The Only Favourite Ugly Husband Chapter 168 - The Novel Is Over

Chapter 168 – The Novel Is Over.

Jiang Zhen naturally did not like Toyo. In the past, when he was in Daqi, he did not like to hire ronins like other sea rchant did.

But he wouldn’t go so far as to make a fuss about it for no reason. Of course, it was still necessary for them to learn Daqi language.

When he first arrived in Toyo, Jiang Zhen spend rather chaotic period of ti but after Cheng Yongzhen’s old troops ca to join him, and his fleet of ships that had gone to carry provisions to the Liaodong Iron Riders was also retrieved by his n, bringing food that was originally intended for Liaodong Iron Riders Jiang Zhen’s days settled down.

Then, Jiang Zhen took this opportunity to compile teaching materials with Zhao Jinge and his accountants, one for language and one for mathematics in simplified characters.

Both language and math textbooks were in simplified characters.

After Jiang Zhen ca to Daqi, he learned traditional Chinese characters, and he had to admit that traditional Chinese characters have their unique beauty, but similarly, traditional Chinese characters had their own disadvantage – they ware too difficult to learn.

In so countries where the language was particularly simple, many people could learn the language of their country without going to school, but no one could do it in Daqi. After all each word was difficult to learn.

Over the years, Jiang Zhen has always let his n go to school to learn how to read but his man knowledge was very general. They not only couldn’t recognize many words but even if they knew them they were unable to write them.

It was definitely not easy to make people who have never learned words before, learn so many words.

In modern tis they invented simplified characters and pinyin to spread education faster, so that those who have never read before could also learn to write faster .… now, Jiang Zhen also decided to use it.

This also turned out to be very beneficial. After using simplified Chinese characters, the speed of learning words accelerated, while the existence of Pinyin let everyone unify their accent.

Of course, given that many things Jiang Zhen himself had forgotten, he couldn’t exactly copy it over… but it didn’t matter much, did it?

Jiang Zhen let his own n learn so he naturally also let Toyo ronins learn them too, especially their children.

In the school built by Jiang Zhen, in the morning teacher would teach the children cultural lessons. While in the afternoon, he will take the older children to do so work, such as binding books, planting land and growing vegetables and so on ……

Studying was free, but if they wanted to study they also had to do so work.

Toyo people did not feel that Jiang Zhen was using child labor, but they are very grateful to Jiang Zhen. After all, Jiang Zhen has given their children the opportunity to receive an education. However, Jiang Zhen did it with selfish intentions.

These school had a rule, that in shool you must only speak Chinese… which was the official language of Daqi.

When Jiang Zhen was in elentary school, his own elentary school had such a rule.

The place where he grow up had quite distinctive dialect but because of this rule, many of the children his age, spoke the dialect very poorly or so simply did not even speak it.

The Toyo people he took in were the people of the bottom so they couldn’t even write in their original language so Jiang Zhen let them learn the language of Daqi while letting their children learn the words of Daqi from the young age… so in the future, these people were expected to completely forget the language and words of Toyo.

In fact, the most ruthless way to invade a country was to destroy its civilization.

If Toyo people here completely forget their civilization could they still be regarded as Toyo ronins?

Of course, they also couldn’t be considered Daqi people …… after all, Jiang Zhen used to teach these people modern knowledge.

Not only that, on top of the customs and habits, he also made a lot of changes.

For example, in Daqi, n could have three wives and four concubines, but here, Jiang Zhen directly stipulated that each man, can only have one wife.

If Jiang Zhen had wanted to decree sothing like this in Daqi he would have been scolded to death, but here, no one objected at all.

Although there ware literate people inside his n they could not be considered serious scholars. But they also readily agreed with this, not to ntion… there was a shortage of won and gers.

Whether it was Jiang Zhen’s n, or old troops of Cheng Yongzhen, the vast majority of these people were n!

So a large group of people was still single! So when Jiang Zhen said that each person could only marry one wife they naturally all raised their hands and feet in favor of it!

Each person can only marry one wife, how good it was! Otherwise, those won and gers would all want to marry Jiang Zhen, He Chunsheng, or soone else, how could they still marry a wife?

On person should only be able to marry one wife!

Jiang Zhen own n did not object at all and these Toyo people naturally were also not opposed.

They were poor and ate bottom of Toyo social hierarchy so many of them wouldn’t even marry a wife.. since it was the case, one person marrying only one wife was good, what does it matter?

This was the first edict issued by Jiang Zhen, not long after, Jiang Zhen stated that all won and gers also had to work and wherever they were girls or gers they should also go to school.

There was also no objection to this.

At present, they were particularly short of people, man had to participate in training and take turns patrolling to defend their territory while also going to sea to do business. With so much work left it was no a big deal to let won and ger work, right?

Didn’t they already saw Zhao Jinge taking care of so many people?

As for children studying together, it was even less important.

Most of the people who followed Jiang Zhen to Toyo were poor. When they were young, n and won used to play together so why did it matter if they now went to school together?

After all Jiang Zhen own daughter went to school!

Jiang Zhen was actually very lucky, people who followed him were originally born poor so it was very easy to train them,

Many ideas ware changing in subtle ways.

Under the deliberate guidance of Jiang Zhen, many things in this place were slowly moving closer to modern tis, and many ideas ware also slowly taking root in people’s subconscious.

When a woman moved out of her ho because she was dissatisfied with her husband love for beating people and relied on her own ability to earn money, Jiang Zhen said she could get a divorce and find soone else to marry.

The woman did not hesitate to divorce and quickly found soone else to marry.

Most n, did recognize that as a problem… many of them could not marry a wife so they even wished for such things to happen more often.

However, Jiang Zhen knows that tis were already changing.

If they were still in Daqi, it would be too difficult to make such a change, It would be at least be necessary to break up the entire class system several tis, but it was much easier here.

They are all outlaws who have left their hos, it’s good enough to be alive so they didn’t care about many things.

Jiang Zhen began to intervene in the war between two sides of Toyo imperial family a long ti ago and made o lot of money by selling weapons to both sides. But he never personally got involved in the war.

To accumulate grain widely and claim the throne slowly was the most suitable solution for his current situation.

But when two sides fought almost to the point of discovering his presence and began to fear him, even wanting to drive him away he no longer hesitated and did it.

The Toyo people he took in, had been loyal to him for a long ti already while the Toyo people elsewhere ..… already knew they could eat and live well by following Jiang Zhen, and did not resist when Jiang Zhen was not thinking of killing them.

Jiang Zhen got a lot of craftsn from Daqi and had the best weapons on hand as well as highly-trained army. With such army, wanting to clean up the imperial family of the Toyo was not a difficult task.

If the two sides could untie, maybe they could still fight against Jiang Zhen but the key point was that the imperial family of Toyo had been fighting for so many years, and hated run deep between them so how could they cooperate?

Toyo was not large so Jiang Zhen spend two years to takeover Toyo.

War always kills people, and this ti it was also not an exception.

So of Jiang Zhen’s n died, but even more Toyo people died.

Most of the nobles in the Toyo were killed at their properties were taken over by Jiang Zhen. Then their land was distributed to the people of the Toyo by Jiang Zhen while at the sa ti he started to implent his own schools in the places he occupied.

Jiang Zhen was not person who could do anything, in so aspects, such as dealing with tedious affairs, he was actually not as good as Zhao Jinge.

He couldn’t manage too many people, let alone too much land. Fortunately, Toyo was not particularly big, and there ware not too many people here.

Moreover, Jiang Zhen also found… that among his people there were still so hidden talents.

Of course, he was still short of people.

However, even if there was a shortage of people to govern the country, he will still be able to stabilize it when he has an army. When a few years pass new talents would also be there.

In the eighth year of Jiang Zhen’s arrival in the Toyo, he built a country in the Toyo and established the Republic of China.

This is one of his own intentions.

When Jiang Zhen first proposed the founding of the people’s Republic of China, his n were very supportive. They wanted Jiang Zhen to beco the emperor and beco emperor officials, they also started thinking of building large mansions and starting to enjoy life, even founding so more Toyo won to serve themselves.

But all of these, were vetoed by Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen directly made a constitutional monarchy.

The emperor would not have much power and would have more of symbolic aning. The power would be in hands of president and parliant, title was only honorific and would not grant any privileges.

At first, no one understood why Jiang Zhen did so, but later they found that when they joined the parliant, they could get a lot of rights and they did not have to worry about being directly killed by the powerful emperor which made them all feel much better.

Of course, not being able to marry a few wives was not very good…. But over ti they get used to it.

After Jiang Zhen established a constitutional monarchy, he did not beco emperor himself, but let Zhao Jinge do it.

However, he beca pri minister.

The day before his inauguration, Jiang Zhen embraced Zhao Mingzhu who had already grown up and not hugged him for years: “Father, will never let you be bullied in the future!”
