The Jia family in Xiangling is currently headed by Jia Xi, who is more than 70 years old and has focused on educating his children and nephews in the township since the Qianghu Rebellion and the disaster of the party.

For example, Jia Kui lost his father at an early age, and his grandfather Jia Xi cared for him, which influenced him to set up his ambition to defend Qing and Huo Quai, and taught him to learn the art of war and administrative skills. At present, he led the Jia family to cut off contact with the Xiongnu and adopted a welcoming attitude towards Tong Yuan's dreadnought army.

Jia Kui was active in the previous battle of Hedong, taking the initiative to lead his troops to surrender the Baibo defenders and devote himself to Tong Yuan's side. Tong Yuan summoned him and Jia Xi to Linfen County to participate in this discussion.

This time, the Fan family from Yicheng Township in Jiangyi County arrived for the first time. Wei Qi introduced that the Fan family came to Fan Xian, the eldest son of the head of the family, who read through the classics and was good at military affairs, and had been guarding the peace of the county all these years.

Tong Yuan looked at Fan Xian's strong body and was older than himself, so he probably had some martial arts skills. But Fan Xian didn't want to pay much attention to him, and said hello a little in the corner, and didn't say anything more.

It turned out that he was similar to Wang Yun and others, thinking that the chaos of the Han Dynasty was because the army was in the hands of the border villains, and his ambition was to master the elite soldiers and horses by the famous families of the scholar clan and stabilize the world, so he regarded Tong Yuan as similar to Li Le, but he was forced to cooperate reluctantly.

As for the Liu family, although the current influence cannot be compared with the Pei, Wei, and Jia families, Liu Fu also actively participated this time, and nearly 1,000 people from the subordinate family and the tribe participated in the recapture of the Yi family and Anyi. This time, we also convened and arranged important duties.

Tong Yuan looked at the Hedong Wang clan gathered around him, and knew that in addition to his strong military strength, there was also the reason why Weiyang Jun opened the mansion and implemented tax reductions himself.

In the past few days, he learned that the Hedong Shi clan is really not simple, and they originally monopolized the vast iron mines, salt ponds, textile workshops, and north-south trade in the north, and they can fully comply with the tax reduction and further expand their investment in this area.

Tong Yuan said: "Recently, the dreadnought army has focused on the north and east, and materials are still hoarded in Pishi, Puban and other places. Zhang Ji has sent someone to hand over, Hebei County to our ministry jurisdiction, our ministry this time to provide a batch of food and property as a reward, in the future to reach a long-term alliance, strengthen Fenglingdu, restore a large number of trade between Hedong and Hongnong. ”

Wei Qi, Pei Zheng, Jia Kui and others all showed joy on their faces, and the Sili area has been chaotic in recent years, resulting in the loss of income of the Hedong Wang clan.

This time, if Hongnong in the south connects Wancheng, Xiangyang, and Jingzhou, and then transports the goods from Lishi, Taiyuan, Hetao, and Yinshan here, then Hedong will really grasp the bloodline of this land.

The Hedong Wang clan officially joined Tong Yuan's chariot, and Tong Yuan would also be bound to their interests to a certain extent and influence each other.

After discussion, the Taishou of Hedong County is still held by the former Taishou Wangyi. It is planned to appoint Wei Qi as the East Cao Peng of Weiyang Junfu and concurrently serve as the governor of Hedong County. These two people are also the first and second leaders of Hedong County.

Wei Qi is not only proficient in civil affairs, but also very good at military and border affairs, and it is more than enough to hold these two positions at the same time.

Because of his outstanding performance and his ability to do military affairs, Jia Kui appointed him as the county commander of Linfen County, a large county. This place is close to his hometown of Xiangling, and he must prepare for the follow-up battle, so it is more appropriate to choose him as the post.

Jia Kui's brother-in-law, Liu Fu, served as the magistrate of Yishi County, which had 2,000 households, and specially asked him to develop the Lianshui waterway to ensure the smooth flow of salt transportation and freight.

Tong Yuan originally wanted to invite Jia Xi, the head of the Jia family, to serve as an important position in the county, but Jia Lao said that Jia Kui was enough to represent that he was really old, and it was more appropriate to focus on the education of children in the township.

When he heard this, he had a whim, and said: "Jia Laoxiang Middle School has made remarkable achievements in education, and the younger generation also wants to understand learning, I wonder if it can be passed on to the younger generation, or let your subordinates learn the content and methods of education from you?"

Everyone felt strange for a while, Tong Yuan was born in the son of a frontier haoqiang, and he was actually interested in the education of the scholar family.

Jia Xi has extremely rich experience, but he didn't expect that Tong Yuan, one of the leaders of the Xiliang Army, would attach so much importance to the content of educating his children in the countryside. Although each family's family education has a certain secret, most of them can certainly be told to the lord of the ruler.

So he replied: "The general is really old, and he really doesn't dare to teach in person." However, some classics and teaching methods at home can be used as a reference for the general, and many of the contents are about literacy, conduct, side affairs, physical fitness, horseback riding and archery, etc., which are suitable for promotion. ”

The Jia family has arranged it here, but the Pei family is a little difficult to do.

The most prosperous Pei family, there are already many clans serving as local officials, as Pei Zheng and Pei Ji, who remain in charge of Wenxi's family, must be appointed to important positions, but it is best not to be in the place.

After some discussion, Pei Hui, who was proficient in both metaphysics and science, served as the right Cao Peng of Weiyang Junfu.

Pei Ji, who was good at handling various local livelihood affairs, served as the Jin Cao Shi of Weiyang Junfu, specializing in the excavation and management of iron mines and salt ponds in the territory, and was responsible for the dredging of domestic shipping together with Liu Fu.

As for Wei Gu and Fan Xian, their performance is not outstanding, and their abilities are estimated to be very average. In the end, Wei Gu was appointed as the county governor of Hedong, responsible for the affairs of persuading the peasants, and Fan Xian served as the county lieutenant of Anyi, responsible for managing the affairs of the county soldiers.

The two men were slightly unhappy in their hearts, and they looked at each other, and then remained silent.

Such an appointment runs counter to the "Three Mutual Laws" that the imperial court proposed that people from local origins should not govern the local area in order to limit local influence.

In fact, the "three mutual laws" are already on the verge of collapse in the case of etiquette. Tong Yuan, as a warlord, simply ignored this order and directly appointed them, and the effect of winning them over was remarkable.

Everyone present has already held positions, and Tong Yuan remembered that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Cao Cao's Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others joined, they recommended a group of talents.

Therefore, he also asked everyone to recommend talents, especially those who have ambitions and talents, but are not reused.

Jia Kui took the lead and said: "I have a good friend, surnamed Sun Mingzi, the word Yanlong, and a native of Taiyuan Zhongdu. His parents died when he was three years old, and his brother and sister-in-law raised him. ”

Later, he entered Taixue and was appreciated by Situ Wang Yun because of the same county and served as the county commander. Before he arrived, his hometown suffered from Xiongnu and other military disasters, coupled with Dong Junnu and General Tong's army to kill Wang Yun for revenge, he temporarily lived in the countryside. ”

Speaking of this, he specifically looked at Tong Yuan's reaction, most of the scholars in this state had received Wang Yun's favor, what attitude would he take?

The atmosphere of the Han Dynasty has always been laissez-faire and even supportive of revenge for loved ones, Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, and Dong Bai and others took revenge and killed Wang Yun, which was taken for granted by most people at that time. But the scholars who were once close to Wang Yun, do they dare to use it?

Wei Qi, Pei Hui and others focused on Tong Yuan to see if he had this belly.

Tong Yuan almost didn't hesitate, and said: "No problem, I told Weiyangjun that we mainly value talent and ambition in employing people, and of course such talents are welcome."
