A few days later, the Jingguo Cabinet issued an official document, stating that since everyone was of the same race, it was normal to pay compensation, but the compensation was too much, so the Jingguo Cabinet decided to invite some students from Qingguo to study in the newly built new-style academy in Jingguo, and all expenses would be deducted from the compensation.
As soon as this statement came out, people from all over the ten countries praised Jingguo and believed that Jingguo had done its utmost.
Not only did the voices in Qing State that wanted to go to war with Jing State disappear, but an internal conflict broke out over whether to go to Jing State to study.
Most people believe that going to Jingguo to study is to forget one's roots and bring shame to the ancestors of Qingguo, and that one must not learn from Jingguo.
But a few people believe that if Qing wants to defeat Jing, it must learn everything that is better. Only when Qing itself becomes strong can everything be fundamental.
Only a few people doubted Jingguo's intentions, but it did not attract any attention.
However, scholars from various countries did not care much about the life and death of the Qing people, and soon turned all their attention to the new-style academy.
Gongdian took personal action and the first batch of technical colleges were built.
Five colleges, including the First Agricultural College, the First Engineering College, the First Medical College, the First Legal College, and the First Military College, have begun sending invitation letters to celebrities from all over the ten countries, and have even started selecting the first batch of students in Jing Country, in preparation for the official opening of school on the first day of March next year.
While the new-style academy was sending out invitation letters to celebrities from all over the country, many workers and scholars from all over the country also received invitation letters from Yuhai City.
Because there are not enough talented people in Yuhai City.
Under Fang Yun's guidance, many of the mechanisms and tools designed by Yuhai City have successfully attracted the sea people. The number of sea people is extremely large, and they often place massive orders at a time.
Jingguo’s production capacity cannot keep up.
Most of the raw materials for these goods come from the ocean, so this is not a shortcoming.
However, there are not enough workshops, too few high-level scholars and too few skilled workers.
Although Gongdian fully supports Jingguo, it is impossible to poach people from other countries. It has sent all the talents that Qingguo and Guguo can control to Jingguo, but it is far from enough.
Therefore, Jingguo could only find a solution on his own.
Talent investment has become the biggest means for Jing State to attract workers and scholars from all over the country.
Although Gongdian did not overtly help Jingguo in this regard, it allowed Fang Yun, with the authority of Xusheng, to retrieve files from various countries from Gongdian, allowing Jingguo to very accurately select technical talents from various countries and then offer generous conditions.
Many scholars and workers are conflicted inside. On the one hand, they want to gain more wealth, but on the other hand, they want to improve on the holy path of industry.
However, human ability and energy are limited. Once one pursues wealth, one must give up spending on the Way of Saints for the sake of oneself and one's family. Once one pursues the Way of Saints, one will also give up a lot.
Skills and Tao are not in conflict in themselves, but people who pursue them often find it difficult to balance the two.
With the help of the files of Gongdian, Jingguo got to know more about many scholars and workers. He promised high salaries to those who liked money, provided conditions for in-depth research on engineering technology to those who liked holy ways, and provided double protection to those who wanted both.
Within a few days, top leaders of various countries discovered that a large number of workers, scholars and employees had left their country, and many of them even left with their families.
All countries immediately conducted a thorough investigation and soon discovered that the destination of those Gong family scholars was Yuhai City. They immediately realized that Jing State was snatching talents, so they secretly used means to prevent those Gong family scholars from leaving.
However, most of these countries cannot offer conditions as high as Yunhai, so talents are still being lost from various countries.
Other countries also attempted to forcibly intercept people going to Yuhai City, but Jing Kingdom directly arranged water monsters to escort them and take the entire journey by water, giving other countries no chance to take advantage.
As a result, some officials could not help but scold Jingguo for being despicable and shameless on the forum.
However, scholars from various countries did not blame Jingguo for this. Instead, they accused their own countries of being incompetent and unable to retain talent. They should reflect on themselves and ask why so many people would rather drag their families across the ocean to go to an unknown and strange place.
Subsequently, all countries united to put pressure on Jingguo.
After discussion, the cabinet of Jingguo compromised and decided to establish a joint workshop with various countries in Yuhai City, seconding a group of talents from various countries every three years, and the income of the workshop was distributed according to a certain ratio, while technology was shared. Jingguo also promised to try not to attract talents from various countries.
At the beginning, countries did not agree.
However, countries have forgotten that many big families and big businessmen have numerous workshops, workers and scholars under their control. What they value most is not the loss of national talent, but money and technology.
Therefore, big businessmen and big families from all over the country directly bypassed the imperial courts of various countries and started cooperation with Jing State.
The matter was done and the other countries had no choice but to agree to cooperate with Jing State.
Under Fang Yun's conscious control, the technological exchanges among the ten countries began to accelerate, and the overall strength of the human race began to increase, but Jing Country gained more benefits.
The final verdict on the Dingfu Rebellion was soon announced.
King Kang was found guilty of harboring traitors, and his entire family was executed.
Among the tens of thousands of officials and runners in Dingfu, thirty-four people and their entire families were beheaded, and the rest were either executed, exiled to ancient places never to return, sent to the frontier, or transferred to other places to grow crops.
All those who were bribed by King Kang to participate in looting, smashing and burning were executed along with their entire families, including the 77 leaders, and the rest were all put to death.
The execution ground in Dingfu City was filled with blood and energy, and every household in the city was closed.
It took three full days for the bloody smell lingering in Dingfu City to dissipate.
On the day when the ringleader of the Dingfu Rebellion was executed, the Crackdown Division drew up a long list that included many families of the Jing Kingdom. Behind each family, the serious crimes committed by important figures of the family were noted.
There are a total of 106 families on the list, including one wealthy family.
The list horrified Panorama Country.
There are only five states and one capital in Jing Kingdom, and there are no more than two thousand families that can be called families. Today, so many families were sentenced at once, and all of them were given heavy sentences. Some important figures such as the head of the family were directly executed, and some were exiled to the border. This is unprecedented in the history of the human race.
Most of these families participated in the siege of the Jingguo Palace and local government offices, and many were convicted of treason.
In short, one hundred and six families completely disappeared from Jing State.
Afterwards, the Strike Force announced that from now on, some families would be allowed to confess their crimes, and those who confessed would be given leniency, while those who resisted would be given severity, and the Strike Force would appropriately reduce their punishment. If they still resisted after ten days, their crime would be aggravated.
Obviously, the Crackdown Division believes that the disappearance of 106 families is enough to shock everyone, and there is no need to continue to use such drastic measures. Next, maintaining the stability of Jing State is the top priority.
The methods used by the Strict Strike Force and the Criminal Court frightened many family heads, and many of them even went to various government offices overnight, knelt down and confessed their crimes. Some even wrote a confession letter, put their fingerprints on it, and then committed suicide at home.
