Chapter Summary
“Report to Your Majesty, an earth dragon’s turning occurred in Jianghuai City, causing the Jianghuai River to change its course, but currently, there are no casualties among the people! ”“Report to Your Majesty, an earth dragon’s turning occurred in Luohua City, causing a landslide on the earthen mountain, but currently, there are no casualties among the people! After listening to everyone’s reports, Lin Beifan said, “It seems that this time the earth dragon’s turning has swept across the nation...
“Minister Heshen, continue to organize the common people to build roads, mine, and reclaim land!
”“Yes, Your Majesty!
”“Minister Cao Cao, continue to recruit soldiers.
By the end of the year, let our Great Xia’s military strength reach 4 million!
”“Yes, Your Majesty!
”“Minister Li Linfu, continue to organize the autumn imperial examination to select talents for our Great Xia!
”“Yes, Your Majesty!
”After issuing the orders, Lin Beifan realized he had nothing else to do, so he waved his hand, “If there’s nothing else, then let’s conclude the court session!
”“Your Majesty, there is still one important matter!
” The prime minister, Xiao Guoliang, stood up.
“Uncle, what’s the matter?
” Lin Beifan asked.
“Your Majesty!
” Xiao Guoliang said excitedly, “Now, our Great Xia has defeated two dynasties in a row and has become renowned far and wide!
Whether it’s in terms of territory, population, or other aspects, we are fully qualified to establish our own dynasty!
Therefore, I implore Your Majesty to establish a dynasty and revitalize Great Xia!
”“Please, Your Majesty, establish a dynasty and revitalize Great Xia!
” The civil and military officials echoed in unison, looking at Lin Beifan with anticipation.
If Great Xia were to establish a dynasty, all these veteran officials would bask in the glory.
Thus, they strongly supported this matter.
Lin Beifan shook his head, “The time is not yet right!
”“Your Majesty, how can it not be the right time?
Now, Great Xia is much stronger than the Great Xue Dynasty and the Great Feng Dynasty.
They are qualified to establish dynasties, so why can’t we?
” Xiao Guoliang asked, unwilling to let it go.
The civil and military officials were also very puzzled.
Logically speaking, Great Xia’s national power was stronger than many dynasties, and still bearing the name of a great kingdom didn’t sound good nor was it believable.
It would be better to take advantage of the momentum to establish a dynasty.
Lin Beifan explained, “My ministers, I understand your thoughts, but indeed, the time is not yet right!
I believe that when Great Xia produces a Grandmaster, possessing the power to deter other nations, that will be the time for us to establish our dynasty!
”“That day is not far off, my ministers, do not be anxious!
”Since the Emperor had decided so, the civil and military officials naturally followed his command.
Following this, the entire court’s officials became busy carrying out Lin Beifan’s orders.
Lin Beifan did the same; he prepared to use the Empire Sandbox’s abilities to transform Great Xia.
He opened the Empire Sandbox in his mind, and the entire nation’s situation came into view.
The current Great Xia was vast, with a territory of 8 million square miles, already meeting the standard of an empire.
The entire nation was surrounded by four mountain ranges.
To the south was the Hengduan (Transverse) Mountain Range, to the north was the Phoenix Mountain Range, to the west was the White Tiger Mountain Range, and to the east was the Azure Dragon Mountain Range.
These could repel enemies from the outside and protect the citizens within.
The vast middle area enclosed by the four mountain ranges was a huge plain.
Such a vast area, coupled with the unique terrain, laid the foundation for the empire.
Therefore, it must be properly transformed.
“First, we need to connect the rivers so that all the water systems in the country are interconnected!
If the waterways are all connected, then transportation will be convenient!
Moreover, it will also facilitate the irrigation of farmland, serving multiple purposes!
”Lin Beifan used the Hand of God, transforming Great Xia as if he were playing with an actual sandbox.
After about an hour, the transformation of the national water system was completed, connecting every river and forming a dense network of waterways across the country.
As long as you take a boat from the capital city, you can reach all parts of the country through the waterways.
“Next, we need to add soil and resources along the water systems to facilitate the development of agriculture and industry!
”Lin Beifan arranged for fertile soil to be placed on both sides of the riverbanks.
There are also some mineral resources distributed along the river, making it convenient to be close to both the river and the city.
As a result, the agriculture and industry of Great Xia will inevitably soar rapidly.
This task took half an hour to complete.
In fact, there was no need to take so much time.
Lin Beifan only needed to lift a finger, and the transformation would have been completed in less than two or three minutes.
However, the scale of this transformation was so large that to avoid harming the common people, he had to be extremely careful and slow down the process.
After completing these two major transformations, Lin Beifan continued to make adjustments, flattening highlands and filling in valleys…He cleared all obstacles to the development of Great Xia.
……Meanwhile, the outside world experienced a violent tremor.
“Boom…”All the common people panicked.
“What’s happening?
Oh my, is it the earth dragon turning over again?
”“This earthquake is much more violent than before!
”“In the last two years, the earth dragon turning over in Great Xia has become more frequent.
Could it be a sign that something bad is going to happen?
”“This place is dangerous, let’s find an open area to take cover!
”“Everyone run!
”People ran frantically towards open spaces.
They thought this earth dragon turning over would pass quickly, but it lasted unusually long, almost a day, causing anxiety and spreading all kinds of rumors.
Some said that the Emperor had offended the heavens, and the gods were about to punish us and so on.
A few officials ran to the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.
“Lord Yuan, what’s going on?
”“The earth dragon has been turning over for almost a day now, and we don’t know when it will end!
”“News from other places says they are also experiencing earthquakes, the situation is no small matter!
”“The rumors outside have gone wild, saying our Emperor is a foolish emperor, and the heavens are punishing us, punishing Great Xia!
”“You’re in charge of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, can’t you explain?
”Yuan Tiangang looked up at the starry sky.
There was a star in the sky that was particularly bright, illuminating all around.
Yuan Tiangang laughed heartily: “This is not an omen of misfortune, but a sign of great joy, a heavenly blessing!
Once we get through this ordeal, Great Xia will be poised to soar!
So go back and tell everyone not to panic, just wait patiently!
”“Lord Yuan, is it really true?
”“Are you not deceiving us?
”Everyone was very skeptical.
The earth dragon turning over was commonly perceived as a disaster that could bring great loss.
And now you’re telling us it’s a sign of great joy, a heavenly blessing?
Isn’t this just fooling people?
“Why would I deceive you?
”Yuan Tiangang was somewhat displeased and pushed them out the door: “Believe it or not, it’s up to you, but that’s my answer!
Great Xia is ready to soar, so I’m going to drink and celebrate!
”Not long after, someone from the palace came to inquire about the situation.
Yuan Tiangang decided to enter the palace to have an audience with His Majesty, to report this joyous event, and at the same time, to find some fine wine to drink.
……The earth dragon’s turning continued until midnight before it finally stopped.
However, no one dared to return to their rooms to sleep; instead, they made do with sleeping on makeshift beds outside for the night.
By the second day, reports of the earth dragon’s turning from all over the country came in like a flurry of snowflakes.
“Report to Your Majesty, an earth dragon’s turning occurred in Jianghuai City, causing the Jianghuai River to change its course, but currently, there are no casualties among the people!
”“Report to Your Majesty, an earth dragon’s turning occurred in Luohua City, causing a landslide on the earthen mountain, but currently, there are no casualties among the people!
”“Report to Your Majesty, an earth dragon’s turning occurred in Shenhua City, causing the Shenhua River to change its course and the land to crack, revealing a large amount of copper and coal resources, but currently, there are no casualties among the people!
”Lin Beifan listened calmly.
Having personally taken action, how could he not be aware of what was happening across the country?
But as the Emperor, he still needed to show concern for such matters.
After listening to everyone’s reports, Lin Beifan said, “It seems that this time the earth dragon’s turning has swept across the nation.
Although the seismic activity was not strong, the impact is significant!
Therefore, Minister He, you are tasked with tallying the national losses.
After you have completed the tally, report back to me!
”“Yes, Your Majesty!
” Heshen accepted the decree.
