
Ji Changling, who actually liked lively atmosphere, was also full of envy at this moment.
“If I could participate in this grand event of Yu Country, even if I was just a commoner, I would definitely be happier than I am now.”
The people of Yu country are more important than the princess of Cheng country!
This inequality appeared in Ji Changling’s mind, but quickly disappeared.
As for Ji Qingluo who was looking at the Jiantian Mirror, there was even more disappointment in his eyes.
“Yuguo was able to call on so many people to participate.”
“Because…”
“They are now able to have enough food and warm clothes…”
…
【November, the ninth year of Jingping.】
【This winter is exceptionally cold. 】
【but.】
【For the common people. 】
[They didn’t feel anything, but felt warm. ]
[Not only because the woolen sweater they were wearing was getting cheaper and cheaper, but also because the court was promoting some activities for the 10th anniversary of the founding of the country in that newspaper, which made them full of expectations! ]
[“Each city will be the main body, and local people will be selected to participate in the sports meeting. The winner will be personally received by His Majesty and can also receive many rewards?”]
[“Hiss! This is great! It’s a pity that I don’t know anything, otherwise I would definitely sign up and try to see if I can be selected!”]
[“Who said you can’t do anything? Can’t you run? I remember you ran really fast when you were chasing after the guy next door, Lao Wang. You can just participate in the running competition at the sports meet!”]
[“Don’t talk nonsense. Who is chasing after the neighbor? You’ve got the wrong person! But… is there really a running competition? I thought it was only for martial arts activities like archery and horse riding!”]
【“…”】
[The people were talking about it.]
[For them, who have not had any decent entertainment activities for thousands of years and basically live just to live, the attraction of this grand occasion is unquestionable! ]
【Although.】
【Before this.】
[The imperial court promoted novels, comic strips, and various activities during festivals, giving them many more ways to entertain themselves.]
[But they always feel that something is a little bit missing! ]
[And now, when the plan for next year is gradually revealed, when everyone can participate in the grand event of next year. ]
[They suddenly understood that the previous lack was actually because it was not lively enough, because they could only entertain themselves. Even if they were very happy, they could not share that joy with those around them! ]
[When the atmosphere covers the whole country and everyone participates in it, the happiness and excitement that can be obtained will be hundreds and thousands of times greater! ]
[Many people are already eagerly awaiting the arrival of the 10th anniversary of the founding of the country next year! ]
【certainly.】
【I am looking forward to this the most. 】
【Or merchants from all over the world! 】
[They naturally know how big the business opportunities are hidden in this. When all the people are most excited and the event is at its grandest, it is also the easiest time to sell things and make money! ]
【but.】
【These are the views of ordinary businessmen. 】
[For those who were the first batch to be summoned to the palace to write the commercial law, and the first batch of wealthy merchants who chose to go out to sea to trade. ]
[What they care about most is the opportunity to be praised by His Majesty! ]
【”if.”】
[“I am able to be personally received by His Majesty.”]
[“To be honored by His Majesty himself.”]
[“Then I won’t have any regrets in my life!”]
[“It’s worth it even if I die right here and there!”]
[A wealthy businessman said this to his own son. ]
[In order to fulfill his wish, these young men even thought about whether they should build good relationships with officials. After all, this kind of selection must be made by officials from all over the country, and then reported to the higher authorities.]
[“If these officials say a few more kind words, perhaps the chances of being commended will be greater!”]
[A disciple said this.]
【Then.】
[He was immediately beaten and his legs were broken by the wealthy merchant! ]
[“How many times do I have to tell you! We businessmen should just do business honestly and not have any other crooked ideas! And do you really think that the court will not pay attention to this matter?”]
[“This is the tenth anniversary of the establishment of Yu Country! It is the most important event for Yu Country!”]
[“If someone messes this up, it would tarnish this grand occasion, haha!”]
[The merchant’s tone was full of coldness.]
[As a businessman of his level, he knows very well how much political significance this matter has. ]
[It is not only the first super-large ceremony held by Yuguo, but also the first in all dynasties throughout history! ]
[Even officials who have shown signs of corruption in the past would never dare to make any move on this matter, and these wealthy businessmen would not dare to have even a single thought! ]
【“Whoever touches it will die!”】
This is the bottom line of this matter.
[So even though this wealthy merchant was looking forward to it, and even though he had some connections with the Minister of Industry because of helping to raise pigs, he still didn’t dare to show any of his thoughts on the outside! ]
【certainly.】
[The same is true for other wealthy merchants.]
[They looked eagerly in the direction of Chang’an City, hoping that they would be chosen by His Majesty.]
[“That… is truly worth my whole life!”]
[Same month.]
[While the court was busy preparing for next year’s affairs.]
[Chen Huaixin is examining his eldest son who has just returned from visiting the people.]
【Because he has already decided.】
【The request to visit the people every year. 】
[The eldest son went to visit the people in October, just like he did last year, and did not return until November.]
“You’ve done a good job this year.”
“Nothing like last year.”
[“I almost messed up everything.”]
【Chen Huaixin looked at his eldest son, a rare smile on his face.】
[The eldest son, who is now one year older, showed a hint of embarrassment. ]
【but.】
[When asking him if he has any ideas. ]
The eldest son’s expression suddenly turned serious, and he said, “Father, the people I visited were all on the list of the imperial court, so they actually had no shortage of food, clothing, shelter, or transportation.”
[“But some people along the way may not have met the requirements yet, or for other reasons, their living standards are not better than those of the people who are being taken care of, and they even have difficulty in getting food and shelter.”]
[“I don’t know what standards the court uses to record the people it needs to take care of, but it shouldn’t ignore those people who don’t meet the standards!”]
【What the eldest son said is a bit confusing. 】
[However, Chen Huaixin still understood what he meant. Some people whose living standards were zero had been raised to two with the help of the court, but those whose living standards were one still remained at one! ]
【but.】
【Even if I understand the meaning. 】
[But Chen Huaixin couldn’t come up with a good solution for this kind of thing.]
[“The court’s standard is to allow the people who cannot survive to continue living. However, as long as they are recorded on the list, the local government will not dare to be careless and will naturally give them the best help they can.”]
[“This results in their living standards being better than those of the people who can barely make ends meet. Even the imperial court is powerless to strike this balance.”]
【Chen Huaixin sighed.】
[The eldest son did not seem to have expected that his omnipotent father would actually give him such an answer! ]
[“Father…”]
[“If I give this matter to you, and let you handle it in five, ten, or even thirty years, and you find a solution to this problem for your father, how about that?”]
【Chen Huaixin looked at his eldest son.】
[The eldest son was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously.]
【“Your son.”】
[“I will definitely live up to my father’s expectations!”]
【Twelfth month of the ninth year of Jingping.】
【There is only one month left until next year. 】
[But the enthusiasm that erupted in each city dissipated the freezing cold temperature that day. ]
【You can see people running every day. 】
【You can see people playing Cuju every day. 】
[You can see people wrestling every day. ]
【after all.】
【Everyone hopes so. 】
[I can participate in that sports meet. ]
[“Not only will you have the hope of being honored by His Majesty, but you will also get food if you participate!”]
[Most people know that it is basically impossible to win in a sports meet.]
[The Yu Kingdom is so big, and there are so many strong people. Instead of having unrealistic expectations, it is better to find a way to get the food for the participation reward! ]
[As for local governments, the work at the end of each year is already very busy. Now there is also the task of forming a local representative team, which naturally makes them even busier! ]
【but.】
[Not many officials complained about this.]
[Because they know very well that if their city’s representative team can stand out in the sports meeting, it will also be considered as the achievement of them, the parents! ]
【”if.”】
[“There are people who can win.”]
[“I am able to be received by His Majesty.”]
[“Then we have a bright future!”]
[These officials are full of expectations.]
【certainly.】
【besides.】
[As for the representatives of local farmers, local breeders, and local businessmen, they were also selected and presented by them.]
[Just as the wealthy merchants thought, these officials did not dare to have any selfish motives in this matter. Maybe in the future, it is unknown, but now that Yu Country is holding such a grand event for the first time, no one wants to be caught and used as a warning to others! ]
[This also disappointed the Prime Minister, who supervised officials at all levels.]
【“I thought so.”】
“There will be officials who want to tamper with things.”
[“I didn’t expect everyone to be so honest.”]
[Although the Prime Minister said this, there was a satisfied expression on his face.]
[The Minister of War next to him was watching the generals quarreling. It was not until the Prime Minister looked at him that he said helplessly: “Your Majesty wants to hold a military review to show the people the elegance of our Yu country’s soldiers. They are arguing about who should be the first and who should be the last.”]
[“You’re just going to watch them quarreling? Aren’t you afraid of wasting time?”]
[“The military parade will be held before the finals of the sports meet. The sports meet will start in each city first. Once the winning teams are formed, they will come to Chang’an for the finals. There is definitely enough time.”]
[The Minister of War was not too worried.]
[The grand event of Yuguo’s tenth anniversary will not end in January, but will last almost a whole year! ]
[And he knew very well that when the time was almost up, these generals would definitely fight each other to decide who would go first and who would go last. Since it would be like this in the end, why should he intervene in their current quarrel! ]
[“What about the military exercise? Have you informed those small countries in advance? Has anyone refused?”]
[“Reject? They need to have the courage to do so!”]
[The Minister of War showed a hint of a sneer.]
[Da Yu’s tenth anniversary celebration not only invited them to attend the ceremony, but also allowed them to form a team and participate in Yu’s military exercises. ]
[It’s bad enough that these small countries don’t know how to be grateful, but how dare they reject their kindness? ]
[You really feel that there are too few countries that have been conquered in the Western Regions recently, so your country has to make up the number, right? ]
【After hearing this, the Prime Minister also felt that this was indeed the truth.】
【“The rest.”】
[“Just waiting for next year to come!”]
