After returning to Nanjing, Lu Bu first met with all the ministers.

Although there are any national events, they can contact each other via telegram and phone.

But after all, I haven't seen each other for such a long time.

It is better to see it in reality.

After the king and his ministers met, the ministers reported to Lu Bu some work, but nothing serious happened.

However, a situation provided by Xi Zhicai, the Minister of War, attracted the attention of Lu Bu.

Xi Zhicai proposed that the current recruitment work has become much more difficult than before.

In the past, recruitment was a simple matter.

Because I used to be poor, I couldn't eat enough to stay at home.

Besides, the years are chaotic, and maybe when they either starve to death or are beaten to death.

As long as you go to the army, you can make a full meal.

So, at that time, as long as you give me a bite of food, there were a lot of people rushing to join the army.

But what about now?

Everyone has better living conditions, and they work at home and have a farming income, so they can easily earn dozens or hundreds of taels of silver.

Although the military salary for being a soldier is more than before, it is actually not much more than working at home.

And nowadays, when you join the army, you have to go to war, and there will be risks in fighting.

Nowadays, everyone has money, who is willing to join the army with his head?

Therefore, unless it is in a particularly poor place, recruiting soldiers is becoming increasingly difficult now.

But now Dahua’s population is not too large, and the country is very rich.

It’s like a particularly poor place, and it’s really not much to be felt, and it’s even about to disappear.

This also leads to increasing difficulties in recruiting soldiers.

Now, Xi Zhicai is asking Lu Bu whether to force recruitment.

It is mandatory that each place, according to its population, must collect how many soldiers.

If the task fails to be completed, the local officials will be punished.

As long as this strategy is implemented, the number of soldiers will definitely be guaranteed.

But Lu Bu hesitated for a moment and did not speak immediately.

This situation is actually a normal situation.

After the people become rich, they are often unwilling to join the army.

However, to expand and defend the country, there must be enough troops.

So, how to resolve this contradiction?

Should we really have to be forced to recruit soldiers as Xi Zhicai suggested?

If there is really no way, this method can only be used.

However, the forced melon is not sweet, and Lu Bu thinks it is better to adopt a voluntary policy.

Why are you unwilling to join the army now?

The most important thing is that the construction of spiritual civilization has not kept up.

Now, Dahua's economy is developing rapidly, the people are becoming rich, and the hardware facilities are gradually being improved.

However, the people's spiritual civilization construction has not been able to keep up with it in time.

This is also the direct reason for the difficulty in recruiting.

Lu Bu believes that if there are a few years, he is afraid that the arrogance and extravagance will spread.

This is the process that must go through for social development and the progress of the times.

The key is how you control and guide this process.

Lu Bu felt that at this time, the most important thing was to focus on guidance.

Strengthen patriotic education for the people.

At this moment, the vice president of the research institute asked for a meeting.

The director of the research institute was transferred to Youzhou by Lu Bu and was responsible for the mining of the Daqing oil field.

This time, the vice president came and came to report something.

Could it be that the tank was completely developed?

However, by time, it seems to be a little earlier.

In fact, even if the tank was successfully made at this time, it would not be able to be opened for the time being.

Because they don't have that much oil at all.

Soon, Lu Bu sent someone to invite the vice president in.

After meeting the emperor, the vice president immediately responded excitedly: "Your Majesty, our scientific research institute has successfully released the camera."

The research institute is now divided into several research topics, and is conducted by different members.

The research results of that group have been produced, and the research group is faster. The research institute will pay bonuses based on this situation and also improve the system.

Therefore, every group of scientific researchers will do their best to carry out their research topics.

What's more, those who can enter the research institute are basically all scientific research madmen.

What they are more interested in is scientific research itself. As for the near or improvement, their attraction is much weaker.

When Lu Bu heard that they had actually developed the camera, he couldn't help but blink in surprise.

It is not difficult to develop a camera, but it is not difficult to develop a phonograph.

But they developed the camera so quickly, which surprised Lu Bu quite.

However, this is also a good thing.

With a camera, you can record and preserve the fragments of the beauty in your life.

Soon, the vice president presented the finished camera they developed.

After Lu Bu operated it, he felt that the camera's clarity was still good, so he couldn't help but praise the vice president.

...

After meeting with the minister, Lu Bu returned to the inner palace.

Empress Cai Yan led all the concubines to welcome the emperor in the harem.

Lu Bu looked at Queen Cai Yan and found that she looked a little haggard and her face looked a little older.

Seeing this scene, Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Like flowers and beautiful couples, like water passing years!

Seeing Cai Yan again, Lu Bu felt a faint silence in his heart.

However, Lu Bu felt that now, there seemed to be a gap between him and Cai Yan.

Perhaps, this is why Cai Yan's actions after learning that he was suspected of being killed, which made Lu Bu always remember it and feel uncomfortable.

Although Lu Bu also understood that Cai Yan's actions at that time were undoubtedly the most correct ones.

The most beneficial to the country!

However, the only thing is that it lacks some human touch and some love between husband and wife.

Lu Bu felt very uncomfortable with Cai Yan's actions at that time.

It turns out that born in the imperial family, not only those princes but also the concubines cannot help themselves.

Even the emperor is still unable to escape this magic circle!

In history, count the princes of founding emperors of all dynasties, and then you will be surprised to find that few of these princes could inherit the throne and end up with a good end.

It turns out that being a prince is a high-risk profession.

Being the founding emperor's prince is particularly risky.

This shouldn't be the case between me and the prince?

It seems that when I saw the prince just now, the prince was very respectful to him.

But there is a hint of awe in this respect.

I must not be very strict with the prince. Why does the prince feel awe of him?

On the contrary, the second prince Lu Sheng was overjoyed when he saw him, and it was a complete expression of true feelings.

Thinking of these situations, Lu Bu couldn't help but shake his head in distress.

You must pay more attention to these things.
