Several ministries and departments have been established, and the process of recruiting and ready to work quickly has started. The Ministry of Health was able to act as soon as possible; there already were many hospitals. Just separated from the military and had the power to self-govern independently.

A meeting the following day began in the Government House. Today, each ministry will report the results of the past year to Zhao Lingxin.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs has started sending officers to all regions. Now the ministry has received the report of the population concept survey." Said Major Fang Hanjing, Minister of Internal Affairs.

Zhao Lingxin had long wanted to know the empire's exact population. When the land was merged, he ordered Major Fang Han Jing to collect the population information quickly.

"The empire's population is 9 million, and there are over 2 million Dalian slaves who have not received civil status. So now the empire has a population of about 11 million people." Major Fang Hanjing submitted a population report to the Cabinet.

Of these, the capital's population was eight hundred thousand. Within a year, there were seven times as many immigrants to work in the capital. From the original capital's population is just one hundred thousand people.

Population problem now is the millions of non-civilian slaves.

"Let the slaves work for the government for a year. If they behave well without causing trouble, then give them the citizens." Zhao Lingxin felt that the empire's population was too small, and tribal slaves could be a problem in the future. So there must be a policy to assemble the slaves to feel that they are citizens of the empire. Have loyalty to the country.

Plus, over 2 million slaves is a large population that cannot be ignored. Zhao Lingxin wanted these two million people to be citizens of the country.

"The Ministry of Education has built over a thousand schools across the country. It is expected to increase the literacy rates to the population of hundreds of thousands. In recent years and according to the Ministry of Education plans this year, the literacy rate will increase to one million," Education Minister Colonel Chu Qing said.

In the past, the Ministry of Education has tried hard to make the population read and write.

There have been policies since the creation of the school, special open courses for industrial workers. Although the number is slightly increased, education problems cannot be rushed. It took some time to process until he could see the tangible results. On this point, Zhao Lingxin knew that too much rush would not work.

"The Ministry of Agriculture in the past year was able to promote the cultivation of new crops successfully. The distribution of fertilizers and agricultural tools greatly improved this year's output." Major Xiaoyang, Minister of Agriculture. Show their work.

This year's output, counting just potatoes and corn, yielded millions of tons, so enormous that it couldn't even compare to the previous years, not counting other crops. Raising animals and fisheries produce great products. The Ministry of Agriculture can tackle the problem of famine, which is a very productive ministry.

The overproduction of this market Major Xiayang is preparing to cooperate with the Ministry of Industry to process agricultural products such as flour making, canned food.

All require technology and factories. It is expected that in a few months, the imperial markets will see canned food and instant noodles sold in the market.

The Ministry of Industry is also very active. This is an important ministry as the core of the Empire.

This year, state-owned enterprises and private companies have built many industrial plants, produce products, and employ large-scale labor, including the highly developed construction industry.

As a result, now the famous private construction company has the same skills as the government team. Able to accept construction work by state order.

This year, there will be many engineering constructions, including high-rise buildings, university stadiums, and river bridges.

"Later on, I would like to report the economic results of the empire over the past years." Lt. Colonel Yau Long, Minister of Finance, stands up to present this important information.

"Due to the unification of the Empire, the Empire's GDP has to be re-evaluated. Now we informally acknowledge that the imperial GDP is around 83 million yuan."

Over 70 percent of the Empire's GDP is concentrated in two major cities, such as Shenzhou and Tongzhou, and the educational town of Tsinghua. Originally, the capital's GDP was the last of the Empire. All wealth has gathered in Dongzhou, the eastern port city.

But with the advent of the stock market that can gather huge funds, the continuous economic expansion made the capital of Shenzhou take only one year to take the lead to become the country's most valuable city.

Yuan currency and banknotes were prevalent in the Empire before the unification of the country. Now there is no problem with economic and financial consolidation. All the citizens were familiar with the Yuan currency, and no longer used the original currency.

"Our fiscal income this year has increased significantly. It is expected to collect taxes of about 10 million yuan and account for 12 percent of GDP revenue."

As the Empire abolished the agricultural tax, the government initially lost a lot of income. But the amendment of trade law regulations, including collecting large amounts of taxes from merchants, generates a lot of income for the government sector. This year the government has tax revenues of 12 million yuan. Compared to last year, when Zhao Lingxin reigned, the tax collected was only about 3 million yuan.

The Ministry of Finance further forecast that if the country's economy continues to grow, the government's tax collection will increase accordingly. Sun Wanping, as Minister of Economy and Trade, added special conditions to attract many merchants to invest more money. Many capitalists are starting to realize that the money they keep in their treasury will only deteriorate every day. Bring this money to invest in producing fruit and growing up, causing this economic bubble to continue to expand.

The science ministry was ineffective at the meeting. But secretly, they have contributed the most to development. The secret research institute generates a large amount of scientific research ready to be delivered to the government to further its business.

Dr. Chen was able to reverse the engineering of many machines. Now the Empire has started to have the technology of its own and no longer needed to rely on Zhao Lingxin to summon machines. This is a huge technological leap for the country.

The national university, under government supervision, is under construction. In two months, the first imperial university will be officially opened.

The big problem now for the government is severe inequality within the country. The capital's population can enjoy the lights and clean water, having a job with very high wages. Unlike people around the capital who live a difficult quality of life.

Compared to the locals, they have a difficult life. Not to mention electricity and water supply even the road did not cut through to the local. This disparity is so widespread. It is an urgent task for the government to address.

"All of you are doing very well. The Empire is constantly growing and going strong. However, there will be many problems that we will face in the future. But in the past year, it proved how well we are," Zhao Lingxin praised the Cabinet. They worked hard for the Empire.

"We are all working for the emperor," the ministers said in unison.

"Today's meeting has ended. We will discuss tomorrow," Zhao Lingxin said, closing the meeting on the second day. The Cabinet has gone several ways from the Government House.
